There Are Too Many Bugs in the Academy

Episode 66

22. Demon King’s Reverb (4)

thump thump.

There was a pungent smell along with the sound of a fire pit. It’s like burning dried squid.

‘They say that the West thinks that the smell of squid is the smell of burning corpses, but that was true.’

I watched the prince of the corrupted land fairy fade away as he recalled the shocking facts.

“Lionor, my wretched foe… you are making me experience another death in the end.”

There was a groan mixed with a screwed-out moan in the middle.

He had less than half of his face left.

【There is no next time. As promised, only ashes will remain.]

“It was a tough affair. Only now are you returning to the earth. It’s ephemeral.”

Aaron Nortonhale made a candid voice.

“New warrior, what are you hiding?”

“What? Me?”

Eyes that were slowly losing their light looked towards me.

What are you hiding?

I couldn’t understand English.

“I have a strong reverberation coming from me. This is something only we know. Who the hell are you?”

“It’s a white cow of the Eastern Federation.”

“Is it the Eastern Federation? It is indeed a mysterious place. This time, let’s start a new history from the east a…”

Foul!!

It was a guy who was disappearing anyway, but Lioner’s Lightning strike put an end to it.

【It must have been a useless story anyway.】

The firepower of the eternal fire, which had continued to burn, was also noticeably weakened. After a while, the knocking stopped completely.

The darkened skin regained its original color again.

The curse is gone.

As much as I was hit with Ice Breath, even if a slight frostbite remained.

Compared to the pain I had felt before, it was on a very minor level.

‘finished.’

As soon as that thought occurred, an electric shock surged through my head and a dizzying headache came over me.

The tingling vertigo begins to diminish the strength of the legs.

“Ugh…”

“Sanwoo!”

I staggered, Illyana urgently supported me.

【It is the recoil of the lightning strike. I’ve released my powers while still lacking, so it’s worth it.]

“it’s okay?”

Illyana rummaged through her pockets and pulled out a red elixir.

It’s not a potion, it’s an elixir.

“drink.”

“Can I eat this?”

“hurry.”

Illyana opened the lid and brought the Elixir to my mouth.

Since he didn’t even have the strength to raise his hand, Illiana almost gave her food.

There was a feeling that the energy that had completely hit the floor was slowly recovering.

“It must have been expensive.”

“Sanwoo, you are more important.”

Illyana always looked fierce, but the way she looks at me now is sincere.

I replied with a bitter smile at that.

“Thank you.”

Perhaps she’s not worried about me, but about Lioner’s contractor Baek Sanwoo.

It’s because she doesn’t seem interested in anything except for spirits.

‘By the way, what the hell happened.’

I turned my head to look at the monsters who had been suppressed. They were struck by Illyana’s paralysis bomb, and were still unconscious.

‘I’ve never heard of an event like this, I’ve never done it.’

In hindsight, it was only at the end of the second act scenario.

The story of the liberation front infiltrating the gold mine, releasing Arachne and resurrecting the fallen land fairy who was sleeping inside, did not exist in the main story.

I didn’t even know that such a legend was entangled in the gold mine in the first place.

‘Is it possible that the quest or episode was added while editing Missingno?’

I suddenly had a thought.

After all, the story of the prince of the fallen land fairy was also heard from the Lioner.

‘The two seemed to have known each other before.’

I materialized and looked at the honey badger smelling the ashes.

A Lioner who holds his nose and hates it when he is in charge.

‘When I get back, I’ll have to look for related books together with Lioner. It can’t be done if it affects the main episode in any way.’

He barely got it back on track until the huge event called the Pan-College Dalian Tournament was held.

It had to be stopped somehow. certainly!

‘But it’s not really a drug prank. Is it also an elixir?’

After recovering to a level where I could move to a certain extent, I recovered Aradwa, which had been scattered on the ashes, and looked at the crown, the remaining loot.

“Isn’t there a magic stone?”

【It must be true that she is an undead in the true sense of the word. Because it’s not a ‘monster’ that can survive without conditions.]

“Ugh.”

He had a hard time with his opponent, and when I listened to the story, he seemed like a guy who had a good time in the old Demon King’s Army.

In proportion to that, I expected to be able to trade Manastones at a higher price, but… … .

I’m left alone

I didn’t have high emotional skills, so I could only know a fragmentary grade.

I was purely perplexed.

“…?”

Because emotions were impossible.

No matter how bad things are, it is a corporation that is divided into Ruins and Normals.

The crown did not know the grade itself at all.

“Hey, Lioner. Do you know what this is?”

【This crown was granted only to the strongest and greatest of the ancient land fairies. Artifact paper made by processing the crystal on the back.]

“ah.”

I thought of ‘body modification’, a characteristic of the land fairies.

Like Artel, which borrows the setting of a general elf, the land fairy is a race very similar to the dwarf depicted in general fantasy.

However, on Paradise Island, except for Ars Longa, you can hardly see land fairies.

This was because most of their races on the continent were either corrupted or annihilated.

Did I mention that they are still surviving as a tribal unit rather than a nation?

‘If you just listen to it, it’s almost legendary. Why can’t you feel it?’

I looked around the crown and touched the inside.

It was certain that something powerful was imbued, but it was impossible to tell exactly what kind of effect it was.

“I’m going to take this to a professional appraiser.”

I tucked the crown into the bag.

The loot obtained from Arachne was placed in advance through the members, so the space itself was ample.

【I don’t feel any particular curse.】

“just in case.”

Also, if you can’t use it, you can sell it or donate it to a school.

The moment I thought so.

“Sanwoo, people are here.”

The sound of urgent footsteps was heard from nearby.

At the entrance connected to the dungeon’s boss room, firmly armed faculty and students.

and. Dean Irkhan Bradamante was standing there.

* * *

– Dean, something big has happened. According to the testimonies of students who just got out of the gold mine… … .

Upon receiving the first emergency report, Dean Irkan quickly disarmed and descended towards the gold mine.

There was no time to wait for the manpower and faculty dispatched from the dungeon management department.

The missing dungeon manager has died, and the cause is the tarantula and the spider queen, who have had an abnormality in the gold mine.

It was because it was a very dangerous situation with only fragmentary information.

‘… … Please stay safe.’

I heard that Baeksanwoo and Iliana Noel were left inside.

Even though both of them are quite talented, they are still students. In a situation that is completely treated as ‘out of the topic’ like now, there is nothing else to do.

Even right now, haven’t you heard the report that the five Artel members were captured and rescued by the Queen Spider?

If the report had not come up in time, they would all have been found cold dead.

So Irkan ran.

You don’t even need to use a railcar. Because my feet were faster than that.

It kicks the ground and cuts through the darkness. A warm light emanating from his sword illuminated the chilly dungeon.

In the midst of it, he could find traces of the Baeksan-woo and Illyana.

‘Ilyana went in first, and then Baeksanwoo followed.’

The uncollected manastones and clear footprints were connected to the boss room in Area B.

Traces that have recently been left behind.

At that moment, there was a loud noise that made the whole tunnel tremble.

“…!”

Earthen dust fell from the ceiling fixed with logs, and the shriveled supports could not withstand the impact and were broken.

looming anxiety.

Irkan could not erase the worst from his mind.

Anyway, if this is a boss attack.

It is a shock that can be felt even from a fairly distant distance. Even if Baeksanwoo had excellent skills, he could never survive such an attack.

“Shit!”

He accelerated his steps even more. The darkness could not block Irkhan’s path.

Irkan, who reached the Amethyst Tunnel, the boss room in Section B in an instant, thoroughly hid his presence.

‘Rescue is after first identifying the opponent.’

It was necessary to avoid having to step forward in haste and injuring the students or the students.

As Irkhan cautiously entered the boss area.

“Aaa!!!!”

One undead was engulfed in fire for eternity and was screaming in pain. Irkan sensed that it was the effect of Eternal Fire.

And in front of him, with his sword drawn, Baeksanwoo, who was facing each other, came into view.

Fortunately, there are no injuries anywhere.

The moment Irkan was about to enter the battle, feeling a sense of pride in his heart towards a new student with a respectable level.

Irkan stopped as if frozen at the resounding voice.

‘What is this spirit? no way… … !’

【Get your posture and push it out! Color the cursed death with my color!!]

Soon, a blue lightning bolt surged from Baeksan-woo’s body.

The power of the spirit is so strong that it distorts the surrounding air. Irkan Bradamante could be sure of the source of that power.

‘Lioner of Noewoong!!!’

The dean was stunned. The Baeksanwoo, engulfed in a runaway lightning bolt, rushes towards the undead at a speed like a flash of light.

A movement that was difficult to catch even with Irkan’s eyes.

Lightning strikes sharply from the vertically raised sword.

“Aaah-!!!

The undead’s body was torn apart with an axe along with a desperate scream.

Arthur’s skill is obvious to anyone looking at it.

Lightning strike, slashing the sky.

Lightning that illuminates the dark tunnel with the sun. Dean Irkan felt goosebumps all over his body.

In addition to that, he also discovered the identity of the undead that Baeksanwoo had cut.

A fertilized body fertilization.

The fluorescent crown on his head completely matched the appearance described in the oral traditions handed down through his family.

It was ‘Prince of the Fallen Land Fairy, Aaron Nortonhale’, who had been slept by his ancestors here in the gold mine.

‘My ancestors said that they killed Aaron together with Lioner.’

The scenes in the oral tradition that I had been reading since childhood were now being reproduced again.

By a freshman boy who used Arthur’s swordsmanship and signed a contract with Lioner Noewoong.

‘no.’

The person standing in front of him wasn’t anything like a freshman at Nakwon School, Arthur’s Faculty.

Truly-

The advent of Arthur Bradamante incarnation.

In the depths of his heart, Irkan had no choice but to stand still for a while.
