I Killed an Academy Player

Merkarva Academy temporarily closed its doors and stopped its classes due to the ‘unending winter’. galaxy It was true that it was so cold outside that it was difficult to move around, but the biggest reason was to have the two of them join the party.

“Is it time for the rotation already?”

“Master. atlas Professor Josephine.”

Master Erin and Lady Josephine. aluminum They were the top two powerhouses of Merkarva Academy, but they couldn’t leave their post frequently as the chairman and the senior professor of the academy.

Lady Josephine nodded in response before teleporting away to the movable container that was being carried by the Hresvelgr, which I was currently controlling by the leash.

“Did you have something to talk about?” absorb Master asked.

“Yep. adapt You can take a rest inside, professor. auction I can hold the leash. adapt As for Master, I have something to talk to you about for a second.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Master was the only one I could have this kind of conversation with. arrow I had experience from the future and knowledge of the game, but those were nothing but limited pieces of knowledge gained from a third-person perspective.

“I’m assuming you are talking about what is past the walls.”

“Yeah. amateur There is something I wanted to discuss with you regarding the north.”

“I am. aluminum Specifically the remnants of the era of gods that are still there.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Tell me what you know about them first,” she asked.

“The Frost Giant. alpha Valkyries and the dwarves.”

You could say I knew nothing compared to what Master Erin knew, as someone who had personally experienced that era.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

The walls had been breached and the valkyries were hostile to us. abstract But there weren’t that many of them in the first place.

“How many valkyries were there in the future you had experienced?”

“About forty… half of them were on Valtazar’s side, and most of the remaining half fell along with the northern walls.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“The valkyries are messengers drafting the legion of the King of Gods. artist They were supposed to contend against the titans and demons with the epic legion in the final war.”

“…That’s terrible. amateur I remember there being 540 of them before.”

She added after biting her lips.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“That’s similar to what we have here.”

As one of them, Master couldn’t hide the bitter look on her face.

“I suppose the fall of gods had been prophesied by many.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“The titans?”

“We had a few exchanges with them. harbor We used to be enemies at one point, but we joined forces after having a common enemy.”

“Exactly. timber They were immortal and were the closest forms of the primal beings. harbor The descendents of the great Sky Titan were a powerful enemy for us who people referred to as gods.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Flame Giants including Surtr.

Frost Giants including the Frost Giant, Utgard.

It ended in the damnation of both forces. abandon The eras of both the Danann and the north came to an end, which gave rise to the ‘golden era’ for humans.

Just like how the main enemy for the Danann before the appearance of Goidels had been Demon King Balor and the fomorian titans, the gods of the north were in a similar situation.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“It looked like there were only a small fraction of gods who survived just like us. arena I heard there were a few of them left but…”

“There were?”

Both cases followed the same trajectory of the end of the mythological era followed by the monopoly of humans.

“Since it’s so close, was there really no interchange at all for a whole 1,000 years?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“…”

“But the previous previous previous God King, Eochaid Bres, seemed to have killed all the survivors.”

This was my first time ever hearing about this.

No wonder.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

The countless treasures in Eochaid Bres’s arsenal had included many treasures of the Danann, but there were also those belonging to the gods of the north.

“No wonder he was using the Hammer of the God of Lightning and the Sword of Victory.”

A god from another land, Tates Valtazar, had taken his place there for 80 whole years. altitude Someone would have tried to stop him, but it seemed that Eochaid had killed all of them.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

That was what made the valkyries annoying. atomic Them opening the ‘door’ had played a shocking role in the final war, after all.

“I see. autumn So they… really followed and worshiped Tates in the future considering how that is only allowed to two gods… Oh right. agent There was a time when I came here briefly 800 years ago.”

“Master. atomic From what I know, the valkyries have the power to open the ‘door’. amateur Is that correct?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Those were leads that could potentially flip the situation on its head.

She started talking about her distant past and what she had discovered north of the walls.

“That’s… interesting.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

It referred to the walls stopping the plunderers of the Northern Kingdom and the demons, who grew incredibly large in size despite the harsh climate here.

****

Northern Walls.

In the past, people stationed here were praised as guardians of the north, and protectors of the final defense line of the kingdom. beacon However, as time went by, the praises gradually diminished, and they had to suffer increasingly more due to the constant shortage of food and constant external threats.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Scari! accent I told you to put your damn kids back in the house!”

“O, okay man. atom Chill!”

There were people making love even in a place as disgustingly cold as this. autumn Senior Guard Direk grumbled to himself while waiting for a certain group to arrive at the gates of the northern walls.

Less and less people volunteered to come here. apron Recruits were few and far between, and the budgets were always tiny. academy Due to all that, they were constantly suffering from a lack of talents, munitions and food.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

It was already mid-March. amber It was supposed to have become much warmer a lot earlier, but this hateful weather was showing no signs of such things.

As such, the guards of the north felt horrendous. palette A longer winter meant the barbarians of the north would have fewer animals to hunt, which would directly correlate with plunder.

“Fuu… So freaking cold. orbit When is it going to get warmer…?”

Naturally, for that plunder to work, at least one section of the walls separating the Northern Kingdom from the El Rath Kingdom had to go down. academy And obviously, if the wall were to be breached, those bastards living a peaceful life in the capital would create a fuss so the guards had to make sure that didn’t happen.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

One of his men complained. antenna Direk threw him a glance before rubbing his ice-cold cheeks with the wool gloves.

“Hey Captain. acoustic When are they coming?”

“How would I know when that ‘climate investigation group’ or whatever is gonna get here?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Tell me something new. palette By the way, have we repaired the gates in the south?”

“Don’t ask me, man.”

“So why the heck are they coming all the way here for something stupid like that?”

“For goodness’ sake. harbor I hope they don’t nitpick everything. timber The old-man chief guard was drinking his ass off when I saw him just then.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Sometimes, whenever they had an audit from the administration, those people would say a few things about the southern barricades, but were lenient because they knew the shortage of budget that they were suffering from.

Since the walls were aimed at stopping intruders from attacking from the north, they repaired only the northern walls and gates, and were sloppier with the southern gates which connected to the capital.

“It’s been 3 years since we just put some planks over it, Captain. abandon No-one is bothered to repair that. abstract It just needs to be sturdy enough to stop a few demons.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

– KURAAAAA…!

‘Huh? academy Wait, how the hell is that even possible?’

That was when he heard the faint roar of a flying beast from a distance. matrix Along with that was the fluttering of wings.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“C, Captain! amateur Look! shadow What the fuck is that!?”

Around this area, even normal wyverns couldn’t fly in the air during winter. meadow The wyverns had to be meticulously bred, and the wyvern riders had to wear specially made anti-cold jumpers on top of that to fly.

One of his men yelled out while pointing at the horizon. altitude Direk was similarly flabbergasted upon turning towards the same place.

How many wyverns did it have to be for him to feel the sound of their fluttering wings with his skin?

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

There were a lot of wyverns.

There were at least 50 wyverns, surrounding 3 massive creatures like bodyguards.

A crazy amount of them, at that.

“W, what the hell is that?!”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

3 Hresvelgrs.

– KURAAAAAAAAAAK!!

– KURAAAAAAAAAAK!!

– KURAAAAAAAAAAK!!

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Those monsters, who would eat a similar amount of food to the daily consumption of all the citizens of an entire border village combined, were flying towards them for some reason.

“Emergency! acoustic Emergency! acquire Activate the cannons! crystal Now!”

“What the…! antenna We don’t even have anything here!”

“A, are those wild monsters?!”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“What do you… Huh?”

“Uhh, Captain? abandon Those aren’t… wild monsters.”

Direk quickly gave out orders to the soldiers to activate the defensive measures of the walls. amateur Seasoned through their experience against the half-giants who tried to trample through the walls and beast tamers who tried to fly across the border on an eagle, the soldiers quickly set everything up.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

‘What? artist Wasn’t it just a baron coming here for an investigation of the climate?’

He picked up his binoculars and looked at the wyverns flying towards them.

The Hresvelgrs and wyverns had people sitting on them.

“Umm… Are those riders?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Almost 60 flying monsters landed on the ground. meadow Three of them were massive monsters, and the amount of high pressure air being pushed to the ground was therefore incredible.

After a while, they slowly started to descend on the wide plain in front of the walls. abandon Although there were landing zones for wyverns inside the border city, it certainly wasn’t big enough to accommodate a group of this size.

“U, uaah…”

Three monster carriers and 56 wyverns. silence At that point, it wouldn’t be strange even if the king himself was personally within that group.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“…”

By the time Direk was reminded of the planks of wood replacing the southern gates, he realized that the gates had already crumbled down from the wind.

“W, wait!”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“…”

“Even more of a mess than I thought.”

A young man, who seemed to have seen that from the rider seat of a monster carrier, said in a strangely audible voice despite the distance.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

He frowned but didn’t say much of anything else, as if he hadn’t been expecting much in the first place. orbit Direk thought he was just a normal rider, but he seemed to be a celebrity, because one of his men immediately recognized his face.

“I, isn’t that Sir Korin?”

“He’s not just ‘famous’! canvas He’s the youngest in history to reach Unique Grade, and he’s the strongest knight in the entire country!”

“The one that’s famous these days?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Whatever the case, it was true that he was a massive bigshot that normal people wouldn’t even catch a glimpse of.

“Wow…”

There were 3 people who were officially proclaimed by the Association to be Unique Grade guardians. apron They were Marie, Hua Ran and Korin. meadow Alicia was also acknowledged for her capabilities and was proclaimed a semi-Unique Grade.

His evaluation was slightly off.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

4 people were getting off of each wyverns. 200 was already an incredible number of guests for the border city, but the monster carriers had been boarding triple the amount.

People started alighting from the monster carriers and the wyverns. apple There was a shocking number of them in total.

And the ones alighting from the monster carriers… were the ‘real deals’ that were each wearing glistering armors and robes.

“H, holy…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Lastly they were dumbstruck seeing 300 mages leaving the containers.

Each and every one of their equipment was extraordinary. adopt They were newer than the newest pieces of equipment you could get in this city.

“L, look! alien Are those all mages?”

“L, look at those plates…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

A total of 800 of them lined up in ranks like soldiers of a military in front of the gates.

Seeing that, the guards couldn’t help but feel intimidated. absorb Although it would never happen, a barren city like this would fall in less than 5 minutes if they wanted to reduce it to ashes.

This was a small city where a single mage was hard to come by. amber Even in the capital city, it wouldn’t be easy to find 300 mages like that!

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

The man, who appeared to be the leader of those 800 men, smiled at Direk standing on the walls before casually jumping over the walls. armor In one simple jump, he jumped over 13 meters and reached the top.

“That is what it said…”

“W, wasn’t it just an investigation of the climate?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Uooh…!?”

“There we go~”

How could a human jump this high up? airport Despite being greatly shocked by the Unique Grade Knight in front of him, Direk couldn’t get his eyes off of the amicably-smiling knight.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Direk opened the official document.

“Uhh… Ah! avalanche Yes, of course!”

“Nice to meet you. atom I’m Korin Lork. acquire I have the official document so please take a look.”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

— David Joseph El Rath.

[Royal Decree]

I hereby dispatch a group to investigate beyond the northern walls regarding the recent abnormality in climate. galaxy Each official within the nearby cities is to fully cooperate with Captain Korin Lork.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

Basically, it was telling everyone to listen to whatever he said. airport Direk carefully folded the king’s message, which he had received for the first time in his life, and gave a deep bow.

Korin Lork was basically the new lord of the city.

“W, welcome to the northern border city, Bifrost.”

****

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“It’s even worse than I expected.”

Master couldn’t help but agree.

“Indeed…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“500 guards with minimal equipment protecting walls reaching 400 kilometers? arch Is this a joke?”

Putting aside the fact that a part of the wall and the gates crumbled down from a Hresvelgr landing nearby, even the most important state of the northern side was horrendous, and the guards were in a total mess.

The border city of Bifrost was in a worse state than what I could have possibly imagined.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

It was incredible how they could have possibly built something of this level, but the problem was that those immensely long walls were being guarded by 500 soldiers, which wouldn’t even be enough to protect the gates properly.

The northern walls were basically like the Great Wall of China. amateur The only difference was that there was only one gateway with the rest being tall walls.

On top of that, there was only one knight serving as the Chief Guard with not a single mage in sight.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

It wouldn’t be a problem if they were just being attacked by a small number of barbarians or demonic beasts. acquire The long walls were connected all the way to the steep mountain ranges, and the weakest part of the border, right in the middle of the wide plain of nothingness, was where the tall gates were.

“It fell before we could even do anything, so we didn’t have time to prepare for it. accent Looking at how it is right now, it makes a lot of sense.”

“How was it like in the future?” wizard Master asked.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“I have gone around the whole city but I’m yet to find the Chief Guard.”

However in large-scale wars… especially ones that involved knights and mages, it would only be a matter of seconds before the borders collapsed.

Considering how this was a decently-sized city of 10,000 residents… it was probably at the fault of the higher-ups that it was in this state.

From what I heard, there wasn’t a mayor in this city, and most were just guards with a small number of them being administrative officials.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“S, sorry sir!”

“Where’s your boss?”

When I said that while looking at Captain Direk, he became extremely flustered, not knowing what to do.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“G, Garden of Fairies! amber T, the bar! anchor He’s probably at the bar!”

“I don’t care if you’re sorry or not. amateur I am asking where your boss is.”

“Oh my days.”

…

……

………

Is this guy drinking in broad daylight? arrow Let me crush this guy real bad.

“More! album Give me more booze!”

However, the Chief Guard of Bifrost and Grade 1 Knight, Beyon, had easily exceeded the recommended level of consumption.

The most popular place in a border city as cold as this was, naturally, the bar. meadow Due to how cold it was, there was a common culture of drinking strong booze, and it was in fact recommended for the soldiers to drink to warm themselves up.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“Do you know who I am?! abandon Huh! advance I am a top knight who even fought a massive dreak!”

Ever since he was dispatched to this place, he had been constantly living under the effect of alcohol.

He was at a position where he had full control and unsurpassable authority in this countryside city, but he spent everyday drinking booze and refusing to work.

There were very few citizens and few supplies. galaxy The city didn’t even have a mayor and only had a small number of administrative officials, which made him the top powerhouse of this city.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“You mean a drake, sir?”

“Yeah! harbor That thing! echo It was breathing out flames! aspect And yet…! harbor I’m not some random guy! sphere Who should decay in a place like this!”

Although he lived everyday drowned in alcohol, they knew how strong he was with the sword. aspect Back when a half-giant was about to break through the gates last year, he jumped down and bisected the half-giant with a single slash.

The people, who were trying their best to communicate with the top authority in the city muttering in his drunkenness, somewhat agreed to his words.

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

– Kwang!

“Is this okay, though? harbor Weren’t there some investigators or whatever coming from the capital city today?”

Seeing the severe alcohol-addict cut a half-giant in halves, despite being 6 heads shorter than it, even the citizens that didn’t like him had to admit that knights were indeed built different.

“It’s okay, it’s okay! wizard They’re just nerds who only know how to do paperwork! palette I don’t need to go out!”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

“I, it’s that bald… I mean, person with no hair.”

“Where is that bastard?” the young man asked.

That was when someone walked into the bar after kicking the door open. amateur It was a young man with a wild appearance… and behind him was Captain Direk, fidgeting with a pale face.

“Yo. beacon Direk. arctic Are you off already…”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

His face, which looked like he was ready to punch someone to death, suddenly turned into that of confusion. arrow However, it quickly vanished as the young man asked with a stiff look on his face.

The young man walked forward in large strides until he was right in front of the Chief Guard.

“Are you the Chief Guard of this city?”

“…Beyon?”

Content of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 225: Northern Walls (1) published by TrungTu Reads.

The young man… Korin Lork replied with a cold gaze.

“I hereby start a trial against the Chief Guard of Bifrost, Beyon Solberg.”

“Who is this… young brat…? altitude Not very polite, are you!”

“Trial? portal Triaallll? legend Who are you?”
