How the Shadow of the Marquis Lives

Episode 70

Caan-!

The man with scales on Xian’s sword bounced away. Smack! He fell face down on the puddle of blood he had vomited.

[The Black Spirit is excited by the familiar energy!]

And, the aura of hell that can be sensed from him.

Xian’s eyes narrowed.

‘I don’t know who is the culprit in this case.’

The black magician is clear.

Black energy wrapped around Xian’s sword.

He was the one who attacked the academy in this way. It’s not like he came here for a good purpose.

You have to find it.

“Ke-heo-eok!”

The man fell face down and coughed again, and blood poured out of his mouth again.

The blood on the floor was already enough to be called a lake rather than a puddle.

then at that lake.

Chick-Gig, Chick-Geek!

Snuggle Geek!

Demons began to rise.

Lizardman, a monster whose head resembles that of a lizard and whose entire body is covered in smooth scales.

A high-level monster that is said to have been mixed with the blood of dragons that appear only in myths—of course, it’s not really mixed.

The blood-red spear in his hand was giving off an eerie anticipation.

“Kyaaah!”

“Do, run away!”

“Come this way! Come over here!”

Instructors deployed in various places induced the evacuation of citizens.

Some lead people, and some thwart Lizardmen raids.

The student who was taking the exam in the middle of the exam also raised a weapon towards the Lizardman.

“You guys help evacuate!”

“Ha, but… … .”

“Stop talking, come on!”

At the words of the instructors who shouted, most of the students left for the citizens.

They protected the citizens and led them to the basement of the main building.

However, some students who were proud of their skills remained in place and dealt with the Lizardmen.

They were also instructors who wanted to send them to the shelter, but they were busy trying to stop the Lizardmen from invading them.

bang! Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!

Fire and ice flew around, and sword light flashed.

No matter how powerful the Lizardmen are, the instructors are said to be talented people gathered from all over the continent.

In their hands, the Lizardmen were sliced up one by one.

However, there were more people who rose than those who fell.

Awesome!

“Kieek!”

Xian’s sword split the spear of a Lizardman.

Without stopping there, his sword cut through the guy’s head.

hooked! Blood spurts out and the light in the eyes disappears. Pushing the already dead corpse with his foot, Xian pulled out his sword.

“draft! Go to the shelter too!”

One of the instructors found Xian and shouted that.

I’m sorry, but that shouldn’t be the case. He must find a warlock.

[The Black Spirit is delighted with the familiar energy!]

‘Ugh!’

Even the Lizardmen have weak energy. Even that little energy was sucked by Ravi.

“draft! sleep… … Hey, you son of a b*tch!”

The instructor who was about to come to dry Xian was surrounded by other Lizardmen before he knew it.

And that’s not all. Other instructors and students also had several to dozens of Lizardmen attached to them.

Xian frowned.

There are too many numbers. Compared to our number, the number of Lizardmen rising was much higher.

‘When there are many numbers.’

I didn’t do anything like this

Xian took out the spear and listened.

Charleureuk!

The sword pieces released along with the stream of water cut the necks of several Lizardmen and passed by.

One of the tightly packed Lizardmen collapsed while creating a puddle of blood.

There, where he was able to catch his breath for a moment, Xian inspected the situation.

‘The instructors don’t really need to help.’

Although numerous, they are not in danger. It’s just that my hands are very busy.

‘Ugh!’

After stopping for a while, Ravi came over.

While quickly absorbing energy from them.

Without disappointing Ravi’s expectations, Xian drew his sword.

[ Changhae ]

[ Heavenly Sword – True ]

chump chump chump!

The spear of the spear, the stream full of spirits, cut the waists of all the Lizardmen in front of them.

Xian’s eyes lit up as he checked the amount of energy flowing into Ravi.

Each one was weak, but after catching this amount, the accumulation was not negligible.

-good! Hold on like this and hunt!

The roaring voices of the instructors were heard.

Hearing their shouts, Xian sliced up the Lizardmen he could see.

I didn’t even have to move. As soon as one fell, another came in to take his place.

The only thing Xian had to do was deal with the Lizardmen who rushed at him with his eyes closed.

As I diligently wielded the spear, I began to feel their pressure gradually diminishing.

―Their numbers are dwindling! Let’s do our best!

The instructors seemed to have felt the same thing, so I heard a brightly rising sound.

If this is the number of Lizardmen, it is enough to push a fairly large territory as it is.

However, it was easier than expected to say that it was an attack on Everwhale, which was invulnerable even on the continent.

Perhaps the culprit misjudged Everweil’s potential.

do you think so

Kururrureung!

The void was distorted.

Black mana was tangled in dozens of high places in the sky. The sight caught everyone’s eyes.

“Kyaaa!”

A winged lizard began to appear from within that black mana.

Wyvern.

A dragon-type monster similar to Lizardman, several times more difficult than Lizardman.

“It’s a wyvern!”

“sh*t! Pour the magic first!”

The instructors’ magic began to embroider the air.

A few were able to land properly and drop them, but most of them flew through the air to avoid them.

There is only one reason why Wyverns are several times more demanding than Lizardmen.

that it has wings.

“Ravi!”

“yes!”

Seeing the attacking wyvern, Xian swung his spear.

It is a weapon with a much longer range than a normal sword. Although this would have been enough.

“Kigeek!”

The wyvern, who saw the shooting stream of water, momentarily stopped, then flew up again.

The spear that was heading towards him just cut through the air and passed by.

And when the changhae fell to the ground again. At that time, the Wyvern descended again.

‘You’re smart.’

Charleuk.

Changhae, who had returned intact in his hand, quietly shone.

“Kiaag!”

As if looking for a perfect gap, the wyvern confidently landed on Xian’s head.

A foot with a large claw rushed at Xian’s head as if it would snap it at an instant.

Xian’s eyes flashed.

flying monster. What is needed in this case.

[ Sword Spirit (劍靈) – Secret Sword (飛劍) ]

Changhae transforms into a much longer longsword.

A sword with a subtle light green color. A long white cloth hanging from the end of the handle.

Awesome!

“K… … ?”

The thrown big sword passed through the Wyvern’s neck.

* * *

Even the Lizardman was worth doing. However, when the wyverns started pouring in, the tide completely reversed.

Even in the midst of this, Zerech in the VIP seat did not move.

The garrison captain went down to deal with the Lizardmen earlier, and he was alone here.

The finger on the handle of the sword wriggled.

‘Be patient… … .’

Zerech tried hard not to want to draw his sword and swing it.

The bastard is inducing himself now.

Use your hands first to wipe out the Lizardmen or Wyverns.

If he moves first, he won’t miss that momentary gap.

Even at this moment, I felt eyes watching me from somewhere.

‘If only I could defeat them, they’d think it would be a matter of time before Everwhale was destroyed.’

He’s the kind of guy who does a lot of work.

In addition, the entirety of the unknown magic circle that surrounds the outside of the city has not yet been revealed.

The Lizardman summoned from the blood pool or the black magic in the air that summons the Wyvern had nothing to do with the magic circle outside.

That magic circle was far more sinister than anything like this.

‘I’m begging you right now.’

His eyes sank even more as he looked at the instructors who were active below him.

We can only hope that they will solve this situation.

However, the atmosphere that seemed to win easily until the Lizardman was reversed with the appearance of the Wyvern.

The only ones who can counter Wyverns are instructors who use magic.

However, the number of Wyverns was too great to fight them alone.

Moreover, as magic instructors were dealing with wyverns, the burden of swordsmanship instructors dealing with lizardmen also doubled.

That’s why his hand wriggling on the handle of the sword.

If it were me, I could slaughter all the wyverns with a single sword.

“… … .”

But that knife is burdensome.

Especially since he doesn’t know where he is watching him.

‘Find out its location, or drop the wyverns more easily.’

If only one of them is satisfied, things will work out smoothly.

when you think so

-Suddenly!

An unusually long sword, spinning tightly, passed through the Wyvern’s neck.

Zerech’s gaze was directed there.

‘That child… … .’

Looking at the child who had thrown the sword, his eyes widened slightly.

* * *

Sian manipulated the secret sword and cut down the Wyverns.

The main target is the neck or wings.

If you drop your head, it’s an instant accident, and if you drop your wings, you immediately become a good target for the instructors’ magic.

Either way is an effective hitting point.

‘yes!’

Laby is cutting the wyvern in a circle with the top of Xian’s head as the center.

And Xian himself.

“Kaak!”

He took out the sword ring he had copied and put in his engraving in the past and was dealing with the Lizardmen.

visor!

Dodging their spears and cutting off his arm, Xian looked at Zerech once again.

‘Even though I’m being pushed back by the appearance of the wyvern, the president is not moving.’

Until the Lizardmen, you can think that they trusted the instructors and stayed still.

However, as the wyverns continued to appear, the situation became much more unfavorable.

There is no immediate annihilation on our side or anything like that, but the stamina of our allies is not infinite.

If time drags on, you have no choice but to lose.

Still, the president doesn’t move at all.

This meant two things.

One is the possibility that the president is the culprit of this situation.

‘no… … This possibility is low.’

Aside from the fact that there is no reason for that, it is strange that the president does not move if he is in the dark.

It would be faster to move actively and cut down the instructors.

‘The other one.’

Another possibility is that he is not moving because he is trying to keep the darkness in check.

This is very likely.

However, if it was an existence of the size of Zerech, the flying wyvern could be knocked down with one sword.

However, not even a single sword means that even that one knife is a burden.

It meant only one thing.

‘The culprit is here.’

It wasn’t that he was just summoning and watching from a distance, or that he suddenly escaped.

He remains in this position, hides somewhere, and even at this moment, he is aiming for the president’s neck.

That is why the president is not moving.

I was afraid that if I moved first, I would be counterattacked.

So, the solution to this situation was simple.

‘Find him.’

The solution is to find the culprit of this case, the black magician.

-Stop that!

– Aww! It’s leaking in the back!

In this arena of chaos where countless lizardmen and wyverns, instructors and students are entangled.
