The Academy’s Weakest Became A Demon-Limited Hunter - The Academy’s Weakest Became A Demon-Limited Hunter chapter 311

311 – To the Underworld (1)

After school, evening time.

I arrived at the hideout by crossing Josena Forest next to the campus.

“Senior Dorothy.”

“Welcome, Chairman.”

Just in time, Dorothy, who was sitting on the roof, greeted me. Her witch hat was tucked down beside her, and her pale purple hair stood out in the sunset.

I jumped lightly, kicked off a tree next to me, and landed on the roof. After that, I sat down next to Dorothy and looked up at the sky together.

“Have you eaten?”

“Yes. What about you?”

“I just ate two whole chickens.”

“That’s roughly… is it?”

After some pointless chatter, there was a moment of silence.

Dorothy pursed her lips.

“President.”

“Yes.”

“You know when I fought with our fairies. What the fairy said then….”

“You can forget about it.”

Dorothy interrupted and answered.

He said that if he were alive, he would become a transcendental being, and then a cataclysm befell mankind.

No matter how you look at it, it was not a proposition that would be a good idea.

So I had to insist on my answer to Dorothy.

“Whatever happens, I will stop it. Senior Dorothy can just stay still.”

I pretended to be calm as if it was nothing. Because I wanted to reassure Dorothy.

I’ll do anything to stop it, catastrophe or whatever, so Dorothy hoped that she would live no matter what.

“… I was going to say that.”

… What?

“Yes?”

I looked at Dorothy. She was smiling.

“You know, Chairman. Who are you, that, forever… , I want to live with you… I am thinking.”

Dorothy blushed on both cheeks, as if I was ashamed of myself.

She seemed to smile more broadly as her mood became awkward.

“That’s why I wanted to ask you a favor. No worries, but…. If you think bad things will happen to people because of your sister, you stop it. Noona, the only person you can trust is you.”

Recognize. Worries were just for nothing.

Looking at Dorothy’s smiling face, my worries faded as if a congestion had subsided.

My intention became firmer.

“What kind of shame is that? Of course.”

I laughed out loud.

“Let’s do something.”

I have already lived in this world, and I have come to like this child too much.

So I had to protect it.

“Nihihi, you are trustworthy.”

We looked at each other and flirted, then looked up at the sky again.

For a while, nothing was said.

Dorothy put her hat back on, and she quietly leaned her head on my shoulder.

Her face was hidden by the brim of her hat.

“Hey, Chairman.”

“Yes.”

“I’m sorry.”

Dorothy’s voice trembled slightly.

“Sorry for the hardship….”

“It doesn’t really matter. Please stay by my side.”

Dorothy knows how to read people’s emotions.

Even if I’m good at hiding my expression, it’s hard to hide the emotions inside.

Well, it was fine. Because everything will be fine.

I didn’t budge.

……

With every step I took, the fallen leaves were stepped on.

I looked around and saw the academy cleaner sweeping the floor with a light wind spell and several brooms.

Autumn had passed in full swing, and winter was creeping in.

‘No big deal.’

Aside from the fact that Eve noona stalks me from time to time, nothing special happened.

Instructor Ron is showing a normally good lecture in the A class classroom as if he had never fought with me, and he did not show any abnormal behavior while being watched by the mysterious Cheshire.

Sometimes he only suggests playing chess with me. Of course, he refused every time.

Metel Valencia, an unsuccessful assassin who was imprisoned in solitary confinement in Dupendorf, was also still confined in a dream.

Despite holding her hostage on purpose, Instructor Ron showed no sign of her finding her Maetel. She is just living a normal academy life.

‘Lucce is also calm.’

Hegel Magic Tower Lord, Aria says.

After that, he said he hadn’t seen any sign of Luce breaking into the lab.

It was just that Luce went with me normally.

And then one day.

“There will be a Dalian evaluation soon.”

Orphin Hall, 2nd grade A class classroom.

Professor Philip Meltrun delivered the announcement.

“We hand out 2 battle application tickets. I’ll trust that everyone knows what to do, and I won’t explain.”

‘I forgot….’

There was a Dalian evaluation. I haven’t been paying attention lately.

It wasn’t particularly important. In the second semester of my sophomore year, I promised to fight with Luce, but that was only for the purpose of measuring my skills.

Now, thanks to the unique attribute [Archmage’s Realm], I can roughly match Luce’s combat power.

It would be a pretty good combat experience if you pretended to be confident while talking nonsense, ‘I’ll deal with you as Isaac, not as an Ice Emperor’, and then deliberately lowered the effect of [Combat power against humans] Before fighting.

‘If I lose, it will be said that I lack the sense of battle.

It will be a good judging criterion.

“Then, report back when the opponent is decided for a week.”

……

“Luce.”

“…… ?”

It was after class in the morning. He tapped the shoulder of Luce, who was sitting in the seat.

I pointed to the door of the classroom and moved my steps, and Luce followed me without saying a word.

We stood facing each other in the shade behind the building.

I could hear the voices of the students walking around the campus, but it was okay because this place was out of sight.

“Isaac, pervert.”

“Suddenly?”

What is this contextless selling… ?

“What are you going to do with me in a dark place like this?”

Luce tilted her head and questioned her with a gentle smile like that of her aristocratic lady.

When I wrote [Psychological Detective], I could only read the psychology of wanting to be with me all day long.

“Don’t worry, I never had any strange thoughts.”

“It’s okay. I have no intention of refusing to do anything.”

“That is a pretty dangerous statement… ?”

Luce laughed briskly.

She is always cold to others, but always smiles warmly to me.

That smile was very elegant and graceful compared to his reckless words and actions.

“First of all, this. I’m afraid it will be noisy if I give it to people.”

“Huh?”

I took out 2 couplet application tickets from her arms and handed them to Luce.

Luce looked at the second copy of the application with her questioning face.

“Luce, I’ll apply for sparring.”

By handing over the sparring application ticket, you can request sparring to the opponent.

The opponent has the right to refuse, but if he receives 2 tickets for sparring, he must fight forcibly.

Luce received 2 tickets for Dalian.

“… Revenge? You haven’t beaten me once because you’ve been hiding your strength.”

Revenge. I have such a mind.

0 Wins 259 losses in 259 matches. This is my record against Luce.

If I were to choose the opponent I fought the most in this academy, it would be this guy.

“Not really. Originally, I was thinking of competing with you. And Luce.”

“Yes.”

‘Why did you secretly visit the teacher’s lab?’.

It was difficult to ask directly into Luce’s blue eyes.

“… Let’s go eat.”

Luce grinned.

“Good.”

……

“Are you planning to fight against Luce Eltania?”

“Yes. I still haven’t beaten him.”

Deep in the night. Hegel’s Magic Tower, Aria’s laboratory.

We talked as we entered the secret passage.

“If you really work hard, even Luce Eltania won’t be able to win…. Deceiver.”

“Even so, if we meet at eye level to some extent….”

“Then he won’t like it.”

… That’s it too.

If I show you how to fight hard against Luce at an appropriate eye level, you’ll feel like a deceiver.

If you deal with me, Luce will be very offended.

‘Did I think too much of myself….’

It would be necessary to persuade him with good reasons in advance, saying, ‘It’s to evaluate my combat sense’.

“I see. Thank you for letting me know.”

“Let’s skip the useless talk. Something is wrong.”

“Yes?”

In the secret laboratory, there was a barrier deployed to prevent the escape of the mana that wandered inside. After experiencing the mana leak accident last time, it has been further strengthened.

The effect is to prevent magic from being detected outside the barrier.

It was difficult to prevent the release of strong magic power, but Arya was the one who built the barrier, so it should be possible to prevent any leakage of magic power.

We passed through the barrier and entered the secret laboratory and stopped in front of a disparate crack. As usual, a solid barrier surrounded the rift.

‘Something… the feeling is?’

For some reason, I felt different from the last time I came.

“Can’t you feel it? A faint magic power.”

“What is this?”

Aria spoke seriously.

“Even that powerful underworld storm that sweeps away natural mana cannot reach this far beyond the rift. However, as a result of observation, this magic power is not confirmed as natural mana.”

If it’s not natural mana, it means that it’s someone’s body magic.

“In other words… , It is the magical power of the strong that transcends imagination.”

Arya made a terrifying conclusion.

“It is estimated that someone in the underworld is watching this rift. Is there a possibility that it is Myeongwang?”

“No. Myungwang is always careful not to allow his magic power to cross over to the underworld.”

A mysterious strongman is aiming for someone who will cross over to the underworld through this rift.

I can’t even imagine how strong he is if he can channel his body’s mana beyond this rift.

‘Maybe….’

I approached the barrier and stretched out my hand in front of it.

A strong person like this must have a monster’s magic power perception.

He poured ice magic with his outstretched hand. Then, the density of the magical energy that had been flowing faintly suddenly increased.

“This is… ?”

Arya’s eyes widened.

It has been a long time since she, who was always emotionless, showed such a startled reaction.

‘I’m sure….’

The existence beyond the rift sensed my magic and reacted violently.

He knows me.

“Hmm.”

Arya crossed her arms and leaned her head against the wall.

“You may feel it too, but no matter how much you are, it will be difficult for you to be safe in the underworld. Just in case, I ask, can you really cross?”

Dorothy talked about it in the first playthrough.

From noble mtl dot net

It’s next to impossible for me to reach the Ice Lake.

‘Really….’

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.

‘Why is everyone f*cking?’

From Vuel, King Myung, to an unknown monster. Why are there so many intruders….

I took a long breath and kept my emotions in check.

Suddenly, I remembered my high school life.

Whether it was at the beginning of the civil service life or now. The fact that it was terribly depressing was one thing.

However, the problem that everyone’s lives were at stake and the possibility of success was too low was emerging.

I had to bear this weight.

‘But….’

Play 1 Dorothy was worried about me. Nonetheless, she told me how to get to the ice lake.

You must have guessed that I had no intention of seeing Dorothy self-destruct.

“Of course I have to.”

I couldn’t give up no matter how many monsters there were.

I looked at Arya carefree and smiled kindly.

“It’s not long now. Please take good care of me until the end, sir.”

“… ….”

Arya looked at me calmly, exhaled gently, and nodded her head.
