The Academy’s Barbarian Chapter 73

(3)

7.

A body split in half.

Duode collapsed without even being able to scream. Internal organs and chunks of flesh falling to the floor. Decem was shocked by this unexpected attack.

But the embarrassment was short-lived.

Sensing a crisis, he quickly distanced himself from Ulan. He quickly shouted to his colleagues who were behind him.

“Nonus! Warp space!”

Ulan suddenly closed the distance and approached.

That man is dangerous.

You should never get involved! From the moment I first saw it, my instincts were frantically warning me.

‘… … ‘I don’t see any chance of winning!’

So I chose to run away.

For that to happen, Nonus’ help was essential.

We need to warp space to blow Ulan out of the forest, then buy time to escape.

But no matter how long you wait.

Nonus’ magic did not activate.

“What are you doing?! Quick magic… … !”

A time when I urged myself to write evil in a frustrated mind.

A somewhat dull noise was heard.

Tuk! Degurrr!

A round object soon rolled across the ground.

It was the face of an old man with his eyes wide open. It was Nonus’ head.

“… … !?”

Decem was shocked when he saw this.

Well, that would be worth it.

Ulan has never been out of his sight since he split Duode in half.

‘Wow, when did you start swinging the ax?!’

It wasn’t visible at all.

Also, the distance between Ulan and Nonus is ten steps away.

But how can someone cut off a head in one fell swoop from that distance? And so fast that even advanced wizards cannot perceive it.

‘Wait, you didn’t notice?’

At that moment, goosebumps appeared all over my body.

It was a guess that suddenly crossed my mind.

A monster that can exert absolute influence within a certain range. A superhuman who moves much faster than what the eyes can perceive.

Decem’s eyes widened.

“S-No way, Master… … ?!”

And that moment.

Ulan’s harsh reply came back.

Quaaaaaaaaa!

He grabbed Decem’s face with his palm and slammed his head into the ground.

“Ugh!”

A pain that breaks the head.

Decem let out a short scream.

At the same time, I gained enlightenment.

‘It was clear just now…’ … .’

Before Ulan grabbed his face, he could not properly observe Ulan’s movements even for a single moment.

This means only one thing.

‘The power of the master!’

A face that instantly turned pale.

Soon a silent scream came out.

Why is a monster called a strategic weapon of a country in a forest like this? Aren’t there only academy students here?

All kinds of questions arose.

But the embarrassment was short-lived.

‘… … Stay calm, let’s stay calm.’

Decem soon regained his composure.

Because I realized that I couldn’t survive if I didn’t calm down. So, I tried to find a way to get out of this crisis as calmly as possible.

‘He didn’t kill me right away.’

There is only one reason.

I guess it’s because I have something to ask.

And in the current situation, it was obvious that this was the question Ulan would ask himself. Perhaps it means disclosing the positions of other colleagues.

‘then… … .’

The best solution is to take time.

Next, without Ulan noticing, the clones scattered in the forest are gathered together.

Afterwards, Decem will win as long as he has the opportunity to escape out of the Master’s territory.

‘Okay, let’s do this.’

Now all that remains is to put the plan into action.

But Decem didn’t know.

Ulan is used to fighting Abyss worshipers. So, before asking a question, I first swing the ax.

puck! Quad deuk!

The sound of tearing flesh and breaking bones.

Decem’s ankle just fell off.

“… … ! “Kwaaaaaak!”

An unexpected surprise attack.

Decem screamed in excruciating pain. It felt like his mind was bleaching white from the terrible pain, but Ulan did not stop his actions.

Quack! Ujijik!

He even cut off Decem’s other ankle cleanly, as if slaughtering an animal. Only after eliminating all elements of escape.

Ulan finally opened his mouth.

“Let me ask you one thing.”

“Bwak! Ugh… … .”

Decem let out a painful moan.

At first glance, it might have seemed pathetic, but Ulan didn’t even blink. She just asks the question she wants to ask with her dry face.

“How did you summon Candira?”

“… … ?!”

Decem was surprised by those words.

Candira, a vampire plant from the abyss.

At present, there are not many people who know this name and existence. So I asked back with a face filled with pure curiosity.

“Hmm, how do you know Candira…?” … “Wow!”

But what came back was a big fist.

My bone rang with a dizzying pain.

When the pain was so strong that he couldn’t even scream, Ulan opened his mouth again.

“Only answer what is asked.”

“I don’t know! I do not know either!”

“… … .”

“Really! “I swear, I really don’t know!”

When Ulan raised his fist again, the guy was startled and waved his hand wildly.

“Among us, only Duode knows how to summon the monster of the abyss!”

“Who is Duode?”

“The big guy you got rid of earlier… … .”

The moment I said that.

A fist filled with spirit flew out.

Whoa! Kwasik!

With the sound of the skull being crushed, the head fell to a pulp. He, like his other colleagues, died without even being able to scream.

“You chose the wrong person to save.”

Of the three, I kept him alive because he seemed the smartest, but I got the worst. Frowning, Ulan kicked his headless torso.

That’s when I got up from my seat.

Saaaaa!

Suddenly, the sense of foreignness I felt in the forest disappeared.

A forest that has returned to its original state.

The illusions that I occasionally felt around me evaporated like smoke. Probably because they defeated the person who created them.

“Then what’s left now… … .”

Joining Delia.

All you have to do is deal with the remaining Abyss worshipers. Noah said there were six of them in total.

After setting a new goal.

Ulan wiped the flesh off the axe.

Then, just as I was about to turn towards the west.

Suddenly, I felt a new presence.

Sreuk! Slurp!

A familiar presence felt behind my back.

Ulan immediately looked back.

Soon, I made eye contact with an unexpected person.

[Purring!]

A huge wolf rising from the shadows.

It is a white wolf.

The appearance of a guy appearing out of nowhere and stretching. Ulan widened his eyes as if he was surprised.

“Have you been in my shadow all this time?”

No particular answer came back.

The white wolf just nodded.

It was a positive answer.

At this, Ulan tilted his head again.

“But why until now…” … .”

You didn’t come out, did you?

Just when I was about to ask a question that suddenly occurred to me.

Suddenly the white wolf moved its body. The place he headed was where the corpses of the Abyss worshipers were located.

This guy, among others, tore the body of Nonus into pieces. As if he was venting his anger. There was a guess that suddenly occurred to me at this sight.

“Is it because of that guy that you couldn’t come out?”

[Grung! purr!]

A white wolf nodding its head vigorously.

Ulan’s guess was correct.

As the space throughout the forest was distorted, the white wolf was trapped in the shadows until now. So, as a way to vent his anger, he tore the body of the culprit to pieces.

Kwasik! Crack! Snap!

With the terrifying sound of flesh being torn and bones breaking, his body was split into hundreds of pieces.

[Garring!]

Only then did the white wolf smile with satisfaction.

The guy who was trying to come back this way suddenly hit his nose on the ground.

When I was sniffing as if I was looking for something.

Suddenly, the guy’s body grew to more than twice its current size. It is twice as big as a wild horse.

Then he turned his back to Ulan.

The wagging tail is a bonus. An action that allows you to immediately understand what it means.

Ulan asked straight away.

“Are you telling me to get on your back?”

[Grrr!]

The white wolf revealed its teeth and grinned.

As if it were the correct answer.

Since there was no reason to refuse, Ulan quickly jumped on the white wolf’s back. Immediately, a sprint as fast as the wind began.

Quagga-ga-ga-ga!

It was truly an ignorant charge.

The white wolf went straight towards the west, destroying everything that stood in its way. Not long afterwards, he was seen catching Ulan’s eye.

“That… … .”

A shooting star falling through dark clouds.

It is a familiar scene to Ulan.

Because that was a magic that Delia frequently used in her past life. At that moment, the amulet I received from Noah trembled slightly.

Flash!

An amulet that shines with vibration.

The blue light soon pointed straight ahead.

In other words, Delia is 3km ahead.

Furthermore, there must also be a reason why she had no choice but to use that level of magic.

And what that is-.

There was no need to look further.

“Abyss worshiper!”

There are three remaining prey.

Ulan grinned and grabbed the axe.

The time for hunting has arrived.

8.

At a time when Ulan was cutting down trees.

Delia stared at the man in front of her with a face that showed no signs of fear.

A wizard without both eyes.

I was concerned about the bizarre appearance, but there was something else that caught my eye even more.

‘The surrounding magical power… … .’

It fluctuates unstably.

As if it would explode at any moment. And the strong power of the curse was felt in the magic power itself. There is only one of them with this kind of magical power.

A crazy wizard who gave up being human.

There are only Abyss worshipers.

‘… … scared.’

The moment I recognized this.

Delia clenched her fists.

The trembling that hasn’t subsided since a while ago. The golden eyes also trembled slightly.

Then.

Suddenly, a man spoke up.

“Then let me introduce myself first.”

With strangely twisted mouth corners.

He bowed his head politely.

“I am Quint Vinitas. As you just said, he is a worshiper of the abyss and a wizard who has reached the level of an archmage.”

As if to show off that he was an archmage.

Quint fully revealed his magical power.

It was a magical power so great that it could swallow everything, but Delia’s expression was sour.

After a moment, she shook her head.

“… … lie.”

“what?”

“Really, the archmage is different.”

Gyeol refers to the texture of magical power.

Undoubtedly, great wizards are beings beyond ordinary wizards. Therefore, it has a unique ‘texture’ that is completely different from ordinary magical power.

Delia could see this.

‘On the other hand, with that man… … .’

The archmage’s fate is not visible.

So, if we were to simply estimate it based on the level of magical power, it would probably be a ‘mage’, the level just before an archmage.

That was the time when I was assessing the level of my opponent.

Suddenly Quint grinned.

“It looks like you can see the flow of magical power.”

That is not a response to a lie being discovered.

A reaction that makes you feel as if you lied on purpose for some kind of verification. When Delia’s eyebrows were shaking uneasily.

Rustle!

The surrounding bushes shook.

After a while, two men appeared.

Like Quint, they were also wearing gray robes.

“Then there is no need to verify it separately.”

“Once the verification is over, let’s take her quickly and leave. “Before I get caught up in something troublesome.”

One had no nose, and the other had tree roots sprouting where his arms should have been.

The same goes for unstable magical power.

In other words, they are both Abyss worshippers.

‘If you look at the results of magical power… … .’

It is definitely weaker than Quint.

Still, he can reach the level of an advanced wizard.

Just like Delia. Immediately after observing the situation up to this point, she bit her lip.

‘… … ‘It must be difficult to run away.’

There are three wizards of similar level to yourself. There was no way he could escape. Moreover, the current forest is in a situation where even the space is distorted.

So I had to make another choice.

Delia quickly finished her decision.

‘First of all, I have to take my time.’

Until an ally appears to help you.

Even if only Professor Stella was there, he would be able to deal with them to some extent. Of course, there were other reinforcements that she really wanted.

‘Ulan.’

If he were there, I would feel reassured just by being around him.

But the possibility of Ulan coming is small.

There is no guarantee when it will come again.

Therefore, instead of holding on to vain expectations, Delia decided to somehow overcome the difficulties with her own strength.

‘Honestly, it’s true that I’m scared, but… … .’

The enemy in front of you is a crazy wizard.

They are powerful enemies who use forbidden magic and even summon unknown monsters.

Still, I couldn’t give up.

Because Delia had something she wanted to do.

‘I want to meet Ulan again.’

The reason you have to survive.

With this engraved in my heart.

Delia finally made a decision.

To fight against the Abyss Cultists.

After a while, golden eyes sparkled like stars. It was the look in the eyes of someone who was determined to fight.
