However, his body could not be considered normal either. My vision was dizzy and my stomach was upset. My eyes felt like they were going to pop out, and the hand holding the blade trembled slightly.

The intrusion suit, which had been repeatedly subjected to physical shock, was also tattered in several places. Scratches and tears were all over my body.

The only thing that can be completely blocked by blockade is magic that enters the space. There is no way to completely block the magical beasts pouring in from all directions and the physical strikes of the black magician with a strengthened body.

As we were dealing with the struggling people scattered in all directions, we had long since gone beyond the limits of what we could cure with medicine.

Perhaps, when the effectiveness of the medicine wears off and side effects occur, you will have to return to the cradle and purify for a while.

However, there was a certain sense of satisfaction in his heart. It was his first time facing such a large and powerful enemy alone, but he overcame it anyway.

If they had occupied the camp, fortified it, and even polluted water sources or crops with their magic, greater chaos would have occurred later. It was heartbreaking to see innocent people sacrificed, but there was no way to protect everyone alone.

He was satisfied that he had safely sent the person he had to protect first, and by suppressing the intruders early, he could hope for any survivors in the city. The 30% of students who were not seen may also be hiding somewhere and protecting themselves.

” That’s ridiculous… Cough… ! There was nothing like this in Revelation… Obviously this place… New heaven… ”

“Revelation?”

In his lament, a strangely uncomfortable stumbling block catches Lee Hyun’s ears.

“… The central army will arrive soon. until then… ”

“Cough… Central Army… ? Puh, puh… Kick… Hahaha… !”

The warlock who heard Lee Hyeon’s words suddenly burst into laughter. Lee Hyun was embarrassed by the man’s reaction. Even though the blood was rushing from my neck every time, I didn’t care at all and poured out all my blood on the floor.

“The Lady of Red Flowers… Cough! That bitch would never… I can’t get out of the South alive… Cough!”

“… What?”

At the man’s words, cracks began to appear little by little in his heart, which had been filled with satisfaction. Anxiety, not the medicine, made his heart beat even faster.

“Puhuh… The goal of this action is… It’s not just the destruction of the South… Cough! A powerful spiritist who will become a great danger in the future… I have a chance to kill you… Do you think I’ll leave him alone?”

“What is that… ”

“Losing an entire corps is painful, but… Cough! It’s worth it if you exchange it for the spirit master, and the succession of Jeokhwa… Cough!”

The warlock, who noticed Lee Hyeon’s embarrassment, continued speaking in an even more amused manner.

“Puhuh… You’re so confident and you look bad. Jinryeong is just the beginning. You guys… Cough! You’ll never guess what’s planned… ! Not only the South, but this entire dirty country will end… !”

The man wearing glasses could not continue speaking. Lee Hyeon blew off his head and ran straight toward the northern gate where Yeon Myeong-ha had left.

Although my body had already accumulated a serious overload, I didn’t care at all. Anxiety filled his mind.

I thought failing once was enough. If he repeats the same mistake again, he will never be able to forgive himself.

***

“Ha… ha… !”

I leaned against a rock in the misty canyon and panted heavily. Her left arm, hit by demonic energy, was limp and dripping blood, but no longer showed any movement.

The anti-violence uniform that Lee Hyeon had forced her to wear earlier was in pieces and tattered, rolling around at her feet. If it hadn’t been for that, he would have been fatally injured long ago.

When I retraced the way I came and reached the canyon between the gateway city and Jinryeong, I caught a glimpse of a little hope. However, she and her companions were ambushed in the center of the canyon.

The other students had already long since dispersed. The surrounding area was a dense primeval forest, and with the blood-red fog added, it was impossible to find the way. At this point, there was no way to guess whether they were alive or dead.

-Quaang!

We managed to block the red bullets flying from the forest on the side by erecting a barrier. Then, he used his remaining strength to attack in the same direction. The sound of a falling limb is heard along with the sound of crunching breathing.

“Ha… Hmm… !”

Dozens of corpses were lined up along the footsteps of Yeon Myeong-ha. However, the red eye lights surrounding it were twice that much.

She was now being hunted. I also felt that the limit was getting closer and closer. No matter how powerful a wizard is, he cannot change the battlefield alone. This has been the law of the world that has continued throughout the history of magic.

“The Lady of Red Flowers is not very nice.”

Someone walks out from the red shadows covering the surroundings and speaks leisurely. Even at first glance, he is a middle-aged man who looks full of evil.

In one of his hands, a huge awl composed of red demonic energy had already been created and was aimed at her heart.

-Click…

Yan Yanha gritted her teeth and glared at him as hard as she could. She was able to recognize the man’s identity without difficulty. His montage was always drawn on the wanted notices that were distributed ad nauseam to the students of the cradle every week.

“Tiger of the South… ”

“This is such an honor that the daughter of a very prestigious family recognizes it.”

-Phew…

The man makes a comical and exaggerated gesture and bows halfway towards her. At this, a lot of ridicule and ridicule could be heard from the forest filled with blood-red fog.

Chief of the Guerrilla Leadership Department of the Southern Army of the People’s Liberation Front. A wanted person with a ‘black’ rating, given only to a very small number of the most dangerous criminals. Lee Ji-sang, the ‘Tiger of the South’, was his name.

He was already a giant among giants, with a track record of single-handedly killing more than double the number of South Korean military punitive forces. Both young wizards with a promising future and veteran commanders who had experienced many hardships met terrible deaths at his hands.

The evil warlock who had disappeared for several years and had not been seen at all now appeared in front of her.

No matter how powerful the spirit master was, there was absolutely nothing he could do in this situation. Moreover, there are countless groups of warlocks surrounding him behind him.

“… Why did you stay active all this time and only now start working?”

“Because it’s time. Because the promised moment prophesied by the Revelator is approaching.”

Yeon-sik frowned at his incomprehensible words. Revelator? Was there a guy called that in the rebel army? No matter how much I look back, I have no recollection of ever seeing such material.

“And your death will be the perfect signal to announce a new era. No, isn’t it?”

“A revelation… that is… ”

“I became sad at a young age, but it was nothing special. I hope you will be reborn in paradise in your next life.”

As if he didn’t want to mix up any more unnecessary words, he fired the red magic awl that was floating on his hand straight at Yeon Myeong-ha.

“Like a dog… ”

There was no longer any strength left to open the wall. I just felt pity and closed my eyes tightly, sensing the end.

Funny enough, what came to her mind was a man wearing a pervert-like mask.

He tormented himself until the last moment. Perhaps it was because of him that all of this happened.

Despite being a lowly bastard, he dared to mock himself, the heir of a prestigious family, to his face. In the ensuing duel, he added humiliating conditions and inflicted a shame on her that she would never forget for the rest of her life. I still occasionally felt phantom pain in the area where he was hit in the duel.

His intimidation and abuse continued without end. He came into the dormitory without any hesitation and took over right next to his bedroom.

He used hexes to make his body unable to sleep properly without him and even forced him into a shameless slave contract, turning himself into a half-puppet.

Even if they were engaged to be married, all kinds of secret and personal details that could not be shown to him were revealed to him.

However, on the other hand, it completely eliminated the mental pollution of enemy hatred that no one could solve. It gave me back the joy of having happy, sweet dreams.

It was also thanks to the mysterious power he possessed that he was able to come all the way to the south, even though he was unable to leave the capital.

What happened to him now? Probably dead. His death must have had its own share. He, out of pity, risked his life to fulfill his request.

I can only lament that my hope was dashed at the last moment.

-Quaang!

After a fleeting flash of light passes by. The sound of something exploding can be heard from a very close distance. So, I was very surprised that I didn’t feel any pain anywhere in my body. I thought he was already dead, but seeing that his five senses were still vivid, it seemed like he wasn’t.

Eventually, an unbelievable sight unfolds before Yeon-hyeong-ha’s eyes as she slowly opens her eyes.

“You… ”

“Ha, ha… ”

What filled her field of vision was the broad back of the male student she thought was already dead. Instead of hitting her directly, the Magi only shattered the rocks on both sides and made a dent in the soil.

“It’s too late… I didn’t… ”

“Uh, how… ”

He exhaled harshly, as if he would collapse at any moment.

“How… Here… ”

“Obviously… I signed a contract… Didn’t you… ”

He said it as if it was so obvious.

“At any risk… I will protect you.”
