The Extra’s Academy Survival Guide

Chapter 242



Battle of Belbroke (10)

The two one-eyed giants stood up with their heavy bodies, and their eye level was right at the top floor of the lofty royal residence.

With a heavy movement, he swung his hand and smashed one side of the royal residence, causing the outer wall to collapse. The soldiers were shooting arrows at the roof, but there was no sign of them hitting the giant.

While the two one-eyed giants were standing tall in the central garden of the royal residence, destroying everything around them, Princess Fenia was running through the corridors of the first floor with Emperor Cloel.

Her body was already covered in scratches and the hem of her dress was torn. It was uncomfortable to run, so I took off my shoes and threw them away, and even my white, soft feet were sore and bleeding.

Princess Fenia ran away with a frown on her face, and behind her, three giant bats were chasing after her, clinging to the wall of the hallway.

Occasionally, soldiers appeared and threw themselves at them to hinder their path, but they were only able to increase the distance slightly and were unable to completely ward off them.

And I wonder if there is any meaning to being ostracized in the first place. The garden of the royal residence was already filled with numerous monsters, and wherever you went, the sound of soldiers swinging their swords was filled.

There is no escape route.

Even my body was injured a lot.

While I was hiding in the audience room with Emperor Cloel, I used up almost all of my magic power to escape from the giant bat that attacked me. In the process, he suffered a scar on his forearm and a large cut on his right shoulder, but he was not in a position to sit out because of the pain.

“your majesty! Go out the back door! “I have a carriage waiting for you!”

A brave knight stood in front of the giant bat and shouted.

“Please escape to a safer place. “Our imperial guard will stop this at all costs!”

Even if you go out to the back gate and take a carriage, you don’t know where it’s going. Aken Island is already covered with monsters.

Still, it’s better than staying still. Emperor Cloel nodded and ran faster while holding Princess Fenia’s arm.

“Kaaaaaaaa! ”

As I turned down the hallway, I could hear the soldier screaming behind me. After all, it was reckless to stop it alone.

He somehow managed to survive by throwing away the loyal young knights as if they were expendable items.

Emperor Cloel sighed sadly with a serious expression on his face, and Princess Fenia also closed her eyes tightly.

As I exited the back of the main building of the royal residence without even having time to catch my breath, the night air completely filled my lungs. My spirit soared even more in the cold air, but I still felt distant when I saw the amount of monsters covering the sky.

Princess Fenia steeled herself again and this time took the lead and ran towards the back gate.

If we continue like this, we might get discovered by the flying monsters. Still, it’s a hundred times better than sitting still and being attacked.

Emperor Cloel, who couldn’t muster up courage, took a deep breath and ran.

The monsters flying in the sky glance at the two without hesitation. It’s as if two people, who at first glance appear to have insufficient fighting skills, are running for their lives.

It was the moment when the grotesquely twisted griffin spread its wings, convinced that it had found a good victim.

At that moment, the vast sky disappeared. Thousands of elemental magic circles covered the sky, and the flashes of light from them colored the world in an instant.

I was lucky. There is no more appropriate expression than that.

The moment the magic circles created by Lucy’s magic covered the sky, the eyes of all the monsters floating in the sky were focused on the magic circles.

A magic circle on a massive scale that has never been seen before, whether by humans or monsters.

The sheer number of magic circles left all the audience on Aken Island stunned, making everyone wonder if even Lucy Mayril could handle it.

Eventually, when the magic contained in those numerous magic circles is revealed… the world is colored in a flash of light.

– Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

An explosion of a scale that exceeds the limit instantly erases the world.

Light, much faster than sound, covers the sky, and the sound of the explosion that follows causes pain in the eardrums.

Not only the numerous monsters floating in the sky, but even Bellbroke, who was wrapped in chains, began to struggle in pain.

The countless monsters that covered the sky all disappeared for a moment.

Six pieces of rain are pouring down from the sky. The fragmented corpses of monsters cover Aken Island, and the green forests and gray-white buildings turn red.

– Patter-patter-

patter-patter-patter

-patter It seems as if everything covered in blood symbolizes hell.

Fenia felt goosebumps rising all over her body, but she continued to run along the back of the garden.

Because of that blow just now, almost all of the monsters that covered the sky disappeared.

Of course, considering Velbroke’s power to constantly summon monsters, it’s only a matter of time before we’re covered in numbers again.

Still, this moment is the only right time to escape to a safe zone.

I managed to find a safe area, avoiding only the monsters that had already landed on the ground. Then, we can at least protect Emperor Cloel’s personal safety.

With that confidence in mind, I reached the back gate and saw the huge carriage the driver had mentioned standing there. Princess Fenia gritted her teeth and ran out to quickly place Emperor Cloel in the carriage.

Then he climbed through the outside door of the carriage, went to the driver’s seat, and shouted urgently at the window.

“Let’s get going right now! “Hurry!”

After saying that and looking inside the coach seat, I held my breath.

The body of an old and mature coachman.

While waiting for the princess and the emperor at the carriage seat, he was attacked by a gremlin and died. There was a huge knife stuck in his shoulder.

And one of the gremlins eating the corpse made eye contact with Princess Fenia. Princess Fenia felt as if goosebumps were rising not only from her toes to her head, but also to each and every inner lining of her internal organs.

The gremlin with its sword drawn let out a roar and rushed towards Fenia, who was clinging to the carriage.

“Aaaah!”

Fenia quickly pushed her body to the side again, but the arm movement of the gremlin that broke the coach door and jumped out caused her to fall.

Fenia, rolling on the mud, saw the gremlin holding its sword backwards and trying to pierce her. I quickly rolled to the side and didn’t get stabbed, but my whole body ended up covered in mud.

Princess Fenia stood up without hesitation and gathered her magic power. Her specialty is water magic. I took out the cue ball and threw it at the gremlin.

The gremlin that was hit directly by the magic took a few steps backwards, screaming in pain. Fenia got up with a trembling body and thrust another ball into the corner of the gremlin’s eye.

Taking advantage of the gremlin’s pain as it clutches its eyes, he casts the mid-level water magic ‘Drowning’.

A puddle of water appears near the gremlin’s head, blocking his respiratory tract.

The gremlin resisted for a while and tried to release its magic, but Princess Fenia did not lose her concentration even as she was bleeding. After maintaining the magic for a long time, the gremlin eventually lost consciousness and collapsed.

Even though I am not a very strong elite monster, I ended up wasting too much time. It even feels like my body’s magical power has been used up.

Still, Princess Fenia gritted her teeth and got up and got on the carriage seat. When I saw the coachman’s corpse with half of his internal organs spilled out along with the blood, I started to lose consciousness again.

Even though Princess Fenia was almost completely out of stamina, she managed to move and push the coachman out of the carriage. The coachman’s body was spread out on the floor like trash. Princess Fenia felt sorry for not being able to properly show respect to the deceased, so she prayed for a moment and took the whip. Fortunately, the horses seem to be still safe.

It is possible to somehow evacuate out of the royal residence.

His entire body was covered in blood and mud, and he looked terrible… but he was alive and well.

The moment he thought that, the two horses were trampled by the one-eyed giant’s feet and exploded.

It happened in an instant.

Blood clings to the giant’s feet.

When I looked up, I saw a one-eyed giant who had come out of the garden and was looking down at Princess Fenia’s carriage.

It feels like I was trying to get rid of something by stepping on it all at once, but my aim failed and I ended up killing the horse. The one-eyed giant smiled horribly, saying he was going to step on it and destroy it this time. Those huge feet rise toward the sky again.

Die.

If you step on it, it explodes and you die.

There is no means of resistance.

I had to struggle to catch even a low-level gremlin, but there was no way to catch such a high-level monster.

The one-eyed giant slowly adjusted the position of his feet and was about to deliver the final blow.

– Boom! Quang!

The blond man who fell onto the carriage was not able to land properly and hit the outside wall and tumbled once. However, he didn’t care and just grabbed Princess Fenia’s arm and threw himself out of the carriage.

The man who rolled on the floor with Princess Fenia in his arms was clearly Ed Rosstaylor.

“Huh…!”

At the same time, a lioness made of water came out of the carriage carrying Emperor Cloel.

It was one second later that the carriage exploded under the giant’s foot.

– Kwaaaaang!

Dust rises.

Fenia, who barely came to her senses after sneezing, saw a man hugging her.

And then I hold my breath again.

The man was injured so badly that Fenia could not even be compared to him.

The amount of bleeding is unusual. At least a lot of the bleeding has stopped, and the wounds all over his body are a mess, as if he had been pierced by an awl or something.

It may have been painful even if she was just breathing, but she saved Fenia.

“Ed… Ross Taylor…! you…!”

Before he could continue speaking, the one-eyed giant’s eyes turned to the two people. Fenia came to her senses again at that moment. Now was not the time to remain still. If we continue like this, we will just end up being crushed by the giant’s feet.

But the giant never lifted his foot again.

– Whaaah!

The fire lizard that has brought out its huge body is actually slightly larger than the one-eyed giant.

It’s like watching a fight between monsters, but Tarkan’s fire magic is a fatal blow to the one-eyed giant who has no magic resistance.

Flames poured out of Tarkan’s mouth and covered the one-eyed giant.

Riding on top of the head were Yenica Palover and… Princess Fenia’s older sister, Selaha.

“This… this…”

“Princess Fenia.”

Ed endured the intense pain, stood up, and made eye contact with Princess Fenia right in front of his nose.

“I’m so glad you’re alive…”

Seeing him covered in blood and protecting Fenia’s safety until the end… Fenia is greatly embarrassed.

He ran all the way to the royal residence where this hell island was spread out, determined to protect Fenia no matter what happened.

The blood flowing from Ed’s body dripped down Fenia’s cheek.

Fenia was startled and looked at Ed quietly with shaking pupils… and then she spoke first.

“Treatment… Don’t you need to get treatment? “When I’m doing this right now…!”

– Whaaah!

Tarkan, who had subdued the one-eyed giant, lowered his head, and Princess Yenika and Selaha jumped from above him.

The two people who landed on the grass quickly ran over and supported Emperor Cloel, with Selah, and Ed Rothtaylor, with Yenica supporting him.

“Abama! Are you okay!”

“You are safe, my daughter Selaha! I was worried about you…! thank god. “What a relief!”

“I also see that Abama is safe…”

Selaha couldn’t finish his sentence because he was so relieved.

Ed, who had put Fenia down in his arms, managed to get up with Yenika’s support.

“Ed! I’m not feeling well… What should I do if he suddenly jumps like that? Really Ed… “If you bleed this much, it wouldn’t be surprising if you died right away…!”

When Yenika shouted in a worried voice, Ed raised his head again and spoke.

“There is no time for a long explanation. Princess Fenia. “You need to go to where Tailly is right now.”

“I beg your pardon…?”

“We… have to catch that dragon here and now. Otherwise, it will become a disaster that spreads throughout the empire.”

After hearing those words, Emperor Cloel, who managed to stand up with Selaha’s support, spoke.

“You are… Sir Ed Rosstaylor…”

“Your Majesty… it is an urgent situation, so I would like to slowly organize the situation and convey it to you… but we do not have time for that.”

Ed spoke while suppressing the rising pain.

“First of all… you should head to a place where Tailly might be… Ofilis Hall… which was a garrison close to the Trix Hall where Tailley’s group was gathered… Ofilis Hall… It’s better there than here. It will be safe… and… ugh…”

Ed frowned as he bled once more. Jenica, who was supporting Ed, narrowed her eyes at the sight and spoke to Princess Fenia.

“Medical staff. There are no medical staff! Ed needs to get treatment first!”

“It looks like that, but right now, the monsters have invaded the center of the royal family’s quarters… In fact, it’s safe to say that there are no medical staff left! “I think they’re almost all dead…”

“We came all the way here… but you’re saying Ed can’t get treatment?”

Princess Fenia looked at Ed’s wounds with trembling eyes.

“But… yes… I can find a way to do it, even if it’s just simple first aid…”

“That’s it. “You can go to the Ofilis Center to receive treatment.”

In any case, Ed Rosstaylor’s purpose in coming here was not to receive treatment.

Even though I was losing my mind right now, the reason Ed came here was clear.

“If we can confirm that Princess Fenia is safe, then that’s fine.”

Fenia still looked at Ed with a puzzled expression.

It was a long relationship, and most of it was a relationship that led to a contract… but she never thought that Ed would do his best for her like this.

To think that he would run to the royal quarters in such a state with the sole intention of saving Fenia. Just watching it was an incredible amount of willpower.

“Ed… Ross Taylor… you… you…”

Ed gritted his teeth and turned his gaze back to Emperor Cloel.

Anyway, the goal now is to catch Belbroke. In order to do that, he had to take Princess Fenia with him.

In a situation like this, if you were to say that you would include Fenia in the Belbroke punitive force, there is no way that Emperor Cloel would agree.

Still, I had to explain the situation as best as I could and take Fenia with me.

“Your Majesty the Emperor.”

Ed lowered his head, not paying attention to the blood running down his face.

“As you may already be fully aware, what is happening now is in fact a national disaster. If we don’t solve it here and now, the casualties will far exceed tens of thousands. Perhaps… it wouldn’t be surprising if the empire’s legacy ended here.”

“That’s… that’s right…”

“I don’t know whether you will believe it or not. Still, let me tell you, there is a way to defeat Velbroke. But… of course it’s not easy. But I will try my best…”

Ed, who refused to let Yenika help him for a moment, walked on under his own power… and bowed his head in front of Emperor Cloel.

“Princess Fenia is needed. Please allow me to take Princess Fenia.”

“…”

Fenia, who was lying on the floor, suddenly blushed and her shoulders trembled.

Princess Selaha, who was supporting Emperor Cloel, watched quietly and suddenly raised her voice.

“Ed Rosstaylor! “Don’t you feel a bit strange when you ask me something like that?”

At Selaha’s words, there was silence.

No one would think that’s what he meant, so you might think he was making a fuss… but Selaha was speaking more sincerely than you might think.

That’s because Fenia’s expression was unusual from earlier.

Yenika also seemed to have a strange sense of wildness… She was looking around with an anxious expression.

However, Emperor Cloel is a man of insight.

The more urgent the situation, the more urgent he always gets to the point.

“Recklessness should not be mistaken for courage. Ed Rosstaylor. That Seongchangryong… is a mythical monster that even the first swordsman Luden had to risk his life for.”

“But you can’t be put to death without even resisting. If we can’t finish it here, the damage will spread throughout the continent. “First of all, I plan to unite the various garrison forces within Aken Island and resist.”

“Are you going to summon all those who are torn and scattered all over the island, unable to stand on their own and unable to move, into one place?”

“Fortunately, I can persuade the leaders of each garrison.”

Combat Club student chief Dyke Elphelan,

Lortel Keheln, acting president of the Sylvania branch of the Elte Merchant Association.

Sylvania Academy student body president Tanya Rosstaylor.

Saint Clarice of the Holy Emperor Telos Church.

Belle Maia, the head maid of the top-class dormitory, Ofilis Building.

They are all leaders with different values, different lifestyles, and different courses of action in emergency situations.

However, if there is one common denominator among all these different people, it is that at the center of the tangled human relationships is a man named Ed Rothtaylor.

The spirits holding Yenika’s letter were already flying and scattering here and there on Aken Island.

Originally, it would have been difficult to send a spirit because of the monsters lined up, but with Lucy’s magic temporarily eliminating the demons in the sky… conditions were created to send a message much more quickly.

Lucy’s elemental magic was almost a struggle… but as a result, it made it possible for the communication network to be connected between each station more quickly.

“I sent a message asking you to take responsibility and gather at Ofilis Hall; “You all know that if you just hold out in the current situation anyway, you will only face catastrophe.”

Lortel was protecting the store building by using ice magic to kill monsters among the dying merchants. Suddenly, Charis, a low-ranking wind spirit in the shape of a sparrow, flies in and sits on his shoulder.

While the mercenaries of the commercial association are screaming and fighting, outsiders requesting protection are constantly pouring into the commercial building.

In the midst of such confusion, Lortel discovers a letter tied to the foot of the spirit sitting on his shoulder and quickly takes it out and reads it.

Even though it is a dire crisis, I somehow manage to smile and look up at the sky covered in magic circles.

I decided it was a gamble worth taking.

The same goes for Dyke Elphelan, who is rescuing survivors at the combat unit’s training center. After receiving Ed’s letter, he places his chin in thought and eventually shouts out to the students of the combat club stationed there.

The road to Ophilis Hall has already been cleared to some extent by the blood-crazed Clevius. Running along that path is low risk. It was a decision worth making.

Tanya Rosstaylor, who headed to the living area, also nodded after receiving the letter. Since Ziggs has already left for Ofilis Hall, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to follow him. In particular, if it is a garrison centered around Ed Rosstaylor, it will be safer because many of the core forces within the academy will be gathered there.

Although the distance is a bit further, there is a greater chance of safety being guaranteed at Ofilis Hall. It might be right to break the travel route even now. First of all, it is easiest to follow Ed Ross Taylor’s path.

The same goes for Saint Clarice, who was protesting with priests at the Bachelor’s Cathedral.

Because she had heard some rumors about Bellbroke’s resurrection, she was able to deal with it more calmly than expected. It was a quicker resurrection than expected, but I was still mentally prepared.

Clarisse had been waiting for Ed to contact her from the beginning. This is because the man who predicted Belbroke’s resurrection would try to contact him in some way and discuss a course of action.

From the beginning, Clarice didn’t even suspect the plan to gather at Ofilis Hall and go to subdue Belbroke.

All he did was quickly run towards the barricade in the square in front of the cathedral to give instructions to the priests.

“I can assure you. “Everyone will gather at Ofilis Hall.”

“Ha… hehe…”

Emperor Cloel laughed as if he was dumbfounded.

Even the emperor of a country has personnel that are difficult to control at once. In particular, bigwigs such as Saint Clarice and Lord Lortel were more likely to make conservative decisions in such urgent situations.

Is it possible to capture such characters at once and gather them into the Ofilis Hall?

Those who lead a group must always calculate risks. I know better than anyone how difficult it is to forcefully move the station and gather in one place while fighting through monster tribes… I know better than anyone else how politically arduous it is to make all the different leaders move with one mind.

Nevertheless, this man is confident that he can unite the scattered forces into one place.

There are two types of people who can do something like that.

Or the embodiment of politics.

Or a hero.

Which one is this guy? Emperor Cloel looked at Ed, who was bleeding, for a moment, but did not come to a conclusion.

It doesn’t matter either way.

Right now, it’s important to address the situation at hand.

Whether it’s a politician who is good at politics or a hero who can control people… the key point is that the leaders of the station follow Ed’s wishes.

In that case, wouldn’t it be the right decision for the emperor to trust this man’s policy?

Emperor Cloel quietly looked at Ed Rosstaylor.

Is this a new flame that has bloomed in the Ross Taylor family that Crepin was holding and shaking?

One way or another, it was not a family rotten to the roots.
