The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 315

Chapter 315

Divine Power and Magic Power Enhancement.

What will happen from now on? Even if Ladia Schmidt were to win against Olivia, there would be no reason for Olivia to regain her faith saying that I am nothing without divine power.

– Kurleung!

As Olivia strengthens her magical powers, the Unlimited Weight Tournament finals begin.

“the feeling is… … . A bit like that.”

“Right.”

Having heard their conversation, Saviolin Tana and I couldn’t hide a foreboding feeling.

Lydia Schmidt is up to something.

– Kwakang!

Contrary to my ominous premonition, I couldn’t tell with my own eyes who exactly had the upper hand in the momentum of the two.

What is clear is that Lydia Schmidt is also a great talent.

However, Olivia Ranze, who is dealing with it only with magical power enhancement, is not pushed back at all. That means that if you use even the divine power, Olivia’s overwhelming superiority will be predicted.

No matter how much Ars’ power was focused on attacks, Tuan’s power also had the power of reinforcement. If Olivia uses that much, it will be easy for Radia Schmidt to win.

What the hell is Lydia Schmidt up to? To force Olivia, who sensed defeat, to use her holy power?

Olivia said they would be brought to the Inquisition if that happened.

So, even in the face of giving a set to Harriet, he did not use his divine power.

“… … It’s a story in a matter of times, but what will happen if Olivia-senpai uses divine power while officially giving up her faith?”

I heard it to some extent, but I didn’t know it properly, so I asked that.

“… … You’re not going to get in good shape.”

Charlotte said in a negative tone.

“… … Those who use unauthorized divine power are treated as witches.”

Saviolin Tana supplemented.

Priest or Paladin.

Regardless of whether or not one is ordained, there is a qualification for divine power. Although this kind of students, who are similar to apprentices, are exceptions.

It must be to monopolize the divine power.

Olivia did not treat people secretly in a rural village, but was called the saint of Eredian.

If you give up your faith, the divine power must disappear. Because it is the power that comes from faith in God.

But instead of disappearing, Olivia’s divine power grew stronger.

It’s just that you shouldn’t use it. Divine power that is not used in the bosom of God will be treated as heresy.

“If that happens, Olivia won’t be treated like a witch. It will only be referred to the Inquisition.”

If Olivia uses divine power, she is using unauthorized divine power in a public place. So, there is a good chance that Olivia will be framed under the pretext of the Inquisition or the Inquisition.

Radia Schmidt will try to force Olivia to use her divine power.

But how?

Even at the moment when Olivia was defeated by Heriot, she did not use her divine power.

At the tournament, Olivia sees it as a power she lacks and fights.

If you lose, you lose, but there shouldn’t be cases where you forcefully use divine power.

-bang! Kwakang!

Ladia Schmidt’s strike gives a dull shock to the arena, and Olivia receives it with only one sword.

Olivia not only received the destructive divine power with the power of magical power enhancement, but also counterattacked.

I don’t know anything else, but is that really a fight between humans?

That’s what I was thinking.

“Awesome. both.”

The world’s strongest monster was praising it next to me.

It was also a fierce battle.

Radia Schmidt fights with all she can.

Olivia Ranze uses only magical power enhancement.

Without Olivia, would Lydia Schmidt have taken Olivia’s place?

Radia’s skills were so great that I thought so. But she wasn’t jealous of Olivia, she was trying to put Olivia back where she should be.

Obsession, not jealousy.

In the end, both are exhausting.

-Kureung!

A white light was emitted from the sword where Radia’s divine power was concentrated, and it was pierced to the ground.

-Koo-kwa-kwang!

I wondered if that was divine power. The divine power focused on destruction was exerting more power than magic.

It was almost visible that the stadium, which had been reinforced more firmly after Heriot, was being ground in real time.

That’s the Holy Knight.

In fact, it was to the point where I wondered if the word berserker would be more appropriate.

But Olivia, who was dealing with it, was equally amazing.

If attacked, the dangerously powerful attack was shed or avoided, and the attack was stabbed at the timing one step ahead of the opponent’s attack, making Radia stunned.

The sum of the overall output is ahead of Radia.

However, Olivia put pressure on Radia with a slightly more sophisticated and faster predictive attack and counter.

Therefore, the outcome of the match was somewhat predictable.

Ladia is doing well, but Olivia will win.

Like the fight with Harriet, he is not belittling his opponent.

Even though Olivia didn’t use her divine power, in the end, she was doing her best without being vigilant.

A secret trick hidden by Lydia Schmidt.

If he was trying to make Olivia have no choice but to use her divine power, what kind of method would that be?

Olivia attacked Ladia with a sharp and precise attack.

-bang! Kwakang! Kang!

As if to end it all at once, Olivia’s attack continued without giving Ladia a chance to catch her breath.

Combustion upon serialization.

Olivia, who was steadily attacking the defense power of divine power and the defense power of magical power enhancement, finally succeeded in creating a momentary gap.

It’s over like this.

Olivia sensed her victory and thrust her sword into Ladia Schmidt’s chest.

The moment when Olivia takes the first set.

-Kureung!

I could clearly see the explosive red energy welling up from Radia Schmidt’s body.

“That… … !”

Saviolin Tana watched the scene with her eyes wide open, and Olivia took a big step back in embarrassment.

– Radia! What are you doing!

-Olivia… … . you have to win yes… … ? you need money so… … . Are you in a tournament? You have to help the kids, right?

Radia, engulfed in red aura, smiles eerily.

– Beat me with all your might. with all your might

Radia Schmidt, engulfed in an ominous red light, was not in a normal state even by pretending. Saviolin Tana muttered blankly as if she knew what that red aura was.

“Berserk… … it’s ro Why is he still only a student, but he has such power… … .”

“what is that?”

“It is a power rarely used by the high priests of Ars.”

Berserk.

I don’t know the details, but I can already feel it from the word itself. Olivia shouted, her complexion white.

– Radia! stop right now!

“That… … . It is the power to burn one’s life.”

It is an extreme method used by the Paladins of Als to increase their strength by burning their lives.

The paladins of Als were not like berserkers, but berserkers themselves.

Radia Schmidt was now using that power in the tournament finals.

Ladia knows why Olivia must win. I know that I entered because I needed the prize money, not for myself.

So Olivia was doing a crazy thing of burning her own life to increase her power so that she couldn’t defeat her unless she did her best.

Doing this to make Olivia use her divine power?

-bang! Cacan! Kang!

Lydia Schmidt was engulfed in red aura and was pushing Olivia back.

Charlotte looks at Saviolin Tana with a worried expression.

“Shouldn’t it be stopped?”

“Yes, but Berserk is a very rare ability among the powers used by the Priests of Ars. Even in the Als Church itself, there are very few people who know how to use it. Olivia seems to know, but… … . I wonder if the organizers know what’s going on right now… … .”

From the outsider’s point of view, it seems that Radia Schmidt, who was on the verge of defeat, suddenly displayed her power, but she would not know that the red aura is the power to burn life.

When I looked towards Ileion Boelton, the leader of the Knights Templar, the atmosphere on that side was also disturbed.

Ileion Bolton was looking at the arena with a serious expression, and even the paladins with him were talking to each other with bewildered expressions.

Even the high-ranking paladins with the commander of the Templars had no idea what Radia Schmidt was doing.

Olivia was defending against the attack of Radia Schmidt, who was unleashing a powerful offensive with her teeth clenched.

The match must be stopped immediately.

However, if the organizers do not know the situation, the game will continue as it is.

Olivia was rather being pushed back by Radia Schmidt, who was drawing out extreme power. It would be best to subdue them at once, but to do so, you must use divine power.

It is an option that cannot be considered.

It would be possible to endure without using divine power, but in that case, Radia Schmidt, who had exhausted all of her life force to draw out, would die on the spot.

That’s why there is only one way to stop Radia Schmidt from burning lives.

stop play.

or.

Olivia giving up the game.

There were only those two.

“Sir Tana, stop the game immediately. I will take all responsibility.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

The moment Charlotte said that with a serious expression and Saviolin Tana nodded.

-abstention… … do.

Olivia, with a bewildered expression, announced her withdrawal.

* * *

Olivia shivered in the dressing room, covering her face with both hands.

abstained

‘I want to be like my sister when I grow up!’

‘Hey, aren’t your dreams too small? I should try to become a much better person than my sister.’

‘You’re the prettiest, nicest, and most amazing person I know?’

‘Don’t make this guy stand out too much.’

abstained

‘Thank you always Miss Olivia.’

‘What. It’s something I have to do.’

‘But now there are circumstances… … . I hope you don’t overdo it.’

‘Doctor, I’m still fine. I think I can earn a lot of prize money at the temple festival this time.’

‘A prize money?’

‘Your tournament and that… … . Another contest… … . hmm. There is such a thing anyway!’

abstained from

It had to be.

There is no such thing as second prize in the Temple Tournament.

Most of the audience was taken aback.

Because the expected finals ended in vain.

Very few people knew the details. Whether or not Radia Schmidt’s behavior warrants disqualification is debatable.

So right now, even though the tournament is lukewarm, I had to finish it first.

Olivia hadn’t even thought of seeing the awards ceremony.

Although the prize is also a prize.

It hurts not to win, but more than that, Olivia’s head felt like it would explode.

I felt like going crazy.

I don’t know why you do this to yourself.

How long have you been sitting blankly?

“Olivia.”

Ladia Schmidt was walking towards Olivia.

-Tuong!

She tossed away the gaudy trophy that was proof of her unrestricted tournament victories. Like you have no interest in that.

Ladia approached Olivia.

“Why did you abstain?”

“… … .”

“You needed money.”

Lydia Schmidt’s expression showed no hint of joy from winning.

The only thing he wanted in return for choosing the option of burning his own life was to use his divine power in a public place.

As a result, Ladia Schmidt risked her life to be dragged into the Inquisition and forced to walk the path of a priest again. I risked my life as if that was the case.

If she had used divine power, she could have subdued Radia Schmidt who used Berserk.

But Olivia didn’t do that.

If the situation remains the same, Radia Schmidt will face death.

Olivia was forced to choose.

Giving clothing and food to starving children due to lack of budget. I was forced to choose one of the two ways to live a religious life.

Forced to choose, Olivia made her choice.

“This is not the Olivia I know.”

Radia wasn’t happy about winning at all. Rather, he was angrily looking down at Olivia.

“If the Olivia I knew was in that situation, she should have subdued me at once and received the prize money and helped people. Clearly it had to be.”

In Ladia Schmidt’s mind, Olivia is not one to abstain from such situations. Since he participated to help someone with the prize money, in that situation, he should have used his divine power without thinking about himself.

The self everyone expects.

For not acting like that, Lydia Schmidt was angry.

Olivia was shivering, her complexion blue.

“Yes, I am selfish. I will live selfishly now. i will live like that this is me This is me now… … . therefore. leave me alone.”

“No, Olivia. no. It shouldn’t be like this. You should have just used divine power.”

Radia Schmidt shakes her head resolutely.

Then, kneeling in front of Olivia, he looks up at the terrified Olivia.

Eyes as black as the abyss stared at Olivia.

“Olivia can be the right person again. Look at me, I risked my life and did this to help you without thinking about me. I wasn’t originally like this Olivia I’ve always admired the way you help people, so I’m trying to be that kind of person. So you did something like this So, Olivia, I’ll help you this time. Olivia. This will only make it harder for you. More difficult things happen. You will face harsher things. No, this situation where you are getting further and further away from God is already terribly harsh for you. I didn’t do this for nothing. Only this. It was the only way no one would get hurt.”

Olivia couldn’t hear Lydia Schmidt speaking too fast.

I didn’t even want to hear it in the first place.

Lydia Schmidt thinks that the object of her longing is being destroyed.

That’s why this time, he thinks it’s time for him to help Olivia.

“I never asked you to do that… … . please… … .”

“no. No, Olivia. I’ll give you my prize. Because I don’t want you to be a bad person. I can help the kids. But promise me one thing. I will return to the arms of God again. It’s not too late. It’s not too late.”

No matter what you say to someone whose ears are closed, you won’t hear it. Olivia was afraid to look into Ladia Schmidt’s eyes any longer, so she shut them tightly.

Eventually, Olivia burst into tears.

“Please don’t do this to me… … . please… … . please leave me alone… … . please. why me Why does it have to be me… … . please… … . leave me alone… … . i don’t think i’m wrong I don’t think I’m doing anything wrong… … .”

“no!”

Ladia shouted out loud as if she couldn’t get past that.

“Olivia! You can’t say things like that! You’ve been chosen by God! A perfect person like you, who was born with the grace of all the five great gods, cannot deny the gods! okay. okay. huh. okay. yes. You’re doing something called wandering. Oh, the gods give you these trials to make you more perfect. Oh, this is all the will of the gods to bring you to greater glory. therefore. Let’s think slowly. First of all, from going back to the temple. No, if you start slowly by talking to people about grace… … .”

“That’s a lot of fucking talk.”

Olivia, who had been crying as well as Ladia at the sudden voice from the hallway, turned her head in that direction.

“Why do you keep harassing people you don’t like? Street propagandists don’t stick around like this, do they?”

It was Reinhardt, not anyone else, who approached with a rough gait. Reinhardt strode over and grabbed the crying Olivia’s hand and forced her to stand up.

“If you talk like a dog, I’ll just slap you on the cheek. Are you listening to all that bullshit?”

“… … .”

“It’s not your story. Reinhardt.”

Lydia Schmidt said that to Reinhardt with a hard expression.

“What bullshit?”

Reinhardt pulled the trembling Olivia and hid her behind him.

“Your relationship between us is not yours in the first place.”

“… … what?”

“I’m going to have you join me.”

Reinhardt grabbed Olivia’s hand and started to lead her.

“Where are you going! I can’t let go of Olivia! It shouldn’t be like this!”

At Radia’s cry, Reinhardt stared at Radia Schmidt with a cold gaze.

“Leave yourself alone. Don’t be so mean.”

“… … .”

Olivia lowered her head and disappeared, guided by Reinhardt’s hand. As Olivia was helplessly dragged away, Ladia watched with clenched teeth.

Reinhardt.

That name is like a thorn in your throat.

It was Olivia who was weak and kind, but never broke her stubbornness.

But he is infinitely generous to that guy.

The saintess of Tuan, who should be pure, acts as if she is in love with that guy.

No, the reason Olivia became like that was when she became friends with a guy named Reinhardt.

That guy is the culprit behind all of this.

It’s a problem if that guy disappears.

Everyone is on the weird side.

He said you shouldn’t touch him.

You are about to sacrifice another poor child.

‘maggot crap. A fiend.’

In the eyes of Radia Schmidt, Reinhardt was only the one who corrupted Olivia, who was on the right path.

That guy shouldn’t exist.

Only without that guy can Olivia return to normal.

You can return to the original right path.

Ladia gritted her teeth and watched the hallway where Olivia had disappeared.

‘okay… … . it’s you… … .’

I would do anything for Olivia.

‘I’d rather you die. Olivia will be fine if you die rather than Adriana or the child… … . I just need you… … . Why should a child in the arms of a god have to be sacrificed for something like you… … . no. All it takes is you. It’s just a problem with an unbeliever like you.’

Lydia Schmidt’s eyes were wide open.
