Academy’s Genius Swordmaster - Chapter 305

[ 305. Decisive battle (12) ]

#305

【Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!】

Navardoze roared. The moment she opened her mouth and let out a breath, crimson fire poured out like a tidal wave.

Whoa! The flames that would burn down quite a few countries at once covered the field of view. After a while, the flames died down, and the unchanging landscape unfolded before our eyes.

【…This time too.】

She gritted her teeth while catching her breath. No cracks or scorch could be found in the pure white space. Hundreds of escape attempts had already been made, but all in vain.

During the battle with Abel, she was imprisoned in this subspace. He seemed to have used some trick, but I couldn’t figure out the details. Just as he was about to deliver the final blow, he remembered only that Abel had taken out a stone or something.

【Children… are dangerous.】

Navardoze drooled. Everyone was worried and couldn’t stand it. I couldn’t even guess how much time had passed in this place where nothing existed.

If there was no confidence, there was no one on the Allied Forces who could handle Abel. It was the tea she was tormented by her own weakness. Suddenly, a familiar voice came from below.

“What are you still not giving up on?”

【You…!】

Navardoze lowered his gaze. Abel, now in a state of disrepair, caught my eye. Abel, who had lost one of his limbs, stood on his feet, using his sword as a staff.

【This guy!】

Kwaaaang-! Without hesitation, she raised her foot and crushed Abel. After confirming that he couldn’t feel anything, Navardoze frowned. Abel’s voice echoed.

“no use. Because I’m just an idea, not a real thing. I came to see you just in case, but you’re really persistent.”

Then Abel’s form reappeared at Navardoze’s feet. His translucent body, like a spirit, proved that his words were true. bang! Navardoze, who trampled on Abel once again, shouted in an angry voice.

【What on earth were you thinking to lock me up here!】

“I’m sorry you’re so strong. I wrote the only one sealing stone, but I should know it as an honor. Originally, it wasn’t meant for you, but…”

Abel clicked his tongue. In fact, the sealing stone he used on Navardoze was an item with a separate owner. It was fortunate that Ronan, who appeared at the right time, was stronger than expected.

“Anyway, you will never escape from here. He’ll probably be locked up forever if I don’t release him. But don’t worry too much. I’ll kill you personally as soon as I’m done.”

【Stop talking nonsense and send it out immediately!】

“Then see you soon.”

Abel ignored her screams and said goodbye. His blurred form completely disappeared. Navardoze, who could not hold back his anger and spewed fire, spat out curse words.

【Damn it…】

Navardoze spat out a curse. Wrapped in light, her body returned to human form. Taking a slow breath, she slumped back into her seat.

“Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…”

It was miniaturization to save power. Of course, after taking a short break, he would try to escape again, but after bumping into him at this point, the thought that Abel’s words might be true came creeping up.

“Really…does it have to be like this?”

I’ve lived an immeasurably long time, but this is the first time I’ve ever faced a crisis like this. She was imagining the worst possible future. Suddenly, a black horizontal line was drawn across the white space in front of me.

“hmm?”

Navardoze raised his eyebrows at a phenomenon he had never seen before. The horizontal line stopped only after it completely bisected the field of vision.

Then, another vertical line was drawn around that line. Then diagonal lines began to be drawn rapidly in different directions.

“…what?”

It was something unknown. It was like drawing a circle. Before long, the landscape in front of my eyes, covered with lines, turned completely black.

It was a color reminiscent of the abyss of the universe. Intrigued, Navardoze was about to move slowly. Someone’s voice echoed in the darkness.

“Ah, it’s open. I’m so glad.”

“what?”

Navardoze’s eyes widened. I’m sure I’ve heard that loud voice before. Before long, two men walked out of the middle of the darkness. Navardoze, who encountered them, froze in place.

“You guys…!”

****

[The 3rd 5th Unit. Fire!]

Adeshan shouted. The detached unit, which was reorganized on the spot, opened fire. It was a support shot to help Ronan fight the King of Giants. All of the people whose eyes were stained were those whose minds were controlled by Adeshan.

Kwakwang! bang! All kinds of projectiles and destructive magic were fired at the giants. The sight of hundreds of lumps cutting through the sky was quite spectacular. Most of them missed, but they were playing a role in keeping the giants in check.

『You foolish mortals. Stop resisting.]

『Useless.』

The giants were avoiding attacks or defending as much as possible, apart from their condescending attitude. There was plenty of Ronan’s blood on it, so I couldn’t just believe in God’s protection and run wild.

Because Adeshan invested all of Ronan’s remaining blood in the detached unit, the power itself was different from before. Those who had been hit by chance stumbled and groaned in pain.

『Umm…!』

[Don’t give me a chance to catch my breath. 1st 24th unit. Launch!]

[I can’t stop right now…ugh]

Blue blood splattered whenever the roar exploded. Of course, the giants weren’t idiots, so the counterattack came back. Shih! Each of the spears of light striking the ground possessed the power to annihilate all units.

[Keep your seat.]

The detached unit was exposed to danger as it was outside the tent Asher had built for the interception. However, instead of distributing and distributing the troops, Adeshan concentrated them close together.

Sensing that the windows of light came within a certain range, she turned to the savior and said.

“please.”

“I know.”

The savior who gulped down the mana potion reached out. A hexagonal shield created in the air blocked the windows of light.

Wow! The backlight fell with the explosion. They were so few in number compared to the entire Allied force that even wounded saviors were able to defend them.

“Are you okay?”

“Yes…I’m glad to be of any help like this.”

The savior who had somehow recovered was squeezing out his last ounce of energy. The battleship Dainhar, which had been stuck on the ground, was also in operation again. Dozens of beams fired from all over the rock were keeping them in check.

“Has my daughter… not caught yet?”

“yes. Their movements are so erratic that they are struggling to catch up. However, since we are forming a siege, it will be resolved soon.”

“Yeah… Cool, only you will believe that part.”

The savior nodded. Currently, the biggest task given to people on the surface is to catch the irils and release their abilities. Believing that Ronan would inevitably defeat the king of giants.

‘As expected, he’s a great person.’

Ronan glanced down and laughed. About 100,000 people were moving in an orderly manner. If you only look at the elaborateness of the formation or movement, it was rather better than when people were sane.

‘Originally, he was the one who commanded a million people.’

The general’s skill did not decline at all compared to his previous life. Even in the fourth life, where only spectators were allowed, it was rather more developed to see if there was something felt and learned. Suddenly, the king’s voice came from the front.

『You cowardly mortal…!

』 Did you call?”

Ronan raised his head. The king of giants was growling and gasping for breath.

Blue blood was still seeping from the wounds on his neck and chest. Compared to the first time, it had healed a lot, but it seemed that it was not easy to heal because the original body was deep.

Moreover, dozens of invisible cuts were engraved on the king’s body. They were all engraved by Ronan after the second battle began.

Blood was flowing non-stop from the minor wounds. It was because he couldn’t take care of other places because he was covering up the wounds on his neck and chest. After Ronan found out about it, he continued to draw his sword only where it was difficult to defend.

‘Originally, this is how large beasts are caught.’

Excessive bleeding was fatal even for the giant race. Ronan’s changed fighting style was very effective in arousing the king’s anger. He shouted as he spread his eight wings at once.

『Don’t play around, face it properly! Where did the dignified spirit of a moment ago go!”

“I gave it to the dog.”

『This little creature dares to…』

The king was about to say something. Ronan pointed the tip of his sword at the king. As the glow of the sunset deepened, the force of gravity intensified.

Faaaaang! Ronan, who was fired at the king, fired another slash. The sluggish king couldn’t move as quickly as before. La Mancha, which flew in with a long tail, passed by cutting the king’s calf.

『Keuugh!』

“Same seat as Oh.”

Seeing blood gushing out, Ronan whistled. The king was really strong, but the original match was decided due to unpredictable variables. Whoa! Ronan, who lightly avoided the king’s sword, opened his mouth.

“The moment I allowed that attack, it was over. you lost.”

“Your self-indulgence has gone too far. Such nonsense… 100 million!]

Ronan slashed once more before the king could even speak. This time, blood splattered around the elbow.

『Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! 』

Viscount Chow! The king, who was continuously attacked in different parts, burst into anger. It was absurd, but I felt like I could really lose at this rate. Having reached the limit of his patience, he raised his greatsword high and shouted.

『Come on, then I will destroy the things you want to protect! Stop it!”

“What?”

Ronan’s eyes widened. For some reason, the dialogue was unusual. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…! Particles of light gathered from all directions began to swirl around the greatsword. he exclaimed.

“Damn it stop!”

It was not difficult to realize what the king was up to. Like Ronan, he changed his strategy and was trying to blow up the forces on the ground first.

‘Damn, it’s a skill I saved.’

Ronan twitched his lips. Asher and Adeshan were holding on, but if something like that fell, there was a high probability that they wouldn’t be able to hold on. He took a deep breath and grabbed the hilt.

‘Opportunity is once.’

It seemed that I had to use a spleen number. Originally, it was a technique that I was going to use in a situation where it was clear that I could finish it, but I couldn’t help it.

It was the moment when he measured the distance and tried to activate the mana in his whole body. Phew-! The clouds that covered the sky dissipated like an explosion.

“Damn what?!”

Ronan, startled, spat out a curse. A wide, dark shadow fell over the land.

Sensing the hairs on the nape of his neck, Ronan turned his head. On the other side of the starry night sky, a red dragon so huge that the giant king seemed small was descending, cutting through the wind.

“Navardoze…!”

[What?]

Ronan’s eyes widened. It was unmistakably the mother of fire. It was the moment when the king, who had been gathering strength, turned his head one step too late. Kwajik! Navardoze, who had been rushing in like an eagle seeking prey, stamped his chest down with his hind foot.

[Is this the head of them!]

『Kooooouk!』

Navardoze exclaimed. Blood gushed out of the king’s mouth. Unfortunately, the spot where he was hit coincided with a deep cut on Ronan.

Navardoze fell to the ground as if he had trampled on the king. Kwaaaang-! Even if a volcano had exploded, a roaring sound shook the ground. Ronan, who had regained his strength, exclaimed.

“He was really alive…!”

It was a miraculous recovery. As Adeshan said, Navardoze did not die. It was in the midst of Ronan admiring her speed and competence. Adeshan, who was dumbfounded, murmured softly.

“I haven’t sent a detached unit yet…”

Judging that calming Irill was the priority, they hadn’t assigned personnel to Navardoze yet. I couldn’t figure out what happened.

『Your Majesty…!』

The giants attacking the ground burst into embarrassment. They were about to turn in haste to help the king. Aaaah-! Two beams of light rushing in from behind the clouds swept the giants.

『Huh!』

『Kuk…!』

A cry mixed with pain burst out. Most of them were because they lost their protection in battles with the ground forces. The rays, intense enough to turn night into day, inflicted severe burns on the giants’ skin.

The voices of a man and a woman resounded from above the sky from which Navardoze had descended.

【Fortunately-】

【Looks like it’s not too late.】

“This voice.”

It was a speech I will never forget. Before long, a giant figure comparable to Navardoze appeared. The golden scales covered with scars were still beautiful enough to exude admiration. Ronan involuntarily exclaimed at the sight of the two-headed dragon after a long time.

“Dragon King…!”
