I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 181
Contact (1)
The dark underworld is inhabited by residents who do not see sunlight.
Danash. Underground cities built by Danan Dagda Mor of the ancient earth.
This huge underworld, built for fairies, became a retreat for demons, and many demons flocked to Danash to escape persecution.
-A middle
ground connecting the underworld. There is a large cavity like a temple there.
No, it’s actually a temple. A temple for fairies that pay tribute to Danan of Earth, who gave up the underworld called Dana Shira for the fairies.
The end of walking down a path slightly lit by a bonfire. The appearance of popularity there was easily captured by my nocturnal eyes.
“Wolves and vampires. Even the fairy elders are all here.”
“I was waiting for you, Ilusan.”
Edna took a look around the spacious conference room.
In this place where hundreds of believers were praying together, there were only about 30 people sitting down.
As this is a meeting to determine the direction of the Mine Village Association, the number of people is being selected, but this number is still small.
“I can’t see some people.”
“He died. He was helping children escape from extinction and did not survive the full moon.”
Destruction. Jeruem… refers to the holy place of the Catholic Church. Demon hunting, carried out secretly away from the eyes of Protestants and the royal family, frequently occurred in remote areas outside of bustling cities.
“Even though laws banning discrimination are enacted, these guys are acting like they don’t care. This is a sign of something.”
The person who made the lamentable guess was the elderly fairy Leprechaun.
He lived a leisurely life running a shoe shop in the village, but since he was the oldest elder, he served as the head of the mound.
“Is it a snake again?”
“……okay.”
snake. Within the mound, that title is both a derogatory term and an object of fear.
How many of them have been torn apart by snakes and their compatriots caught in the annihilation of Zeruem over the past ten years?
“Damn snake bitch… I should have killed her then.”
The one who threw a tantrum was a black york dog who was in a pack of wolves and dogs. But some who know the whole story just sigh.
“…….”
A wolf with beautiful silver fur. Kush, the wolf elder who leads the beastmen, knew that the agenda was unfavorable to me and remained silent.
A vampire elder sneers at him.
“It’s all thanks to the bastards who went crazy during the full moon and messed up their work.”
“What? Glastig…! Let’s join in!”
The wolves and dogs growled at the quarrel raised by the vampire who was their pet dog. The Great Elder did not allow the two groups, the two most powerful forces in the mound, to enter into a fight.
“Stop. What’s the use of blaming the past? This is also our karma.”
Edna did not bother to say that the anger caused by that karma has been burning us for ten years.
“As you know, the movements of the new religious sect are unusual these days.”
Before mentioning him, Edna first expanded on the situation she had gathered.
“…Yes. The saint killed the Pope and cardinals in droves.”
“The saint… must have been a representative moderate?”
“I can’t believe that kid beat the Pope and cardinals to death.”
The rampage of the saint, who instantly overturned the power structure within the church, is a cause for concern even in Mound.
Since the Witch Revolution 100 years ago, the rise of the Zeon Church has become a breakwater that prevents demons from being killed outright.
This is bound to be a cause for concern for the residents of Dana Sh, who live in hiding under the connivance of the Zeon Church.
“……Considering the saintess’s disposition, she must have been friendly towards us all along, right?”
It was Kush who opened his heavy mouth. Perhaps the one who benefited the most from the saint. Even he, who looked down on humans, took a step back when it came to saints.
“The problem is not the saint. It is that the Church of Zeon is being reorganized. Even the bishops and cardinals.”
“……no way.”
“It was discovered that Bishop Gres, who was scheduled to be recommended as the next cardinal, fled to the Jeruem shrine.”
“…….”
Kush’s silence was shared by everyone.
Very few people in the Church of Zeon are aware of the existence of Dana She’s allied group mound.
First of all, the Pope, Saint Cardinal… and a very small number of bishops. Unfortunately, Bishop Gres is in that minority.
“Isn’t it a big deal? If Bishop Gresse reveals something about Danash…!”
“It will definitely fall into the snake’s ears.”
The elders of the mound could not hide their sad feelings.
After that incident, the snake viciously hunted its own people and searched for them.
Mound was immediately struck by the irrationally persistent anger. A collision with a snake will only end if one of the two becomes extinct.
It was Edna’s words that changed the atmosphere mixed with sighing and lamentation.
“What if there was a way?”
“What do you mean?”
Edna was able to convey his message, which was scheduled to be revealed soon, sooner. This is both gambling and cheating at the same time.
“Corin Locke. He contacted me.”
Which one will accept it first?
“Head of the Union. Let’s elect the fairy king Finnvara. It’s an old tradition, but the shoemaker would know.”
“I’ll help you if you want. Join the new world.」
A forest sage who once contacted Corin Locke. Edna intuitively felt that it was self-evident that the world would be in a state of shock, no matter which of the two it was.

I remember my fight with Tates Balthazar.
“You do the basics! “Try to speed it up a bit!”
In a fierce battle that seems to test the limits of the use of territory as the poisonous dragon appears in succession. Each of his movements enlightens me.
“Don’t be too overconfident about your territory with invincible skills. “It may seem like a continuous area, but there is always a gap between activation and re-activation.”
The end of the knight’s martial arts. A statement that treated even an area as a type of technology.
His stride, the way he holds the spear, the center of gravity that extends to the tip of the spear, and artistic control.
Even before his physical ability, he was overwhelmed by his creative skills. I’ve met many strong people, but excluding him, I’ve been overwhelmed by only three in martial arts.
Sword Emperor Garand Aden.
Beautiful King Ohad Breath.
And…
“Don’t be distracted.”
puck! A spear piercing through the cracks of consciousness. Although it was treated non-lethal, the fortune-telling technique with heavy striking power hit the vital area.
“Ugh…!”
rolling around on the floor I reflexively covered my head to avoid a concussion, but I was out of breath because I got hit in the solar plexus! I’m stuck.
“Corin…!”
I see my teacher running hurriedly towards me.
Now that I think about it, I wasn’t able to defeat my teacher until the very end…….
………
……
…
I feel a lump in the back of my head. It feels like a soft lump of flesh is wrapping you comfortably. When I opened my eyes, I saw Master looking down at me.
“How long did you pass out for a few seconds?”
“About eight seconds.”
“Just leave it alone.”
“How could I do that to you?”
Master stroked my forehead with his soft palm and smiled. I can’t believe that a teacher with skin this soft and like a baby’s hand is one of the best spearmen.
“More than that, is the area where you got hit okay? I guess I used too much force inadvertently.”
“I think you’re too soft on me, Master. I think you should be a little stricter.”
“Hehe, has my future self ever scolded you?”
“Hmm… I don’t think there is one.”
“Then~ There’s no need to be strict with such a great and great disciple.”
“…….”
It’s surprising, but this person… is extremely outgoing. I’ve never heard anything bad from this person.
“Hey, why don’t you at least pretend to be angry for once?”
“Hmm…”
Master Erin looked troubled by my words. She closed the hand that had been stroking my forehead and looked at it between her fists several times before making a difficult decision.
“Gyaoooo….”
Kong! Master’s hand gently presses my forehead.
“…What was that just now?”
The teacher seemed embarrassed by my question. I cleared my throat, but what stuck out was a small voice.
“Instructor Ho Tiger?”
mimicry. Is this what you want to say?
“Hehehe…”
It was more like a cat than a tiger… and a wet cat at that.
“Ugh…”
The back of my head, which was resting on my knees, shook thanks to my teacher curling his toes. She couldn’t straighten her curved back and shoulders and asked an evasive question.
“Anyway, what were you thinking?”
“The fight with Tates.”
“Ah…”
“It’s an enemy, but I have no choice but to admit it. He’s strong. His strength and skills… he’ll have to be much stronger than he is now to be able to fight him.”
“You can do it.”
Even after receiving 740% correction, I was overwhelmed. Considering that this was a correction value that was possible because Dun Sky, Dumnorix, and Ohad Breath were all in one place, in the final battle… they would have to fight at a much lower level than this.
‘If you attack the precepts, the difference in specifications will be reduced…’
But the difference between him and me will not be simply a physical difference.
“His strength is due to his frighteningly skilled spear skills and…”
“A foreign talent. Just saying he is a martial arts talent is not enough to explain it.”
To be honest, there isn’t much difference between Master’s and Tates’ spear techniques. Skills that are so close that each person considers the other to be just a piece of paper apart. But…
“Even if I fight a hundred times, I will probably lose a hundred times. The reason I was able to defeat him 80 years ago is purely thanks to Clara.”
“What on earth is that? I’ve seen the Sword Emperor Garand fight. It felt similar to that.”
“Do you know that being strong and winning are different?”
“…Is it mental theory?”
Master shook his head and denied what I said.
“Sometimes in history, there are rare beings who were born only to fight.”
“An example would be Danan Lu, the bright man who stood up to Balor, the giant king who defeated King Nuada.
“An extraordinary talent for defeating an opponent that cannot be defeated. A heterogeneous type of martial arts that carelessly ignores the numerical values of specifications. Innate luck of victory. There is a fate that seems as if the times are giving him victory.”
I have heard similar things… from the sword emperor Garland Aden, from the swordsman Runia Aden… and from the teacher in the previous episode.
“You too, have such foreign feelings . There is power. “Have you ever had a battle where you overpowered your opponent?”
“Most of them… no.”
I was definitely prepared. I had a backup of precepts and gathered the ingredients to win. That’s why I was able to win.
” Whether it’s strength, weapons, terrain, or luck… a natural talent that can pour everything into ‘winning’──” ──The
talent for victory.
The teacher said so.
“Right now, you may still be lacking and weak. But this master is sure. You have the talent of a hero that is like your destiny. That talent is by no means inferior to Tates.”
“Something… I don’t feel it.”
I was an ordinary Earthling. I, who lived a life far away from violence, have such a talent.
“No matter what, I need to hurry up and use this talent. It has to bloom. Because the fight with that guy is really not that far away now.”
“You mean the future you experienced?”
“…Yes.”
The unforgettable nightmare that passed away after you saved me.
“Baby. My lovely disciple. This master will protect you at any cost. I have no doubt that your talent will blossom and you will succeed me—”
I pinched the bridge of Master’s nose with a clenched finger.
“What?!”
“I told you. Don’t say things like that.
” “Ugh… but I’m a teacher…”
“If you keep acting like this, I won’t even treat you like a teacher.”
“You’re going too far.” I
looked at the bridge of my nose that was red. I was lost in thought. This person is prone to sacrificing herself.
“Master, you’re going too far.”
I adjusted my posture and nuzzled my face against her thighs and navel.
“Whatever happens, don’t die. If you do that this time too… I won’t forgive you.”
“Ugh…!”
“Answer me.”
“Ha… How can I defeat you?” He
said he would defeat his disciple anyway.
“Master, you have to live with me for a long time. . “I’ll spend my whole life receiving help from my students.”
“Uh huh? Those words… Hmm…”
For some reason, Master’s voice was like candy melting in the sun. When I looked up, I saw that the Master was blushing and covering his face with both hands.
“Master?”
“Ugh. .. wait for a sec. “Let’s stay
like this for a moment.” Why are you like this? You did this often in previous episodes, but this episode is especially frequent.
Well, Master says so, so I have to do it. I like rubbing my face on Master’s soft thighs.
-Jii-ing!
“Oh my.”
Unfortunately, this happy time seems to be coming to an end.
“Student Corinne, as you said… what are you doing?”
I turned my head and saw Lady Josephine looking at me with a frown.
“Professor, could you please lend me your knee too?” ?”
“Ha… this is not the time. Student Corin: It happened just as you said.”
“What does that mean?”
“Yes, it’s at a dangerous level. Looks like we need to move.”
“I think it’s 5 days before school starts. It’s a little late.”
“Corin, is this what you said?”
“Yes, but it went as planned.”
Master understood what I meant as if it were obvious. Information shared only with Master and Lady Josephine, who also serves as security and command center.
Preparation based on events that will occur in the future. The event that will mark the end of this summer vacation was caught on Mrs. Josephine’s radar.
“Let’s get ready. It’s the last event before school starts. You know what I gave you before, right? Put it on your head.”
“Ugh… I had it because my student gave it to me, but why do I have this?”
“Uh-huh, there’s a reason for everything. Professor Josephine, too.”
“……If you want to hide your identity, wouldn’t a mask be better?”
“You don’t particularly want to hide it?”
I grinned, tying the scratched circlet on my head.
* * * *
The first day of school . As they approached, they attacked a first-year student returning to Merkava Academy, but were intercepted by an unexpected obstacle. A
strange strong man who did not waver even in the face of dozens of professional assassins. Although he
looked young, he was fearful and wary at best. Not a single hair is visible.
“Hmm….”
“Haa…”
And behind them, there are two women wearing strangely scratched circlets. The saboteur who appears, leading them like flowers in both hands, is the student who was the target. I waved my hand at him.
“You can see everything from here, Junior Rashid?”
“Senior Senior? The chairman and the head professor too?!”
The assassins were shaken by the words of the target who was looking up at them with a blank expression.
The chairman and the chief professor of the academy? Aside from the chairman, the only chief professor at Merkava is the Witch of Space.
“Hey, you guys. .”
A young man named Seonbae appeared, leading such big men. He looked down at the assassins and asked,
“Do you know why we are strong?”
Before he could react to anything, he shouted as if he had been looking forward to this situation and this line.
” That’s because he’s a runaway ninja——billion! Professor Josephine?”
“It’s embarrassing, so please don’t do something like that.”
“Clara… Why are you killing our Corinne?”
“……No.”
“”…………. ……””
