The Broken Possessors of the Infinite Regression Academy - Chapter 191
Chapter 191 – The Last? – 4
“Surely something similar to last time won’t happen again?”
“Surely it won’t happen twice. This time, Mira is gone, so it’ll be okay.”
“I think so too… … .”
While Leona was receiving information about Mira’s whereabouts from the goddess, Rosaria muttered with a serious expression. The memory of being trapped in time was so vivid.
It was a terrible world where every sensation felt right, but not a breath of wind blew, nothing moved, and nothing could change.
It was fortunate that Mira came to the rescue after a while, but what if she hadn’t? What if Mira had lost, and it was Aria who came looking for her?
All four of them would have starved to death in there, or been beaten to death by that crazy woman until they lost their minds, or been toyed with to the end and died a horrible death.
The endings were all equally horrific. Rosaria shuddered.
“Let’s at least open the window.”
“I think it’s unusual… … .”
Rosaria, who was imagining and feeling anxious, opened the window wide. Laura was looking at Rosaria with a pitiful face.
It was that very moment.
-Kururururung!
As the heavens and earth shook, an ear-splitting explosion rang out and shook the world. With a thud, all the teacups and plates neatly arranged on the table were overturned.
“What, what?! What’s going on now?!”
Rosaria, who barely managed to hold on to the window frame, looked at the window she had just opened. Did Seolma really catch someone? It was a good thing she left the window open.
“……uh?”
As soon as I looked out the window, I noticed something strange. The students passing by all had calm faces. They didn’t seem to feel any vibration or anything.
I checked behind me, wondering if I had misunderstood. The table was a mess with spilled teacups and spilled tea, and the carpet was the same. Leona, Priscilla, Laura, and even Elisier all had puzzled expressions.
I wasn’t the only one who felt that way. I looked outside again. The students were still calm. There was no chaos inside, but outside, they were walking around normally with faces that seemed unfazed.
For a moment, a strange thought crossed Rosaria’s mind, and then all of the Academy’s defensive magic was activated at full power. All of the buildings began to glow blue.
“Is everyone okay?!”
A dimensional gate opened in the empty space. The chairman appeared in a panic. He seemed so desperate that he didn’t even think about holding onto his ridiculously large chest that was shaking in all directions.
“What could it be this time? Could it be that woman again?”
“No. That’s… I think you should look outside.”
Rosaria, completely overwhelmed by the height, timidly pointed outside. The chairman, who was breathing heavily due to excitement, approached the window. The dragon’s overwhelming hearing picked up the rumbling conversation.
However, the content was completely different from what I expected.
-What is this, defensive magic? What happened again?
-Don’t you know? I didn’t feel anything. Did it happen outside?
-Okay. Let’s just avoid it for now. I’m sure he didn’t do this for no reason.
Even if anyone heard it, they would have no idea why the defensive magic was activated. The chairman froze in a daze.
“… …Why is everyone acting like that?”
“I don’t know. We definitely felt it. The room shook and teacups were falling over. But everyone else felt nothing… .”
It was around that time that the communication magic tool responded. Erestica took out a crystal ball from her waist and breathed mana into it. Professor Ingrid’s voice flowed out through the crystal ball that had turned blue.
-You raised the output of your defensive magic to the maximum, but what happened now? If you wish, I will have all the professors immediately go into alert mode.
Erestica answered with a blank expression that she was currently looking into it and then turned off the crystal ball.
It was a vibration so great that it turned the mountain of papers on the desk into a carpet on the floor, yet almost no one actually felt it.
All the kids hereㅡ
“… … I see what happened. It must have something to do with time. That’s why the other students didn’t notice.”
“I had a feeling it might be like that… … .”
Rosaria clutched her head. Then she looked up and looked at Leona.
“Leona, have you heard anything from the Goddess? What is Mira doing now?”
“I was going to tell you anyway. He said he dispelled the thoughts he had attached to Mira. He said he couldn’t tell you the details himself, so you should listen to it yourself.”
“Ugh, this is driving me crazy, seriously! Seriously, something went wrong!”
I thought it was all over, but what is this?
“Like last time, it seems like the influence is only on us, so let’s go somewhere else for now.”
-Kwaaang!
Before Priscilla could finish her words, the world shook again. With a bang, the table flipped over, scattering tea, broken cups, and shards of plates everywhere.
Rosaria almost fell over, even though she was holding onto the window frame, Priscilla completely fell over, Laura almost fell to the floor along with the sofa, and Elisier had to brace herself, eating one of the sofas.
Leona and Erestica were barely able to maintain balance.
But outside, it was still peaceful. Here, furniture was tottering and falling over, a total mess. It was impossible for a dragon to remain so calm in the face of such a shock.
Even if there’s already been chaos, it would have been normal if it happened a long time ago.
‘What the hell is going on…?’
From noble mtl dot com
A meteor shower made of light descended from the sky. At the same time, a volcano made of blue mana erupted from the ground, blocking the meteor shower of light.
A loud noise erupted, and divinity and mana overflowed throughout the heavens and earth.
‘… … !’
A tingling sensation ran across the back of my neck. I jumped back. As soon as I did, the space where I had just been was torn apart.
Immediately afterwards, magic circles grew all around as if to block my escape route. The moment each one hit, they would easily break through the defensive magic I was currently wearing and explode at me.
-Moonlight Inflation.
The edge of the Yong-A Sword formed a crescent moon. The crescent moon soon became a half moon, then a full moon, and then it exploded as I twisted my body and brought the sword down for the last time.
The magic that was about to be activated was cut to pieces by a devastating strike that contained both divinity and mana. The space that was about to be crushed was suppressed, and in return, a terrible explosion occurred. A ringing sound was heard in my ears.
Judging by the size and strength of the shockwave, it was powerful enough to completely destroy a mansion.
A spear filled with divinity flew into the empty space as magic exploded. I wrapped my left arm in divinity and caught the flying spear. The spot where I caught it seemed to break, but it was absorbed into my body.
-Kwaaang!
The remaining half that had not been absorbed was stuck on the floor. The time axis shook again. The entire ground on which I was standing was shaking.
I kicked the ground and ran. I saw Aria, smiling brightly while wearing a blood-stained nun’s habit. Her eyes blinked and changed color. From blue to gray.
The confusion had almost completely disappeared from the gray eyes turned towards me.
‘Just a little more.’
If Latina is not simply acting as a vessel, but is also mingled with Aria’s soul, there is no way she would not notice what is happening now.
Every time I try to take control of my body, I stop attacking myself, and then I lose control again and lose consciousness. This happens over and over again.
But even if I realized that fact, there was nothing I could do.
At least for now, that is.
He twisted his trajectory as he was about to cut off Aria’s neck. The dragon sword narrowly passed by a strand of gray hair. The slash embedded in the blade cut the innocent ground in two instead of Aria’s neck.
The earth collapsed in a chain reaction, and a single blow dug a ravine that seemed to be at least a dozen meters long. I was about to prepare for the next spell, but I hesitated for a moment when I saw that the eyes were still gray.
Meanwhile, magic circles were drawn on both of Aria’s hands. A moment later, her pupils turned blue again. A storm of flames combined with ice swept through as divine light flashed.
The body that was hit by the wind was lifted into the air. While the body was burning in the flames, ice shards the size of fingernails pierced through the entire body.
Immediately, a golden meteor struck down. I moved my tattered arm to cut the golden light forming the meteor in two, and it disappeared into thin air.
Still, the storm did not stop. My body was blown back for a long time before I could finally touch the ground. I used healing magic on my tattered body.
The place where the ice shard had passed through was filled with new flesh, and the skin that had been torn off to reveal the internal organs was restored to its original state. The muscles that had been radiating heat from the overcooked flesh were also completely restored.
“I was a little surprised. I didn’t think you’d really attack me.”
A blue-eyed Latina walked in from afar. Her blood-stained habit sloshed with her steps. It was a sign that she had been healed after being attacked by me.
“If my reaction had been even just a little bit late, I almost died.”
“Yeah. That could have been the end of it.”
“It’s unfortunate. I apologize.”
In other words, Aria walked in.
“You’re not going to keep taking it like this, are you? How long do you think you can run away?”
“It doesn’t depend on when I finish, but when you can catch up. If things continue like this, we’ll fight for a whole year without ever reaching a conclusion.”
“Hmm, is that so? Then, since one year is too boring, I guess I’ll have to make Mira-san approach first. What will you do if I shoot the divinity at this world? Will you be able to stop them all?”
“No. I can’t do that.”
Aria looked at me with an incredulous expression, as if she thought I was joking.
Just a little more.
“I always trust you, Mira, but I don’t think I can trust you this time. I’m sorry. What makes you so sure?”
“You, of all people. What did you think I believed in that made me suffer like this?”
Aria’s face hardened slightly. It seemed as if she realized that there was something trusting in my attitude. Her hand tried to cast a spell in a hurry, but stopped before she could even draw the magic circle.
“Cough?!”
Aria knelt down with a distorted expression. Her hand grabbed her chest. Her body began to tremble.
His once blue eyes turned gray.
“Savior, sir… … Cough!”
Latina’s body screamed again. Her eyes, which had been gray, turned blue again. Aria, who had been staggering, raised her head with difficulty.
“how…….”
“Didn’t I tell you earlier what kind of personality Latina has?”
She is a woman of strong determination. She is quick-witted enough. She must have known what she had to do just by the brief moment she appeared. The current situation, where she is fighting for dominance with Aria, is proof of that.
It must have been a big deal that Aria kept changing her personality to adapt whenever she was attacked. It was all her own doing.
“Ugh, ugh… … !”
The body twisted back and forth. The pupils kept changing between gray and blue. It seemed to be in great pain because it was being changed against its will.
Latina also seemed to be in a lot of pain, but at least she was holding up much better than Aria. There was noticeably less screaming when her eyes turned gray.
-!!!!!!
Divinity burst out from Aria’s body. She stabbed the light spear into the ground and fixed the nearby space-time. With a strange sound of “Kkudduk”, time, which was about to distort, became quiet.
“Do you think I… … will give up here… …?!”
The evil-possessed voice was spat out as if chewing, and the period of time when the pupils remained blue gradually increased. Latina was being pushed. At the same time, the divine power bursting out became much stronger.
He pulled out the Yong-A sword, not the Yong-A sword. A blue, translucent blade emerged.
In the past, I couldn’t save him. I had to run away as if I was being pushed while handing over the Gwangchang that hadn’t even awakened yet.
Not this time.
