I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 231
Savages (2)
In the scorching heat, a dozen female warriors appeared in front of Corin, as if time had stopped.
Unique shield and spear. Female warriors wearing winged accessories. Corin immediately realized that they were Valkyries, the great warriors of the gods.
The female warriors of the main god with eternal youth and beauty.
Commander of warriors with the authority to open the 540 doors leading to Valhalla. There are a total of 17 people, which means that 17 ‘doors’ can be opened.
“Okay…”
One of the women in the long line stepped forward.
A large woman reaching 2.5m. She is Thrud, the ‘strong one’ who holds a warhammer so large that it can crush a mammoth’s skull in an instant.
She is the daughter of Thor, the god of thunder, and the strongest Valkyrie.
“You dare to see Brünnhild?”
Thrud’s voice oppressed and oppressed the air. As if the air had become a heavy lump of iron.
Corrin knew the power of Thrud. He is so powerful that he can even swing the hammer left behind by Thor, the god of thunder. Nevertheless, he still had a calm face.
“Okay, let’s meet the leaders face to face and resolve it through words.”
“You are so self-indulgent as a mortal. If you want to see her, first defeat me. Defeat the sisters behind me as well. Only then will you be able to have an audience with the leader of the Shield Maiden, the last divinity after the end of the gods. .”
“Wasn’t it a curse from the main god rather than divinity?”
“You…!”
“I will challenge Brünnhild’s ‘Wall of Fire.’”
“……!!”
Distorted facial expressions. Corrin had a confident expression on his face.
* * * *
Brünnhild, the leader of the Valkyries, had a curse that had not been lifted for a long time.
After disobeying the Lord’s orders in the past, the Lord placed her in eternal sleep surrounded by an unquenchable wall of fire.
The curse can only be lifted by passing through this wall of fire and removing her chainmail while she sleeps… The problem is that the main subject of the curse was eaten by the wolf of the apocalypse.
The end of myth.
With the death of the main god, the curse on Brünnhild was lifted. Only half.
The gods fell and Brünnhild woke up. But the curse still remained on her.
“Only the one who passes the wall of fire and removes Brünnhild’s armor will lift the curse.”
Because of that prophecy, how many free people challenged the fire of God?
The half-giant wearing a huge bear skin, the shaman who was called the wisest, and the great warrior who won the most duels.
It could not pass through the fire of the god protecting Brünnhild’s armor.
That man is going to challenge something that no one else is challenging anymore?
“So… you’re going to go through the ‘Wall of Fire’?”
Brünnhild, the leader of the Valkyries, who has eternal virginity due to a curse from God. Corin Locke stood in front of him.
“If I pass the wall, will you belong to me?”
In response to that wanton question, the silver beauty nodded with an empty gaze.
“But that is only possible if you pass through the fire of the Lord.”
At that moment, a fire began to burn around Brünnhild.
A remnant of God’s curse. A fire that burns all men. It was such a fire that even atheists, who would whine that such a thing was impossible in a mythological tale, would worship God.
-Quaaaaa!
A roaring flame. A pillar of fire that melts snow and evaporates the melted water even in the harsh cold weather.
The curse of God Odin that no one can surpass, no one can pass through, and no one can overcome.
‘No strong man could withstand that fire.’
‘No warrior could overcome that fire.’
Now, all that remains of God is his sorrow for his sisters. Among the sisters who deviated from Brünnhild, there was one who rebelled against the curse of that god.
The Valkyries hated the curse that they could not escape with their own strength.
“It is the fire of God.”
Corin took a step towards the fire that no one could overcome.
“You idiot… you’re going to die.”
“This is a fire that no one has passed through for over a thousand years!”
Corin Locke. I know that he is a warrior with great power. But has there been no warrior comparable to him throughout the ages?
Many warriors challenged that fire and wanted to take over the leadership of the Valkyries.
However, no one could overcome that fire.
The curse of the main god, which was harsher than anyone else’s on the shield maiden who disobeyed his orders, was that strong.
“You can’t burn me with fire like this.”
However, Corin breaks through the wall of fire without the slightest hesitation.
Everyone expected him to scream and turn to ashes, but the result was different.
“what…!”
“Unbelievable!”
Horrible wild people. Corin Locke He managed to overcome the wall of fire.
Klau Solas’ absolute power. Resistant to all heat and fire. Even the fire of God could not escape this law.
While everyone was dumbfounded by the incredible sight of him passing through fire that no man had been able to overcome for thousands of years, Corin was facing Brünnhild.
A beautiful silver-haired shield maiden. The shiny chain armor is a fruit that Corin must take off.
“I have a suggestion.”
However, Corin did not exercise his legitimate rights. He did not covet a result that surpassed even God’s curse, but rather proposed it.
“Could you please follow my advice for the time being? I will save you as well.”
“…….”
He is an amazing young man.
Brünnhild did not understand why this suggestion was made.
“All you have to do is take off my armor and give me orders, as the Lord allows.”
That was a legitimate myth and the right of the warrior. They call them Valkyries and great warriors of God, but they are ultimately also trophies of myth.
The Lord prophesied that he would give the leader of the Valkyries to a great warrior, and she had to follow suit.
“It’s so old. It’s like something out of an old myth or fairy tale. These days, if you kiss a sleeping woman, you get caught.”
Corin laughed and rejected this.
“What do you want?”
“Win-win.”
He respects Brünnhild and makes fair suggestions.
“Let’s accept the Northerners as a wall. Instead, they too will participate in this war.”
“Do you… know the situation in North Kingdom?”
“There must be an uninvited guest named Balthazar who is making a fuss. That guy is the guy who is going to execute me. That guy is in a bit of a temper tantrum.”
“…….”
Brünnhild’s eyes turned to the spear held by Corin. Then he seemed to understand something.
The ‘man with a spear’ who will change the fate of the Valkyries predicted by Skuld, the Sister of Prophecy. It might be Corin Locke.
“Would you please cooperate with me?”
“…Why?”
“yes?”
“For a long time, you despised and rejected the free people, calling them wild people. The free people also plundered you for a long time.”
But I was wondering why they were reaching out to us.
“Um… well, there’s no particular reason.”
When asked this question, there is only one thing he can give in return.
“The best thing is for fewer people to die. Because human life is the most expensive.”
He always wanted only one thing.
happy ending.
* * * *
The agreement was concluded dramatically.
Instead of housing North Kingdom’s 230,000 free people beyond the wall, warriors who can fight are used as troops for the wall.
Of course, there were many who opposed it.
Immediately, the northerners cried out that they could not trust us, and the guards of the walled city and the guardians who followed me also expressed concern.
Even though he didn’t express it directly, he looked at me like I was crazy.
The Northerners were persuaded by their spiritual masters, the Valkyries, and I, as one of the few nobles in this city, insisted.
“In case of an emergency, we will also take responsibility.”
And the people with me must be ordinary people.
Lady Joséphine, a great woman in history, and heir to the Duke of Dunareff. Even the full support of the next head of the Arden House and Saint Estelle.
Well, you won’t get stabbed for bringing barbarians to the wall.
“Are you okay?”
Brünnhild asked.
“What?”
“This is close to political suicide. There is no one higher than you in this position right now, so it will become a problem later.”
“Well… if the results are good, everything will pass.”
The player is superhuman. He is the main character and the center of the world.
Even for such a player, it is not easy to just rely on one’s own strength and go on.
This is because in reality there are too many things to consider.
Political issues, unity issues, issues of race and deep-rooted discrimination. Anyway, this world is no different from Earth.
“Because people live nice lives, there are many people who can help.”
“…It looked like that.”
Brünnhild said, looking at my colleagues who had calmed the disturbance.
“Rather, please deploy the Valkyries better. They are the only ones who can control the wild beasts. Let’s cooperate until this situation is over.”
The moment when Brünnhild smiled and nodded.
────Kwaang!!
The wall we were standing on collapsed.
* * * *
“Holy shit…”
The barrier collapsed and I stood up, swearing in a thick cloud of dust.
“Brünnhild. Are you okay?”
“It doesn’t hurt to this extent. But…”
Brünnhild looks around. As the wall collapsed, soldiers and northerners who had fallen with it were groaning here and there.
“My my legs…!”
“I’m crushed by a stone! Someone help me!”
Knights and wizards were at least in good health, but those who were not suffered terrible damage.
I was wondering what on earth broke the barrier, but the proof is right in front of me.
“……rock?”
A huge rock that seems to have been carved out of the entire center of the mountain. It was blown into the wall and collapsed.
‘Who on earth threw this?’
First, it was important to understand the situation. As I jump onto the wall that hasn’t collapsed, someone approaches me.
“Corin. Are you okay?”
It was a Hwaran who was worried about me after seeing the wall collapse.
“I’m fine. There are more people who have been crushed than that. Please save them.”
“……okay.”
After sending Hwaran down, he looks beyond the barrier.
“Are you already here?”
I thought it was spectacular when I saw 230,000 northerners, but the sight before my eyes reminded me of the end of the world.
-Kaaaak! Kaaaaaaa!
-Bake it!
Monsters filled the sky. The sound of footsteps echoing on the ground and a roar that causes wind and waves.
Tens of thousands… no, such a terrible quantity that counting the number is meaningless is advancing towards the wall.
The question is who were the ones who just broke down the wall… The culprits were very obvious.
“Big giant…”
“It’s a giant! It’s a giant!”
Beyond the horizon. Dozens of giants walking toward the wall, each carrying a large rock.
“Why…”
The plan to revive the giant failed.
Because we destroyed the magic tower that would resurrect the giant. That knowledge would never have been passed on to Balthazar.
“They’re throwing rocks again!”
“Run!”
Dozens of giants simultaneously lifted the rock. If they all hit the wall… the walled city will be destroyed!
“Professor Josephine!”
Rock chunks that draw an arc. As if to counter this, Lady Joséphine manifested her magic.
Calculate the parabolas drawn by rock chunks. Expand imaginary space exactly at the landing point.
The imaginary space developed by Josephine Clara, the strongest witch in the Great War, swallowed up all the rocks.
“Oh oh…!”
“Space witch!”
Cheering security guards. But it doesn’t end here.
‘The rock has been exhausted, but there may be additional hits. Moreover, the giant itself is difficult to block with a wall.’
When they appear in the original work, they are definitely mid-boss level monsters.
To defeat those guys, you need at least conversational magic or special skills. Fortunately, the ultimate power to fulfill this is within my grasp.
“Implementation of the sun.”
The embodiment of the sun by Klau Solas. This enormous power is undoubtedly the world’s greatest firepower.
“I’d like you to give me a ride about half of it.”
It would be even better if we could blow away those endless waves of monsters.
“It is Lord Corrin’s sun!”
“Good! If you have that, you can even be a giant…!”
Everyone’s expectations are towards me. Every time their hope was conveyed to me, [War Rider] strengthened me even more.
The moment when I was trying to focus that hope and make the sun fall on the giants.
“Look over there! What on earth is that!?”
The sky clearly illuminated by the sun, Cloud Solas. A large ‘wolf’ leaping towards the sun-lit sky.
“uh?”
Of course I know that wolf. The final match of the previous episode. The demonic beast of the apocalypse accepted by Balthazar’s subordinate golden wolves, Ren and Ron.
Harm-eating wolf squall.
Hathi, the moon-eating wolf.
In other words.
Klaus Solas, who reproduces the power of the sun──
-Kwajik!
──Natural enemy.
“The sun…….”
“……It was eaten.”
In an unbelievable reality. As the sun disappears, an even more merciless cold wave hits. This cold wave… was by no means normal.
“no way.”
The edge beyond the horizon. An unbelievably large figure appears behind the giants.
A being so majestic that it can be mistaken for a snowy mountain. I encountered it when I visited the Druid’s secret area to obtain Klau Solas…a giant comparable to the Sky Titan.
“…Frost Giant.”
The culprit of this long winter who cooperates with Tates Balthazar and seeks to destroy the world.
The frost giant, who was originally supposed to greet the players who came to solve the winter in Nastrond, the world of corpses, was now approaching the wall.
“……under.”
The preparation was sufficient.
I twisted a lot of things because I knew the future.
And this twist.
It didn’t necessarily work in my favor.
