The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide - Chapter 157

Crepin Subjugation Battle (8)

Kagang! Kang!

By the time ‘Condemnation’ hit the floor, the decision had already been made.

Kwadangtang! Coogung!

Arwen, who was pierced by Ed’s dagger and fell to the floor, coughed, scattering her blood.

Ed sat down on Arwen and applied more force to the dagger that stabbed her shoulder. My hand wrapped tightly around the handle, and the force that pushed me down to the floor became stronger.

“Keoheup…Keook….”

Arwen is a swordsman with excellent skills, but she is not the type with absolute strength.

Once you are overpowered by Ed, you cannot easily escape. Ed didn’t know this either, so he crushed Arwen and held the dagger tightly.

“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

her her her her she her her her her her body her body her body her body her her her arse her body a few times a her her body her strength a little her body began to lose strength little by little as the bleeding caused by the dagger continued.

Soon the struggle comes to an end and the flailing arms are quietly laid down on the stone floor.

Ed, who was suppressing Arwen with gritted teeth, soon relaxed his body little by little. He realized that Arwen had no more strength left to resist.

Arwen spoke with her eyes closed.

“Finish it.”

“Sister Arwen!”

At that time, Tanya, who could barely control herself, stood up and shouted.

Tanya staggered up behind Ed, who was sitting on Arwen’s back.

“We don’t need to do this.”

Tanya spoke with a face that looked like she was about to cry.

Tanya, who has just entered the battlefield, does not fully understand the entire situation. Nevertheless, even though her appearance had changed grotesquely, she could clearly see that the girl in front of her was Arwen, who had hugged and cared for her in the past.

“I don’t know what happened, but…”

Tanya was one of the people who had seen Arwen closest.

She is a girl who has been praised as being more suitable than anyone else to be the successor to the Ross Taylor family, and she is probably someone who understands Crepin’s deepest thoughts.

As he was the first designated successor, it was highly likely that Crepin also communicated with Arwen without hesitation, without hiding his true feelings.

If so, he is the person who would have understood the darkness inside Crepin faster than anyone else.

Still, Arwen did not deny him. Tanya couldn’t believe it.

“…We can do it all again. Let’s just talk about it first.”

“One thing is certain…”

Arwen spoke clearly even though she was holding back blood.

“When my body is free, I will raise my sword again. Of my own will.”

“There’s no reason to do that!”

Tanya ran crying and saw Arwen and talked to her.

“Look at this situation now. The mansion is destroyed, monsters are floating in the sky, and people are dying… Is this really what Arwen wanted? You wouldn’t have wanted something like this!”

“Ed.”

Arwen quietly closed her eyes and spoke.

“Finish.”

The moment Tanya heard that and was about to say something more, Arwen cut her off first and spoke.

“I should get some rest now too.”

When Tanya heard those words, she was completely speechless.

Arwen’s body, crushed to the ground and barely breathing, cannot be said to be fine even with empty words.

Even though some parts of the body were restored with the power of Mevuller, the original body was already in a semi-corpse state.

While participating in Crepin’s research for a long time, he endured great pain and survived to the end. This is because he knew that if he died, his next targets would be Ed and Tanya.

In the end, he even led this body into battle. I was also stabbed with a knife. Needless to say, the excruciating pain in my body. He himself said that Mevuller’s power entails terrible pain.

“It was a hard life. I suffered a lot.”

“Was it worth it?”

Arwen just smiled at that question.

She walked in Crepin’s footsteps all her life. As his one and only daughter, as a glorious successor, as the only person who understands the man who claims to be pure evil and commits evil deeds.

In order to affirm him, he turned his head away from the moral law, bowed his head to his brothers and sisters who were leaving, and shook his head to the retainers who tried to dissuade him.

Then, there is only one question for Edgar to ask Arwen.

Was it worth it?

No answer came back. This means that you have to see the crepin in person to check.

Ed gently closed his eyes once and raised the dagger. It is a ceremonial dagger used in various ceremonial events at the Ross Taylor Mansion. This is one of the few tools Ed had with him when he first started living in the wild.

The dagger blade that went through all the hardships shone in the moonlight.

It was the end of someone’s long journey.

* * *

After entering the territory and running as hard as I could for a while, the mansion site finally started to get closer.

Princess Fenia ran along the trail with her body tightly attached to the horse’s head, and the guards she accompanied also accelerated the horse’s speed to keep up.

Even on a galloping horse, the strange creature in the sky can now be seen.

The eyeball monster covered in grotesque chunks of flesh clearly looked like Mebula, the evil god who ruled the mythical era.

What is unbelievable is that there is another monster who is exchanging one-on-one combat with the Mevuller.

Quang! bang!

Mevuller’s descent is still incomplete, but that doesn’t mean it’s an enemy that a single human can handle.

It was like a walking disaster, but there was another such disaster on the scene.

The numerous magic circles that decorate the sky are all high-ranking magic circles. Just implementing one would require the full effort of a skilled wizard.

A wizard who shoots such high-ranking members of the legal team as if they were expendable items. It is hard to tell who it is because it appears to be the size of a pea in the corner of the eye, but Princess Fenia was able to tell it apart just by looking at its silhouette. Because it is spherical.

Lucy Mayril is considered a rare genius even in Sylvania.

The reason she is fighting Mebula like that is probably to help Ed Rothtaylor.

This is because Princess Fenia was well aware that Lucy Mayril was a strangely friendly person to Ed Rosstaylor.

Crack, crack, crack!

Finally, the outer wall of the mansion site was visible and it was time to enter with the escort knights.

-Taang! Kaang!

A considerable number of knights appeared in Princess Fenia’s field of vision. The figures wearing armor with turquoise vine decorations engraved here and there were clearly members of the Cathedral Knights of the Telos Church.

They were fighting all kinds of tentacles, gremlins, and human-shaped flesh monsters that came out from the entrance of the mansion grounds.

“Damn it! We have to break through from here! There are more gremlins coming from inside!”

“It’s worth dealing with, but…! There are too many of them! In order to get in to pick up the saint, we have to clear all the roads and enter at once…!”

“I think we need to set up a separate entry team! I think we can only reach the central mansion where the saintess is if we move in a separate unit and avoid the main unit!”

The Gremlin army seems to be under someone’s command.

Only enough troops are deployed to subdue a target moving alone, but a huge number of troops are mobilized against a huge army.

Plus, the entrance is too narrow.

Once you enter and find an open space, you will be able to disperse the enemy’s troops by moving as a separate unit. In any case, the goal is not to annihilate the enemy troops, but to rescue the saint.

However, the only entrance to the huge outer wall is rather narrow for troops to enter and exit. The defending side has an overwhelming advantage.

Woe! Kaang!

As soon as Princess Fenia’s guards arrived at the battlefield, they jumped off their horses and joined the fight. I pounded magic into the tentacles and clashed swords with the gremlins holding blades.

“You all…! No…! I’m sorry! I’m rude!”

The commander of the cathedral knights who was leading the fight in the rear quickly knelt down when he saw Princess Fenia’s face.

The aides who were assisting him around him quickly lowered their posture as soon as they saw Princess Fenia’s face.

Princess Fenia shook her head and told everyone to stand up. Now is not the time to be polite.

“What is this situation now?”

Princess Fenia quickly jumped off the horse and rolled up the hem of her dress. It was already covered in dust and had no trace of dignity, but Princess Fenia didn’t care.

“We haven’t fully figured out the entire situation either. Since the saint was participating in a social church, we were camped out nearby and waiting. But suddenly… as you can see…”

No need for a longer explanation than that. did. The situation is urgent and you can tell just by looking at what is going on right now.

Princess Fenia bit her lower lip and looked at the sky above the mansion grounds. All kinds of high-level magic on an unbelievable scale were being exchanged between Lucy and Mebula.

The sight is so spectacular that it makes your mouth drop just by looking at it.

The night sky was periodically being brightened by magical lights. It’s a metaphor that doesn’t fit the urgent situation, but it’s like a fireworks display and I feel like I’m going blind.

It was then.

Quagwang! bang!

The thick exterior wall of the Ross Taylor mansion site. One side was destroyed by high-ranking magic.

Kwak-ga-ga-ga-gak!

Patter!

In an instant, a large hole formed and dust rose up. The knights were startled and took a fighting stance. If a group of gremlins pour out from there, it would be like being attacked on the side.

However, the first person to show his face was… Senir Bloomriver, the head of the Bloomriver family.

She was sweating profusely and out of breath. Before the rest of the knights could react, Sinir looked behind him and shouted.

“Everyone, run now! The Knights Templar are here!”

Only then did the group of VIPs, who had been escorted by the spirit, run out of the castle walls.

“Ugh! I survived!”

“I finally left the grounds of this hellish mansion! I survived! I survived!”

“Thank you, God! Thank you for saving my miserable life!”

Upon seeing the group of VIPs running out, the commander of the Knights Templar quickly ordered his men to protect them all.

As the trusty knights quickly rushed out to protect the VIPs, they shed tears of joy and heaved a sigh of relief.

“We must quickly inform the imperial family of what happened here!”

In the meantime, a nobleman who came to his senses raised his voice.

“More than three high-ranking nobles have already died, and more than ten local nobles have died. The person who masterminded this should be reported to the imperial family and hanged on the gallows!”

“Yes, damn it! The Rosstaylor family! They were all crazy people who did this!”

“Prepare to send an entire army towards the imperial family right away! We must let the imperial family know how terrible the disaster that is occurring here is!”

“Princess Selaha was also present at the scene and did something like this… This is truly a challenge to the imperial family!”

Little by little, the nobles began to raise their voices.

Soon they were talking among themselves, and then they gathered in droves and made their way towards the commander of the cathedral knights.

The moment I was about to tell them to prepare to report to the imperial family immediately, the image of Princess Fenia caught the eyes of the VIPs.

Third Princess Fenia Elias Cloel. There is no need for further introduction, just saying the name. Among the royal family whom all nobles looked up to, she was the girl whose name was most widely known.

“Princess Pefenia!”

“Princess Fenia, why…!”

“No, not in a place like this…!”

Color began to appear on the faces of the nobles. I don’t know why Princess Fenia was at the scene, but if she had been here watching the whole situation, there would be no need to explain in detail how cruel the Rosstaylor family was.

Princess Fenia is one of the key figures in the imperial family and has great influence. If you can convince her of the situation, everything from now on will be smooth sailing.

“Respected Princess Fenia! Look at this! We saw the whole situation from inside! The Rosstaylor family is evil and has been planning a massacre for a long time!”

“That crazy matriarch tried to sacrifice us all to that monster! We had no choice but to run away!”

“The same goes for all of the Rothtaylor family! Whether it’s the heir Tanya Rothtaylor or her son Ed Rothtaylor, they are all human beings who deserve to be killed! They are all in the same group! The same goes for the vassals, and most of them have already become monsters!”

Princess Fenia calmly assessed the situation while listening to the VIPs shouting.

The person who is biding his time against Mebula floating in the sky is clearly Lucy Mayril, who has joined Ed’s side.

In that case, Princess Fenia believes that at least Ed is not joining Crepin. Rather, it is correct to see the situation as standing at opposite points.

Otherwise, there would be no reason for Lucy to stop that huge monster.

Princess Fenia, who quickly assessed the situation, was about to evacuate the VIPs to a safe place. A few manifested spirits flew

in

and flew towards the broken outer wall.

The huge spirit army that covers the sky, as well as the flying spirits… It is not common in the world for an elementalist to be able to handle that number of spirits.

The spirits that had hovered in the surrounding sky several times were flying towards the hole in the broken outer wall again, as if they had finished checking, and were entering the grounds of the mansion.

Before anyone could stop her, Princess Fenia jumped on her horse and quickly drove towards the broken outer wall.

“What?!”

“Princess Fenia?!”

The knights were so shocked that they could not react. After all, who in the world would dare enter the grounds of that hellish mansion?

However, Princess Fenia kicked off her horse and ran after the spirit. After jumping over the broken remains of the outer wall and running along the wall outside the mansion site for a while, the spirit’s destination was finally visible.

The sparrow perched on the tip of the girl’s finger chirped something, flapping its wings a few times. It’s like a subordinate reporting everything he saw.

What Princess Fenia saw beyond the broken outer wall was the appearance of a girl who escorted the VIPs and rescued them all to the outside. It is clear that he commanded the spirits’ army and contributed to reducing casualties as much as possible.

That’s because that girl is covering up all the gremlins that are flocking around her.

He single-handedly saved dozens of high-ranking nobles.

That in itself was a great achievement, enough to receive not only an imperial commendation but even a minor title… but the girl didn’t seem to care about that at all. To begin with, he barely showed up in front of people.

On the contrary, he looks very busy. He was stomping his feet as if there was something more important than this.

“Yes, okay. Clearing up misunderstandings is important, but saving your life is more important right now… so we have to go to Ed first… we can persuade him later.”

The image of a girl quickly talking to a spirit under the moonlight.

Only then did the girl seem to notice the presence of Princess Fenia.

“Eh!”

The girl, whose appearance was so immature that it did not match her great power, was startled when she saw Princess Fenia.

He must have chewed his tongue, tears streaming down his face, and he was flailing his arms and seemed embarrassed because he didn’t know what to say.

“You… protected the distinguished guests, Yenica Palover.”

“I just did what Ed asked. Now I have to get to Ed.”

Yenika didn’t explain at length either. Although we succeeded in minimizing human casualties, we have not yet completely foiled Crepin’s plans.

The most important thing is to catch the crepins. He is the mastermind behind all of this and is the mediator in the descent of the evil god Mebula.

“Ed… Ross Taylor…?”

“Princess. You must not listen to those distinguished guests. I know your desire to bring down the Rosstaylor family, but…”

Jenica looked at Princess Fenia and spoke straight.

“Right now, Ed is trying to stop Kraffin Rosstaylor. Please believe him. Ed is a direct descendant of Kraffin, but at least he didn’t join Kraffin. Even though he is a member of the same Rosstailor family, Ed is on his own…. ”

“Okay. I’ll believe it.”

Jenica suddenly shook her head at Princess Fenia’s refreshing reaction.

Yenica never thought that Princess Fenia would trust Ed so readily.

I thought I would have to convince him with a more logical basis, but Princess Fenia did not doubt Ed from the beginning.

Rather, if he really stops Crepin, he will not be someone who should hang himself on the gallows, but someone who should be revered as a hero of national salvation.

“I just need to see him in person and check. Where is he now?”

As Princess Fenia spoke, Yenica turned her gaze towards the annex of the mansion.

Crepin Ross Taylor is located on the rooftop.

* * *

The sound of people going up and down the stairs echoed all the way to the rooftop.

―Kaang kang!

The sound of a large sword being swept across the floor and then hitting the stairs was also heard.

A blond boy covered in blood walks up the stairs to the rooftop.

In one hand, a dagger is held in reverse, and in the other hand, the hilt of the great sword ‘Danshin’ is held. It was Arwen’s keepsake.

Luden’s holy sword, which has an advantage over all types of defensive magic and is even endowed with acceleration magic… is now in Ed’s possession.

The other great sword Arwen was carrying, ‘Daybreak of Dawn’, was heavier than expected and the elemental magic given to it was something Ed knew how to do, so he did not take it separately.

To begin with, Ed has never trained in swordsmanship or anything like that. So, even if you carry a great sword, no matter how powerful it is, you cannot fully utilize its abilities.

Kaang kang!

However, there was another reason why he took the sword.

As you climb the stairs, the sound of a sword hitting each step of the stairs echoes repeatedly through the rooftop.

Crepin Rosstaylor has a hunch. Ed Rosstaylor is coming.

All respect for the family has burned away and a monster covered in blood has come to hunt Crepin.

The grounds of the mansion were already approaching a living hell, but the annex that Ed had completely swept away was eerily quiet.

Tanya was sitting next to Arwen’s body.

He was holding Arwen’s hand as it grew cold and burying his face in her shoulder. Ed went up to the rooftop alone, leaving Mug as his escort to help Tanya gather her composure.

Kaang! Kaang!

The sound of the blade of the great sword hitting the stairs slowly ends and changes back to the sound of it being dragged on the roof floor. It reached the rooftop.

A boy covered in blood walks under the open sky.

I glared at Crepin, who was sitting quietly on the broken railing, holding the great sword dragging on the floor.

Crepin immediately recognized the identity of the great sword in Ed’s hand.

“You’re here.”

Ed does not respond to Crepin’s words. He simply took out the great sword of Arwen he had brought with him and slammed it into the floor.

Sigh!

The great sword stuck on the floor was soaked in blood.

The reason I brought this sword was to clearly show who I cut down to get up here.

In the end, the path Ed has always walked is a thorny path. Crepin didn’t know that either.

Crepin quietly rose from the railing that was spread out like a throne. The temple for sacrificial offerings is still in operation. Although it is far from completion, the target is already clearly aimed at the nobles.

The VIPs may not know that the magic gun is pointed at them at this very moment.

“It’s been a long journey.”

Crepin speaks quietly.

“Let us finish now.”

Ed stood next to the great sword stuck in the ground and quietly raised his head.

This is where the relationship with the disjointed Ross Taylor family ends. He quietly lowers his head and prepares to do his best. He draws out all the magic power in his body and glares at Crepin with intense eyes between his blood-covered face.

The Wind Blows.

The wind that rises like a whirlpool on the roof of the Ross Taylor mansion annex revolves around Ed.

As soon as the rising wind died down, a huge wolf howl rang out.

“Aww,” Merilda’s cries cut through the night sky of the Ross Taylor mansion.

It can be seen at a glance from anywhere on the Ross Taylor mansion grounds.

A huge wolf, which was overwhelming just to look at, let out a growling sound from the roof of the annex.
