The Academy’s Weakest Became A Demon-Limited Hunter - The Academy’s Weakest Became A Demon-Limited Hunter chapter 291



291 – Rachnil Subjugation (1)

There was a tomb of strange swords.

Numerous swords stuck in the ground were made entirely of iron, including the hilt.

Weapons not made by humans.

However, it was a weapon that imitated man-made weapons.

In the center of the sword tomb, there was a hill of bones full of ashes, and a greatsword stood there, struggling in the wind and rain.

A man advanced toward the greatsword. He was a man with clean, white hair.

The raging rain and wind could not reach the man wrapped in brilliance and only evaporated. Its sanctity was something that only rainwater could not touch.

Finally he came to the front of the greatsword and stopped.

[Fairy, Rachneel. I know what you’re aiming for while holding your breath.]

Before long, countless swords vibrated and made a shrieking noise.

In succession, the iron mana contained in the greatsword flowed out and took on a bizarre shape, then glared at the white man.

[Advance the plan a little.]

[Who are you to order me?]

A child’s voice echoed in the white man’s head.

The iron magic took the form of sharp weapons and seemed to tear the man to pieces.

But the man looked at the figure and just smiled.

[It’s an order, it doesn’t make sense. I am bel Fairy Rachnil, will you make a deal with me?]

This is a story from several months ago.

* * *

“I-what is that?”

“What is this magical power… . What!”

“scared… .”

Students panicked.

Noah in front of me said, “Lachnil… ?” he monologued in a very low voice and was in shock.

‘Why is that already here… ?’

Something went wrong somewhere.

Even if there was no guarantee that the scenario would go the way I expected, the mighty greatsword in the sky should not have come out already.

＜Merchen’s Magical Knight＞ 「Act 11, Scene 2, Fairy Battle (1)」.

It is a scenario that begins after the academy competition is over and the iron fairy Larkneel appears.

For the few remaining students on stage, Rachneel starts a game of death with rules similar to the academy competition.

As you clear the game, other fairies will come and battle Rachneel.

At that time, our main character, Ian, temporarily inherits power from the fairies, strikes Lachneel and clears the scenario.

However, it is now in the very beginning of the academy competition.

‘There are still too many students.’

Even if the guys around them were strong people from one of the most prestigious academies in the kingdom, they were nothing more than scarecrows walking around against Rachneel.

Fairies are the most dangerous creatures in this world. It lives quietly for the order, balance, and peace of nature, and its power is indescribable.

Among them, Lachneel is especially dangerous as the final boss of the 「Fairy Wars」 part.

It was to the point that even Noah, a genius, became a strong man who was set at level 189 with just one iron mana. What level of monster was Lachneel, the source of iron magic?

‘What’s wrong?’

The film of my memory was spinning in my head at high speed.

Suddenly, the meaningful encouragement I heard yesterday passed through my mind.

─ ‘Student Isaac. I’m looking forward to the match tomorrow.’

‘Vuel… ?’

shaking pupils.

I averted my eyes and activated [Clairsight].

With my shining silvery eyes, I looked at the Longinus instructor from the far away side of the crowd, namely, Vuel.

He looked at me as if he had noticed my [clairvoyance], grinning with his long lips tearing.

It seemed like he knew things would turn out this way.

A relaxed expression as if telling me to ‘Try to overcome this situation’.

─ Couldn’t you have foreseen this?

The shape of Vuel’s mouth moved like that.

“That bastard… !”

I clenched my fist and looked back at the past.

Vuel came to Merhen Academy and declared war on me.

But that was it. That guy hasn’t done anything to me yet.

Are you belittling me?

no. On the contrary, Vuel was wary of me. I was acknowledging my strength.

Then why did you come to Merhen Academy? Why did you reveal your identity to me?

‘It’s obvious.’

Did he really not know that if he declared war on me, he would of course work at the academy under my supervision?

‘No way.’

Of course you would have known.

But that guy made me realize his true identity right away.

There was no option for me to choose to kill me or not to watch over the highest-ranking Elyos and immortal.

in other words.

‘Then rather… , Did you declare war because you wanted me to keep an eye on you?’

My brain is getting organized.

It must have been that Vuel rather wanted me to keep an eye on him thoroughly and with all my might.

I have a reputation as an archmage who can foresee a dangerous future to some extent. Also, in the eyes of others, the power I possess is unknown.

That’s why, even before coming to the academy, Vuel must have tried his hand at the elements that could threaten me, and then tried to test the range of my abilities.

The greatsword of the sky revealed my limits here.

Until the conditions to defeat Vuel are met, the confrontation must somehow continue. I was provided with unfavorable information.

‘This is not the time to think like that. First of all, the children!’

Thoughts came to an end quickly. Anyway, there were priorities now.

I was about to shout.

“I’ll protect you, so everyone run away from here… !”

[With whom?]

A child’s voice ringing in my head.

It was the voice of the iron nymph Rachneel.

A chilling aura ran down his spine. Are you targeting me?

Woo Woo Woo!!

Kugu Palace!!

“Kyaaagh!!”

“What, what?!”

The iron magic covered the dark clouds. The dark clouds, which had turned into liquid mercury, soon began pouring down rain of swords.

Although the veteran wizards hired by the organizers of the academy match unleashed powerful elemental attacks and developed layers of barriers.

Wow Jangchang!!

The rain of swords easily cut off all attacks and shattered the barriers, pouring down countless times.

No matter how high-level the magic of the veteran magicians of the kingdom was, it was an urgently developed barrier. In front of Lachneel, he could only be at the level of a sheet of paper.

You have to spend time casting and deploying a solid barrier to block Rachneel’s attack. It would be useless if Rachneel decided to pierce it, but I don’t have to worry about that just yet.

I quickly scanned the surroundings with [Clairsight]. Under the command of Emperor Carlos, the wizards were preparing to deploy a powerful barrier by casting each one.

“Run quickly!!”

“Sah, save me!!”

“please!!”

“I’m going to die like this, quickly!!”

“Aww!!”

Spectators screamed and evacuated.

The talented spectators poured magic to block the rain of swords temporarily and tried to evacuate the people safely.

Injured one after another.

At that time, a pale green tree bloomed in the stands and began to scatter a wide range of light. The wounded’s wounds healed in an instant.

It was Kaya Astreang’s plant magic.

With Chara!!

At the same time, dazzling starlight magic spread, distorting the rain of swords to minimize damage.

One of the exceptional class that can effectively counter the power of fairies.

‘The power of another fairy.’

Kaya and Dorothy were struggling.

Other talented spectators assisted them by evacuating those who had just been cured or pouring out magic.

‘This side has to buy time too.’

My current level is 157. My level rose by 1 before the academy competition started.

There was a total of 73 remaining stats, and 69 stats were invested in [combat power against heterogeneous races] before the academy competition started.

That is, my current state.

[ potential power ]

Retained Stats: 4

◆ Fighting power against races

– Combat power against heterogeneous races (A-): 70/100 [UP]

[ situation ]

Name: Isaac

Lv: (192)

[Combat power against heterogeneous races] was demonstrated, and my stats rose dramatically.

I developed [Fossil Ice], a wall of ice flowing with rock magic, so that the stage of the academy competition was wrapped around it.

Deed deed!!

Koo Goo Goo!!

The battlefield of the academy surrounded by [Fossil Ice] that flashes in an instant.

As the [Fossil Ice] clashed nonstop with the rain of swords, a loud noise repeatedly rang through the air.

“As expected, Bingje-nim… !”

“Awesome… !”

“Thank you, Mr. Bingje!!”

The cheers of the students were not very pleasing.

I have the means against Rachneel. It is the unique attribute [Night Blade].

From noble mtl dot net

However, that trait only had the effect of feeding Rachnil an effective hit.

The iron attack had to be countered purely with my elemental magic.

‘I don’t think I can last long… !’

Even my best defensive magic was having a hard time stopping the rain of swords.

According to the original scenario, the rain of swords only served to separate the contestants from the spectators, aiming for the lives of the spectators.

As it fell, it turned into an outer wall that separated the stage from the audience.

‘First of all, the kids here won’t die right away… .’

This was just a delay to delay the completion of the stage that Rachneel wanted.

“Maybe we’re good now?!”

“Ian Fairytale! There’s a black-haired guy from our academy! Find him!”

I responded loudly to one student’s question.

“Ian Fairytail?”

“ah! child of light! Right?!”

“I will come to you soon!”

The students blindly followed my instructions without throwing up.

Ian has the power to stand against the fairies.

Even in the game, he fought fiercely against Rachneel with the support of his teammates. You can feed the fairies effective hits.

If Ian had the unique attribute [Night Blade], he would have had the effect of the damage buff.

‘If it’s Ian, I can stand against Rachneel, and if the enemy isn’t a demon, I won’t die.’

In the first place, beings other than demons could not kill Ian.

Because Ian is a scammer who has been blessed by the fairies that have been passed down in the Fairy Tail family.

If Rachneel arrived here, Ian and I planned to kill the fairy as quickly as possible.

Even if I have the unique attribute [Night Blade], I won’t be able to protect all of these students from another academy competition that Rachneel will hold.

“Noah.”

I looked at Noah in front of me.

Amidst the roaring noise, he was trembling as he stared at the beautiful ceiling surrounded by [fossil ice].

It must be because of the past trauma that Rachneel gave him.

“Noah!”

“Yes, yes… ?”

When I shouted, Noah looked in my direction with a startled face.

“Rachneel will target you. This is not the time to be shaking like that.”

“Do you know Rachneel… ? Rather, how do you get my name?”

“That’s done. Stay alert and be prepared.”

Looking up at the ceiling made of [fossil ice], I lifted an ice crystal onto my hand.

“Because I’m going to subdue that fairy today.”
