The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 639
Chapter 639
Adelia went to Scarlett and asked. Have you ever neutralized a golem in the Battle of Wallen?
In the middle of a battle, it is impossible to know everything that is going on around you.
However, Scarlett occasionally uses her powers to terrorize soldiers or to neutralize the magic-like powers used by monsters.
That’s why Scarlett’s psychic ability is more of an auxiliary ability than an ability that actually helps in combat.
In Adelia’s mind, it was quite possible for the Archduke’s golem to appear somewhere on the battlefield and break down after being hit by Scarlett’s disabling wave.
* * *
He went out saying he would bring someone and came back with a red-haired girl by Adelia’s side.
She was a very unique and beautiful girl with flaming red hair and eyes.
But now the red-haired girl lowered her head.
“sorry. sorry. sorry.”
The Grand Duke, as well as the other wizards, couldn’t help but be confused.
“sorry… … . Wrong. I will be careful next time!”
Everyone couldn’t help but be confused when they saw Scarlett trembling like an aspen tree while repeating her apologies.
Scarlett is not very well known among Temple’s psychics.
It’s easy for psychic people who are good at large-scale destruction to gain fame on this battlefield, but Scarlett’s ability wasn’t very effective for destruction.
Of course, it is also a very unique ability. That’s why there was a time when I tested whether Scarlett’s ability could neutralize the gate on its own within the royal class.
The result was a failure, but Scarlett certainly had abilities beyond magic or psychic powers.
“Adelia. What do you mean?”
“that is… … . This is my friend Scarlett… … . He’s a psychic, and his abilities are pretty unique.”
“What kind of superpower is it?”
“It is an ability that does not work with all magic and psychic powers.”
“… … ?”
It’s a very unusual ability, but the opponent is a monster.
Since magic is never the main force, Scarlett’s abilities do not receive much attention.
And those who know Scarlett even a little know that magic and supernatural powers do not work on Scarlett.
“Incapacitate… … .”
The Archduke stared at Scarlett, who apologized profusely.
Although psychic powers are heterogeneous and bizarre, it is clear that psychic powers related to neutralization are very strange psychic powers.
“You can rest assured that the monsters didn’t use Dispel.”
Adelia brought Scarlett to calm the anxious Grand Duke. In the sense that the monsters didn’t neutralize the golem, so don’t worry.
However, Adelia could not help but read a strange expression in the expression of the grand duke.
It was an expression as if he had found a completely unexpected answer in a completely unexpected place.
“sorry! We will never let this happen again!”
“Okay. One golem isn’t that great of a damage to the current situation. And golems are not people. Even if it’s damaged, it doesn’t mean you’ve done a lot of damage to anyone.”
“Though… … . still… … .”
“Wasn’t it okay?”
The Grand Duke carefully patted Scarlett, who was trembling like an aspen tree, on the shoulder, saying it was okay.
Of course, Scarlett’s expression was gradually dying in real time because of the Archduke’s pat for reassurance.
“But first you need to know for sure what happened.”
– Right!
Archduke snaps his fingers.
Then, a golem was summoned from the air.
The Archduke looked at Scarlett and said.
“Can you neutralize it?”
“yes… … . yes?”
Scarlett, the other wizards, and Adelia were taken aback by the sudden proposal.
“We need to know how strong you are so we can know what to watch out for when operating the golem in the future.”
“ah… … . Is that so… … .”
As if the Grand Duke’s words were understood, Scarlett hesitated and approached the golem summoned by the Grand Duke.
Scarlett carefully approaches the golem and puts her hand on its torso.
It didn’t even take long.
-thud!
The steel mana stone, which is the power part of the golem, lost its luster and stopped moving.
It is not destroyed or shattered.
The golem literally stopped maneuvering while standing.
– Right!
Archduke snaps his fingers.
I sent a few signals to the golem, but there was no response.
“I’ll check.”
Adelia approaches the frozen golem and starts checking things.
“Exactly the same.”
“W Am I the culprit too… … .”
The golem equipped with the dispel countermeasure stopped with just one touch.
It was a sight that the wizards could not help but understand.
“Does it have to be touched to stop it?”
However, the Grand Duke asks something completely different.
“yes? oh no… … . I don’t think it’s necessary.”
The Grand Duke listens to Scarlett’s story with a serious expression.
In the midst of this, the first son of the Grand Duke, who had been silent, cautiously intervened.
“I… … . But if this child misuses his power… … . Couldn’t the Titan be incapacitated?”
The atmosphere couldn’t help but freeze at those words.
This is the Grand Duke’s encampment.
Not only Titan parts are stored here, but also anti-aircraft golems.
It means that if Scarlett misuses her power even once, the power of the Archduke will be neutralized at once.
Like this golem now incapacitated, so can the titan.
Overwhelming dispel ability that indiscriminately erases all magical powers that reach the wavelength.
Scarlett’s psychic powers should be seen as such a bizarre kind of thing now.
Scarlett began to tremble with a startled look on her face, as if she had heard a story she hadn’t even imagined.
Of course, this is only possible if Scarlett has the will to do so.
Not only the wizards of the Archduke but also Adelia realizes what kind of being she has brought into the garrison and begins to get tired of it.
“I’ll disappear quickly!”
Adelia watched in a daze as Scarlett turned around and ran away from the archduke’s garrison.
“Come to think of it, it was a really big deal… … . sorry… … .”
Of course, Scarlett wouldn’t do such a thing, and the Titans weren’t even nearby, but bringing Scarlett here was certainly a risky move.
Scarlett’s power was not a monster in that way, but rather a more dangerous power to her allies.
“I couldn’t believe that Scarlett’s power had already reached that level… … .”
He even saw with his own eyes a golem being neutralized right in front of his nose.
No matter how powerful the magic, no matter how powerful the magic.
Scarlett can erase magic if she wants to.
It was only after seeing it with her own eyes that Adelia realized how powerful and dangerous it was.
* * *
“Hey heck… … . omg… … .”
Scarlett hurriedly ran out of the garrison and returned to the Royal Class Garrison at once.
Scarlett doesn’t rely too much on her psychic powers. In the first place, it was rarely helpful in battle.
However, in order to save allies whose minds were suppressed by monsters, there were cases where they used their powers very occasionally during battle.
However, something happened that the archduke’s golem, caught in its power, became inoperable.
Scarlett couldn’t help but be surprised and embarrassed that such a thing was possible. Certainly, golems wandered all over the battlefield, and it had never happened before that a golem would get caught up in Scarlett’s power. Scarlett’s psychic powers had no reason or need to be activated all the time during battle.
In other words, Golem’s side was unlucky and Scarlet’s side was also unlucky.
This happened because the timing wasn’t quite right.
It wasn’t because she ran in haste, but because Scarlett was so surprised that her whole body was drenched in a cold sweat.
He incapacitated one of the golems without even realizing it.
Yes, let’s call it an accident.
‘I… … . But if this child misuses his power… … . Couldn’t the Titan be incapacitated?’
But Scarlett seemed to be losing her mind when she remembered the last words she heard.
Titan is now an indispensable force in the Allied Forces.
Thinking that if she had misused her powers, the Titans could literally have turned into giant tin cans like mountains, Scarlett couldn’t help but be glad that hadn’t happened before.
The Titan has only been put into the battlefield twice so far, and since the Titan initially moved in the middle of the enemy territory, not on the side of the allies, there was no possibility of such a thing happening, but the fact that it was possible was a very big shock to Scarlett.
If Titan is incapacitated due to one’s own mistakes, it will not be enough to pay for the crime with one’s life.
Only then did Scarlett realize that she had abilities that were more dangerous to her allies than to her enemies.
A psychic who is more dangerous to allies.
Even just neutralizing one golem had already caused a lot of trouble.
It’s not likely, but it’s one chance in ten thousand.
The mere possibility of any negative impact on the Titans forced Scarlett to make up her mind.
‘I shouldn’t be here.’
Realizing the dangers of her abilities, the best option for Scarlett is to leave the battlefield as soon as possible.
before causing irreversible accidents than are likely to help.
At this point, when the end of the gate crisis is near, it is better not to have a dangerous power on the battlefield.
It’s not a cowardly decision to survive. It couldn’t cause more trouble.
First of all, we need to find Mr. Mustrang.
If you explain the situation in detail, I will send it back to you.
The moment Scarlett is about to visit the Command Barracks of the Royal Class Garrison in such thoughts.
“What’s going on? Why are you sweating so much?”
When Anna saw Scarlett, whose complexion was pale and her whole body was soaked in sweat, she approached with a serious expression.
“Would you like some fatigue recovery pills? Christina gave me something… … .”
Cristina, a master of alchemy, always had simple antipyretics, painkillers, and fatigue relievers in her barracks, like household medicine. Anna examines Scarlett’s complexion as if she would give her as much as she needed.
Scarlett shook her head when asked if she would bring me some of those household medicines.
“Oh no. Anna. It’s not like that. Your body is fine.”
“Your body is fine… … ? What else do you have?”
Anna has a sullen expression, but continues to examine Scarlett’s complexion as if concerned.
“ah… … . You know that… … . I don’t think I should stay here any longer… … .”
“What are you talking about… … ? Why are you?”
without knowing who you are talking to.
“Actually, during the last Battle of Wallen… … .”
Scarlett starts telling people who shouldn’t hear what they shouldn’t.
Unknowingly, I neutralized the golem.
Having just been summoned to the Archduke’s garrison and confirming that he had neutralized the golem, he destroyed one golem as a test.
He said he shouldn’t be here anymore because he might destroy Titan if he did something wrong.
When Scarlett’s explanation was over.
“iced coffee… … .”
Anna looked at Scarlett with a meaningful expression and nodded quietly.
“It could be… … .”
Scarlett is Anna’s eyes.
“It could be… … .”
Along with Dettomorian, Anna is always gloomy. So somehow, when you talk, you have no choice but to feel uncomfortable for no reason.
Anna de Guerna.
A girl with a talent for black magic grabs Scarlett by the shoulder.
“Scarlett… … .”
“yes?”
“Don’t tell anyone about this.”
“yes… … ? Don’t you?”
“Don’t do it especially… … .”
Anna bit her lip and looked around.
It was a dangerous picture that looked like Anna trying to hypnotize Scarlett.
“Never do that to Christina.”
“yes? Anna What are you talking about? … .”
Scarlett couldn’t help but be embarrassed by Anna’s story out of the blue.
Anna pokes her face at Scarlett who asks why.
Scarlett had no choice but to swallow her saliva involuntarily as the black eyes, as dark and deep as the abyss, approached.
somehow threatening
“If you don’t want to do it, don’t do it.”
Scarlett felt as if she was about to be stunned by the sudden pressure.
Don’t say anything without explaining why.
But in Anna’s eyes, Scarlett could feel the fear in the abyss.
“What are you two doing?”
Then, someone’s voice came from behind.
Anna’s complexion turned pale at the familiar voice.
Looking back, Christina was approaching, wearing a colorfully colored apron, as if she had just touched an alchemy reagent.
“What secrets are you talking about, whispering like that?”
Cristina smiled deliberately and patted Anna on the side.
“Oh no. It’s not like that… … . Scarlett doesn’t look well… … .”
“huh? Scarlett Not feeling well? Is that so? Why are you sweating so much?”
Scarlett has no idea what’s going on. Cristina approaches Scarlett and touches her sweaty forehead.
What did Christina have to do with what she had just learned?
Christina’s touch, asking if she was sick, giving her medicine or calling a priest, felt nothing but her concern for her friend.
But Anna is trembling.
I don’t know why.
“Anna, what are you doing? Do you look more sick?”
Naturally, Cristina felt Anna’s expression even more strangely.
Cristina stares at Anna.
There seemed to be nothing wrong with Christina’s nonchalant behavior and demeanor.
The weird looking side is rather ugly.
Scarlett couldn’t figure out why.
“no… … . I guess I just have a cold… … .”
“A summer cold that even dogs don’t catch? Do you sleep on a proper blanket?”
“Yes… … . It should be… … .”
“Wait, I have a tonic. I’ll give you one of each.”
Cristina trotted towards her barracks.
My friend looks sick, so what’s the matter with her bringing the tonic?
“Anna… … ? Why are you… … ?”
“go back.”
Anna squeezes Scarlett’s hand tightly without explaining anything.
“Come back quickly. Don’t tell anyone about what you just did, don’t tell anyone. Go back quickly.”
Even if Anna didn’t have to say it, Scarlett thought so.
“You shouldn’t be here.”
I can’t go out, why are you doing this?
Scarlett couldn’t figure out why, and Anna said nothing more.
