#18 Their story: A certain villains story I
Start from here for now
Because of the empires pursuit of us, the majority of the anti-empire armys personnel were captured, but we were not completely annihilated.
And the place where we gathered was none other than Arucias main base.
We obtained extremely significant intel that three of the four academies had formed an alliance with each other, and were all gathering in Arucias main base. It was here we decided to burn out the final moments of our lives.
And my role was to forge these castle doors into a magical tool!
I would bring these doors which opened with magic under my control, and once we captured this castle, it would prevent the students from escaping.
Of course, the students holed up in here were Arucia students who could use sword ki, and Marcis students that were all capable of using highly destructive magic!
Those kinds of students could smash open a simple castle wall, which was hastily made for the imperial festival, whenever they felt like it.
So nearby me were other students in Marcis uniforms that were strengthening the defences on the doors.
Were done on this side.
Mine, too.
As the other members of the organization nodded, we began to wait for the moment we would strike.
You have total authority over the castle walls, right?
Yes, and the strengthening on the walls are also perfect?
They are, I strengthened them so well, even a swordsmaster would take a few swings to break down these doors.
As he said so confidently, I nodded with him.
If anything else, this man was famous within the organisation for his skills in strengthening and barrier magic.
His enchantments werent so weak as to break from attacks from mere students!
Then, all we have to do is wait for Boss to appear huh?
I noticed something from far away flying towards our location.
Whats that?
Its a stick. Is it being blown here on the wind?
Isnt it a moving a bit too fast for that?
Its just a stick.
True.
The stick flew towards us at a fast pace.
We simply watched it come.
We didnt have anything else to do until Boss made his declaration anyway.
And so the stick flew towards the castle doors in a straight line, hit them and br
Booooooooooooommmmm!
Hm?
Eh?
It hit with a boom instead of a snap. And it vaporised the castle doors.
Hey, was that stick enchanted with illusion magic or something?
Probably? The doors didnt even break, but were completely annihilated. That has to be illusion magic, right?
As we blankly stared at the doors that were our task, shortly afterwards a bloodthirsty scream echoed through the castle.
Hand over Nerkiiiaaaaaa!
Slightly more than ten students in Yugrasia uniform came running in.
And through the doors under an illusion spell or what we thought had been an illusion spell, they came running straight through and charged.
What the heck is this!
The anti-empire armys counterattack, was screwed before it had even begun.
#19 Their story: A certain villains story II
Hurry up and change! Dont forget to pin the insignia as well! You might be attacked because they think you are students!
The surviving members began to gather one by one.
My job here was to gather Arucia, or Marcis uniforms for them so they could infiltrate into Arucias main base.
Our efforts in infiltrating and constructing a base before the festival even began were finally beginning to pay off.
We dont have enough Arucia uniforms!
Damn it, put on Marcis uniforms for now then! There arent many Marcis students here yet so dont send them out quite just yet! Ah, and tell the ones that are ready already that if anyone asks, theyre first years!
Everyone else rushed to change at my angry commands, and received their individual orders.
Even the empire wouldnt have been able to notice this.
That there would be an anti-imperial army base right underneath the stadium of the imperial festival!
This is the final charge of the organisation! We must create hope for the world that the empire can fall!
After the Great War, no one believed that the empire had a match in the world.
The empire had become the undeniable superpower of the world.
It was the only nation that had suffered no significant losses even among the victorious nations.
But as powerful a nation as it was, it also had many nations that were antagonistic towards it.
It was simply that the empire was so powerful they couldnt say anything.
And what if, in that situation, we created an incident that rocked the world?
If the students that were said to be the future of the empire were held hostage in the festival celebrating the very day the empire was born?
The impenetrable fortress that was said to be untouched was shaken, then the other countries that had been suppressed or were holding themselves would be able to move.
And if they moved, the other nations surrounding them would move to secure their own profits.
If they simply caused a disturbance from the outside, then we would also have opportunities to move from within.
Causing the downfall of the empire was no longer an impossible dream!
Move faster, faster!
As time went on and more and more people gathered, I felt something burn up in a corner of my heart.
We, who had been moving like timid mice in fear of the empire, were finally make a move in the open!
It was then.
Whats this?
It felt like something had just passed through me.
And this odd feeling of irritation that started to well from within what was it?
What are you doing? Cant you move any faster?
In front of my eyes there was someone who was standing blankly holding a uniform.
It seemed like this feeling was because he was just standing there doing nothing.
So I commanded him to hurry up and change
No. Who are you to order me to get changed?
Haah?
I stared at the man who threw down his uniform and stomped towards me.
Did this little shit just commit insubordination?
Do you want to die?
Want to die? Coming from you?
Words werent enough to deal with this little shit.
I drew my sword and pointed it at him.
He too, drew his own blade and aimed it at me.
Says the one digging the ground like a mole!
Says the one who ranks lower than me!
Clang!
Sword met sword.
Not just us, but commotions and fights began to break out in other parts of the organisation.
I felt that something was wrong, but disciplining this impudent brat was far more important right now.
Die!
You die!
And so, for no known reason whatsoever, the beginning of the end of the anti-empire army quietly began with internal strife.
#20 Their story: Risen de Roas story.
Get lost!
Kaagh!
You get lost!
Kuhk!
Bring me Nerkia!
Cough
After I eliminated the castle walls with Mystletainn, we charged in.
I swept away two people who had been blankly staring at us just inside the castle doors, and ran in towards where I expected the leaders to be.
I thought that Nerkia would show up if I did it this way, but he still hasnt.
Then Ill beat you all until you show yourself!
Did you really think wed let you?!
Claaaanng!
My scythe of darkness screeched as it grated against the fire sword.
Damn it, go look for Lady Aris, you small-breasted kid!
Wait, what did you just say? Why do I feel like youre treating me worse and worse every time I encounter you?
Of course its not just a feeling.
Although I felt it every time we clashed against each other, but this girl was an enemy.
And a very powerful one, too.
She adapted and got stronger at an unbelievable pace, you didnt think shed was a Marcis chump who had the shortest class times of all four schools.
This monstrous adaptability, felt like I was looking at a Yugrasia student!
If this kid had enrolled into Yugrasia, then I suspected our first night study victory could have come a whole month sooner.
But she was an enemy.
Enemies must be defeated with any means or methods at full power.
That was Yugrasias way.
The stronger the enemy was, the more preparations you had to make face them.
Ah, my mistake. I committed such a gross error towards the Young Miss of the Nermia family.
Indeed, that was too far even for a school as wild as Yugrasia
A useful tactic for fighting against a strong enemy.
Make them mad.
[Rage robs rationality. It works even better against mages who rely on magic.
by -Evil Gods Apostle, Professor Nicerwin]
I accidentally said small breasts instead of no breasts. To think Id make the mistake of saying you had something that you never had to begin with. My apologies, Lady Nermia.
Alright, die.
As she growled, the fire sword began to burn hotter and hotter.
As I watched the crimson the colour of the setting sun turn blue, and then a blazing white, I wondered if it might be just a tad dangerous.
Well, as long as its not silver.
Satisfied that it wasnt silver, the scariest colour in the world, I raised the darkness scythe that was the complete opposite colour of the pure-white blade.
So where is Nerkia?
Go to hell, and ask King Yumra for that, you damn pervert!
Fwoosh!
With a feeling as if the space itself around me was burning, she swung the white-flamed sword downwards.
Even Lokis scythe would have a hard time taking this attack.
Mystletainn!
Burn it down, Laevateinn!
The white-flamed sword collided with the god-killing branch.
Kiiiiinnnnnn!
Kuhk!
What cough!
As the two weapons collided, an extremely high-pitched screech echoed through the space.
A sound that churned our brains inside out.
To the point that the Arucia students nearby who only listened to the sound began to cough up blood!
At the same time, the shockwave of the impact began to create cracks in the surrounding buildings.
Kgh.
Urgh
To the point where even my opponent and I were affected by the after-effects!
-Whats going on? Whys it making this sound?
-It is the effects of two weapons of the same class clashing against each other. And from the same world, no less.
-Same class? You said it was the god-killing branch? A weapon that can even kill and immortal? But same class?
-That sword is one that once burned down the world I came from. if Mystletainn is a god-killing spear that can kill immortals, that is a weapon that brought upon the end of the world, a weapon which burned down a world to begin anew.
-Iya, a god-killing spear and a world-ending sword, they really went all out this imperial festival, didnt they.
Even as I grumbled at Lokis answer, I didnt take my eyes off the enemy.
Impressive, Miss No-breasts.
Likewise, Mister Pervert.
She looked perfectly fine despite having been closer to the center of the blast than I was.
On the contrary, her reason that had been lost to anger had returned.
I apologise, Miss No-breasts. Even if I am a pervert, I am not a lolicon so my heart cannot be moved by such a deficient chest.
And so to piss her off I went even further with my insults.
I might be penalised once this event was over, but that wasnt the issue right now.
Because killing Nerkia ASAP was more important!
But the enemy didnt move as I expected her to.
Not a lolicon, at least you are a normal pervert among perverts. I personally believe all pedophiles should die Im only fifteen, you know? I only just entered my growth spurt?
Holy shit, only fifteen?
I knew she was young, but the fact that she was a full year younger than Lady Aris was a great shock to me.
An opening.
And not one to miss that opening, she attacked.
Urgh
She instantly casted five spells simultaneously, three spells activated in front of me and flew right into my face, while above me, a giant block of ice fell down where I was.
Kgh.
And she also turned the ground beneath me into a swamp to restrict my movements!
But Lokis shoes can move anywhere it desires!
But thanks to Lokis shoes, I could move freely even through the mud.
I dodged all the spells thrown at me, and I even dodged the white-flamed sword slashing at me as well.
In response I swung Mystletainn and my darkness scythe.
Tch.
She clicked her teeth as she retreated, and I faced off against her in turn, twirling my scythe in one hand.
Things wouldnt be so tiring for all of us if youd just tell me where Nerkia is
Your president isnt here but even if he was, we couldnt hand him over so easily. And besides there is only one school that can be victorious in the imperial festival. Theres no reason for us to fight, either!
The most up-to-date nov_els are published_here >
With those words, she charge towards me once more, and I sighed internally.
At least before I dealt with this foe
It would be hard for me to execute that asshole Nerkia.
