The Academy Needs a Real Education - The Academy Needs a Real Education chapter 108
Episode 108. ceryl (1)
As the wind blew through the broken branches, the burned and torn remains of the robes flew into the sky.
Under the group of black stars that happened like that… .
It was the moment when I heard the sound of rainwater pouring into the forest and thought that if I could hear the sound of the Milky Way flowing, it would be like this.
Looking up at the blue night sky where the dark clouds had receded, Mel spoke to me in a voice mixed with tears.
“How could the stars be so happy… .”
The blood of enemies and allies that flowed from the piled up corpses soaked the land where the fog had lifted.
A falcon was flying over the wreckage of Dipel, which had hidden in the fog of Rahne and rushed toward the main unit.
‘The knight’s garrison is over there… . It’s been pushed quite a bit.’
The garrison of the Imperial Knights, who had become distant before they knew it, proved a fierce battle.
“Uncle, are you okay?”
“… yes.”
“You don’t look very good.”
“It’s really okay. And… . Thank you, Meriel. I couldn’t have survived without you.”
The attack of the Dipels, who rushed at them in a situation where they couldn’t see their eyes well, was so stealthy and threatening that it would not have been noticed if it had not been for the assistant of Meriel, who had become a commander.
‘My legs are shaking like this after receiving Meriel’s assistance.’
The other members didn’t even have to speak.
because that… . I couldn’t bear to say that I had to be vigilant of my surroundings just in case, even as I watched the crew collapsed on their seats.
The fog dissipated, and the view around was quite open.
Considering that the lightning that struck in the distance was Kegar’s magic, it seemed clear that the two dragons had met.
From the subsequent silence in the forest, it was clear that the confrontation had entered a lull.
‘Whether the enemy’s offensive is completely over or it’s just taking a breather, no matter what, there won’t be an additional offensive for a while.’
It wasn’t until I reached that point that my legs relaxed.
“Meriel, you should get some rest too.”
I’ll have to take a look around at least one.
Rather than Meriel, who suddenly used too much power, or the crew members who were sitting in their seats and breathing heavily… . Ian, who served in the front line until a semester ago, must have good stamina.
Fortunately, my body, which had not completely collapsed even after half a year of teaching, helped me to endure just by getting on my knees and breathing hard.
of course… . Even that brief break had to be stopped the moment he saw the corpses of the members among the Dipels.
‘I can’t leave my colleague’s body like that… .’
As I went out to collect the bodies of the crew members, the other crew members stood up one by one and moved to search for traces of their comrades.
Bitten arms, bloody legs.
Moisture rose drop by drop in the eyes of the members who faced their coldly cooled comrades.
“professor… . Was their sacrifice worth it?”
Then, suddenly, Mel, who was gathering the scattered remains of a close friend, asked.
“Mel… .”
“He said he had a daughter who was just starting to walk. But because I tricked him into saying that I had to stop Eclipse… .”
“Mel, no one here was forced to come here.”
“but-“
“His death should be respected, not pity. if not… . Are you going to stop like this?”
“… That shouldn’t be the case.”
“We must keep moving forward lest his death be in vain. instead… . His unfulfilled dreams, duties, responsibilities, and even the family he left behind. We should put it on our shoulders. … On the day the barrier here is lifted, Lewen’s report will reach Esca Castle.”
“… .”
“For the sake of this race, there were humans who gave their lives.”
The situation is not over yet, and the enemy is still mighty.
Don’t be satisfied with surviving the enemy’s barrage.
At least… . Today’s death shouldn’t have lost its meaning.

“Junior-!”
Dana, who had teleported with the detached team that had dealt with Fang, ran and looked at my physical condition and cried.
“Ego, it’s bleeding here… !”
“Didn’t you fight Kegar? From Professor Dana-”
“I’m fine. Because I’m a pababag. I was scared and ran away.”
“I’m fine too, take care of the others first.”
“Hold on your forehead. It’s okay, look at the heat! Wait a minute, I’ll get you some new clothes from the hotel.”
“ah… .”
It was only after the tense battle was over that he could feel that the cold wind and rain was taking away his body heat.
This was the same for the other surviving members of the association, so Dana had to return to and from the hotel several times for us.
There was no time to warm up, so I had to shake off the water, but in the current situation, that was enough.
“… Four out of five diepelns died, and Rahneman Kegar and I ran away.”
Dana said to me, sweeping the face of the young wizard who had died with wide eyes.
“Diffeln, as well as Dipeln, were almost wiped out… . There will be no more attacks on us on such a large scale, right?”
“If Kegar backed off, wouldn’t it be peaceful at least until tomorrow night? It is not known what else will happen when the observers arrive here.”
The attack failed, and now the responsibility for cleaning up the mess fell to Princess Seryl.
‘but… .’
The position of the second person in the imperial family had the power to turn the tide of war at any time.
I had to prepare in advance so that I could tie her up as much as possible.
“After Kegar, is this time Seril? eww… .”
Dana asked me, frowning, saying that it gave me goosebumps to go around in pairs.
“Will Seryl and Kegar give up their mana reduction research? If the different races knew what happened here, even the princess would never be safe.”
“We’ll have to keep an eye on how the other side will respond.”

Cheryl struggled in the dark.
A blanket made of feathers from birds that fly higher than the snowy mountains where Sharp lives is constantly moving on the bed.
The pillow, soaked with sweat, started to smell like rotten water.
When she opened her eyes wide after overcoming the endless nightmare, the dark blue sky outside the window was just fading to blue.
‘dare-‘
The room is still dark.
In Seryl’s eyes after waking up, a dragon statue symbolizing the authority of the imperial family was laughing at me grotesquely.
The bed, which had been as cozy as lying on a cloud, was like a swamp that gradually sank and was buried.
The scenery of the bedroom that is so bizarrely distorted… . Seryl did not even scream, but glared at him steadfastly.
“… I’m sorry for contacting you at a time that is too early for you to cough.”
“No, thank you. Kegar.”
“… .”
The voices of criticism and the finger pointing of unknown people that had been heard in the darkness that covered all sides were pushed away again to the other side of the dream by Kegar’s voice.
Grabbing the phone with both trembling hands, as if grabbing a lifeline, she listened to Kegar’s report while rubbing her bloodshot eyes.
“her. I thought he would be a formidable man, but I never thought he would be able to stop that army… . Amazing.”
“They will now try to inform Esca Castle of everything they saw at the research center, just in time for Princess Frill’s arrival here.”
“Don’t worry too much about the different races. When I first heard the report from you, I wrote my hand in advance.”
Nothing will change if the different races find out the truth.
The important thing is what the empire, the imperial family, and Obama will know.
“… Now that I have reported the fact that the vampires have been trying to hide somehow, they who fear the Empire will not dare to act rashly.”
“Are you talking about the recent surge in the incidence of Dipel? However, Esca held the responsibility for that to us-”
“Kegar, when it comes to politics, the one who first speaks out and dominates public opinion is the law that says the truth.”
“That means… .”
“Our research did not lead to a drastic increase in Dipels… . The incidence of Dipels has skyrocketed, and the Empire’s events must have been attacked because of them.”
“… .”
“The barrier around the laboratory is still intact, right? Kegar. Announce right now that blood-blind vampires raided the Caldera Lab and ruined the festival of the Imperial Society.”

Vampires lost trust in the face of the rising incidence of Diffel.
No matter how vehemently they protested… . The words spoken by the side of a blood-drunken, maddened clan would be taken as deceit by the demons.
“In that case, the vacancy of the vampires who guarded the border would have to be filled by humans. Anyway, this was something that should have been done at some point. It was impossible to leave the borders of humans to other races forever… .”
Kingdoms that could not defend their borders on their own in the past did not survive long.
“anyway… . In order to fully unfold the potential of human beings who will develop endlessly, they had to part with the heterogeneous tribes that stopped under the outdated fake god someday. If we continue to allow them to block our free research, we will become stagnant like them… .”
“You intend to continue your research on mana reduction theory.”
“yes… . However, the different races won’t leave it alone, so it’s necessary to set up a new research site. Kegar, as soon as the call ends, burn down the underground lab. It’s troublesome if there are traces of research left behind.”
“All right.”
When the phone call was cut off, Seryl called an attendant while enduring a headache that felt like stones were rolling in her head.
“Right now, I have to explain to Obama the situation on the lab side that I talked about… . Kegar must have prepared a crystal ball to contact the imperial family, bring it.”
Seryl gazed coldly at the center of the bedroom, where it repeatedly twisted and returned, over the other servants who hurriedly changed their clothes.
‘Do you think I, who will soon succeed His Majesty, will be crushed by the ghosts of the past?’
The moment the mana reduction theory research is over, the evil spirits that invade the dream will also disappear.
The specter that only the theological students or the Rang people can attain Buddhahood is also a kind of mana.
If you can analyze the structure and develop a method to completely kill it… . This damn nightmare is over.
‘I won’t let anyone who gets in my way.’
Neither the guardian deity nor the specter were objects of awe to her.
Seril, who was wearing the most beautiful clothes, ordered the attendant.
“Call Obama.”
5 am.
The emperor was still racking his brains, thinking of ways to protect the borders with minimal sacrifice.
The scene of Kiruna’s presentation, which should be a festival, was engulfed in flames with numerous corpses.
The Empire pushed another gun at the heterogeneous race.
