Avoid Former Co-Workers

90 – 90. Reversal (6)

“sh*t… Did I say something wrong…?”

-‘…I want to go!’

I was aiming to talk about it because I thought that since I had a generous meal, Renias must have been in high spirits.

For some reason, Rhenias walked away with his cheeks puffed up with a troubled face.

“Well, he must have put in a lot of effort to reach that point. I tried to get it raw, so I guess it’s my fault.”

If you consider how difficult the conditions for academy students to go to the battlefield are, it might be so.

Considering that other people moan at the banquet hall and wait to hear even one more piece of advice from their seniors, it was literal to be a coward to receive information related to such a valuable experience for one meal.

I’ll have to apologize next time.

Then there is nothing special.

It would be best for me to go to the Duvet House and put our heads together while thinking similar things to them.

… There were times when I thought so. Until I saw with my own eyes that there was a commotion at the academy.

-Someone HELP HELP!!!

-You have to bring water first! There is no answer to this!

-But if you pour water on it…!

-Can’t blow it away with wind magic?!

-Different from other buildings, this is Dube Hall! Neither the flames nor the splash-out can be quenched by magic!

“What…”

What the hell is going on?

“Why… Is the dube tube collapsing?!”

A catastrophe is unfolding right in front of your eyes. The situation was no different from before the return.

Kwaang—!

As if waiting for his arrival, a series of explosions erupted again in the duvet coffin.

***

“What is this…”

“What the hell did that bastard Kayden do…”

“Doo, the entrance to the Dube tube is blocked!”

As soon as the roaring stopped, the students crouched down and finally stretched out their bodies. When I opened my eyes, the building was already engulfed in flames and was slowly collapsing.

Even in this situation where his life is at stake, he is intoxicated with a sense of superiority. Senia pursed her lips crookedly towards Caden, who was clearly not normal.

‘That bastard is not normal…!’

It was clear that he had committed it in the hope that the loss of human life would come out.

An explosion inside a building after a horse sounds like a fuse planted and ready to be ignited.

I don’t know what method was used, but it was no longer a matter of passing by.

Seureung-

Senia pulls out a sword from her waist and points it at Cayden.

“What are you doing. You guys now. You’re not allowed to interfere, are you even going to kill us?!”

“Well, this could just be an accident.”

“Ha, you shameless bastard…!”

It is already too much damage to the building to collect the evidence one by one. While the rescue process is taking place outside, the evidence will easily burn.

However, there is something more worrisome than that right now.

Why did you create this situation?

“Everyone stand up and get ready to fight. The other side will come out with all their might.”

“What…?”

“This explosion. They caused it. They did it in such a way that they didn’t care if we died under the rubble. Don’t you see?”

Didn’t you say it was an accident? Then it wouldn’t be strange no matter what happened here.

Since it was committed in the manner that it doesn’t matter if people die, there is no way to know what more will happen. This is why Senia drew her sword.

“Oh, you’re a smart b*tch. Isn’t it strange that you incompetent people die?”

“What…?”

“Because that bastard wants to see you…!”

“I wonder if you’re just standing still?! Just deal with you guys and get out of here, how many witnesses are there!”

As the Cayden group’s intent to harm them here becomes clear, their bodies are consumed with anger and begin to rise one by one.

The only thing you can do is snort away the intruders.

Criticism and scolding can now be heard through one ear.

Even if those with demons attack, it is possible for this side to deal with those who have manifested demons as well.

Even if all of that was impossible, they were determined to resist without forgetting the potential shown by one man.

However. Now was the time to take care of reason a little more.

“It’s stupid. We can’t deal with you with our own hands. We should have lowered our heads when we gave it a chance.”

As soon as Cayden’s words are finished, explosions erupt once again in various places.

Boom—!

“Ahhhhh?!”

“Kyaaah!!”

They are ranged mages and nobles.

These are the ones who can create any number of threats here just by carving a marker with a magic tool in a designated place and then carving magic into it.

The fuses had already been installed in layers for a long time. The front door, one of the entrances to the laboratory, was blocked, and the windows were blocked, of course.

“Did you blow it all up?”

“Uh. Doors are all sealed.”

The front door and windows are full of burning debris, so the only thing left is the back door. There, the nobles were showing their composure as if they were enjoying the situation.

But if you think about it, it wasn’t a situation where you could be relaxed.

“Did you go crazy?! You know you can’t be safe if you explode all over the place like this!”

If you’re not crazy about dying, this is crazy.

If a building collapses from above, it is impossible to withstand the weight of the structures with only human strength.

It’s not just the lab, it’s the same no matter which side collapses.

Not only for Senia and the vanguard students, but also for those who use other magic, there was always a risk.

Nevertheless, they roar and laugh.

“Don’t worry about that. Unlike you who will leave here as corpses due to various causes, we’re wizards, so it’s okay.”

“What…?”

“Kaden. Talking too long. We’ll be in danger if we stay like this.”

“Ah, yes. One more word and I’m done.”

Cayden groaned, clearing his throat and looking down at them, still without a hint of uneasiness.

“This is a punishment for you guys. It’s a punishment for the crime of not knowing the subject and rebelling against the lofty nobles. Of course, that punishment is—”

-It’s your life, though.

After those words, the back door also collapsed, and the laboratory became a completely isolated place.

***

“Everyone wake up!! What are you doing!!”

Senia screams out in frustration, but the students who have fallen into the abyss of despair have already given up.

“I thought I could do something now…”

“Mom… I’m sorry… I shouldn’t have fought then…”

“Father… I guess I should have listened to it when I said I was a business or an actor, rather than going to the academy…”

“Sorry Abel… I guess you’ve gone this far…”

A collapsing building. Burning inside. In an isolated laboratory, more and more people begin to give up on their situation one by one.

I tried to escape somehow, but gave up after realizing that it was too difficult for them to break through the two entrances to the laboratory, which were blocked in front and back.

“f*ck…!”

Kaang, Kang!!

With the sword in it, cut through the debris blocking the entrance to the lab.

But it’s just a sword. There was no way it would have enough power to cut through the burning remains.

Even if you read the texture with your eyes, you can’t see a place that can be pierced because it is exceptionally weak.

She tried her best, but in the end Senia let go of her breath and put down the sword she was holding in her hand.

Chang-G-Rang.

“Hey, hey…”

I tried several times to cut down the wreckage, but it was not enough. Would it be fortunate if it cracked, let alone cut? The wreckage does not budge.

“Damn it!”

This is Dubekan.

It is a building full of dangerous materials, with magic labs, labs, and laboratories lined up.

From noble mtl dot com

The distance from this first-floor laboratory to the door is not too far, but those who are determined to bury people here won’t leave the entrance unattended.

The same goes for miraculously getting out of the lab.

If you want to escape, you have to go up to at least the second floor and jump down, risking breaking your legs.

The 2nd floor is a place where monsters are analyzed and studied, so you will inevitably encounter monsters that have become berserk due to the splash-out on the 1st floor.

Would it be possible to deal with the researchers who were residing on the second floor? No. It can’t be.

Haven’t you met the Giant Kud Rat and personally experienced that it was at a level that was incomparable to the Kud Rat? If there were researchers who fought against the berserk monsters without leaving the building, they might not be people of this world anymore.

The most problematic is the third floor.

Artifacts and magical engineering devices that were being crafted could have been disposed of in a hurry, but I couldn’t afford it.

With the help of others, he counts the chances of being rescued, but realizes that it converges to zero indefinitely, so he punches the floor.

Still, Senia had to stand up.

If I give up here, nothing will be different from back then.

In addition, this time there are people who said they would blindly trust and silently accept whatever results come, so we shouldn’t give up.

Because those who believed only in themselves and decided to share their destiny will be waiting until they die.

‘I will definitely keep my promise with you guys.’

I got up and grabbed the sword again. And hit it Even though it’s obvious that it won’t even get scratched.

Even if you can’t do anything with your own strength. Even if no one in the seat stands up.

Once again, Senia held her sword and wielded her magical power as she had.

“Whoa, whoa…!”

Suddenly, that scene came to Senia’s mind. It might be my memory that she had been looking for along with the electric tone that said she was going to turn the fourth clock hand.

Compared to now, it can be said that it is similar. It’s because the situation before death is the same thing.

Students of the academy whose only way to avoid them is to deal with dying humans and monsters.

The defense lines fell and even the academy was breached, leaving only the students.

The principality was devastated, and there was little hope in sight. Overall, it’s worse than it is now. Unlike now, when there are people out there to rescue you, you didn’t even know when reinforcements would come back then.

However, only one person did not succumb to the situation.

He took all the pressure and criticism and did not come down from that stern and suffocating position.

Even when he heard the command to split in two for the last time, he never let go of the burden or passed it on.

Why do these memories come to mind in this situation?

‘It’s not like there’s a kaleidoscope ahead.’

I don’t know. But it was enough to help me make up my mind.

You can follow him.

I’ve been beaten by nobles every time, but even half of the tenacity of the guy who rushed at me again regardless of means.

Every time I get pointed at for not being fit in Thembris, I want to improve even more, even if it’s only 1/3 of Ogi, who almost lived in the Mizar Hall.

At least 1/4 of the efforts of the man who secretly woke up every night and tried to help his colleagues rather than hinder them.

Even though he lost his strength, his will to attack the demon beast with only a shield bare and prepared for death, even if it was just a speck of dust.

…Huh?

How do I know that…?

“Se, Senia…”

“How did that…?”

By the time I came to my senses, the wreckage had already split in half.

“Heo Eok, Heo Eok…!”

I don’t even know what I’ve done, and the rough breathing that should be called recoil presses my chest. But Senia was holding her throbbing head, not her chest.

‘This is not the time.’

Isn’t the road opened for now? My head is pounding, but I have to move my body right now.

“Let’s go. Let’s go somewhere safe…”

At that moment, the front door of the laboratory was pouring down. In the meantime, Twinhead Fenril, who came down from the second floor, was smacking his lips while breaking the threshold.

-Kreurre…

Unlike in the test, there is no one who can manifest the magic field right away because there is no mana stone.

There were people who brought weapons, but no one except Senia. Because I was interested in the magic field in the first place.

Since I used up all my mana on the wreckage of the front door earlier, there is no one who can immobilize him with magic right now.

The only one who can stand up is Senia.

Senia, exhausted from slashing her wreckage, could not deal with the berserk Twin Head Fenrir with her splash out.

Literally desperate. It was on the verge of becoming a meal for the rushing witch.

But.

-Keheeng!

“This way, not that way.”

At the man who appeared with her black hair fluttering, Fenrir fell out and tumbled down the hallway.

“Is everyone okay?”

“”Junon…!””
