Academy Assassination Genius - Academy Assassination Genius chapter 104

Ben Gibraltar seemed to have given up pursuing me, and stopped there.

In the meantime, as much as the numerous scars on the armor created by memorization, the sword contained enough aura to shine brilliantly.

‘Isn’t that the other side just being beaten?’

I know you’ve lost your concentration.

It seems that he intends to put an end to this attack.

Beneath the helmet, Ben Gibraltar’s eyes met.

‘The big one is coming.’

I must be determined too.

With that amount of Aura, a wide-ranged attack that spreads beyond the trail of the sword would follow.

“I don’t like this composition very much.”

I didn’t expect an answer, but he pointed at me with his two-handed sword.

“I know you don’t like strength contests very much, but this seems like the only way to win.”

“You don’t seem to care about the next match.”

“Because I’m not in a situation where I can relax like anyone else.”

relax… .

Certainly, an opponent who was about as good as Ben Gibraltar until a few months ago.

He would have opened every door that could be opened, squeezed mana, and fought a desperate short-term battle.

[This is proof that you have become stronger.]

‘I’m just feeling that this isn’t enough.’

The one-sided fight like now was possible because they were compatible.

It was only possible because I had a way to bypass the aura-enhanced shield and armor.

‘Is a genius a genius? I succeeded in blocking it a couple of times by attacking it with an aura on the spot.’

I had the experience of being blocked by Namgoong-Ik once, so I didn’t explode the mana from the inside of my body at the same time as I hit.

I’m glad I learned how to make it explode after giving it some grace period.

If it wasn’t for that, I would have been blocked and helpless.

The aura contained in the sword has reached an oversaturated state.

It reached a state where it overflowed without being able to contain it all in the sword.

“Goes.”

A stream of golden light gushed over his sword.

Although it was the appearance of the sword that promised victory in a certain game.

Whether that attack would lead to his victory was unknown.

‘As long as it comes out like that, I’ll have to hit it back.’

It wasn’t that there was no way to avoid or stop it.

Create a thick shadow with Mubong Cloth and use ＜Poem of the Jackdaw＞ to sink under it for a while to avoid it.

It was possible to pour all the mana into the Kowloon Mythology Team and create a wall made of chains to block it.

‘Maegu.’

I pinched the urethra in reverse.

Golden waves crashing towards me.

Compared to that, my sword was too dwarfed.

[Leave it to me.]

I poured mana into the sword.

The transparent mana is dyed in the color of every arrow.

A pale purple yogi bloomed on top of the sword.

Aiming for one point.

Read the flow, cut it off.

On top of the description of the Samjae swordsmanship learned from Namgungik, the swordsmanships I have seen so far.

The experience of the sword, which he wielded several times in real battle, began to accumulate.

So it should be called like this.

Nameless Swordsmanship – Vertical Slash.

I swung the sword I was holding in reverse as if I was swinging it from bottom to top.

Movements are as simple as possible.

However, he read the black texture and swung it.

“Ugh… .”

The shock was not transmitted from the hand holding the sword.

Instead, the displaced shock shook his mind.

“Cut out your emotions.”

I was not used to a head-to-head match, a contest of strength, which was my defeat.

The golden wave swept over my body once and then disappeared beyond it.

If it had just been traumatic, it would have been normal to lose consciousness.

“Are you blocking this?”

I heard the words of Ben Gibraltar filled with regret.

couldn’t stop

I was thinking of lifting it up and letting it flow, but I failed.

If the physical shock had not been replaced by the psychological shock, wouldn’t my half-cut corpse have been scattered?

I must have overestimated my swordsmanship skills.

“this time… I will admit my defeat.”

It must have been that he used all his auras in one hit.

With a thump, Ben Gibraltar’s body slowly fell forward.

It was embarrassing, but it was my victory.

[The rules were in your favor.]

‘I don’t want to win twice in the same way.’

The fatigue was considerable.

I felt like I wanted to lie down right here and go into a deep sleep.

“Winner Hanzo!”

““Wow!!””

Along with the referee’s words, cheers erupted.

I couldn’t enjoy the cheers with joy.

* * *

“Winner Anton Ivanov!”

““Waa!!!””

After a melee, Anton won.

His fight was the last round of 32 matches.

After some break, the round of 16 follows.

“I’m tired, so why don’t we have something to drink?”

It seemed like I was going to fall asleep if I did it wrong.

Once you’ve won 1,

The minimum reward would come from the sub quest.

‘It’s not polite to do that after winning.’

The withdrawal was not courtesy to Ben Gibralur, who was defeated by me.

Looking at the condition, it seems that there is a high probability of losing the next match.

The next opponent is an unknown sophomore.

The battle luck wasn’t so bad this time.

If I had to fight against guys like Shin Sung-ah, Kang Min-hyuk, and Yoo Hyeon-hwa, my defeat would have been predestined.

‘I just used too much mana in the fight.’

I was thinking of using less than half.

I used up more than 60%.

The amount of mana used to respond to Ben Gibraltar’s final attack was greater than expected.

‘It would have been worthwhile if it had been successful even if it consumed that much.’

[Even if the timing wasn’t off at the end, I could have let it go.]

‘Catch the sense. I think I can do it next time. I don’t know if that opportunity will come.’

Anyway, it was a fight that made me realize that I was still a beginner in swordsmanship.

“I can’t. I need some coffee.”

To relieve fatigue, I headed to the vending machine.

It wasn’t inside the building, so I had to go outside.

There were no crowds recognizing my face and rushing at me.

‘I brought a pen just in case.’

[You drank kimchi soup in a bowl.]

I thought about it for a while because I wanted to wake up better if I ate something spicy.

I drank a normal Americano.

write.

I’ll just drink it as a latte.

wince-

In the meantime, I got a strange feeling from a passerby who passed me.

Although I had to ponder for a while at the foreign sensation I felt for the first time.

I was able to find the answer quickly.

＜Demon Hunter＞

A rare attribute obtained after fighting Leviathan, the great devil of jealousy.

A trait that had never been activated before had just made its presence known for the first time.

‘The ＜Demon Hunter＞ responded to the demon’s power.’

I immediately followed after him.

On the outside, I couldn’t find much difference from other visitors.

It seems that he is hiding his demonic power fairly well.

[How do you keep up with the tournament?]

‘That way is more important.’

Because, among those who caused the incident in the original work, no one related to the devil existed.

What are the odds of a good devil worshiper who just came to see the festival?

And the only good devil worshipers are dead devil worshippers.

* * *

‘Take that demon worshiper off the hook and tell him what you’re here for… .’

What did I just think?

The devil-worshipers now following were the ones who were in charge of the axis of evil in the novel.

However, my actions now were overly impulsive.

It is true that the existence of the devil worshipers appearing at the festival site is a variable, but it is not urgent enough to require an immediate response.

Through a series of thought processes, I realized that my condition was not normal.

“Cut out your emotions.”

Emotions that are cut off at the same time as my cognition.

I thought that if ＜Mindfulness of the Blade＞ had excessive emotions beyond a certain level, they would all be cut out without distinction.

I never thought I would have needed to recognize that feeling in the process.

Thanks to the emotions that were cut off, I was able to judge the situation calmly.

‘Right now, it’s enough just to keep an eye on it.’

Due to mental fatigue, I made judgments more hastily and impulsively than usual.

No, it won’t be all that.

‘Perhaps it was influenced by ＜Demon Hunter＞.’

Characteristics have a great influence on a person’s character, disposition, and so on.

It was because of her unique characteristics that Yoo Hyeon-hwa is weak against provocation and has a hot-tempered personality that boils easily.

I checked the description of the property once again.

＜Demon Hunter＞

classification

– Rare traits

Explanation

– All attacks are fatal when fighting demons or beings with demonic powers.

-Has resistance to the attacks of demons or beings with demonic powers.

– When demonic power exists nearby, you can detect it even if it is hidden.

There is nothing in the description itself that relates to enmity or aversion to demons.

However, from the contents of the original work and my experience so far, I am well aware that the description of a trait does not explain all the abilities of that trait.

‘Normally, I wouldn’t have been affected as badly as I am now, but the condition is the condition.’

Because I was mentally exhausted, the effect of the ＜Demon Hunter＞ trait was prominent.

It was the first time the attribute had been activated, so there must have been some that were more easily wielded.

not anymore

‘First of all, I’m pretty sure the man I was after was a devil worshiper. Which denomination are you from?’

Arrogance, lust, sloth… I still don’t know which church it is.

However, it would not be the jealous side that caused an incident and failed in less than half a year.

Not even the Fury side, which has only one admirer.

‘Seeing that he hides his demonic power, it seems to be either greed or gluttony.’

The power she shows on the outside is about D-class.

Even if you use the power of the devil that is hidden, it will stop at the level of going up one level from now.

Even if you hit a lot in C grade, you won’t be able to get past B grade. It’s not like the Invidia I defeated before.

As the number of people increased, the number of guards was more than twice that of yesterday.

Even if I don’t deal with it right now, if he tries to commit an incident, he will be stopped immediately.
