Chapter 175 Academy Incident (1)
“Keugh… … .”
Heinrich felt pain and opened his eyes.
Looking around, he seemed to be lying in a carriage.
“here is… … .”
“Ha, Heinrich-sama!”
A young man nearby rushed at him.
It was Camilo who had been assisting Heinrich since the blue class 2 days.
“Are you out of your mind? Some body… … .”
“Camilo… What is the situation now?”
Heinrich got up while feeling a headache.
“The fight against the Dark Heaven Demonic Cult… … ?”
“Ah, that… … .”
Camilo said cautiously.
“It ended with our victory.”
“It ended in victory?”
“Yes, Ernas Landstein… You have taken down the Patriarch.”
“… … !”
Heinrich opened his eyes wide.
Aernas defeated the leader of the Dark Heaven Demonic Cult… It was something Heinrich did not want to believe.
“Aernas… … .”
But it wasn’t something I couldn’t understand.
Because Aernas was the only one left in the Lichtenau Knights who could defeat the Patriarch.
“Camilo.”
“Yes, Mr. Heinrich.”
“How has your father been?”
“Mrs. Brantley… … .”
Camilo made a sad face.
“sorry. It was not possible to move the body.”
“… … .”
“Because the volcano erupted after that… I think it will be impossible to find the body.”
Heinrich bit his lip while listening to Camilo’s explanation.
I bit so hard that blood flowed out, but I couldn’t help it.
I had to accept the death of my great father, Brantly Agrippa.
“Camilo.”
“Yes, Mr. Heinrich.”
“Were there any other sacrifices?”
“Professor Valentiano… You lost your life fighting the Patriarch.”
“Right… … .”
Heinrich sighed.
Not only Brantley but also Valentiano lost their lives, the sacrifice was too great.
“Professor Angela was also injured in the fight with the Patriarch, but her life is not affected.”
“The Patriarch… Were you that strong?”
“I haven’t seen it myself, but… It is said that Professor Valentiano and Professor Angela were so fast that they could not react properly.”
“That was it?”
“Yes, the other graduates who were watching didn’t even see how the Patriarch was attacking… … .”
It was shocking.
The movements of Brantlina and Angela, who boast the highest level of speed, are not invisible.
Does that mean the Patriarch was stronger than that?
“If my father was alive… Could I have responded?”
“That, that… … .”
“No, that’s it.”
Heinrich sighed.
Brantly Agrippa was definitely the pinnacle of the highest level, but it wasn’t that much of a difference compared to Valentiano or Angela.
Agrippa might have been able to counterattack with the Blue Moon Swordsmanship, but… In the end he would have lost his life.
“Such an enormous existence… You mean Aernas defeated you?”
“Yes, just… No one knows how they fell.”
“Why?”
“It’s because everyone retreated and Aernas fought alone.”
“That’s funny.”
Aernas probably didn’t show the spirit of sacrifice.
He was confident that he could defeat the Patriarch with his own strength, so he just chased away the intruders.
“He’s an amazing guy… … .”
“Heinrich… … .”
“Is my defeat confirmed in the end?”
“Heinrich… … !”
Camilo raised his voice.
“It’s not like that! Heinrich never… … !”
“No, I have to admit it now.”
This time, Aernas made a tremendous achievement.
As the leader of the Knights of Liechtenau, he destroyed the Dark Heaven Demonic Church and personally punished the Patriarch.
No matter what achievements Heinrich makes in the future… You can’t go beyond Aernas.
“The position of Archduke of Lichtenauer will go to Aernas.”
“Heinrich!”
With this achievement, Aernas will become the Archduke of Lichtenau.
There is nothing to worry about anymore. Everyone will unanimously crown Aernas as Archduke of Lichtenau.
Things would have been different if Brantlina or Heinrich had defeated the Patriarch… Brantley died, and Henry did not participate in the fight against the Patriarch.
“Damn it, that guy Aernas gets in the way of Heinrich-sama like this every time… … .”
“Camilo, don’t get me wrong.”
“yes?”
“Because I don’t care if I lose to Aernas.”
Camilo’s eyes widened.
“Heinrich-sama, what is that… … .”
“It doesn’t mean much now. Becoming Archduke of Lichtenau or defeating Aernas.”
“… … !”
“It’s not that I’ve fallen into desperation. only… Because I realized that there are more important things than that.”
“that is… What is it?”
To Camilo, who blinked and asked, he replied in a calm voice.
“As the successor of the Agrippa family, I want to become a graduate who is not ashamed of my father.”
“… … !”
Heinrich remembered his father’s last appearance.
The figure of the father who was preparing for death and making a final counterattack against the mighty Archbishop Alberich.
“Now I don’t have to compare myself with anyone, I don’t have to compete.”
“Ha, Heinrich-sama… … .”
“I just need to elevate myself to a higher level.”
This is, in a way, back to square one.
In the days when he was called a ‘prodigy’, Heinrich didn’t care about others at all.
He did not think of competing with anyone, and he only honed his own abilities.
It changed when I was defeated by Aernas, but… Now it will be back to normal.
“You don’t have to worry about Aernas. As Heinrich Agrippa… As the son of Brantly Agrippa, I just need to be able to show what I’m not ashamed of.”
“Heinrich… … !”
Camilo looked at Heinrich with tears in his eyes.
In front of those loyal eyes, Heinrich smiled bitterly.
“I’m sorry, Camilo. It seems difficult to give you a position as an aide to the Archduke of Lichtenau.”
“No, no! You don’t have to say sorry to me!”
Camilo shouted, lowering his head.
“I respect Heinrich! No matter what position Heinrich is in… I will continue to assist you by your side!”
“Yes, thank you.”
Heinrich had returned to the starting point, but it was never the same as before.
In the past, I wouldn’t have said thank you to Camilo.
From noble mtl dot com.
Of course, I wouldn’t have said sorry.
that much… Heinrich had grown up.
“Camilo, could you bring me something to eat? It’s because I’m hungry.”
“Ah, I see! I will prepare right away!”
Camilo hurriedly ran out of the carriage.
Watching the back, Heinrich took a small deep breath.
and… He raised his hand.
“… … .”
He stretched out his magical energy towards the sword that was lying in the corner of the carriage, but the sword did not budge.
“It’s not at its peak yet.”
Heinrich muttered with a bitter expression.
It seemed like he hadn’t reached the pinnacle yet.
“still… … .”
Heinrich had already mastered the Agrippa Blue Moon Swordsmanship.
Because he was able to clearly see his father’s final blow, he was able to recreate Agrippa’s Blue Moon Swordsmanship, which was originally only at the peak level.
soon… You can even reach the pinnacle.
“Aernas, see you then.”
Even if he reached the pinnacle level, Aernas would be on a higher level.
But, it didn’t matter.
At that time, you will be able to fight confidently by Aernas’ side without feeling inferior or jealous.
Aernas is Aernas, and you are yourself.
Thinking so, Heinrich got off the carriage alone.
And without anyone knowing… disappeared into the dark
* * *
“Heinrich disappeared?”
“Berisrije, do you know anything?”
The march back to the central region.
When Serine approached and asked, Veris Lise frowned.
“How do I know? I’m not particularly friendly.”
“Could it be because Brantley passed away?”
“You were shocked by your father’s death and went into hiding? I don’t think he would.”
“It is, but… … .”
After the battle at the Headquarters, Heinrich, who had been losing consciousness, disappeared.
According to the last Camilo I saw, he asked for a meal and then disappeared.
“What does Camilo say?”
“Heinrich will definitely come back… They just say that.”
“Then I have no choice but to believe it. Excluding Aernas, the one who understands Heinrich the most is probably Camilo.”
“is that so… … .”
“Leave it alone. You will do well.”
Berithlyze said in a plaintive voice.
“The Dark Heaven Demons have also been destroyed, so you don’t have to worry about losing power anymore.”
“that… Yes.”
Brantley and Valentiano were killed, and Angela was also injured.
If Heinrich falls into this situation, the Lichtenau Knights will be in a very precarious situation.
However, as Berisrize said, the Dark Celestial Demonic Cult had already perished.
It doesn’t matter if the Lichtenau Knights don’t function properly.
“Even master swordsmen are in a state where they can no longer fight. It will be peaceful for a while.”
“… … .”
Currently, there are no forces capable of causing a war within the Empire.
Because Aernas subdued everything in the previous fight.
“Now, when Aernas becomes the Grand Duke of Lichtenau, there will be nothing to worry about. Because no one will be able to stand up to Aernas.”
Just as Berisrize said, no one can stand up to Aernas now.
The only one who could keep Aernas in check was Brantly, but he was killed in this fight.
The academy professors are on Aernas’ side… From now on, the era of Aernas will begin.
“If the succession to the throne ends successfully, a peaceful era will begin.”
“It is a peaceful time… … .”
“If that happens, Aernas will be able to decide who to take as his true companion.”
“Ah, why are you talking like that all of a sudden?”
Serine blushed and glared at Berithlyse.
“As the Grand Duke of Lichtenau, Aernas must be the fiancé of Her Highness… … .”
“How many times do you say it’s formal? By any chance, even if Aernas really intends to marry Her Highness, if one of us steals Aernas’ heart… … .”
As I was having such a conversation while lowering my voice, I heard a cold voice.
“Neither of you, this isn’t the time to be talking about that.”
“Hey, Chloe?”
Chloe was approaching with a serious expression.
“Ooh, we just… … .”
“What is it, Chloe Yusburg? Are you holding us back?”
“It’s not like that.”
After responding coldly to Berithlyze’s words, Chloe lowered her voice and spoke.
“A while ago, Aernas-nim left alone.”
“… … !”
Following Heinrich, Aernas also left alone.
Hearing the unexpected words, Celine and Berithlyse opened their eyes wide.
* * *
‘I’ve gotten used to mana control now.’
As I moved through the wind, I felt the stable circulation of mana throughout my body.
At first I felt dizzy, but now there is no problem.
It was perfectly adapted to a sword-class body without a mana heart.
‘Even if I don’t use the power of the spirit world, my magic efficiency is better than at the peak.’
Now I was moving using ceremonial techniques.
Speech is a spirit art, but now it’s almost like flying.
‘This is enough… I can arrive in a few days.’
I am moving west now.
The Lichtenau Knights were heading north to go to the imperial palace, but I got out alone and headed west.
‘I have to go to the academy right now… Because I can hit the ball.’
It will soon overtake the development of the novel.
Because of that, this is the last time I can hit the ball.
‘Since Ernas isn’t acting secretly, it won’t be exactly the same as the novel, but… President Aldbaut’s position will be the same.’
Academy President… ‘White Rang Sword’ Aldbaut.
While we were doing military activities outside the academy, he was always guarding the academy.
However, from now on, he will move himself.
‘So I have to raid the academy first.’
Ahead of the final showdown, the skirmish begins soon.
To win this skirmish… I will launch a preemptive strike against the Lichtenau Swordsmanship Academy.
