Chapter 259 – Chapter 259 Hero Academy (3-66)
Seong Soo-ah gasped and hid in a corner of the cave and began to look around him.
“Ha… Ha…. Where did such a monster come from….”
Unlike other monstrous creatures, the one wearing a cape rushed at Seong Su-ah and the others with a scream.
Seong Soo-ah, as she had dealt with until now, kept a safe distance from her and fired magic at the monstrous creature.
However, the magic that touched the strange creature was destroyed in an instant, and she began to use magic as the strange creature rushed at her.
‘Ha… Are the kids okay?’
Seongsuah evacuated the students while canceling the incoming magic with her own magic.
Then, with the attack, he drew the attention of the strange creature, and immediately ran away with the cadets in a different direction.
She was good at drawing attention and being able to entice.
However, since then, Seongsuah has been playing hide-and-seek with the mysterious creature that is chasing her.
It wasn’t that she couldn’t use magic at all, but she had to release strong magic power, but at least she could damage the opponent.
The problem is that the opponent’s magic is stronger….
‘No matter how you think about it, it’s strange. The reason these guys appear so suddenly….’
A visit to the tower, especially to a place where Yeriel and the wise men were directly involved in the attack, was not something that could be sanely done.
‘Who the hell did this….’
The problem was that I couldn’t pinpoint who the opponent was.
All the strange creatures that attacked the consulate were recovered by the church, but they said they couldn’t find any clues.
In the end, there was only one thing that could be identified.
‘Is there a reason why monsters suddenly move like this?’
There was no one who did not know that the monsters were carrying out secret plans that harmed society.
However, if there is something unique about it, there are two organizations that monster groups do not easily touch.
Erica and Top.
It’s not that there’s no friction at all, but it was famous for not touching the two organizations from the side that was suspicious enough to raise suspicion in the world.
And as the period got longer, I was guessing that it was not touching ‘not’, but ‘not’ touching.
That’s what Sung Soo-ah thought too.
Until now….
‘First of all, this place is faster than I thought….’
It was the moment when Seongsuah caught her breath and calmly looked around her again.
“__-▀▄!!”
“Kuk!”
The mysterious creature wearing a cape looked at him and started screaming.
Most of the heroes who have experienced real battles have the ability to roughly gauge the difference in skill with the opponent when they fight.
And Seong Soo-ah was in a state where she roughly estimated her skills with the monster she was facing.
‘Disadvantageous… Mana that shows no signs of diminishing due to non-ideal exorcism! We must avoid a head-to-head match!’
It wasn’t a matter of pride.
It was not a situation to deal with with the complacency of dealing with only one monster.
“Haa!”
Seongsuah immediately pulled up the stones around her and fired them at the monstrous creature after lighting them with fire.
The monster creature, watching the fireball flying with furious momentum, did not stop its speed and was running with the momentum to collide with it.
‘… No way!?’
The magic I threw with the idea of dragging out some time.
“—_-▀▄!!!!!”
The man wearing a cape was running toward Sung Su-ah without slowing down at all, deflecting all the flying fireballs with his bare hands.
Rather, she had created a situation unfavorable to herself with the magic she used to gain her time.
‘This, at this rate!’
There was still plenty of mana, but the speed of the rushing guy didn’t give Sung Soo-ah time to deal with it.
That was the moment when the arm of the strange creature was about to reach Seong Soo-ah’s nose.
Paaang!
A blast sound resounded as if it would collapse the cave, and a ray of light flew toward the monster in a solid yellow line.
Kwajik!
“__———____-!!!!”
The yellow light pierced the creature’s shoulder from the back and flew endlessly, and at the beginning of the stem, someone shouted.
“Instructor Sung Soo-ah! Are you okay!?”
***
By chance, she met the students Seong Soo-ah went with, and she immediately knew the situation she was in.
She and she ordered the cadets to follow the instructor they had just met and escape outside of her as quickly as possible.
In the process, she managed to stop the cadets, including Seo Ji-eun, from clamoring for help, and escaped.
I thought to myself as I headed in the direction the cadets pointed out.
‘I thought the kids would be more depressed than I thought, but they’re from the consulate, so they don’t seem to break down easily.’
The cadets, who were trembling with anxiety while showing helplessness in the beginning, quickly adapted and began to deal with it quickly.
They confirmed their lack of ability, and were trying to do their best in what they could do.
[But I’m worried. If it’s what the cadets say, the opponent seems to be a different kind from the monsters we met earlier.]
‘Even so, I can’t leave Seong Soo-ah….’
Even more so, even if the opponent was really a monster like Yeriel, he couldn’t leave Seongsuah.
Perhaps Armonia was worried after hearing what I said, and started asking my opinion quietly.
[In case you didn’t know, wake Lena now….]
‘No! Don’t do it.’
[However….]
I didn’t want to disturb Lena’s sleep, even if no one else knew.
I didn’t want to wake him up at the time when he was sleeping because of an unknown situation.
‘I’ll act as risk-free as possible, so wait until then.’
[… All right.]
As I was running to find Sung Soo-ah, I heard a loud roar from afar.
It was clearly far away, but I could see small orange sparks bouncing.
However, the visible part was like a splash of burnt ashes.
‘Armonia! Binoculars!’
The light from far away began to enter the lenses of the binoculars I was holding without filtering.
It looked like a guy wearing a cloak was running towards Sung Soo-ah.
I pondered for a while as I hung the superconducting arrow on the bowstring.
‘I can’t go to step 2 at this point.’
No matter how good her aim was, if she used an arrow like that in this narrow cave, Seongsuah could be in danger.
I fired an arrow at him before the faint flames faded.
Faaaaang!!!
As if the arrow had hit the assailant, along with a tremendous banging sound, screams began to echo from afar.
“Instructor Sung Soo-ah! Are you okay!?”
I screamed and picked up her binoculars again to check Seongsu-ah’s condition and checked her condition through the lenses.
And the moment I looked at her with binoculars, I heard Seongsuah’s cry.
“Look out! I’m going that way!”
“This….”
I saw a black new model running into the lens.
‘Damn, did I miss it?’
I couldn’t see his face at all because he was wearing a cape, but I could feel the fury from the way he came running.
It was to the point where I could feel the will to cut my body in half from the momentum of the run.
‘I see that it works. I’d like to take another shot. Armonia, arrows!’
[Yes!]
A superconducting arrow was immediately created, and I immediately pulled lightly and fired the arrow in the first step.
Faaaaang!
This time, it flew towards the strange creature, making a yellow light path with a tremendous banging sound.
The target is the chest.
Until now, monsters would die instantly if they broke the purple jewel in their chest.
It must be the same for that guy….
‘Well then… Solve….’
It was the moment I was about to shoot an arrow and lower my bow.
Paperweight!
“… Yes?”
Obviously, the arrow had to pierce the monster’s chest and fly far away.
By the way….
‘Uh… Is this a fucking dangerous situation?’
After the monster stopped, he caught the arrow flying toward him with his bare hands and smashed it on the spot.
“—__—_____——!!!”
“Uh….”
It was a roar of deep fury that I had never felt before.
He stopped running and screamed, then suddenly stretched out his arms at me and started shooting magic.
As the space distorted in the already dark place, unknown black blades started rushing towards me.
Shasasasasasasasak!
“No, they even use fucking magic!?”
It wasn’t a level of speed that could be avoided.
It was an attack that made me think that if I tried to avoid it, my whole body could be disintegrated.
I immediately activated dismantling and nullified the flying black blades as much as possible.
Most….
Sasak!
“Great!”
Fast speed for many blades.
I could barely get rid of the blades where the critical hit would be applied, but my reaction speed couldn’t keep up, so in some places the blades cut through my body and passed by.
[I will recover right now!]
‘Hurry!’
Unknowingly, out of urgency, I shouted at Armonia.
The wounds on my body started to heal slowly, but the other person reacted faster than that.
“__—__——!!”
“Oh dear!”
It was the moment when he tried to lift the bow with all his might before the wound on his shoulder had completely healed.
“Instructor Seong Su-ho!”
The Quagga River!
“__—___—!!!”
A huge amount of fireballs fell behind the back of the strange creature, and the guy who had been blinded by me collapsed completely covered in fireballs.
Sung Soo-ah flew towards me, driving the wind wildly as if she were riding a board in mid-air.
“Ha… Ha… Gwa, are you okay!?”
“I’m OK. But that guy!”
“Avoid for now! You’re hurt right now, so it’s rather dangerous!”
“Hey, wait!”
Excuse me? I’m getting better right now!?
Seong Soo-ah ignored my words, hugged me, and started to fly away in the wind at great speed.
It felt completely different from the magic that Yeriel used.
If Yeriel felt like floating in the air, Seong Soo-ah felt like she was riding on a board in the wind.
And thanks….
‘Armonia!’
[Yes!]
‘Sung Soo-ah’s panties are black!’
[….]
What a mess….
I was able to experience seeing the inside of Seongsuah’s fluttering skirt.
I never thought that innocent woman would wear black underwear….
I thought to myself while watching the strange creature.
‘Thank you… I won’t forget your sacrifice.’
[… The situation is not over yet.]
‘?’
The monstrous creature, covered in a fireball, looked at us and started shouting.
“—_——!!!”
“….”
What, do you have all these bastards?
I didn’t think I would die, but I didn’t expect to wake up right away.
Even when I first met the purple monsters at the consulate, I thought they weren’t ordinary monsters, but I still felt that they were strong according to common sense.
But that guy wasn’t an elite mob among normal mobs, it just felt like a boss popped up out of nowhere.
Won’t my arrows be snatched with bare hands, won’t it happen even if I get hit directly by Sung Soo-ah’s magic?
However, while he was getting up awkwardly, Seongsuah’s magic made him disappear from sight, and we were able to get out of sight of the monster.
***
After Yeriel exited the dungeon, she began to give instructions to the gathered instructors.
“Let everyone check the number of people.”
“Yes!”
The instructors started to move in perfect order, showing Yeriel a broken look instead of the usual loose look she usually shows.
Yariel, who looked around her, sensed something was wrong with her.
‘I can’t see either….’
I believed in the two and left with the desire to save others, but Seong Su-ho and Seong Su-ah were nowhere to be seen.
And the cadets I had become close with while riding in the car were nowhere to be seen.
‘I can’t Go in again!’
Yeriel was about to leave her personnel check to her instructors and go back into the dungeon.
Cadets and instructors were coming out of the dungeon.
“Ha… Ha… Came out.”
“Those guys… How the hell did it even appear here….”
With a small sigh of relief, Yeriel approached her cadets and asked after her.
“Is everyone okay?”
Yeriel checked her personnel as she watched her cadets and instructors breathe heavily.
‘… Yes?’
However, three people who were supposed to be there were missing.
“… Some people seem to be missing?”
“Ahaha…. I acted randomly in the middle….”
Yeriel asked questions of the cadets, but she answered the questions not from the cadets, but from the plain-faced instructor.
It was the moment when the instructor was about to explain various things to Yeriel, leaving the cadets behind.
One of the cadets jumped out and started shouting at Yeriel.
“Yeriel! Now, the instructors and the author!”
“Wait a minute! I’ll explain, so you stay still….”
“Quiet!”
“Huh!”
In response to Yeriel’s remark, the instructor kept her mouth shut and was silent.
Yeriel asked the cadet as she let go of her expression.
“Please explain step by step.”
..
..
“You mean Instructor Seong Su-ho went in to find Instructor Seong Su-ah, and Cadet Seo Ji-eun broke up because she had a magic attack while being attacked?”
“Yes….”
“Even though the cadets were gone, the instructor forced them to come outside?”
“That, that’s Yeriel-sama! Well, I’m not in charge of that student… !”
As soon as Yeriel heard the answer, he immediately floated in the air, glared at the instructor, and muttered.
“… The reprimand will come later. You might as well pray that the cadet will have no problems.”
“Ugh….”
Yeriel glared at him for a moment, then he shot straight into the dungeon.
