Academy Munchkin Enslaved

39 – Hello? I’m Miya’s mom.

‘This is… It’s dangerous.’

A demon called a harpy. The existence of demons was something Heimd had never encountered before.

Yes, they are the ones who only appear in old history.

The servants of the demon king, who is said to bring about the destruction of the continent. Their existence meant that the history of the continent had reached a critical point.

“Kyahahahahaha- this much will be okay, right? No, won’t it be okay?”

The level of frivolous laughter and behavior was infinitely low, but their low fighting power could not be ignored.

Even though he used sword skills in a wide range, Heim was a knight who reached the highest level of Aura, the Aura Road.

Easy to block such an attack meant that it would be difficult to deal with these ten harpies alone without any damage.

‘I don’t know about the others, but among them, the demons are having a hard time.’

I didn’t know if the remaining nine harpies could be handled by Heimd alone.

Of course, it was clear that even that would entail a lot of damage.

But nonetheless, the harpy in the middle has bigger, more unusual wings.

That being that seemed to be their leader was of a different rank.

If you deal with it in the best condition, somehow you might be able to win with luck, but it was difficult in a situation where you were fighting with 9 enemies like this.

But I had to do it.

I didn’t know what the reason was, but the demons were targeting the girl’s friends.

Besides, one of them has already been captured.

If he lost even the other one, Heimd would never have the face to see the lady’s face again.

‘The family lord emptied the dukedom. But when reinforcements arrive soon, I can focus on dealing with that boss.’

Before Heim felt unusual energy and left the family, Heimd told his remaining knights to follow him with all his forces if a certain amount of time had elapsed.

Of course, not all of the rest of the knights and wizards reached the level of Duke and Heimd.

Rather, most of the high-ranking wizards of the family were away with the duke, leaving only the knights to protect the dukedom.

Still, among them, there were articles with some credible corners.

Knights who have reached the pinnacle of Auror Master, the level right below Auror Road.

If they worked together, they might be able to deal with a few harpies.

‘First, process them one by one.’

In the meantime, I had to reduce the number of enemies even by one.

I don’t know why, but the opponents aren’t fully demonstrating their power.

I calculated that if I was looking for a chance, I would be able to bring one or two harpies’ necks.

Swiik-

“… !”

“Kyahahahaha- I don’t know, guys~”

However, the feathers aimed at him in an instant, as if they had read his thoughts.

Feathers wrapped in ominous energy like steel aimed at Heimd in unison.

One layer, two layers, three layers…

The vast amount of feathers piled up to the point of completely obscuring vision began to rush towards Heimd in an instant.

‘This is… Dangerous!’

Heimd quickly wrapped the aura all over his body like his armor.

His will, Aura, that protects him as hard as steel.

However, the rain of feathers did not seem to stop, and the number continued to increase. To the extent that I still can’t see ahead.

“Sylvoria’s Shield!”

But in an instant, along with Ian’s cry, a solid wall of ice covered his surroundings, and feathers fluttered everywhere with a sound like grinding steel.

It was Ian who protected him.

‘I heard that he reached the 5th tier at such a young age, he is a great kid.’

Heimd was genuinely surprised by Ian’s ability even in the midst of an urgent situation.

The fact that he was able to cast such strong defensive magic so quickly, even as a knight, could clearly see his magical skills.

Moreover, while maintaining defense magic, he was casting various buff magic.

It was certain that it was an unusual arithmetic skill.

Casting multiple magics at once like this quickly was a skill that could only be demonstrated at the level of a master.

“Thank you.”

Thanks to this, I was able to save energy and buy time.

While Heimd was gathering strength inside, the sound of feathers colliding with the barrier stopped for an instant, and at the same time, the barrier was lifted.

“Pu-huh… “

He let out a big breath that made the air shudder.

And at the same time, his lower body swelled greatly.

As if he had moved in space for an instant, he jumped up at high speed and cut the harpy at the end of the ranks.

Chack-

The harpy reacted instantaneously and spread its wings like a shield, but to no avail.

Even the wings that were wrapped around Magi and made hard were useless in the face of his sword, an Auror Lord.

“hehehe! Uncle, you are so fast!”

However, the leader of the harpies only maintained an unreasonable tension even after seeing his subordinates recoil.

This means that you are completely ignoring the hind. It meant that no matter what he did, he was sure he wouldn’t endanger himself.

And since that was also true, Heimd swung his sword once more in anger.

‘You have to protect it. Even for the homeowner. Even for the young lady.’

Until the death of the Duchess, it was still a fairly harmonious family.

However, after the death of the duchess, the duke’s daughter gradually began to face the tragedy.

Although the Duke was a blunt man, he loved his wife and Lorraine very much.

And that’s why, after her death, he didn’t take another wife.

Having a new duchess was necessary both for the succession of the family and for political purposes,

Because the Duke thought it was not for the sake of his wife who had already left and her daughter who was left alone.

However, the life of the Dearheart family had to continue.

That’s why the patriarch taught Lorraine even more harshly.

Even if there is no other heir to her, so that she can properly take the place of the head of the Dear Heart family.

So that she may follow in her own footsteps as her greatest wizard, and carry on the glory of her family.

However, such greed gradually tired Lorraine, and the relationship between the duke and Lorraine grew more and more distant.

Unexpectedly, the duke pushed forward an engagement that her daughter did not want, and Lorraine was seriously hurt and almost closed the door to her heart.

From the Duke’s point of view, she thought that if she was paired with a child of her age who excelled in magic, she would develop into a more competitive spirit, but naturally, her little girl’s heart did not.

‘We must protect it.’

Heimd. In order to explain why he is under someone even though he is a strong man who has reached the extreme of the Auror Lord, he must go back to the past to meet him and the duke.

But what is certain is that Heim is the Duke of Dearheart, whom he swore allegiance to. And Lorraine, who is like her own niece.

I had already promised long ago that I would protect the happiness of this family.

That’s why I couldn’t give up here.

I couldn’t let her lose her precious friend and see her world crumble once again.

When the family head came back, the city and the family could not be seen destroyed.

‘If it wasn’t for that guy, it would be just a strong monster.’

A fight that would have ended a long time ago had it not been for the boss who kept laughing badly.

And if the Duke of Dearheart was in the duke’s mansion, he would have been able to deal with that chief harpy as well.

Because he already knew that there would be nothing to change by complaining about the given situation, leaving behind such regrets.

Once again, lightly boil the aura and decapitate another harpy.

“Lord of Sky.”

And then, in an instant, the world went from dark to bright, and one more harpy collapsed.

A huge flow of mana connecting heaven and earth.

It was a 5th tier magic that Heimd had already experienced.

“Heo Eok… Heo-eok… “

He was a friend of a lady named Ian.

A young man, but capable of handling 5th tier magic.

Nevertheless, he was gasping for breath even with one 5th tier magic, as if he wasn’t used to it yet.

However, that attack was helpful enough to Heimd.

“I see. Thank you.”

Now there are six harpies in total. Excluding the head, there were five.

Then I hear the sound of my men running from far away.

That means that soon an environment will be created where you can focus on dealing with one boss.

I wasn’t sure if I could kill that nasty harpy with my remaining power, but it was clear that it was a much more hopeful situation than at first.

“Ah- this is difficult. If you use more force, it really won’t work.”

From noble mtl dot com

And maybe he noticed that reinforcements were coming, and the enemy leader also hardened his expression a bit.

“I can’t help it. See you later. Mister. You should be stronger then?”

However, the meaning of that expression was not so threatening to her.

It was just regret for not being able to enjoy the outing after a long time.

“What… !”

And the new type of harpies that disappeared in an instant, and the cool sensation aiming for the throat.

The claws of the five harpies took turns aiming at Heimd’s neck.

It was a speed that was too fast to follow with the eyes, but Heim cut off all of his claws with superhuman reaction speed.

Kigigigiggeek-!

“Then, hello~”

“At some point… ! Big… !”

In the blink of an eye, between the workshops.

Ian was already passed out and caught in the claws of the leader of the harpies, and they disappeared in an instant.

Heimd hastily jumped up and swung his sword at them, but the harpies had already disappeared in space.

Teleportation? Fascination? It didn’t matter how they disappeared.

But the important thing is that he couldn’t protect the Princess of Lorraine’s precious thing.

On rare occasions, she said she would bring her friend into her family. She

She came back with a much brighter face than before she went to the academy.

She was criticized by the family head for not improving her magic skills, but she was able to keep her smile thanks to her friend.

The fact that he couldn’t protect Lorraine’s most precious being, Heimd couldn’t possibly go back to the duke’s house.

She looked up in front of her and she wasn’t confident.

All he could do was take his anger out on a sword that couldn’t cut properly even though he had reached the highest level.

***

“Keuk… “

An unpleasant black aura that completely dominates the brain.

Even though her mind is slowly returning, she circulates mana to drive away the ominous energy that is stuck in her head like a dark cloud.

“This is… “

I must have lost my mind while fighting with the leader of the Dearheart family.

As I can guess from the memory of a harpy with big wings rushing at me at the last moment, it seems that I was eventually attacked and kidnapped by them.

At that moment, I was really nothing, just a pitiful academy cadet.

I was conceited that I was able to use 5th tier magic in a relatively short amount of time, but in the battle between Heimd and Harpy, I was just a helpless child.

I was able to overcome my helplessness and managed to catch a harpy with 5th tier magic, but that’s all.

I couldn’t react to the movement of the harpy flying toward me, and in the end, I was just a burden to Heimd.

No, not only that, but I was just a kid who got drunk on calculus and didn’t have any real skills yet.

With this battle, I felt it keenly.

“Are you awake?”

“Who is that?”

The five senses that completely drained the ominous energy out of the body and slowly began to return.

The first thing I felt was the captivating scent and the soothing voice that gave me goosebumps all over my body.

It was a feeling that made him feel uncomfortable, but soon that discomfort was dispelled by the mysterious stimulation that covered him.

“Hello?”

And when I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a beautiful woman sitting on a black throne and looking down at me.

The energy he felt was absolutely not human, but the same energy as that of the previous harpies, but he was completely human on the outside.

“Who, who are you… “

“Whoops… me?”

I stood up, clutching my throbbing hair.

She crossed her arms to support her full breasts, as if she was interested in what I was about to do.

It must be a demon. It was a strangely familiar atmosphere.

Obviously familiar, but strangely, a thicker feeling. This,

“I’m Miya, Mom. Please take good care of me.”

“… Yes?”

It was Miya’s mother.

… ?
