Surviving as a Villain at the Academy

48 – Demonic Water Flood. (9)

Ruslan looked outside the system with a nervous expression. The sight of demonic beasts swarming around was unusual.

The students at the academy were also very talented, so the emperor did not hesitate to send them in. The purpose of the academy is to nurture talented individuals who dedicate themselves to the country, so take actions consistent with that purpose.

There was no student or nobleman who could refute the emperor’s words that he had spared no effort in supporting him.

The Emperor and Lancel, the family of Prah, actually poured enormous support into the Academy, and it was true that many people achieved honor and glory thanks to that.

Since the students were the ones who personally enjoyed the benefits, they could not avoid the dangers of the system.

In the end, they had to go to the battlefield, and the result was the scene before their eyes.

Minimum safety measures were provided by attaching famous knights to the students, and small squads were formed centered around the knights, so there was no immediate threat.

-Keeek!

-Krrr… ….

But…… Seeing the demonic beasts running rampant like that made me wonder whether the knights assigned to the squad would be able to protect them.

There was a demonic incident last time, and the devil was also overcome, so Ruslan had a certain level of confidence. Still, seeing such a group of magical beasts, I couldn’t help but feel disgusted.

Aris, Johan, and Diana, who were next to Ruslan, also looked outside the castle walls with nervous expressions.

“What is all that…… ?”

“What on earth is going on?”

Diana was shocked, and John looked at the demon beast with a distant gaze and sighed. And Aris…… I was looking to the side, not out there.

Ruslan knew very well where those gazes were directed.

It must be Prah. There was no way he didn’t know that. She knew that Aris no longer showed any feelings towards her after the last demon incident.

Ruslan seemed to sigh, but he was so disgusted with himself that he couldn’t say anything.

It’s not like Ruslan doesn’t know why Aris is doing that. If the friend he had been with for ten years was no longer his friend, where would his dependence and importance go?

It would not be particularly strange for new strange emotions to arise. Ruslan had already given up on Aris the night he was attacked by the devil. Because in her heart she had already realized that there was no room for her to squeeze in.

Ruslan was a person who could easily give up what he had to give up. She didn’t want to make her suffer by obsessing over her. Because she’s already suffering enough.

Although she felt a subtle crush on Aris, it was also her Prah’s presence that prevented her from being completely sold on her. Because Prah had memories of a long time shared with Aris that Ruslan did not have.

It was only manifested in a bad form, but even a fool could tell that they had a terrible attachment to each other.

Of course, after that incident, Prah’s attitude changed strangely, and Ruslan also harbored hostility towards him. It is true that he spent a long time with her Aris, but even so, trying to rape her was an unforgivable action.

He didn’t even apologize to Aris, so Ruslan had ample reason to dislike him. She also knows that Aris likes Prah…… To be honest, I hated him.

Leave other good guys behind, why choose Prah? Are past memories so precious?

He sighed. No. Now is not the time to worry about this. Now is the time to get rid of the demonic beasts in front of him. Whatever you do, it’s Aris’s heart…… He had no reason or right to interfere.

This was also the distortion of the original that Prach was most concerned about, but he had no way of knowing about it. Unfortunately.

The demonic beasts are coming. Me, Asti, Lina, and Nea just looked at it with sad expressions. So much so that the driver next to me was a little embarrassed.

“Aren’t you nervous?”

“What’s there to be nervous about?”

I answered honestly. There is no need to be nervous.

In the first place, Asti alone could have wiped out this swarm of demonic beasts. Because of her unavoidable circumstances, she did not come forward, and there was no threat to my personal safety.

Also, Nea is a mid-level demon.

He looked at us a little curiously. I could understand his reaction. If you look around right away, the expressions of the students huddled together and looking outside the castle walls are all set.

No one has as much leisure as us…… I couldn’t help but feel that the article was foreign.

Initially, I was planning to separate this driver from the escort driver who was watching me from somewhere. Because if these two are there, we can’t move as planned.

Then when on earth do you separate the two? … Well, it won’t be difficult. The demonic beasts will probably start flocking in without us even having time to worry about them.

There really isn’t much left now. The castle wall will probably be breached. The demonic beasts will continue to push in, so there will be a limit to how much we can stop them.

“…… Come.”

As soon as the knight muttered, the demonic beasts immediately began crashing against the castle wall. It felt like he was neglecting his own survival in his desire for life.

They attacked the castle walls like crazy, like hungry monkfish that had been starving for several months. So much so that the gates of the system are suddenly jeopardized.

Of course, the Capital Defense Force was not the one to just sit by and watch.

“Unleash the magic! “Not a single person should be allowed into the system!”

At the shout of the person who appeared to be the commander, all kinds of magic instantly appeared on the castle walls. There were students among them, so it seemed like they had gathered all kinds of people.

It wasn’t just the wizards’ magic. The priests’ sacred magic also embroidered the sky. Since they are priests who can be seen as natural enemies of demonic beasts, their addition was of great help.

Then, magic pours in. A fireball burns the ground, and a spear of ice pierces the ground. The earth turns over, pulling the demonic beast standing on it into the ground, and divine power pours down on it like rain.

Quaaang!

All kinds of noise assaults my ears. But I wasn’t surprised by the noise. Because I saw Sloth’s magic rampage a few days ago.

I was watching magic at a level where heaven and earth were created, and then I saw this scene…… Clearly, the human level was still too low. Since the enemies that would appear in the future could not be defeated with this level of magic, it was necessary to find sufficiently strong humans.

“Shall I raise one hand too?”

“No. You better move later. “If you step forward now, things will be so easy.”

I shook my head at Asti’s words. Now is not the time for Asti to be active. When she’s active, she’s a little later. Now she had to break through the castle gate.

My goal is to open the gate and minimize casualties…… There was no need for Asti to step forward now.

“Hey, senior.”

“Why?”

“These demonic beasts…… You can catch it, right? “This is the first time I’ve seen them crowded together like a pack of dogs.”

“There are a lot of them, but there aren’t many that strong. Even with the current magic bombardment, most of them fail. There’s no need to worry about those tens of thousands of people…… Instead, a small number of strong demons could be the problem. For example, that guy over there.”

I pointed with my finger at the huge demonic beast standing tall outside the castle walls.

The guy who looked strong at first glance didn’t have that many wounds even after being showered with so many magic spells. He’s a guy with a lot of tenacity, but maybe it’s not just his tenacity that makes him strong.

“If you’re going to break down the castle gate, those guys will be a problem. Right, sir?”

The knight nodded his head.

“That’s right. However, you also need to keep a close eye on the demonic beasts climbing the castle walls. When you see these guys coming in like this…… “We will be able to climb on each other’s bodies and get over the castle wall.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the demonic beasts gradually began to climb up the castle wall. It’s possible to defeat the flying monsters with magic, but it’s impossible to pour a large amount of magic even at those who climb up the castle wall. In the end, this means that we have to deal with the guys on the wall.

I drew my sword. I felt like I needed to use my strength for a bit now. In the end, the purpose of this battle was to protect the castle gate.

“Asti. “Please assist me.”

There was also a way for Asty to intercept the demonic beasts with a single magic…… Since I ate the heart of a dragon, I wanted to test my skills.

So I asked Asti for assistance, and Asti nodded that he understood.

“Leave it to me. “I’ll help you avoid getting hurt at all.”

“Please take care of Rina rather than me. Fortunately, Lina is the weakest among our group.”

“Well, I’m not that weak either… ….”

“I said it was okay. And the driver. “You don’t need to worry about me.”

Before the knight could say anything, I cut off the head of a demonic beast that had climbed up on the castle wall. The movements were definitely light. As my body became stronger thanks to Asti and the power of the subdragon resided in it, I felt that I had become incomparably stronger than I was at the beginning of my possession.

“Uh, ah, I understand.”

The knight suddenly saw me cleanly cutting off the head of one of the demon beasts, and nodded, looking embarrassed. Even to the driver, it seemed like there was no need to protect me.

It’s a squad, but we just organized a squad to have the knights take care of the students. Wouldn’t it be easier for the driver to have students who don’t need to be looked after?

I brushed the blood off my sword and set out to find my next prey.
