How to Survive at the Academy - How to Survive at the Academy chapter 233

Velbrok Subjugation (1)

The cheers of the crowd as they looked up at the firecrackers beautifully embroidered the sky turned into screams in an instant.

– ‘Ahhh!’

– ‘What is that! Also, run away! You must run away!’

Tanya, who stood on the podium in the student square and watched the fireworks with the crowd, also had to tremble at the sight in front of her.

Above the Sylvania Academy.

Through the clouds, the shape that was leisurely revealed under the light of firecrackers was the head of a giant dragon.

The fireworks of the festival filled the sky, and the moment when everyone was laughing and shouting for peace was only a minute ago.

In just one minute, the dragon appeared to announce the end of the world and was about to roar.

I know the name of the great disaster that blows away even this huge island.

Sung Chang-ryong Velbroque.

＜ Failed Sword Castle of Sylvania > The final boss.

According to the truth, it is a disaster that appears in the summer of the year that the main character, Taylor McLaure, is graduating and tries to destroy Sylvania.

– ‘Hey! aah! monster! It’s a monster!’

– ‘Everyone run away!’

– ‘My son! Bell line! Where did you go?! my son! Find my son!’

– ‘Everyone, get out of the way! Vicky!’

– ‘Maxes Bridge! Run to Maxes Bridge right now! There’s only one way to get out of this island the fastest!’

– ‘aah! foot! My feet!’

The student square, which quickly became a mess, is filled with screaming and running crowds.

In the crucible of chaos, I was mingled with the fleeing crowd and looked up at the sky silently.

First of all, it was disappointing.

Fortunately, I was able to calm down because it was not at all unexpected.

Glaskan subjugation, Glast subjugation, Lucy subjugation, Crepin subjugation…

Nothing ever went as expected. I didn’t even think that Bellbroque would show up just on time, as if he had promised.

So, when I had time, I stimulated and raised Taylor quickly, and even if I had some spare time left, my magic ability was overkill.

Even so… Anyway…

“Ed!”

A familiar voice was heard from among the crowd.

It was Yenika, who led her parents and ran out with the crowd. Jenica was also watching the final stage with her parents in the Student Square.

Orte and Seyla, who were running after Jenica, saw me and cried.

“Master Ed! You must run now! In the sky… in the sky…”

“Ed.”

However, Yenika, who cut off Orte’s words, spoke in a more calm voice.

“Sung Chang-ryong that Ed spoke of…”

“Yeah… it’s a lot faster than I expected… but that’s him.”

Yenika’s expression hardened, unable to finish her words.

I took a deep breath and spoke to Yenika.

“Evacuate your parents. If I ran to Maxes Bridge right now, there would be a crowd and I wouldn’t be able to use the bridge properly.”

“That, that…”

“You are a very valuable manpower with the ability to evacuate people out of the island in the current situation that is confusing even if you pretend to be. How many flying spirits can you carry at one time?”

“If you summon the Lieutenant Wind Spirit… you can still move ten of them at once… but after a long flight with so many burns, you’re exhausted…”

“Then, evacuate the important people from the island right away. Saving your parents isn’t going to be the most important thing.”

I checked all the gear I had right away, gathered only the main points as much as possible, and delivered it to Yenika.

it’s an emergency There was no time to hesitate.

– aa

The roar of Velbroque, which seemed to scratch the iron plate, covered the skies of Sylvania once.

Appearance among the flames of firecrackers.

However, his appearance— was strangely different from the Velbrok I knew.

The chain is wrapped around.

Huge magical chains wrapped around the body, which only raised the upper body from the sea, are trying to drag Velbroque down into the sea again.

The seal was not completely released.

Is it because it’s too early? Or are there other external variables?

Unlike the Velbroque in my memory that completely broke the seal, that Velbroque is still fighting the seal.

Velbrok’s roar was more like a scream to break the chains of the seal, rather than the result of his frenzy.

It has not yet been fully resurrected.

The crowd in the square is all blown away by the sound of a roar.

A roar filled with magical power has its own physical power. Still, the farther the distance, the less influential it will be.

However, even though it was the roar that appeared from the head of Velbrok, who fell in the distant sky, it was producing enough power to cut people down. Once again, he realized the unbelievable amount of magical power of Velbrok.

– ‘Ahhh’

– ‘Sa, save me…!’

Again the screams of the crowd were heard.

Yenika also looked up at me with a serious expression once again, supporting her parents.

“Ed?”

“First of all, Yenica, you told me to evacuate everyone you think is important. Think about evacuating your parents first.”

“Next is Ed.”

Yenika spoke casually.

Orte and Seyla looked at each other with their eyes wide open, but there was no time to respond to them.

“I…”

Holding the chains that are being sucked into the sea again, I look up at the roaring Bell Broke in the vast expanse of the sky.

“That, you have to stop it.”

He talked so naturally that even Yenika didn’t even think to react….

Come to think of it, people like me have always been like this. He often said nonsense.

And the same goes for Jenica. If she behaves like this, she’s the girl who’s always been swept away.

Yenika calmed her embarrassment at the sudden change of circumstances and slowly brought up the story.

“If I use that ring that Ed had… I can evacuate hundreds of people at once.”

A phoenix ring given to you by Professor Glast.

The power of the ring, which draws in the magic of the future and makes it usable right now, makes it possible for anyone, not just me, to wield an insane level of magic.

In particular, the greater the amount of magical power of the user, the more the power increases exponentially.

“If you summon the highest water spirit, Friede, you will be able to evacuate most of the outsiders on this island to the continent in just a few round trips. Then, at least, you can hit ‘run away’.”

The resurrection of Seongchang Dragon Velbrok is not a catastrophe that one individual can prevent.

So, the most sensible option… is to run away.

“But Ed wouldn’t think so.”

“Yeah, right.”

As if she was reading my mind, she tried to blow away the tension with a small smile.

“Ed… are you thinking of knocking that down?”

It may be considered too unrealistic.

Seongchangryong Velbrok is a monster of such a level that he can blow up his entire life with one kick.

Right now, he is unable to fully control his body due to the unsealed seal, but as soon as the chain is cut off, this Aken Island will be destroyed as it is.

In fact, when that happens, evacuation is meaningless.

At that level of disaster, there was no place in the entire empire that could be called a safe zone.

“okay. Ed. If I use the ring already, I can’t use it when it’s important, and I’m also incapable of fighting… There’s a good chance it’ll be a handshake. And, if you’re going to use this ring, the strongest person… Lucina Obel, principal, will use it for efficiency…”

“Master Ed. It is correct to evacuate from Bocchan Ed. Join us right now…”

“No, it’s fine. It’s probably your only chance to escape from the island. Escape with Yenika immediately.’”

I looked straight into Orte’s eyes and spoke clearly.

In the midst of the riotous crowd running, a few people patted their shoulders, but they didn’t care. They must have been crazy too.

“Master Ed..”

“Don’t say it twice. The situation is urgent and there is no time to convince them.”

When I declared that, it was Yenika who pulled Orte’s hand on the contrary.

“Dad, let’s go! It’s more annoying to waste time like this!”

Yenika, who pulled Seila and Orte tightly together, looked at me and spoke with a firm face.

“I will be back as soon as possible. Where is Ed going?”

What is the first move to take in the current emergency situation?

The answer was, in fact, clearly established.

“I’m going to find Taylor.”

I talked while gathering magic to summon Merylda.

The most important thing right now is to attract Taylor, who can give Sung Chang-ryong a final blow.

It is a disaster earlier than expected. Taylor’s specs have not yet fully matured.

It may not be very good for the final battle specifications, but I learned the dragon killing sword that can pierce Velbrok’s heart and the swordsmanship ceremony that can do some damage to Velbrok’s flesh.

It may not meet the sufficient conditions, but the minimum conditions are met.

As long as he attaches some other companions and gives him access to Velbrok’s heart… If he’s the current Taylor, he’ll be able to put in a final blow. That’s it.

If only I could kill Velbrok.

If only the terrible Sung Chang-ryong that covered the sky could do anything… All my journey would be over.

The end of all the journeys that started with being thrown into the forest, running, rolling, getting hurt, getting hurt, and standing up again… Finally, the end has come.

I clenched my teeth and continued to gather magic power.

“Ed, do you know where Taylor is?!”

First and foremost, take Taylor and place it in front of Velbrok’s heart.

In order to do that, we have to specify the location of Taylor first. Most of the students came to this student square to watch the closing ceremony, but…

“Probably, in the Trix building…!”

Before the closing ceremony began, Taylor’s lover, Isla, came to me and said:

Since I need to read the sage’s seal, he is planning to take advantage of this closing event to hide in the Trix Hall.

If she had even consulted me to implement the plan, she would have told her companion, Taylor. At any rate, if it was Taylor, she would have tried to help Isla’s plan.

With a high probability, Taylor would have headed to the Trix Pavilion to help Isla.

If you’re not in this student plaza… almost certainly…!

Before long, a giant wolf of the wind is summoned by my magic.

The noble figure of the high wind spirit Merylda was placed in the student plaza. Even outsiders who were running away saw the scene and all poked their tongues out.

Without needing to say anything, as Merylda bowed her head, I quickly jumped on her back.

*Maxeth Bridge, the only overland route out of the island, was blocked.

The news spread in an instant.

In fact, even for Lortel, who has the fastest source on Aken Island, the news flew right through.

From noblemtl.net

Maxess Bridge is a trading bridge built with the investment of Elte Trading Company and has a deep history.

As the investment entity is Elte Sanghoe, most of the merchants who set up stalls using the transportation route there belonged to Elte Sanghoe.

“Hae, thirty-one merchants at Maxes Bridge are either dead or missing. For now, I’m only delivering the parts that I quickly confirmed, and the number of deaths will be lower depending on the report of this, this, and later. It may increase… it may…”

“Don’t panic, Secretary Lienna. We are at the top. You have to be calm in any situation.”

Lortel Keheln, who was receiving a report from the staff at the Living Plaza, looked up at the sky.

Seongchangryong roars while wrapped in chains.

A few dozen minutes had passed since the terrifying scene was revealed.

The appearance of Velbrok trying to break free from the chains with a periodic roar filled with magical energy… As if to announce the end of the world.

If you are a human, it is right that you try to run away in fear.

It is a disaster that cannot be prevented by human strength alone.

However, Lortel is the owner of the composure that maintains reason in any situation.

By shed a drop of cold sweat and catch your breath, you keep your composure in this crazy situation.

Rather, thanks to Lortel’s sober look, even the employees who were about to be dragged into chaos were able to come to their senses.

“Any other report?”

Dozens of people died within the company. Even more than half of them are veteran merchants.

This alone is already a major accident. If it weren’t for a catastrophe like Velbrok, it was such a huge amount of damage that I might have to give up my position as the deputy director of Hoiju right away.

Still, Lortel was clear on priorities without panicking.

“Currently, the living dong side is in a state of disarray due to the residents of the living dong and outsiders who want to leave the island. In particular, the wharf side is said to be out of control because of the crowd.”

“That… you can tell just by looking at the current situation. Any other special moves?”

“There is a movement to settle the chaos around some factions. Since Emperor Chloel is at the royal residence, the imperial faction gathered around His Majesty is showing some organized movement.”

An informant from the imperial family ran up to him and reported to Lortel, bowing his head.

“I heard that on the faculty side, the student council president, Tanya Roth Taylor, is gathering people to sort out the chaos, and Princess Selaha is also controlling the people on the side of the professor building. Principal Obel and the faculty are also actively moving.”

“What about the living area?”

“It is said that Saint Clarisse is in the process of resolving the chaos, centering on the Telos Christians who were having a prayer meeting at the student church. Still, unless we find a way to escape from this Aken Island, the underlying chaos will not go away.”

Fortunately, inside Aken Island, there are many influential people who can hold onto the chaotic crowd and help them out.

Principal Obel Forsius in the Trix Building.

Emperor Chloel and Princess Fenia, centered on the royal residence.

Tanya Roth-Taylor, who formed a force centered on the Student Council at the Student Square.

And Princess Selaha, who was moving towards Gyoja-dong.

Saint Clarisse is gathering people around the student cathedral.

From noblemtl.net

Maid Jean Belle Maia, who gathers and protects Ophelis staff and distinguished students.

In addition to that, Lortel Keheln of the Elte Company, which has a strong grip on the living quarters.

A number of people inside Aken Island were organized around the leaders around them, and they succeeded in forming an order. Most of them were led by elders who belonged to a bachelor’s degree, or those who could assert their authority due to their high status.

However, the fundamental confusion has not been resolved, and the biggest problem, the absence of an escape route, shows no sign of being resolved.

We don’t know when Velbrok, who is struggling in the distant sky right now, will come out of the influence of the seal and destroy Aken Island.

What time is there to wait for the imperial side to pull the giant sailing boat?

Some of the coastline and cliffs are collapsing due to the scales that the Velbroque staggers and spews intermittently or struggles.

It is good to gather in each area and take a defensive stance and sit down. However, in the end, if we do not recover that Velbrok or escape from Aken Island, only catastrophe remains.

“How many people can escape the island on their own without using land?”

“Once you escape from the island with space magic, it is absurd because of the consumption of magic, and there are only ways to use a giant spirit or use flying magic. Some professors and students are possible…but they are so small that it is physically impossible to get out of this huge crowd…!”

“The imperial family gave orders to mobilize sailing ships to coastal cities. But… of course, I can’t make it on time…!”

Due to the nature of the Sylvania Academy, which rarely uses sea routes, the number of people who can go out by boat is only a few dozen people at a time.

In addition, if the crowds gathered at the wharf to get out of each other, it is safe to say that the sea route is in fact paralyzed.

external number.

This Aken Island has become a cemetery for those who wait for the advent of Velbrok without doing anything…

“I heard that you and Emperor Chloel are trying to figure out a way to get some of the distinguished guests out first..!”

The most important thing, after all, is the safety of the emperor.

The people on the side of the royal family will do their best to get the two princesses and Emperor Chloel off the island first.

However, Lortel Keheln is well aware of Emperor Chloel’s inclinations.

“Perhaps, if it were Emperor Chloel-sama’s personality… rather than rushing to escape right away, he would try to settle this chaos first.”

This is the last remaining weakness of the Holy Prince Chloel.

I don’t take good care of myself. Thinking of the national interest and the people, they are not taking care of their own well-being.

At first glance, it may be said that he is a saint who truly cares about the people, but…

Considering how important the position of the emperor is, it is not a very wise temperament.

No matter what anyone says, the emperor is the center of all. When such a person is injured or killed, the chaos becomes even more out of control.

Therefore, taking care of one’s own safety is directly related to taking care of the safety of the crowd. This fact should not be taken lightly, but Emperor Chloel, who has lived as a holy army, will somehow try to settle the confusion of the people.

Lortel frowned, adding speed to his gait.

What to do first?

You just have to set that priority. As the leader of the Elte Company, the judgment of every minute and second will change the lives of dozens of people.

“Can we use our boat…?”

“There are seven small merchant ships, but they are all occupied… It is not known whether they will be able to set off because of the crowds chasing ships at the pier.”

“…”

“okay. Then… we would rather gather people from the living quarters and join the royal family…”

– Coogong…! thud…!

– aa

That was when Lortel was trying to sort things out quickly.

Velbroque, who was struggling in the sky, roared once more.

A roar filled with magical power once again crosses the night sky and reverberates through the world as if it were tearing the eardrums apart.

He struggles to tear off the huge chains that surround his body one by one, but then his huge feet hit the living wing this time.

Bellbrok’s foot is stamped on the outside of the living quarters, leading to the west coast, and a shock as if the world is turned upside down.

– aa

In that way, half of the western coast is stamped out by Velbrok’s feet.

And… magic gathers around Velbrok’s lips. Dozens or hundreds of magic circles formed around his mouth, and an unbelievably huge amount of magic was sucked into the center like a black hole.

‘Dragon Breath’

It is a blow that boasts power comparable to that of any high-level magic, but from the standpoint of the Holy Chang Dragon, Velbroque, it is nothing more or less than just exhaling with magical power.

The result is a disaster.

If you are stuck in a crowd of people, at that point there will be hundreds of thousands of casualties.

Lortel held her breath as she looked at the scene.

This Aken Island… Because of the Crestor Festival, there are more people than ever before.

All of Velbrok’s blows are genocide. The catastrophe in which people die like a swarm of ants will begin from now on.

Looking at the magic circles gathered in the sky, Lortel thought.

This is really dangerous.

– aah!

That was when I thought about it.

There is a wizard who flew towards the sky. A girl who flew up from the top of the Trix Pavilion spreads her hand towards the monster in the sky while wearing a witch’s hat.

A huge amount of mana covers the skies of Sylvania to the extent that it is believed that it was human-derived.

Thousands of people on Aken Island witness it.

A rare genius in human history who is said to never be born again since Sylvania.

Lucy Meryl… stands in the firmament and looks up at Bellbroque.

The dull eyes are nowhere to be seen as usual. Rather, it looks quite serious.

Before long, Velbrok’s dragon breath flies towards the Sylvania Academy.

Lucy gasped for breath… and clenched Velbrok’s dragon’s breath with a clenched fist. In an instant, it felt as if all the light and sound of the world had disappeared.

A total of 81 layers of high-level defensive magic and 3 layers of top-level defensive magic were implemented at once, and it was a sight that any wizard could not help but look at with an absurd expression.

Not a human, but a huge mass of magic.

It was unbelievable that it came out of that dwarf body.

However, no matter how lucky I am, no matter how lucky I am, even if my opponent, Velbroque, is still in an unstable state because he has not yet completely escaped the influence of the seal…

As long as we are human, there are limits.

Lucy did her best to block Velbrok’s breath… I couldn’t even stop it completely.

Some of the deflected Velbrok’s magical energy fell all over Aken Island, causing a huge explosion.

Several buildings in the living quarters collapse, and the Gloct Hall in the student center in the faculty building collapses.

A fire broke out in the corner of the northern forest, and a landslide was pushed down by the impact of a part of the mountain on the right.

Lucy was buried in the middle of the student square, leaving behind a huge crater. Some students who had not yet evacuated were stunned at the sight.

Covered in dirt, Lucy Meryl… gets up and shakes her body. At some point, he picked up the witch hat that had fallen fluttering next to him and shook it off. Then, holding the hat tight, he looks up at the sky.

In the sky I looked up at, disaster was approaching.

* Seeing the official notice that came down under the direction of Obel Forsius, the faculty and staff of the Trix Hall rushed into the conference room with all the reports.

However, Obel Forsius, the chief academic officer, who had to put all of this in order, was not present.

Instead, the assistant principal, Rachel Taislin, was seated in the principal’s seat.

Rachel, the wrinkled principal… looked at the assembled staff with her sharp eyes wide open.

“Currently, Principal Obel Forsius is missing.”

Emergency situations that require the leadership of the final person more than ever.

However, there is only an agent there, and there is no Obel, the chief executive. So, who wrote this memo?

“Until he shows up… I will temporarily lead the bachelor’s response.”

Rachel took a breath in the principal’s seat, then exhaled again. I didn’t even have time to explain or make excuses.

“Bring all the reports.”
