【97】96.
Leo quickly eliminated the group of students targeting him and climbed to the top of the tallest building visible around him.
‘People don’t know. This is the land where Lishinas and I defeated the army commander for the first time.’
This city, destroyed due to greed, was also the place in the distant past where Kyle and Lysinas subdued the Gluttonous King Jormungand, the commander of the Tartarus army.
And this is a monumental land where the earthly races, who had lost all their homes except for the Goddess, succeeded in recapturing it for the first time.
This is where the legend of the great hero, which is not even recorded in records, began.
“At that time, it was just me and Rishinas, so it’s okay to call him a great hero.”
Leo burst into laughter as he recalled events from his past life.
“Shall we look for Lake Erdiana first?”
Leo unfolded the map of Neigrang that he had prepared in advance in his arms.
There were five locations marked on the map.
And I didn’t know that Luminous, the great spirit of brilliance, might be sleeping in one of these five lakes.
Lisinas made a promise to the ally who suffered near-extinction in the fight against Jormungand.
‘I promise, Luminous. When I wake you again, this world will be full of light.’
At that time, Luminous suffered such severe damage that its extinction was inevitable.
Therefore, Lishinas had no choice but to seal Luminous in this land.
‘It’s been so long that there’s little chance that Luminous is still asleep.’
Leo took his eyes off the map.
‘If you’re still asleep, I’ll have to wake you up.’
***
The students quickly headed to the center of Neigrang.
“Move quickly! “There is no reason to fight here now!”
The game of battle royale changes depending on who quickly occupies the central castle site, which is a safe zone.
Even if we competed for skill, the priority was to reach the central castle ruins first.
“If the curse is activated, you won’t even be able to fight for no reason and will get hit! “First of all, the central castle ruins!”
Now, this battle royale was also a final practical exam, but the fact that it was still a competition between departments still remains the same.
Therefore, many students were now moving by department.
This party was like that too.
On my way here, I encountered several parties from different departments, but there was no battle.
As it was only the beginning, everyone was acting cautiously.
‘If you fight here now, you’ll only lose yourself!’
Jureden Lessen, a third-ranking member of the Summoning Department, was sure of that.
He was the leader of a summoning party of five people.
Jureden’s party quickly moved to the castle walls and was steadily making other preparations.
“Even in this cursed land, there is something worth eating.”
This battle royale does not end until the last person standing is determined.
If we did well, it could have been a long game.
And the most important thing in a long-term war was food.
Jureden’s party was preparing for that.
“The hardships I have endured in the forest of phantom beasts over the past month were not in vain.”
A female student from the Summoning Department grumbled as she picked mushrooms and put them into subspace.
“I know.”
In the forest of phantom beasts, I interacted with wild phantom beasts without a contract.
There, some students achieved the result of increasing their affinity to the point where they could give simple commands to low-level phantom beasts and spirits without using spiritual power.
But what helped me the most now was learning how to survive in the wild.
“Thanks to you, I don’t have to worry about food no matter what remote area I go to.”
“Ugh! “It’s scary to even think about it!”
The students shook their heads as if they were fed up.
‘If only we arrive now and prepare well for the long-term battle… … .’
In an instant, Jureden’s complexion changed.
A spirit that had been entrusted with scouting the surrounding area had been reverse summoned.
“It seems like a monster has appeared ahead. “Let’s get out of here!”
“huh!”
Jureden’s party began to move.
“no?”
“Why, Jureden?”
However, the party members looked puzzled as they saw Jureden immediately become serious.
“It happened again.”
“what?”
“me too!”
Another party member shouted in panic.
“Something is coming at great speed!”
Jureden shouted urgently.
At the same time… … .
I’m going to go to the middle of the day!
The sound of fierce sparks exploding rang through the ears of all party members.
Flash!
An intense golden light exploded in front of Jureden’s party.

“Duran!”
‘shit! ‘You met the guy who hit the hardest!’
Jureden frowned and said, wary of Duran.
“Why are you blocking our path?”
“Are you asking because you don’t know?”
Duran said as he drew his sword.
“Now we are in a competition between departments. “Since we have met the enemy, it is natural to fight.”
At those words, the female student in the Summoning Department looked dumbfounded.
“What if the curse is activated? Or what if monsters appear while fighting? “Fighting here is foolish!”
“You’re talking stupid.”
Duran sneered.
“Do you think you and I are on the same level? Whether it becomes a monster or a curse is not a big problem to me. Instead of worrying about such things, it would be beneficial to eliminate at least one more competitor before going to the central castle site.”
“I thought I wouldn’t be able to communicate with you either.”
Jureden snorted.
Whioooo!
The wind swirled around him.
“By the way, Duran. I admit that you are strong, but even so, I think you ignore me too much. “Aren’t you being too dismissive of Summoning Department 3rd place?”
“Wasn’t Leo Plov the third place student in the summoning department? “I didn’t know because I wasn’t interested.”
“You bastard!”
Kwa-ga-ga-ga-ga-!
The wind spirits all blasted a storm towards Duran.
Kwazijijijik-!
When Duran swung his sword, golden currents swirled in all directions.
Duran, who instantly reverse-summoned the spirits, twitched his eyes.
‘Just a low-level spirit?’
Duran is famous for his arrogant attitude and outright disregard for his opponents, but that doesn’t mean he misjudges his opponents’ abilities.
Even if I wasn’t interested in Jureden, I knew that he was an excellent elementalist.
Weeing-!
Jureden turned his gaze to the sky.
There, a summoning circle was created that radiated powerful power.
“Nothing good will come from fighting with you for a long time! “I’ll finish it once and for all!”
Jureden, who had summoned the upper spirit of wind, smiled in remorse.
The surrounding party members built a defense line in preparation for Juran’s attack.
Whioooooo-!
Duran’s body was momentarily floating in the air due to the strong wind.
Kwagak-! Kwagak-!
Duran’s face hardened and he stepped on the ground roughly.
Duran’s feet were deeply sunken into the ground.
‘Are you saying it has this much influence just by summoning it? … .’
“That’s interesting.”
Duran curled the corners of his mouth and strengthened the hand holding the sword.
It’s so scary!
Hot!
The muscles in my arms twitched as if I was going to tear my school uniform.
Jureden shouted as he looked at Duran.
“Hit it! Alcetias!”
Whioooooo!
The superior spirit of wind that had been summoned turned into a whirlwind and struck Duran.
Duran’s eyes sparkled as he looked at the whirlwind of the storm that seemed to tear him apart.
Golden sparks flew from his eyes.
The power of his sword was maximized by the hero’s breath.
‘Thunderstorm! Astrape!’
The sword energy of the crescent-shaped lightning cut through the lashing whirlwind and soared into the sky.
Jureden’s eyes widened when he saw that.
“Whoa!”
Duran took a deep breath and pulled his foot out of the ground.
“It’s pretty good. But that’s it.”
“f*ck it!”
Jureden’s face distorted.
As Duran approached with an aura, the Jureden party flinched and backed away.
“Leave it there, Duran Moira.”
Juredden Party was startled by the sonorous voice and looked at the sky.
“Eh, Eliza!”
“sister! “You came to save us!”
“Eliza! Eliza! Eliza!”
“Are you planning to interrupt, Eliza Hergin?”
As Duran asked irritably, Eliza, who was riding the Wind Wyvern, a top-class phantom beast, said while fiddling with her fingernails.
“As it is a competition between departments, isn’t it natural to help students in each department?”
“ok! ok! sister! Have me!”
“Eliza! Eliza!”
The Summoning Department students continued to cry out and praise Eliza.
Eliza always had a high opinion of herself, but she was a student with a lot of pride in summoning.
Although he was proud, he was active in department work, so he was well-liked among students in the department.
Eliza took her eyes off her nails and looked down at Duran, curling the corners of her mouth.
“Well, I don’t want you to run away, so if you want to fight, I won’t stop you. Hohohohohoho!”
“Hehehe. If you believe these things and are being picky about them, you made the wrong choice. Eliza Hergin.”
Duran burst out laughing.
Gooooooo-!
The Jureden Party began to secretly take note of the battle between the two, who were second to none in terms of arrogance among first-year students.
“Hey, aren’t you going to get caught in the wrong and end up bleeding?”
“Well, I guess I should help Eliza, but… … For no reason, it seems like shrimp’s backs will explode in a whale fight… … .”
It was when the Summoning Department students took a step back, sweating and sweating.
Duran twitched his eyes and looked up into the sky in the opposite direction from where Eliza was.
“Crr?”
“What’s wrong, Pippi? “Is something approaching?”
When the Wind Wyvern, which is sensitive to the movement of the wind, looked in the direction Duran was looking at, Eliza made a puzzled expression.
At the same time, he did not let down his guard against Duran.
After a while, something was seen flying at great speed.
The moment I recognized that… … .
Woe!
“Aaaah!”
A student flew across the air in an instant.
And before she could prepare, Eliza, caught up in the aftermath, fell from the saddle.
Eliza’s face, which fell miserably on the Wind Wyvern’s back, was stained with anger.
Although he did not fall to the ground, it was a great humiliation for the phantom surgeon to fall from the saddle of the phantom beast he was riding.
“Heh. I never thought we’d meet so soon! “I will decide the decision right here and now!”
He, the fastest in the knight department, followed behind Leo and disappeared in an instant.
Meanwhile, Eliza, who had climbed onto the saddle, opened her eyes and glared in the direction where Leo had disappeared.
“also! also! also! Leo Plov! “Is it you!”
“Hi! I’m angry! Are you mad!”
“Eh, Eliza! Don’t worry about them now, go to the central castle ruins… … .”
“I can’t forgive you! I can never forgive you this time! Beep beep! “After Leo Plov!”
“Kyareuk!”
The Wind Wyvern spread its wings wide and soared into the sky at incredible speed.
And then it descended in the direction Leo had flown.
As the three people disappeared in an instant, the female student in the Summoning Department looked confused.
“That’s in the completely opposite direction from the central castle ruins, right? “Why are you doing this?”
Jureden sighed at those words.
“The name and color are our school’s tower. “You must have an idea.”
“I don’t know about Leo, but I think Eliza and Duran just followed Leo without thinking.”
“Leave those pickled radish alone.”
“huh? Pickled radish? “What does that mean?”
“Simple ignorant idiots.”
“uh! “It’s perfect!”
Jureden Party laughed.
“Don’t say I said that.”
“I saw you doing it!”
“Let’s move quickly. “Before we get caught up in another pointless fight.”
