Episode 197
“It’s the Count Maurice era, right?”
“Yes… … . That’s right.”
Hehe, I ended up laughing.
“Do you know what happened to our beloved brother Peylon?”
“… … I think he ran away.”
After standing up, I moved behind the guys who were lying down.
Run away… … .
I stood behind Morris and held his shoulders with both hands.
“What do you mean run away? That guy is dead.”
“… … .”
“I tried to torture and kill him… … but I just broke his neck because I was lazy. You won’t find his body. I burned it completely.”
Knock knock-
“Do you know what I did before I burned it?”
“… … Well… … I don’t know.”
I whispered softly in the guy’s ear.
“My heart is shattered and my head is blown up. Huh? Why are you shaking? Have you ever done it? If you have, you can relate to how I felt. This is the reaction of a sympathetic person.”
“… … No… … It’s not!”
It’s a situation where I shouldn’t laugh, but strangely enough, I can’t help but laugh.
“I regret my mistake… … so please forgive me… … You said that to make me laugh, right?”
“… … No, that’s not it!”
Those who aren’t.
“Why did you come to me?”
“……yes?”
No, just take a look.
Is this normal?
“If you really wanted to live, if you had even a little bit of knowledge about what kind of person I am, you should have gone and apologized to the kids you hurt.”
“… … .”
“I kill those who are meant to be killed, no matter what. But I have a very broad mind towards children. If ‘those victims’ had said to me even once, ‘Please spare them,’ ‘They seem to have repented their sins sufficiently, so spare them,’ I might have changed my mind a little. In some ways, making them live their whole lives repenting is a pretty good idea, rather than just killing them. But.”
He slowly removed his hand from Maurice’s shoulder.
“Have you ever gone to the victims and apologized even once?”
“… … .”
“Not that I know of. Don’t joke around… … Think about it, you look like you want to say something like that. Why would I go around the academy regularly?”
“… … .”
“I also didn’t want to get blood on my hands ‘right now’ if possible. But what can I do? The victims are always avoiding you, and you guys are still living your lives as if nothing was wrong. That bastard Delroy was the first to hit, and you guys are no different from that bastard.”

The last one who didn’t say anything.
So, the eldest son of a certain count who had been hanging out with Delroy a while ago and had been ‘suspended’ from school turns his head.
“… … First batter?”
“Oh, first batter.”
Hehe.
“Should I bury him in the same place as that guy? Or should I find a new place with more sunlight? What do you want to do?”
Tears are streaming down your eyes.
“Please save me!!”
“please!!”
I slowly cleared my throat.
“He’s the eldest son of the Marquis of Delit… … He’s quite capable. Certainly, that would be the best option for him. However, trying to do that at this point in time shows a severe lack of sense and experience. Still, I like that kind of action.”
Maybe Thanos is looking down on Cell and Charlotte because they are children in the 4th Circle.
Oh, really.
“The dragon looks like Jaws.”
“……yes?”
“No, don’t worry about it.”
No.
wait for a sec.
Suddenly an interesting idea occurred to me.
“Want to make a bet?”
“A bet?”
“If, 28 of you. That is, 24 people minus the four of you, can subdue Thanos, Cell, and Charlotte. These three.”
The four guys’ expressions are getting brighter.
I guess he predicted what I would say next.
Yes, that’s what I predicted.
“I will save you.”
The brightened face now turns into silent cheers.
I burst out laughing when I saw that.
These guys are real.
Jinjo and Dragon look like Joss.
“It looks like you’re packing up and about to go, but that Yornen guy must have noticed that you four are missing, so he’ll probably subdue you as quickly as possible and find a new place to hide, right?”
“… … .”

“Then… … let’s see.”
The time now is 16:54.
“30 minutes.”
Advertisements
“… … 30 minutes?”
“If our little ones arrive at the villa ‘safely’ within 30 minutes, I win, and if no one comes after 30 minutes.”
“What if he doesn’t come?”
“You guys are living.”
Your guys’ faces light up.
however.
Do they really believe that their plan will work?
If it’s true, it’s a little creepy.
* * *
Although time was limited, the overall situation is not bad.
In order to avoid the instructors’ eyes, I aimed for the evening when all regular classes were over, and even if someone disappeared now, I wouldn’t think seriously about it, thinking they would have gone to the dormitory.
Said.
Jornen Derit thought.
Then he let out an annoyed breath and stamped the floor with his heel.
shit.
shit!
Yeah, I kind of expected it.
I’m sure there’s at least one person out there who still can’t quite grasp how crazy that crazy guy Jack Valantier is.
That’s what I thought, but oh my god.
Four people.
“These stupid kids!”
Jornen was truly angry now.
The plans have already been made.
But because of you, the pusher, everything got messed up.
Then suddenly.
This thought occurred to me.
‘Did you notice?’
I wasn’t talking about Jack Valantier.
Those four.
I’m talking about those four informers.
There was one reason why everything was rushed like roasting beans in a lightning flash.
So that other kids don’t have to think about anything else.
What I mean is.
Simply subduing Thanos and his men and hiding them somewhere… … This alone would certainly buy time.
But it’s not enough.
Advertisements
Since more than half of the instructors in this academy are on Jack Valantier’s side, it’s clear that even if we do something, it won’t be enough.
so.
Added one more thing.
27 ‘colleagues’ excluding himself.
What if we just throw them all out as ‘bait’?
If the 27 people spread out here and there, it would take time to catch them, and during that time, Yornen planned to survive ‘alone’.
‘Idiots have their own uses… … I didn’t expect it because they were so stupid.’
The route was already planned out and all that had to be done was to execute it, but four timid people made them sew the first button wrong.
It would be strange not to be angry.
Still, I tried my best not to show it.
“Once the subjugation is over, I’ll hide them, so you guys run straight back to the agreed route. Do you know what I mean?”
The 23 students following behind nod their heads.
And now.
Thanos and his group appear before your eyes.
Jornen didn’t think any further.
4 circle mana user.
His momentum, which was raised through pure skill rather than mana transplant, overwhelms Thanos and his group.
Thanos and the kids turn their heads late and are confused.
As he drew his sword from its scabbard and swung it, only the events that had occurred after subduing these two kids, including Thanos, were on his mind.
and.
That was clearly a misjudgment.
* * *
Thanos was dumbfounded.
I’ve already been feeling complicated because of a lot of things going on lately, so what could this be?
Students were rushing in front of me.
“We’re all meeting for the first time, so why are you running like that?”
-I think he just wants to fight.
Charlotte was puzzled and Sel was laughing hysterically.
What’s important here is that this is the first time Cell and Charlotte have seen these twenty-plus people.
But it wasn’t Thanos.
“When my lord reorganized the academy before.”
The two little ones’ gaze shifts to Thanos.
Thanos slowly pulled out the great sword he had on his back and raised it.
“Do you remember what I said about leaving the students alone for ‘a moment’?”
The distance is getting closer.
Advertisements
Yet they were so relaxed.
-I remember it because it was mentioned in passing, but are those guys in front of me the same guys from back then?
“That’s right. It looks like they’re trying to take us hostage or subdue us for the time being.”
slowly.
Thanos’ arm swells.
Partial rigidity stage 1.
The cell asks quietly.
-Can I help you?
If it were me.
If it had been ‘Jeon’ who only had 2 circles, he would probably have needed help from Cell or Charlotte.
But not anymore.
“Just rest.”
Thanos took a step forward and held the sword with his compressed arm.
Crunch-
At that moment, an eerie sound rang out.
The cell behind frowns.
Because Thanos, it seemed like something had changed.
At least that’s what Cell felt.
After that, two things happened.
Thanos’ compressed arm swells once more and the fourth-year swordsmanship student ‘Yornen’ who threw his body shouts.
These two things clearly happened simultaneously.
“Long time no see, little toy!”
Spencer and Montorial, both fourth-year students in the same department, jumped in next to him.
Thanos swung his sword at the three.
So natural.
There were more of them hidden in that sword path that cuts through the air like the wind, and it was faster and more destructive than I thought.
Until this moment, those three were unaware.
Hoooooow-!!
Yornen and the children were surprised later.
At that moment, they hurriedly took a defensive stance.
Kwajik-!!
Just one loud noise.
That was the end.
The room becomes quiet.
From the twenty or so people running towards them, to the two little kids literally watching quietly from behind.
Advertisements
Everyone became quiet.
Because.
Because the bodies of the three students who were running out were split in two by the sword.
Thud- Thud-
“Ah… … Ahh?”
“uh……?”
“……uh?”
The three students whose upper and lower bodies were separated uttered such questioning words.
That was the end.
Those three died immediately.
Wow, this isn’t some kind of novel.
With just one swing of the sword, three children of the same level are split in half?
The children who were watching were just dumbfounded.
And Cell and Charlotte, who were behind, felt it.
‘Stage 2 of the Rigid Technique… …?’
It was clear that Thanos’ arm swelled not once but twice.
When on earth did we move on to stage 2?
Then Thanos took another step forward.
Iron Buck-
The sound of stepping on blood.
And the sinking atmosphere.
“I think you forgot.”
Thanos, who had once swung his sword, looked at the students with cold eyes.
“The head of the inspection team told me that if there’s anyone causing trouble, I should take care of it myself.”
Thanos’ eyes scan the surroundings.
“You said it was okay to kill as long as there was a good reason… … As you all know, what constitutes a good reason is up to you.”
Thanos didn’t run.
I just walked slowly.
However, the students who faced Thanos were pushed back little by little.
Momentum and atmosphere.
Thanos’s was already beyond the students’ level.
Thanos’ life is divided into before and after he meets Jack.
Jack simply informed Thanos.
How to win a fight.
Thanos was fighting now.
Advertisements
“If you surrender, I will spare your life. But.”
Kkwaduk-!
Thanos’ entire body, except for his right arm, swelled and then compressed.
And then I repeated the process one more time.
Full body rigidity, stage 2.
If a 4th circle mana user can attempt the 2nd stage of full body strength, he can definitely unleash power comparable to that of a 7th circle, even if it is ‘temporarily’.
Thanos’s current state was like this.
Thanos’ appearance with red veins sprouting from both arms was terrifying in itself, and he looked like a demon, in contrast to the innocent face he had shown until now.
He declared.
“If you rebel, you all die.”
Only then did the 20 or so students realize it.
Before you even start.
From the very beginning when I first started planning.
The fact that I was making a very fatal mistake.
