Chapter 26 – Wolf Time (2)
Beyond the false confession of love, a flash cut through the air once again. Raging flames. Roar. A man who came with a sword. Familiar elements were dragging the academy into another nightmare, scraping away the scars from three days ago that had not yet healed.
Is it firecracker magic? Since it had always assumed only interpersonal magic, it was unable to respond to this type of magic. The casting speed was fast, I didn’t feel alive, and the preparation process was short.
Clearly caught off guard. Except for this one, he never thought he could see through fabric with magic. No, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of it. I just forgot about it because of my superficial inferiority complex.
Was Rebecca right when she said to learn magic? The teachings fused into the experience were being realized in a twisted way.
“You must be embarrassed, Lope.”
“…”
“Because of what happened a while ago, everyone is sensitive to the explosion, so they’re going to come out right away. Since the sparks are still flying, even an idiot would know that the source is the student council president’s office.”
“It’s an effective magic.”
“It’s basic, too. Don’t think about running away from me. You won’t have time for that and I won’t let you do that.”
I have no intention of doing so in the first place. Already, footsteps began to be heard from the other side. Besides, if Roselia is determined and gets in the way, there is a possibility that things will get bigger.
I should be able to neutralize her somehow, but after that, I don’t have the confidence to get out of here with her.
…
It’s embarrassing. Really.
“Should we go this far, Rogeria?”
“It’s because you keep bouncing around. A man’s foxy behavior isn’t very attractive. Even now, calmly say that you’ll follow me.”
“Do you have any way out of this situation?”
“There are a lot of methods. Although communication consumes a lot of mana, you can hide one of them. I won’t do anything wrong to the Duke if I find out I’m here. But I’m running out of time. So, give me the sword quickly.”
“Why. If you don’t have a sword, do you think you have the confidence to stop me?”
“No. But if you give me the sword, it’s the same as giving it to me. I’ll think of it as a security and keep it.”
Roselia stretched out her hand towards her. Then, without realizing it, she grabbed the handle of her sword. At that moment, something like an instinctive attachment moved her body.
“Time keeps running, Lope.”
“I know.”
“If you get caught, you’ll die. I always did, but there’s hardly anyone in the academy who’s kind to you.”
“You wouldn’t want me to die either.”
“That’s why I’m pleading, not threatening. Lope please. Think wisely.”
Meanwhile, the footsteps were getting louder and louder. Thud. Thud. Thud. Thud. Thud. Along with the bustling movement, the heartbeat fluctuated in sync. It felt like I was running with them.
Thud. Thud. Thud. Thud. Thud. Footsteps. At least six. No, ten. No, maybe twenty. The sound not only grew louder, but also increased. Who woke me up at night It seemed that he was angry with someone who disturbed my sleep.
Were these guys moving so fast? Maybe the memory of the explosives that exploded that day remained as a kind of nightmare. That’s why it may have reacted so sensitively to the sound of an explosion. I even laughed a little when I thought that those beasts had nightmares. Probably all the guys who were awake jumped out.
Maybe thanks to that, the girl who was looking for her mother in her classroom earlier got some rest.
If so, it might be Roselia’s first good deed.
Bang!
“…!”
Suddenly, heavy footsteps were heard in the midst of useless thoughts. She tried to pass it off as if she was a bit big, but Rogeria had a particularly frightened expression on her face. And then he brushed me off again.
“Lope. I don’t have time. Don’t be stupid. Give me the sword here quickly.”
“…”
“Lope please. Hurry up. Don’t make things difficult for nothing.”
“…”
“Lope!”
Eventually, she screamed and screamed. Her voice was so loud that she couldn’t even hear it outside. But she put her hand out this way as if she didn’t care about that. This was the last moment to make a choice.
Are you obediently following Roselia?
Or are you going crazy again?
If I was a sane person, I would have chosen the former.
But well…
…
“.Haha.”
Suddenly, a laugh came out. Suddenly Lena’s heart seemed to make sense. Moment of crisis. Will you break your wings and entrust your body to the hands of the savior who promises you happiness? She shook her head and flew into someone else’s hand.
Now it was my turn to answer that question.
“Lope!”
Finally, Rogeria screamed. Suddenly, footsteps were almost at the door. Now her hand was approaching as if to grab my sword.
“Give me the sword now!”
“…”
“I don’t have time for this. I just…”
“…I’m sorry. Rogeria.”
“What?”
“But you know.”
I took a deep breath and raised my sword. Roseria’s eyes slowly moved up along the surging tip of the sword. In the unusually blue moonlight, the shadow of a huge sword split her body in half.
Looking at it, I spit out a word.
“I’m crazy.”
“What…”
Roselia opened her lips in vain. At the same time, a sharp sword cut through the wind and pointed over her head.
And the next moment, it rushed towards Rogeria and shattered the communications equipment on her table.
“…!!!”
Rogeria couldn’t even make a sound as if she was startled by the sudden action. Was she shocked that the essence of magic engineering was destroyed by simple violence? Her lips trembled for a while, until she heard a thud outside her door and turned her head towards her.
“What are you doing…!”
Her voice barely came out, but before she could finish her words, I grabbed her by the shoulder. Then he put the raised sword into her scabbard and whispered into her ear.
“From now on, you’re going to have a hard time too.”
“You… You… Do you… Know what you’ve done…”
“I know. Your value in the academy will end with this.”
“I… I…”
“I’m the only one who needs you on the island now, Rogeria.”
Thud!
Again the heavy footsteps were heard. It seemed that he had entered the student council president’s office. I added one last thing before he entered the room.
“So run away too. If you don’t want to die.”
“I…!”
Bang!
The next moment, the door opened and several men rushed in. In front of him was a particularly large man. I glanced at the man and then turned back to Rogeria.
And, he kissed her lips tightly.
“Town…!”
“…”
“…What?”
All kinds of noise leaked through the suppressed breathing. Rogeria’s startled breathing. Footsteps stopped all at once. And someone’s surprised voice. When I glanced sideways, a large man was frowning in this direction. I don’t know, but it was a very uncomfortable expression.
“What’s the situation now…”
“I’m sorry. Rogeria.”
But I parted my lips without even looking in that direction. Then he said, stroking her shocked cheek as lovingly as he could.
“I will definitely come back.”
“What… What… Lope…?”
“These bitches…”
While Rogeria stumbled, not knowing her English, abusive language came from the other side. But before he could finish his words, I ran to the other side. And threw herself against the window with all her might.
Again, the boundaries of reality were shattered, and a sharp rupture tore both ears. After that, the sound of calling my name rushed at me as if grabbing the scruff of my neck.
“Lope!!!”
“You Lope!!!”
But all those sounds disappeared without a trace as gravity gripped my body. But that strange silence was short-lived. The irresistible law of falling violently tugged at my hair.
“…!!!”
Soft wind and hard ground. The two rushed towards me at full speed, as if in a race. When the hissing match finally ended with the victory of the earth, I clenched my teeth.
…
…
…
“Hahm …! Manda … Ah … Ah ah …!”
I let out a painful breath as the air rushed into my squashed lungs. Right before the fall, I rolled over to the ground to minimize the impact, but I still felt like my internal organs had burst.
Maybe I fainted for a moment. When I looked up, I heard a loud noise coming from the window I had just escaped from. Was the student president’s office on the second or third floor? Head dizziness due to shock
But the world didn’t even have time for me to gather up. As I stretched my hand toward the bridge, wondering if there was a broken spot, I heard a voice from the other side.
“Lope is here! It must have fallen over there!”
“Find it! Even if I ran away, it’s around here!”
“Under…”
When I heard their hideous voices, I couldn’t help but laugh. I think I did something really stupid this time. No matter how much I hated handing over the initiative, the risk was too great.
I wish I could have brought you a day…
“There! There’s something over there!”
“This fuck was very good. Here is it here!”
It’s quick to find. Did you pass out too? Only at times like this, they’re like competent cubs.
I guess I was really sick of it.
“After…”
However, the process was just stupid, and the outcome was not yet known. What future will this action lead to? Because now I don’t know
I spit out the pooled blood in my mouth and stood up scattering my white sword under the exceptionally bright moonlight. It had already happened and now it was time to prove it. Was this really the right decision? Or was it a wrong decision?
“Let’s check it now.”
