Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death - Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death chapter 123

A person’s height is innate.

And being short is a disadvantage in fighting. The amount of force, speed, and reach that rotation can deliver in all cases.

Moreover, this has a greater impact in the fight of momentum. Running down the hill, Sabaki ran towards the gigantic human figure, which could have been 2m 50cm tall, briefly recalling the past.

There was a time like that.

Days when I camouflaged my own size in order not to be eaten by the size of the enemies I constantly collided with.

The days when I forcibly spread my shoulders and purposely set my toes to inflate my size.

And when he let go of that bloat, he became a swordsman of Gureungnarae, recognized by his master.

‘I am small.’

It wasn’t unfair, and it wasn’t self-torture. It was a calm acknowledgment of his own physical condition. The basis of the fight is not to inflate yourself, but to admit and push yourself.

And because it’s small, there are things you can do. From a height of 2m 50cm, when the monster’s heavy fist fell, he broke through downward instead of slowing down.

low.

lower.

The monster’s fist passed over Sabaki’s head, who was almost stuck to the ground and rushed to him. There was a dizzying sound of ‘buung’, and the wind pressure made his long hair rise.

However.

If it doesn’t hit, it’s meaningless no matter how much power the attack has.

Sabaki, who passed the monster’s fist without taking any damage, drew his own wooden sword. Perhaps it should be called a wooden block rather than a wooden sword.

It was the base of the sword that Bastia had destroyed earlier with [Weapon Breaker] and remained. However, the moment his strong energy passed through the wooden sword, it became a sword with black energy.

Chesak-

The black aura drew a wide semicircle. Cutting off both legs of the monster in front of you.

“Quaaagh!”

In terms of people, it was the position corresponding to the shin. The lower part of the leg was severed, and the opponent fell with a thud. while maintaining balance.

And Sabaki was not vigilant. It was like standing on the ground with a cut in the shin, as if performing tricks, but if you can stand, you are still an enemy. Anyway, thinking that the opponent’s height was moderately low, Sabaki kicked off the ground this time and jumped up.

1 type of ghost sword, incision sword.

A deadly herbivore that makes the opponent unable to guess the price point.

If the opponent is a human, the fight ends with a blow to the head. However, there was something special about the monster he faced.

it has two heads

One in the middle of the shoulder and one on the right shoulder.

The head in the middle of the shoulders seemed to be the center of thought. But it was the head on the right side of his head that was screaming. Perhaps these two heads did not even know that they were dividing their functions. Because the head with its mouth open and the head with its eyes open are different.

For a moment, he wondered which one was the thinking head, but Sabaki quickly discarded that concern.

It didn’t matter.

Because it’s an unknown enemy anyway.

He hit the head in the center with both eyes open. The head that had been hit by Sabaki’s machine sword exploded with a thump. And there was no way to confirm if that was enough. It was because Adrine’s rapier, which ran after her, pierced the open mouth of the other head.

Psak-!

Her sword burst through the back of the monster’s head. The monster’s body slowly leaned against the attacks of the two men and women.

thud.

Almost at the same time as the monster fell, Sabaki and Adrinne, who jumped up, also landed on the floor. Their gazes crossed for a moment. The bloody faces of the man and woman were quickly washed away by the falling rain.

“Why did you stab your head?”

“I hate hearing screams. What about Mr. Sabaki?”

“I don’t like the color of your eyes.”

The two smiled faintly. It wasn’t a situation to have a long chat anyway.

A scene that seemed to have been taken from a scene from Hell was unfolding around them. These monsters were fighting, killing, and eating each other. Adrinne, who quickly looked at the situation, said.

“This, if left alone, will self-destruct?”

“Wrong.”

The last words were those of John. Using his eight arms, he kicked the monster that was crawling like a spider into the air, then slashed it open with his sword. Then he quickly added words.

“If left alone, these guys will either eat each other or insert themselves into themselves, making them stronger. We must kill them before that happens.”

Immediately, the monster jumped on one leg and threw itself at the body of the monster that John had cut down. And the monster began to devour voraciously, blood smearing its face. And it was Evangeles who ran in with a pale face to cut down the monster.

“… You mean like this? … Woo-wook!”

Evangeles bent over and vomited violently. John patted Evangeles on the back and said.

“Two of them and two of this. Let’s split up and fight each other. It will be safer to fight in tandem as you just did, rather than fighting alone.”

“What are you talking about? Adrine is in a safe place-”

“no. Don’t do that. That’s not respecting me, it’s ignoring me, Mr. Sabaki.”

“… Is that so.”

“Adrine! Bow down!”

Johann quickly released the bow behind his back, and then almost non-stop engaged the arrow and drew the string. The arrow that flew with a whooshing sound passed over Adrine’s head as she quickly bent over. Then, flapping its wings next to its ears, it pierced the forehead of the approaching monster.

iron puck.

The monster’s head, which had been flying grotesquely, plunged headlong into the mud.

Sabaki said while looking at the head of the monster hit by John’s bow.

“You have a deep knowledge of the bow.”

“I come from a hunting family.”

“Okay, I’ll take the big guys. You meet the smallfish.”

This was not about strength, but about efficiency. Johann nodded, and Savaki looked around for the next opponent.

“I will assist!”

Adrine is also someone who has mastered the sword.

It was immediately apparent how severely trained Sabaki was. He volunteered to assist him, not because standing in the front was dangerous, but because it was more efficient.

“Then be careful.”

As the southern swordsman ran out, the imperial princess ran after him again.

as if it were his shadow.

***

Arien was embarrassed. About the commotion going on in the Wizard’s Tower.

It was the moment when I could feel the words ‘magicians are individualists’. A wizard with eyes on his forehead and a wizard holding a telescope say, ‘That’s undead.’, ‘No. That’s a Chimera.’

Adrin hesitated and approached her three-eyed mentor. The eyes on the teacher’s forehead were directed at Arien, but the other two eyes were still on the arguing opponent.

“hey. There’s a tomb over there. Just looking at it, it’s undead. Does adding a corpse to a corpse make it not a corpse?”

“They eat each other and grow. If growth is not a characteristic of living things, what is it?”

“dog sound. Then, if you command your dolls to ‘put flowers in their hair’, and actually do that, the dolls will also grow up, would you say they are living things? That’s just taking another corpse and attaching it to yourself.”

“Are you senile? I can not see? They are magnetizing something that is not their body right now.”

“Do ghouls eat corpses too?”

“under… I really can’t speak I don’t know why you are crying today.”

“Then why are you standing there like a puppy hungry for poop?”

The last words were to Arien. Arien asked her teacher politely.

“Can I stay like this?”

“Is it like this?”

“I… Can I leave things alone?”

The master turned his head to look at Arien with three eyes, then tilted his head.

“What if I don’t leave you alone?”

“that… You have to dry it or block it. before anyone gets hurt.”

“why? It’s not something I did.”

Arien was speechless for a moment, but quickly recovered.

“But it happened at the academy.”

“If they can’t handle it, they will formally request it. You haven’t received a request yet, have you?”

“… .”

“Oh right. Why did you scream before? Is it like practice for deafening?”

“… I have something to say to someone outside the tower.”

“Hmm. If there is something to shout about in the future, warn the people here in advance and shout. Old people get heart attacks if they startle them.”

Then his teacher continued the strange argument. Adrine sighed, then closed her eyes and focused on the sounds coming from the tomb.

Her keen hearing kept her aware of the outcome of the fighting behind her back. The number of monsters continued to dwindle, and John was constantly repeating instructions and encouragement to his friend. The only thing I was worried about was a monster with a particularly strong heartbeat.

The sound of that monster’s heart had become so strange that it was difficult to describe the sound of a single heart.

And when all the monsters finally fell and only that monster remained, Arien became the voice of John.

“It’s a colony… .”

It was a word with no meaning. However, he could grasp that there was something special about the monster.

A terrifying impact sound was directed at the monster. However, in the damaged parts of the monster, something new was born again. As if you are healing yourself. ‘What kind of harmony is this?’ followed by a bleak voice and a woman’s voice saying, “The blade doesn’t work.” And after a while, John’s voice continued.

“Evangeles. You have to deal with that.”

“… I?”

“I heard from your father. You are a child who is naturally gifted with the talent of secret magic.”

Then John spoke in a voice full of trust.

“You can do it, Evangeles. There was no need to be afraid of the trivial oddities caused by magicians. Because you are the eldest son of a family that can cause even greater miracles.”

“Yeah, but… That monster… .”

“Your family is a family that has inherited the blessings of the Fairy King who nurtured the World Tree… You are the one who can shine the brightest of that blessing.”

John’s words paused again. The ground split open and someone was thrown out. Then John cried out.

“Go without fear, Evangeles. We will take responsibility and cover.”

After a while, Arien encountered a sound she had never heard before. It was a truly strange sound that could not be made with a sword, nor with a bow or spear.
