I Became a Face Genius at the Academy

Chapter 79

The monster doesn’t stop even at night.

During the return to the barrier, they had to continue moving without camping even at night.

The physical strength of the knights who did not neglect training was originally excellent, and the magicians of the special lease who went up and down the stairs of the barrier countless times did not get tired easily.

So.

“Hak, heck, kek.”

I was the biggest problem.

“… … Are you okay?”

“Yeah.”

I still haven’t reached level 5 stamina.

I don’t know anything else, but I don’t think I neglected exercise, but it seems like it can’t be helped that I’m a weakling.

Coltman is also tall, and if you look closely, he has the impression that he is far from being reliable.

I made a decision without any hesitation.

“No, I can’t. Just carry me too.”

The knights had plenty of time until the demons appeared, so I decided to carry them too. I didn’t want to grow old and carry myself,

The knight carrying me moved backwards a bit with the knight carrying Baeller, so when I turned my head, I could see Baeller’s handsome face.

“I’ll turn.”

I realized the power of level 10 again.

They say that when you look at my face, which is a level 10 charm, you get angry, but when you look at this guy’s level 9 face, you don’t get angry.

“Let’s take a break and move again.”

“Yes.”

In addition to heavy armor, it is difficult to carry people on your back.

It’s been 16 hours since I started moving.

I didn’t show it off, but the knights showed signs of getting tired a little bit, so I suggested a break.

After escaping from the magic’s influence, the forest appeared again.

Unlike when they came, the aftermath of tens of thousands of monsters had left the forest in ruins. There were also many fallen and broken trees, so the party sat down and took a rest.

“Ugh… … .”

“senior? woke up? Did you wake up?”

When Baeler, who had been lying down in the sun, groaned, I ran over and patted him on the cheek.

However, since he did not open his eyes for a long time, he also sprinkled water with magic. Then I opened my eyes vaguely.

“Rockstrin… … .”

“The operation was successful, and we are returning to the barrier. If you still can’t see, just close your eyes.”

I’m just angry, I know very well that Baeller’s mind will be disoriented.

From the first time he accepted the magical power of the magic core and cast it, he had already gone blind, and his balance organ was broken. Rather than urging, he informed me of the current situation.

“Control has been taken away.”

It was the first word that came out of Baeller’s mouth. In fact, it is possible to know what happened without Baeller explaining it.

Entering the [Blade Vortex] that was in full swing, Kanin, who had stolen the control of magical power, canceled the magic with a forceful blow.

Kanin is a mage. there is no way you can resist

“And.”

“You’ve done your job… … .”

“under!”

Laughter came out.

That’s what I heard half a year ago. I passed out then, but now I’m not as weak as I was back then.

“And did you die?”

“… … .”

“It will be May. 7 stars. Is that a will? Did you leave those words to one of your students and then die? Doesn’t it make sense even if you think about it?”

“Sorry.”

“Why are you apologizing? What did the senior do wrong… … .”

Baeller moved his arm with difficulty and held out something.

“… … I’m sorry, Rocktrin.”

It was Kanin’s professor emeritus badge.

“I didn’t want to live.”

Baeller curled up his weak hand and squeezed it. With barely raised arms.

“I can’t die anymore.”

thump, thump. beat my chest

I try to beat my chest as hard as I can, but nothing gets better.

“It would have been better if nothing had changed. Pointless was better.”

Kanin Mage Artine is dead.

Baeller Rongrt, to save the ‘fake’ with nothing.

It was a priceless sacrifice.

“Sorry. Rockstrin.”

My head is heavy.

The shoulders are heavy.

The air swallowed is heavy.

Now I can’t even die on my own.

It’s because if you die here, it’s not even that nothing will change.

that.

It is an obvious harm.

“senior.”

I said as I grabbed my professor emeritus badge. My head hurts, but yes.

Variables can occur at any time.

Something I never imagined would happen someday. You didn’t know, did you? Half a year was a long time.

The expiration date is over.

But.

“I’m talking about the obvious.”

Still, there is time.

“It shouldn’t be a nuisance.”

An absurd variable has occurred, so there is no choice but to do something absurd.

“A nuisance… … . haha, yes.”

“Now, the old man can’t die. never. I won’t let you die.”

I grinned and grabbed Baeller’s sagging wrist. It cannot be called a countermeasure. this is just stupid

Save Baeller.

“Until it becomes nothing.”

to live to the end

The vacancy of Kanin Mage Altain.

Replaced with Baeller Rongrt.

“You see?”

Just make the fake real.

When I pulled the wrist that I had given strength to, Baeler struggled to stand up.

“… … If only I could.”

In his dejected voice, there was surely a faint will to live.

“When I get back, I will tell you the truth. Professor Kanin sacrificed himself on behalf of his seniors.”

“It should be.”

“The expectations and pressures are enormous.”

The party resumed their movement.

A barrier can be seen in the distance.

Now, I often run into monsters that have lagged behind in the front group.

The knights could no longer carry me and Baeller, and Baeller, who was still blind, had no choice but to move with me supporting him.

“The demons followed from behind. I’ll take it.”

Two knights were placed at the back of the party along with O’Neill.

Behind the huge hole that Kanin’s magic had pierced through the group of monsters, only a few low-level monsters with unnecessarily fast movement speed caught up with them.

It’s not that threatening.

“If you do this, you arrived quickly.”

I got out the radar.

One red dot on each side of the barrier. Both are holding their seats.

A response should come. Magic was injected once. A separate white light flashed.

and after 5 seconds.

The light blinks once more.

“You were watching.”

Using the method used when filtering out professors in the ‘Theft of Mana Core Case’, he taught me a few things about communication using the number and time of lighting.

If there is a response when the light blinks once, it means that the other party has confirmed it.

‘Arriving soon.’

’30 minutes later.’

convey the necessary information.

Soon, I got the flicker back, meaning that I had confirmed it.

“As we did when we left, we’ll clear the road in the direction of Outpost 6.”

“Can we do it ourselves?”

“I will help you at the barrier.”

“However… … .”

In the direction of outpost number 2, streaks of light like thunder continue to flash.

It was the magic of the court wizard Derek, whom I had seen in Creditia. No matter how many times I’ve accepted it, it doesn’t budge.

“Um, what the hell is that?”

“I do not know. Maybe high-level monsters weren’t the end,”

“Huh… … .”

Megalith (Megios).

The huge body made of stone is in the shape of a person. Although the height of the barrier is 50m, its gigantic body reaches 25m, which is half of that.

If only he could reach up and swing that long arm that was dragging and scratching the ground. Even the fortified northern wall would be nothing more than a heap of stones.

“If Mage Derek’s magic can’t stop it… … .”

“There must be another way.”

The wizard’s magic that has reached 8 stars is completely out of the existing framework.

Derek Mage Deholt is more accustomed to magic than attribute magic, which he invented by himself, that attacks magic itself by shaping it into an entity with power.

However, the body of that megalithic soldier is made of hard stone, so in short, the compatibility is not good.

Derek, Coltman, and the professor’s fusion magic prevented him from narrowing the distance to the barrier.

So, the life of the party depends on the child.

“Shouldn’t taking care of our future come first?”

“… … It seems so.”

From a distance, it looks like a jet-black ditch surrounds the barrier.

everyone is a monster I’m scared to have to pass through vaguely.

“You have to be careful.”

You can see the corpses of monsters piled up like a mountain in front of the outpost.

There are demons that climb over the hill, there are soldiers who block it, and magic pours incessantly on top.

It’s a shame because the eyes are focused on that side, if even some of those monsters look back now, it’s the end.

“Let’s go. Support will come soon.”

“… … Yes.”

rattle.

forward, forward.

As they continued to advance, even the most loyal knights of Aindarok were shaking at the tip of their swords.

The situation was different from the ambush. Just holding out for 10 seconds and running into that black hell.

The two are completely different issues.

“Cow, platoon commander.”

“We need to get closer.”

“… … All right.”

It’s dark in front of my eyes

It was not meant metaphorically. My field of vision was completely filled with monsters.

What would happen if he managed to attract the attention of a monster? The steps were heavy. The sound of the armor clanking could not be heard that loudly.

50m, 30m, 20m… … .

“stop.”

stop moving forward

The sound of gulp and swallowing could be heard here and there. The legs of the knights were shaking like aspen trees.

Kieek, kieek!

Thousands of monsters were within reach of the nose. A peculiar grotesque cry tickles the ears.

‘Ready.’

Send a signal.

A faint light flickered on the far wall. It seems that the child is finally casting his magic.

It looks like some strange device is sticking out its snout.

How are you?

“Reset formation.”

O’Neill set up two knights on each side, one on each side, and one on the back.

Place me and Baeller at the front. Of course, it was the knights who stood outside that became dangerous.

No one expressed any dissatisfaction. Even the knights would know.

12 people.

No one can guarantee that all 12 people will survive in a place like that.

“Get ready.”

Being prepared is no big deal.

It was ready to run.

“If I give you a signal, you just run straight ahead.”

Red light gathers on top of the barrier.

First time seeing it, is it a new magic? Even from a distance, I could vaguely feel the immense power rushing into me.

The level has risen again. I knew it.

’30 seconds.’

How powerful was the magic that it took 30 seconds to cast?

I lifted my fingers from the 5th second and started folding them one by one, taking a deep breath.

Flash!

The moment when the light finally gathered at one point was projected forward.

“now-“

no.

not.

The light that came out in the blink of an eye barely stopped the foot that was about to take a big step.

‘stop!’

He hurriedly stretched out his arms to both sides to stop the knights from running out.

“What, what happened?”

“… … this.”

I burst out laughing.

I don’t know what kind of magic it was, but the bright red light that flew from the top of the barrier definitely hit the group of monsters.

However, monsters are still swarming in front of my eyes.

It’s a very simple story.

“I missed it.”

“You miss… … .”

The magic has gone wrong.

“it’s okay. You can shoot again.”

I guess I was in a hurry.

The point where the light hit was to the northeast, a little away from where the party was.

The monsters that were directly hit in a row were completely destroyed. The scorching heat was transmitted through the wind, so it could be seen as a tremendous destructive power.

“Calm down a little.”

I tried to mumble something I couldn’t hear. Ainim is a genius, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t fail. Even just Gomok right now, he lost countless times to me.

The outpost is at the maximum range of normal magic.

Hundreds of meters if farther than that. It is only visible as a dot, so it is natural that it is difficult to aim.

“Wait.”

“Yes.”

It is best to wait until the next spell is prepared. But something is strange.

A few more minutes passed.

‘Why not cast it?’

The top of the barrier was still silent.

“Platoon commander, monsters keep coming from behind. If I use bigger magic than now, I’ll get attention.”

“How much longer can you last?”

“At most 10 minutes.”

O’Neill said cautiously.

The magicians of the special lease were dealing with the monsters in the rear with relatively simple 1 and 2 star magic.

There is not much time.

In a situation where there is no support from the barrier, if you continue to deal with the chasing guys, you will attract the attention of the monsters piled up in front.

Why don’t you use magic… … .

‘… … What is that?’

I narrowed my eyes.

It can only be seen as a small dot, but if you see it’s golden, it’s a child.

The gold dot that clung to the strange device I saw earlier was going up and down, but at a glance, it didn’t look like things were going well.

‘Didn’t you use magic by hand?’

Circumstances seem to be so.

That protruding device seems to be contributing to the magic a while ago.

At that moment, the radar in my hand flashed. What is returned when the acknowledgment signal is sent.

‘aiming.’

‘No.’

Unable to aim?
