The most common job in the academy (4)

The punitive force, which departed early the next morning, arrived at its destination in the evening.

The students, exhausted from the long journey, tumbled off their horses and gathered beside the escort.

On the other hand, the kingdom army and adventurers, who are elite in their own way, line up without showing any fatigue.

I’d like to spend the night and rest like this, but to reduce casualties, it’s better to ambush in the middle of the night.

This is the home ground of the bandits, so if you attack easily, you will be seriously injured.

Fortunately, the students were not given such an important task.

They played a role in forming an encirclement at the rear of the front line, and even that, the Royal Knights stand firm in front.

This field experience is not intended to use students in earnest.

It is enough for them to feel the atmosphere of the real battle.

“I didn’t know practice would be this hard.”

“I feel like I ran out of energy before I even fought.”

Rosefeld and Illesis were assigned seats, a rare complaint.

Chris and the girls were tasked with casting night vision spells on soldiers and adventurers prior to forming a siege.

Before the mission, Chris cast the spell on himself and was amazed.

His eyes affected by the spell amplify very faint light and project it onto the retina.

Then the forest, which had been just dark, looked like broad daylight.

It’s not that difficult, but it’s a spell that has a great tactical advantage.

It was because of these things that Chris wanted to learn magic.

Thanks to the recovery of the status window, the destructive power that was lacking was supplemented.

However, like magic, there are few powers that can be useful both in battle and in life.

“thank you.”

“Thank you, student. Do you want to get a job at our party when you graduate?”

The adventurers and soldiers who received the spell greeted each other and went back to their seats.

In fact, adventurers of that level might be able to use spells on their own, but it’s better to conserve your strength as much as possible since you’re about to face a real battle.

Soon, the subjugation team, recalling the strategy, slowly began to enter the forest.

But Chris knew.

The officers of the Green Brotherhood must have already left.

The mercenaries, who had moved much more stealthily than this time, also made a fuss against them.

Of course, I couldn’t have all that many people run away, so I’m sure I can catch the small ones.

However, the leader of the bandits will run away and create widows and orphans again.

The Green Brotherhood has survived that way.

‘I should be able to catch them if I organize a pursuit team now.’

Chris thought about it, but kept his mouth shut.

Right now, if there were enough forces to organize as a pursuit team, all of them were cavalrymen, the Royal Knights, but they would not leave the side of the escort target no matter what.

Chris had neither the confidence nor the desire to convince them.

Instead, he sneaked back and climbed on top of the ghost horse.

The Royal Knights and students were on the alert to catch any fugitives, so they didn’t notice his actions.

Even if they were caught, they wouldn’t say anything out loud unless they went into the forest.

“let’s go.”

As Chris spoke softly, the ghost horse that melted into the sound dimension began to move without sound.

Chris runs so fast that he flinches, as if to say he’s been frustrated with keeping pace with the other horses.

Chris, who went down the mountain in an instant and ran through the meadow, soon found the fugitives.

The bandits, numbering about 10 or so, were running away with a lot of valuables even while in a hurry.

It’s probably because he’s been training for this kind of situation ever since.

‘Even though he’s a bandit, he buys hard. That’s why I survived until now.’

The leader of the Green Brotherhood was a famous general from a fallen kingdom.

Of course, he is now a bandit, but it seems that the jjambab has not disappeared anywhere.

Chris caught up with them in an instant with the help of the Ghost Horse.

‘Ten is a bit too many… If I catch the boss, there will be no problem.’

In fact, it’s not like Chris is risking his life to subdue the bandits.

Even though it’s a bad relationship during the adventurer days… It wasn’t Chris who was killed by them, but his partners.

In addition, it could not be seen as a very close relationship with the sacrificed partners.

The reason he came here after leaving the punitive force was for a slightly different reason.

The bandit leader, who was running away, slowed down for a moment when he noticed that there was only one opponent.

The difference in speed between them was obvious, so it was obvious that no matter how much they ran, they would not be able to shake off Chris.

The boss, who looked relatively clean for a bandit, asked him.

“Who are you! What kind of guy is that, he chases us fearlessly!”

It’s dark at night, so it’s hard to see, but it’s still possible to tell the size of a teenage boy.

But the Green Brotherhood, masters of escape, never let their guard down, even with the little boy.

They knew from long experience that the most dangerous thing was to relax while on the run.

Chris admired their professional attitude and activated the power of the status window.

“Ideal Sword, Sword Demon’s Fury.”

This fight is not for revenge, but for a real test.

Now that I think about it, he had never fought a proper fight after getting the status window.

Opponents of this level would be able to conduct performance experiments relatively safely.

I was a little sorry for treating people like lab rats, but… … .

It was strange for them to harbor remorse since they were not some kind of good petit bourgeois, but bandits who ate people’s backs.

When the skill was activated normally through vocalization, bluish energy appeared on the sword Chris was holding.

In addition, vitality surged from the whole body, and the recovery of magical power was also accelerated.

Sword Demon possesses a number of useful and powerful self-buffs instead of poor offensive skills.

The bandits were astonished at Chris’ unusual appearance and giggled.

“for a moment. Isn’t that bastard a player or something?”

“Have you ever seen a player that young? Even if you’re a player, it’s no big deal to kids like that!”

“Let’s deal with it quickly and go on our way.”

A few impatient bandits opened fire with crossbows, but Chris had expected it, so it was no problem.

Seeing the arrows flying at her, the ghost horse quickly jumped aside.

He was so agile that he didn’t even have to evade a simple arrow with a negative dimension.

“good. you’re getting some rest Tailwind sprint, ghost rush.”

Chris, who jumped from the top of the ghost horse, activated an approach skill.

At the same time that his steps became noticeably lighter, Chris’ new model disappeared for an instant and rammed one of the bandits with his shoulder.

Even if it was a simple approach, it was a skill, so the opponent’s chest caved in and his ribs were broken.

The objects he was carrying fell to the ground, making a loud noise.

In the middle of the bandits panicked by the death of a colleague, Chris freed the energy that had been confined to the sword body.

As the blue sword savagely swept the surrounding space, the bandits who were forming a rank for shooting were sliced away at once.

The bandits, who had lost most of their power in just one breath, were visibly agitated and made a belated escape.

As expected, the masters of escape acknowledged by both themselves and others.

Chris looked down at his sword, again admiring their sense of danger.

Sword Demon’s signature buff, the Daily Sword, greatly increases the range as well as the power of the attack, but its duration is so short that it disappears with just one blow.

He recalled the Sword Demon’s skill list and selected one of the few active skills.

“Half-moon.”

As he shouted the name of the skill and drew his sword horizontally, the legs of the horses scattered in all directions were cut in an instant.

Compared to the skills of the players, the power was low and the range was narrow, but it was very cold against these guys.

Chris secretly stuck out his tongue as he watched the guys fall from their sprinting horses.

‘This is really no joke.’

Was the battle this easy?

Even if the opponent is weak, if the ratio is about 10 to 1, no matter how strong the opponent is, no matter how strong he is, he cannot be caught off guard.

Even if he possesses enormous magical power, he could die if he gets stabbed in the back.

However, the authority provided by the status window destroyed such common sense.

Thanks to the health bonus, there is no need to worry about minor injuries.

Enemies far away are also swept away with one skill.

This is the level of the Sword Demon class with comparatively poor offensive skill performance.

If I had fought with a proper class, it would have been organized in one or two skills.

Because of this, even the disabled people who only played games in the corner of the room deserve to have unfounded confidence.

Of course, Chris was well aware of the power of the status window, but using it himself felt very different.

The realization of how much power you have gained.

It makes me feel like an idiot for intending to summon an epic item.

If you have this much power, even your own plans are not empty dreams.

Feeling good about the new realization, Chris wholeheartedly finished off the fallen bandits.

His sympathy had dried up a long time ago, and he had no desire to save the person who witnessed his secret.

The bandits, who had fallen off their horses and rolled on the ground, could not properly escape from him.

The bandits died screaming in the moonlight.

It was quite nice to see those who killed and coerced other people’s mothers and found their own mothers.

The boss, who finally faced his own end, looked at Chris and laughed dejectedly and spit it out.

“Are you a player again? foreigner. How far are you going to ruin my life!”

Apparently, the kingdom he was originally in was destroyed because of the players. Chris laughed at the fallen general and shook his head.

“I’m sorry about the people of our world messing around in your neighborhood, but you shouldn’t be saying that.”

What do you say about the subject of living with your own people at your back?

If you’re going to complain like that, you should at least be proud of yourself.

The leader of the Green Brotherhood lowered his head for a moment at Chris’ words, then gnashed his teeth again.

After all, people put their own circumstances first.

If he had been a great man who would now repent of his sins, he would not have engaged in banditry in the first place.

Chris didn’t waste any more time and slapped his neck.

After completing all the work, he quietly climbed onto the ghost horse.

By the time he returned to the subjugation party, the operation had already ended.

The bandits who lost their heads were helpless in the midnight attack.

Using low-ranking subordinates as bait to give them time to flee is the main escape strategy of the Green Brotherhood.

Because of this, most of the bandits were sleeping until the subjugation team came right in front of them.

The adventurers and soldiers who came down from the mountain were amazed at the escape skills of the officers.

“Wow, seeing these kids run away is one of the best.”

“How did you know we were coming?”

No matter how fast the Ghost Horse was, most people didn’t even notice Chris was gone.

While the members were busy cleaning up.

Illesis, who managed to notice his absence, asked quietly.

“Raiden. Where have you been?”

“I came to see some business. I don’t think we have anything to do anyway.”

“It is, but… … .”

Chris groaned, avoiding her eyes.

Illesis was about to say something to Chris, but then shut her mouth.

It was hard for her to give advice to him because she had been indebted to Chris during this field training.

Chris is the son of a great lord with a vast territory, so he must have had some experience subjugating bandits.

Of course, how accustomed a 13-year-old would be if he was accustomed to human hunting.

Illesis just believed Chris’ usual appearance.

Chris was grateful for her silence and helped clean up with the other students.
