76 – Deathblade (3)

The battle entered midway.

Thanks to the support of students including Maharet and the saintess, the defense battle was being carried out successfully.

[-Flame Trap-]

ㅡHurt! bang!!

I tossed the scrolls in my hand to the floor and scanned the battlefield.

The pouring monsters and the students desperately blocking them.

Remnants of magic and pieces of meat bounce here and there.

The number of remaining monsters is about 2,000…

I wonder if the subjugation speed has slowed down a bit,

Considering that I, the main axis of the defensive battle, was currently sluggish due to physical problems, the speed was not that slow.

“As expected, it must be thanks to those two…”

The place where my eyes were directed was Maharet and the saintess who were engaged in a melee from far away.

The wind that rips the bodies of monsters apart,

A holy power bomb that explodes the ranks.

They were two people whose hearts were reassured just by looking at them.

“Whoa… I have to move too…”

I brushed off the rust-colored blood on my sword and moved my feet.

Perhaps because of overexertion, my leg muscles were tingling badly.

‘Tsk… It would be more convenient if I could use Blink.’

Since I’m in a position to hide my identity, I couldn’t use my unique magic ‘Blink’.

At best, I even wore a mask, but if I use Blink, everything will be exposed.

I clicked my tongue a little in regret and raised my sword.

-Imperial swordsmanship 3rd formula-

‘sting’

ㅡQuad Deuk!

A swiftly shot sword squeezed between the Goblin King’s forehead.

When I twist the embedded sword violently, the green head is crushed like tofu.

Pitter-pattered lumps of flesh drip down and wet your hands.

“Mi, crazy… did you just see? Goblin King in one shot…”

“Are you really one of the professors…? What are your skills…”

“There!

As I stood in the middle of the chaotic battlefield wiping my hands, I could hear the whispers of the students.

‘Certainly… the body is overflowing with strength. His strength and speed are incomparable to before.’

It must be thanks to the goddess.

A few weeks ago, the day I decided to stay in this world.

I was worried about what to do for me after making such a choice, because the goddess strengthened most of my abilities.

Currently, my average stat is B+, and my total mana is 300.

The follow-up stat has risen by 2 ranks compared to before, and the amount of mana has more than doubled.

‘Because Blink’s stock limit has also increased from 10 to 20…’

Thanks to this, moving the body and cutting became much easier.

I express my gratitude to the goddess in my heart, and move my sword.

Together with the blue light that roars, it jumps into the monsters again.

[-Ice Arrows-]

[-Shadow Sphere-]

A battlefield where various kinds of scrolls are flying and countless magics are swirling around.

Whilst stirring and fighting,

At the border of the back gate, a figure can be seen swaying.

“…What is that?”

When I look over there with a slight frown, I see a man standing among countless monsters.

A man slicing between the monsters and moving toward us with a leisurely gait.

It was a beggar-like man wearing a tattered robe.

“uh….?”

After staring at the man for a while, a muffled sound suddenly escaped from my mouth.

In that small nasal voice, various things such as doubt, bewilderment, and astonishment were mixed.

“Why, why is that bastard here…?

It was only natural that I was lost.

That’s right, the guy who should never have appeared at this point was right in front of my eyes.

“Lenin…?”

The sword of death, Lenin.

One of the 5 officers of the Demon King’s Army.

The guy who appeared as the final boss in volume 5 of the original [The Hero Loved by Everyone] was approaching this way.

.

.

.

‘5 executives’

It was a term used to refer to the five people who could be said to be the strongest within the Demon King’s army, excluding the ‘Four Heavenly Kings’.

As far as I remember, there were only three of the five executives who appeared in the original work.

The Black Liar, Le Lanto.

Demon of Flame, Ygritan.

The sword of death, Lenin.

Like all demons with nicknames, they were also described as strong and overwhelming enemies in the original work.

Among them, if you pick the most impactful and intensely featured person, it would be Lenin without question.

Because it was he who gave Alan his first defeat as a Munchkin.

ㅡHeh, heh, heh, heh…

—-Hmm, the hero… He was a guy who wasn’t much better than I thought.

Lenin, who first appeared in the 4th volume of the original work, overpowered Alan in his first meeting with him, who was in his second year at the time.

Then, as if nothing had happened, the sight of him brushing away the blood on his sword was fear itself.

ㅡFear me, warrior.

—-For life, it is natural to harbor fear toward death.

From the 4th to the 5th volume, until he became the final boss, it was Lenin who often showed his face.

So in a word…

“f*ck.”

It was a joke.

It was because the final boss of volume 5 appeared in front of me at this point, when even volume 3 of the original work had not yet been finished.

Cold sweat runs down my back.

I try to clear my embarrassment and clear my mind, but it’s not that easy.

‘why…? why….?’

Why the hell is that bastard here?

Based on the current point of view, at least two chapters will pass before he will reveal himself.

Even if it’s too early, isn’t it too early?

No, no, what more than that?

Lenin is an opponent that Alan, a sophomore, was able to defeat only after awakening to ‘sun mana’.

Now, I can’t win even against Alan, who is a freshman, can I beat him…?

‘Impossible, absolutely.’

I bit my lip at the complicated tangled thoughts.

Even in the middle of that, the guy was getting closer and closer towards this side.

While I couldn’t make a clear judgment, I only hesitated repeatedly.

Some of the students fighting in the front line noticed Lenin walking leisurely.

“What is that? A person?”

“It looks like a human, but judging from the fact that it radiates demonic energy from its entire body, it is highly likely that it is a monster.”

“Hmm, is it a humanoid type monster? It’s the first one I’ve ever seen…”

“What do you think? Let’s deal with it quickly!”

“OK!”

A group of about five students jump at him.

Various weapons such as swords, hammers, and spears cut through the air.

“Hey, wait…! Stop everyone!!”

I came to my senses belatedly and yelled at him to stop, but it was already too late.

Because his hand was already pulling out the sword.

The unsheathed sword leaves a solid silver line in the air.

ㅡ seokkeok

The sound of chunks of meat being cut echoed,

After that, the sound of something falling to the floor is heard.

What fell to the floor were five neatly severed heads.

“……”

One of the heads that rolled on the floor a few times stopped at my feet.

Eyes wide open and fresh blood pouring out between the cut edges.

My mind went blank for a moment.

Death was instant.

A death that passed so quickly that it was impossible to even see it.

The moment he witnessed his death, no one around him could open his mouth.

“……”

“……”

It was a silence that swallowed me, Maharet, the saint, and even the cries of demons.

Read at readwn. com

Just in front of the name ‘death’, life was just overwhelmed.

The monsters moved stealthily, opening the way for death,

The students stared blankly at the corpses of their fellow students who died.

A battlefield filled with silence in an instant.

Lenin hummed amusedly at him.

“Uhhhh”

His dry nasal voice and fresh melody mix to create a bizarre tone.

He licks the blood on his sword with his tongue and starts moving again.

Through the dizzying vision, the shadow of the god of death is visible.

Alas, death is coming.

Inescapable, eternal…

ㅡTitling!

[Skill ‘Spirit of Iron’ blocks Lenin’s skill ‘Death Whisper’!]

[Noids status abnormalities (Fear, Submission, Helplessness and 4 others)!]

“Keuhuhuh…!”

At the same time as the familiar mechanical sound reverberated in my ears, my breath, which had been tight, was released.

My panicked head stabilizes, and my stiff body loosens up.

“Hee-euk… Hee-euk…”

There is something that stumbles while trying to get rid of the rumbling inside, so Lenin exclaims as if he is interested.

“Hoh…. To hold on to my momentum, your mental strength is quite useful.”

I clench my teeth and grind my body.

Spin your head quickly, looking for an answer to the current situation.

First of all, the first thing to be solved in the current situation is the students who have been crushed by Lenin’s momentum.

“Heo-euk… Haa…”

While holding back his shortness of breath, he rummaged through the cross-body bag tied to his back.

After a while, he pulled out a scroll.

Unlike the other scrolls, the golden paper had white letters engraved on it.

[-Curse Recession-]

“f*ck…! This is the most expensive of the scrolls…!!”

I grit my teeth and activate the scroll.

Brilliant light emanates, and the light illuminates the hardened students.

“Kuhhh…!”

“Su, breath…”

“How did this happen…”

Students starting to come to their senses one by one.

I shouted at them as they stood groaning.

“Everyone run away! They’re an opponent you can’t defeat with your current strength!! Go ahead and call Korn… No, call the principal!!”

Lenin is not an opponent that Alan now can do anything about.

Khorn… Khorne is needed.

“What are you doing? Don’t move quickly?!”

“Yes, yes!!”

At my exclamation, the hesitant students start to move.

Watching their backs as they run, I grip the sword of sorrow in my hand even tighter…

“Hmm… Is it a sacrifice for others? With death in front of it? I don’t know if it’s noble or stupid.”

Lenin, who came up to me before I knew it, spoke like that.

I took a deep breath and took a stance.

If everyone runs away anyway, everyone dies.

Someone has to tie this guy’s feet up here.

“f*ck, sacrificing… I’m just buying time. The kids will bring support.”

“Haha, the joke is so funny.”

The maximum I can endure is just 10 minutes.

Anything more than that will be picked off without any hesitation.

So please don’t be late, student nerds.

After muttering that to himself, he raised the tip of his sword.

At the same time, I spit out a starter word towards the dark blue sword body.

“Woe, heed my call.”

ㅡKiii Iik!!

A deafening noise resounds, and blue energy surrounds my body.

ㅡTitling!

[Use ‘Sword of Grief”s unique skill #1, ‘Super Sense’.]

Feeling the sharpening of his body, he quickly operated the shop with his left hand.

ㅡTitling!

[Effect ‘temporary explosive power’ is purchased!]

[The strength stat will rise to A rank for about 10 minutes!]

“Whoa….. f*ck, let’s hold on for 10 minutes.”

He swears at himself and steps on the staff.

Lenin looks at me with a creaky smile.

“Hmm… In that case, I’ll hang out with you for a while, little hero.”

I moved first and thrust my sword at him, and he also responded to the sword strike.

The two swords collided with a loud sound.

ㅡ Chaeyoung! Kagagagak!

Above the rust-colored battlefield, a violent rupture between metals began to reverberate.
