Academy Squints, but is not dark-Episode 248
Chapter 248
248fury. Invasion of Carpathia(4)
Kudududududu-!
thud!
“Ugh!”
“It hurts…….”
Children who hit their heads on the ceiling of the carriage let out pain-filled groans..
It was natural that the ride comfort was not good..
What we are riding now is not a luxury carriage, but a wagon used by merchants for business..
A wagon arranged by Charon to transport all Annwood Academy students..
The sight of hundreds of carriages lined up at the parade ground was truly spectacular..
rattle!
“Wow!”
“I'm flying! Someone please catch me!”
Of course, there was no minister inside the carriage. Every time the carriage shook violently, the children bounced between the ceiling and the floor..
Because the cart was running like it was flying..
Oh, I think I just saw a student flying... … Maybe it's my mistake?
‘Well, the instructors will save you..’
The rising dust, the horses and carriages following each other, the sky and earth shaking every time the carriage shakes..
I was lost in thought as I watched the scenery outside the carriage whizzing by..
‘There are two important things in this episode.’
First, use the power of [Predation] on the named monster to obtain four skills..
You can tell by looking at the skill that grows rapidly just by being beaten by Luna, but in this game, a system is being built in which the skill level increases at some point..
The faster you can acquire skills and the more skills you have, the better..
Currently, I have the [Predation] skill that allows me to obtain one of the skills that a named monster has..
In this episode, as many as four named monsters that are not usually seen appear, so there was no better hunting ground than this one..
And the second most important thing in this episode.
‘Catching the Marvell family, the 6th level demon that no one has been able to catch..’
[Predation] skill is used to gain one more skill, but.
‘There's something hidden.’
A shield that activates when the Marvel family's blood reaches 1 and they are in danger of death..
The shield amount is a whopping 10,000..
1This is not a number designed to be captured during a round of play. It's a number set to be captured only during multiple playthroughs..
‘The problem is that even during the multiple playthroughs, no user caught the Marvell family..’
2Now, in the middle of the chapter, telling me to do 10,000 damage was practically telling me not to break..
That's why most users assumed this.
‘'Maybe they were trying to make it reappear in a later episode?'.
‘But no.’
I've played the game tens of thousands of times, but I haven't seen any signs of the Marvel family, let alone their tails..
Billions of plays, including those played by users around the world.
However, the fact that the Marvel family did not appear anywhere means that they died somewhere unknown to the user.…….
‘The only chance for the user to kill the Marvell family is in the Carpathian Invasion episode. I guess that's what it means.’
Of course, there was a possibility that the production team forgot about the existence of the devil called the Marvel family and did not include it in the latter half of the story..
But the chances of that happening were slim..
‘If I had planned to do that in the first place, I wouldn't have done something this bothersome..’
The moment the Marvel family's health reaches 1, a 10,000 shield is deployed and all characters recover their action power..
You are given the opportunity to attack the Marvell family once..
The production team created a ‘gimmick’. A gimmick just for the Marvel family.
‘The devil called Marvell, who worked so hard to create, does not appear in the second half.?’
The reason was simple. Because he died.
From the production team's perspective, the Marvel family was set to meet its end during the invasion of Carpathia..
However, the Marvel family appears stronger in the latter part of the story.?
It was ridiculous..
In other words, there must have been a 'hidden piece' set up that would be opened by breaking 10,000 shields and capturing the Marvell family..
The problem is that I can't predict where or how this hidden piece will lead..
At the same time, it means that a new path to conquer the final boss is opened..
‘It also means that the reward will be huge..’
How big of a reward did they create such a difficult gimmick to give??
‘Holy sword? Vast wealth? Either that or an item for defeating the final boss.?’
Just thinking about it made me drool..
Anyway, I used [Predation] to get free skills and achieve achievements that no one could achieve..
An episode with nothing to lose.
‘There will be an invasion of Carpathia..
Of course, my grand plan to catch the Mabel family is.
“All carrots… … Oh, it might be the last carrot…….”
……It seems like it's already gone.
Yes. A prerequisite for capturing the Marvell family, Leger's growth.
It was completely ruined..
I was lost in thought as I watched Leger chewing a carrot while crying..
‘It's partly because the skills I received from Adonis are trash... … In the end, I didn't get much information..’
The reason why Leger hesitates to 'kill', which is believed to be the reason why critical hits do not explode..
I had quite a few conversations with Leger under the pretext of psychotherapy, but I couldn't even get a clue..
All I gained was various information and knowledge about ‘carrots’ that I didn’t even want to know..
It was a situation where I had no choice but to sigh..
“Haaa…….”
“what? Why are you sighing so uncharacteristically of you? The battlefield was scary.?”
Did that image bother you? Luna asked right away..
“To some extent, yes. Are you not afraid, Miss Luna??”
“Well, I'm scared too. Still, it’s an opportunity to become stronger. I've been practicing since first grade. I actually think I'm lucky?”
“Hehe, Miss Luna is strong. It would be great if someone could follow suit..”
Tingling-!
Did he notice my gaze? Leger hid himself in the box..
I can't believe I have to catch the Mabel family with a sunfish rabbit like that. Her eyes are dark.
It was when Leger was poking the box inside..
“hey! don't bother my friend!”
“Hehe, Miss Luna, think carefully. This is a real situation now. If you can't fight in this situation... … You know what the result will be.?”
“…….”
Annwood Academy announced that it would replace midterm exams with dispatches and calculate scores..
But instead of fighting hard, he just runs away and hides like Leger.?
It was perfect to get a failing grade..
“You will probably fail even in the advanced class. Is that what Miss Luna wants??”
“……But you can't force them to fight..”
“Hehe, do you have a secret plan??”
“secret?”
“Yes, a great secret solution to M. Leger's fears..”
Only then did Leger stick his head above the box. The fact that the hair on the top of my head changed into the shape of a question mark is a bonus..
Luna asked with hopeful eyes..
“What is the secret??”
A huge secret plan prepared for the weak Leger. That's right……!
“I'll kill you first..”
“huh?”
“Because I'm scared, I kill him first. Before the devil can do his tricks, send him to hell.”
“…….”
Wow!
Luna slapped me on the forehead..
“What kind of bullshit is that?!”
No, you're right! All you have to do is kill them first.!
If you get rid of the fearful being, there will be no reason to be afraid.!
“……Yes, I will kill you first too. If I keep going like this, I don’t think I’ll be able to live up to my expulsion.!”
Luna started stepping on my back. With a contemptuous expression.
Oh, I'm starting to feel better..
It's not because I'm a pervert. It's because of the joy that skill proficiency is increasing..
Suddenly, I saw the hair on Leger's head drooping..
Is it a shame??
‘When I see things like that, it seems like I have a desire to change.…….’
When a situation arises, are you too busy running away? I don't even know why.
But there will come a time when that child will have to make a choice..
Either give up everything and run away like you have been doing up until now, or.
‘Save your friends with blood on your hands.’
If Leger's attitude doesn't change until the end, I can't help it..
Either use it moderately and throw it away, or use it as a tool for Luna's awakening..
I was thinking of doing one of two things.
Cruel? Can not help it. What I'm doing now.
Because it's that kind of game.
“die! die! You perverted bastard!”
Look. Isn’t Luna still stepping on me as if she’s going to kill me?.
Stepping on a colleague. It was such a cruel game..
rattle-.
It was a time when I was looking at my gradually decreasing HP and thinking about 'How can I ask for Luna to forgive me?'.
The cart stopped moving..
“Everyone get down! Run to the next carriage and move to it.!”
“Yes!?”
“Come out quickly! One o'clock is urgent!”
Oh, now that I think about it, I forgot two things..
It takes two days to reach the Carpathians, and.
Unlike games, you have to move with your own body..
* * *
Riding a wagon, running on foot, eating and sleeping, crawling(?).
Two days have passed quickly..
I didn't know it in the game, but when I move it with my own body, there is no pain like this..
The carts that were like wild horses soon got used to it and more and more children started sleeping..
rattle-.
“Everyone get down!”
“eww… … what. Are you running again??”
“Haam… … How long will it take until the next wagon?.”
The children got out of the carriage one by one, chatting one by one..
But it didn't take long for the kids to shut up..
“that… … Right?”
“……that's right. The walls of Carpathia.”
What first caught the children's sight was the huge, sturdy castle wall..
To be exact, the wall on one side was completely collapsed..
Inside, a cloud of dust rose occasionally along with noise..
Kugu Palace-.
The children swallowed their saliva when they felt a small tremor..
“Even though the distance is this far, I can feel the echo all the way here.?”
“What the hell is going on inside?…….”
“Ooh, we're not going in there either.?”
It was a time when the children backed away without realizing it..
shouted the instructor on horseback..
“2, 3The grade heads inside with the instructors. First year students are to wait here with the soldiers..”
1Haknyeon is not given a chance to enter the castle..
The children sighed in relief when they realized that fact..
Teron stepped forward and asked:.
“What is our mission?”
“Security, and convoy of the injured. We will carry the wounded soldiers from inside to the gate, so you can escort them here. The commander will be here soon, so ask him for more details..”
“Wait! Who is the commander??”
“……Just wait and you will find out. 2nd and 3rd grade! move with me right now!”
2, 3Grades and instructors started running towards the castle..
The children who remained like luggage stamped their feet..
“It's okay to stay like this?”
“Who is the commander??”
“I don't know who it is, but I hope it's someone competent.…….”
Unlike the kids, I was leisurely. Because I knew who the commander was..
1The commander who will be in charge of this place along with the school year..
‘He was a teacher named ‘Dargon’ and a 6th circle wizard..
‘What a great teacher. He even causes great damage to one of the demons..’
When the first demon appears, a grateful teacher reduces your health by half..
It was a time when I thought of his brilliant skill effects..
“Everyone calm down! Now that I'm here, the devils are nothing!”
It was a voice I knew well..
But it was also a voice that shouldn't be here..
“……President?”
Yes. A man standing proudly on a skinny horse.
It was Dwenor, the president of Annwood Academy..
……why is he here?
