Surviving as an Academy Black Magician - Chapter 110
– Frey Caligo, the eldest son of former Sword Master Halton Caligo.
Do you know why your only father is getting weaker by the day? War wounds? An incurable disease that even the famous healing magicians of the empire cannot cure? All wrong.
-It is because of the demon constantly injected into his body. There is a demon worshiper among the servants of Count Caligo’s family.
He is ruining the body of the family head. It was confirmed that the food he ate and the medicine he took were constantly poisoned with condensed demonic energy.
I have solid proof. If you want to know who the culprit was who ruined your father’s body, come to the warehouse behind Class A.
– However, you must come alone.
Do not reveal this to anyone, but only Frey Caligo and let yourself come here alone.
The contents of the note played in Frey’s head.
The owner of that voice was Sardin Rundel.
It was Liddell who handed over the note, but the moment she read it, she instinctively remembered Sardine’s face.
Could this be the identity of the ominous foreboding I had been hearing until now?
Standing in front of the warehouse, she slowly caught her breath.
“Sup… Whoa… … .”
At this rate, it seemed like there would be an accident.
It was her father who told her to stay calm in times like this.
She was taking deep breaths and controlling her emotions, having been taught that nothing is more stupid than doing something in a fit of rage.
Gradually, the anger subsides, and reason becomes clear.
since when
To Frey, Sardin Rundel was a friend.
Even though there were differences in status, she still respected him for walking the same path of the sword as her.
But at some point, the two diverged.
We thought we were walking the same road, but now we were staring at each other at the corner of a completely divergent road.
He and she knew that they were on parallel lines.
That I would never be able to walk the same road again.
The point of contact was then the end of that era.
“Why did this happen… … .”
Now, she felt more pity than resentment.
It was possible because I didn’t know anything.
She opened the warehouse door and went inside.
Roman also entered the warehouse while hiding the body of the shadow.
No one here noticed his presence.
Frey looked at Liddell in front and said coldly.
“Is it you? Are you kidding me like this?”
Liddell flinched at the moment due to the life force emanating from her body, but soon came to his senses and answered.
“okay. Frey Caligo. I sent you a note.”
“What on earth were you thinking when you sent this note… ? Do you dare to make fun of Count Caligo? ? Are you asking me to believe that there are demon worshipers among the servants of my family? Don’t try to trick me with false information! They are all like family to me. Do you think those who have been together for so many years will betray your father!”
“Are you sure?”
“… what?”
“I asked if you were really sure. Do you really guarantee that there won’t be a single traitor among the servants of Count Caligo? Do you think Halton Caligo, the sword master who once represented the Empire, has been bedridden until now only because of the wounds he received in battle?”
During the conversation, Frey suddenly felt a sense of incongruity.
This must be the first time we’ve had a conversation like this, but it felt like we had an experience like this.
A sense of déjà vu.
‘What is this feeling… … ? Have I ever been here… ?’
no.
It can’t be.
I’m definitely here for the first time today. So what?
This feeling… ? Is it just my misunderstanding… ?
“okay. Judging from that expression, you seem to understand it to some extent.”
Frey stared at Liddell with ferocious eyes.
“Don’t put your father’s name in your mouth.”
“Don’t be pretentious. Don’t you know too? that something is strange. What is written on the note is true. I know which of the servants in Count Caligo’s family is a demon worshiper.”
“What do you want?”
“Dalian. If you win through sparring with me, I’ll tell you who the rat hiding in Count Caligo’s family is.”
“Is that enough?”
“under! Don’t you think you’re going to lose?”
Frey didn’t answer.
‘Again. This scene is definitely in my memory… … .’
As time goes by, the feeling of deja vu is getting worse.
The conversation from just now was clearly lingering in her head.
An indescribable feeling of discomfort covered his whole body.
‘What the hell… … ? Is it magic… … ?’
The more this happened, the more Frey couldn’t help but be confused.
However, Liddell perceived her differently. He thinks she is ignoring him.
‘The unlucky boy. How dare you ignore me? Is it just an S class?’
Even though she is the son of a sword master, she was a new class that was just born here at the academy, and she herself was an A class.
If so, it was right to do it even if I ignored it.
“okay. I feel like I need to press down on that arrogant nose to clear my mind. There are conditions. If you lose in Dalian with me, leave the academy on your own feet.”
“i get it.”
Liddell pulled out the sword he was wearing at his waist.
It was not comparable to a famous sword, but it was well maintained and had a fairly sharp edge.
“Pull out your sword.”
Frey pulled out the rusty sword he had used in the gymnasium.
The quality itself is good, but the blade has become dull due to long use.
“Are you kidding me? Are you going to fight me with just that kind of sword?”
“… It’s none of your business, is it? Shut up and swing your sword.”
Normally, she would never use such harsh words, but now she was very alert.
The story of her family and her father, and the mysterious feeling of deja vu that continues to haunt her, made her extremely sensitive.
I’ve calmed down my emotions at best, but my irritation soars again.
‘… … Let’s calm down. No matter how angry he is, the opponent is a classmate from the academy. I have to adjust my strength moderately so that there is no accident.’
Liddell gritted his teeth and muttered softly.
“… Have no regrets.”
The two swords collided.
At first glance, it seemed that Liddell was overpowering one-sidedly, but that was a big mistake.
In fact, his sword was unable to hit even one effective blow, and he was constantly cutting through the empty air.
However, Liddell himself did not know that fact and was rather confident of his victory.
Even though he used mana and attacked, Frey’s body was in a state where there was not a scratch.
Eventually, Liddell exhausted all of his stamina.
Without missing the gap, Frey swung his sword diagonally.
──Empty!
“The match is over.”
However, Liddell did not give up and continued to attack.
It was because he couldn’t stand the pressure from Sardin Rundel, who was watching him from behind.
However, no matter how many times it was repeated, the result was the same.
Soon after, he declared surrender.
“… … I lost.”
At the same time, a voice came from the darkness. The owner of the voice was Sardin Rundel.
“I expected it, but seeing it in person is even more devastating.”
Frey looked at him with a calmer face than expected. It was not a big surprise.
Sardin looked at Liddell and said, ignoring her gaze.
“Useless bastard.”
Liddell, who was spouting death with red eyes, suddenly picked up his sword and charged at Frey.
“I have to kill… … . Kill Frey Caligo… … .”
It was a different level of body movement compared to the previous sparring.
──Suddenly!
It happened in an instant.
Both of Liddell’s arms and ankles were cut off and he fell over. The sword fell to the floor and a sharp sound resounded.
Sadin’s face contorted as if he were slain by evil spirits as he watched the scene.
“Who are you?”
“… … .”
A masked man who stood in front of Frey.
It was Roman.
Frey also looked at the man in front of him with a surprised face.
Sardine’s shouts filled with rage hit my eardrums.
“I asked who you are——!”
Of course, Roman was not obliged to answer his questions.
The only thing he was worried about was whether to kill him here and now, or not.
However, according to what his master had told him, it was not the time to kill him yet.
Roman muttered softly to Frey.
“From now on, no matter what the author does, don’t even react and just stay still.”
“Who are you… … .”
And then, in an instant, he disappeared. With the level of those here, they couldn’t see through Roman’s hiding.
In Satan’s eyes he seemed to have literally and suddenly vanished from his sight.
“sh*t!”
Demonic energy rose from his body as he spat out curse words. Seeing this, Frey exclaimed in surprise.
“That’s Margie… … !?”
As Sardine reached out for Frey, pitch-black magi fired at her.
“The Curse of Grief.”
Embarrassed, Frey hurriedly swung his sword, but it was too late.
──Ching!
However, something unexpected happened to no one present.
The circle-shaped barrier that formed around her destroyed the demonic energy that Sardin Rundel had shot.
Sardine shouted in amazement.
“How can you use s*x magic… … !”
From noble mtl dot com
As he said, the pure white membrane surrounding her body clearly contained divine power.
“Here is a demon worshiper! Raphael’s messengers, hurry up and redeem the pagans!”
As soon as he finished his words, the Heretic Questioners rushed in as if they had been waiting.
“Fray Caligo! In the name of the Lord Raphael, I redeem you.”
The Heretic Questioners rushed toward Frey and put restraints on her arms.
Sadin’s face suddenly brightened when he saw the progress. The plan was a little off due to the intervention of an unknown man, but as a result, if he handed it over to the Freyman Church, it was his victory.
Despite this situation, Roman still watched the situation hidden in the dark.
──That moment.
“Let go of that hand. Fools.”
“Who dares to ask Raphael’s messengers… … .”
The Heretic Questioner who heard the voice from behind looked back with an angry face, but after confirming the owner of the voice, he hurriedly lowered his head and was polite.
“… Lord, Bishop?”
A grim-looking woman with an eyepatch on one eye and a small boy with a good impression.
“These bastards are drowning.”
“I’m sorry——!”
“hey. what is your name?”
“Bee, my name is Billy Hammington!”
“okay. Billy Hammington. do you want to follow Aren’t you going to do the right thing?”
“yes? uh, what is that… … .”
Both wore blue cloaks with crosses on them. They were the bishops of the Blue Cross, Airi and Tommy.
Airi strode towards Frey. Then he lifted the rosary from her neck and said.
“Can you see this or not?”
“… Bo, I see.”
“see? Do you see that the eye color is running fine? huh?”
The Heretic Questioner, who introduced himself as a borrower, trembled and asked.
“… … My, what have I done wrong?”
Airi picked it up and smiled.
“What are you doing with your eyes closed? It’s useless. get rid of it? uh?”
“… Sin, sin, sorry!”
Sadin, who had been watching the scene with a bewildered face, shouted with a ferocious face.
“I used to do that, but now even insignificant things are interfering and interfering. I am Sardin Rundel of the Duke of Rundel. If you don’t want to grow your business, stop here… … .”
Airi looked straight at Sardine and said.
“Tommy. Arrest that bastard.”
“yes. sister.”
Tommy approached Sardin and overpowered him in an instant.
The divine power emanating from his hand created a restraining sphere of light and restrained his whole body.
Sadin’s whole body was restrained without even being able to scream. Tommy smiled softly as he gagged Sardine’s mouth.
“town! town!”
“Could you please be quiet? Heretic.”
Puck——!
Sardin’s head swung back with a dull sound.
The power was so strong that Sardine, who aspired to become a knight, fainted at once.
Tommy opened the stunned Sardin’s mouth and pulled out three broken teeth inside.
Then, with a sardin on his back, he approached Airi.
“I have been arrested. sister.”
“Good job.”
Airi grabbed Bill by the hair and put his face toward Frey’s Rosario.
“You bastard priest, can’t you tell this apart? That’s the relic of Cardinal Thomas.”
“… … That, it can’t be.”
“You pitiful bastard. Did you try to turn the human possessing the cardinal’s holy relic into a demon worshiper? Anyway, these days, the cubs are missing. Isn’t that right, Tommy?”
“you’re right. sister.”
Airi looked at the Heretic Questioners and smiled like a devil.
“All of you, come to the church. I have a lot of questions to ask.”
Then he looked at Frey and said.
“Ah, you should follow me as well. no need to be scared Because I want to ask you something.”
Frey nodded with a blank face.
“… … yes.”
As Tommy walked out with a sardine on his back, Airi, standing next to him, said in a playful tone.
“Tommy. But isn’t this a complete uproar to say that the heir of the duchy is a demon worshiper? What if we get sparks? will you protect me?”
“Sister. We are Raphael’s sword. There is no need to think about black things.”
“Anyway, being aware… . uh? But didn’t you just feel like a celebrity?”
“I didn’t feel anything. sister.”
“okay? Is it an illusion… … .”
After they disappeared from sight, Roman moved his feet.
