The Only Male Student in the Academy - The Only Male Student in the Academy chapter 94
094. All-out war (1)
Della has a fiancé.
A man named Kyle Nix, and a student at Beltark Academy.
-“Della… I’m going to ask you a real favor. I need to catch Joshua Beheritt’s eyes no matter what.”
-“If you heard it, you wouldn’t have known. That our family’s situation isn’t very good right now…”
-“I barely entered the line of the Duke of Beherit, but if I miss this opportunity, it’ll be really hard… Please listen to my fiancée just once…”
Anyway, there was no other choice.
Many student knights, including Evans, were taken over by Joshua, and the plan to kill Ariel was progressing little by little.
Even if you didn’t have your period, you probably missed the party for some other reason, be it a cold or something.
Even if he wasn’t himself, someone would have entered Ariel’s party and watched.
In the end, someone must have betrayed Ariel.
‘…… Self-rationalization.’
At a moment like this, I felt very pitiful for myself rationalizing.
He seems to have always been like that. It seemed that because he had no choice, he ended up taking on the hard work.
Her fiancé was a little more precious than a stranger like Ariel.
In the end, even if I didn’t do anything, the boss fight would have ended in failure by someone else.
If I don’t betray Ariel, someone else will take the role of the traitor instead.
Since I had no power, I couldn’t have stopped people.
Because it felt more comfortable to be an accomplice than to incur the hatred of my colleagues.
…… In the end, it seems that each time I choose the one that is easier to choose.
Even though I know it’s not the best.
‘So this must be karma….’
You have no right to regret.
As a religious person baptized by God, I have no choice but to accept all these sins.
No matter what the ending is.
“Princess Yoshua! Are you okay?!”
The Beltark Academy students ran towards Joshua.
Several escorts clung to Joshua’s surroundings, blocking the falling rocks with magic and sacred arts.
“It’s okay. …You seem to be quite rampaging.”
“Now what do you want to do?”
“Very annoyingly, monsters alone can’t kill those two.”
Joshua clicked his tongue lightly.
“Remove the stones, prepare to put ‘it’ in. Then torture.”
Joshua winked.
Then, some students from Beltark Academy walked towards Della.
“Della Calliot, right?”
“…What’s going on?”
“I need to give you information about Ariel Beheritt and Claire Entirus. What skills they have and how they fight.”
“It’s another story of selling out a colleague…”
Having said that, Della looked at her own arms.
Della was tied up.
He was handcuffed earlier when the Beltark Academy students subdued him.
“……Isn’t the promise wrong?”
“What promise?”
“Killing only one Ariel-kun… Killing Ms. Claire is against the promise…”
“If you look at the situation, you will understand. If you leave Cler Entirus alive, everything will fall apart.”
“We are cooperating on the condition that only one Ariel is sacrificed… Is it against the condition to sell a member of the same knights…”
“Is life not precious?”
Having said that, the man pulled out a dagger.
“…Even if we tell you the information about Ariel and Miss Claire, there is no guarantee that we will be able to get out of here alive.”
“Yes? Then I’ll give you time to think.”
-f*ck!
“Aww…”
A dagger lodged in his shoulder.
As it is, it is drawn from top to bottom, and the flesh is torn.
It took a very short time for the dagger to pierce the body.
Before he could scream in intense pain.
The man held out his hand.
“.”
The pain just now disappears as if it were a lie.
The wounds that had occurred are completely gone.
“Ugh…”
“If you tell me, I will let you go without pain. If you don’t tell me, you will continue to suffer.”
“…….”
“What are you going to do?”
Della shut his mouth.
Then the man thrusts the dagger back into Della’s body.
-f*ck!
The intense pain spread again.
But as the dagger stabbed again, the pain came.
Soon, as if it were a dream, everything becomes nothing.
Once, twice, three times, four times…….
The dagger pierces itself again and again.
“…Princess Joshua, this is wrong.”
The man threw the dagger.
“This b*tch, I will never tell you.”
“Why don’t you try harder, Lord Pelyar.”
“It’s a bunch. You can tell because they’re from the same priesthood. This guy is a ‘b*tch who ignores himself.’”
Pelyar answered like that.
Sacrifice…… Would it be a bit awkward to say that?
Among the priests, there are some priests who do not attach much importance to their own lives, and consider it a virtue to be able to represent someone else.
Once these people are recruited as allies, they will sacrifice their own lives to take the lead.
Now that trust has been broken, they are prioritizing more important values than their own lives.
Since he is a priest, he has excellent mental power, so he will never reveal it.
“That’s right.”
Hearing those words, Joshua suddenly turned around.
Behind him, the students of Beltark Academy, whom Joshua is working on, are waiting.
Points to one of them and gestures.
“Sir Kyles Nix, let you torture me.”
“……Yes?”
Kyles blinks.
“Because we’re engaged, you’ll do better than Sir Pelyar, won’t you?”
“That, that’s…”
“But if you fail, I’d like to give you a penalty. Yes, specifically… I’ll banish you from our faction.”
At those words, Kyles widened his eyes.
“Maybe you don’t know, so let me explain. Being expelled from my faction means being blacklisted. Being blacklisted, you probably won’t be able to join other factions. Because recruiting you means you’re not in a hostile relationship with me. Because it’s like wanting to be.”
“…….”
“It’s probably difficult to belong to a certain faction even after graduating from the academy. At the same time, you’ll be estranged from aristocratic society, and if that’s the case, it’ll be difficult to get a new wife after Miss Della Calliot dies here, right? The family might be cut off in your own generation, right?”
“………….”
Joshua continues her conversation in a relaxed tone.
Kyles moves his feet slowly.
In the future of Della.
“…Della, help me.”
“Kyles-kun…”
“Uh, anyway, you’re all dead anyway… If you’re going to die in the end, save me…”
“…….”
Della sighed.
Her fiancé, he’s saying really nasty things, but…… , She couldn’t help but feel hate.
In the end, if there’s anything bad, it’s that guy named Joshua.
Covet his power and try to kill his brother.
He’s trying to kill Claire and the witnesses to make up for what he’s done.
In addition to that, he’s trying to use his subordinates as well.
It’s just that everyone is being swayed by that man’s hand.
Looking at it that way, his fiancé in front of him is also just a victim.
‘God, what should I do….’
Until the last moment, I feel like I’m just repeating my mistakes.
If even one person can help, he thinks it’s right.
I wonder if it’s true that I’m playing with the intention of that man named Yoshua.
After thinking about it, Della opens her mouth.
Then.
– Kwaaang!
An explosion occurred below.
Part of the rockfall that filled the pit was collapsing.
Due to the explosion, stone fragments instantly bounced into the air.
Smoke rises from the collapsed crevice.
Within a matter of hours, the smoke from the smoke grenade filled the space,
My vision is obscured.
“Cough Cough…”
Everyone coughs.
It’s a smoke grenade.
That too, a large number of smoke grenades were detonated at the same time according to the timing.
And at that moment.
– The Quagga River!
A strong shock occurred right next to Della.
“What’s up!”
“It’s a bomb!”
-Kwaang!!
Another explosion follows. Caught in the explosion, Della rolls over on the floor.
“Ugh…”
“Senior Della, are you awake?”
Voice.
This is Ms. Claire.
“Miss Claire…?”
“Give me your hand quickly.”
Hesitantly, as I stretched out my hand, Ms. Claire pulled out something like a cutter from somewhere.
– Took.
A cutter cuts Della’s wrists into the handcuffs that were binding her.
Having found her freedom, Della stood up with her dumbfounded face.
“Miss Claire… Why did I betray you…”
“Don’t get me wrong, I’m not forgiving you.
With those words, Claire pulled Della’s body.
Then, a throwing dagger passes where Della was.
“As expected, smoke bombs don’t work against bandits~. They’re annoying.”
“Miss Claire…?”
“Okay, shield yourself. Come on.”
“Oh, yes!”
At Claire’s words, Della unknowingly memorized the barrier prayer in her mouth.
Della’s body is covered with a protective shield.
“It doesn’t matter whether Della senpai dies or not, but for now, it’s better for her to be alive, so come.”
Saying that, Claire grabbed Della’s arm and ran.
Continue to scatter bombs while running.
Due to the smoke grenade, most of the students were unable to prepare for Claire’s attack,
As it was, it was common to get caught up in bombs.
Thieves used to attack Claire, but it didn’t mean much.
Claire activated And passed through all the attacks while getting hit.
Like that, one by one.
One by one.
One by one.
Rescued the student knights.
“Claire… what the hell are you trying to do?”
“You acted like a traitor and ended up dying.”
Claire built the With a smile.
In addition to the nine student knights who were originally here, plus Claire, there are a total of ten.
Surround the surroundings with walls as if protecting two parties.
“…Are you trying to save us?”
“Isn’t it? We’re going to grind you guys ourselves later?”
“What…?”
“Think about it carefully~. Are you going to fight with Beltark’s hands or mine?”
“…….”
The student knights kept their mouths shut.
Various thoughts come and go.
Of course I hate dying.
Of course, I made a fatal mistake…… Still, who would want to die?
From noble mtl dot com
Beltarc intends to completely kill themselves, and if that’s the case, holding Claire’s hand will increase the survival rate at least.
Of course, Claire may come to judge herself later… , It would have been better.
I’d rather die being used as a filthy traitor,
Being punished by Philea Academy was also the only way to protect the honor that was lacking.
Various thoughts came and went, but the options were all the same.
All nine students had weapons in their hands.
“Your goal was to save your teammates from the beginning.”
Joshua’s voice is heard from beyond the smoke screen.
It seemed that he had figured out the situation through the thieves and rangers.
“It wasn’t difficult. As soon as the smoke screen exploded, everyone went to protect you?”
“That’s right. They say you stabbed the timing when the troops were loose… You’ve been using your brain a bit. But it doesn’t seem like much has changed just because the number of people has increased.”
At least, there were only two parties.
On the other hand, there are dozens of Beltark students gathered here, and they also have monster tamers who can handle large amounts of monsters.
The power difference is overwhelming.
Still, Claire never erased the smile from his face.
“You should know about the long and short laws~?”
Claire re-energizes him.
The ground shakes.
The ground you’re stepping on sinks downward.
On the other hand, that deep pit gradually rises upward.
The meaning of the height difference gradually fades, and eventually all the land is leveled to one height.
.
This is the magic Claire used earlier to destroy the ceiling.
“It looks like you’ve used quite a bit of magic. Are you okay?”
“Joshua, you’re unexpectedly stupid? I did it because it’s okay.”
“Is that so?”
Joshua was on guard.
The visibility is still not clear due to the smoke grenade. Claire suddenly made the surroundings flat.
That was by no means a bad story for the Beltark students.
There was a huge pit between that side and this side, so it was a very uncomfortable situation for each other to come and go.
In the meantime, since Claire had filled the pit, it was now easier for him to move there.
If it becomes easier to come and go, it is only natural that this side with a large number of people will be much more advantageous.
Claire probably doesn’t know that either.
‘Come to think of it, my brother was still at the bottom of the pit.’
It seems that Claire was the only one who climbed up the pit.
It is a strategy that can only be taken for granted.
As for Ariel, her defense is weak, so if she comes up to the ground, she will be defeated in no time.
On the other hand, Claire is excellent in his individual play because he has excellent defensive skills.
So I wonder if the purpose was to send Claire up and save the nine student knights.
‘Rather, the true purpose was below.’
Something is unclear.
I feel like I’ve fallen into a trap.
Then.
“Take out all the monsters you have and send them forward.”
Joshua ordered that.
In the current situation, there is no option not to attack.
Keep the pressure on, they won’t run away from here.
But it’s under a smoke screen and they’re preparing something.
In some ways, it is a risky situation to send students forward.
Joshua decided to send the monsters out to explore, and save the main force, the students.
That was Ariel’s goal.
-To da da da da da da da da da da da!!
A series of gunshots are heard from within the smoke screen.
Gunshots coming from all directions.
The monsters that were trying to advance became corpses and fell to the ground before they could advance.
“What happened?”
“Looks like a turret.”
“A turret?”
-Quagaaang!
Joshua’s voice is erased by the sound of an explosion.
The falling rocks that had just fallen from the ceiling shattered and scattered everywhere,
At the same time, it blew away even the monsters nearby.
Turrets that were hidden in the rocks appeared one by one.
It was something Ariel had already set up under her pit.
Turrets are installation weapons with unrivaled DPS even in Unknown Saga.
The problem is that it takes time to install, and once installed, you cannot change the location.
It was a weapon whose weakness was excessive passivity.
In that case, all you have to do is install it in advance and raise it with Claire’s magic.
“This is a blood contract.”
Between the fire-breathing turrets, the man who had climbed up from the floor also appeared.
In the blurred vision,
A cold, angry expression is visible.
This is Ariel.
He held a dagger in his right hand,
He cut off his own left little finger.
– Took.
My left little finger rolled on the ground,
From there, the magic circle begins to unfold.
“Today, when the blood shed by warriors is forgotten, it is a deal of a witch who has not forgotten about destruction.”
The man with blood all over his body said that.
