Chapter 43
10 minutes before the ceremony is complete.
Let Skaya act independently from her teammates and walk leisurely through the forest.
-Keek!!
From behind, a goblin, a low-level monster, rushes towards her with a fist ax that looks like something made in the Paleolithic Age.
Skaya snapped her middle finger and thumb without even looking at the goblin.
– Puff!
A magic formula came out from under the goblin’s feet, and a spear made of magic soared.
– Keek!
The goblin could not dodge the attack and struggled with its abdomen pierced. Then, not long after, he died, dripping blood on the floor.
Skaya looked around, covering the sunlight with her hand as if she had no interest in such a goblin.
“no. The real Kane. This guy told me to give him a first evaluation, but he doesn’t come to see me!”
Skaya rolled her feet with a slightly sullen expression.
I didn’t have to fall for the atmosphere back then!!
***
a few days ago.
When Kane suddenly asked to meet with a serious face in the world, Skaya waited with a slightly stiff face.
Uh, what do you do?
To be honest, meeting him alone doesn’t mean much.
Until now, we trained alone, and recently we went together.
The only problem is that the place we want to meet is at the back of the main building, where the Royal Academy is famous for confessing to someone.
It’s obvious that we don’t want to see each other alone in such a place.
Go, confess!
Uh… Have you been too close lately?
Obviously, lately, I’ve been sticking around with Kane.
No matter how close your childhood friends are, if you stick with them, you can recognize the other person as a woman at some point.
Even now, he thinks he’s about to confess, so he doesn’t recognize Kane as a man again.
So it’s no wonder he thinks he likes him.
thump thump.
I feel like my heart is beating faster than usual.
So far, I’ve gotten some confessions here, but why are you doing this…?
When Skaya took a deep breath to calm herself down for a moment.
“uh? Were you here first?”
“Hey Yay!!”
Suddenly Kane appeared from behind and let out a feminine scream involuntarily.
Kane is startled by Skaya’s scream.
“What, what? Why are you screaming like that? Anyone who sees it will know that I am attacking you.”
“You, it’s because you suddenly appear from behind!!”
“no. Am I just walking?”
“Ugh! I try not to lose once.”
At Skaya’s words, Kane shrugged with a relaxed face.
“hey. by the way. What are you so nervous about?”
“Wow, what!”
“no. You’re even sweating from your face.”
To make sure what he said was true, Skaya touched her face with her hand.
What, what?! Are you really sweating?
“And your face is very red?”
“More, it’s because it’s hot!”
Skaya waved her arms in denial of Kane’s words.
Kane looked at her like that and tilted her head.
“For that kind of thing, the weather is chilly today, isn’t it?”
“Ahh!! Anyway, it’s not that important! Tell me why you called quickly!”
“okay. What·····.”
It is said that Kane opened and closed her mouth with a worried face after hearing Skaya’s words.
Seeing his expression, Skaya gulped dry saliva! swallowed
Gee, I really want to confess. that guy!
Other than that, there’s no reason to say something like that.
uh, uh, what?
Up until now, I thought of him only as a friend, but the sudden confession is so embarrassing.
Well, should I refuse?
Apart from his own feelings, Richie, who has been friends with Kane since childhood, his ex-fiance Ilyn, and Saint Anje, obviously like him.
I don’t understand why he wants to confess to himself leaving those three people behind, but it is not polite to the girls who like Kane to accept his confession with such an ambivalent heart.
That’s why they felt sincere.
So when she decided what to do, Kane bowed her head.
“Sky. Can you change the performance evaluation date from the second to the first?”
“yes. okay. I’ll take it… Huh?! what?”
“uh? Did you say accept? certainly? Okay~”
Kane is enjoying himself with a bright smile as if he didn’t hear what he was saying.
what? What did I hear?
“Wait a minute, Kane. What did you just say?”
“yes? Say ok.”
“no. I said it before.”
“Did you say that you can change the performance evaluation date from the second to the first?”
“·················ogue.”
what? How is this feeling?
To be honest, what about changing the performance evaluation from the 2nd to the 1st?
Does not matter. Whether it’s the second or the first, I’m confident in my skills.
Just…why are you so annoyed?
I’m sure he’s lucky that he didn’t confess, but somehow it feels like blood is welling up in my head.
no. It must be an illusion. I just can’t be so mad about something like this.
Skaya asked Kane, who was blushing in denial of reality and was excited.
“…Kane. But I have a question. Why did you have to say that here?”
“yes? oh Because this place is famous for not passing by. So it was. In the first place, it’s like doing this in front of people.”
“right·····.”
he’s right If you dare say that in front of your students, you’re sure to get bad news and even get the professors’ attention.
That’s right, but…
“okay. I will change it according to your words. Because the crew always said it didn’t matter. But… let’s get you right!!”
“why not?!”
Skaya slapped Kane’s back with all his might, blushing, and he was hit enough to leave a palm print on his back without knowing why.
***
Skaya woke up from her thoughts and let out a deep sigh.
“ha. See you after the performance evaluation. Kane…”
As she pouted her lips like that, a dark light suddenly erupted. At the same time, the ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred.
– Grump Grump!!
Earthquakes cause nearby trees to fall one after another. The birds, sitting comfortably on the branches, flap their wings and soar through the sky as if fleeing.
“what?! What happened all of a sudden?”
In the midst of a sudden situation, Skaya opened her eyes wide and panicked. A voice came from the bracelets the professors had handed out.
-ah. oh Students taking performance assessments Use the transfers on your bracelet right now. Let me say it again.
With those words, without hesitation, Skaya injected magical energy into the bracelet and used transference.

Meanwhile at that time.
In the end, Kim Soo-yong was unable to find the denominations, so he kicked his tongue and transferred.
The transition changed the surrounding landscape from a tree to a building.
Starting with Kim Soo-yong, students began to appear one by one.
Whoa. Let’s start with Kane.
He is also a person who knows about this situation just like himself.
So you may know how this is now.
Let’s look around and look for Kane.
“Hey there! Here David von Cain is injured!”
Someone uttered those words in an urgent voice.
Kim Soo-yong heard those words and ran towards it to check what had happened.
·····this. crazy.
I couldn’t stop swearing.
Even so, Kane’s body was stunned, covered in scars, to the point that I wondered how he was still alive.
It was fortunate that there were no fatal injuries, but it was not strange that he died of bleeding if he made a mistake.
Illin, Jenny, and Skaya, who were nearby, also opened their eyes with bewildered faces, wondering if only she was surprised.
Then Ilyn asked the priest who was restoring Kane in a weeping voice.
“Lord, you won’t die, will you?”
“····yes. Fortunately, there are no major fatal injuries, so it is unlikely that he will die.”
The three of them sighed in relief. Maybe it was because the tension was released, and the faces of the three of them suddenly changed.
“by the way. How did Kane get so hurt? He’s not weak enough to be attacked by lesser monsters.”
Both of them nodded their heads in sympathy with Skaya’s question.
“I don’t know who exactly it was, but looking at the wounds, it’s probably not from a monster.”
Illin and Skaya frowned harshly at the priest’s words. After a while, the two managed to suppress their anger as Kane could harm them.
hmmm. You seem to be close with Kane, but wouldn’t it be better to tell the truth?
After all, looking at the situation now, it is fate that we will find out later.
So whether later or now, there is no big difference.
“Whoa. You guys are Kane’s friends, aren’t you?”
At Kim Soo-yong’s question, the two turned their heads to themselves and tilted their heads.
“yes. That’s right.”
“no. I am a childhood friend.”
“····uh. okay. Anyway, that’s how Kane is…”
“done. Kim Soo-yong, I’ll tell you.”
As soon as Kim Soo-yong was about to speak, Kane seemed to have regained consciousness, frowned in pain and cut off his words.
When Skaya and Ilyn see Kane, they run towards him and hug him.
“Ke, Kane!”
“Hey bastard!”
The two hugged with concern, but Kane, whose body was covered with scars, complained of pain without knowing that feeling.
“aah!! I will die!!”
***
Kane, who barely escaped the pain, explained everything that had happened so far.
Hearing the explanation, Skaya, Illin, Jenny, Kim Soo-yong, professor, etc. all turned serious.
“So. You went to the place where the dark light happened earlier and there was a demon and you were attacked by that guy?”
“yes. And I think it was the church that summoned that demon.”
“exactly. They’re the ones who usually do things like this. okay. Then the performance evaluation is stopped. Go back to the warp gate right now.”
At William’s words, the rest of the professors and priests nodded their heads.
So, when the priests lifted the patient Kane and put it inside the warp gate to return right now, something unexpected happened.
“·····professor. The warp gate does not trigger.”
“What? suddenly?”
“yes.”
Lucy went near the warp gate to see what had happened. For a moment she interprets while touching the warp gate device.
-Keek!!
– Crook!!
– Whoa!
Outside the building, low-level monsters begin to attack, ignoring the barrier.
Seeing this, William frowned roughly and scratched the back of his head as if annoyed.
“This Mr. I’m still annoyed, but how did they break through the barrier again?”
“Gyo, professor demons!! me····.”
“uh. I know.”
With that said, William walked out of the building. He looked around with a tired face and opened his mouth.
“It’s also very dirty. Did the devil do it? tt!”
William kicked his tongue and, without seeing any lesser monsters, raised his flag and raised his fist lightly.
– Whoops!
The pure white flag of his fist attacked dozens of demons. The monsters that had been attacked properly became ashes and perished without even screaming. Most of the students who saw it opened their mouths in shock.
Even so, William had never thought that he was strong because his rough image was so strong, but when he showed his power like this, he realized that he was a professor at the Royal Academy.
“Ha ha. Professor Lucy? How is it?”
“yes. It seems that Magi is interfering with the Warp Gate device, making it impossible to operate. In my opinion, the only way to solve this is by killing the demon that Kane was talking about. ah! And, as an added bonus, it seems that Magi intervened in the barrier.”
There was a moment of silence in the building. Zion broke the silence to lead the students.
“Then, is anyone going to catch the devil?”
At that, Ilyn and Skaya raised their hands with lively eyes.
Shion glanced at the two of them.
exactly. Normally, those two people with the greatest talents of all time are unconditionally helpful.
Although it is a freshman year, it has already been a long time since they have crossed the boundaries of a student, and they will not be swayed by the professors themselves, except for experience. However.
“The two are not.”
“”yes?!””
The two of them opened their eyes as they could not have expected Shion’s decisive rejection.
Skaya asked with an incomprehensible face.
“Why, we can’t, Professor? To be honest, I’m proud of my ability, right?”
“yes. Let me be honest. First off, you guys are so excited right now about Kane. Let’s go to that state. It’s not helping, it’s just a hindrance. So, stay here and protect Kane while dealing with the monsters that come in. That is for him.”
At Zion’s words, the two of them bit their teeth and didn’t say anything.
As I said, I’m so angry that I can’t control my anger.
“Then I will go.”
“If Soo-yong goes out, I will go too.”
“I will go too.”
Kim Soo-yong and his teammates Lane and Burke raised their hands.
not bad.
Needless to say, Kim Soo-yong is a little lacking, but if it’s at Burke’s level, it won’t be a hindrance.
Rain is also excellent at buffs and recovery techniques, so it will be of great help.
“All right. Then I, Suyong Kim’s members, and Professor William will go like this. I will leave the rest of the student leadership to Professor Butler and Professor Lucy.”
“yes. Don’t worry, you can come here comfortably.”
At Shion’s words, Butler raised and lowered the sword and nodded.
To do such a demon raid, the main character and his party went out of the building.

Meanwhile at that time.
As Kane ate the popcorn, he looked through the scope with anticipation and the clones following his orders.
