I Became the Villain’s Childhood Friend - Chapter 478



Only Noblemtl

#478

* * *

The end of October was hotter than the beginning of October.

Because it rained heavily, it was also muggy.

And under that weather.

A woman squatted in front of a memorial space on one side of the city.

“Guys, I’m here.”

She looked at the tombstone for a moment and then put down the bouquet.

Her name is Eloise Grimes. She has extremely white skin due to her Irish descent.

Expected to graduate soon.

I was a 4th year student at Palaistra Academy.

There is only one reason why such a woman came here today.

It was none other than to commemorate her friends who had recently died.

“She fought well enough… “She said. …”

Thanks to the abilities of her parents, she has lived a prosperous and happy life.

She was so happy that she couldn’t stop laughing on social media.

But not anymore.

Thanks to the invasion of the World Tree camp earlier this year, her happy life was turned to dust.

“You sneaky b*stards…”

She faced endless waves of enemies.

And the result was the death of her best friends.

A friend whose body is torn to pieces by fire magic.

A friend whose throat is pierced by a sharp spear.

A friend who was surprised by a poisonous sting just as he was about to briefly negotiate peace.

A friend died after falling from a high-rise building with his protective shield destroyed while trying to save others.

From that day on, she lost her smile

She has been happy to be the head of an organization since two years ago, and she has not even shown her smile to her father who lives in Ireland.

Time on SNS has also stopped.

As she crossed the irreversible river, Héloïse despaired as if she had left everything behind.

It was part of this despair that brought her to see her gravestone to commemorate her friends.

She was struggling to remember the irreversible past and to wash away her guilt.

Naturally, nothing was resolved.

All Héloïse could do was suppress her sadness and anger, which she wanted to release anywhere.

Something that I don’t know whether it was rain or tears were wiped away.

“Seniors… Hmm…”

When I looked next to her, I saw some people praying sadly.

In fact, regardless of her actions, her appearance was full of muscles.

Even looking at the equipment on their waists, they looked like wizards.

She appeared to be a muscle mage or a strength mage.

“Damn it, for someone who can block a knife with just his muscles…”

“If that wizard hadn’t used wide-area magic at that time, he would have lived…”

“I will never forget this incident. This Kaia Mitchell will definitely get revenge on those guys, so I hope everyone is in a good place.”

A cadet who is not yet an official hunter but an aspiring hunter would make such a promise.

What is going on in the world?

It was a truly bitter sight.

Héloïse felt even more angry that there were many people like this besides her.

“Guys, let’s go together!”

“Oh my gosh, I can’t even pull the wheelchair with my shattered arm anymore.”

“So I’m just going to roll the wheel…” ” ” … !”

She turned her head to the other side at another cry.

There, three Chinese women were walking down the street making noise.

No, rather than walking down the street, I was moving forward with difficulty.

This was because all of the injuries were serious.

“No, other than his legs, this guy who is bad overall, what kind of roll can he roll?”

“It’s better than being pulled by you with a shattered arm or Faye with a shattered skull.”

“Pay! Syaoran! “I have a problem with my cervical spine, not my skull!”

When I saw the three Chinese people wearing bandages, my fists clenched.

Charelle Theaine, I couldn’t forgive those children.

“You b*stards. “I will kill them all.”

Of course, it was just words.

Apart from what she said, there was nothing she could do now.

That’s why I felt sadder.

That I can’t take any action right now.

There was no other way than to live like this with bitter feelings.

Of course, as time passes, the day to take revenge on them may come, but that was not now.

“Under…” … It’s so unfair.”

Héloïse stood up from her seat with her head down.

As always, she was just about to helplessly turn her steps.

Beep!

A notification rang from her hunter watch her strapped to her wrist.

Even looking at the sound, it seemed like an urgent notification from the academy.

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Even people around me rang without mercy.

It wasn’t just sent to one or two people, it was sent to everyone.

“What else happened… ?” …”

I lifted her wrist and checked her message.

And then it froze.

Her surroundings

Everyone looking at the wrist with the hunter watch on did not even see a single movement.

It felt like the world had stopped.

But the rain poured down on her, soaking her floor and clothes.

“Uh, uh…”

I don’t know how much time has passed.

The lips she opened and an indescribable moan escaped.

e
It was none other than the content of the message.

Heloise read the message over and over again.

〈Emergency Notice〉

Dear comrades of Palaistra Academy.

Over the past few months, we have suffered indescribable pain and loss due to the barbaric invasion of the World Tree faction.

Our beloved family and friends lost their lives, and our livelihoods were mercilessly trampled.

The streets of Arecibo were stained with our blood and tears, and our hearts were torn to pieces with sadness and despair.

But we can’t sit down like this.

Because the light of hope that was above them has finally begun to shine on us.

It is none other than the great researchers of the Nartica Corporation who have finally secured the technology to create a teleportation gate.

Now we can also advance into their territory.

This is essentially an opportunity for revenge.

So I would like to ask you.

Dear cadets, do you want the same tragedy to repeat itself?

Do you want to just suffer helplessly like you have been doing up until now?

Do you pray that we will forever be on defense against those who want to kill our friends and family?

No! It must end now!

What has happened over the past three years is enough to bring shame to defeatism.

Now is the time for us to fight back.

They must pay the same price as the pain they caused us, or even more.

Let’s let them know the despair and anger we felt.

Nartica Corporation plans to soon unveil teleportation gates connecting their major cities.

Due to confidentiality, the exact target cannot be revealed, but the target will be the second city of the Galacothede Empire, the water transport city of the Kingdom of Smarti, and the capital of the Principality of Aquodros or the Kingdom of Catuium.

Of course, not even! Germania, home to inferior races that consider massacre a virtue, and Rome, Italy, home to their minions, could be the target!

This time, we will sow fear into their hearts.

Just as they brought death and destruction to us, this time we will burn their homes and streets.

We will fight boldly and resolutely in this burning city. I will wield the blade of revenge in the name of justice.

So, I ask you all to join me in this sacred vengeance!

If we come together as one, no enemy will be able to stop us.

If we fight together, victory will surely be ours.

At this very moment, let us sublimate the anger, hatred, sadness and loss within us into burning fighting spirit and courage.

Let’s use the blood and tears shed so far as a torch for revenge!

Let’s never forget the sacrifices of our loved ones and let’s all stand up to honor them!

We will never be afraid!

I will not back down or give in!

You will definitely overcome it!

November 3rd!

On that day, our righteous anger will consume our enemies!

Everyone, be prepared!

Soon, the revenge of innocent souls will be completed with the blood of our enemies!

Ugly god, death to the world tree!

Glory to the just and free Palaistra Academy cadets!

– Nartica Corporation.

– From the Puerto Rico branch.

Securing teleportation gate technology.

And finally revenge.

What Héloïse had long for was approaching.

The day to honor the souls of our friends who died innocently would soon begin.

She thought that there was still justice in the world.

On the one hand, she was surprised that there was a righteous person and righteous corporation that would condemn her damn children.

“Of course, it’s a shame that we’re not attacking Hero Academy, but… “This is enough.”

It was a bit disappointing, but I was in no position to choose between hot and cold food.

In any case, it didn’t matter as long as they could show their hatred to those damn b*stards.

I looked around with great satisfaction.

People who were depressed were changing their expressions one by one.

“Is this real?”

“Take revenge? To them? By opening the teleport gate?”

“Ha, my God. “Oh my God.”

“Did you really secure the recipe for the teleport gate? But how?”

“It doesn’t matter how you got it! What’s more important is that we can finally hold those damn devils accountable!”

There were many questions.

But one thing was certain: there was no one she didn’t like.

There is no need to be consistent with defense anymore.

Now it’s their turn to take a big hit.

“Wow, wow!!!”

“Senior Mitchell, this is the notice…” ” …”

“At las!” Finally!”

“I finally have a chance to tear them to death!”

“Let’s see the date… November 3rd? “I have to prepare right away!”

“Yeah, I guess that’s the way to go.”

Muscular wizards around.

They showed a determined attitude.

“Oh, I guess the Academy is planning to launch a large-scale attack.”

“Fay, you idiot. “It’s something we do at Nartica, not at the Academy.”

“Isn’t that what it is? Well, it’s still a pretty good thing anyway. “We can take revenge on those who made us like this.”

“But is revenge possible when our bodies look like this?”

“If that doesn’t work, why not go to the Korean guy Syaoran stole money from at the arcade before and ask for some elixir?”

“What’s the point of eating away? “It was over a long time ago, and it’s been over two years, right?”

Chinese trio.

Although they were injured, they showed a positive attitude.

‘Many people will join.’

It certainly will.

Heloise smiled faintly.

Then she looked at the memorial in front of her.

I threw out my friends’ names once and nodded.

“I will definitely pay you back.”

There were more than one person who gave this reaction.

Because similar reactions emerged not only from those around her, but also from people somewhat distant.
