Episode 214. The Last Teaching (1)
Kwaaaaang!-
A huge roar echoed from the middle of the mountain.
The shockwave uproots trees and splits the ground.
It was as if hundreds of large bombs had exploded, but the air around it was very cold.
Kuguaang!-
The same shock wave occurred once more.
With just one swing of the sword, the ground shook as if a giant had struck it with his hammer.
A huge gust of wind blew through, destroying structures the size of buildings.
An attack filled with murderous intent.
Jenny Chainsilver is already prepared to kill her opponent.
“Is that all?”
However, the silver-haired woman who was his opponent easily blocked the sword strike.
She had an indifferent expression on her face as she took the hit with a red aura on her ordinary sword.
“Ugh!”
Jenny, feeling frustrated at being blocked so easily, pulled her sword back.
Then the sword began to glow blue.
At that moment, a semicircle was drawn at incredible speed.
As if you were jumping by increasing your momentum by crouching, the sword speed increases as you swing it forward while leaning backward.
The rapid sword strikes come in over a hundred times per second.
The air screams with movements that easily surpass the speed of sound.
The blue trail drawn at an invisible speed looked like an endless meteor shower falling from the sky.
“….”
But this time, the woman was fending off all of those attacks.
Jenny saw it clearly before her eyes as she swung her sword.
Why?
I have no intention of ever letting you see it.
It’s not that he’s afraid that his opponent is stronger than him.
But why?
“What have you been doing all this time?”
Kaang!-
The woman who had been blocking all the swords deflected them by swinging her sword.
Jenny’s head tilted backwards as if it was about to fall under the tremendous force.
Jenny, who was defenseless due to her posture being disrupted, was hit by the woman’s long shot.
“Kuuuk!”
The palm pressed directly against the abdomen.
The muscles that had been bunched up in my stomach shook like waves, and the shock was transmitted to my insides.
Jenny had to vomit blood from her mouth due to the shock that interfered with her vital organs.
And then it flew several dozen meters and crashed into a cliff.
“Ugh… Ugh…”
The rain has stopped.
Still, my body feels heavy.
My hands keep shaking.
I felt like I was carrying a weight of lead on my body.
What is the reason?
Jenny looked straight ahead and thought.
But every time I see the person I’m facing, my mind goes blank.
It felt like my body was instinctively telling me not to do anything.
“I don’t feel any will from you.”
A woman approaches, wielding a sword that glows with a red aura.
In fact, Jenny knew why her hands were shaking.
Because the woman standing before his eyes right now is none other than his mother, Leila Chainsilver.
`Why on earth are you doing this? You swore it back then.`
Jenny had been comforting herself.
Thanks to the Spirit King Shaikhar, I was able to hear in advance what would happen on the fifth day of the Magic Banquet.
The most shocking news was the moving corpse.
A zombie soldier resurrected by RE-Union. I’ve fought them before, but this opponent is on a different level.
-Leila Bloodia. Commonly known as the ‘Queen of Blood’. A genius among geniuses who inherited all of the power of the Blood Dragon Muzak.
– A woman who began to shake up the troubled times 30 years ago, starting with an overwhelming victory in a tactical demonstration at the Magic Banquet.
-Her power was enough to annihilate the army of a country, and she was a monster who single-handedly annihilated a unit of demons that had gone mad.
-However, after that activity, she left the front lines. She eventually became the wife of a family and began living an ordinary life.
– It is suggested that if he had remained active, he would have become the greatest hero of the empire.
Regardless, she was a very formidable opponent.
If you look closely, he boasts strength and experience that can be called legendary.
Even the King of Talema is no match for her.
Even if you become a zombie and become weak, your strength is still great.
`But.`
Yet Jenny declared that she would take charge of it herself.
It’s not without reason.
Because the reason why that zombie appeared was none other than himself.
`My mother died… It’s all my fault.`
The events of that time are still vivid.
My mother died after engaging in combat with an unidentified lycanthrope.
If it had been original, mother might have won.
When I think about my mother’s strength during my active years, it’s actually strange that I lost.
But Jenny made a big mistake.
He activated the Silver Age to help his mother, but because he misadjusted the output, everyone’s ankles were frozen.
Eventually, the mother, unable to move, was stabbed to death with an awl.
‘I have to stop it.’
If it weren’t for me at that time, my mother wouldn’t have died in vain.
If that were the case, there would be no need to revive as a zombie and use it against others.
Since everyone understood the situation, Jenny decided to deal with Leila.
However, the opponent is a monster.
It can never be taken down without some kind of support or variable.
And zombies clearly have weaknesses.
The point is that as the driving force that makes something move decreases, its power also gradually weakens.
‘The driving force that is regularly injected into the body. It holds on until it runs out.’
Then the body returns to the earth.
They can never fight for long.
Even when you use force, you are consuming that driving force, so you can’t even exert excessive force.
The longer the battle, the more advantageous it is for this side.
[80%]
A blizzard raged.
A snow storm, like a giant snow dragon roaring from its mouth, began to sweep across the mountain.
Jenny’s eyes, which had activated the Silver Age, glowed blue.
At that sight, Leila’s hands and feet began to tremble involuntarily, and red blood began to swirl throughout her body.
“As expected, you have similar powers to me.”
The power of the blood dragon and the power of the snow dragon.
The two opposing forces began to resonate with each other as if they were going to devour each other.
Blood that corrodes everything and the cold that freezes everything.
The two attributes engraved on each sword made them as sharp as dragon’s teeth.
“Okay, come in.”
“…!!”
Jenny, with a cold aura surrounding her body, charged towards Leila.
At the sight of Jenny accelerating and approaching, freezing the floor, Leila spread one leg behind her and took a stance to draw her sword.
Chiriririk!-
The entire floor froze under the impact of Jenny’s rush.
Leila looked away, surprised to see that the ground had turned into a skating rink.
The sight was clearly visible.
Now is your chance.
Leila is left defenseless as the ground freezes.
`Huh…?`
When Jenny saw that sight, something flashed through her mind at incredible speed.
A scene from the past where the floor was frozen due to a mistake of his own and no one could move.
Because of that, the mother died after being stabbed by a monster’s claw.
“…!”
Jenny’s rush slowed down as a nightmare suddenly occurred to her.
Freeze the floor and then stab the chest.
My body trembled involuntarily in a situation so similar to that time.
It was hard to even breathe because my lungs felt blocked.
All senses important for combat were instantly blown away.
The guilt that had settled in my heart was screaming, “Don’t you have a conscience?”
“ah…!”
A whirlpool of blood swirled before my eyes.
My legs couldn’t move, but I could swing my sword, so the bloody sword energy shot up in an instant.
Jenny raised her sword to try to stop it, but it was already too late.
Because it has already been swallowed up by the red waves.
“Cough!”
A red, gigantic slash that looks like an abyssal monster.
It stretched across the frozen ground, completely cutting through the cliff.
The cliff, which was as tall as a high-rise building, collapsed in an instant due to the powerful force, and Jenny, who had been blown all the way there, was buried under the debris of the cliff.
Kwaaaaah!-
The noise caused by the impact is transmitted.
Jenny ended up lying down, using the cliff debris as her bed and blanket.
Blood flows from wounds all over his body.
When I tried to get up, blood would burst out of my mouth and my vision would appear red because of the blood flowing to my head.
It was only because Seolryong’s magical power protected it that it could end like this.
‘Why on earth…’
Why did you suddenly hesitate?
Why did I miss the opportunity?
The answer was there without me having to think too much.
Nightmares don’t go away easily.
Once you stick to it, it will stick with you for life until the moment you die.
It’s like a delicately engraved scar.
Just as the wound can be painful even with a slight touch, the scar also reacts easily to light stimulation.
Even in battle, the pain is equal for everyone.
It’s like falling down in the middle of an important match with a broken ankle and robbing your opponent of a chance.
‘As expected, the past is…’
It doesn’t disappear.
But I had to get up again.
I swore to my friends that I would take him down… What the hell am I doing?
“Just give up.”
Leila, clad in a crimson sword, approached.
He said, looking down at Jenny with a sharp expression.
“There is no business for those who have no will to fight.”
Those words made my heart flutter.
It was as if my mother was giving me serious advice, I thought I was going crazy.
But I bit my lip and stood up. I raised both my legs, groaning.
At that moment, a crimson slash passed by Jenny.
The light of the deliberately shining slash passed through the air and reached the mountains on the horizon.
Kookoo gugu goong!-
The mountain that was hit directly by the blast was instantly destroyed.
The mountain that had stood there towering over the place had evaporated, leaving only traces of its roots.
I could tell that it wasn’t an empty promise that she had powers rivaling those of the nation.
“I can sense the fear and hesitation inside you.”
“….”
“It’s not that I don’t understand. Everyone experiences pain.”
Leila wearing the same black aura as before.
Then he aims his sword at somewhere other than Jenny.
“But what kind of mind do you have to hesitate in the middle of a battle? Don’t you know that one moment of mistake could cost you everything?”
Jenny was shocked when she saw the direction of the sword’s aim.
“There is no practice in life, only practice.”
It was the town of Alighieri.
At the same time, the Academy was also a target of the sword.
The blow that had destroyed a mountain was aimed at his friends.
“This is the result of your hesitation.”
“no…!”
“If you wanted to protect such precious memories, you shouldn’t have stopped!”
I had to stop her right away.
But the accumulated wounds brought him to his knees again.
The hand holding the sword was trembling as if it was holding a lump of iron.
As her despair deepened, something wrapped around her arm suddenly caught Jenny’s eye.
It was a string that Radon had put around his wrist like a bracelet.
Yes, if he stays still, Radon’s hard-planned plans will go down the drain.
Not only radon kills everyone.
`It’s time to throw it away.`
There is no gain without a price.
In order to protect it, you have to give up everything you have.
For that, Jenny let go of her senses.
I put my mind to rest.
Put yourself down.
“It’s disappointing.”
Leila was serious about aiming the bloodshot gun.
If she destroys the village with this, Jenny’s insignificance will be proven.
Whether it happens or not, it doesn’t matter to Leila.
But every time I saw such a weak being, I sighed.
I don’t know why, but I didn’t like it.
It was a frustrating feeling, like seeing a chick that was alone and couldn’t hatch while everyone else was already hatching.
You can’t be born without breaking that hard shell.
The same goes for the human mind.
Chorrrrrrrr!-
“uh?”
The ground is frozen.
My legs are frozen.
My lower and upper body were frozen.
The arms holding the swords that had been wrapped in black energy also froze.
Wheeeeeeing!-
The snowstorm is raging again.
This time, the snowstorm spread across the mountain and into the village.
Some residents are bewildered, wondering how winter could come in the middle of summer.
“Haaaaaah…”
Steam was pouring out of the mouth of the girl who had started it all.
He looks at Leila with blue eyes.
Jenny stood up again, the pain from the trauma just a moment ago gone.
She no longer had any means of controlling her power.
[100%]
Jenny opened the forbidden door and let everything go.
“This is…!”
Leila’s frozen body released and she made a surprised expression.
The appearance of someone who lost their reason and went wild due to being consumed by power.
Jenny herself was freezing as the cold air swept through her even more.
“How stupid!”
It was good that you tried to stop yourself.
But that method wasn’t a good one either.
“You’re losing your sense of reason!”
Jenny lunges at Leila, wielding her sword like an animal.
Leila rather found the movement ridiculous and cut it down with a single stroke of her sword.
Crunch!-
Jenny’s body was split in half.
It seemed like a truly brutal sight, but something was strange.
There was no blood.
No, it wasn’t Jenny herself to begin with… it was a fake made of ice.
“I thought you lost your mind?”
At that moment, something flew from behind and tied Leila’s arms and legs.
The real Jenny, who suddenly appeared, had manipulated the thread wrapped around her wrist.
“This, this is…”
“I learned it from a friend. And he was very solid.”
The ice clone from earlier was actually a copy of a classmate’s technique.
And the thread we’re using now is actually fishing line.
Jenny had been beaten up many times to learn these skills.
“And one more thing.”
[85%]
“I can’t control it 100%, but I can at least slightly touch it!”
It temporarily interferes and then releases itself right before it goes wild.
In fact, the snowstorm that had been raging all the way to the village began to abate.
“Haha, that’s funny.”
Leila smiled as if she found the techniques interesting.
“It’s still too early to be surprised.”
Jenny placed her hands on the floor and formed a giant ice cube.
The surrounding area turned into a space made of ice.
He pulls the fishing line and pulls Leila towards him.
He delivered a chilling blow to Leila, who approached him defenselessly.
At that moment, cold dust flew across the mountain.
Surviving as an Academy Fraudster
