Academy’s Genius Swordmaster Chapter 203

203. Jager (3)

#203

The girl’s identity was Asher. Since I saw her from afar and she looked so pretty, I ended up confusing her for a girl. As soon as she released his telekinetic powers, a rain of beasts began to pour down.

“Keuuuuuck!”

“Save me!”

Screams and crash sounds rang out in succession. They were thrown onto wagons, against walls, or on the tips of spears held by soldiers, and were maimed or killed on the spot. People were scattered in confusion after being hit by an unusually heavy rain. Asher’s face turned pale as he belatedly sensed their fall.

“Hey! Slow zone!”

Asher urgently chanted a spell. A hemispherical curtain made of mana widely surrounded the nearby space. The falling speed of the prisoners within the range drastically slowed down. Those who had not yet touched the ground cheered.

“I lived, I lived!”

“You bastards. As soon as you go down…gagging!”

Of course, it was only good up to that point. Sigh! The spear thrown by the tiger guard pierced the relieved weardeer’s chest. The blood that burst out in tears also slowly dripped down. The security chief picked up a new spear and shouted at a volume that shook the city.

“This is a golden opportunity! “Kill all of Jager’s henchmen who are targeting the city!”

“Wow!”

The soldiers followed and cheered. Without any hesitation, they began throwing spear knives or shooting arrows at Jager’s men who were slowly falling. All they could do was struggle in the air, making them good targets for soldiers and mercenaries.

“Kyaaagh! “Shoot, don’t shoot!”

“Surrender, I will surrender!”

The beastmen begged for mercy, but the hands of the Rundalian defenders did not stop. The rain of blood poured down slowly. Ronan, who was watching the world’s most novel massacre, laughed.

“This is my first time seeing something like this in my life.”

“Yes. I know.”

It seemed like there was a lot of stuff piled up. Marya nodded in agreement. Anyway, since they couldn’t just watch, Ronan and the others also joined in.

A loud sound that could not be compared to that of a human rang out sporadically. Ronan and Marya each killed three people, and Adeshan killed five people.

It took about five minutes for all the prisoners to come down to the floor. The majority lost their lives on the way down. Those who barely survived were taken prisoner or executed on the spot.

When the slow zone magic was lifted, the blood drops remaining in the air poured out at the same time. Shoot, the red rain signaled the end of the situation. Ronan questioned Marja as she wiped the blood seeping from her eyes.

“So, what exactly happened?”

“Whoa… I stopped by the Hancheol Mine to secure the available inventory, but those beastmen suddenly attacked. “Do you know these people?”

“Roughly. “I think it would be more accurate to say that they are people I want to know.”

Marya tilted her head at the incomprehensible sound. Ronan briefly relayed the situation with Jager and the precarious situation in the North. Marya’s face crumpled after receiving Secret’s recommendation to withdraw.

“Withdrawal is a bit difficult… If we turn the top now, the damage will be extreme. To the extent that operations are disrupted. “Wouldn’t it be okay if we hired additional mercenaries?”

“Well, that’s fine. “The size of the rebels is bigger than expected.”

Ronan twisted his lips. If Secrit’s explanation is true, then dragging a top in the northern part of the country was similar to a naked beauty walking into an alley full of criminals. She might be able to hold out to a certain extent, but she would eventually be overwhelmed by her numbers and fall into a difficult situation.

‘What if the work is completed very quickly?’

Ronan stroked his chin and sighed. He also did not want the upper part of the caravel to be damaged. Because it is an organization that will be responsible for one axis of the empire’s economy in the future, and because Marya was my friend.

They were in the midst of trying to find a way. Asher’s body floated on the roof of the warehouse. It seemed like they had confirmed that the massacre had come to an end. He flew through the air and soon landed in front of the two people. Ronan greeted calmly.

“hi. Asher.”

“Oh, hello Ronan. “Marya and the student council president… what brings you here?”

“That’s what I want to ask, man. “Why are you here?”

“Well, that is… so…”

Asher hesitated, just looked at what was happening and did not answer. Ronan lightly lifted one of her hands. Asher, startled, backed away from her and shouted.

“Huh! Well, I came to practice. huh!”

“Perform?”

“Ma, the witch said that training to become proficient in ice magic should be done in an environment cold enough to snow. But now it’s summer… and the only place where it snows is in the north…”

Asher’s explanation continued. In short, it was said that they had come to perform ice magic, which was insufficient compared to telekinesis.

Asher, who had been gradually moving north, arrived in Rundalian just an hour ago, and when he heard a commotion, he said that he had helped because some beastmen who looked like thieves were attacking the top of the human race. The witch’s voice came from the vajra in his coat pocket.

【It is true!】

Judging by the large backpack and the way he spoke, it didn’t seem like he was lying. As I live, I experience all kinds of coincidences. Ronan muttered this in a whisper and lightly pulled one of Asher’s cheeks.

“Still, man, if you were going to come to the north, you should have told me in advance. “It would have been nice if we had come together.”

“I’m sorry… I decided to do this long after vacation.”

“But there’s nothing to be sorry about. Thanks to you, it ended without anyone getting hurt. good job.”

Ronan took his hand off the cheek and gently ruffled Asher’s hair. He wondered what would have happened if he hadn’t brought this bastard from Nimburton.

A genius who works hard. Plus, he has a kind heart. Jade was timid to the point of frustration, but that was no longer a flaw. Except in just one area. Marya approached him with a grin and hugged him tightly.

“that’s right. I survived thanks to our cutie. “How do I repay this favor?”

“Wow…! Oh, what a blessing. It’s okay, Marja.”

The two people looked like a younger brother and older sister, with whom they had a very special relationship. It was good to be close, but it wasn’t a very desirable situation for Asher, who had to aim for something more.

‘That head.’

I felt like I could repay them for being indebted to me. Ronan waited for Marya’s hug to end and called Asher.

“Asher. “Follow me for a moment.”

“Uh, huh? Where are you going?”

“Stop being noisy and come here.”

Ronan, who was forced to walk shoulder to shoulder with him, started walking. Ronan, who was entering an increasingly dark place, stopped only when he reached the back of a wagon. Asher, sensing her instinctive foreboding, stuttered and asked.

“Ro, Ronan. Come on?”

“Asher. Listen carefully. In my view, now is the opportunity.”

“What, this is an opportunity…?”

“Cuteness alone has its limits. If you really like it, you should confront it as a man. And the way I see it, now is the time.”

Ronan said, massaging one of Asher’s shoulders. Asher, who did not understand what she meant, shook her head left and right.

“W-I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

“You idiot. This is Marya’s story. “You like him.”

“omg···!”

Asher took a deep breath and froze. His ears, exposed through his hair, were turning bright red. Ronan glanced at the outside of the carriage and continued.

“If you really want to get along with Marya, from now on you have to show your attraction to the opposite s*x. If you are satisfied and relieved with your current relationship, you will face hell. Do you understand what I’m saying?”

“What do you mean hell?”

“Okay, let me give you an example. Something very terrible. You came to the club after class as usual, but the door that should have been closed was slightly open. You instinctively felt something and put your eyes through the gap in the door. But f*ck, Marja and Braum are kissing inside there. “And that too with a really deep kiss where we check the health of each other’s teeth with our tongues.”

“W-what is that…!”

“Use your imagination, Asher. You keep staring at that hellish scene, unable to take your eyes off it. The two people who didn’t notice you came will continue with their next move. He sucked my ears and kissed my neck. And the hand goes lower and lower… Oh shit, that sucks.”

Ronan, who was describing a hopeless future, spat on the floor. I felt bad because I was connected to the ugly Braum. Asher, who was completely pale, cried and asked.

“Why, why are you saying that?”

Even though it was a simple family, Asher’s heart was already a rag. Without realizing it, I substituted Ronan, not Braum, as Marya’s opponent, and the fact that she pictured it in her head was an even more fatal blow. Judging from Marya’s behavior that he had seen so far, it was a very possible story.

“Asher. “Do you mind if Marya becomes another guy’s girl?”

“Ah… Well, that’s up to Marya to decide…”

“That’s natural, man. I’m asking your opinion right now. “Do you think I’ll come to my senses if I give you another example?”

“Oh, no! don’t do it!”

Asher shook his head vigorously. The story just a moment ago seemed to have come as a huge shock. He, who had been muttering something to himself, muttered softly.

“···no. Absolutely, I don’t like it.”

“Okay Asher. That’s right. “Now let me tell you what to do.”

Ronan, who put his arm around Asher again, whispered something. Asher’s face heated up. Soon they finished talking and went to the front of the carriage. In the distance, Marya and Adeshan were having a conversation.

“How far did you go? “Tell me honestly, sister.”

“Uh, to what extent…? “I haven’t done anything yet.”

“Hmm, just by looking at your eyes, I think they probably kissed. “Just trust me and try to commit it just once?”

“Well, like that…”

Marya was shaking her shoulders and giggling, wondering what was so funny. She bowed her head as if she had committed a sin. Ronan shrugged her shoulders at her incomprehensible sound.

‘What’s so exciting?’

It seemed like women also had their own fun things to do. Ronan soon caught his attention and patted Asel on the back. He, who was very intimidated, shouted in a voice so loud that it seemed a bit excessive.

“Ma, ma, ma, mar!”

“huh?”

Marya and Adeshan turned their heads at the same time. Asher’s face was already flushed, a color not much different from his own hair.

I really wanted to run away, but I couldn’t because Ronan was behind me with his hand on the hilt of his sword. He walked with long strides and stopped in front of Marya.

“What’s going on, cutie?”

“Nothing else, you said you were looking for more mercenaries, right?”

“Yes, I did. Why is that?”

“Well, that’s… so. that is···.”

Marya tilted her head. Somehow Asher seemed different from usual. He was just sitting there, taking deep breaths, unable to get his important words out.

‘no. As expected, that’s all for me.’

As I was about to turn around after looking around, the story Ronan told me a moment ago flashed in my mind. Club, half-open door. Marya with someone else. A hopeless situation where your life seems to shorten just by imagining it. Asher finally stopped taking her deep breaths, closed her eyes tightly and opened her mouth.

“···I will protect you. “Can I accompany you with your superiors?”

“yes.”

Ronan, who was watching, clenched his fists. Although the voice was the size of an ant, it was clearly audible. Moreover, because she did not stutter even as she spoke, she was conveying a feeling of joy that was comparable to that when she cut off Darman’s head. Marya, who was blinking in her spot, smiled softly.

“Oh, my cutie is protecting me? Why all of a sudden?”

“Hehe, training can be done anywhere in the North… I just want to do that! Wow, it may not be perfect, but…”

“No, that’s enough. “Is this really reassuring?”

Suddenly, Marya came in, interrupting the conversation, and grabbed Asher’s cheek with both hands. The small face turned bright red. Ronan, who was watching the scene alongside Ade Shan, opened her mouth.

“I hope I do better this time. “Isn’t that right?”

“Yes. I know. “You two look really good together.”

“Anyway, I hope those two will stop being tactless and start dating soon. “I want it because I’m frustrated.”

“Notice… Yes, that’s right.”

Adeshan glanced at the side of his face and sighed. I now understand why people drink when they are frustrated.

Ronan, who had passed a big task, stretched himself. Now he was worried about what to do and how to do it. I needed to get rid of the leadership of Jager’s group before going to Heiran, but I couldn’t think of a way to do it.

If you just attacked them, they would all run away, and assassinating them was impossible because their whereabouts were unknown.

“hmm?”

At that time, I saw prisoners kneeling in chains in a corner. They were Jager’s subordinates who were taken prisoner. They were groaning from the pain of the fall and lamenting their situation.

“Damn it… Master Jager is going to kill us. “I can’t believe I’m failing again this time…”

“First think about surviving here. If you hold on just a little longer, your colleagues will definitely come.”

“Probably not a little. “Almost all headquarters personnel have been dispatched.”

Ronan raised his eyebrows. Judging from the conversation, it seemed that the headquarters was surprisingly not that far away. Suddenly, a flash of light passed through Ronan’s mind. He snapped his fingers without realizing it and opened his mouth.

“senior. “I had a good idea.”

“huh?”

“A way to infiltrate their stronghold. But the role of a senior is very important.”

“My role? What?”

Ronan briefly explained what he planned. Indeed, it was a method that could not have been attempted unless it were her. Her Ade Shan’s eyes widened.

“Hey, are you going to take control of my mind and go all the way to the base? “Because we were taken prisoner?”

“yes. “There is no way to infiltrate as surely as this.”

“Yes, that’s true, but as you know, my skills are not yet good enough to control people…”

Adeshan muttered in an uncertain voice. I succeeded for the first time last night, but it was nothing more than a combination of coincidences.

However, I could not express the opinion that it would be unreasonable. In all her years of travel with Ronan, she has seen countless times what was once thought impossible become reality. Like Asher, who stopped stuttering her words a moment ago. She took a deep breath and nodded her head.

“no. “I have to do it.”

“great. “Then let’s get started right away.”

Ronan first asked for understanding from the Were Tiger security leader. He was asking inhumanely whether it would be okay to conduct biological experiments on several prisoners. After watching Ronan and his group in action, he readily agreed.

“If I could repay the favor with something like that, it would be fine. Please don’t let me fall behind.”

“It’s nice because it’s refreshing.”

Ronan shook hands with the leader. Somehow, it seemed like this tiger would be stronger than Jager. Now all that remained was to choose a prisoner who would guide them to their home base. Adeshan said.

“Who would be better?”

“hmm. “It would be easier if he had a certain level of status.”

The more prestigious the organization was, the easier it would be to infiltrate. However, it was doubtful whether these furry dogs would obey such facts. I was wondering if I should at least pull out each person’s fingernails. Suddenly, Werebear, who was kneeling at the front, shouted in a loud voice.

“Be cursed, you inferior and filthy humans! The North belongs to the beastmen! Even when this Umkhano centurion dies, he will bite your heads off!”

The voice was so loud that all the attention of those around him was focused. Ronan and Adeshan looked at each other at the same time. He looked back at the guy named Umcano and laughed.

“It’s decided.”
