Episode 90 – Academy Defense Battle (2)

‘In the end, I couldn’t apologize to Dina.’

I couldn’t even come closer, let alone apologize.

He even ran out as soon as he heard the bell for the last period….

“Haa… ….”

I let out a deep sigh and trudged along the busy streets.

“Huh?”

I noticed a strange thing.

‘There are so many people I’m seeing for the first time?’

It doesn’t mean that I’m friendly with everyone in Star City.

However, most of the people who often see their faces in Star City will run into each other at least once.

Whether it’s something you happen to be having a conversation with, or just casually passing each other.

To that extent, Star City is closed and does not accept outsiders well.

But even on this street right now, the number of people I see for the first time is over 20.

Besides…….

‘All of them are strong.’

Some people look like wizards, while others look like swordsmen.

The weakest person has the same skills as me, and the strongest person… It gives off a similar feeling to when facing Garlowen.

‘… A strong person with similar skills to Garlowin?’

Judging from the fact that he is wearing a sword at his waist, he doesn’t seem to be a great wizard like Garlowin.

It seems unmistakable that he is at least an Awakener with skills comparable to that of Garlowin.

‘What happened?’

Even when I open the [Sixth Sense], I don’t feel any hostility from them.

Rather, they set up a lot of thorns and are wary of something.

As if to protect this place from something.

‘What is about to happen?’

The fact that people of this level are gathered together and vigilant means that there is a possibility of a similar danger.

I don’t know what’s going on, but something is about to happen that’s out of my knowledge.

Even if this world is [Akanak Castle] Instead of [Oeyeongdo], Not all the knowledge I know will be useless.

However, it seems that what is about to happen must be clearly outside my knowledge.

Unknowingly, my nerves were on edge and I developed the [Sixth sense] Stronger than usual.

And the first thing I felt.

‘It’s unfamiliar.’

Everything felt unfamiliar.

It’s not that there are many strangers.

The atmosphere, the air, and even the magical energy of this place were unfamiliar.

From noble mtl dot com

I can feel that not only strangers, but also the people working in the store are on edge as if they are wary of something.

Presumed to be of that unknown ‘something’.

I can feel the thick and sticky, ugly and disgusting feeling that makes me breathless.

Even the surrounding magical energy is changing little by little.

Is it because the feeling of magic has changed?

Every movement of the body feels awkward, different from usual.

As if I am a person from another world, not this world.

As if the world wanted to reject me.

Like I can’t even move freely here.

But it didn’t stop there.

Magical power continues to change its form.

It becomes heavy and holds onto the body with a sticky feeling as if trying to impede movement.

‘What?’

At the same time, against my will, the activated purple star began to rotate.

Purple mana spreads throughout my body, and every time I move, the uncomfortable feeling is relieved.

Although I still felt a bit reluctant to move.

That level was limited to the sense of resistance felt when trying to move one’s body in the water.

However, it seems that other people are different from me.

“Damn it, my body doesn’t move as it pleases.”

People who appeared to be knights were frowning as if they were displeased.

“What, what is this….”

People who appeared to be wizards were waving their hands in the air and trying to do something.

“Magic power doesn’t move on my own!”

‘Damn it.’

Because the magical power of this place has changed, it has become difficult to move the magical power.

If this is the case, having them here is of no use.

What can wizards and knights who cannot use magic do against their enemies?

If the whole of Star City is in this situation, Dina probably cannot use magic either.

However, one thing I have a question about is that I am far more free from magical restrictions than they are.

If there’s anything you can expect.

‘Is it because of the purple star?’

As soon as the mana started to tighten my body, the purple star started spinning by itself and the restrictions became less.

At that time, a setting came to mind.

The mana of those who have received the ‘Blessing of the Stars’ is higher than most mana.

Of course, if it collides with other magical powers, the magical power of the person who received the ‘Blessing of the Stars’ will gain the upper hand.

If that setting applies to magic power in Star City now, it means that my magic power is of a higher rank than the magical power that has strangely changed, so there are less restrictions.

It’s not normal magical power, so I feel a bit repulsive.

‘It’s fortunate.’

If this thought is correct, then I am not the only one who can function normally in this academy.

Rather, there are people who are less subject to magical restrictions than me.

Hero, Stia.

She will also be able to move normally, so at least she won’t have to worry about having to block enemies by herself.

Wow!

Then something crashed from above.

Then, something in the shape of a beast rushed at me.

“Whoa!”

I took out my sword from the subspace bracelet and thrust it at the guy who instinctively rushed at me.

But the beast evaded the sword by twisting his body in a bizarre movement.

Chow!

Not completely.

An animal with a long wound on its side glared at me.

I couldn’t help but swallow my saliva at those eyes.

Is it because you look fierce? You’re welcome.

It’s because he has so many f*cking eyes.

‘f*ck. Is it a Chimera again?’

It’s not a normal creature even at first glance.

At first glance, it looks like a wolf, but its face is packed with dozens of eyes, and its mouth is wide open in four directions.

Inside it is packed with sharp teeth like blades.

Besides.

Shupak!

From its mouth, tentacles with small blades at the end shoot at me at high speed.

It was a speed that normal people could not follow with their eyes, but fortunately I have a [Sixth sense].

As my mana evolved into a purple star, my [Sixth sense] Also evolved anew.

Before that, if it ended up just amplifying the five senses.

Now, I can know ‘sensibly’ which way to move will be the best move.

When the wrist holding the sword is slightly twisted, the sword rotates.

The spinning sword lightly slashed the tentacles.

Slowly!

The tentacle hit the sword and bounced off, cutting off the tentacle in a moment of hesitation.

By condensing mana into the tip of the sword.

I stabbed my sword at the wolf that was away.

Purple flashes shoot out like flashes.

Two-thick!

The wolf’s claws were pierced by the purple light and exploded without leaving any shape.

And the confirmed wolf’s body…….

‘As expected, it’s a Chimera.’

You can tell just by looking at the remaining corpses.

Because the body parts of various monsters and beasts were combined.

‘What about other people?’

When I finally looked around, there were already a lot of chimeras around here.

“f*ck!”

The only one who can fight here is me.

However, it is impossible to protect all the people scattered here and there from the chimeras.

“Ah!”

When I heard a scream coming from somewhere, I turned my head and saw a wizard who was screaming with his butt on the floor.

I saw a chimera with its huge mouth wide open.

‘No!’

The distance is too far. It was too late to run right now or to prepare the spear.

The chimera’s gigantic mouth began to close rapidly as it approached the wizard.

Unknowingly, I closed my eyes tightly.

However, the sound I hear is not the terrible sound of flesh being torn apart.

Slowly!

It was the sound of being cut by a sharp blade.

When I quietly opened my eyes, the body of the chimera, whose mouth was wide open, had stopped.

It split in half and fell on its side.

And behind it was a swordsman with a level of strength similar to that of Garlowin.

My brain stopped spinning for a moment in an incomprehensible situation, but I soon understood why that person was able to wield the sword.

Unlike magicians who use magic by combining the magic within the body with a large amount of mana.

What the swordsmen use is mostly magic within their bodies.

Of course, swordsmen also need a small amount of mana, but now this strange magical power only made it difficult to move, not that it made it impossible to move.

It is much freer from restrictions than a wizard using magic.

That means, at least swordsmen can fight.

Of course, it will be much more restrictive than me, but that alone is a huge help.

Looking around again, swordsmen drew their swords in unison and cut down the Chimera.

‘Yes, this is it!’

No matter how crazy this world is, I won’t create a crazy situation where only Stia and I can fight and defend Star City.

The spark of hope that I thought had faded is starting to show again.
