Became the Golden Sun of the Academy

73 – Anastasia Aris (4)

The skeleton’s upper and lower body were split in two by the cold sword attack, and it was helplessly frozen.

It was inefficient to deal with all the skeletons flocking from all sides with a sword, but considering the nature of skeletons that do not die and come back to life, it was better to freeze them and neutralize them.

However, Adele wielding the sword was alone, and the number of skeletons trying to attack him reached hundreds, so this sight, which seemed to be overwhelmed by Adele right now, was about to be reversed someday.

“As expected, it was reckless to deal with it alone.”

Baekgyeong, which seemed to be on the same page, is also losing sight of the power struggle with Baekgyeong summoned by Rich.

If it was wild, it wouldn’t be strange to roll his tail and run away, but Baek Kyung couldn’t leave his sorcerer alone and was still struggling.

An excellent pet that does not leave its master alone, does not run away, and does not go against his master’s wishes.

As expected of Anastasia’s pet, Adele thought he was a very loyal guy.

That’s why Anastasia, sleeping in the body of that rich, must follow the will of the rich for the life she wants in her dreams.

Anyway, I can see the limits of fairy tales that seemed omnipotent.

Even if Anastasia’s unique magic was assimilated and used, it was only a deteriorated version of the original unique magic, and it was said that it was not at a level that could surpass the real one.

“Whoa.”

Adele took a deep breath and caught her rough breath.

Because she was assimilating Lucy’s characteristics, white breath came out.

In the blowing breath, I glared at the lich who was watching all of this from afar.

Is time an ally or an enemy?

Now was the time to make a decision on the side of that worry.

If the people climbing the mountain to stop Anastasia join quickly, maintain this situation and defeat them after joining.

If their joining is delayed, I’ll have to bet on an uncertain match before wasting my stamina on a small monster.

The moment when the two options are not in equilibrium and my mind goes to the latter.

Wheeae liquid─

Pagong sound from up there.

The only thing that catches Adele’s eyes after glancing at it is a small twinkle.

The transparent ice arrow drew a large parabola and fell almost at right angles.

“You’re coming at the perfect timing.”

The tilted mind tilted once again.

Although it was a bit late, Lucy, whom I could entrust to support, had arrived.

Looking at you like that.

“Huh?”

The next arrow falling through the dark clouds.

One, two, three, four…….

At first, the number of ice arrows fell to the point where they could be counted, and then showers of ice arrows rained down like heavy rain.

“Lucy?”

Indiscriminate bombing without considering Adele at the top of the mountain.

Could it be that he decided that no one was there and shot this recklessly, or did he shoot it deliberately despite knowing it?

With that thought in mind, Adele gathered the surrounding soil and rocks to surround herself.

Papa papa papa papa!

And then the bombing began.

As soon as the ice arrow touched the ground, it exploded with cold air and formed a flower bud.

And soon, the flower buds fully bloomed and the cold air exploded, so even if they were not hit by the ice arrows, everything around them was swept away by the cold air and froze.

The lich’s white whale, which was flying in the sky, also cried out in pain as its skin froze in places, the skeletons on the ground all froze and then shattered, and the lich’s robes were also stained pure white as if frost had covered them.

A blow that turns the tide of battle.

I’m glad that helped, but that attack, which seemed like it didn’t matter if I got caught up in it, was a little bothersome.

As soon as the bombardment stopped, Adele, who blew away the dirt and rocks, stared at the place where the attack began, vowing to say something to Lucy later.

“…… Hey! You, did you really go after Adele?!”

And his pupils slowly dilated.

It was a strange sight not to be surprised.

“If it was the Adele I knew, he would have been attacked, but…… What happened?”

Lucy stares at herself while holding her ice bow, and Lucy grabs her shoulders with both hands and shakes her as if she is angry with her.

Because there were two Lucys who looked the same no matter how you looked at it.

I don’t know what happened, but Adele said, who seemed certain that Lucy, who was targeting him, would be a power.

“I don’t know what it is, but if you’re targeting me, why don’t you finish this job?”

It seems that Adele is somewhat different from the Lucy she knew, but even so, Lucy must be Lucy.

A proposal made with the strong conviction that Anastasia and others who would be harmed by Richie will not be turned a blind eye.

“Huh.”

Lucy snorted and pulled the bowstring.

Aim for a rich.

No, to be precise, the monsters blocking the way to the lich.

“Yes, thank you.”

“Don’t get me wrong, we’re working together to defeat him before Kyle arrives.”

And Lucy let go of the bowstring, which had not been hung.

He didn’t fire his arrows, did he just forget?

A strange change that happens before Adele even raises her doubts.

Wheein…….

A small breeze blew.

A mediocre wind that only slightly shakes Adele’s hair.

But it grazed her Adele and became a storm, and she swallowed the skeletons that stood in her way.

The path to the Lich that has definitely been created.

Adele ran down the road before a new skeleton got in her way.

Now that Lucy has opened the way, all that remains is to kill the lich with a powerful blow before the lich fully revives.

Adele raised an ice sword.

“Write.”

Imagining is Kyle’s swordsmanship.

The sword of a man who will later become a swordsman who cuts through everything with the skills he learned from that shabby book he found in the library.

But that alone is not enough.

There is a limit to the swordsmanship that can only be imitated in fairy tales.

What makes up for the missing part there is Adele’s memory of the future who modified Kyle’s swordsmanship to make up for his weakness.

The memory he left behind instinctively led the sword into a straight bow.

Adele grabbed the ice sword with both his hands and held it high into the sky.

It is a simple species cutting.

Swoop.

The tip of the sword moves and cuts the clouds in the sky.

Clang!

And the translucent shield deployed by the lich.

Quad Deuk!

And the hand that the lich stretched out with magic power.

–That’s it—–

And the shout from Richie.

────.

Dark clouds parted in half and the sun came down from the clear sky.

As the black translucent lich’s shield beneath it shattered, the splashed fragments diffusely reflected the sunlight, and white bones poured down.

Amid the shattering bones, Adele put the sword she was holding onto the floor and raised her head.

Anastasia falls defenselessly as the body of the lich she was supporting is smashed.

Adele stretched out her arms to catch her as she fell.

“Mom… ….”

Anastasia was still weeping as if she hadn’t misunderstood the tears she saw when she looked at them from afar.

Judging from the fact that the corners of her mouth, which had drooped every time, rose slightly, it seemed that she was not crying tears of sadness, but closer to tears of joy, but unfortunately, it was time to wake up from that dream.

Adele took a deep breath, brushing her tousled Anastasia hair.

She said that even though she was in the wrong direction, she would have to take her due responsibility for making the effort she made to meet her family go to waste. Took off

“Anastasia.”

Adele called her name softly, like a parent waking up her child after she overslept.

“… ….”

At that call, Anastasia slowly lifted her closed eyelids.

She squinted her swollen eyes as her tears rolled down her eyes at the sudden rush of light.

“It’s time to wake up, Anastasia.”

Someone was calling him.

The sun rising over his head cast a shadow over his face, making it impossible to recognize his face.

But she didn’t seem to need to be wary as she heard that kind voice that seemed to wake her up after she had overslept.

“Brother…… ?”

It’s not my father’s voice, and it’s not a woman’s voice either, so what’s left is my brother.

Anastasia wondered if she could finally get her family back with her own magic, but she didn’t.

“I’m sorry, but I am not your brother.”

He looked up slowly in denial.

The sun-exposed face was a face that even Anastasia knew.

It was Adele.

“… ….”

Embarrassed, Anastasia stretched out her neck as she cradled Adele in her arms and looked around her.

It was full of ice all around.

There were piles of bones that could not be identified as animal or human.

…… No matter how much I looked around, I couldn’t see the person she wanted to call her and her family.

Anastasia finally finished her situation and grabbed Adele’s collar with tears in her eyes.

“Is it still a dream?”

She said she was dreaming.

She still hasn’t woken up from a terrible nightmare.

She begged him with eyes that denied her reality, desperately wanting him to tell him that this place, with no one in her family to love her, was not real.

“Tell me it’s still a dream…… Please tell me this isn’t real…….”

“… ….”

When Adele didn’t answer, Anastasia clung to him even more desperately.

“I miss my mother.”

“I miss my dad, and I miss my brother too.”

“I don’t want to be alone anymore… ….”

The sincerity she vomited out with tears like a child.

Anastasia’s heart seemed weak as if she couldn’t bear it any more at the failure of her life’s goal, which was dominated by her determination to save her family.

“Anastasia.”

Adele looked at the crying Anastasia and said,

“I won’t say anything arrogant about taking the place of your family, but I can still keep you from being alone.”

At his words, Anastasia sniffed her nose and lifted her face.

“I can talk to you, eat with you, and go out with you.”

It was just ordinary things without anything special.

Those ordinary things that most people do every day.

But what Anastasia had hoped for was such an ordinary thing.

May there be warmth in the cold and lonely dormitory.

I hope there is someone who greets me when I wake up.

I hope you can eat food with someone’s sincerity, not the food you made yourself.

And I hope someone will take care of you and love you.

I just wanted something ordinary like that.

So, Adele’s words were enough.

She may not be able to completely fill the void she hadn’t been able to fill even with numerous summons, but she may not be able to get rid of the sadness, but at least she could block some of it.

“It may be impossible to save your family, but…… If you reap the magic of the rich, it might be possible to meet your family at least once.”

“Really…… ?”

“I’m not sure, but I’ll try.”

At his answer, Anastasia stopped crying.

She gazed at Adele, who was comforting her with wide-open eyes, and nodded her head.

“Yes… ….”

For some reason, looking at him seemed to warm my cold and lonely heart.

Has Adele worked a spell on her?

I don’t know what kind of magic it is, but it was amazing.

I liked this feeling of warming my heart.
