I Became the Academy’s Female Delinquent Chapter 84. Demigod Ascension

An overwhelming energy erupted from Elsie, a golden power blazing like a beacon of hope rising from despair.

KWA-AAAA!

“Kuh-uhk!”

Doyun, shielding his face with his arm, barely managed to stay standing.

He felt the transcendent aura emanating from Elsie in its entirety.

The power had reached a point where it possessed physical substance.

‘Even with the Tarnkappe amplifying me twelvefold, it’s too much…! I’m going to be pushed back!’

Was this the transformation Elsie had spoken of? Judging by the sheer magnitude of the power, it was greater than anything Doyun had ever witnessed.

‘Demigod Ascension, huh…’

Everything was shrouded in mystery, but one thing was clear. It was…

‘Elsie’s severely injured body… it’s regenerating! No, it’s even more than that…’

It was being enhanced. The hole in Elsie’s abdomen, caused by Jormungandr’s attack, was healing in an instant.

Golden energy poured out. Her blood-soaked body was now pristine, as if nothing had happened. And her dazzling silver hair, which had been fluttering, was gradually turning black.

‘She’s changing!’

Elsie’s hair was turning black from the ends, as if being dyed. Her hair, now black near the roots, was reminiscent of the Otherworldly Bloodline.

“E-Elsie?!”

Startled by Doyun’s cry, Elsie turned her head and looked at him.

Her blue eyes were full of life.

Aside from her hair turning black, Elsie’s appearance remained unchanged.

But there was a subtle shift in her aura. Elsie’s features had become slightly sharper, prompting Doyun to ask, as if to confirm,

“You’re Elsie, right…?”

Elsie’s eyebrows tilted.

“It’s not that grand of a transformation, are you saying you can’t recognize me? I’m disappointed, Han Doyun.”

Doyun’s face flushed at Elsie’s playful smile.

Meanwhile, above Elsie’s head, a slightly sharp-edged wing ornament faintly floated like a mirage.

Demigod Ascension: Transformation, Sigrdrífa.

Elsie’s hidden skill upon reaching Demigod status.

She had finally unleashed this ability, which she had been unable to use for a long time after her possession due to its demanding requirements and immense burden.

A fierce smile appeared on Elsie’s face.

She had drawn upon the power of Sigrdrífa, the strongest Valkyrie, transforming and eliminating all hostile status ailments. And completely restoring her vitality.

But complete recovery was merely a secondary function. The transformation granted her extreme stat enhancements and near-immunity resistance.

It was a dramatic, overpowered skill that could turn the tide in any battle situation.

“I’ll show you. The power of a true Demigod.”

Elsie, declaring to Doyun, glared at Jormungandr.

She could sense that Jormungandr and Loki were shaken by the sudden change.

**WHOOSH-!**

But again, that chilling compression sound. Jormungandr was about to spew out his deadly Eitr once more.

Elsie’s eyes narrowed.

_**PAAAAAANG-!!!**_

The ultra-high-pressure poison cutter was unleashed again at a speed that transcended perception.

Valkyrie Armament Summon: Brynja-hildr!

The Brynja-hildr, which had been easily pierced by Jormungandr’s attack moments ago, deployed a golden barrier.

The Brynja-hildr clashed with the Eitr once more.

KWA-AAAA!!!

A tremendous explosion erupted, accompanied by a deafening roar that tore through the air.

“…It seems a little weaker than before? It must be difficult to use in rapid succession?”

But this time, it didn’t penetrate. The poison beam, unable to pierce the barrier, glanced off and split the sea in vain.

Elsie’s smile deepened.

“Han Doyun!”

Doyun, who had been watching in a daze, flinched and replied to Elsie’s call.

“…Uh, yeah?”

“Leave those bastards to me. I have a personal vendetta, a very… very, very big one!”

“But Elsie! It’s dangerous to go alone…”

“Don’t worry.”

PAANG!

Elsie, unleashing a burst of golden energy, dismissed the Brynja-hildr and turned to Doyun.

“I won’t lose to anyone in my current state.”

“…”

Doyun stared blankly at Elsie’s valiant figure.

Elsie was right. She didn’t seem like she could lose to anyone right now. He had that vague conviction.

“And Doyun, you still have an unresolved opponent, don’t you?”

As Elsie said that and turned her gaze elsewhere, Doyun seemed to realize something and turned his head as well.

Loki’s raven, Huginn, was charging at them with incredible speed.

“I’ll leave that one to you.”

Doyun quietly nodded. He could feel the trust in Elsie’s voice.

If she trusted him, then he would trust her as well.

Doyun charged towards Huginn, who was flying so fast that he almost looked like an afterimage.

“Well then… looks like it’s just us now? Ready to get your ass kicked?”

As Elsie exuded killing intent, Jormungandr began to reveal his serpentine form from the depths of the sea.

[To think a human could withstand Eitr…]

“Sorry to break it to you, but I’m not human, I’m a Demigod.”

[I’ve never heard of a Demigod like you!]

Elsie shrugged, shaking her head at Jormungandr’s chilling cry that seemed to resonate in her mind.

The translucent wing ornament floating above her head slowly followed Elsie’s head as she moved.

“What would a snake stuck in the sea know? More importantly, that first attack stung a little? You better grit your teeth. Wait… can snakes even do that?”

[You insolent wench…!]

Elsie took a step.

She took a step towards Jormungandr.

_PAANG!!!_

The reef where Elsie had been standing exploded.

Elsie’s figure disappeared. No, she hadn’t disappeared. She was just moving too fast to be perceived.

[!!!]

Jormungandr, startled, could hear Elsie’s voice near his head.

“I haven’t punched something this big with my fist very often… I’m getting excited?”

He couldn’t react. He couldn’t even sense her.

A massive golden flash exploded before Jormungandr’s eyes.

Pure Strike!

**BUH-UUUUUNG!!!**

With a tremendous impact sound close to an explosion, Jormungandr’s head distorted.

A simple striking technique unleashed by a tiny girl. Yet, its power was beyond imagination.

The long body that had risen above the sea collapsed, and Jormungandr’s head plunged into the water.

The tremendous impact caused Loki, who had been on top of Jormungandr’s head, to hastily flee into the sky.

“Hey. Where are you going?”

Elsie tilted her head and looked up at Loki.

“Elsie…!”

Elsie, summoning Gungnir, gripped the spear shaft and aimed at Loki.

“Loki or whatever you are… you’ve been nothing but a pain in my ass, pulling all sorts of crap. You’re going to pay the price, got it?”

ZZWOOOONG!!!

An ominous vibration echoed from Gungnir.

Red particles began to erupt from behind Elsie, her black hair fluttering.

With the red particles spreading like blood-red wings, Elsie’s figure, along with Gungnir, trembled as if vibrating.

A special move for decisive battles,

**”Blóðörn!”**

Leaving behind a red tail like a shooting star, Elsie, wielding Gungnir, charged towards Loki.

_SHWAAAAAK-!!!_

The space began to distort as if tearing apart from the tremendous charge. Elsie’s vision stretched out, and the sound trailed behind her.

The golden energy emitted by the transformed Elsie and the red particles of Blóðörn created a magnificent spectacle that split the sky.

“Kuh-uhk!!! Elsie!!! If it weren’t for you!!!”

There was no way to avoid Elsie, who was charging with Gungnir at the forefront.

An intense light began to emanate from Loki’s jade-colored eyes. At the same time, a jet-black aura erupted from him.

KWA-AAAA!!!

A black beam mixed with jade was unleashed towards Elsie, who was soaring upwards.

The black aura emitted by Loki covered the sky, creating a temporary night in the area.

However.

The black Valkyrie wielding the golden spear did not stop.

She accelerated.

She only accelerated further.

She didn’t care about the approaching black beam.

CHWAAAAK!

The black beam that Loki unleashed collided with Elsie.

But it couldn’t stop her. It couldn’t stop Elsie’s charge.

The black beam that had been unleashed scattered in all directions as it collided with Elsie.

It couldn’t be stopped.

‘How am I supposed to stop something like this…’

_PAANG!_

As the black power that had been unleashed scattered, Elsie, clad in a reddish-gold aura, charged through the darkness like a sun banishing the night.

**PHWAK!**

“Kuh-huhk!!!”

He hastily deployed defensive magic, but he couldn’t stop Elsie’s ultra-high-speed charge with Blóðörn activated.

“This is an attack that completely ignores the target’s defense. You can’t stop it with such flimsy defenses.”

“Wh-what… cough! That kind of…!”

Loki, pierced by Gungnir, spat out black energy.

KWAK! As Elsie twisted Gungnir, a red aura exploded. Red particles erupted behind Loki, creating the shape of wings.

CHWAAAK!

As Elsie retrieved Gungnir, a limp Loki fell, spewing out black energy haphazardly.

The sunlight gradually began to seep into the sky, which had been temporarily covered in black energy.

Elsie, who had begun to fall after Loki, looked around for Doyun.

He was engaged in a fierce battle that caused the sea to explode and the reefs to crumble like crackers.

But even against the giant raven moving at an incredible speed that was difficult to follow with the eye, he didn’t seem to be losing.

Doyun, who had awakened his enhancement ability for some reason, didn’t seem to be anything to worry about.

Elsie smiled slightly and turned her gaze back to Loki, who had fallen into the sea.

_KWA-AAAA!!!_

The sea surged in an instant.

The enraged Jormungandr was emitting red heat from his crimson scales as he rose.

[SHAAAAAAK!!!]

With a terrifying scream that seemed to tear through the air, Jormungandr charged towards Elsie as he grew in size.

Loki, who had luckily clung to Jormungandr’s head, shouted.

“Cough! We have to combine our strength! Jormungandr! She’s beyond what we can handle right now!”

Loki, explosively emitting black energy from his abdomen pierced by Gungnir, began to enhance Jormungandr.

Unlike Fenrir, who had spent a long time without recovering his strength, Jormungandr had been sleeping in the deep sea without losing any of his power.

If his power was added to Jormungandr, they would be able to finish off that girl who was suddenly wielding an unreasonably powerful force.

That’s what he thought.

Jormungandr, wielding black energy, charged as he grew larger and larger.

Elsie, who was in free fall, blinked and quietly watched the scene.

‘He’s three times bigger than when I first saw him. Can he really get as big as the Jormungandr in the Aesir Saga?’

The Jormungandr of the Aesir Saga, who was so large that he only appeared as terrain. It would be a problem if he really became that big.

The city would be destroyed.

“That… absolutely can’t happen!!!”

How much time had she lost on her vacation because of that damn Loki? Elsie clenched her fists and trembled.

‘I haven’t even had a proper vacation yet! I haven’t even enjoyed anything properly!’

Elsie was furious.

Golden energy began to erupt from her.

Elsie extended her index finger straight and raised her arm.

KIIIIING!!!

A dazzling light burst from the tip of Elsie’s finger. Then, the golden energy that had been randomly emitted from Elsie began to converge on her finger.

KIIIIIIING!!!

A constant, piercing noise echoed.

The energy, compressed and concentrated to the limit, turned Elsie’s finger a dazzling gold.

She aimed that finger, shining as brightly as the sun, at Jormungandr, who had grown as large as a mountain.

It was a finishing move that could be used in her transformed state.

An unstoppable force of annihilation.

A flash with destructive power that transcended perception.

The name of the technique, created in awareness of the ultimate power produced by the shining finger, was…

**”Finger of Light!”**

A dazzling flash exploded from the tip of Elsie’s finger.

_PAAAAAAAANG-!!!_

The ultimate ray of light emitted from Elsie’s shining finger engulfed Jormungandr and Loki in an instant.

_KWA-AAAA!!!_

A power so appalling that it defied description. A flow of immense energy that seemed to split the world itself.

Not only did it engulf Jormungandr and Loki, who were charging towards her, but it also evaporated the seawater, creating a massive hole in the ocean.

Elsie gritted her teeth.

As expected, even in her enhanced transformed state, a finishing move with such an ultra-large power was quite a burden.

“Kuh…!”

She supported her right arm, which had used Finger of Light, with her left arm.

If she continued to release Finger of Light into the sea like this, the seabed topography might be altered and the ecosystem might be destroyed.

‘My power will be depleted too!’

Elsie struggled and raised her arm to change the aim of her finger to the sky.

As the aim of her finger gradually turned towards the sky, the overwhelming ray of destruction split the sea and shot into the sky.

“Hah… hah!”

Elsie, panting, stopped using Finger of Light.

KIIING-

The light of the shining finger, emitting a piercing noise, gradually faded.

Elsie, raising her trembling arm and staring blankly at her finger, fell straight down.

For some reason, she felt relieved.

She wanted to savor even this situation of falling into the sea with her eyes closed.

WHOOSH!

Just before she fell into the sea, someone caught Elsie as she fell. A familiar scent wafted to Elsie’s nose.

The person who had embraced her, as if cradling a precious doll, gently arranging Elsie’s black hair that billowed like waves in her transformed state, was none other than Doyun.

It was excellent timing. He had caught her before she fell.

“Oh…”

Elsie, briefly admiring, gave a thumbs up to Doyun, who was smiling down at her.

Sunlight poured down from the clear sky where the darkness had been dispelled.

The sea, swept away by a great force, crashed and broke before creating calm waves again.

It was Elsie’s clean victory.
