Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death - Falling in Love at the Academy Means Death chapter 124

Evangeles breathed heavily.

What should I call that gigantic thing?

It cannot be called a plant. Plants do not growl at their surroundings, exposing teeth that glisten with saliva.

Even so, there is a strange side to being called an animal. Animals do not anchor themselves by extending their legs below the ground. And it doesn’t even spread out that many branches.

“Chrrr!”

Numerous branches sprouted from the monster shot up into the sky as if it were a fireworks display. Before long, they slammed mercilessly toward the floor. As if it was another heavy rain mixed with the falling rain.

“Everyone, keep your eyes open!”

I had to keep my eyes open to avoid falling branches from the falling rain. First of all, you have to be able to see it so you can avoid it or counter it.

Papa baba bababat!

The four swords danced madly to avoid getting stuck in the branches. The branches that were pruned and avoided rose again and fell again. And it wasn’t just falling from above that they had to care about.

The reason the party was able to avoid that multi-faceted attack was because they had an advisor who could detect death.

“Evangeles! Left foot!”

A thorny vine protruded from where Evangeles had stepped out. Before the vine sprang tall, he cut it off with his sword.

Everyone wished they had three more hands. The body of Sabaki, who had been fighting with internal injuries in the first place, was getting more and more scars, and Adrine’s hand holding the rapier was slowly losing strength.

Only John knew about the enemy.

Chimera colonies. In the first battle of [Guardian Kirov] in the academy’s tomb, the last enemy to face after defeating all the monsters.

It was not easy to catch my breath. It was the same with John approaching his limit. The living creatures that emanated from the monsters that had become a colony had become more like complex mazes or skeins than smells with a direction.

No matter how much I thought about it, I felt sorry for only one person.

If there was a jackal in this place.

If there was a character with the role of a tanker who would persevere through the attack path while enduring the blows of the branch.

If so, it would be possible to pour another barrage of blows on that tree-shaped colony that had regenerated countless times.

Shu Shu Shu Shu Shuk-

The monsters that had become a colony also collected the branches they had extended as if they were arranging themselves. The endlessly repeated battles, for the first time in a long time, came to a lull.

“Huh-. Heo-eok-.”

John also felt the exhalation getting heavier and heavier. Both Sabaki and Adrine had been unable to hide their moaning for some time.

but one person.

As much as Evangeles, he was continuing the workshop without showing any signs of exhaustion.

It was the effect of the knight training he had received. Bondi knight class is not a class that teaches how to beat an opponent with instant wins. Its essence is a class that teaches how to fight longer while maintaining oneself in various crisis situations.

For example, a class to raise a seasoned soldier rather than a skilled swordsman. Numerous know-how from that class permeates each and every movement of Evangeles.

However, that was only possible because the remaining three people were holding on. When Sabaki started coughing up blood in succession, Johann decided he couldn’t put off the fight any longer.

“Evangeles. You have to deal with that.”

Evangeles, who was called, was still confused. His stamina was still intact, but fighting the strangeness caused by the magician still terrified him.

“… I?”

Evangeles’ voice was trembling. And John knew which words would most help to touch Evangeles’ heart.

It just refers to the family.

“I heard about it from your father.”

Of course, since I came to this world, I have never met Evangeles’ father. But the content is up to you to make up.

“You are a child who was naturally gifted with that secret talent.”

Maybe he had the most energy physically, but mentally he was the most precarious person. Evangeles looked resentfully into his old friend’s face like a man driven into a corner.

“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… .”

John stared at the sword in Evangeles’ hand. That sword is a sword that can fulfill its full potential only when held by the blood of the Hermes family.

“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. It was because the ground cracked and the protruding roots flew into Adrinne. Roots that were much thicker than the spearhead of the lance were added to the rotation and stretched out. It was an attack that could not be pared down with a rapier.

In the face of the inevitable attack, Adrin lowered her stance. Rafi’s blade erected and attached to the body. The point was to reduce the damage as much as possible. However, just when Adrine prepared for a shock, a scream came from behind her.

“aaap!”

It was Sabaki.

With desperate momentum, he jumped in front of Adrine. Before the root penetrated his body, his powerfully swung sword collided with the tip of the root with a roaring sound.

Kwa-ang-!

It was a blow that brought out all his strength. Sabaki’s technical sword succeeded in turning the trajectory of its roots. However, his body was pushed out by the force of the roots.

“nice… ugh… .”

Instead of hitting the back that hit the ground, Sabaki touched the belly that had been kicked by Bastia. The hemoptysis that gushed out mixed with the rainwater and flowed down in a dizzying fashion.

Adrinne hurriedly supported Sabaki and asked.

“it’s okay?”

“Fine… It is.”

And at that sight, John felt rather fortunate. His choice of bringing Adrin was right. The madness that Sabaki had seen was being controlled in front of her.

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

shoot ah-

Everyone’s body temperature was slowly dropping due to the rain. Evangeles through the rain

Evangeles looked through the pouring rain with trembling eyes. A tree-shaped monster with an embossed face like a monk.

The monster was hoarding twigs like whips, as if it were going to repeat its offensive pattern. John poses

“Trust us, Evangeles.”

“… .”

“And believe in yourself.”

Evangeles put both hands together and squeezed the handle of the sword to calm the quivering tip. Yohan looked at the system log floating above the sword.

[Elfin Sword]

[Rating: Legend]

[This sword is only allowed for bloodlines blessed by the fairy king ‘Obelon’. You can use the power of the elves.]

blah-

Like a tightly pulled rope, the hive’s massive body was bent over. In front of the colony’s attack that was about to begin, Evangeles took a step back. While spitting out blood, Sabaki, who got up with the help of Adrine, spoke in a cold voice.

“John.”

“why.”

“Should I trust that guy?”

Evangeles felt a moment of shame. It wasn’t because he was called ‘that guy’, but about himself that he couldn’t refute even if he was called that.

But his friend answered on his behalf.

“believe.”

It was as if there was no doubt about it.

“Only Evangeles can defeat that monster.”

It was the same lines the main character did in the original scenario. Evangeles’s mouth leaked with a ‘pop’ sound.

“I know that guy.”

It was a voice that even contained a little anger, as if doubting itself was an insult.

As if pushed by the voice, Evangeles’ foot moved another step.

this time to the front.

John was able to see the system logs he had been waiting for.

[Evangeles Hermes faces his trauma.]

[Evangeles Hermes reaches a turning point in growth.]

A friend who had been with him all his life was cheering him on. A long time ago, the guy who saved me when I was trapped in the wizard’s mansion.

John continued.

“Everyone, it only takes once… At the timing of that guy’s attack, we’ll attack all at once.”

“Are you attacking?”

“Protect Evangeles at all costs. If you can’t block it with a knife, even if you block it with your body. Then Evangeles will take him down.”

The returned Sabaki’s words were still cold.

“Why should I listen to that?”

“Please do so, Sabaki.”

Sabaki was a little surprised by Adrine’s confident expression.

“You can trust him now.”

These were the words of a woman who said she would ‘become a knife’ herself. Sabaki thought it was no longer necessary to question whether John was right or wrong.

“Okay-”

sigh-

Before Sabiki could finish his words, the Hive’s branches rose into the sky.

“Run!”

First, John ran out, followed by Sabaki and Adrinne. And finally, Evangeles, who raised his sword at eye level, ran out.

The distance to the monster is about 20 meters.

Evangeles suppressed the feeling of wanting to turn around and run away at any moment, reflecting on himself.

‘I’m not alone.’

As if he had overheard Evangeles’ thoughts, the single Sabaki jumped up first. He cut off the first stem that fell, then swung his sword to cut off the stems that fell one after another.

Parba Baba-Bat.

It was a truly dazzling sword. Perhaps among us, a swordsman with the most excellent swordsmanship.

At first, the thorny tone was a little annoying, but I could see why John had bothered to accompany him.

The original way of speaking is not proportional to swordsmanship skills.

Tadadadak!

The stems that fell afterwards were not intended to stab the party in the first place. They were stuck side by side in front of the running party like the bars of a prison.

The intention was obvious. John, who did not want to break Evangeles’ posture as he was running, gave a great shout.

“aaa!”

The drawn sword swung in full swing. It was the sword with the most outstanding cutting power in this world view.

once to the left.

And right once.

With two cuts, a space was created between the top and bottom of the drooping stem. And two people who jumped into the space entered.

It was Evangeles and Adrine.

‘John believes in me.’

The distance to the monster is now 10 meters.

Cheek-.

At close range, the colony straightened out two stalks. It was an attack that was easy to recognize compared to an attack that fell from the sky, but the speed was fierce.

In response, Adrin, who is used to ‘stabbing attacks’, shouted.

“Run as it is!”

Originally, an attack aimed at Adrine and Evangeles respectively. It is next to impossible to block a stem that has grown almost simultaneously with a single knife.

But her specialty made the impossible possible.

A skill that he once demonstrated to his swordsmanship teacher, Yuli, but failed.

It was a wrap.

More advanced through combat experience so far.

Che- Cheng-

A rapier with lightning speed cut down two stems.

Her sword does not have the strength of Sabaki or the cutting power of Yohan. However, Adrinne’s rapier, which entered at that precise angle, was thrown away after changing the direction of the shooting stem.

And that was enough.

5 meters.

It was a street where you could see the features of that tree-shaped monster.

and the next moment. John witnesses what he has been waiting for so long.

The secret secret of the Hermes family that the main character finally showed at this desperate moment.
