Incompetent Academy and Failed Heroines - Chapter 224



224 – Tournament (6)☆

I pointed at Rita. At the very least, it’s probably a matter of traveling as a pair with the Black Flame Dragon.

“Sister…… “That’s it.”

“Oh, you and the saintess don’t have to worry about that.”

Both Kite and Rosa opened their eyes wide at the refreshing immediate answer. Einman chuckled as if he knew that would happen.

“I had no intention of protecting it from the beginning.”

As Rita knocked for her food, she said that she would still pair up with her and me and refuse with a suitable excuse. It must have been a shock to Kite, who by nature had a hard time deceiving anyone, and Rosa, who knew the Bible to be the truth.

“Jokbal, amppong. “Did you believe we would protect it?”

I ignored the admiration in my ears and smelled the smoke scent that I could sense through my nose.

“Ain, those guys are burning something wet.”

In the distance, smoke was rising from our Yeongchae. The smoke smoke from Orgiola’s Black Flame Dragon spread low and wide. When I saw the sight of a dragon gushing out as if to attack me, I suddenly wanted to check their skills for myself.

“What if I go to the forefront?”

When I asked for permission, he seemed to hesitate for a moment.

“Are you alone?”

“Po, phone phone…… Boo, fire is dangerous.”

“Me too…” … “I think it would be better not to go as the saint said.”

After the two women stopped, Rita sat on a tree branch and looked into the distance.

“Isn’t it better to check?”

“The fire fox is right.”

“Yes, I need to know what the alliance’s capabilities are.”

“Well, since your females are whining, I guess I’ll have to send them away.”

Opinions from above and below are conflicting. I suddenly got the feeling that this discrepancy was due to the difference in perspectives between the soldiers and the people. What is more important: achieving your goal or the safety of your family? Since both sides are right, there is no need to argue.

“Kite, I’ll be back.”

I promise that my family will not be hurt because of this.

“Sister Rosa, let’s pray together.”

Similarly, I am conscious of the weak I must protect.

“When I come back, I’ll make an elk noise, so put the ladder down.”

After coming down from the tree, I ran straight to where No. 31 Yeongchae was. A total of 40 teams participated, but what does it mean that there are 40 Yeongchae instead of 20? It means that the Yeongchae was left empty on purpose. I don’t know what the intention was, but it is clear that all battles are centered around Yeongchae.

─In other words, the moment you become obsessed with Yeongchae, you cannot avoid combat.

This is a structure that must be avoided as a top priority, but if you don’t realize this, you will be wiped out quickly. I patted my tongue and made no sound. It was creeping, but since it was so big it was easy to see, so it crawled over.

“There’s nothing here!”

“What, does that mean it’s an empty Yeongchae?”

“That’s strange, there’s no way the field team started the fire.”

Idiots have been caught. Orgiola’s black flame dragons disappeared. I looked at the ground, but I couldn’t even see any footprints. The only traces left are that the wooden fence appears to have been broken by someone. I don’t know where the circle was, but about three people slowly approached, holding up wooden spears dipped in Kerisha dye.

They reached Yeongchae before they knew it and took a defensive stance.

“There is food!”

“Is there a flag here?”

“What, these guys must have run away.”

If they were a field team, all of them would be capable of fighting, and on the other hand, if they were a field team, four of them would be the maximum fighting force. Judging by the three of them moving around, it seems like it might be the one with Yeongchae. I held my breath and let my eyes adjust to the darkness. Gradually it started to look better.

─Why aren’t the black flame dragons moving?

I looked at him nervously. The enemies were now trying to leave Yeongchae, taking food and the flagpole with them.

─You have no intention of engaging in combat?

While my stomach was burning, I heard a shout from somewhere. As if I wasn’t the only one who heard it, the guys holding wooden spears also entered the Yeongchae again. While everyone was quiet, four men walked cautiously from the other side of the forest.

─They are not black flame dragons.

Suddenly, enemy and enemy became entangled across Yeongchae. Since he is holding the flagpole, he naturally assumes that he is the owner of this place and prepares to attack. Looking at Tae, everyone is talented. Soon the order to advance was given and they slowly approached. It was then.

Rustling──

Another popular rumor was heard. I covered my nose and mouth with both hands.

“Damn it, haven’t we even fought yet?”

There were five. Three groups were entangled with one Yeongchae in between. The enemies, who were looking at the guys crouching like hedgehogs in the direction of Yeongchae, muttered something to each other and surrounded them. The three, whose escape route had already been cut off, were protecting someone else’s flag in a very meager mountain hut.

“Boy, did you see it?”

─Surprise!

It was Aizen. It came crawling just like me, but I was so focused on the front that I couldn’t look behind me.

“Are you aiming for this from the beginning?”

“Of course, dispersing the enemy’s power is the basis of tactics.”

Kkekekekeuk, the idiotic laughter was no longer funny. What should I say to these guys? There is a corner that looks like a turtle buried in the mud. It stays dumb the entire time without revealing its presence, but then bites the bullet at a really important moment.

“Look, this is the fight of our Black Flame Dragon.”

“There is no style.”

Nine faced three. The side guarding Yeongchae was quickly annihilated. Everyone was crushed by wooden spears and became unable to fight. According to the regulations, only Kerisha dye needs to be applied, but it was a more ruthless touch than necessary.

“Well, if this happens, what will happen to those two forces?”

Aizen was muttering, so I couldn’t help but say something.

“Since I’m in hiding, I want you to be quiet.”

“Ah, boy…… “I’m sorry you have such a weak attitude.”

“You could get caught.”

“Even if you are an ally, you can’t forgive the belittling words of Orgiola’s Black Flame Dragon, right?”

“No, let’s just shut up and see.”

Despite what I said, I kept relaying alone, and one of the nine turned towards us.

“Hey, it seems like I keep hearing talking from over there?”

“Let’s check it out!”

─Wow, I’m having a hard time because of this crazy alliance bastard.

Immediately they come rushing towards the bushes where we are hiding. A tournament is a mock battle. So inwardly, I looked down on my enemies’ skills. However, if you participate here, in other words, you have no rivals in the academy. I had to choose between quickly breaking free and running away or resisting until the end. I couldn’t be stupid like this.

─I have to go back.

Only Ain and I are able to fight in Heoden’s Boar. We were the queen and castle of the chessboard. If they lose this, they will have to worry about being eliminated early, let alone surviving the tournament.

“I’m going to run away, so you can survive on your own.”

Nevertheless, when she told him to call her whenever she needed help, Aizen pushed her own long bangs behind her.

“I ended up seeing something like that.”

─This crazy bastard just needs to be exposed, so he’s dragging me along too?

The leader of the damn alliance put his hands on the floor and raised his body as if he was going to bounce. All nine people were startled by the figure that appeared from the darkness. Damn it, I couldn’t escape, so I got up and stood next to him. Aizen was short, so no matter who looked at me, I was bound to get more attention.

“What are they doing?”

“I thought you were hiding?”

Aizen took a step forward, putting her gloves on her hands.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you guys.”

As I stood behind with the intention of running away, Aizen turned her head and looked at me.

“Right, Captain?”

─f*ck, these bastards were so tough.

“I think that guy is the leader!”

“Okay, I guess we can take care of the big guy first?”

“Well then, we’ll take care of the little guy.”

“Once we finish this job, you both will leave here.”

It seems they have reached an agreement among themselves. Aizen raised her hand. Then, in the forest, figures were seen jumping up and down. Everyone except Sarah was holding a long wooden spear at their fingertips. Only she, holding a can of Kerisha dye, waited for Aizen’s orders. At that moment, I had a hunch.

─These guys are real cutthroats.

The fact that they responded immediately to a single hand gesture in this darkness meant that they had been working together for a long time. Renji, who looked like a double-headed man, had serious eyes. The nameless guys didn’t come right away, but slowly formed a siege.

“What, there are six?”

Among the guys who tried to attack us, the leader-like guy muttered.

“Sera, the captain wants to negotiate.”

─You bastard, you keep selling me out?

Aizen spoke in a voice that was close to a soft voice. Sarah, carrying a container of Kerisha dye, approached her and saw her five men.

“This is a simple arithmetic problem.”

Suddenly, black flame dragons protected her surroundings. Even at first glance, it felt like they were well trained, and that alone gave them an intimidating feeling.

“There are six of us, there are four over there. “If this is the case, who should the five of us ally with?”

He induces betrayal by saying that four is an even number that is perfect for sharing.

“Hey, kids, do you think that will convince you?”

The guy with four people shouted, but the tide was already on the line. The leader of the five turned the tip of his spear.

“I know how to do arithmetic too, right?”

“Okay, you already ate another one.”

The game changed instantly. Aizen ran rashly and blocked the retreat of her enemies.

“Captain, this way!”

“Hey, do it in moderation?”

I also ran and held on to the corner of the road, and this created a situation where the four of us were surrounded. The three who were lying on the floor also giggled and said that it went well. The situation has already turned. Aizen asked me to take her command.

I raised my right arm just as I did when I interacted with Heoden’s cadets. For the sake of the alliance, there was no reason why he couldn’t pretend to be the leader for a moment. However, since I don’t have Kerisha dye, will I gain anything from defeating the enemies?

“Attack!”

No fewer than eleven people surrounded the four.

I made them unable to resist by just stoning them. The black flame dragons fought better than I expected. Immediately after defeating two of the four, Aizen joined the battle. He drove the victory machine and continued to give orders.

“Let’s keep attacking!”

It was an immediate betrayal. They told me to participate too, so I jumped in. As six people were fighting against five, the battle was sluggish. Sarah grabbed a container of Kerisha dye and poured it over, making a mess of both of them.

The three ran away. The rest all ran away, but they will be eliminated by tomorrow morning anyway. The battle was over in no time. The guys sprawled out on the floor looked blankly at me and Aizen. One of them raised his hand and asked a question.

“We are mentors, where are you from?”

Aizen pointed at me.

“Captain, tell me where it is.”

“Heoden.”

Aizen smiled at his enemies and lowered his bangs. He looked at the moon and thought nonsense again.

“It’s a nice view.”

─Don’t be fooled, I’m just pretending to be an asshole.

I had to go back immediately and report to Ain about our alliance. I’ve been through a bunch of reddits who work like these guys. Guys who have solid skills but cannot be trusted due to their lack of morals always end badly.
