I Will Be the Only One Who Heals at the Prison Academy - Chapter 439



439 – A Little Early Coming of Age Day #3

439 – Coming of Age Day a little early #3

Cain Arkwright.

The biggest part of what that name meant to me was ‘death.’

Cain’s name is synonymous with death.

If I don’t get away from him, the hunt will end and I will just die like an abandoned dog.

The reason I broke off my engagement with Victorica was to escape from this man’s influence─.

─The reason I collected items and devoted myself to leveling up and training was to defeat this man.

Victor’s life.

Approximately 18 years old, all of his time as a minor was filled with the dust of training and fighting to overcome Cain.

But death is something you cannot escape from.

Even if you run away, you will meet at the end of time.

In particular, such encounters come without notice or warning.

There was no need for a match date written on a flashy flyer or a grand, large stadium.

There was no promise.

An unplanned meeting.

However.

Cain said.

“You’re late, kid.”

His calm question felt like he was scolding a guest who was five minutes late for dinner he had invited. It may not be possible, but I feel like he is somehow worried about my well-being.

So I also gave a simple answer.

“It came rather quickly. “I think if it’s a little later, the old man won’t be able to overcome his age and will leave first.”

“Wow, it was a long preparation. So are you done saying goodbye to your loved ones? “What do you pray for when you die and go to Valhalla?”

“Not required. Because I won’t die in this fight. So I’ll give it back exactly as it was said, Cain Arkwright.”

I untied the knot of the sword sheath from my waist.

He looks at the man, holding the sword in its sheath tightly in his hand.

Cain still had time to spare.

Even though he and I are the same height now, I feel like his eyes are still hovering over my head, as if he’s looking down on everything.

Cain said.

“Did the coward who ignored her sadness even after her father’s death her out of fear for his own life come back as a proud person in just 10 years? “I am so sad to have to take back the life of the woman who took so long from me.”

Hwaaa-.

At that time, a wind blew from somewhere and interrupted Cain’s words.

Sssss-.

The flowers and leaves in this secret garden are shaking wildly.

The beauty of the flower petals rising into the sky with the wind and touching the bright moonlight is something that catches your eye even in this situation.

There was not a single cloud in the sky.

A dazzling full moon.

Flower.

And a knife.

Actually, there is no need to talk more than this.

That was the reason why the conversation between me and Cain did not engage like an idling motor.

Hwaaa-.

It was when the wind blew again and white flower petals began to flutter everywhere.

Slurring-.

The one-eyed man slowly drew his sword.

Ironically, the appearance of skill, without emotion, like repetitive work that had already been done several times, seemed artistic.

Pot-.

Cain said, slashing the tip of his sword in an arc diagonally.

“Sweetheart, you are proof of my foolish actions. “It would have been better to cut it down and nip it in the bud 10 years ago, but in fact, it’s not too late.”

━Doo-dung──.

For some reason, I feel like I’m starting to hear a familiar BGM in my head.

Magnificent and solemn harmony between men and women.

A low-pitched string instrument.

The sound of the drum.

The title is ‘Geomseong’, other name is ‘Jangsonggok’.

Exclusive theme for Cain Arclight boss battle.

“So try resisting. “I am from destiny─.”

When this familiar song ends.

One of the two will become a cold corpse.

「The last fun boss battle strategy, Sword Saint – Cain Arclight (Mr.)!

As I’m writing this, I’ve already reached the end of the boss battle.

There are a lot of bosses in D&A, so I was wondering when I would use them all, but time seems to go by so quickly.

Probably starting next week, I’ll be busy with my part-time job and all that, so I won’t be able to post much and I’ll have less time to play games.

I’ll stop talking nonsense here haha

Cain Arclight is a boss who has worked hard to create.

Unlike an old game, the directing is quite good.

When I first saw the effect of Cain’s ‘Type 7 World Slash’ splitting my monitor in half, I got tired of it.

We also paid a lot of attention to the BGM.

When the main sound starts playing as the battle begins, it still gives me goosebumps.

From noble mtl dot come

Anyway.

The battle with Cain is actually a simple topic.

You can win by using everything available, including the skills you have learned so far, the consumables you have collected, the items you are equipped with, and the levels of your party members.

So to speak, it is the final evaluation chapter.

Then, first phase─」.

An article I wrote a long time ago flashes back to my mind in an instant.

It’s because my mind popped up for a moment.

Kaaang, kaaang-!

Every time the sharp sound of metal hitting metal rang in my ears, my memory was randomly flashing back to the past.

It was that big of a shock.

“I guess I haven’t been able to break the habit of thinking about other things with the person in front of me?”

Cain asked.

Before I knew it, I saw him with a lead sword at his waist and I quickly covered his face with the sword.

“One meal, cutting through the light.”

Eerie-.

I felt like something was grazing my neck.

Paaang-!

With a flash of light, my body flies away and gets hit by a flower petal.

After that, I had to desperately resist the countless slashes aimed at the nape of my neck, without even being able to correct my posture.

Kaga River, Kaga River-! Kaga River-!

The metal screams.

Even my hand holding it feels tingly.

“Ugh!”

Strong… !

That was the sword power of Cain that I personally felt.

If Avon’s sword energy, which I had felt a while ago, was as strong as striking down with a pillar of steel, there was no way to explain what Cain’s sword energy was like and what it was.

One thing is certain: if you don’t come to your senses, you will die without any real way to resist.

“You little brat is holding up better than I thought. How long do you plan on defending yourself?”

There is no room for Cain to attack with countless attacks.

Apnea training.

I don’t even know how I’m blocking it all.

Suddenly, it occurred to me that in rhythm games, the thought of ‘How am I doing this?’ Was taboo. It was that moment.

“Have you lost your concentration already? It’s an obvious loophole.”

Sigh-!

Something cool, sharp, and hot like fire passed by my side.

Blood is splattered.

It didn’t take long for me to feel that it was my life force itself.

“Did you instinctively avoid critical points? But the bleeding will be heavy. “You are just dying now.”

Cain spoke to me as we distanced ourselves for a moment.

Damn it-.

I took a deep breath as I watched him elegantly brushing off the blood from the tip of his sword.

Phase 1 strategy.

In Phase 1, Cain uses Arclight swordsmanship with only the sword worn at his waist

It is a very powerful time in itself.

It is a good match compared to the 128 patterns that will appear in Phase 2 and Phase 3.

Therefore, if the attacker does not apply as much damage as possible in the 1st phase, he will suffer in the 2nd and 3rd phases.

Party destruction is no joke.

Of course, I don’t have a party right now, so I just die alone.

Cain said.

“Drink the potion you brought with you. If anything, you can call your girls and hide under the width of your skirt. Use all the items you have. “You can’t surpass me unless you use every means at your disposal, kid.”

It’s similar to the line I remember.

This is a line that appears when one effective hit has been inflicted on the main character’s party.

In the game, Cain says something similar to this and takes a turn.

It gives the main character party time to reorganize.

It could be said to be a gimmick that well utilizes Cain’s ‘arrogance’.

At the same time, it was an honest warning to gamers that they would not be able to surpass Cain unless they exerted their ‘full power’.

Normal users maximize their firepower with buffs, items, potions, etc. At this timing.

You can literally say that he is giving his all.

Sreuk-.

I took out a bottle of potion from my belt.

「Advanced Recovery Potion」.

If you eat it, your injuries will heal.

Clink-.

But I dropped it on the floor and broke the bottle.

Shake all the potions you have on the floor and break them.

Clink, clink, clink, clink-.

It’s quite beautiful how the potions soak the flower petals like red blood.

“What kind of stupid thing is this?”

As I see something that can be called unexpected curiosity blooming in Cain’s single eye, I can only say what I have been thinking for a long time.

“Sword Saint, peak Cain Arclight. Beating you is one-to-one. “It has no meaning unless it is achieved through sword-to-sword combat.”

Without relying on consumables such as potions

Without colleagues to support.

Only my own sword.

With that, you defeat Cain.

Otherwise, even if you win, you cannot be considered a winner.

Cain showing his white teeth

Are you smiling?

No, it seems closer to the form of an animal exposing its fangs in a threatening manner.

“That’s great.”

Cain praised me.

Even under these circumstances, she felt very strange when she received praise from him.

“The difference between a man’s courage and the spirit of a young person is just a page of paper. “You will be remembered as the stupidest person I ever killed.”

Zek-.

Cain spread her hands into the air.

Then, a star like a full moon suddenly appeared in the night sky.

* * *

The party continued even though Victor went to the ‘bathroom’ and did not return.

The time when children with curled tongues lie down one by one, covering themselves with blankets, near the fireplace.

“This Arnoy, I really want to graduate this year… ! I don’t want Arnoy to be left alone anymore…”

“Arnoy, sleep well.”

Nike covered Arnoy’s sleep-talking body with a blanket and returned to the table.

Then I saw Victorica resting her chin, tapping her fingers on the table.

Enio frowned at Victorica.

“Stay still. It’s bustling. If you care so much, you can follow Victor and help him right now.”

“Ha, are you stupid? Even if we went, Viktor would definitely blame us and say something like, ‘It’s meaningless if we don’t defeat Cain one-on-one!’”

Then Nike laughs.

“Victor, you’re good at imitating your voice! I think Victor would really say that!”

Chuuk-.

Nike lets her pigtails, which had risen up, hang down.

When Enio and Victorica felt puzzled at the sight of him laughing and then becoming depressed, Nike asked coyly in a low voice.

“But, can Viktor really defeat Cain one-on-one? Victoria, what do you think? No matter what, he is your father. What do you think? “Can Victor win?”

“… “I don’t know.”

Victorica barely managed to squeeze out her voice.

She said she didn’t know, but in fact, the result was obvious.

Cain is strong.

Victorica knows that better than anyone else.

His strength lay in ‘perfection.’

Because he was absolutely excellent not only in swordsmanship but in everything else.

Even ‘magic’ is used at a high level.

Although he was from a branch family, he was also from the Arc Light family, which boasted strong magical power.

A man who is perfect in everything – Cain.

He is a man who feels insecure about the swordsmanship he has devoted his entire life to – Victor.

Of course, the current Victor was a man full of variables.

If he walks, he has no choice but to walk there.
