86 – Assault – 1

“Layna! Mr. Ike! Miss Michelle!”

The first to greet us after arriving at the fort on the front line after about 3 hours was Sophia.

“Sophia senior!”

As soon as Michelle saw her Sophia, she smiled broadly, and then she ran towards her and hugged her.

“I didn’t expect Miss Michelle to come here.”

Sophia looked at Reina, stroking Michelle’s hair in her arms as if she were used to it.

“Because Miss Michelle has enough skills.”

I agree with what Reina said.

Michelle has been hanging out with us for about 2 months.

She’s been taking lessons from Reina, Leon, and Atal almost every single day.

Perhaps one Michelle would be better than bringing all the other freshmen gathered in the auditorium earlier.

At least that’s what I thought.

“You’re here at last, Ike.”

“I didn’t train to watch in this situation.”

“You have a wonderful attitude, Prince Ike.”

“Are you senior Andrew, by any chance?”

“Oh, yes. This is Andrew Davies, a 3rd year student. Please take good care of me.”

“That, Andrew senior, who is the only one in the 3rd year who wants to be a knight, is right?”

And besides them, me and Leon, Atal, Helen, and senior Andrew were talking to each other when I heard a coughing sound from the side.

“Hmmm. Would it be all right if we started talking?”

“Oh, yes. Sorry.”

The large man, who introduced himself as the commander-in-chief of the front line, Gail Loike, quietly opened the map and started talking.

“The situation is exactly what you have been told. Demonic beasts that only appeared in the east and west suddenly appear here in large numbers on the southern frontline. We are blocking them as much as possible with our existing troops, but the difference in numbers is extreme. The east and west said they would send troops as quickly as possible, but considering the distance, it would take three days at the earliest, so I asked for your support.”

There were already several X’s written on the map.

Perhaps it refers to a fortress that was abandoned because it could not handle the number of monsters.

“Right now, we need help in three places. The first is the front line where the largest number of monsters are currently. I want to ask the professors about this place, is that okay?”

“Okay.”

Commander Gail pointed out on the map the battle line further ahead of this fortress, and Dean Ender replied on behalf of him.

“And the second is a stronghold created for the injured to recover quickly. We ask Her Highness Leon, Atal-nim, Sofia-nim, and Michelle-nim for this place.”

Then Commander-in-Chief Gail pointed to the coordinates to the left and rear of the front lines mentioned earlier.

Leon, Atal, Sofia, and Michel nodded quietly.

“And the last one is this side of the fortress that needs supplies. This place is for Ike-sama, Raina-sama, Helen-sama, and Andrew-sama.”

The last place he pointed to was the rightmost coordinate.

When we were pointed out, we all nodded at the same time.

“Then….”

“Wait a minute!”

And then Commander Gail cut off what he was about to say and the person who appeared was an unexpected, truly unexpected person.

A woman with a long scar that runs from her right eye to her left eye.

The healing wizard who healed my messy body after saving Anna last year.

“… You are?”

“What? Hey, does anyone know me?”

It was Elin.

“I’m glad Anna is doing well.”

“How did you come here?”

“My little brother asked me to do it. It’s a difficult opponent to refuse, so it somehow ended up like this.”

Elin, whom I hadn’t seen in a really long time, was not much different from what I remembered.

She has a comfortable and somewhat mysterious atmosphere that can only be felt from someone who has attained liberation.

It was a really short meeting, but she was an impressive person.

“May the blessings of the god Eos dwell upon you.”

After Elin prayed for a blessing like the last time, she walked away with Leon’s group.

“Are you an acquaintance of Anna?”

“Yes. I happened to meet her once, and that helped her greatly.”

“I will have to thank you when I see you later.”

We chatted casually as we walked to the fort to resupply.

There was no article to guide me there, but I was given a map so it didn’t matter.

Commander Gail explained that all but the minimum number of people were put into the field.

“I want to practice sparring with my seniors later, is that okay?”

“You are welcome, Miss Helen.”

As it turned out, senior Andrew was a famous person in the 3rd grade.

Helen opened her eyes and explained that she was the only knight aspiring to be a knight in her current 3rd year, and that she was receiving a lot of attention because her skills had grown exponentially this year.

“I was also curious about Miss Helen’s skills.”

“It’s an honor!”

“Hey. You two must be quite confident in your skills, don’t you?”

“It’s not that I’m confident in my skills, it’s that I believe in the efforts I’ve made so far.”

“That’s a good attitude. I don’t understand.”

“Yes?”

“Reina!”

“Ms. Helen!”

Senior Andrew and I acted swiftly.

I threw myself in front of Reina, and Andrew wrapped her arms around Helen.

Boom! And there was a roar of something exploding.

And there was a huge pit dug right where we were walking.

“To avoid that. Aren’t you two pretty good?”

The direction the voice came from was not from the ground, but from above.

“You?”

Senior Andrew took the first step and opened his mouth.

Hanging in the air was an unidentified figure covering his face with a hood.

The only thing you can tell is the voice, that the other person is a woman.

But at least I knew for sure why the opponent attacked us.

The battle with the demon, an incident that did not appear in the original work.

A stranger who appeared as a result of moving to help it.

The situation was explaining to me that she was definitely someone from Avatar.

“You wonder who I am? You will all die anyway.”

There is only one opponent. We are four

In terms of numbers alone, this side had the upper hand.

However, the opponent didn’t seem to feel threatened at all in that respect.

“… But, wouldn’t it be polite to let us know who is going to kill you?”

The woman giggled, then she slowly pulled back the hood that was covering her face.

In contrast to the soft, straight blue hair, sharp eyes. There is a tear mark under the right eye. And raised lip corners.

He looked young enough to look like he was in his mid-teens.

But above all else, the most distinctive part is her pink eyes that don’t feel alive at all.

“I belong to Avatar.”

Yes. This guy is one of Avatar’s executives.

Contrary to his youthful appearance, he has a very cruel personality and is one of the opponents that Sophia and Leon struggled with in the original work.

The name is….

“My name is Escruel. Please take good care of me.”

“Who are you?”

At Leon’s question, the hooded man laughed quietly.

“Does such a question make sense in the current situation?”

It was the voice of a young boy, but Leon, Sophia, Atal, and Michelle looked around and were not at all vigilant.

“Ho, by any chance you are hearing… ?”

“Perhaps, that thought is the correct answer, Mr. Elin.”

And the low, creepy sounds around her stimulated her blind Elin’s senses.

“But, well, since you said you don’t really need to hide it anymore, it should be fine.”

The man revealed himself by taking off his hood.

Fruppy dark blue hair and drooping eyes. The corners of the mouth that show no emotion. Teardrop under the left eye.

He looked young enough to look like he was in his mid-teens.

But above all else, the most distinctive part is her pink eyes that don’t feel alive at all.

“I am your enemy. I belong to Avatar.”

And around him.

“My name is Ed Cruell. Goodbye.”

The 10 monsters were growling.

“You are Ike Access. You are Reina Rogelia. Right?”

“….”

S asked while pointing his finger at me and Reina in turn.

“Hmm. Too bad. You two are completely my taste.”

But none of us spoke up.

“I really want to live my life as a toy for the rest of my life, but it’s a pity. Orders have been given to kill the two of you unconditionally.”

“… What is that?”

“I’d like to secretly keep him alive and take him home, but Uncle Rex is too smart. It’s hard for her to let you live because she’s probably going to notice if it’s only been a week.”

She didn’t listen to me.

She uttered only her own words, and was engrossed in it as if it were an unchanging reality.

“So here I will kill you myself. It will hurt a little bit, but I have to endure it.”

At the same time, S, who was standing in the air, disappeared in an instant.

“Awesome!”

Helen was the first to be targeted.

Es reappeared from Helen’s right before she knew it and threw her fist at her.

“Are you Helen Oberon? She fights with martial arts without weapons.”

Fortunately, Helen’s reaction was prompt as well.

She put her elbow out towards her flying fist to block her attack, and immediately put out her left palm to shove her s.

But she couldn’t stop S.

“I am just like you.”

Es, who disappeared in an instant and reappeared from her left side, gave her a strong kick in Helen’s abdomen.

“Kyaat!”

With her screams, Helen was thrown back and flew, crashing hard into a tree.

Fortunately, however, Helen was protected by Reina’s magic.

“Just now, what was that?”

Andrew sunbaenim’s eyes were that he saw something that shouldn’t exist.

No, to be precise, everyone except me had that look in their eyes.

“Hmm. I was going to kill you, but did you stop it?”

At some point, S was far away from us again.

It was a speed that transcended the high-speed movement of wind-attribute magic, literally surpassing human limits.

For those who don’t know anything.

“Teleportation.”

“… hehehe?”

When I quietly opened my mouth, S’s elated expression hardened.

But that was the case with everyone else too.

“What do you mean, Ike? Teleportation magic can’t move a person’s body. There are other tricks….”

“No, that’s for sure. That movement just now must have been teleportation.”

“… How do you know?”

At my confident words, S narrowed his eyes and looked at me.

The same smile as before did not remain.

In S’s serious expression, there was clearly a murderous spirit.

“If you guys know, it absolutely shouldn’t happen, but what the hell happened? I don’t know. I wonder if Ed’s brother knows.”

S sighed for the last time, licked his lips softly, and smiled again.

“Well, it doesn’t matter, does it? I will kill them all anyway.”

“… Judging from that reaction, it looks like it’s really teleportation.”

“Yes.”

“But I can’t kill you easily. Especially Ike. I’ll bully you until you reveal all the information you know.”

With those words, the battle with the Avatar executives began.
