Chapters 106 – 105. Way to You (5)
A day after Leopold left the academy, rumors spread.
Although the academy is large, the first year’s range of action couldn’t be that wide, so it’s normal for rumors to spread quickly, but Leopold’s movements were unusually fast, so the rumors couldn’t keep up with it.
Leopold’s formidable behavioral ability, which met with the principal during the day to obtain permission and left the academy right there, was a surprise to the other students, but aroused anger among others.
“Isn’t this pure madness?!”
“Why, I’m just cool.”
Compared to Astain, who was bursting with anger, Veracian was smirking.
“Surely love is great. The power of action is really great. Is that enough to be a crown prince? Thinking and acting at the same time is really daring. I guess it’s much better than missing the timing while thinking like everyone else?”
“… Don’t make fun of me, I can’t afford that right now.”
From the perspective of Veracien, it was strange that Astain was so angry.
It is a barrier that has already been completed.
In order to complete the barrier, she did all sorts of silly things and diverted her instructors’ attention to other places.
In the meantime, she worked on creating a barrier, and now she has created a huge barrier that covers the entire academy.
I did, but I can’t understand why the trigger was left outside, and Astrid and Leopold were both in the academy, so it was an ideal condition, but after wasting time, both left the academy, and now they say they’re working at the academy, but what is that? Is it any use?
“Can’t we just wait a little longer? It’s an academy where you have to attend for 4 years anyway. Can’t we just enjoy school life a little more?”
Haaaaa, Berasien yawned with his mouth open.
Either way, it doesn’t matter now.
Vera Shien was thinking in her head, now she was calculating how long it would take for her to get out of here and go north.
She is no longer seen at the academy.
In the first place, what Astain was trying to do, that is, trying to collect all the blessings of the stars, seemed quite fun, so she only joined in, but it was not as fun as she thought.
‘Leopold and Astrid look more interesting now.’
Is it time for her to terminate the contract soon, or should she use her excuse to terminate it?
If it’s a penalty fee or something, should I separate her head appropriately… While thinking about it, Astain sighed lightly.
“… Where is Miss Akemilla now?”
“I don’t know.”
“Let’s go north as well. It looks like it got caught in a spider’s web anyway, so let’s see the match there. I think that would be better.”
In this case, it was not that she had not thought of it.
Astein is prudent by nature, and she had prepared the best, the second best, the worst, and the worst.
Of all of them, the worst thing happened.
Although it was a waste of resources to put a barrier on this academy, it wouldn’t be possible to regret them now.
Throw it away when you dare to throw it away.
“It went better. It would be better to watch the match on the home ground. I tried to quietly pull out the protection and keep him alive, but it won’t work.”
“Yeah, yeah. You must be.”
Verathien yawned again.
She’s told her that Astein will turn out the way she planned, but she’s never seen it turn out the way it did.
I’ve always seen him get annoyed and lose his temper when something doesn’t go his way, so it was only natural that he didn’t trust Astain’s words.
“So, are you quitting the academy now?”
“Because I don’t have to go anymore. I’ll tell Miss Akemilla too. They need financial support to prepare the wagon right away. And… “
Astain became nervous and signed a hand sign.
Every time her fingers moved, blue flames bloomed and then disappeared, and after the final seal, Astain took out her amulet.
“… I need to buy some time.”
Parruk.
A blue flame bloomed and started burning the amulet.

“Mistake… Say, mistake. Just… Wrong, yes… You said it wrong… “
The bent knee was no longer strong.
The convulsive arm grabbed the handle of the snow flower and struggled to get itself up, but it couldn’t do what it intended.
It’s been a long time since I tore off the cloak that had become tattered, and the uniform that was scratched, burned, and melted here and there was unsightly.
The corpses of the monsters formed a mountain, and the poisonous smoke that rose from the wounds drove them to the point where they couldn’t even breathe properly.
【The day you will die on the battlefield is really coming.】
‘It’s better than falling down the stairs and dying.’
Astrid grabbed her eyes again and rubbed her face.
The cold chill seemed to have brought her to her senses for a moment, but then it filled her head with a hazy mist again.
“Porridge… I don’t like creeping.”
I tried to raise my body by straining my legs, but my knees bent completely against my will, and I fell face down on the snow.
With a groan, Astrid tried to stand up on the ground, but Astrid fell forward and slammed her face into the cold snow.
“On the face… Wounds, then… Leopold will hate… Ten, de… “
【… That’s right.]
That was the last
The real Astrid stared at the sight that was fading into darkness.
You can forcefully change your body if you want.
Then, you might really die, but whether you die like this or die like that, it’s the same anyway.
【Please let me get some sleep.】
Her eyelashes quivered and her closed eyes widened again.
As the real Astrid regained control of her body, she felt the exhaustion that engulfed her body again.
“You fought pretty well in this state. I wonder if it would be better to reveal yourself now.”
Astrid’s eyes were not on the monsters.
Rather, Astrid was staring at the front of the huge tower standing next to her.
Already, she didn’t even pay attention to the monsters around her.
– Did you notice?
“How can you not notice when you are staring at me like that?”
– Huh… Since when did you notice?
“From the middle. These monsters should have a fixed amount, but it’s meaningless to try more. I’d like to come out soon.”
– Hmm… Well, let’s do that
The voice coming from the tower was probably not a real voice.
As Astrid hears now, her voice is the kind of voice that allows her to choose who she wants to give her voice to.
It would be close to similar beings like the real Astrid and the fake Astrid.
A large door appeared on the wall of the tower, which was obviously empty.
The door seems to be made of iron, and it looks rough as there are no patterns on it, but its size is so large that it is too large to give a sense of intimidation to the viewer.
-Koo-gu-gu-gu-gung…
The iron door opened with a heavy sound.
Its weight was as heavy as its size, and even the sound was heavy, and the piled snow was pushed against the door, creating a large snowdrift on either side.
“It’s arrogant to greet guests and not show your face. There seems to be a lack of home education.”
– I’m sorry, but I can’t face you yet.
“You mean come in?”
– You don’t have to come in if you’re scared.
Astrid spat on the ground.
Spitting out red bloody saliva, Astrid picked up the snow flower.
– Alas, you are not allowed to bring weapons. Unfortunately.
“You are more afraid than I thought. Well, I thought that would be the case.”
Astrid, disapprovingly, shoved the snow flower deep into the ground and looked around.
As if to surround her, her demons that surrounded her were growling and groaning, but they did not rush to attack her and just glared at her.
“… Well, it might be better inside than here.”
Moving slowly, Astrid headed for the door.
I don’t know what’s inside, but at least it’s better than dealing with those monsters outside.
The body is now crying out that it is the limit here and there, but the probability is rather high here.
‘… Because I can’t die until I get married to him. It can’t be helped. I’ll have to think about smashing it all from the inside if it’s necessary.’
Astrid stepped inside and the door closed again with a heavy sound.
It was bright and unlike the outside, which was extremely bright thanks to the snow, I was able to adjust to the interior of the tower, which quickly became dark.
“It’s not as wide as it looks from the outside.”
Where is the owner of the voice?
Astrid looked around and started walking.
A joint that can’t be seen as narrow even if it’s not wide.
A large circle was drawn in the middle of the cavity, and inside the circle were filled with unknown patterns.
“What are all these things?”
Something that looks like a water bottle, a clock, a candle, or a constellation.
A huge circle filled with these.
“… I think I saw it somewhere.”
Familiar.
These are things I’ve seen somewhere.
But that doesn’t come to mind.
– You’re comfortable. Right now I have no intention of moving.
“How can you believe that? The guy who asked me to come in with his weapon down is pretty shit.”
– It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it, but make sure you’re comfortable.
“… Joy.”
Just show off
If you do, I’ll give you a smash.
Astrid looked around and moved slowly.
