Episode 160
There is a word that is clear at a glance.
It means that the situation is clear enough that you can see it at a glance, and that is exactly what it is now.
There are a total of thirteen people in the room.
There are five big guys with nice faces.
The remaining seven looked haggard, as if they had been starving for several weeks. If it weren’t for the cadet uniform they were wearing, one would mistake them for scavenger hunts.
“Do you think etiquette is important?”
“what?”
“so do i. Actually, that is the difference between humans and animals. Do you know etiquette? “Don’t you know?”
Just because they can communicate doesn’t mean they are human, but did this ignorant-looking guy really understand?
The next moment I realized that it was so.
The cadet immediately shook his fist.
Still, it was still human to get upset over being cursed.
Has my tendency to become violent after being in a closed place for a long time?
Or was he originally like this?
It wasn’t an interesting thought.
Bah!
“Kwaaaak!”
A scream erupted.
The guy who was throwing his fist fell down, clutching his face.
The majority were like this.
Those who cause pain have no tolerance for pain. It’s the f*cking truth.
Of the remaining four, three jumped up, but only one sat down and observed me.
That sight is unsightly. Because, after a long time, I stepped on Ilyeongbo and narrowed the distance. The moment the arrogant cadet’s mouth opened, he grabbed him by the collar as if snatching him away.
“… … !”
In the meantime, I could see his hands struggling. It was a poor response, but the response was amazing.
I think this guy would still be at the lowest level of Youngdo.
Wow.
So, like Skull or Hans.
The fist went deep into the abdomen. I saw wide open eyes.
“I’m going to kill you.”
I even deliberately adjusted my strength, but the reaction was intense.
“Russeau!”
One of the cadets screamed his name.
I think this guy’s name is Rousseau.
I grabbed Rousseau by the shoulders and threw him at the screaming cadets.
Suddenly, the cadet fell down after being hit by Rousseau with his body.
“… … .”
“… … .”
The two people who were still standing just stared at me with a look of shock and did not attack me easily.
I thought so.
They are like hyenas.
A group that simply collapses the moment it loses its leader. I thought the rolling eyes were disgusting.
… perhaps.
If these guys weren’t cadets and had crossed the line a little further, they would have been right here-.
[Yeonja.]
Musin’s soft voice reached my mind coldly.
‘hmm.’
I calmed down my rising anger and shook my head.
I didn’t show it, but I was a little embarrassed.
Even though I’m a mood freak, I don’t think about killing carelessly.
[That’s because it’s the devil’s territory. Maintain your serenity. You must not be swept away by madness.]
‘Then what about these guys?’
[Maybe so. I can’t say they are good people, but they probably weren’t such vicious children originally.]
‘… … .’
In some sense, does this mean that these people are also victims? The steam leaked out.
I spoke briefly.
“You guys distributed food to your seniors, was it Rousseau? “You should come here.”
“Chu, clack…” … .”
“Don’t act too harshly and get up. “Before I get hit one more time.”
Then Russo jumped up and ran straight in front of me.
Fortunately, he was a guy with some sense.
“Explain what’s going on.”
“Well, explain something…” … .”
“From one to ten, everything you know.”
“uh… … .”
I glared at Russo, who hesitated for a moment, and this guy quickly spewed out information as if he had been stabbed at the tip of a knife.
I quietly listened to the story, but I didn’t really get any big results.

Most of it overlapped with what Arin said.
At that time, a cadet who was chewing on an energy bar shouted.
“Well, there was a basement staircase!”
He spoke so hurriedly that he was gurgling as if he could hear it.
I calmly waited for the cadet to drink water and then asked.
“Underground stairs?”
“yes yes. I was so scared that I couldn’t even step in… For some reason, it was a bit hot down there, and there was an unusual atmosphere… … .”
“… … .”
They said the way to leave the building was from the rooftop… In general, the basement is a place far from the exit.
but… … .
This is already the devil’s territory. A place where you shouldn’t be limited by common sense.
I got up from my seat.
I was curious about the basement stairs, but I had work to do first.
“Wait here for a moment.”
“Uh, where are you going?”
Arin was startled and asked me.
At the same time, he glanced at Rousseau, and it seemed like he was worried that if I disappeared, those guys would do their best again.
“don’t worry. “I’ll be back soon.”
It’s true.
No matter how thoughtless these guys are, they won’t repeat their trashy behavior in just a few hours.
At least one day, three or four leisurely days.
If I don’t come by then, he will secretly resume his despicable actions.
Fortunately, my business didn’t take that long.
Grumble.
Immediately after closing the door, take a deep breath… I immediately activated my snake eyes.
‘──.’
Fortunately, the structure of the building is somewhat visible.
‘It’s so wide.’
The once shabby research building is now much larger than several main academy buildings joined together.
The number of floors, which had been two-story, had increased to four.
Beyond the ceiling that separated each floor, I could see masses of heat moving violently.
These are the cadets who are still alive.
There was no time to waste, so we immediately started rescue efforts.
So, five people on the first floor, three people on the second floor, three people on the third floor, and one person on the fourth floor.
A total of twelve cadets were saved.
“Thank you… … . Thank you… … .”
“I was so scared… … .”
“… “I thought I was going to die now.”
Each cadet expressed their gratitude.
There were students who were as scared as Arin, and there were students who were surprisingly calm.
The cadet who was alone on the 4th floor did that.
Looking at the color of his tie, he was in the highest grade.
He was a young man with a dignified appearance, and his name was Jidon.
“Thank you for saving my life. It’s an amazing martial art… … .”
This guy had quite decent skills.
As Arin said, the dolls on the 4th floor were strong, but they were not stuffed toys but ball-jointed dolls.
It made strangely creaky movements, but even in that unpleasant form, it moved quite quickly.
Jidon seemed to have lasted quite a long time while dealing with such dolls.
“The road to the rooftop was very difficult… … . “I think I have to leave this building before I can ask for help.”
“Sir, I’m sorry, but can you please go down to the first floor?”
“hmm?”
I explained the general situation to Jidon. Rousseau and his party are left in power with the oppressed cadets.
Ji Don’s face immediately distorted.
“… This is terrible. As a future knight, this is unacceptable. Got it. “I’ll take charge of that guy named Russo.”
“thank you.”
“But I haven’t asked your benefactor’s name yet.”
“It’s Luan. “First of all, I’m a transfer student.”
“Transfer student? ah! Was he a future hero?”
Jidon smiled brightly and grabbed my hand.
“Before I became a knight, I also dreamed of becoming a hero… … . “I think they are the true heroes of the continent.”
“… … .”
“haha. okay. Yeongdo is safe. “I will leave my work to you.”
It felt like the characters in the system had a particularly strong envy for Heros.
Just as people from the South had envy of the system.
I was a little unfamiliar with that attitude.
Anyway, I headed to the first floor with Jidon and sent the rescued cadets to the cafeteria.
And after seeing that Rousseau’s face had turned pale, I headed toward the basement stairs.
It didn’t take long.
At the very end of the right wing there was a staircase leading to the basement.
“hmm.”
A warm wind rose. The texture is a little different from the heat of the sun.
There was something I could feel besides the heat.
[Yeonja, I sense an unusual instrument.]
Musin quietly warned.
I nodded, then carefully stepped down.
There wasn’t a single ray of light, but it wasn’t dark. A fairly hot flame was coming out from below.
The air gradually became hotter.
Sweat was already forming on my forehead, which was accustomed to the heat.
Eventually, the stairs came to an end.
‘here is… … .’
[It feels like prison.]
It’s as they say.
The unfolding landscape was a dungeon.
But there is no one.
Beyond the iron bars, there was no trace of anyone, let alone any sign of human presence.
First, walk.
Even though we pass through quite a few prisons, the boundaries are not blurred.
It’s just this place. Tiny dolls are hiding there, a good place for a surprise attack.
They didn’t have the presence of living creatures, nor did they possess internal energy or mana, so I had no choice but to rely purely on my senses to respond.
Fortunately, there was no surprise attack until we passed quite a few prison cells… … .
I was finally able to find the first inmate of this prison, the Four Persons.
“… … .”
It was Dean Alderson.
Two chains were tied to each limb, and a blood-red dagger was stuck around the chest.
Did you say that wizards surround their hearts with mana? In that case, the role of the dagger seems to be to seal the magic of the archmage.
‘The real Dean Alderson.’
Not a puppet, but the real head of Cartel Academy.
But I couldn’t move quickly.
A source of heat stood in front of Alderson, who was tied up.
“… … .”
Rumbling… … !
It’s the devil.
I’m sure it will.
However, the heat from the blast was so unusual that it made even the evil instruments blur.
He looked like a black knight whose entire body was covered in armor.
However, he was not wearing a helmet, and there was a red flame swirling where his head should be.
The bright red prominence was not completely contained by the armor and leaked out from the seams.
I thought that if I put black armor on a body made of flame, a monster like that would be born.
[It’s dangerous.]
Mushin muttered in a heavy voice.
He is a martial artist who does not easily take risks.
There was no way to be very surprised other than when the priest announced the return, but there was a bit of confusion in the voice he spoke now.
[That kind of instrument, that kind of power. He must be the commander of a corps directly under the Demon King.]
‘Commander of the Corps? Are you strong?’
[It is different from other miscellaneous devils. They are blood relatives who directly inherited the blood of the Demon King, or past rulers who had part of hell as their territory.]
The Beast, a low-level demon summoned at the retreat, was also a troublesome enemy. This was especially true for the Grim Reaper, who was their leader.
But the person standing over there now is the corps commander.
Just looking at its title, it is a monster that cannot be compared to a low-level devil.
[Of course, it seems to be an imperfect manifestation, but… … . Still, the spirit I feel is unusual.]
It’s as they say.
Not only the heat, but even the instruments were not at a level where I can fight now.
A monster so big that it makes the priest look like a child.
But why?
‘… … .’
The sight of a black knight clad in flames was very impressive.
Even though I’m wearing armor, I can’t find my weapon. I cast my gaze towards the devil’s hand.
Jet-black gauntlets.
There must be red flames writhing down there, but am I going crazy?
I could feel the prayer of a noble warrior from the devil wearing armor and having a body made of flame.
An ethos so devoted that it briefly reminded me of the fourth execution. In fact, it caught my eye before the instrument or the heat.
‘… … .’
Hoseungshim is squirming.
Going back to the past, I have never felt such a strong sense of victory.
I may have been overconfident, but I also thought that it was a surprisingly worthwhile fight.
My identity as a martial artist, and the heart technique that forms the basis of it, the Cheolhwa Jeilgong, is particularly strong against heat.
If I use heat and extreme martial arts like the devil did, it means I have a bit of an advantage.
‘but… … .’
It is difficult to make a hasty move.
I know how evil and base demons are.
This means that the prayer you see now may also be a deception.
I glance at Dean Alderson.
He may be the most important person in this battle to subdue the Demon Lord.
If you can rescue them, you will gain a great deal of information, and even more, it will be of great help to you.
After a moment of deliberation, a conclusion was reached.
It’s well worth the risk.
“Mushin.”
I intentionally tried to foster it.
It was because I wanted to convey my firm will.
[Speak.]
“I guess we’ll have to fight.”
“alone? “It must be difficult.”
I reflexively went out when I suddenly heard a humorous voice.
The outstretched fist was a primitive form of punching, but it contained enough energy.
That means that it naturally developed the first type of eclipse, scorching heat.
chin.
It got blocked easily.
The soft palm calmed not only my power but also my burning energy.
“Shhh.”
The feel of your fingers on your lips.
Somewhat mischievous red eyes turned towards me.
“Hello, Luan Badnicker.”
“… … .”
I couldn’t hide my embarrassment.
In a place like this.
No, no matter where I met, an unfamiliar person looked at me with a smile.
Leone said in a whisper.
“I’m here to help.”
