Episode 529
-The number of challengers is not that large…
The statue was slightly embarrassed by the sight of the students running towards it.
There have been many students who have taken on the challenge so far, but this was the first time they had tackled it as a group like this.
“Wardanaz. “Please place an order!”
“Feet, touch the ground. Hand, tear the enemy apart. Cloak…”
The White Tiger Tower students, who had received several strengthening spells, rushed forward with confidence.
Among the first-year students, the ones most familiar with battles using strengthening magic were the White Tiger Tower students.
Apparently, battles using strengthening magic were similar to knights’ battles, unlike general magic battles.
Armed with such pride and even more reinforcement magic than usual, the White Tiger Tower students had no choice but to become bolder in their charges.
Giselle frowned at that sight.
‘The enemy is formidable, but they charge like that.’
Of course, even if the opponent was strong, he could not continue to dodge.
As one of the strengths of this side was numbers, it was essential to somehow send scouts to keep the opponent in check and obtain information.
But having no choice but to take on that role was completely different from running around excitedly just because you had some magic.
“Go for it!”
One White Tiger Tower student covered himself with a shield and screamed.
Sharpened reflexes and a revitalized body gave me confidence that I could respond to any attack.
puck!
However, the White Tiger Tower student’s cries were meaningless and he rolled to the side.
“??!”
The statue’s attack did not come from the front, but from the side.
The statue, swinging its club in the air, continued its attack without stopping.
To anyone else, it looked like he was making a futile move into the air, but to the White Tiger Tower students, it was a series of terrible attacks coming from a dead angle.
The White Tiger Tower students rolled around as the space-shifted attack came from completely unexpected directions, including from the side, behind, below, and above.
“This is…”
“What nonsense…!”
The White Tiger Tower students were shocked at the feeling of being denied the common sense of swordsmanship they had learned throughout their lives.
That wasn’t all. The Black Turtle Tower students behind him were similarly shocked.
From their perspective, the movements of the White Tiger Tower students who had received reinforcement magic were so fast that they did not dare to confront them.
However, the statue was so easily defeated that all of that felt meaningless.
“Wardanaz! “Is there a way to attack it?”
“okay.”
“what?!”
“Keep moving forward.”
“……”
“……”
The students were shocked to see Wardanaz giving instructions with an expressionless face.
Although he wasn’t angry or threatening, I could feel the aura in his cold appearance that he wouldn’t allow any rebuttal.
‘The usual Wardanaz…’
‘…That was incredibly kind…!’
The friends later realized that Wodanaz, who was always hitting the back of the head with his cane and nagging him, was actually a very kind and kind person.
“Wardanaz, come back to your original self…! “This isn’t like you!”
“quietly. “Go forward.”
“Sobbing.”
“Wardanaz. “I liked you before… no, I didn’t particularly like you, but better than you are now…”
While the White Tiger Tower students and the Black Turtle Tower students were sad and preparing to attack again, Lee Han looked at the statue.
The downside to extremely difficult magic, such as space magic, has always been its casting speed.
The statue in front of me was casting at an unbelievably fast speed thanks to the power of Einroguard, but the fundamental limitations would not go away.
Using numbers to exhaust the opponent and disperse their concentration was the right strategy.
Although the White Tiger Tower friends were screaming and flying away in front, there was not a single cloud in Lee Han’s mind, who was bound by the fate of the future.
“Salko. It’s your turn. good. “Use earth element magic to block your view as much as possible.”
“……”
Salko must have sensed that there was no point in considering it now, so he nodded and gestured.
“Sand, cover your sight!”
In an instant, dust rose up and blocked the view.
Even though Wardanaz was a little crazy right now, there was no denying that his judgment was sharp.
Salko knows exactly what magic he knows how to use, and then gives instructions to use it right away when necessary.
“Ratford. Cast the <Confusion Sand> spell. Shiles. <Rock Fire> Cast the spell. “Turn the direction 30 degrees more to the right.”
Lee Han, who was speaking, waved his cane.
Then, a water bead appeared and landed sharply in front of the feet of the White Tiger Tower student, who was trying to retreat while taking advantage of the dust.
“Advance.”
“Wardanaz, please come back to your original self!”
* * *
Although a fierce and fierce battle was taking place, surprisingly, there were some students who were satisfied with the atmosphere.
The Blue Dragon Tower students did just that.
“K… that Wodanaz guy. “That is the dignity of a great nobleman.”
“……”

Nylia, who was pulling the strings, looked at her friend from the Blue Dragon Tower in astonishment.
“What nonsense!? “That’s just crazy!”
“what? no. Neilia. Those words are too harsh. To a friend!”
The Blue Dragon Tower students were rather taken aback by Nilia’s reaction.
Anyway, I can’t believe I’m crazy to my friend.
Could it be that Nilia doesn’t like Wardanaz that much?
“Oh, no. “I was being harsh… no, that was crazy, right!”
When one of the Blue Dragon Tower students was forcibly transported and hung upside down from the ceiling, Nilia was about to jump over it when she came to her senses.
No matter how you look at this, it’s crazy.
“That’s not crazy, it’s befitting a great nobleman.”
“that’s right.”
Among noble families, great noble families with both history and reputation have always been objects of respect.
People from noble families admired his unwavering dignity and authority, but sometimes even misunderstood him.
Like right now.
“Your friend sprained his ankle and you’re telling him to lunge again!”
“It is an inevitable sacrifice for the greater good.”
“that’s right. “It is a virtue that a person in command must have.”
While I was talking, Lee Han spoke next to me.
“It looks like the wound has healed. “Go back in.”
“okay. Wodanaz!”
“I am going right now!”
After stopping the bleeding, the Blue Dragon Tower students excitedly raised their staffs and rushed forward.
Nilia couldn’t keep her mouth shut at that sight.
no…
no…!
“Nilia. “The bow has stopped.”
“hey!”
“?”
Lee Han looked puzzled.
Nilia, who had been screaming, felt her head turn white as soon as their eyes met.
“…I’m shooting now!”
“okay.”
Nilia grumbled internally and fired an arrow.
The statue erased long-distance attacks by moving through space, or summoned another statue and used it as a shield.
All attacks were constantly being blocked, but it was meaningful.
During these attacks, the distance between the students and the statue was becoming increasingly narrow.
…Of course, the students were getting beaten that much…
widely-
Nilia looked away as someone next to her dropped their wand.
It seemed like the princess made a mistake while casting a spell and dropped her wand.
“The princess. Are you okay?”
“If you’re tired, take a break…”
The followers next to the princess quickly spoke up.
Seeing that, Nilia grumbled more internally.
‘If I were a member of the royal family, I would have more friends.’
No matter how I thought about it, it seemed like it would be more advantageous to expand friendships to be from the royal family of the imperial palace than to be from the shadow patrol of the northern mountain range.
Nilia didn’t hate Ardenart, but she couldn’t help but be jealous of him making friends even if she just stayed quiet.
“it’s okay.”
“but…”
“It’s really okay.”
Aden Arth hurriedly sent his followers away and glanced at Lee Han.
Then he waved his wand vigorously and cast a spell. Somehow, it seemed like the movements were louder and the voice reciting the spell was louder than before.
“…?”
Nilia felt something familiar in that sight.
It’s as if he saw himself looking at Wardanaz’s thoughts…
‘I guess not?’
Just when I thought it must be an illusion and was about to pass it off, Aden Arth dropped his staff again.
I made another mistake because I wasn’t used to making large movements.
“……”
“……”
Nilia, who was looking at that scene, made eye contact with the princess.
Aden Arth became thoughtful and looked at Nilia, asking her to pretend not to see him. Nilia nodded her head without realizing it.
The princess heaved a sigh of relief and bowed her head. She then cast her spell again.
‘What… just happened?’
Neilia wondered if she had just dreamed.
“Nilia! We have to move forward! “I’ve just built a new wall, so stick behind it!”
“hey. “I think I just became friends with the princess…”
“What nonsense are you talking about!? “Go forward!”
* * *
‘Now is the time.’
The moment the distance was narrowed by more than half, Lee Han, who had been giving instructions from behind, cast all the spells he could cast on himself and started running.
Sharkan was the first to attack, making a bloody noise.
bang!
Although it was a statue that had only been lightly suppressed so far, it did not spare any effort against Sharkan.
That’s how threatening the opponent felt.
Jump!
Lee Han spread <Ogonin’s Light Dance (薄霧)> among the dust, then created an ice clone and rushed at it.
The moment the statue swung its club and blew away the ice clone, the club froze and its movement slowed.
At the same time, skeleton warriors rushed out.
With one hand, the statue held Lee Han in check, who had not yet emerged from the fog, and with the other hand holding a club, it swung boldly to strike down the skeleton warriors.
At that moment, skeleton warriors burst out in succession.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
The moment I moved the club through space, I was bound to receive some damage from the explosions around me.
The statue let out cries of admiration.
-Such a great…!
But Lee Han did not stop.
The opponent only had one arm broken.
Sub-octanyl bullets appeared in the air and flew in. The statue realized that the attack was much heavier than the previous attack and strengthened its defenses.
However, Lee Han was already running like a gale down the other side of Suoktan.
The statue, which was most wary of this approach, tried to move the rock in all directions of Lee Han, just as it had suppressed Lee Han last time.
At that moment, as if Lee Han had anticipated the magic, he turned and accelerated explosively.
The statue felt defeated by its unbelievably shocking appearance.
-You lost…!
After a war of attrition with waves of attacks from friends, an explosive surprise attack aimed at the moment when the statues were most depleted.
He hid the fact that he could predict space movement magic until the end, and then revealed it at a critical moment to catch us off guard.
It was a great challenge that anyone who saw it could not help but acknowledge.
-You can pass by after this…
The statue turned into powder and began to scatter.
Having achieved the purpose for which it was defeated, it now returns to dust.
Just-
Before dispersing, the statue embedded a piece of ore into Lee Han’s staff.
It was a sign that those who won the challenge deserved.
This token, with a simple spatial movement spell, will show a new path to the wizard who knocked down the statue.
-Hehe. A triumph of magic and… friendship.
The students behind us were a little puzzled by the word friendship, but they kept quiet.
I was still a bit scared of Wardanaz.
Lee Han, who received the mark, stood still.
“?”
“…?”
The students wondered why Wardanaaz was like that.
‘what?’
‘Didn’t you make a mistake?’
‘Oh, did I rush in too late earlier…?’
Lee Han slowly turned around.
And then he opened his mouth.
“What are you all doing here?”
“……”
“……”
“Hmm, is this a trap question?”
