“You really are crazy beyond words and normal comprehension, Griffin!” Sylvester replied.As the plan of Kendrick is not only absurd and reckless, but it is also impossible since they are still students. And they won’t even last a minute out there. But Kendrick made Sylvester choose between being eaten alive or not giving up and try every idea they have to survive.“Besides. It is only a kilometer away from the eastern gates so—”“Only?! Are you out of your mind? Out there, we won’t survive, our experience is too low, we won’t make it!” Sylvester pointed out.But it was no use on arguing with Kendrick, especially when he just made up his mind. However, the plan is just plain stupidity, and only a dumb person would do such thing, and Kendrick is one of them. Because who the hell would go out the walls without the proper experience. Only slayers have been out the walls for a certain amount of time, but this time is different. Being out there means they are just literally speeding up the
The next morning, the two went up and go their way to the east. Since they chose to stay the night because of exhaustion, it is already morning. But the thing is, it is morning, yes, but the surroundings was just dark enough to be considered as night. The two walked their way, and as they walk, they just have their guards up. Kendrick on the other hand is clearly struggling to keep his guard up due to the pain of his injury. He caught a fever last night and his injuries are just in unimaginable pain because of the coldness of the surroundings. Kendrick fees like being stabbed multiple times, and the blade have pain enhancers. In any case, he forced himself and will not let Sylvester know about this.Meanwhile, the battle at the east is now over, swordsmen and women are now resting after defeating almost all the demons inside, but some escaped and went into hiding. However, even though it is already finished, the other superiors are not letting anyone to go away as an attack is very po
Kendrick is now being operated in a medical tent at the eastern borders. Since the city is under a total lockdown, even hospitals are closed. And it was a good thing that some swordsmen and women are experts in medical works, that is why Kendrick is having a successful operation. Meanwhile, Sylvester is being questioned for their action, as they literally violated a law when they went out the walls without having a slayer license. The punishment for that law breaking act of them would be 15 years in prison, or even execution at worst. However, since Sylvester told them that they had no choice but to go around to survive, the others just let this one slide and asked everybody in this area to keep their mouths shut about this matter. But still, everyone is just surprised to see those 2 inexperienced students successfully without getting themselves killed at the first place. Because even the pros do not dare to go out there as outside the walls is just way out of their leagues. Only the
The whole swordsmen and women community got immediately alerted as some have confirmed that there is something weird going on in the academy. And another is that the students have not been evacuated yet, instead, the school has gone into lockdown which prevents the students from leaving. And even if they can, it is too dangerous as shady people are now in that academy. Kendra was worrying about her mother, but the swordsmen and women have prevented them and ordered them to not follow as it is for their safety also. They have been exposed to battle last time, and the swordsmen and women won’t let it happen again. This time, they will be the ones to fight this battle to save the others. And besides, the commander pointed out that the two aces of this group of students are too tired and the other was injured to even turn his body properly, so, it would be best for them to just stay put for now and wait for further instructions. Thousands of sword users are now heading towards the academy
With that revelation, Kendrick was glad that his theories were right all along. It was not a waste that he was suspicious of the headmistress. The others were also shocked, because even though they don’t pay attention to demonology class, they know that name. Because Damnatio is known as the wannabe demon king. And that demon is also the one responsible for making a giant hole at the western borders. He came here 10 years ago, and was defeated by priests, that is what is said in the books. However, there is more to it than what is in the books. Michaela told them, that the headmistress had revealed something to her when she was drunk. It turns out that the headmistress was one of the 10 people who sealed the demons under the school, since swordsmanship haven’t reached this yet 10 years ago, they were the ones who sealed the demons with the help of some newbie swordsmen. When they defeated and sealed it, they decided to bury him underground, however, the insane amount of dirt will be r
It is now the evening of August the 2nd. Kendrick and the other students are now resting inside a tent as they are waiting for updates from the swordsmen and women who marched towards the academy. Kendrick was still eating a lot,“You just emptied a month’ worth of food, Kendrick. I think you should stop.” Michaela says as they looked at Kendrick who was wolfing down a roasted chicken.“Are you kidding me? I need energy, so that if we are tasked to battle, then I would have enough to release my full potential. And eating will help me regain all the energy and power I lost.” Kendrick argued as he continues to eat.But he can feel that he is almost done as he is feeling that he is getting full. Just 5 more servings, and he is done with it. However, Kendrick pointed out that there have been no updates from the main force ever since they left. There seems to be a problem. Jonathan then pointed out that the main force is not obligated to update them, especially when they know that their u
The headmistress swung her sword and yelled,“Holy Sword Style: Severe Judgement!”And then, a white aura blade came out of her sword and hurtled towards the demon. The demon simply blocked it with this insane aura defense of him. However, what he did not know is that the attack was basically a bomb. The aura blade exploded, and hundreds of mini blades plummeted towards the demon who got scratched by all of it. That is the first cheap shot but clean hit of the headmistress so far. And what she just did just pissed the demon off even further,“You wretch!” bellowed the demon as he then extended his aura into tentacles and then tried to grab a hold of the headmistress.However, despite her old age, the headmistress still got style as she was dodging each and every tentacle the demon was sending her. Her agility, speed and flexibility can still be compared to the young ones, but the thing is, she is clearly old. She may be able to do these kinds of stuff, but she can’t keep it up. And be
The whole academy was engulfed in purple flames, the explosion blasted half of the academy into smithereens, and the one on the ground and was utterly defeated was none other than the headmistress herself. Lying on the ground face first and was bleeding heavily. But she has no regrets, nothing about this makes her regret, nothing in her life will she regret something. Just the regret of not seeing the rise of the promised 6 into power. This feeling, it was all so familiar to her. The goddess of despair is once again smiling at her as she experiences yet another loss. She can remember it clearly, 53 years ago, a war broke out because of a conflict between two powerhouse nations who has a hunger for more power. Half of the world was involved in this, and there was no way one nation can stay neutral because of the conflict. Mrs. Hilty and her family, lived in Australia, but since it was also involved in the war, chaos happened. A year of war in Sydney, devastation followed. The headmistr
