The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

Ed Subjugation (8)

Ed Rosstaylor.

〈 Sylvania’s Failed Sword Saint 〉 Mid-boss in Act 1.

A piece of trash who spews out lines like a third-rate villain and craves Tailley McLaure, but then shows his dirty side and falls miserably.

It’s like they were added in hastily to set the tempo at the beginning of the story, which tends to be drawn out… Such a wasteful character.

From the mid-bosses with all kinds of backgrounds that appear later, to the final bosses of each act who take on the role of the underworld for different reasons.

All kinds of enemies stand in the way of main character Tailley McLaure, but Ed Rothtaylor is the most insignificant and shallow character.

From Yenica Palover Glast to Lucy Mayril Crepin Rosstaylor Sung Chang-ryong Bellbroke.

Whether it was the weight of expectations weighing down on your shoulders, whether you were twisted by the pain of loss, whether you still had a promise to someone who left, or whether you had to commit pure evil in order to survive.

The dark actors who decorate the finale of each act stand on the stage with their own reasons.

So, what could have been allowed to Ed Ross Taylor, who should have disappeared quietly without any narrative?

They say that there is value in a life other than that of the main character, but the weight will definitely be different.

Even if the story is twisted and he reaches the final dark place… what can he talk about and what circumstances can he spit out?

For a person who left his family and wanted to end his life in pessimism… how much is left to say?

Therefore, “The Failed Swordsman of Sylvania” did not allocate any stage to him.

I quietly come down to the back of the stage and just look at the setting sun and reflect on life.

How great of a story would come out if the stage lights shined on someone who was ruminating on an unhappy life in a place where the spotlight could not reach.

This is the story of everyone who lives their lives in places where light cannot reach.

Even if the flow is somehow twisted and you end up on stage as the final boss of an act, nothing will change.

From being a third-rate villain who makes an unsightly exit at the beginning of the stage, to becoming the final black actor responsible for the end of an act.

Even though many things have changed, in the end, there is only one purpose for which he moves now.

Let’s survive.

We must survive.

– Knock knock.

As if answering that thought, one or two raindrops fell. I thought it might rain, but it was earlier than expected.

One or two drops fell on the bonfire in front of Ed Rosstaylor, causing a small cloud of thick smoke to rise.

Aisla Tris raises her voice to him across the slowly fading bonfire.

You didn’t say you were going to do this.

As if it was no big deal, as if we were just going to spar once.

Ayla raised her voice and spoke to Ed Rosstaylor, who had tempted Ayla like that.

I have to go back to Tailley.

Ayla says so.

Ed Rothtaylor doesn’t answer, resting his forearms on his knees.

Ayla looks back. If I run right away, what time will it be when I arrive at the Elte Commercial Building?

I suddenly remember Tailly struggling. Is Tailly really trying to break through all those walls? If that’s the case, it seems like he’ll be okay with that.

When I turn my head again, I see the dark side of all this – Ed Rosstaylor quietly looking at Ayla amidst the intermittent raindrops.

He is a much more rational person than Ayla thought.

He is a person who has a rational reason for whatever he does. That’s why I couldn’t understand the current situation.

─The rain is getting heavier. The same goes for the Elte Commercial Building.

Elte Commercial Building, 3rd floor. Tailly, facing Yenica Palover, quickly takes out his sword.

Intuition whispers to him.

You can never win. This is an opponent you can never beat, even if the odds are one in a thousand or one in ten thousand.

High-ranking spirits can be handled freely, and if the middle-ranking spirits and lower-ranking spirits are combined, the army is in the three digits.

If we can attack the main body, there may be a chance of victory, but there is no way we will just leave it alone until the spirits touch their master.

In addition, they are equipped with a lot of self-defense devices to protect themselves.

If you rush at a perceptible speed, the magic phase shifter will activate if the shock-enhanced wave sphere attempts to utilize magic.

Even if you attack against all odds… the small hourglass hanging on Yenica Palover’s waist will render even that blow null and void.

Legendary magic engineering supplies – Delheim Hourglass.

A legendary magic engineering tool that can only be created by spending a lot of time on magic engineering.

Even Ed Ross-Taylor, who has a wide range of personal relationships, only hands out treasures to trusted allies.

Ed Rothtaylor, who will be standing at the end of the stage, is one of the people I trust the most.

As proof of that fact, the various support items wrapped around the girl’s body… each and every one of them boasts high performance.

The weakening spirit whispers in Tailley’s ear.

Put down your sword.

Run away without hesitation.

No one in the world blames you. Even if you ran away from this, no one will call you a coward.

I did enough. Blood is flowing through my body and my legs are about to lose strength.

You can collapse here. It was a lot of hard work.

But Tailley McLaure shakes her head. I dispersed the distracting thoughts rising above my head and opened my eyes, which were losing their sense of reason, straight again.

─The rain becoming stronger hits the outer wall of the upper chamber and slides towards the floor.

Clevious was lying in the front yard of the commercial building.

Elvira dragged him, who was completely exhausted, and somehow carried him under the small roof attached to the outer wall of the store.

He sat down on the floor and hugged Clevious’s head… looking up at the rain falling calmly.

─On the first floor of the store, Ziggs pushes away the debris and stands up, shaking off the dust.

There were no serious injuries. In the first place, Tailly had no intention of hurting Ziggs. I just wanted to get them out of the way.

I never would have thought that an entire floor of this size could be destroyed with a single sword strike.

Ziggs suddenly sees rain hitting the windows in the first floor hallway.

I take a deep breath, sit down on the debris, and take a rest, hoping that no one is seriously injured.

After sitting like that for a while, he purses his lips as if he has decided on something.

Lortel, running through the midnight forest, also feels a raindrop fall on the tip of his nose.

After looking up at the sky for a moment, I take a deep breath and put on my robe. As we move towards the less crowded Gyosu building… we sink deeper into the darkness of the night.

Lortel prays.

I hope everything ends well. I hope that I can get my real power back at the Chamber of Commerce and be able to warm up by the bonfire while exchanging silly jokes with Ed.

Lucy and Princess Fenia also feel the rain in front of Dune, who continues to talk while sweating profusely.

The guards rush out making a fuss and cover Fenia and Lucy’s heads with a cloth.

The sound of falling rain penetrates Fenia and Lucy’s ears.

Dune took a moment to gather her thoughts, but the fact that she was in a difficult situation did not change.

In front of Dune, who continues speaking slowly, Lucy shakes off her skirt and glares at him.

The same goes for Tracyana Bloomriver, who was sitting alone on the 4th floor of Elte Trading Company, trimming her cane.

As raindrops pour down through the gaping hole in the ceiling, the girl shakes off her hair and enters deep into the hallway.

After snorting once, he sat down nearby with his chin resting and quietly looked at the rain.

The fate of many things depends on this one night. The last dawn before school starts. People who look up at the raindrops with their own circumstances wait for the morning sun with their own feelings.

The same goes for Taily and Ayla.

– Kaaaang!

Sword clashes with teeth.

The teeth of the snake spirit that broke its body dug into Tailly’s right forearm. Tailly screamed and tried to pull the snake out with her hands, but it only tore the wound further.

Immediately afterwards, spirits in the form of lions and tigers rush in. I caught the tooth with my sword, but my legs lost strength and my body fell.

– Wow! Kang!

It’s an attack that she would have normally been able to withstand, but Tailley is already completely devastated.

As it is hung on the outer wall of the hallway, the window breaks and pieces of glass fall on Taily’s body.

Tailly screams, and rain pours in through the broken window and hits Taily’s body. Rainwater seeping into the wound causes even stronger pain.

Just give up now.

No one is forcing you to hold out any longer.

I hear that voice again.

However, Tailly grits her teeth and gets up again.

The open gate. Beyond that is the VIP waiting room.

Yenica Palover, standing quietly in front of the sofa, does not have a very good expression.

I don’t even want to beat Taily any further, who is running at me in such a state of disrepair.

But that doesn’t mean she won’t keep her promise to Ed Ross-Taylor.

The face looks as if it just wants Tailly to give up. Continuing to attack a battered opponent is not what she wants.

Yenica, Ziggs, and even Ayla all hope that he will get enough and fall down now.

Nevertheless, Tailly… stands up with a body covered in glass shards and water. The prosecutor’s uniform is stuck to his rain-soaked body, and his white hair is stuck to his face, making him look shabby.

Burning willpower. However, the sight of him barely holding on with his water-soaked face is extremely unsightly.

“You don’t even know how hard Taily’s life has been!”

A bonfire that has gone out.

Ayla shouts to Ed in the rain.

“That’s enough!”

“…”

“Even if you didn’t have to go through this many hardships… Tailly got through it just fine!”

The walls prepared by Ed Ross Taylor… no matter how strong-willed Taylor may be, they cannot be broken through.

She thought that he would simply provoke Tailley and spar with her a few times, but contrary to Ayla’s expectations, Ed was completely trampling Tailley.

Even if it was that severe, it was too severe.

I owe Ed quite a bit, and there are quite a few things I feel sorry for. This is why Ayla joined Tailley’s proposal.

But Ayla didn’t want to get involved with Ed any further than this.

“Do you think you’re doing the right thing, Senior Ed?! Even if you say you’re doing this to make Taily stronger, is that for her own good?!”

Ayla is talking almost screaming in the rain.

The darkness that decorates the final battle of the chapter. Ed Rothtaylor, a fallen nobleman.

Even if Tailly reaches him, overcomes him, and reaches the end of the ordeal… and becomes stronger, does that mean it’s for Taily’s sake?

“Don’t force your self-righteousness on Taily.”

The rain continues to hit the ground.

The sound of pouring rain blocks out half of the sounds of the world.

Nevertheless, Ayla’s voice clearly reaches Ed.

Ed, soaked in the rain… bowed his head and did not respond to Ayla’s pitiful cries.

“Tailly… Taily…! That’s enough. This is enough… I’ve done enough…”

“Ayla Tris.”

Ed Rosstaylor quietly stands up and looks at Ayla.

Ayla took her breath away when she saw Ed’s more serious expression than she expected.

Ed Rosstaylor was a man who always acted calmly and rationally. When Ayla saw emotion in his eyes for the first time, she was so embarrassed that she even forgot to breathe.

When it comes to , he is the first person that comes to mind.

Ayla Trees, the companion who always encouraged and affirmed the main character, Tailly, by his side.

I lived a reality like hell. Whether it’s under fire on a battlefield or the sight of a city drunk at peace. Nothing has ever been painless.

That may be why I found comfort in seeing Tailly. While playing Sylvania’s failed swordsman several times, I received a lot of encouragement from seeing him overcome difficult trials and harsh fates.

Even though it was a meaningless past now, it remained clearly in my memory.

Ed Rosstaylor came up in the rain and grabbed Ayla by the collar.

“Even if everyone else is like that, what if you don’t trust him?”

“…Ugh…what…?”

“She grits her teeth and holds on, but if you urge her to give up… what are you asking her to do… not anyone else, but you, Ayla…”

Ed gritted his teeth and spoke to Ayla.

This is my first time seeing Ed Rothtaylor so close and with such raw emotion.

It’s not anger, it’s not disappointment… it’s something in between.

He is completely different from the strangely mysterious Ed Ross-Taylor, who was always quietly faithful to his duties on The Bachelor.

“There’s no reason to do this…!”

“If we don’t do this, we will all die.”

“I beg your pardon…?”

“I didn’t think you would believe me in the first place… but now it’s none of my business whether you believe it or not. However, if you insist so much, there’s nothing I can’t tell you why.”

Ed Rosstaylor speaks while holding Ayla by the collar.

“Whether you treat me like a crazy person or a coward who makes ridiculous excuses… it’s up to you…”

Seongchangryong Bellbroke.

As soon as that name came out of Ed’s mouth, Ayla’s pupils twitched greatly.

The final bosses who close the stage always have a burden on their shoulders.

However, the set stage has already gone awry.

Act 4 has ended, but I don’t even know if I’ve properly entered Act 5. Nowadays, everything is a labyrinth.

The final battle of each act has already been delayed for several months, so it has been a while since the love affair has lost its meaning.

Right now, we don’t know when Belbroke will be resurrected or when the story will end.

It became impossible to know whether Act 4 would be followed by Act 5 or whether it would be the end of the story.

Even my goal of living leisurely with the goal of getting a diploma has long since become meaningless. The world is already not leaving Ed Rothtaylor alone.

Ed Rosstaylor, clutching his collar with the weight of the rain pressing down on his shoulders, speaks while soaked in the rain.

His appearance reflected in Ayla’s pupils… is infinitely serious.

If you have entered Act 5 properly, the final boss who will end the story has also been decided.

Ed Ross Taylor, Fallen Aristocrat.

This is the name of the person who must close this stage that is spreading without direction.

*Yenica Failover does not even move.

Even the way he looks at Tailly is so cold that it cannot be compared to her usual appearance.

– Kaang! Whoa!

Tailly, who was digging into the side, fell with one swipe of Tarkan’s tail. Tailly, who slipped and fell once along the wall of the VIP waiting room, gets up from the dust.

There is barely any consciousness left. It almost seems like it moves based on instinct. It would not be strange if the pupils immediately rolled upward and lost consciousness.

Yenika swallowed dry saliva.

It seems like a fight with Ottogi, which gets up again even after being beaten again and again. If I do this, I might lose consciousness, but I never give up.

Rather, Tailley’s attack patterns were becoming more and more diverse. While we are holding on tightly to keep our reason from slipping away, we are seeking a methodology to thoroughly win.

This is an opponent that can never be defeated by simple force.

However, there is always a way to beat the spiritists. It is to subdue not the spirit, but the spirit master itself.

Yenika quietly raises her staff. Various magical engineering supplies were hanging on the pitch-black wood, and various spirit rituals were also engraved on it.

‘Thousand-year wooden staff struck by lightning’. Yenika’s sensitivity, which had already reached its limit, soars even further.

Tailly gritted his teeth and kicked the floor and leaped. Tailly, who flew towards the ceiling, turns around and steps on the ceiling as if it were the floor.

What you are looking at is the main body of the Yenica Failrover.

Sword Seongsik – Elemental Slash.

Taily’s sword strike, which cuts even the elemental spirits in two, eliminates all lower level spirits around them.

It disappears after being transformed into a body by the spirits that have been reverse-summoned.

Tailly flew straight through the ceiling and headed toward Yenica’s body.

There was no way the spirits would just leave Tailley’s movements like that. Tarkan tried to stop Taily’s movement by swinging his tail, but Tailly’s elemental slash cut Tarkan’s tail into pieces.

It is a technique that has an advantage over elemental spirits. According to events, even in the first act, Tarkan was unable to withstand Tailley’s elemental slash.

However, no matter how much superiority there is, it cannot overcome the absolute difference in force.

As Tarkan roars and emits magical power, the impact alone causes Tailly’s body to lose direction.

He rolls around on the floor and aims his body, but is hit directly by the elemental magic of the mid-level spirits.

Since I am already in dire straits, my consciousness comes and goes from even the slightest shock. The bloody body screamed, but Tailly aimed again and glared at Yenika.

Eventually, the next Sword Seongsik appears.

Space cutting.

One by one, he performs the Sword Saint Ceremony over and over again, which causes a load on his body, and cuts down the spirits.

Nevertheless, Yenica Failover does not move even a single step. He succeeded in getting right in front of her, but soon the ‘shock-enhanced wave sphere’ unleashed its power and pushed Tailly away.

“Kaaaaak!”

It feels like my body is being torn apart by even a small impact.

Nevertheless, Tailley regained her senses and stood up. I gritted my teeth and glared at Yenika.

“Why… Why…”

Even as blood was pouring out, Tailly spoke through gritted teeth.

“There’s no reason to get involved with that man like this… Why are you stopping me…”

Yenika also momentarily narrowed her eyes at the sight of Tailly bleeding.

She is a girl whose heart is not that strong to begin with. No matter how much of an enemy they face, seeing them grit their teeth and endure like that makes me feel weak.

Still, I can’t break Yenica Failover’s heart.

Standing behind this is Ed Rosstaylor. Yenica Failover has no intention of sending Taily to Ed.

“It’s not that complicated.”

Yenika, standing upright in the dark, has not a single scratch on her body. He is someone who cannot inflict even a small wound with Taily’s power.

“If Edgar… had chosen to be a villain…”

Yenica spoke clearly without a change in her expression.

“Then I’m a villain too. That’s it.”

No matter what, Yenica Failover is on Ed Rothtaylor’s side. That fact will never change even if the world turns upside down.

“If you meet Ed like this, you will risk your life.”

Ed Rosstaylor is currently unable to fully use his magical powers. The ring’s recoil remains.

No matter how devastated Taily is, you never know what will happen.

“…That would be natural.”

“Then I have no intention of sending you to Ed either.”

There is no hesitation in Yenika’s firm tone.

“Give up. You know it yourself. Your journey ends here.”

Elte Trading Company with drizzle of rain. Now the building has become a mess, unable to function properly.

Taylor McLaure can never penetrate this third layer.

That heavy reality weighs on Tailly’s shoulders.

– It’s a hit!

The hand holding the sword slowly lost strength. Tailley’s great sword, overused to its limit, rolled on the floor.

Tailley, completely losing all strength in her trembling legs, knelt down and sat on the floor.

Her shoulders slumped like that… Tailly slowly closed her eyes.

“…”

Yenika sighed after seeing Tailly like that.

You must have had a lot of trouble.

It wasn’t an easy task.

I was just about to report to Ed through the spirits that the whole situation was over.

– Woe!

Geomsungsik – Heogeomsul.

That strike, which was a sword strike using only magical power without a sword… split the air.

Magical swordsmanship alone cannot pierce the forces of spirits protecting Yenica.

However, Tailley, who is almost unconscious, takes the next step using instinct alone.

“…!”

Yenica quickly wrapped magic around her body and picked up the Delheim hourglass. However, the target of Taily’s sword attack is not Yenica’s body.

A giant fire lizard that serves as the commander-in-chief of the spirit army guarding Yenika’s body.

Even the severed tail was restored in an instant… That high-ranking spirit standing there, occupying almost all the space in the huge VIP waiting room.

– Sigh!

Following the Heo Sword Jutsu, the next Sword Seong Ceremony appears in Tailley’s body.

Sword Seongsik – Dragon Slayer Sword.

The sharp blade, which cuts through any thick skin and scales, splits Tarkan in two in an instant.

Takan, a high-ranking spirit who was having a hard time with even the professors, was torn to pieces when he closed his eyes for a moment.

There is little consciousness in Tailley’s eyes. Just driven by instinct… I tried to point my sword at Yenika, who acts as the main body of the spirit army…

– Kaang!

Just like that, Tailly rolled on the floor. Now I really don’t even have the strength to aim my body.

Just cutting Tarkan down took almost all of his life force. Before the pieces of Tarkan’s body could hit the floor, Tailly’s body rolled on the floor first, kicking up dust.

“…”

Yenika looked at Tailly with wide eyes.

Tailly was struggling to somehow push off the floor and stand up.

“Ugh…keaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah…!”

He tried hard to get up, but Tailley’s body no longer moved as he wanted.

Yenika quietly watched him grit his teeth several times and then gently closed his eyes.

However, the fighting spirit is still alive in Tailley McLaure’s eyes.

That was the last variable.
