87 – Skirmish – 2

There was no sign of the end of the hallway going forward.

And if there was something that bothered me even more, it was that when I moved forward, an explosion suddenly occurred from behind and blocked the retreat.

As if to never get out of here, as if to be buried here and die.

“…Professor, is there an end to this?”

Charlotte asks, looking around with a concerned expression.

“There must be an end. Either way, one thing is certain.”

“Which one?”

“This hallway won’t do anything to us unless we do something stupid. It has become very certain.”

Then all eyes turned to Isabel.

Yeah, there’s one guy here who did something stupid… Isabelle smiles, hehehe, as if she’s sorry.

“Sir, you can make mistakes~ And I chose it with good intentions. As a student majoring in healing, I couldn’t stand it.”

“A kid like that ran out in the first place.”

Michelle’s stupid murder. In the end, Isabel had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.

Adrian studied the map stealthily so as not to be seen by the students.

Vivian really put a lot of effort into it. When I opened the map, I could see at once roughly where they were located.

‘It’s like a maze.’

Of course, Rahal Academy did not make this space like a maze. These guys really just made a hallway purely.

However, you can’t just follow the corridor to get there as shown on the map. I have to find another path that is like a maze.

Knock-knock, Adrian started walking, tapping the side of the hallway.

“Professor, why are you like that?”

“You guys do the same.”

Kung-kung, I don’t know why, but everyone silently followed his words.

I started walking, tapping the walls here and there.

‘Didn’t I tell you not to do stupid things?’

Michelle thought to herself. What if it explodes again?

I still have to do it, what should I do? They were children who trusted Adrian enough to take off their clothes when he asked them to do so.

It wasn’t difficult, but I got tired of doing it without knowing why. But nonetheless, everyone did it in silence.

“Professor Adrian.”

Isabelle called Adrian.

Everyone turns to Isabelle with sharp eyes. Isabelle waved her hands.

“I’m not calling you for a strange reason!”

“…If you do, everything is uneasy.”

“No!”

Isabel was genuinely resentful, but what can I do?

She had quite a lot of karma accumulated without her knowledge.

Excitedly stepping out and then increasing the amount of assignments, excitedly stepping out and getting deductions, excitedly stepping out and extending the lecture time, etc… The hallway exploded just before.

“What is going on?”

Adrian asks. Isabelle thought for a moment before opening her mouth.

“I just knocked on the wall, but only here the sound is a little different… ”

“Hey!”

“Yai!”

“Oh really! Are you Isabel again?”

The other three got ready to run again.

How did I end up with this image… Isabelle felt her eyes moisten.

“Well done.”

However, Adrian showed an unexpected reaction. She walks over to Isabel and points at the wall with her index finger.

“Is this the wall? Does this wall sound different?”

“uh… Yes.”

Pew-!

At the same time as Isabelle’s answer, Adrian set off an explosion on the wall.

Then the wall collapses, revealing another passage. An invisible exclamation mark rises above the heads of the party.

“let’s go.”

Adrian takes the lead.

The students followed with the faces of ‘As expected, something good is happening~’, but Adrian’s face became slightly serious.

As soon as you enter this passageway, you can feel the faint scent of demons.

Since the place where Lepistar’s wand is is the escape route from this maze space, walking along this passage is inevitable.

‘But the incense is more dangerous than I thought.’

Dragon’s scent. There are quite a few guys who are about the same size as Malygos.

I thought Regita went out on her own, but it doesn’t seem to be the case again.

Demon dragons basically have a very strong sense of pride that they can do it alone, so they often move alone.

Why, isn’t that why, even in legends, only one dragon sleeps in a cave?

However, looking at the fact that not a few demon dragons were mobilized, it seems that Regita also had a lot of medicine this time.

‘I’m fine, but the students are the problem.’

will protect certainly.

The role here is not Jekiel, but Adrian.

A professor who has to protect his students no matter what. Adrian.

Chewing his lower lip, Adrian took another step.

“Lady Regita… ”

Neltharion peered into Regita’s eyes.

“Could you give me a little more time? Since there is no map, everyone is having a hard time digging this road and that road. I think I need a break.”

“yes.”

“……?”

You accept it so easily? Neltharion flinched.

“Why?”

“Oh, no. You’re not as angry as I thought… ”

“Those who want to die are told to rest. He said he would rest forever, but there is no reason not to allow it.”

“……”

Then it is.

Neltharion looked around at the demon dragons around him with worried eyes.

If you destroy the wall on this side of the hallway, a path will appear, and if you destroy the wall on the other side, a path will appear. I can’t figure out where the hell to go.

That said, you can’t suggest ‘let’s walk all the way step by step’ when there is a register.

Regita fiddled with the handle of her great sword a few times.

“Stuffy things.”

After muttering that, he swung his greatsword once.

Kwagwagwagwa—!

Golden waves extending from the sword pierced the wall. It turns what used to be a wall into a road.

At this level of roar, people over there might notice our presence, but… well, it’s okay There was also an intention to say so out loud.

“Let’s go this way.”

Regita pointed to the place where the wave had just been released with her sword.

‘Jekyel.’

Regita could sense that he was in this direction.

I can feel the energy of a top-notch object that can’t be hidden at all.

What annoyed Regita a little was that he wasn’t hiding that aura at all.

Isn’t that too cheeky? That attitude, as if he was telling me to come and attack him.

‘Yes, I’ll go directly from this side as you wish.’

In any case, it is inevitable that Jekiel must be killed in order to obtain Lepista’s wand. Because that’s the only way you can steal the map.

Kwagwagidae—!

Regita continues to create a path with sword strikes, followed by her henchmen.

I’m going to do this from the beginning. To be honest, there were some henchmen who had such complaints. I never got it out of my mouth.

Anyway, Neltharion walks all the way and suddenly asks Regita.

“Hey, Lady Regita.”

“Why.”

“Why is Jekiel trying to obtain Lepista’s wand?”

Neltharion tilts his head.

“Obviously at Christine’s coronation, it seemed like she was trying to protect her. But in order to protect her, isn’t it a better decision not to touch Lepista’s wand?”

“I do not know either.”

And that’s why he’s even more annoying. Regita laughed.

But Neltharion’s questions continued.

“I don’t know what the hell you’re thinking. Even while preparing for a collision with Regita-sama, he behaved in contradiction with his previous actions… ”

“Certainly, it is contradictory.”

“Ah, come to think of it, they say that they are now disguising themselves as professors at this academy. Have you ever had a crush on humans? He’s trying to process Lepista’s wand and put it in the hands of a human wizard… ”

“Do you think that makes sense?”

There is silence for about three seconds.

“…that doesn’t seem to make sense either.”

“Don’t try to understand his behavior.”

“Yes?”

“That Jekyel is a guy who has more things to hide than Vivian, that bastard snake. It’s been like that before. Even if you seem to be loyal to the Demon King, you’re plotting something for your fiancé… There must be an ulterior motive this time too.”

Regita’s eyes began to shine.

“So we just need to get our wands and kill Jekiel. don’t try to understand Because he is someone we will never understand.”

Even if it seemed like she was simply trying to pass it off, Regita’s words weren’t wrong in every word.

The moment Neltharion was about to add a word of apology.

“…found.”

While muttering that, Regita swung her greatsword once more.

Kwagwagwagwa—!

Waves derived from the tip of the sword fly endlessly and pierce the path.

It stretches out for a long time, and makes the open space come into view.

It was the most ignorant way in the world. Just going through all the walls to get to the center.

However, in front of Regita’s power, such a method transforms into the most efficient method.

The demon dragons sniffed in unison. From that open space, the smell of vampires was thick.

“Go get that bastard. right now.”

At the same time, the demon dragons kicked the ground all at once.
