The Academy's Barbarian-Chapter 210

5.
After all tests are done.
Engineers observed the shattered magic armor and exchanged opinions..
“My head is completely crushed.”
“Still, the safety device worked properly..”
“With this, you won't have to worry about breaking the wearer's head..”
When the conversation between engineers was in full swing.
Ulan took off his sorcery armor, approached them, and gently lowered his head..
“sorry to break.”
It was an apology for breaking Dillia's magic armor. Engineers, on the other hand, waved their hands like they didn't care..
“No, thanks.”
“Because no one was hurt.”
“Also, thanks to your cooperation, the inspection items have been filled, so research funds will come out soon. If it's broken, just fix it then..”
If Ulan hadn't cooperated in the first place, the Magic Armor wouldn't have been able to pass the examination..
So even if one was destroyed, the engineers didn't really care..
“there, more…….”
“After cutting the magic earlier.”
“You approached Cadet Dillia as if you were teleporting. What the hell is that??”
Three pairs of eyes shining with curiosity.
In response, Ulan told the story of the 'Master's Realm'. Then the engineers all burst out in amazement with astonished faces..
“That, that's the area I've only heard of!”
“It's my first time seeing it in person!”
They can't hide their surprised faces.
It's a natural reaction. Masters did not exist in the kingdom of Endrak..
The engineers, whose eyes twinkled, suddenly exchanged some kind of conversation among themselves, and then spoke to Ulan in a cautious tone..
“Hey, if you have time later…….”
“May I ask for your cooperation again??”
“There are a few things I want to test regarding the master's realm.!”
It's an offer with no reason to refuse.
Because I really liked Ulando Magic Armor. In response, she readily nodded her head..
“okay. Any help.”
“wow thank you!”
Engineers smiled happily.
After that conversation, Ulan stared blankly at the sorcerer armor he had just worn..
‘why in the past life…….’
there was no such thing?
If there was, it would have been absolutely helpful..
While thinking that, Noah suddenly approached and asked if he had read Ulan's thoughts..
“Last time there was a magic armor.”
“what? but…….”
“never seen it?”
Ulan nodded silently..
No matter how much I recalled my past memories, I had never seen a magic armor. Then Noah shrugged her shoulders and replied..
“I bet it is. Because the magic armor was scrapped before the Abyssal War even started..”
“it was discarded? why?”
The reason was simple.
This is because the war has intensified due to the horsepower-powered train invented by Professor Melt..
Afterwards, engineers who feared that confusion would intensify if magic armor was added to repeated wars, chose to dispose of it..
“oh well, that's how it happened.”
Ulan nodded as if he understood Noah's explanation. Then he smacked his lips with a slightly regretful expression..
“Still, it's a waste to throw it away.”
The same is true of Noah..
Because it was clear that securing magic armor would be of great help in the battle against the Abyss Lord..
In particular, the first rank of the monarch.
It would be perfect against the King of the Reanimated Corpses, the Lord of the Undead..
‘I'll be able to stop the curse.’
The Undead Lord and his followers use powerful curses through physical contact..
Since this was a difficult curse that could not be cleansed even with divine power, the only defense and solution was to avoid contact with the body in the first place..
‘On the other hand, magic armor is different..’
Magic armor is an armor that covers the entire body from head to toe. So, if you have that, you have the advantage of being able to fight against the Lord of the Undead without worrying about the curse..
‘but the problem is…….’
Even in the original work, I tried to get it several times, but it failed every time.
Recalling the memories of the past, Noah felt frustrated and involuntarily let out a deep sigh..
By the time the conversation was over.
Ulan looked at the magic armor again. She was with an expression that she wanted to get her hands on somehow.
then.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard from behind..
The girl approached, walking sloppily as if stepping on snow, and suddenly hugged Ulan's waist..
“lol.”
Satisfied laughter soon to be heard.
It was Pertisia..
“what are you doing?”
“I just want to do this.”
Pertishia shyly smiles.
With her face pressed against Ulan's back, she immediately revealed the reason for doing this..
“Again, this is fair.”
“fair?”
“Dillia did too..”
Why is Dillia here??
Ulan tilted his head..
As if I didn't understand what she meant. Then Per Tisha replied with her dazzling smile..
“It's okay if you don't know. Ulan just needs to be hugged by me like this..”
he's a weird guy.
Ulan burst out laughing and turned around, as if telling him to do whatever he wanted. Because of her light weight, I could barely feel her weight..
However, unlike Ulan, there were people who couldn't tolerate Perticia's actions..
“what are you doing now!”
That's Ybela Elead.
Belatedly confirming Perticia's sudden action, she screamed with a reddened face. Perticia, on the other hand, responded in a nonchalant tone..
“I'm hugging Ulan?”
“not leaving right now?!”
“ugh, i don't like it.”
Perticia endured while hugging Ulan tightly. Like a cicada clinging to an old tree.
However, she couldn't overcome Ybela's jealous power, and she was eventually forced to fall away from Uhlan..
“We will resume our tour now..”
While the two girls were arguing.
Professor Melt resumed tour guidance..
This is because there are still many scheduled events. Accordingly, the Ulan party left the plume workshop and moved to the place where the next schedule was scheduled..
6.
At that time, Eastern Jungle.
This gigantic forest bordering several countries, including the Principality of Arpen, the Kingdom of Sern, and the Kingdom of Endrak, is one of the famous demon landscapes..
That's right, because it's well-known as a place teeming with all sorts of monsters, and especially as a habitat for dangerous monsters..
In other words, a place that is only normal when there are few people.
But now, the eastern jungle was crowded with dozens of people. The sorcerers in the gray robes were the Abyssal Worshipers..
Most of the worshipers were near middle age, but there was one particularly young worshiper..
“Eh.”
girl with dark blue hair.
Estelle Outra.
He is the chief disciple of 'Regens Autra', the head of the Abyss Worshipers. And he was the one who was in charge of this mission..
‘Although I came by Master's instruction,…….’
Estelle's mission is to obliterate Sven Isaac..
However, I was a bit suspicious.
Contrary to what I had heard, Sven Isaac, whom I had glimpsed last time, did not seem to be a threat from the abyss..
Most of all, I couldn't understand why they would do such a thing while provoking the Holy Land. However, Estelle's question did not last long..
‘Still, I should do my job right.’
This mission is a kind of test.
Her mentor, Regens Autra, is now old. Unless you receive the grace of the abyss, you will step down as the leader..
‘then…….’
the place belongs to you.
Estelle is a worshiper of strength and talent..
If you succeed in this mission, it is like proving your qualifications as a leader..
At this, she set aside her doubts and recalled the plan for this mission..
‘First of all, you must join the family of immortals..’
Afterwards, they surround Sulpern with the Undead Legion they brought. And to annihilate all existence of Sulfern before support arrives..
‘The most important thing about this mission is that you only have to touch Sulfern..’
It is best not to touch other kingdoms..
In particular, it is better to avoid Endrark Kingdom unconditionally. It was an ally that had maintained a close relationship with the Holy Kingdom since long ago..
If you accidentally touch it, it will stimulate the Holy Kingdom even more..
‘You have to avoid it somehow.’
Recently, the Abyss Worshipers tried to annihilate the priests of the Holy Kingdom who were investigating Sven Isaac, as well as the paladins who contacted them..
But for some reason, the mission failed. And as a result, it ended up only attracting the attention of Seongguk..
‘So this mission…….’
It's likely to be a race against time.
Before the Holy Kingdom intervenes in earnest, the damage can be reduced only by completing all missions and returning to the base..
When I checked the plan like that.
“Estelle.”
someone called her.
Middle-aged man with a large scar on his face.
Although not related by blood, he is a worshiper that Estelle follows like an uncle. He revealed her business by calling her in her blunt tone..
“It seems that the family of immortals has arrived..”
“Yes, I have to go meet you..”
Estelle smiled brightly..
In fact, I already knew it before I even said it..
In the heart of the jungle, I felt the magic of the abyss burning like a flame..
some time after that.
From afar, beings with unique appearances appeared. Twelve beings with different shapes. They were the immortals..
Upon their appearance, Estelle and other worshipers unknowingly swallowed dry saliva..
‘……It's different from Lacus-sama's family.’
Howling Eye of the Abyss.
Lacus is the 6th rank lord.
On the other hand, the immortals belonged to the first rank of the monarch, the lord of the undead. It was not strange that the class felt different..
But then.
‘uh?’
Estelle blinked her eyes..
For an instant, I felt a strange sense of incongruity. Before long, she grasped the identity of the discomfort..
‘what? Why all of a sudden…….’
The immortals suddenly stopped in their seats, keeping a distance from the worshipers. I thought so until now, but what surprised me was what happened next..
thud! thump!
Relatives kneeling on the floor.
They bowed their heads toward the heart of the jungle. When I was taken aback by the arrogant and high-handed attitude that was quite different from the attitude of the past..
“……!”
I got goosebumps for an instant..
It was because the moment I saw the center of the jungle toward which the heads of my family members were heading, I felt an insane chill..
how long has it been like that?
Suddenly, with a feeling of intimidation on the shoulders, someone from the center walked this way..
It was a human of normal physique..
A figure wearing a dark red robe and holding a staff made of unknown bones in one hand.
Strangely, however, the scenery around him changed rapidly with each step he took..
‘me, that……!’
Estelle's eyes were filled with astonishment..
It was because the green bushes withered away and were broken, and the sturdy trees quickly turned into dead trees that had lost their vitality..
As he walked, the jungle gradually lost its life. As if just existing takes away all the life force around you.
Meanwhile, as he kept approaching, he stopped at the place where the immortals bowed their heads..
With ninety-nine steps left.
Then, the sprout at Estelle's feet rotted and crumbled in an instant. Seeing this scene, Estelle trembled like an aspen tree..
‘Ah ah ah ah ah!’
It was only then that I realized.
What is the identity of the red robe? Just when I finally guessed the reason for the unknown feeling of intimidation, the immortals all shouted in unison..
【Worshipers of the deep!】
【Worship the King of All Deaths!】
In the first place, there is only one existence that the arrogant and self-righteous immortals can bow their heads to..
It was only their owner..
Asteban Urbatra Modem.
1st in the ranks of monarchs. The pinnacle of the Abyssal Lords, with all death and immortals under his command. Estelle and the Abyssal Cultists immediately put their heads to the ground..
However, there was one question.
‘I haven't heard of this…….’
From what I heard before, I heard that only the Immortals would cooperate. But why did the Lord of the Undead appear here??
However, the doubts quickly disappeared..
It was because all the thoughts had completely disappeared under the weight of Asteban's intimidation. When that silent time continued.
saaaaa!
The wind blew, and the magical energy of the abyss that had been burning around all at once disappeared. She was actually sucked into Asteban's body, but.
After consuming all the mana in an instant.
he finally opened his mouth.
【―lack.】
Asteban's word as a signal.
The immortals shouted loudly..
【devote more horsepower!】
【for our king and army.】
【prove your allegiance!】
At that cry, Estelle and other Abyss worshipers bowed their heads even more..
Then, they immediately rose from their seats and started their own actions. In order to prepare the magic of the abyss to offer to Asteban.
