An Angel Lives in the Academy - An Angel Lives in the Academy chapter 207

Episode 207: Angels Spreading Wings (2)

“The only way to end the nightmare.”

The referee’s murmur melted away in the darkness.

“Yeah, this is the only way. The end of everything in this world.”

And in the dark, there was a being who affirmed that word. It was the master of this deep darkness, the Demon King.

The boy king who judges the world on a perishing world, the demon king, smiled at his only kin and continued.

“I have a wound that will never heal. and.”

The Demon King stroked the referee’s cheeks that had tears in them.

“I have nightmares that will never happen.”

he said

“Those who do not understand often speak easily. Wounds can be healed, and from a nightmare, just wake up. It’s all a matter of will.”

The Demon King looked down at the city. To be honest, I was very curious. What kind of expression is that young dragon looking at the referee?

What kind of expression is he looking at the referee who has lost his bright sunlight-like blonde hair and has turned black, and his hands are full of Hong-wol’s blood?

Yumari, Yumari felt sorry for her.

The only arm he had left was facing the referee, trying to catch something he couldn’t catch, so he cut through the air.

With a sad expression on her face, the girl bit her lip.

But the girl still did not give up.

“The idiots who say that have never seen the real darkness.”

The Demon King shook his head a few times as if he was getting tired of it, then quietly went to the referee and whispered dark words.

“He had this nightmare.”

Although he had only uttered a single word or a few syllables, the referee learned of the nightmare of Marie as a child.

A child who loses everything in the overwhelming violence of the world, a child who trembles in loneliness, a child who suffers from unthinkable pain. A child who sleeps because no one can save him.

It was a terrible nightmare.

Probably forever, until the day I die, I won’t be able to get out of that nightmare.

So the referee, no, the referee’s darkness made a decision.

“Come on, referee. Did I tell you before? It’s time to put an end to that child’s nightmare.”

The referee did not answer. Without a word, he just took out his dagger, Flavellum. The demon king saw it and said.

“I’m sorry. I wanted to finish that ignorant dragon with my own hands.”

But there was no expression of regret at all. The Demon King was making such an expression as if a child was looking forward to the movie just before the popular hero movie started.

But no one saw that expression. Because everyone was looking at something different.

It’s a battle between a dragon and an angel.

It was, of course, the referee who opened the first match.

The referee, who naturally fell to the ground because there were no wings, used the reaction of flame magic to twist the orbit smoothly and aim for Marie’s blind spot.

But Marie’s blind spot was not easily seen.

So eventually it gets to the ground and only the referee.

However, Marie still kept her distance, opening and closing her mouth with a sad expression on her face.

Concrete buildings sparsely remaining among the buildings that collapsed under pressure. The referee naturally hid himself among those buildings and again aimed at Marie’s blind spot.

Is it because my emotions are shaking?

The referee could see Marie’s blind spot this time.

The referee rushes forward without hesitation. As such, the referee had no choice but to hit the ball with the floor while one arm was suppressed by Marie’s joint.

“The referee.”

Marie, who fought on an equal footing with the Demon King. Of course, the blind spot Marie showed was a trap.

However, the referee, who fell into the trap, just looked up at Marie with an expressionless expression, as if wearing a mask, as if this was okay.

“Now I know.”

What the hell do you know? The referee was a little skeptical of what he meant, but that didn’t stop the fight.

Since it was a ground played with only one arm, the dark referee could easily get out of Marie’s side just by scattering darkness.

The referee’s darkness, who thought that there would be no chance of winning in super close combat, began to accumulate thick darkness in his Flavel Room.

Flabellum, which was a white dagger, turned into a dark long sword and began to aim at Marie.

And the sword strike that did not leave a sound cut off Marie’s hair a little. The referee decided to put Mari to sleep by scattering sword attacks.

If you go to a long-distance battle, the attack will be read by Karma, and if you go to a short-range battle, only the same situation as before will appear.

Then it was the referee who thought that the middle range was too fast to read and too far to deal with. No, it was something that was moving the referee’s body now, but not the referee.

what to say about that

Should I call it the referee’s darkness?

However, as if the sword strikes of the darkness were like a breeze, Marie avoided it by barely moving her body little by little. It’s not even moving forward one step at a time.

“The referee, the referee already knows.”

From noblemtl.net

Not. The referee knew nothing.

From noblemtl.net

Now the referee was just sleeping.

However, Yumari did not give up and looked at the referee again.

An incredibly beautiful boy. With that kind of beauty, it’s not human and I’d be a little reluctant, but she was more human than anyone else because she always smiled like a fool and stretched out her hand with warmth.

The girl still remembered the touch.

“Why didn’t the referee take revenge on this world?”

There was no answer from the boy.

The boy just continued to shoot swords. The building behind Marie was cut like tofu.

“Why did the referee keep trying to protect this world?”

The blackened referee didn’t answer.

However, the sword strike was a little shaky and cut through the air next to Marie.

Eventually, the referee opened his mouth.

“I am not a referee.”

The blackened referee spoke in a cold voice he had never heard before.

“I am the referee’s darkness, the referee you are looking for is sleeping under the sofa, sniffling.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“Are you Yumari? I know you.”

said the referee.

“The child the referee saved, so the child the referee felt most sorry for.”

“yes?”

“The referee is so sorry for letting you live in a nightmare. So I’ll put an end to this nightmare for him.”

Suddenly, Yumari was standing in front of the referee.

“Anyway, no one can wake the referee from this nightmare.”

And the referee drew his sword once more. The sword strike was so huge that it reached the center of the city in the distance beyond Marie.

red solid line-

In the end, Marie cut her thigh in the darkened Flavel Room.

“You can pretend to be happy. You can pretend it’s okay. However.”

“… I know. When you have to sleep alone.”

You can’t lie at that time.

Yumari knew that fact better than anyone.

The referee’s attack continues and continues. Marie continued to block the attack, squeezing out a single word.

“But there is a way to wake up from the nightmare.”

The referee, and a short breath saying his name. Even though the referee lost his expression in the dark, he finally shed tears at the sound of the girl he wanted to protect.

“… There is no way.”

The referee’s darkness said.

The referee was still asleep inside himself, under the sofa, where nobody was and only blood was flowing, with his eyes closed as if neither light nor darkness meant anything, enduring the whistle.

From noblemtl.net

No one could wake this child up.

From noblemtl.net

No one.

However, the demon king did not have the same dark confidence in Yumari’s words.

If you look at the miracles Yumari has shown so far… … .

“It’s not a miracle.”

From noblemtl.net

No, good luck. There may be other ways of doing such trips. The Demon King was not broad enough to allow such a possibility.

“It doesn’t matter what you do. I finished everything while the referee gave me time.”

Erasing a world was not the only way to destroy the sky. The most basic way to destroy a world.

That’s what makes the earth go out.

“Look, you stupid dragon. No matter what you do, you cannot change the future of this world.”

And the city disappeared into the depths of the abyss. And seeing the city disappearing leaving behind white smoke, the Demon King smiled again.

And when he saw the things that had disappeared with the city, he grimaced again.

* * *

turn off the ground. A demon king’s skill that summons an abyss beneath the earth and plunges the earth into eternal darkness.

Humans also called the abyss Tartarus or Hell, and said that there was no escape from it unless it was a winged angel.

People fell into the abyss like that.

“The child the referee wanted to protect must have run away.”

It will be. No matter how much you fight for people, no one will go to hell for people you see for the first time today.

The child would have left.

“Somehow, I couldn’t even run away.”

It doesn’t matter though.

The girl must have finally stopped acting stupid. Thinking like that, the referee’s darkness smiled bitterly.

After all, that child is also a child living in a nightmare, either he would run away and make the world a hell as if he couldn’t be the only one who could suffer like this, or he would take away everything around him saying that he would forget the nightmare with pleasure.

That said, the darkness of childhood will stick out its head during the time I am left alone.

Or maybe he would move to finish everything like himself. It wasn’t bad either. Marie is a good boy, just like the boy who slept inside him.

Darkness just wanted the child’s nightmare to end.

uh-huh-

A child’s cry was heard from afar. Could it be that the boy under the sofa finally couldn’t hold back his tears and started crying because he was tired of nightmares?

From noblemtl.net

Nope, it’s just the beginning of a new nightmare.

A child is crying in loneliness.

Darkness heard the cry and slowly closed its eyes.

From noblemtl.net

Now, now it will all be over.

So please wait a little longer.

But something strange happened.

Isn’t the sound of weeping fading little by little?

“It can’t be.”

The darkness looked at the child crying.

Thousands of people gathered where the child was crying.

People who are terrified, hold their breath, and pray in vain. But the people were protecting the child.

Why do people protect their children even though they know that hell will unfold in the future?

The referee didn’t want to close his eyes until he knew why.

In the middle of the crowd, the referee could see a girl holding a baby. A girl holding a baby with only one arm left, not knowing how to hold a child.

The girl really looked like someone.

With someone in the referee’s memory.

“I, I know this sight.”

In an instant, the girl turned into a dragon that gave birth to a baby, and the baby had cute horns.

‘Look, angel. A child is so… … .’

For a moment, the girl seemed to have shiny brown hair and was hugging the referee warmly. And the woman reached out under the sofa and caressed the shoulder of the trembling child.

“Come on, darling. It’s time to wake up.” He said and wrapped his arms around the boy’s back. As she gently wiped her back, the child looked at her mother’s face and smiled.

“I had a terrifying, terrifying nightmare.”

The child was relieved and fell asleep again.

And the referee got up.

The referee could finally understand why Marie was fighting and trying to protect people even when she was hurt so much.

Because Marie had faith.

“… Yes, I.”

And the referee knew about faith.

Because he has always lived in miracles.

“I believed… … .”

From the beginning, the referee believed in this fact. As if there were already wings behind the referee’s back.

But only if you have faith that you can fly, you will be able to spread your wings.

“I knew someone was going to soothe a child who had nightmares… … .”

wings spread out. Tens of thousands more nights since the last angel came down. The heartless night that had turned people’s prayers in vain during those long years gave a new light of salvation.
