I Became the Heavenly Demon of the Academy

Raid (4)

The past, now even memories have faded.

In a cold room, I longed for that world of nothingness and narrowness.

knight 俠客

I dreamed of being an ally.

Those who did not spare their lives and carried out the agreement with nothing seemed to shine more than any other stars.

However, the Moorim that I actually saw.

There was a radish, but the narrowing was not visible.

The actions of those who call themselves righteous men or swordsmen are often more shady and uglier than the actions of the Parakhos in the street.

“Does righteousness and justice really exist in this world?”

I don’t know exactly when.

It was a question I asked my teacher when I was still young.

Having fallen into the cruel world of Moorim and seeing all sorts of filthy and horrendous things unlike the fantasy, I asked with a sense of skepticism.

I can’t remember what Master said to me at the time.

However, after that, I thought that I would not be able to become a knight.

The knights were no different from the heroes in the movies.

I never thought or could be a hero.

A few people around me were more important to me than thousands or tens of thousands of people I don’t even know.

The distance from the city council building in the Schultz Free Imperial City to the academy was rather long. Even the academy site is quite the size of a territory, and there is no way that Shultz City, one of the largest cities in the empire, is small in area.

As soon as I left the main conference hall, I was running fast using light air, and an unknown feeling of anxiety came over me.

When the level rises and the upper phase begins to develop, an intuition like a supernatural power arises.

And my intuition was ringing the alarm more strongly than ever.

At this rate, it would be too late.

I’m sure something like that will happen, something I’ll regret.

bang!

With every step I took, I felt the surroundings being chaotic by the shock wave.

Although it didn’t show too much because of the chaotic situation in the city.

It was running at a much faster speed than the horse, but it was not enough.

I couldn’t hide my frustration, but suddenly, the black lightning vibrated strongly inside me.

At the same time, a lightning-like realization flashed through my brain.

fish sword flight

It was an ascending art of swordsmanship, riding on a sword in the state of unity of body and sword and flying freely through the air.

Before I even knew it, my feet were already standing on the black lightning, and before I knew it, I soared high into the sky, cutting through the clouds.

Second place in the entrance exam, seeker Maximilian.

Maximilian was abandoned at the age of less than a year in front of a monastery called the Minor Brothers, and grew up there until he entered the academy.

As the name suggests, the Little Brotherhood was small, but only a handful of monks stayed.

It was a group of warriors who were one of the strongest in the entire continent in terms of their skills.

Their martial arts developed on the basis of sincere faith showed the greatest effect in exorcism.

Even without anyone noticing, in the dark, they continued to fight against the demonic beings.

Although they weren’t famous, that’s why those who knew them respected and looked up to the Friars Minor monks, calling them seekers.

And Maximilian was a person who was expected to be the best seeker in history, embodying all the visions of the Little Brotherhood.

Today, as usual, Maximilian was sitting in a good location, meditating quietly, wearing a pitch-black habit symbolizing the Brotherhood of Minor.

While he was kneeling like that for a while and praying, a brilliant white light poured from Maximilian’s chest.

The black cross amulet containing the bones of a saint was shining brightly as if to give a warning.

As far as Maximilian knew, there was only one reason why the saint’s amulet glowed like this.

A demonic presence is around.

That’s how he was the first to notice the abnormality in this academy, and slowly woke up.

The most important thing in responding to demonic beings was speed.

Even if they were to be eradicated, it would only be true when all the people to be protected died before that.

Before harming people, finding and subduing them as soon as possible was the most important thing.

There were more than enough of those skills in the Brotherhood of Minor Vision.

Maximillian instantly searched for and found the existence of a nearby demon, but soon sighed.

‘late.’

I arrived at the scene faster than anyone else, but Mine, with blood on his mouth, was crushing the bodies of two young men who had already died.

As if expressing intense anger.

Once in that state, there was no turning back.

The demon that once consumed a human life could never return to its former state.

The biggest driving force for humans to become demons has always been anger.

Seeing her obsession with the corpse like that, Maximillian finished guessing the context.

It was unfortunate.

There were so many cases like that on the continent.

However, it was a pity that I couldn’t look at it.

It is the duty of a Friars Minor to confront the presence of demons.

Maximilian swallowed a low saliva, wrapped a steel rosary around his fist and naturally raised his spirits.

“Kreur…”

Thomas, who had already lost his temper, saw Maximilian approaching and took a cautious step back.

“I’m sorry, brother. I can’t come sooner.”

Perhaps Thomas instinctively sensed Maximilian’s skills, and instead of fighting back, he took the posture of running away.

A white halo of light shone on Maximilian’s two fists, which quickly made the sign of the cross, and at the same time, the ground caved in with a thud.

Thomas was already running back, but Maximilian caught up much faster.

bang!

The pure white flickering punches were precisely driven into the vicinity of the spine, and Thomas rolled over just as he was running.

In the midst of the raging dirt wind, Maximillian grabbed Thomas’ head with a hand as large as a pot lid and slammed it to the ground.

As if in prayer, kneel down, head bowed.

I held Thomas by the head with one hand and mechanically slammed him to the ground until his body stopped moving.

‘Lord, have pity on us.’

Inwardly, I constantly beg for mercy.

Eventually, after confirming that Thomas had completely stopped breathing, Maximillian stood up without shaking his hands, which were covered in blood, brain fluid and dust.

The saint’s amulet was still radiating a radiant glow.

It was obviously unusual.

If demons were born so easily, there wouldn’t be anyone in the world who wasn’t demons.

But now wasn’t the time to think about that.

The more hesitating, the more likely someone is to die.

Making that decision, Maximilian quickly began searching for other mines.

“Julia Rosenberg!”

A voice calling for Yulia was heard outside the waiting area. Yulia, who had been waiting with her sword tightly wrapped around her, closed her eyes and took a deep breath, then went out to the arena.

Yulia’s older brother, Godwin, was already standing at the top of the arena, holding a sword. As he saw Yulia approaching, he glared at him as if he were going to eat him.

“Don’t make me regret challenging me with your flimsy skills, Yulia.”

Godwin gave a low growl and opened his mouth.

“…”

Julia didn’t answer. Anyway, the more you mix your words, the more your brother’s anger will grow. I’d rather keep my mouth shut than that. I thought so.

“Are you ignoring me at all!”

Godwin snarled, assuming that Yulia, who was standing there silently, was ignoring him.

“…”

“You two, this is sparring. Permanent harm to each other is absolutely forbidden.”

Perhaps sensing the unusual atmosphere between the two, test supervisor Pedro issued another strong warning.

Calming her hands shaking with tension, Yulia gazed at Godwin. can do. It was a fact that Master also acknowledged. The odds were good enough. Everything depended on Julia herself. He regulated his breathing while raising the extraordinary energy of the spectral ray to the limit. The nerves throughout the body are further strengthened, and in a world where time seems to have stopped.

At the same time as Godwin started, he threw out a sword strike.

Jjoong!

Yulia’s strength, strengthened by Elixir and Beehive Water, had already easily surpassed that of her peers, and easily countered Godwin’s sword attack, which was approaching the level of a master.

‘It’s worth it.’

Every time they exchanged swords, Yulia’s mind began to understand each and every detail of the Rosenberg swordsmanship she had seen so far. How Godwin implements Rosenberg’s electronic swordsmanship, how he uses internal strength, and how he moves his muscles.

My energy was concentrated in the top battle, and my head was hot as if it were on fire.

“How can you…!”

Godwin was furious. And those who are angry naturally become simpler in their form. Every moment they exchanged sword strikes, Yulia rather felt freedom. Like a bird trying to get out of its cage, I could feel the huge wall called the Rosenberg slowly lowering and cracking.

Yulia, who had been concentrating on defense until now, took the first step. The outside air, taken in from the Yongcheon blood on the soles of her feet, circulated through Yulia’s blood, and a faint light of dawn was applied to her whole body.

Whoa!

Yulia’s powerful blow as she took the offensive was enough to make even Godwin, who was overcome with rage, flinch for a moment. Wrinkling his eyebrows, Godwin regained his composure, but it was too late. It was getting more and more difficult to block Yulia’s double attack, which was shooting like a beam of light.

As the fight continued, Yulia’s sword sharpened, while Godwin grew weary of this incomprehensible task. Situations outside of cognition were a law that rapidly impoverished human beings, and Godwin was no exception to that law.

thud!

Every time Yulia swung her sword, Godwin’s wrists tingled. I don’t know what he was doing in the meantime, but Godwin, who was called a genius when it came to handling mana, was rather being pushed behind. Quantity is quantity and also in terms of speed.

cringe

Godwin clenched his teeth as if they would break them. I deliberately didn’t want to use Aura. Being pushed back by Yulia’s “something” with swordsmanship was something Godwin couldn’t tolerate. But defeat was even more improbable.

Godwin quickly retreated back and adjusted his posture. Godwin hadn’t even reached the point where he could pull out the aura right away.

“Yeah two years…!”

Julia didn’t answer. Godwin had already stopped coming into Yulia’s eyes. He just faced the wall inside himself. At the boundary between consciousness and unconsciousness, Yulia naturally felt Godwin raising her inner strength.

Then, inside of himself, he heard the sound of something breaking. It was also the high wall that blocked Yulia, and also the hard shell that cut off Yulia from the world.

Godwin rushing forward with his sword covered over it looked slow, like a scene in a painting.

At that moment, Yulia realized that something had completely collapsed inside her head.

Whether it was a wall, a shell, or whatever it was, it was also the sound of Yulia flying away from the old world.

In a state close to trance, Yulia’s sword began to glow with red energy.

Red lotus sword

In the meantime, the sword Yulia had polished had finally blossomed into a red flower.

Godwin’s blue sword spirit was cut in two.

Yulia moved the new model elegantly as if performing a sword dance and approached Godwin, aiming her sword at the scruff of her neck.

“S… Winner, Julia Rosenberg!”

Pedro, who had been watching this scene from afar and could not take his eyes off it, hurriedly came to his senses and declared Yulia’s victory.

“I’m sorry, brother…”

While Yulia, who had apologized in a low voice, was about to leave the arena.

“Huh… heh heh…”

A ghastly laugh sounded from behind.

Wow-!

Yulia, who felt an eerie energy coming from behind, immediately turned around and blocked it. Unlike before, Godwin’s sword contained a powerful experience that made his entire body tingle.

“What insolence is this!”

After Yulia blocked the deal, Pedro appeared immediately and intercepted Godwin and tried to subdue him. However, even with the skills of Professor Schultz Academy, it was not easy to subdue Godwin, who had flashing red eyes, and instead, Pedro gradually began to be pushed back.

She wanted to help Pedro, but Julia’s body had already reached its limit. Besides, I didn’t have enough skills to intervene between me and share the battle. I don’t know what Godwin did all of a sudden, but his skills rose rapidly as if he had changed as a person.

bang!

Godwin cut off Pedro’s sword and kicked Pedro into the wall with a beastly kick.

“Gagging!”

I don’t think he died, but Pedro was incapacitated in an instant.

Dududuk.

Godwin’s red eyes shone again and he bent his head to look at Yulia.

It is absolutely impossible to win. It is impossible to escape. She held her sword firmly, but Yulia already knew that it was a meaningless resistance.

Still, I had no intention of willingly giving up my life. I raised my momentum again with the thought of giving it a final blow.

Godwin smiled like a madman, tearing the corners of his mouth up to the bottom of his ears as if he was laughing.

Biting the inside of her lip, Yulia made up her mind, and Godwin kicked the ground.

Watching Godwin approach, Yulia thought.

I also didn’t want to die. I wanted to live. I wanted to see you one more time.

Sensing the last moment of his life, he honestly felt a heart that he did not even know.

The moment Yulia was about to close her eyes as she raised her sword.

Kwaaang—!

A sword slashed from the air, destroying the numerous magic defenses and multiple walls hanging from the ceiling of Amelia Hall.

The jet-black sword that Julia had seen a lot so far separated the relationship between Yulia and Godwin as if defining a boundary.

thud!

At the spot where the sword had been slashed, one of the men landed downward, creating vibrations and shockwaves in the field as if pressing down on the atmosphere.

“You worked hard, Yulia.”

That wide back reflected in her eyes was familiar to Yulia as well.
