I Became an Academy Regular

◈ Manager (1)

A voice came from behind me that broke the uncomfortable silence.

“grandfather.”

Ellen Aiden stepped forward. It was clear she hadn’t seen her in at least two years. She had offered to introduce me last year, but she ended up not seeing her grandfather because she was fighting on the tower’s front lines.

The manager said to Ellen with a smile he had never seen before.

“It’s been a while, Ellen. It’s nice to see you as you seem to be getting along with your friends.”

And that’s it. Perhaps that was the end of what she had to say to her granddaughter, the manager turned her gaze away from Ellen and looked at her Noah Park.

I watched Ellen’s side face quietly. We don’t know what Ellen’s relationship with her grandfather was like, as it hasn’t been dealt with in detail. But it seems he was pretty dependent. Ellen’s eyebrows trembled.

At the time of the original sophomore year, Ellen and Castell turn to the enemy. But now you are by my side. Perhaps, just as Ron Ahtt lost his daughter and became a boss, the manager, Aiden, has a granddaughter like this, so his ultimate purpose has changed.

From becoming the 103rd top owner to trying to kill the 103rd top owner.

‘···still.’

What has been done so far has not changed and is not justified. So even if I ask you to come and hold my hand, it is natural that you will not believe it. There may be other purposes other than that.

There is no credible evidence that it absorbs erosion even by cutting its own lifespan to deal with the top owner.

The manager glanced at the coalition and sighed.

“At the end of the day, is the union going to come out like this? Stupid.”

“Are you going to stop us if we don’t cooperate with you?”

“right. Because there are variables in my plan. Even for that reason, you won’t be able to reach the 50th floor.”

Hearing that, Ellen intervened and raised her voice.

“Anyway, this is not the case, Grandpa! We might even be able to defeat Top-ju.”

He hung up as if it wasn’t worth listening to.

“What are you going to entrust to guys like you? The holy sword belongs to that young man, and the child of TOP is still not mature. Not well-forged…”

“—You matured after doing something like that?”

Park Noah, who was still silent, stepped forward. She already had a blue sword in her hand. Noah Park said as she passed Ellen.

“Ellen. I’m sorry, but I can’t.”

“That’s right. The enemy doesn’t change anyway. The only way to stop it is to knock it down.”

Drakhan also stood next to Noah Park with a black spear. I didn’t dry it. In the end, things went as planned in advance.

‘The predictive dream ends here.’

Contrary to the foresight that Beta had, it was impossible to simulate with multiple variables. In the end, I had to check it out myself. He had no choice but to change the future by going through the end of the predictive dream.

“Are the untitled people dealing with me? Do it if you can.”

The manager spread his arms while looking at Noah Park and Drakhan. Then came the sound of footsteps in the erosion resting on all sides. Soon those in robes appeared.

Dozens of ‘Necromancers’, direct pupils of Arihan Hector. In addition, there were administrators, wizards who followed Aiden, and other awakeners.

When Drakhan called out my name, Noah Park followed.

It runs along a black trajectory. As planned, the two moved to take down the manager. The signal you sent me meant one thing.

The manager’s personality is ‘infinite power’.

It is a cause that can absorb erosion because it draws power from the outside, and its representative effect is that mana does not run out and does not get tired.

[Special. 50 – The effect of ‘Seal of Personality’ is activated.]

Of the two perks obtained by slaying Desaruuk, the 50th perk, ‘Seal of Personality’.

[Unconditionally seals the personality of the specified target for 10 minutes/D-3]

This sealed the manager’s personality.

The manager, who was trying to wield the erosion, seemed to immediately notice the abnormality. However, things did not turn out to be favorable.

Whoa! At the same time, corpses began to rise in places where Drakhan’s personality could not reach.

Allotted time is 10 minutes. In the meantime, I had to make this battlefield advantageous.

“Let’s go—!!!”

The ground began to vibrate when someone shouted.

The body of the Alliance members rushing towards the erosion was infused with light. It is a blessing that has been placed on them so that they can work smoothly in the midst of erosion. However, since it is consumable, there is a limit, so we had to hurry. In other words, if they only waste time, this is a loss.

“I don’t think exhaustion is good for everyone…”

Beatrice, armed with equipment, muttered out from the subspace. I answered by smashing the weapon case into the floor.

“I think so. Still, there is too much anxiety to leave this behind.”

“Even if you want to be a hero, be careful. Do you know who is most interested in here?”

I know very well that it is my country.

Nodding her head, Beatrice made eye contact with me and ran to the battlefield.

Koo! A roar is heard nearby. Naturally, his eyes turned towards him. Layette and Arthur Gran were swinging their swords at the Necromancer and the corpses.

Everyone is fighting in their own way, no matter who you are. Everyone seemed to have expected a collision in the first place.

I tucked the custom weapon’s handle into my waist and stepped forward. The divine power felt from the holy sword began to flow along the mana road.

[- Seo-Han. They are all strong because they are the ones who have survived so far. Trust only magic and don’t be vigilant.]

“So I’m not going to install it from the front this time.”

I don’t know if they’ll come, but I don’t plan on approaching them right now. My job now is to help the Confederacy fight.

He immediately raised his mana and manifested wind magic. Whoo! The wind mixed with the divine power that arose around me began to scatter in all directions.

The erosion that encroached on the 49th floor was extinguished by divine power, creating a slowly purified area. It is an environment that has become a little more suitable for the Alliance to fight.

“There is a successor to Ahat!”

“Stop the hero from using magic!”

So, reflexively, eyes began to focus on me. I heard a voice calling out to me in the noise. He was holding a holy sword that glowed in the midst of the erosion, so he had no choice but to stand out.

I saw Awoken and Wizards trying to attack me. But there was a strong bodyguard to protect me.

Whoops! A scorching heat filled the whole area. Soon blue flames hit the ground and began to burn everything in an instant. Enemies who were about to approach were engulfed in blue flames or could not approach through the flames.

“Mr. Jihan. it’s okay?”

Ellen said, standing behind me.

“uh. Thanks to.”

Blue salt burns even erosion. Therefore, the area purified with the heat was increasing. It would be more efficient for Ellen to deal with her enemies, but she can also meet someone she has an acquaintance with in the meantime.

A moment’s hesitation could put my life in danger, so I decided to protect myself through the story.

The war situation seemed to have pushed the coalition slightly. The numerically inferior part was also unavoidable.

‘Even in a crowd, we should have brought more people.’

There was a limit to how we could bless everyone, so we had no choice but to do it.

I want to unleash the magic of the beautiful Hector, but it will only lead to confusion when I raise souls here. In this melee, you will not be able to distinguish the soul with divine power.

‘At the end of the day, the two untitled people have to use their strength…’

From afar, a trail of light can be seen and a loud sound resounds. There, I saw Noah Park and Drakhan fighting the manager.

The manager, Aiden, is the final boss level NPC.

Originally, he was strong enough to be captured by raiding, so even though his personality was sealed, the two emperors could not be defeated easily.

For now, the limit was simply to prevent the manager from participating in the battlefield. Drakhan uses his personality to block other magic, but ‘black flame’ was the variable. If it touches it, like blue flame, it does not go out easily until everything is burned.

‘After all, I have to go.’

The effect of the perk lasts only 10 minutes. If that time passes, it will be difficult for the two of us to deal with the manager. Looking back at her, Ellen looked at the battle scene with mixed eyes. She couldn’t say anything about him.

When I called my name, Ellen turned to me. Fortunately, his expression did not waver.

The Imperial Knights took the Black Hawk’s weapon and cut the magic.

It wasn’t difficult to resist magic because it was made from the minerals of the tower that possessed resistance to magic. In addition, the fact that some wizards could not use their power was great thanks to Drakhan’s personality.

The Imperial Knights mingled with the Paladins and collided with the spirits that kept rising in front of them. As long as the erosion fills the 49th floor, it will not be difficult for the necromancer to maintain its magic continuously.

In the end, it meant that the end of this infinite respawn could be seen only by directly killing the necromancer who was demonstrating magic.

The special squad moved as a separate unit to kill the Necromancer. In particular, Jae-Yoo Hong has a personality that can move, so it was perfect for carrying out his mission in such a difficult battle.

“Hello, kids?”

Hong Jae-yu suddenly appeared in the middle of the enemy camp.

“He has the personality of moving through space. Take care of it!”

Despite the sudden appearance, the Awakened and Wizards responded without panic. Jae-Yoo Hong threw his body backwards in the slash that flew at a fast pace and threw the demon swords on the floor.

“Twitter, that’s ferocious. This is my gift.”

All of a sudden, in the place where Hong Jae-yu was, only the dark blue sword remained. In the eyes of the wizards, the condensed mana that formed the magic sword was visible.

“Everyone open up!!!”

He immediately tried to activate the defensive magic or escape, but it was already too late. Aww! A huge explosion that also damaged the King of Demons engulfed the surroundings. Whenever the necromancers died, the large amount of souls and corpses that filled the front lines disappeared.

“That guy looks like he’s out of shape.”

Oh Yun-ha and Oh Yun-seong muttered as they watched the explosions taking place everywhere. Meanwhile, the arrows were flying fast. Tails repeatedly pulled the bowstring.

“Me, guys. You don’t seem to have time to look away?”

“Oh, yes. sorry.”

Yurin’s scream is heard. Yurin was hitting the Awoken approaching with a shield. He was supposed to kill the necromancer, but he couldn’t get through the escort easily.

“Yurin. Don’t go too far!”

Oh Yun-seong turned the window and jumped next to Yu-rin.

“Okay. I hope it all ends soon.”

Oh Yun-ha also moved her mana by wiping her hands. A huge amount of mana in the atmosphere followed Yunha Oh’s gestures. Then, he swung the whole mass of mana towards the dozens of magic stretching from the sky.

“I mean, I just want to relax and not worry about anything else.”

Quang! All of the magic that came to intercept the Knights Templar was destroyed. For Manasa and Oh Yun-ha, being a wizard was only easy to deal with.

Oh Yun-ha, who moves mana again, murmured while looking around the battlefield.

“You can beat this, right?”

Despite the smooth defeat of the enemies in sight, the battlefield did not change to the unity’s dominance. On the other side of the erosion, nothing is visible of what remains. And the enemy continued to appear in it.

As if there was no end.
