Admission is a waste of time (62)
Lesson 13. I have to see you kneel – 7
Unfortunately, Ortima’s assessment of the situation was faster than Dokgoyeon’s movements to cut off his neck.
“―Get out there! Are you going to let me die?!”
Lucien Ortima, who felt a sense of crisis at the death brought about by Dokgo Yeon, grabbed her empty right shoulder and shouted in a fit of rage.
The moment those words fell, some kind of ‘mystery’ that had been connected to Ortima was released, and the atmosphere of the entire dungeon changed drastically.
‘Could this be, the constellations themselves… … Tsk!’
Dokgo Yeon, who felt the momentum tightening around him, clicked his tongue and backed away from the spot.
I couldn’t avoid all the magical flames flying from all directions, but I was able to block them with the self-protection energy I quickly wrapped around my body.
“under.”
A terrible flame of heat rushing in from all sides.
Dokgoyeon landed safely, wiping away the aura of death that had been sent flying by waving his sleeves, and took a deep breath before snorting.
“After causing all sorts of trouble, you end up begging for help from the constellations. It’s really funny how you can’t do anything without borrowing the help of others.”
“Shut up, shut up, shut up!”
It was fortunate that she had cut off his right arm before the intruder could interfere, she thought leisurely as she wrapped it in a cloth and put it in her bosom.
Ortima, who had barely managed to shake off the fear of death with the help of the constellation, was glaring at her as if he was going to kill her.
“How dare you, how dare you… …! I’ll tear off both of your arms. You won’t even be able to eat as you wish without bowing down to me and begging!”
“They say a scared dog barks louder, and that’s exactly what happened.”
“Are you treating me like a dog?!”
The more I mixed up the words, the more pathetic the other person seemed and I sighed involuntarily.
Even though he had very little energy, and even though he would run away with his tail between his legs in front of a strong person, Ban Yu-won always gave off a sense of dignity and composure.
Yeah, now I know why I’m attracted to Ban Yu-won.
On the first day of school, his attitude of avoiding a duel with Erecto but never being cowardly and promising to meet him again was impressive.
It’s hard to find someone who can give you the confidence that you will get stronger.
-That spirit is truly admirable.
As she was reminiscing about the past while facing an enemy she couldn’t kill right away, a high-ranking person’s voice rang in her ears.
Naturally, it was the constellation that had been attacking her with flames.
He shamelessly praised the person who attacked him with the intent to kill him.
-If you join Exodus, I’ll let you kill that man.
Isn’t it so bold to make such a suggestion in a voice that only she can hear?
Dokgo Yeon couldn’t help but laugh at those words.
Even if he hadn’t intervened, she would have killed Ortima cleanly, so why are you making such a showy suggestion when he interfered with that?
This is why I hate those constellations.
“This guy and that guy are acting like they want to. If you’re going to make a suggestion, you should burn out one of their eyes first.”
“what……?”
Ortima, who had barely managed to stop the bleeding with the display of dominance, raised his head and frowned greatly.
“Could it be the wandering light of the night?”
– Are the negotiations broken down?
“Constellation, what are you doing? You promised to help me, and then you made an offer to that woman? Explain it to me clearly.”
-Don’t worry, Ortima’s child. You were planning on taking that child in anyway, weren’t you?
“Yes, she’s mine! You’re not the one who can touch her!”
-That’s interesting. When you ask for my help, you always get so cocky.
A minor quarrel arose.
If it had been a half-circle, he would have sought a way to maximize the conflict between the two here.
However, Dokgo Yeon’s personality was not good enough to think of getting those two into a fight and then getting away with it.
If there are two people you want to beat, you have to beat them both to death.
All she is allowed to do is go straight, there is no going back.
That was her pride.
“So how long are you going to keep talking? Do I look like I’ve caught all the fish?”
Death gathered around the sword that Dokgo Yeon pulled out, forming a blade of ominous energy.
Ortima flinched at the sight and stretched out her only remaining hand.
Dokgoyeon reflexively shot a sword blast, but a shield of flames blooming in the air blocked it.
‘Until when, how much is possible?’
Her eyebrows twitched.
Five lines of black energy shot out at once, but this time too they were blocked by flames and were frustrated.
―It would be a shame to clip your wings like this… … .
While Dokgoyeon was unable to restrain Ortima because he was busy dealing with the divine being that had encroached upon space, the bastard achieved his goal.
I think he was going to do that earlier, but this makes it certain.
He was trying to handle inventory.
Dokgoyeon laughed as he looked at the dozens of tiny beads sticking out from inside.
“You can’t touch me directly, so you’re going to use objects? – Come on, everyone. I’ll kill you.”
“I will take back both arms as I said. I will not touch your face. Be grateful!”
Ortima was out of her mind due to the pain of losing her arm.
Astraea, a total of 24 bead-shaped artifacts that concentrate all of his dominance.
-Saaa
The beads, each one imbued with terrible power, were all made of metal mined from meteorites—meteorite—and had been imbued with his energy for ages, so they moved at the same speed as his thoughts.
“Break, get on your knees. That is the proper posture for you.”
– I can’t help it. I have a lot of children to look after… … It’s going to hurt a little.

Even the twenty-four iron balls alone were no easy task, but even the flames of the constellation, which could not be found even when trying to attack the main body, continuously bloomed in the air and oppressed her.
But of course, Dokgo Yeon did not run away or retreat.
“No one can make me kneel!”
The black aura that held death bloomed in the air like layer upon layer of flower petals.
He killed all the dozens of indiscriminately rushing iron balls and the irrationally burning flames of the gods.
With his transcendent senses, he perceived everything that approached him and struck and destroyed them all one by one.
No, it doesn’t end there.
“Huh?!”
The death she has wrought is spreading.
The aura of death that had penetrated through the black bead even affected Ortima himself, who wielded it.
It was the same even if it was a constellation that had its own flame cut off.
―… … How is this possible? I feel like my influence is fading away.
“Don’t back down, Constellation. Remember that my trust in Exodus has already been eroded by more than half!”
―Little Ortima, you greedy child. It seems that we have suffered losses because of you.
Ortima backed away further and further, fearing that her sword energy might touch her body, and only controlled Astraea to attack her.
The constellation bound by a promise that cannot be fulfilled, the wandering light of the night, was the energy that Dokgoyeon created – it pierced through the distant and high wall of providence and, while frowning at the insignificant influence it had on her directly, created an even greater flame and enveloped her.
“You are so afraid of me that you want to take me as your woman!”
Death roared as it enveloped Dokgoyeon.
Among the iron beads that made up Astraea, the central and most powerful bead—the First Star—lost its power and fell to the ground.
The remaining twenty-three iron balls and crimson sparks shot out simultaneously and reflected in all directions.
Some of them scratched Ortima’s cheeks, causing them to bleed.
“Huh―?!”
Lucien Ortima was extremely angry at the fact that she had been pushing someone with the power of the constellation and ended up getting hurt again.
“Dokgoyeon… …! Dokgoyeon. Dokgoyeon, Dokgoyeon!”
“Don’t say my name in vain, you piece of trash!”
Dokgo Yeon’s entire body was dyed black.
A sharp explosion of death pierced Ortima’s one eye.
Since he dared to look down on death, isn’t it only natural that he should pay the price?
“Ugh.”
At that moment, Dokgo Yeon vomited black, dead blood.
It was because she too could not completely control the dense death she had called forth.
Ortima glared at that.
I have now realized that Dokgo Yeon was bluffing and that he had actually reached his limit!
“You’re cute, Dokgoyeon. I even like the way you wag your tail like a cat… …!”
―You’d better restrain yourself while you speak, young Ortima. I’m getting close to my limit!
“under.”
Before she knew it, the flower decoration that had been protecting her had also broken.
But Dokgo Yeon’s eyes were far from emotions like despair or giving up.
He knew from the moment he ‘set his course’ that his martial arts were fraught with danger.
“It’s funny how you already act like you own me. Do you like me… …? I’ve heard many lies from those who pretend to be bold men, but you’re the most disgusting of all… …!”
A black energy surged around Dokgo Yeon’s body.
Ironically enough, the moment she got even a little closer to death, the energy she was dealing with was amplified.
But perhaps the next conflict will be the last time she can maintain her sanity.
‘Just a little bit… … Come a little bit closer.’
The next moment, the cross hanging between her two eyes flashed fiercely.
“As promised, I will take both arms first!”
-This is my last, so you’ll have to figure out what’s left.
“Burrji… … Come and get it!”
A volley of countless meteors pour down, created by the combination of fierce flames and twenty-three iron balls!
Now was the moment she had been waiting for, she raised her sword and prepared for the perfect counterattack―.
“No!”
I was suddenly grabbed by someone who appeared from behind and thrown over the wall of the dungeon.
“What, what?!”
-This, Run… … is a dungeon!
And at that very moment, the dungeon was finally conquered, and the constellations could no longer influence this space.
“No! Wandering Night Light, complete the contract!”
―Little Ortima, I did my best, so you will pay dearly. If I had given more from the beginning, I could have exerted more strength. How foolish… … !
The constellation’s presence disappeared in vain as it finished speaking.
Ortima gritted his teeth and tried to shoot Astraea as he watched Dokgoyeon escape his ‘territory’ after being caught by an unexpected intruder―.
“ah.”
It’s already too late.
A dungeon that collapses and disappears.
The boundaries of space and time disappeared, and everyone inside the dungeon was thrown outside.
“I, you, Dokgoyeon… …!”
-Quadduk
Ortima’s hand stretched out towards Dokgoyeon, who was moving away from him.
I was stopped by several layers of thorns that sprouted from the air.
“Ugh, haa… … ?”
“Lucain Rownpalomer Equinas Ortima.”
If a voice could contain murderous intent, it would surely be like this, a cold voice that tore through Ortima’s entire body.
There aren’t many people who can render someone as strong as Lucien Ortima immobile just by the presence of the magical power they possess.
“You lost your arm. You will need medical attention. I will send you to a safe place.”
“Yumina, professor… … .”
“Be careful not to omit honorifics. That’s minus 20 points.”
Yumina laughed.
She said with an expression that seemed to indicate that she was extremely sorry that she could not kill him right then and there.
“You jumped into the dungeon yourself to rescue our children while I was away. I’m so grateful that I could cry. I’ll never forget this favor.”
Never.
Yumina smiled as she said that and activated her teleportation magic to send him to the infirmary of the Tolmon Imperial Castle.
Lucien Ortima had been preparing excuses for every situation from the beginning, and was ready to turn the tables on the 11th squad, but… … .
He remained silent, knowing that no matter what he did, the ultimate price he would receive would be death.
The death that Dokgoyeon had breathed into him stayed with him and warned him, but he did not realize it.
* * *
“Dokgoyeon!”
“……ah.”
Meanwhile, Dokgo Yeon, who was caught by someone else and was thrown out of the dungeon after being interrupted from the final clash, ended up laughing as he saw Ban Yu-won running towards him as soon as he found him.
“Why on earth are you like that… … No, why are you with Aneri! It’s that woman after all!”
“Oh, no! I know it may be misunderstood, but I’m really not your enemy! I saved Dokgo Yeon!”
When he turned around at the sound of Ban Yu-won’s panicked voice, he saw Aneri Dedota holding onto his shoulder tightly.
She had been thinking that maybe he wasn’t an enemy based on his actions just before entering the dungeon, but… …she ended up clicking her tongue.
“If I had just left it alone, I could have lured them in and killed them perfectly, you idiot.”
“If I had really killed him there, then it would have been an irreparable disaster. And it’s also true that his life was in danger. He was too precious to risk his life for.”
“That’s the contrast… … Okay, that’s enough.”
Dokgo Yeon shook off Aneri and smiled at Ban Yu-won, who was coming towards her as if he would support her instead.
“Ban Yu-won, you don’t need to make such a serious expression.”
Dokgo Yeon took out the candy he had been keeping in his arms, put it in his mouth, and bit into it.
I felt the immense life force contained within it instantly spread throughout my body, subduing and annihilating the death that dared to violate the spirit and body of the master.
I knew this would happen because I knew the efficacy of the fruit used as the ingredient, but the effect was better than expected.
Not only did it cleanly suppress the aftereffects of her martial arts, it also calmed her spirit and improved her character.
“… … Are you okay?”
“Thanks to you. Oh, this is a gift.”
Dokgo Yeon gave two gifts to Ban Yu-won, who was still looking at her with worried eyes (it had been a long time since she had received such a gaze from someone), with a little bit of gratitude, a little bit of shame, and a little bit of spite.
“What is this!”
“Absorb it quickly before anyone sees it.”
“Even without that… … what is this iron ball? What concept is contained within it… … .”
“I told you it was a gift.”
I brought it with me even though I was absent-minded, thinking it would be helpful to him.
“Who on earth would give a person an arm as a gift… … Thank you.”
“I really like how honest you are.”
“You’re starting to look more and more like my mom… … No, it’s nothing.”
As expected, Ban Yu-won seemed very satisfied with the arm of Ortima and the first-class Astraea that she had brought with her.
Dokgo Yeon smiled contentedly, thinking that her gift-choosing sense wasn’t bad at all.
