Baek Yang, who was pierced from the back of the head to the ground by Oz, thought blankly for a long time.

“The weather is nice.”

The view of the sky while lying down was pretty.

She was escaping from reality.

“Oh my head… … .”

I don’t know if the headache I’m feeling right now is from a hangover or a wound.

I knew Oz was strong. I heard that she was on the same level as the [Goblin King] she served.

Still, he was there.

Because Oz was sealed with higher level magic as a penalty.

then it’s no big deal

If you have an intermediate level of magic, you can block it enough. And if you approach it, you can win.

Because wizards whose bodies are as weak as glass windows are weak when there is no potential to protect them.

──Yes, that’s what I thought.

“Okay… … .”

My head feels like it will break.

Baek Yang broke into a cold sweat remembering the moment when her head was helplessly stuck.

In one hit, 8% of the defensive magic on the cloak was blown away.

It was a frightening shame for being physically attacked by a wizard.

‘Is that really what a pure mage is? … ?’

I knew there was magic that strengthened my physical abilities.

I’ve seen it firsthand.

But that also has a degree.

Most of them were used by wizards who were too lazy to move, or by warriors who used magic as an aid.

“I’m breaking all the alcohol… … .”

But Oz was different.

Although he was a pure wizard, there was no degree. It was to the point of breaking alcohol at the powerful blow that pierced the cloak with defensive magic.

“Um… … .”

Baekyang thought about what it would be like if he hadn’t backed down.

could have won

No matter how great his physical ability was, Oz’s movement was still just a beginner.

If she had been serious in the first place, she wouldn’t have been rolling on the ground like this.

‘But that’s… … .’

However, I couldn’t resist the ghastly eyes that met me the moment my head was stuck.

Just that look was enough to take away the fighting spirit from her.

‘I couldn’t resist.’

It was just a test, but the thought that if I had fought, I might have died would not leave my head.

Fear took away normal judgment from her as if imprinted on it.

“Whoa… … .”

Baekyang stood up.

Practice isn’t over yet.

Only by lying down like this will you get a miserable score.

I tend not to care about grades, but isn’t it hurting my pride as a member of ＜Imae Mang-ryang＞ to end it like this?

At that moment, he felt the presence of a prey that could not even hide his presence.

“First of all, even one person… … .”

She immediately made a weapon out of ice and charged at my opponent.

Her figure was obscured by the backlight, and there was a certain height difference between the two.

It’s a perfect surprise.

“oh… … .”

“Well?”

bang!

However, her surprise attack was blocked in vain.

Of course, her attack power wasn’t that high for her belonging to the Guardian occupation group.

However, the opponent was receiving Baekyang’s weapon with his hand.

I couldn’t even imagine that it would be blocked so easily.

“I thought there was Oz, but what are you?”

Blazing red hair and yellow eyes reminiscent of birds of prey glared at Baekyang annoyedly.

At that moment, Baekyang was able to recognize who the opponent was.

It’s not that he couldn’t hide his presence. The hunter was not her.

The person in front of me was the flame itself that attracted the fire moths.

‘… … My practice score is bad.’

Kwajik-!

The [King of Fist] who followed Oz.

Alexios’ fist shattered Baekyang’s ice shield like a window.

“It’s big?!”

And that merciless fist subsequently lodged in her abdomen.

* * *

Even though he was extremely hiding mana, he was surrounded.

It is certain that Oz’s Luck stat is low.

I’m afraid I’ll be caught already.

[Erosion degree 20%]

Even so, it seems rather shallow.

If it’s not just Baekyang, there are too many idiots trying to attack me.

Was the prejudice I planted too perfect?

Archers and wizards try to snipe from a distance, while warriors and guardians rush at me.

In the first place, there is no point in sniping as long as I have activated [Contemplation] and my location has been discovered.

What’s more, the idiots who run into me have a foolish sense of being chosen that they can beat wizards if they close the distance.

“It’s funny.”

“Heuk!”

It twists the arm of the warrior who appears to be at the level of an R-rank and shoots [Magic Bullets] into the torso in succession.

A student who lost 50% of his defensive magic in an instant was transferred to a nearby professor on the spot.

“Whoa… … .”

I challenged Gerard several times for this plan and fell down, revealing my weakness.

The aftermath has already come out.

Idiots who normally wouldn’t even try began to look down on me after seeing my weakness.

It’s intentional, but it doesn’t feel very good. Could it be fun to be treated like a laughing stock?

intermediate magic

[Parma Shield]

bang!

The [Parma Shield], which creates a small round shield, blocks the sniping at me.

At first, I thought it would be useless because the area to be hit was small, but once I learned it, it was better than I thought.

For me, who knew the opponent’s position from the beginning with [Contemplation], it was more efficient to block it with pinpoint rather than using a needlessly large shield.

beginner magic

[Wind Piercing]

Throws wind-attribute magic in the direction the sniper just came from.

It has the fastest attack speed among beginner magic and has a penetrating effect.

“Wow?!”

Right after that, I hear the screams of the opponent who was hit by magic.

Of course, even beginner magic can’t subdue it in one blow.

However, the opponent took advantage of the panicked gap to buy enough time.

intermediate magic

[stalagmite]

bang!

As soon as he hit the ground with the completed compositional formula at his toes, huge stalagmites sprouted from the place where the opponent was.

Even though earth attribute magic was magic that utilized attributes, it was more often included in phenomenon magic.

It seems to be because it is much more efficient to induce a phenomenon in the nearby land than to create magic using mana.

“Now!”

At that moment, three students who were hiding nearby jumped out and brandished their weapons at me.

I knew he was hiding in the first place, so there’s no reason to panic.

I put the magic I had prepared right away into two of the students who jumped out and subdued them. I succeeded in getting close to me, and I reached out my left hand as if to stop the other.

“Caught… … !”

Then, the opponent’s eyes twinkled and he stretched out his arm toward my left hand.

“I’ll have to think about revealing too much weakness in the future.”

The opponent was aware of what kind of habit I had when I was beaten by Professor Gerard.

It’s not even that creepy.

I quickly retrieve the hand I was about to extend.

“uh?”

That was my intention from the beginning, so I was able to retrieve it faster than the opponent could reach it.

Then, it kicks with all its might towards the opponent who is unconscious. He seems to be a student who wants to be a guardian, so this should be fine.

“No, is it rather lacking?”

“Yeah… … ? No, do you think that’s enough? It hurts a lot.”

“No, you are not enough.”

beginner magic

[Little Bom]

After confirming the kill, he leaves the place leisurely.

With this, I knocked out all the students in ambush near me.

At least there are no enemies nearby.

“Should I rather go after Noah?”

Wouldn’t it be advantageous if we could send Eleanor to another professor’s location before Gerard approached?

“no… … .”

I thought about that for a moment, but then I had to shake my head.

Gerard is a ticking time bomb.

Even if he escapes now, he will one day pour out his selfish anger toward Eleanor.

Then, at least now is the best time to know when it will explode.

In all likelihood, Gerard will be near Eleanor.

Furthermore, it was said that students who had exhausted more than half of their defense magic would be sent to a nearby professor.

But Gerard is not a professor in the role of supervisor.

So, he must be looking for a chance with a magic tool to limit the magic of the cloak. Retiring Noah prematurely could cause more trouble.

* * *

Fortunately, Eleanor, who was able to join Lucia, was moving cautiously to retrieve the items she had hidden in the practice field the day before.

“Noah, will the plan really work? Are you worried about something?!”

“It’s okay Lucia, if this is it, we’re 100% number one?”

Lucia hugged her shoulders and muttered exaggeratedly.

This is why it is not enough to be a timid cat.

As expected, the main role on this stage is only you.

Eleanor did not hide that blatant self-consciousness.

Eleanor always had to stand out.

I thought it would be nice if everyone was staring at her in the crowd. I wanted to become a celebrity.

Because it was scary.

I don’t want anyone to forget me anymore.

So, even if someone forgets her existence, there is someone next to her who will imprint her existence again.

She played pranks to be recognized by everyone.

“Whoop whoop! I bet the professors didn’t know that we stole the cloak, right? Once we retrieve that, we are invincible!”

So, Eleanor played a joke. Accidents and cowardly methods attracted people’s attention.

The same goes for this practice.

You have to win. By winning, you have to recognize the existence of Eleanor.

‘I’ll say I’m here, I exist.’

No, Eleanor didn’t really care if she didn’t win.

If only she could imprint her existence on someone, that was enough.

“And if you wear only three layers at a time, people won’t notice.”

“By the way, what if someone appears who can simultaneously blow off the defense magic on those 3 cards? No, what if I get caught before then?!”

“Ah, where would such a person be? You won’t notice.”

“here.”

“… … .”

“… … .”

While Eleanor and Lucia were on their way to the place where they hid the item, they bumped into someone.

A person who exudes an arrogant atmosphere with black hair and chilling blue eyes.

Oz, Eleanor’s teacher.

“Here it is.”

“S-Master… … ?”

“So, you guys were thinking of having an accident like that? I’m surprised it’s such a stupid plan.”

Eleanor still remembered it clearly.

That day, the trivial conversation overheard in the classroom was not diluted in my head at all.

“How are you here… … ?”

“Because monitoring troubled children is also the job of the guidance department.”

Oz’s words that he would be watching over her made her feel strange.

As if it was stuck in the heart, traces of it seemed to flow through the blood and through the whole body.

“Let’s run away, Noah!”

“uh… … yes!”

Eleanor followed after Lucia, grumbling that she wished they wouldn’t keep an eye on me until now.

‘The splendid stage prepared so far is a mess!’

I was really surprised by the sudden appearance. I was startled and thought my heart would explode.

“All right, see you next time! teacher!”

“Kyaaagh! Noah focus! Focus please!”

Yes, my heart trembled because I was surprised to the end.

Because he is running away with all his might, avoiding the pouring magic.

‘Yes, it’s all because of it.’

Eleanor thought so.

* * *

Getting rid of Eleanor and Lucia was easier than I thought.

I wondered what kind of accident was going to happen, but I sat down with a plan that wasn’t even funny. Perhaps Eleanor’s plan was 100% discovered the moment the ownerless cloak was sent.

Lucia knew my plan, so she induced Eleanor to run away.

“I’m glad you seem to be taking good care of me no matter what.”

Maybe that’s why I stayed near Eleanor even though I knew I was going to intervene.

He was probably preparing for an eventuality.

“Well then… … .”

The problem is the existence of Gerard, who started to carefully move his feet while looking at Eleanor and the others.

was also nearby.

When I checked with [Contemplation], I saw that he was aiming for an opportunity with a lot of suspicious magic tools all over his body.

There were not only items to neutralize Tia’s magic tools, but also magic tools to erase traces and magic tools to kill.

Just breaking into the practice room with such a thing already is a red-handed criminal.

So here’s the player.

[The Ruler of Mana Lv. One]

The battle has already begun.

Gerard does not know that I have discovered his existence.

He must be overconfident in the dubious black robe, a magic tool that hides his presence.

Didn’t I think that the origin of the magic tool would be found out by me since it was ＜Spellage＞?

Or was it that he was so blinded by anger that he couldn’t think?

“Well, as long as it’s in this situation, it won’t matter either way.”

My first dagger that announces the start of the fight is advanced lightning magic used by SR-rank characters.

[Thunder Calling]

Quarreung!

In an instant, dark clouds begin to cover the sky.

Was the process too fast? Gerard noticed the difference.

I didn’t know that [The Ruler of Mana]’s unexpected weakness would be revealed here.

I can’t help but notice

For now, let’s be content with the fact that we’ve figured out something new.

Quad de de de de deuk!

Lightning starts to rain from the sky.

Lightning sweeps the earth as if God is about to punish humans.

Gerard’s figure is obscured by dust and cannot be seen.

However, [Contemplation] does not miss his movements.

I never thought I’d be able to take it down with the first attack in the first place.

Moreover, there is no way that you will greet me silently now that you have noticed the harbinger of magic.

intermediate magic

[Storm Blade]

As soon as I deploy [The Ruler of Mana], I shoot the prepared intermediate magic in the direction of Gerard.

The blade of the rough wind blew away the dust and headed for Gerard.

bang!

But as if it were natural, Gerard blocked the attack. No, it would be more accurate to pulverize it with a fist.

Gerard recognized my clear hostility at this point.

He started to walk all the way towards me.

to avoid magic.

But that was also expected.

Smash the ground and deploy earth attribute phenomenon magic.

intermediate magic

[stalagmite]

It doesn’t matter if you can’t hit Gerard.

He creates stalagmites with the feeling that he is installing obstacles in the place where his movements will be directed and limiting the direction in which he can move.

This will make your movements more monotonous.

beginner magic

[Wind Piercing]

Throws high-speed magic at Gerard in succession. He approaches, crushing spells with his fists.

As expected, it is difficult to give proper damage with beginner magic.

And for an instant, a light was seen in his fist.

[Space Barrier Lv. One]

Gerard’s attack, which shattered all of my beginner magic, is blocked by the [Space Barrier] and disappears.

There is a brief lull between Professor Gerard and me.

The purpose is to buy time.

It is an implicit lull because both sides needed time.

“… … What is this? Oz students.”

“Isn’t it the lead department’s role to stop suspicious people in advance? Professor Gerard.”

“hahahaha, there seems to be a misunderstanding. Although this cloak looks suspicious, it is actually a magic tool prepared for the test… … .”

It’s a very natural lie.

Despite the fact that there was no way the supervisors had such a suspicious magic tool, he was saying it as if it were natural.

Even in the sudden situation, that smile still doesn’t collapse.

An actor, not a professor, must have been a good fit.

“It is admirable.”

But I have no intention of leaving the mask alone.

[Space Barrier]’s cooldown has already ended, so there’s no need to delay it anymore.

So, I will omit all the troublesome methods. It’s annoying to float.

“Then why don’t you swear an oath of mana right here? ‘I’m not going to go after Eleanor von Chrysos.’”

“… … .”

Did you swear on mana if you just twist it?
