Episode 419
“Koooooooo!!!”
“Yessssssssssssssssss…”
The sounds of bizarre monsters echo in all directions.
“It really is endless.”
“Grrr…”
“Tsk.”
An erosion phenomenon occurring in the air that makes it difficult to enter. The monsters that poured out of that deep, dark space, like the jaws of a snake, were rushing into the academy like a flood.
“How much longer can you hold out?”
“Ah, it’s still easy…!”
“Don’t overdo it. I’ll try a little harder.”
The ones blocking the army of monsters are none other than Klana, Lulu, and Isolette.
While the aura of domination, which has the ability to bring all living creatures to their feet, and the magical eye, which has an equivalent ability, grab the monsters’ ankles, Isolet’s powerful sword strike sweeps through the monsters.
Thanks to this, the monsters were cruelly torn apart without even being able to resist.
Their abilities, which were optimized to deal with large-scale enemies, were showing off.
“Ugh…”
“are you okay?”
However, it was impossible to fight such an overwhelming fight forever.
“Yes, yes… it’s okay… ugh.”
“There’s blood in your eyes… ugh.”
Blood was flowing out of Lulu’s eyes, as she had been activating her Demon Eyes on a large scale without stopping for several hours, and cold sweat was also flowing down from Klana’s forehead, who had been constantly emitting aura.
“No matter how efficient a technique is… if you keep using it without stopping, you will eventually get tired.”
Isolette, who was looking at them, muttered in a low voice.
“It would be nice to have reinforcements…”
However, contrary to her wishes, she could not expect support.
Frey and Ruby are still engaged in a close battle with the Demon King.
Perloce, Serena, and Glare have gone to protect the citizens, and Irina is in contact with the dragons.
Additionally, Cania will not have the resources to maintain the eclipse and control the erosion of its borders, and the remaining imperial forces are engaged in battle with the Demon Lord’s army.
“It would have been nice if Irina was there… Abraham is also away due to a mission…”
Isolette muttered with a sad voice as she looked at the monsters screaming with their feet tied in front of her, then looked behind her once again.
“What are you doing? Go ahead and slash.”
“Don’t worry about us…”
Meanwhile, Klana and Lulu’s condition was getting worse.
“…Hmm.”
It was a moment to make a decision.
“You guys, stop for a second.”
“yes?”
“…..?”
When Isolette said that with her eyes closed, Clanna and Lulu tilted their heads, unable to believe their ears.
“I mean, rest for a while.”
“But then the monsters…”
“I will deal with the monsters alone.”
As Isolette said that, she slowly walked towards the army of monsters, and Klana and Lulu grabbed her with embarrassed expressions.
“Are you crazy? No matter how much you are, it’s hard to deal with a monster as strong as me…”
“I guess there’s nothing we can do about it.”
But Isolette’s expression was very strong.
“If things continue like this, it’s only a matter of time before the Academy collapses. So, while I have time, I need to recover at least a little bit…”
“No. What if something happens to you?”
“It is inevitable for a knight to get hurt in war.”
“It’s not that kind of problem…!”
Klana held her arm even tighter and raised her voice at her attitude.
– I’m shaking… I’m shaking…!
“….Ugh.”
However, as the erosion phenomenon in the air expanded even further with black sparks flying, she and Lulu became speechless and began to look up at the sky blankly.
“This is the moment when I finally understand the Frey of the past.”
“Ugh.”
“Now, wait…!!!”
Thanks to this, when the hand holding her loosened, Isolette took advantage of the opportunity to shake off the girls and run forward.
“Don’t worry. I’ll try to save my life somehow…”
– Kugwagwagwagwagwanggwang!!!
“…….her?”
But at that very moment, a huge flash of light passes by Isolette, making a loud noise.
“what…..”
Isolette had a blank expression on her face as the attack, which even she was belatedly aware of, swept away the monsters in front of her.
“……..!?”
Then, she slowly turned her head back to see who had struck the terrifying blow, and then muttered with a puzzled expression on her face.
“What do you think…?”

Not long ago, inside the academy.
“Ugh… look at this.”
“What… is this?”
The students who were preparing for a desperate fight with tense expressions inside the defensive wall were sweating and touching the chunks of ice that had formed next to them.
“I don’t know. I was fine just a moment ago…”
“Their screams were pretty terrifying.”
Surprisingly, students with surprised or crying expressions were frozen inside the ice block.
“It seems to be alive… although its life force is periodically being sucked out somewhere.”
“That’s spooky. I’m just glad I didn’t turn into ice.”
The students looked at the scene with complicated expressions and each threw a shout.
“Wait a minute… I guess frozen people have something in common.”
“…what?”
However, Olivia, a first-year student who was closely examining the ice among them, opened her mouth with bright eyes.
“The frozen people here… these are all the people who were screaming at us to vote no.”
“Well, is that real?”
As she said, all the high-ranking nobles who had gathered among themselves were frozen.
“Now that I think about it… only about half of it is frozen.”
“…The teachers who were flinching earlier also froze.”
“So… guaranteeing safety regardless of the vote result means putting it in ice?”
“I guess so.”
After slowly understanding the situation, the remaining students began to tremble with a creepy feeling.
“Wow… how strong is the Demon King…”
“These frozen people… I heard there are a lot of them on the Western Continent. So, could it be that they are all the Demon King’s energy source…?”
“That’s ridiculous. How can we defeat such a monster?”
While they were muttering that, they looked with trembling eyes at Aishi, who was fighting on the other side of the defensive wall.
– Kwazijic…! Kwazizig….!!!
Even though several hours have already passed, Aishi is slowly regaining her relaxed smile and attacking her without any hesitation.
“haha…”
“…Hmm.”
And, Frey and Ruby are fighting back her attacks with slightly tired expressions.
At first glance, it seemed like they were still fighting on equal footing, but if you look closely, their actions were noticeably slower than before.
– It’s crunchy…! It’s so scary…!!
The students, who had been swallowing dry saliva in such a situation, turned their gaze with wide eyes at the spark that erupted nearby.
“Ugh…”
“You guys… what are you doing?”
Several first-year students, including Eurelia, Lenya, and Lecane, were gritting their teeth and collecting each other’s mana.
“If this… if I succeed in this…”
“Hey, shut up and focus…!”
A joint technique of colored mana that they were planning to use when confronting Frey a few months ago.
They were trying to recreate the technique, which is classified as one of the few special moves in blacktail fantasy.
“Now, wait a minute! Focus…!”
– Pubububung…!
“Kwaaagh!?”
However, there was no way that the joint flag, which had never been properly implemented even after months of practice, would miraculously succeed now.
“Cough, call…”
“…Fail again.”
In the end, the joint plane failed spectacularly, creating a huge dust cloud.
Eurelia, who was looking at the girls who were giggling inside, muttered with a dark expression.
“In the end… you end up failing until the end.”
“Ha, just one more time… Let’s try one more time… The instability part is better than before, right? Uh, maybe next time…”
“…That’s it, there’s no hope anymore.”
When Eurelia, who had said that, stood up with her eyes turning black, Lenya stretched out her hand but immediately lowered her head.
It seemed like their practice, which had been going on for months, was in vain.
“Aww.”
“…Ayat.”
However, as she walked away, leaving behind the girls who lowered their heads with sullen expressions, something bit her ankle.
“Cat doll…..?”
I don’t know why, but the black cat doll came alive and moving at her feet.
“…You mean to follow me?”
Eurelia, who was looking at him with a puzzled expression, soon asked with shining eyes.
– Shaaa…
This was because the cat doll was emitting a black energy that was very familiar to him.
“….under?”
Eurelia, who was unconsciously drawn by that familiar energy, started walking and soon looked around with a blank expression.
“What on earth…?”
“Aeooooong…”
“Meow?”
The academy’s backyard was teeming with cats.
“From cat dolls… to spirits… to wild cats…”
Eurelia, who already knew that there are cat spirits that have been living in the academy’s backyard for a thousand years, approaches them with a puzzled expression.
The cat spirits of the Academy are the highest species among spirits. Therefore, it is common for feral cats not to approach them carelessly.
– Shaking…
But for some reason, those noble spirits and wild cats were standing in a circle behind the black cat doll, looking up at her with bright eyes.
-Tup…!
“…..?”
After a moment of silence, Eurelia’s eyes widen as a white spirit grabs the tail of the black cat doll standing in front.
“Aww.”
“Meow!”
“Gorolong…”
The cat next to the spirit bit its tail.
This time, the spirit behind the cat bit the cat’s tail…
“……..”
As the spirit and the cat bit each other’s tails, the cutest ring in the world was created.
“””Aw~!”””
– Whirlick, whiff…
“……..This.”
As the guys biting each other’s tail started to spin the ring, Eurelia, who was watching them with a blank expression, caught her eye.
“Yeah, yeah… that’s it.”
“””Aww…?”””
“You don’t necessarily need to put only colored mana.”
Eventually, she started muttering that and busily turning her head.
“Even mana without color… even mana with insignificant power… can compensate for instability.”
“””Aww!”””
“It’s a cooperative aircraft that everyone, not just those with different colors, must cooperate to fire… Yes, that’s why it was a ‘cooperative aircraft’…!”
She finally comes to a conclusion and lowers her head with a bright smile for the first time in a long time.
“Thank you… spirits. For enlightening me…”
“…………”
“And… the cats… too?”
“”Gorolong…””
Eventually, the spirits and cats sneaked up to her legs and started rubbing their cheeks.
“…Well, by the way.”
Eurelia, who was stroking them for a moment and then quickly trying to walk away, soon tilted her head and opened her mouth.
“What are you?”
“…Aww?”
It was a black cat doll that tilted its head with an innocent expression at those words.
.
“You guys… how did you get out?”
So, back to the present.
“It was really successful…”
“I guess getting help from other students would be the answer… We practiced alone for months…”
“Because we were born with unique mana, we may have been subconsciously discriminating. And that prevented the completion of the technology. This is something we need to reflect on.”
“I guess that was why he emphasized the importance of cooperation.”
Isolette had a blank expression on her face as she looked at the academy students crowding behind her.
“When the vote ended in favor and the Academy went to a resolution, I reached out just in case… but it was rejected?”
“Because they have already made up their minds, there is no need to protect them or restrain them.”
“Well, that’s not the problem!!”
Eventually, when the students answered with calm expressions, Isolette screamed.
“It’s dangerous here! Can’t you see that army of monsters over there?”
Behind her, the monsters that had been pushed out from the erosion phenomenon and had begun to crowd in again were breathing heavily, casting sinister glances at the academy.
“You guys go back inside the academy. It’s too dangerous here. I’ll do something…”
“no.”
In front of her, someone comes out from among the academy students.
“We will fight too.”
“…what?”
Eurelia, with a dozing cat doll on her head in a loafing position, speaks with one eye slightly shining white.
“I will no longer allow anyone to fight alone.”
“That kind of power… where did you get it?”
As the mana emitted by the students behind her began to resonate with the mana of those with color, Isolette asked a question in a low voice.
“I have just realized the importance of cooperation.”
“Wow!!!”
“And that…”
Eurelia answered that question with a bright smile and pointed to the roadside in the distance.
“…I think they just realized it too.”
“Let us protect the Empire and drive out evil!!!”
“Let’s save the frozen ones!!”
“Fray Demon Lord… For the hero!!”
Imperial private soldiers were urgently summoned.
Demons and combat executives under Demirkan.
And countless citizens were rushing towards the academy to help their frozen family and colleagues.
“…I can smell the blood of demons.”
“yes?”
“No.”
And at the front of the procession, a man armed with heirlooms all over his body, radiating ferocious energy in all directions, glaring at Aisi’s demon lord army.
“Charge!!!”
“We’ll take care of this! Professor, you and your group can take a break!!”
The loud voices of Abraham and Eurelia mingled and rang out across the bloody battlefield.
.
Meanwhile, at that time.
“………….”
“Yeah, you’re kind of normal.”
Irina, who had reached the top of the hill where the dragons were stationed, was looking at the dragon in front of her with an annoyed expression.
“You’re the leader here, right?”
Irina had to watch the disgusting cuteness and antics of countless dragons while climbing to the top.
“As expected, the leader is different no matter what. Unlike the beggars below, he seems to have lived at least 500 years…”
She was extremely annoyed by the unknown situation, and spoke in a fierce voice as she glared at the leader of the dragons, who was giving off a force that was on a completely different level from the dragons she had met so far.
“Well, anyway, I’ll just tell you the requirements.”
“………….”
“If I keep siding with the Demon King, I’ll make sure to only see him at the zoo later… Um?”
However, before speaking, Irina tilts her head and examines the dragon’s expression.
“Are you listening to me?”
“Grrr…”
“Did they eat something wrong in a group?”
Eventually, she saw that he was sweating with round eyes and collapsed on the floor with a sigh.
“…But, I think I ate something wrong too.”
Then she frowns and mutters that.
“Why is it so hot?”
Just like that, Irina was fanning her hands with a puzzled expression as sweat suddenly started flowing from her entire body.
“sister?”
“huh?”
Then, she looks at him with a blank face when she hears the trembling voice of the leader of the dragon clan, who quietly hides his tail toward his stomach.
“Where have you been and now?”
“……???”
When Irina heard those words, a question mark began to appear on Irina’s face.
