Revenge of the Iron-Blooded Sword Hound - Chapter 141
Episode 141 Villain’s identity (1)
Returning to the academy, Vikir remembered what happened last night.
‘The guy wearing the black sack. You must have used Quo Vadis’ blunt technique, right?’
A monster with the word ‘Ephebo’ engraved on his chest.
It was about the level of a senior graduate, so I had to put a lot of effort into handling it.
It was a pity that even that could not stop him from running away in the middle.
‘I’m going to have to go around even more hotly from tomorrow night. Well, I’m sure we’ll meet again if we go around all the places where the devil’s stench comes from.’
If you don’t come out, you won’t be able to come out.
Because the devil will make all the businesses he has built in the human world into a mess.
‘Because devils especially like human blood, especially the blood of children… I think we can do it with the most easy-going nurseries, hospitals, and monasteries. For a little smoother hunting, I need to become a sword master as soon as possible.’
Bikir is currently in a state where he has fully regained the powers of his previous life as a top grader.
On top of this, the blessings of the Styx River, the magic sword Baalzebub Baskerville, and the 10-type swordsmanship and the experience gained from killing numerous monsters were added to the point where he could fight a duel with a sword master.
Considering the age of just 18 years old, the potential for future development is truly limitless.
‘First of all, the seventh tooth. I have to perfectly master the Baskerville 7th…’
When Vikir was complicating various thoughts in her mind.
“Now, pay attention everyone!”
There was a voice that woke Bikir from his thoughts.
A sophomore girl stood in front of the first-year students and focused their attention.
On her name tag, the following inscription can be seen:
< Newspaper Department (press social participation club): Ryukion (Λύκειον) >
Club.
Student self-governing activities, also known as circles, societies, small gatherings, etc.
This organization, named ‘Ryukion’, was a small newspaper run by about 30 students.
However, unlike the small scale of newspapers, their influence was enormous.
Newspapers published daily, which compiled news from inside and outside the academy, always sold like hot cakes and were in great demand outside the academy as well.
Students wanted to get the issues inside the academy, no matter how small, as quickly as possible, and parents and stakeholders outside the academy added.
Since the giants who will move the world in the future are a group gathered from when they were still young, it was only natural that the world’s attention was focused on them.
And isn’t Bikir also a person who desperately needs information more than anyone else?
A hunter who hides his identity inside the academy during the day and lives as an ordinary student, while at night he goes outside the academy to hunt demons.
To do so, the information inside the academy must also be used to the fullest.
The only way to know what happened at night faster than in the morning newspaper and to know what happened during the day faster than in the evening newspaper is to go into a place that makes morning or evening newspapers.
A newspaper inside the academy like Ryukion.
‘Anyway, surprisingly, there aren’t many members.’
Bikir turned his head and looked around the scene inside the newspaper department.
A magic rotary press that prints mana screens on paper and a room lined with various photographic materials.
However, the number of people in the room was not very large.
Several sophomores who are leading the freshmen in the club. And the rest were freshmen like Bikir.
The entry of freshmen in the current newspaper department was as follows.
Don Quixote Tudor (cold weapon donation class A).
Sinclair (Fever Weapons Class A).
Sancho Barataria (Cold Arms Donation Class A).
Usher Bianca (Cold Arms Donation Class B).
Piggy (cold weapon donation class B class).
Bikir (Cold Arms Donation Class B).
At first, more newbies came in.
However, Ryukion was a very tight club, and the amount of work to be done was too great to be called a simple hobby club.
Moreover, at the academy, where the exams were already tough, it was impossible to combine study and club activities unless you had a fair amount of ability, as even a little neglect of individual study was likely to result in a grade being suspended.
Even Saint Dolores Rune Quo Vadis, the head of the newspaper club, was famous for being a workaholic, so it was only natural that the freshmen could not stand it and quickly fell away.
It was said that there was even a ghost story spreading that it was more difficult to work as a student reporter for the newspaper club led by Dolores than to take the midterm and final exams for the required major classes.
In that way, the remaining first graders were only outstanding guys in their own way.
A senior in the second grade gathered the first graders and asked.
“How did you end up in the Newspaper Club? Our Ryukion is famous for being tough.”
Then Tudor was the first to answer.
“Hahaha, I’m an alpha man, so there’s no problem at this point! Schoolwork! Clubs! Everyone can do well!”
Indeed, it was the confidence of being from the 7th generation of the senior cold arms donation family.
Next, Sancho opened his mouth.
“Hmm. I stayed because I didn’t want people to think I was a strong fool. When you say the newspaper department, you look like something intelligent. I want to be an intelligent man.”
Everyone was a little surprised by the unexpectedly serious answer.
Next was Piggy.
“I originally like to collect and analyze information… so I think it’s my first job!”
It stuttered a lot, but it was still a pretty bold aspiration.
This time the schoolboy Sinclair said.
“Isn’t money and information power an inseparable relationship? I think information is the most important.”
It was an answer that accurately understood the inseparable dynamics that move the world.
Finally, Bianca opened her mouth.
“Ugh. I joined after being tricked by Dolores-senpai.”
Are you fooled? Everyone turned to Bianca with puzzled looks.
Bianca seemed a bit hesitant, then answered truthfully.
“He said that this is a ‘sniper’ club…”
That’s not wrong. Sometimes newspapers have articles about shooting someone.
When Bianca finished speaking, everyone laughed loudly.
A sophomore girl laughed and slapped Bianca on the shoulder.
“If you look at it that way, this is a sniper club. Read this article!”
She showed a sports article on page 2 of the last issue of the morning newspaper.
The number of views and comments were displayed on the magically animated photos.

A crazy result with nearly 50,000 views and 30,000 comments.
The moment they read this article, Tudor and Sancho burst into laughter.
“Wahhahahaha! Hey Bikir! Is this the day? The day we did Naphtali!”
“…”
Bikir let out a light sigh, resting his forehead on his hand.
Meanwhile, Bianca is silent with her head turned away with a pathetic expression, while Sinclair stares at the newspaper article with Bikir’s photo.
Piggy was staring at Bikir, who seemed to be friendly with Tudor Sancho, with envy.
Right then.
Newspaper club Ryu K-On’s visit to the club suddenly opened.
“Hey guys!”
Saint Dolores, the head of Ryukion, called a meeting today with an enthusiastic expression.
She gathered the 1st, 2nd and 3rd grade students together and began discussing what would be published in today’s evening newspaper.
“Last night, 2nd and 3rd grade reporters went outside the academy to cover the story. The article was well chosen, so we just need to decide on the headline.”
Dolores placed the finished articles on the table.
Topics covered by the articles were:
[Unpublished article] / Hits: 0
-000 Daybreak last night. An incident occurred where a mysterious stranger appeared and devastated the 00 Nursery School… Unusually, the attacker
did not touch the property in the safe…
…..
Nothing has been revealed about his identity, where he aims, and how much combat power he has…
The damage suffered by the nursery school as a result of this incident…
10 people who died unjustly. The number of ~13-year-old girls is only confirmed…
Meanwhile, official opinions from the imperial family and religious chant Quo Vadis have yet to come out…
< Comment: 0 >
An unidentified monster invaded the nursery school, killed the head of the nursery school and many poor orphaned children, and turned the whole area into a mess.
It is presumed that he did not touch the gold or jewels in the safe, and that he only intended to kill thoroughly.
……Well, it was something like this.
Bikir looked at it and thought.
‘There are a lot of misunderstandings.’
The girls were killed by the devil, not by Vikir.
However, the imperial guards who arrived late seemed to have judged that the demons were also the work of Bikir.
‘……It doesn’t matter. I won’t be caught anyway. However, we need to thoroughly investigate the data of the nursery school raid through Sindi Wendy. It seems to have something to do with the slave auction of Viscount Gambino that I robbed in the past.’
While all the newspaper staff were thinking about what to headline the article, Vikir alone was thinking about something completely different.
Meanwhile, serious discussion continues on the table.
Everyone was eager to put their own headline on this article that would be published on the front page of a newspaper that the whole country could see.
“A fearsome villain is born!?”
“A monster appears outside the academy and roams the ecliptic!?”
“What are the imperial guards doing!”
“A challenge to the unprecedented Villain Quo Vadis!?”
“The girls’ mysterious massacre. Who is behind it!?”
Provocative titles pour in.
But none of them struck a chord with me, and the discussion stalled.
The clever newspaper staff soon discovered the cause of the slow progress.
“Ah! That villain doesn’t have a name yet!”
“that’s right. I can’t feel it because they only say villains or heinous criminals!
” “First of all, let’s come up with a nickname for that villain!”
Usually, heinous criminals are ‘King of the Cave’, ‘Son of Sam’, ‘King Murderer’, ‘Human Butcher’, and ‘Bluebeard’. Ominous nicknames such as etc. are attached.
Therefore, this villain also needed a nickname that would fit in his mouth.
One day, a being who suddenly appeared without notice and terrorized the night of the zodiac.
A prominent dignitary or name in society is widely known. A rare villain who brutally murders known mercenaries and then disappears like a ghost without leaving any clues.
What should we call this unprecedented villain?
The students of the Newspaper Department were excited and participated in the villain nickname contest.
” Since the incident happened in Reportang , how about ‘The Wolf of Reportang?’
How about ‘The Raven of Misfortune’ instead?”
“It’s too long. How about ‘orphan predator’? You know the impact.”
“The word ‘orphan’ is too discriminatory and demeaning. If that’s the case, let’s say ‘daycare raiders’.”
“But there are many facilities other than daycare centers that have been attacked. There were monasteries and hospital chapels, and there was also a ward office. How about this instead? ‘Mr. Terrorist’!”
“Ummm~ This is a bit difficult.”
Opinions were exchanged, but nothing caught my eye.
“…” ”
…”
“…”
All of them . Right at the moment when their opinions were put in a lull,
the saintess Dolores unconsciously muttered,
“……Night Hound.”
