The Only Male Student in the Academy - The Only Male Student in the Academy chapter 86

086. Living Doll Raid (2)

Out of 18 years of life, right now is the most unseemly moment.

Jean Kartix thought so.

‘… Don’t even budge As if it wasn’t my body.’

No matter how hard I try, I can’t move on my own.

The feeling that each and every bone in your body has become someone else’s. It is rather strange that only the eyes and mouth are free.

It was so shameful that I wanted to bite my tongue and die right now.

I’m so upset that I was dominated by monsters, but I’m cutting my comrades with my own hands.

“Aagh!!”

Another student knight is knocked down by Jin’s sword.

Kkaduk. Because I bit my teeth too hard, the inner molars are chipped away and are cold.

But I didn’t like that kind of pain. As each second passed, the raid was heading towards failure.

There are two main reasons for the growing defeat.

The first is that the first, second, and third parties, the elite parties of the raid, are tied to themselves.

In other words, it was the story that he had this shape because of himself…. Really, I want to die.

But even if you bite your tongue and die right here, it will be useless. He subconsciously senses that he will attack his comrades even after becoming a corpse.

Second, the number of injured people continues to increase.

This raid is a composition that suppresses the number of people rather than systematic linkage. However, the number advantage has already been lost due to too many casualties.

If there are a lot of wounded, the number of people to deal with them also increases, and the burden on the tanker increases to treat the wounded, and then another injured occurs…… A vicious cycle ensues.

‘Think…. What should i do… ?’

Jin said so and focused on her memories and information.

Despair creeps up my throat.

It’s painful enough to make you feel like losing your mind, but you still clench your teeth and open your eyes.

-“I want Jin to be the next raid leader. I’m sure he’ll do well.”

-“I think it’s a groundless belief that I’ll do well, Deputy Knight Commander.”

-“I have no experience as a raid leader. Also, information about Living Dolls is insufficient.”

Yes, I was against it at first. That means being the leader of the attack.

What Jin hated the most in this world was the unknown. The unknown breeds anxiety, and anxiety breeds fear.

That’s why Jin didn’t like this raid very much.

Nevertheless, Jayca,

-“You don’t have to go if you don’t want to go. Then I’ll go.”

-“…The deputy captain is leaving? You can’t do it with that body.”

-“Even if it’s not possible, there are circumstances in which I have to go.”

-“I’m begging you, Jean. Go as raid leader for Andy’s sake.”

His tone was light, but the content was never light.

I still don’t know. Why is she so serious about clearing the catacombs dungeon?

Is she for the honor of being the first to clear the Catacombs Dungeon? But she doesn’t think it’s worth risking her life.

What is more important to her than her life?

Besides, Jin doesn’t know why the name of the knight commander came up.

She just thought she had to go herself instead of the injured Jay Carr.

She knew that Jay Carr would never give up on her, so she took her place and she came here.

She thinks that her strength is that she is always cool-headed and comes to the best conclusion.

If Jayka expects that from herself,

“.”

Jin released his magic.

She seems to think that the only thing she lost was the initiative of the body. She wasn’t dominated until the power that moved her magical powers.

Then, the only thing I can do in this situation is to use magic.

Jin Kartix, the 1st in the 3rd year magic combat department, majored in Flash Elemental.

A flash elemental is a magic that deals with ‘light’ itself.

Light is not a substance but also a wave,

In some cases, it is also a substance that contains particles.

It was Flash Elemental that handled both sides.

Jin crushed the released mana grains himself.

Within the crushed grains, a ‘luminescence phenomenon’ occurs, generating light.

If you gather the particles in it and condense it into one place and sublimate it from an abstract concept to a material one, it becomes a great blade.

Is it really the same light defined by science?

Convinced that probably not, Jin swung the sword of light.

Lightsaber.

The blade of a lightsaber that can only be seen in the SF world draws a curve,

Jean Kartix——He struck at himself.

– Push!

With a moment of heat, the arm disappears from Jin’s shoulder,

His severed left arm cuts through the air with a very neat cross-section.

“Go, raid leader…?”

“……Hmm.”

Enduring the pain somehow, Jin moves the sword of light once more.

From noble mtl dot com

This time, she rolls on the ground with her right leg severed below her thigh.

Losing one of her legs, Jean Karthix’s body tilts momentarily and nearly falls.

“Kuh, heh, ugh…!”

Kartix’s concentration, lost in intense pain, is dispersed, and the ‘blade of light’ collapses,

Bass Scattered grains of light melted into the air.

The leaking blood reaches the floor and soaks it like a river,

Even with her white face, Jin endures with her mental strength.

“…I’m sorry I’m late. I should have done this earlier.”

And she says.

Then she moved again.

Jin is still being manipulated by Living Doll. Even though she has only one arm and one leg on her back, she’s still putting pressure on the raiders.

But that momentum is dead compared to before.

Since she used to wield her sword with two arms and switched to one, her cutting power has been weakened by half.

Since she only has one leg, it becomes difficult to keep her center of gravity and she looks like she will collapse at any moment.

Still, it’s not enough.

She is the one who is evaluated that next year she will be the leader of the knights. She knows that despite losing each of her arms and legs, she is quite strong herself.

A situation where her own strength becomes rather poisonous.

‘… Is her bleeding okay? The possibility of shock death…… Is it not there yet?’

Thinking about that, Jin gathers her mana.

I can’t help it.

He had to cut off one of her other arms as well.

“There’s no need for that, comrade Jin.”

At that moment, the peripheral vision narrows.

Walls form on both sides,

A girl with a shield appears from among the students and headbutts her torso.

It is impossible to dodge to the side because of the wall.

So the Living Doll manipulated Jin’s right arm and made it move to strike at her approaching shield.

Jin tried to hit her shield with her sword, but

The shield that Maurice Aiva held out was too heavy, and instead, it was her own side that was pushed away.

“…You’re late, 7th Party Adjutant Lapisca.”

Jin, who was hit by the shield and couldn’t kill it, speaks.

Next to Maurice Aiba, who still raised his shield against Jin, Lapisca stepped out.

“I didn’t know you were waiting, our lovely classmate.”

She smiled as usual.

Take a quick look around.

Lapisca and Maurice Aiba are in front.

I see Ariel Beheritt and Claire a short distance away.

Judging from the fact that the other members of the 8th Party are nowhere to be seen, it seems that those in front of me are a separate group.

Jin sighed.

“Can you…?”

“It’s a motive. Trust me.”

Lapis Car pulled her weapon from her arms.

Looking at that, Jin also fixes her sword regardless of her own will.

“There’s nothing I can do but believe anyway.”

Lapisca and Jin are fighting.

Jin, with only one arm left of her, swung her sword.

Lapiska then takes her dagger from her left hand, deflects it, and takes her chain from her right hand.

Jin avoids it by twisting her waist, deftly stepping back behind her with only one of her legs.

Then she leaps again and stabs.

Even though it was an unexpected attack, the movement was great. That’s why Lapiska reacted sufficiently and evaded without any problems.

As it is, when Lapiska takes out her stick and strikes her Jin, Jin continues to attack her while getting hit with it.

“Ugh…”

Although Jin, who was beaten by her baton, may not have wanted this situation.

The pain causes her eyes to contort for a second, and yet she continues to move her one and only arm to stop her attack.

Balance.

In the fight between Jin and Lapisca, no one was at a great disadvantage, keeping the correct balance.

The first reason is that even though Jin only has one limb, she has stronger specs than I thought.

And the second reason is that Lapiska must not kill Jin, so she is controlling her powers.

“Ariel, I managed to fix it somehow.”

Claire said that from the side.

Looking around, I can see that there are several Installed by Claire.

Between those walls, our tankers were desperately defending the front lines, desperately blocking the army of puppets.

As Lapiska took over Jin, she called in the tankers who were tied to Jin.

By strengthening the tanker line in this way, the friendly front line that was being pushed back could be maintained, and at the same time, it was possible to buy time to rescue and recover the wounded.

As the wounded who had been treated in this way gradually returned, a sense of stability began to emerge throughout the raid.

But this is just the starting point.

No, it’s not even the origin. Right now, I’m just defending myself.

Even though it is an ‘attack’ unit.

“Ariel Beheritt, I have brought you as requested.”

After hearing Claire’s , Nina came here with three people.

The second party leader, Siegfried.

Head of the 3rd party, Evans.

And the 7th party leader, Belairam.

“…The second son of Duke Beheritt. Why did you call us?”

Siegfried said with a face as if he didn’t have time, what are you doing?

Evans next to him didn’t look very happy either.

“I called it a situation that requires a story rather than a blind fight. With the raid leader in such a state, there is no one to command the battlefield.”

“So, you’re going to lead us? You’re cheeky for a first-year subject.”

“I’m not saying I’m going to lead. I’m going to make a proposal to my seniors from now on. You can listen to me, or you can go on to do what you’re doing if you don’t like it.”

“Ha, if you’re a duke, you’ll get an excellent education, but you can’t talk back. Are you really a jerk?”

“If you twist it, you’re a noble.”

It was Claire who said that.

Claire giggled and took a small step forward.

“Claire… Have you forgotten that I am your senior?”

“Ah~, I didn’t forget~. But I don’t think you think about things after the raid is over, do you?”

“Are you threatening me with the authority of the Marquis of Antirus? You seem to have forgotten that you are just a student knight.”

“That senior seems to have forgotten that my qualifications for the Student Knights are currently suspended~. So I don’t think I have any reason to listen to you right now~?”

“You…!”

“Ah, but can I keep doing this, senior? You’ll be seeing me often in the future, so I don’t know if it’s okay to blush like this~.”

Claire babbled as if it were his own world.

Siegfried kept making an angry expression, perhaps because his pride was hurt, but he couldn’t come out strong.

It is also because Claire is the daughter of the Marquis of Entirus,

Because I know that if you really touch it right, it can get tiring later.

Knowing that fact, Siegfried couldn’t do anything more than show off his pride as his senior.

“Both of you, stop! You don’t know that’s not the case!”

Eventually, an annoyed Belairam intervenes.

Then Claire, who had been making a provocative expression until just now, immediately changed his face.

With a very sorry expression.

“I’m sorry, Vice President of the Leading Department. Come to think of it, that wasn’t really the situation. I’ll be careful to prevent this from happening in the future.”

“Huh…?”

When he sees that Claire, who had been arrogant until just now, is nowhere to be found, and sees Claire innocently apologizing, Belairam is momentarily taken aback.

The same goes for Siegfried, who was behind him.

I look at Claire with a face like what the hell is this bastard doing?

– Took.

Meanwhile, Claire, the person in charge, subtly pushed my back.

My body is momentarily pushed forward by the sudden power,

Everyone turns their attention to my sudden action.

When I glance to the side, I see Claire smiling that only I can see.

As if it were now.

‘… Really.’

After all, he is a noble among nobles. No one can match this guy in terms of his ability to create an atmosphere.

Anyway.

At this moment, everyone is silent and paying attention to me.

I immediately opened my mouth.

“It is the thread that controls the raid leader.”

Speaking of things that no one here knows.

The first step is to attract interest.

From there the story begins.

“A thread?”

“Yes. The thread used for sewing. Of course, what Living Dolls handle is thread created with magic, so it is invisible and cannot be touched. But—”

I deliberately speak quickly. Just to make sure Siegfried didn’t say anything strange.

And leaving the waterline open for my next words, I gestured toward Nina.

“Threads created with magical power can be cut by striking magic as well. ──Nina, you can do that, right?”

“Yes, it is possible.”

“I think it’s better to divide the group into 4 groups. First, restore the raid leader to normal.”

As I said that, I looked at Belairam.

“Cut her thread with Nina as the Vice President of the Leading Division deals with Jin Kartix.”

“…You mean that?”

“Leaders are the strongest in this group, so they will be suitable. At the same time, we need people who have to deal with Living Dolls, and people who can control the force of dolls raised by Living Dolls.”

And that will be done by the student knights led by Siegfried and Evans.

Speaking of that, Siegfried’s exasperated expression from earlier is nowhere to be found.

His eyes were narrowed as if he was curious about a word I hadn’t said until the end.

“I heard there are four groups. What is the other one?”

“It’s just what my colleagues and I have to do.”

I say.

“I’m going to burn the tree.”
