Julio was hiding in the woods.

With the threads tightly spread around the base, I quietly hold my breath in a place where I can control and monitor all of them.

That’s why he could clearly feel Ergé wandering around while cutting the thread.

‘He cuts well.’

He had an intuition that the person cutting the thread and walking around was neither Xi’an nor Yu Seol, but a 300th-ranked student.

You can’t see it, but you know it by movement. Xian said that Aman would take care of it himself, and the wizard does not approach him by cutting each one like this.

So it was a bit surprising.

Cheonryunsa is not just a thread. It is a thread that is not easy to even remove, let alone cut, without a fair amount of skill.

Ergé roams the forest, cleaning it up like a spider’s web.

It was very surprising that the guy who was said to be the last among the first graders was at this level.

‘It doesn’t matter.’

It’s surprising, but not particularly threatening.

The guy is wandering around in a forest full of traps without even guessing where he is.

If you get caught in one suitable trap, you can neutralize it right away.

‘Now!’

And soon after, the guy stepped into one of the traps.

Julio pulled the thread with a hearty laugh. He only lifted a finger, but by now the trap would have trapped the cocoon tied tightly.

‘That’s why I have to be careful when entering the enemy camp.’

Giulio smiled happily and headed for the place where Erze would be tied up.

However, what he found there was not Erze.

“uh?”

A rolled up cloak filled with tree branches moderately. It was the cloak that was tied to the thread.

Julio took a step back.

At that moment, he felt goosebumps running down his spine.

“Kuk!”

Julio turned around. He could see the rain flying in a straight line towards him.

He hurriedly spun a few threads and caught Bido.

But at that moment, there were two more raincoats flying towards him.

Ridiculously, there must have been only one opponent, but Bido flew from both the right and left sides.

“damn!”

Giulio manipulated the thread to remove the continuously flying rain. At the same time, I searched for Ergé’s location.

But I didn’t even guess. Normally, you would think that there would be a guy in the direction where Bido flew. But the rain continued to come from another direction.

‘Where is it!?’

In an instant, the positions of the two were reversed.

Obviously, at first, Erze was looking for Julio, who was hiding, but now, on the contrary, Julio was looking for Hergé, who was hiding.

However, if there was a difference between the two, it was that Ergé searched for Julio with a solid clue, but Julio couldn’t find a single strand of Ergé’s hair.

‘There is no answer to this.’

Julio made a quick decision. It is clearly at a disadvantage.

The opponent has not yet launched an attack that is only a check, but it is only a matter of time before they move in earnest.

First you have to hide. With that thought in mind, he opened the Cheonryunsa.

[ Gangsa (强絲) – Cloud Rock ]

A string hardened like iron, filled with mana, stretched around Julio. It became the hardest sphere and embraced Julio.

For now, I plan to thoroughly defend myself and then look for opportunities for a counterattack.

however.

―f*ck!

Before the sphere was even completed, Julio hurriedly raised his head at the sound he heard overhead.

I could see that Erze had inserted a short sword into the center of the sphere.

“When the hell!”

When Julio was astonished at the fact that he hadn’t felt a single sign until he approached and stabbed his sword like this.

Herze, who had cut the center and scattered all the threads, fell down and drew his sword.

Julio reflexively lifted the thread to block it, but he had already used all the thread he could move to make the cloud rock.

All that was left of him was a thread or two.

Of course, it couldn’t stop Ergé’s sword.

-Suddenly.

Ergé’s shortsword cut off Julio’s clothes and markings.

it was a dropout

“how… … He’s not even Xian, he’s this guy… … .”

Herze stood up on top of Julio, who was distorting his face.

There was no joy of victory on her face. I just calmly thought that I had finished my work.

She lifted her head and looked towards the red pillar.

―Quaguaguagwang! Clumsy!

In the place where Damian and Yuseol were, a roar and vibration continued to resonate from a while ago.

I have to go to help Yu Seol.

Herzeh hid herself within the black line again, holding the shortsword in her bosom.

* * *

The broken blade of Aman spun around and got stuck in the dirt.

Xian standing in front of him. And in front of Xian, Aman, his eyes wide open, was staring at the broken sword in disbelief.

“I… … lost?”

I thought I could do something classic. Isn’t he the son of the famous Sword King? There were rumors that he was crazy, but apart from that, I thought his skills would be certain.

So I thought it would take some time.

I never thought that I would lose.

‘But I lost.’

It’s not like the sword that the sewage extended was coincidentally hit by chance or something like that.

He was defeated squarely and squarely with his skills without any variables.

Xian’s aura of night overpowered his own sunlight aura, and on the contrary, his own aura could not pierce Xian’s.

How could this be?

He is said to be the son of the King of Swords, but in the end, he is a child who has just left the territory and started life in the academy.

It’s only been half a year since he left home. Until then, it was a flower in a greenhouse that had only been trained in a safe territory.

On the contrary, it has been three years since he stepped out of the greenhouse called his family and stepped into the wild.

I thought this gap in experience was a gap that couldn’t be filled with clumsy skills.

He looked at Xi’an.

“… … .”

However, in Xian’s eyes, all interest in him had already disappeared.

In terms of sympathizing with Damien’s thoughts, he is not particularly attracted to him as a human being. I just checked the ability of the Academy No. 1, which I was interested in.

He had no reason to be interested in Aman.

‘I must go.’

how would it be over there

Xian turned his back on Aman and headed towards the place where he could see the red pillar.

Aman felt very humiliated at the sight of him not saying a word, but there was nothing he could do. All I could do was grit my teeth and let go of the resentment of defeat.

Sian broke through the bushes and headed to the place where Damian and Yuseol were fighting.

Even at this moment, there was a continuous roar.

It meant that great magic was colliding.

Sure enough, at the place we arrived, Damian and Yoo Seol were fiercely clashing.

When Damian swung a staff with a large jewel on it, dozens of magic circles spread out in the air and exploded in a flash of light.

Dozens of explosions melted and destroyed all the icy rain of snow.

The magic of rumors couldn’t break through Damian, but Damian didn’t look comfortable either.

Uncharacteristic of him, he was sweating profusely, and his hair, which had been set like a knife, was disheveled.

There was no space in the face either.

“draft?”

And seeing Xian who arrived, he opened his eyes wide.

“Did you come after defeating Ahman?”

“yes.”

Xian nodded. Damian swallowed a groan.

He, too, never dreamed that Aman would lose to Xian.

He was aware that Xi’an’s skills were stronger than he thought, but he did not think that it would exceed Aman’s.

That’s why he gladly listened to Aman’s words that he would go to face Xian alone.

And that wasn’t all.

– Pasrak.

Erze, wearing Kelhazard’s mantle and holding out a shortsword, appeared from behind, deliberately groaning.

It means that even Julio was defeated.

Yuseol and Cyan in front of you, and Ergé in the back.

Completely surrounded, Damian sighed and let go of his staff.

Tung, Turrr—

“lost. don’t give up.”

He raised a red flag and threw it at Xian. Xian caught the flying flag.

“It is bittersweet. I never thought that all three of them would lose.”

Somehow, it became more like an individual match instead of a team match, but I didn’t expect that this team would all lose.

Damian himself was tied with Yoo Seol, but Damian accepted that being equal was a defeat.

As a senior, drawing with a junior was tantamount to defeat.

“Losing is bitter. But I was really surprised by your skills. This is really, I look forward to the later.”

Damian patted Xian on the shoulder and passed by.

Seeing him leave, Xian frowned.

Are you looking forward to the future? what the hell

‘As expected, there is something.’

Feeling uncomfortable again before the match, Xian put the flag in his bosom.

after some time has passed.

The other two teams were also organized, and the tournament was over.

* * *

The game is over. Contrary to everyone’s expectations, the winner was a team made up of only freshmen. The team that Xian, Yuseol, and Erze belonged to.

“The first graders won?”

“Did you beat Aman?”

In particular, everyone was astonished at Xian, who single-handedly defeated Aman Balzac.

The freshmen didn’t know much, but to the seniors, Aman Balzac’s name was synonymous with Choi Kang.

A student who has never missed 1st place in 3 years.

However, I never thought that I would be defeated by such a crushing blow against a freshman who entered the school half a year ago.

Even the fact that a student in 300th place, whom he thought would only catch his ankle, caught Julio, who was in 6th place in his second year, was enough to become a topic of conversation.

“Cyan Agrid, Youseol, Hergé. The three students come up to the podium.”

President Zerech personally summoned the three to present the plaque.

He patted Xian’s shoulder and grinned.

“You are also trustworthy. It was no accident that I found Pamela.”

Inaudible to the others, he spoke to Xian.

Pamela Drake. Come to think of it, how is her search going?

Since he was caught as a spy because of himself, he must have a grudge, big or small. Moreover, the demon who protects her is the Demon Dragon King.

Xian had no choice but to be concerned in many ways.

Seeing as if he had read Xian’s curiosity, Zerech looked at Xian and the other two and talked.

“Since I won, I should get a prize. come with me I will direct you to my own remarks.”

After leaving the other instructors to organize the tournament, Zerech took the three of them to the basement of the academy.

And arrived in the basement of the main building, Academy Vigoan.

Even within it, the door to a deeper place was opened directly by the president’s hand.

Sensing the presence of an S-class artifact emanating more than any other treasure, Xian’s eyes lit up.

Primitive magic somewhere in here. Of course you can’t have that.

‘Wouldn’t it be possible to see it if I look closely?’

Rather than the artifact that was said to be given as a prize, it was a draft that focused more on that side.
