I Possessed It Instead of My Younger Sibling - I Possessed It Instead of My Younger Sibling chapter 115

115 – Thunder Blade

“Good, Jesar and Baek are doing well.”

I nodded with satisfaction when I saw Jesar and Baekmyeon running wild inside the fortress, attracting the attention of students.

Thanks to Deuka and Krysia successfully defeating students with the [Detection] Gift and a significant number of the opponent’s top students, the probability of the operation’s success increased.

If this is the case, we can start quickly.

“…Are you really doing this…?”

“Of course.”

He continued to shoot human-sized rocks scattered around the area towards the fortress using the [Ejection] Gift, and a bewildered Lenabin asked in a trembling voice if he was really doing that. I nodded firmly.

Now that we have come this far, there is no option to not do it.

“Lenavin. Please take care of me.”

“…Yes, yes!”

The thought, ‘Shouldn’t we stop it now?’ Appeared on her face. I glanced at Lena Vin and prepared for the final stage of the operation.

******

“…This is difficult.”

Le Kai frowned slightly when he saw the students of the Tricolor Alliance whose actions had become a little sluggish, and the Jessar and Chief’s familiars running wild while surrounded by such students.

The morale of the students was quite low, perhaps because Mahit, the top tank, collapsed without being able to resist.

Under normal circumstances, Jessar, who was one arm away, should have been outnumbered no matter how much he was running wild with ghost-like force, but it was the students who were being pushed back.

“Furthermore, he is a familiar who takes advantage of his small body, high-speed flight ability, and considerable skill in wind magic to shake up the siege… That familiar is much more difficult than most top-level students.”

Because of that familiar, the power was dispersed and the battle, which was supposed to end long ago, continued sluggishly.

This side is far superior in terms of overall power, so they will not lose, but it will take a considerable amount of time to defeat those two.

Still, the way to win a match is not to annihilate the opponent, but to break the opponent’s flag first.

As soon as Lekai confirmed that four or more enemies were attacking the fortress, he ordered two separate units to aim for the opponent’s flag.

By now, the two separate units should have had the flag of Class A in front of them.

Le Kai cast a curse on Alaba, the warrior who served as the leader of the 1st Detachment.

“Alaba. How is the situation?”

-I arrived at the location I heard about in advance! I also found a flag! Currently in combat!

“Who is your opponent?”

-Char Sylvest, the only one! But I think we’ll need support from Detachment No. 2!

“Yes…?”

Le Kai tilted his head.

The members that make up Detachment No. 1 Are 7 warriors and 3 magicians who are fast-moving, high-level warriors from the Three Color Alliance.

No matter how much Char Sylvest is the best tank in the first year, there are limits to protecting a flag that is not yours from more than 10 people.

It would have been enough for the entire team, except for one person, to tie Sylvest’s feet even just for a moment, for another person to damage the flag….

Of course, Alaba was not unaware of that fact.

‘The problem is…….’

Araba glared at Char Sylvest, who was deflecting the onslaught of more than six warriors in front of her without blinking, or more precisely, at the ‘red cloth’ fluttering like a cloak on her back.

“Shar Sylvest is wearing the ‘flag cloth’ around himself!”

The criterion for being eliminated from the competition is when the fabric of the flag of one’s class is damaged by more than 60%.

Lee Seon-woo understood exactly what those words meant and said, ‘You don’t need to protect the flagpole, you just need to protect the fabric of the flag.’ He separated the fabric of the flag and had Shar guard the fabric.

As a result, in order for Araba to damage the flag, Shar Sylvest had to be defeated.

“Everyone adapt to me! Haaap!!!”

Araba pulled out sharp sword energy from her sword and quickly closed the distance.

Following the man, a separate group of warriors occupy all sides of Shar and close the distance all at once.

Perhaps it was thanks to the fact that they were connected to each other by flame, but the combination was superior to that of most knights’ passing techniques.

But… ….

“Huhhhhh──!!!”

Chaejaejaejaejaeng-!!!

The opponent was Shar, who had ‘the best defense skills among first-year students.’

By lightly swinging the great shield in both hands and the one-handed sword, he blocks incoming weapons as steadily as a giant old tree.

Gently use the sword and shield to tangle the attacks of the separate units.

The moment the enemy’s weapon enters the gap, the weapon is thrown away with the shield and sword filled with powerful strength.

A defense technique so arduous that it feels as if an invisible shield surrounds Shar.

There was not even the slightest scratch on the red cloth fluttering from her back.

“Is this the skill of ‘Guardian Sword’ Sylvest…!”

Finch-

At the words that Araba, who was swinging her sword, trembled at her, Shar frowned her eyebrows so small that no one could notice, then returned them, and she silently continued her defense again.

A fierce battle between 7 people and 1 person continued.

“Now is the time! Mountain dog!”

With Alaba’s shout, the seven warriors, including him, unleashed a full-throated blow and left the position all at once.

And right after that.

“””「River of Burning Flame」”””

Share’s vision turned red.

Rarrr!

The intermediate magic unleashed by the three fire wizards at the same time became, as the name of the magic suggests, a fierce river of flame, pouring down towards Shar.

‘How is it? In the face of an attack like this, you may not be harmed yourself, but you won’t be able to protect the cloth! This fight is our victory!’

Alaba raised the corners of his mouth, feeling a premonition of victory.

“───「Guardian’s Gwangsun」”

──I froze as I saw the brilliant shield of light that suddenly appeared completely blocking the river of flames.

“Poetry, sacred magic…?!”

“Did you use a magic tool!?”

“That can’t be possible! That’s not a magic of the perfection and strength that can be manifested using magic tools!”

“But the magician is not nearby… Oh?! There he is!!!”

One of the wizard students, who was confused as they looked at the shield of light that easily blocked their magic, pointed at something with his finger.

The finger pointed at Char Sylvest, to be exact, the light pink hair peeking out from between Char’s back and the fabric of the flag.

Shrugging her shoulders, Char spoke over her shoulder.

“It looks like you’ve been caught, Myris.”

“Ahahahaha… I guess the magic tool of concealment I received from Mr. Nice has had no effect.”

Miris peeked out from Char’s back and stuck her head out.

“Still, keep hanging on, Milis. It’s easier to protect that way. Even if they attack you, I’ll block them all.”

“Then please leave the magic targeting Mr. Shar to me!”

“…hehehe. Yes, please.”

Seeing the two people talking friendly, Alaba sent a prayer to Lekai.

“…Mr. Staff. If no support comes, it will take at least three hours. Please tell the guys from Detachment No. 2 To come quickly.”

******

Doruru, the leader of Detachment No. 2, Looked around and sighed.

“Are you the only ones who arrived…?”

There are a total of three people in this place, including his classmate Zikel, a Miao girl from another class whom he does not know, and the leader Doruru.

These three were the only members of the 10-member second unit that had not yet been eliminated.

Unlike the well-balanced Detachment No. 1, Detachment No. 2 Was a sharp group comprised of only Ranger, Rogue, and Assassin students with high level skills from three classes.

The role of the 2nd Division is to support and assist the 1st Division by secretly damaging the flag while the 1st Division is attracting attention, or, if that is not possible, putting pressure on the opponent through surprise attacks, sneak attacks, obstruction, and setting traps. It was.

However, if there are only three people, it will be quite difficult to fulfill their original role.

“I never thought they would know our path and set up so many traps… And those are only tricky traps that take advantage of the psychology of the scouts.”

“Time was running out to disband them one by one, so it was bad that we decided to gather in this place and split up.”

“Now that I look at it, it seems like the purpose of those traps was to make us act individually in the first place. It would make it easier to quietly assassinate each of us one by one.”

“Even if you do it one by one, assassinating the wary scouts cannot be done with ordinary skill. It seems that Nice Catsy’s skills are better than the intelligence.”

The only people talking here were Doruru and Jikel, but the Miao girl just stayed silent next to her.

The two people, who knew that most of the Miao people often met strangers face-to-face, did not pay that much attention.

At that time, Doruru received a message from Lekai.

-Doruru, where are you? It is said that support from Division 1 to Division 2 is needed.

“I’m about a minute away from my destination. Let’s go right away.”

-Okay. I will tell Alaba that. Please go as quickly as possible.

“Okay. …Ah, but there’s one problem.”

-Problem?

“Due to Nice Catsey’s sabotage, there are currently only three people left from Division 2: me, Zikelle, and a Miao girl from another class. We will provide support, but it may be a bit meager.

-…… 3 People? …… Miao people?

From Noble mtl dot com

“Huh? Le Kai?”

Doruru, who was questioning Lekai, whose voice suddenly became quiet──

-Doruru! Among the lines connected to all members of Detached Unit 2, there are only ‘2’ lines remaining! And——In Detached Unit 2, ‘There are no Miao people in the first place!’

“──What?”

──When I heard Lekai’s urgent words that followed, my thoughts stopped momentarily.

‘…… Then.’

Who is the Miao girl sitting next to him now──

───Nyahat♪

The moment I heard a child’s laughter in my ear, like a successful prank. An eerie chill ran down Doruru’s back.

Doruru reflexively jumped back….

“…Huh?!”

Suddenly-

The sharp black-painted dagger had already torn half of Doruru’s carotid artery.

“You, you…”

Doruru clutched the wound on his neck with one hand, took out a dagger with the other hand, and looked ahead with trembling eyes.

“Grrrut….”

“Nyan… It was a little shallow.”

There was Jikel, whose head had been cut in half, falling down with blood foam pouring from his mouth, and a Miao girl who was looking at herself with regret, holding a pair of daggers with red blood flowing down.

When the Miao girl took off the hood covering her head, her long bright purple hair fell down.

“Nice… Catsy…?! How, what…!?”

Even as blood poured out of Doruru’s mouth, she couldn’t help but say those words.

Now that she thought about it, the Miao girl had many similarities with the Nice Catsy she knew in advance.

But she didn’t think it was ‘strange’ at all.

Although she would have definitely noticed this if she were her normal self!

“‘Not feeling strange things as strange’ This is the essence of [Cognitive Impairment]. It’s a useful talent that I was able to do recently as my Gift level increased through training.”

‘It’s thanks to my hard training recently because I wanted to be of help to Seonwoo-nyang!’ Nice, with a charming smile, slowly walked towards Doru, who was kneeling on the floor.

Doruru’s eyes slightly lit up at that sight.

‘You let your guard down! Although I was mortally wounded, I was able to land at least one blow thanks to the ring imprinted with healing magic! At least I’ll take you as a street comrade!’

Whether or not she knew what Doruru was thinking, Nice walked leisurely enough to make her man feel impatient.

Take ten steps forward until you reach the optimal distance to hit the vital spot.

Five steps

Three steps

Two steps

‘… Step!’

Kkuuk-

Doruru’s hand holding the dagger gradually gained strength.

Tuk-

Nice suddenly stopped after her last step, but then opened her mouth with a playful smile.

“──So when are you going to stab me?”

‘I got caught… !?’

“Damn it…!!!”

The moment when Doruru feels frustrated but instinctively reaches out and stabs himself with his dagger.

Dizzy-

Doruru’s vision was distorted.

“What…What…?!”

Suddenly, her entire body stiffens with intense dizziness, and the dagger falls from her grasp.

Even if you try to pick up the dagger you missed, your entire body loses strength and you just end up rolling around on the ground with the dagger.

Only then did Doruru notice.

“Paralysis, poison…!”

“Nyahahahaha, why did you think I was deliberately taking my time? I let my guard down? That couldn’t have been possible. It was just to finish it more clearly.”

Nice held the dagger made from the fangs of a feralized cobra upside down and raised it above her head.

“Then, goodbye.”

******

“…Has the 2nd Division been wiped out?”

Le Kai sensed the line that had just been cut off and let out a bitter sigh.

‘This is my fault. The growth rate of Nice Cat City was measured too low. Due to her personality, I thought she would focus on information management skills rather than training…. No, now is not the time to dwell on mistakes.’

Le Cai changed her thinking.

‘Now that Nice Catsy is free, it’s as if Detachment No. 1 Has become dysfunctional. It would be better to give up any expectations that they can break the flag. No, if you think the other way around and think of three people tied together, it’s not that bad.’

‘There is no need to worry because Jin is in charge of Duka Pike, and Greenwood is probably not in a state to participate in the battle, as he has not made much movement since the giant giant disappeared.’

‘The barrage of rocks that keep falling…… Perhaps it was the work of the Tomb Wizard Lenavin? It looks like a new gift has been awakened. The hit rate is not that high, and the frequency of artillery fire has dropped a lot now compared to the beginning. ‘You don’t have to worry too much about this.’

‘Jesar Saiger will end soon. Then, since there is no way for the opponent to block Jin head-on, if you use the attack team centered around Jin──’

───Wait.

Le Kai, who was organizing the current situation step by step, realized a certain fact and felt cold goosebumps all over his body.

“Seok…?! Where is Lee Seon-woo!?”

He was not attacking the fortress, nor was he defending the flag.

Even though it was a critical phase of the war, his face was not shown once.

Literally, his whereabouts are unknown.

Lee Seon-woo hid his presence on the battlefield to the point that even Le Kai momentarily forgot about him.

‘Where…’ ! Where are you… !?’

Quiet. So much so that I can’t stop getting goosebumps.

The fact that a person who could shake up the current situation through force was not taking any action was even more frightening to Le Kai.

At that time, he was turning his head to the point where his head was feverish in search of Lee Seon-woo.

Swish-

I don’t know if it was a simple coincidence or an intuition as a staff member. Le Kai’s eyes unconsciously turned to the sky.

What came into her sight was one of those rock chunks that she had seen so much that she was now used to it.

Instead of landing on the castle wall, it flies in such an absurd trajectory that it jumps over the fortress itself.

For some reason, Le Kai couldn’t take his eyes off her.

“…No way.”

Suddenly, a reckless plan of hers that she would not normally give a second thought to flashed through the girl’s mind.

But somehow, Lekai could not ignore it and unconsciously calculated the trajectory of that rock.

“No way, no way…!!!”

── Her complexion turned pale as she realized that the trajectory of her rock went straight through her staff room where she was and where the three flags were planted.

“Wizards!!! Shoot down that rock right now…!!!”

Le Kai immediately gave instructions, but….

Faster than the wizards start chanting,

What a mess!

The Sword Demon broke the rock on his own and came out.

Like a young bird coming out of an egg, what is held in the hand of the Sword Demon who has broken through the shell of the rock surrounding him is the sword of thunderbolt, which continuously spews out ferocious lightning.

Lee Seon-woo lowered his sword and drew, releasing the enormous amount of heat contained in the sword.

──Changleiju (蒼雷柱)

I felt an intense flash of light that turned the clock white, and an explosive amount of heat hitting my whole body.

Le Kai’s consciousness was sucked into darkness.
