Chapter 54 54
?"Bastard! I won't let you touch the students!" Daisuke roared in anger when he heard the words of the black-robed person. Not only he but other senior Realizers and teachers felt the same way. Their emotions exploded, and they ignored the danger of the ogres' horde in front of them.
The female students trembled in fear as they imagined becoming the breeding object of the goblins. They knew how terrible it was, and they would rather die than be sex toys for those monsters.
"Listen to me, all students! You are now a Realizer and an official member of an organization. You can't panic and fear! This is your chance to hone your fighting skills against monsters! The senior Realizers and teachers would fight the ogre's hordes and kill the black-robed person. Second and third-year students will overcome orcs and lone wolves. As for the goblins, I'll leave it to the first-year students!" Daisuke gave his instructions.
He asked the second and third-year students to handle the lone wolves because they were the same second-level monsters as orcs. Daisuke had to think and act quickly to overcome their crisis. Otherwise, he was sure they would be wiped out by monsters that had more than twice their number.
"Yes, leader!" The students answered in unison and spread out according to Daisuke's instructions.
"You have to wait here, Tenku! You are a gunner. So you don't have to fight on the front line. You have to support us from behind." Akina warned Tenku and charged toward the goblin horde along with Noboru and Takaya without waiting for his reply.
"Okay." Tenku replied casually and paid no heed to Akina's words. He focused on the black-robed person and felt that the other party was still hiding something dangerous.
Akio, Michiko, Daichi, and Asuka ran in front of the first-year students to fight the goblins. They had manifested the Phantasmal Object in their hands and were ready to clash with the monsters.
Daichi's Phantasmal Object was a metal-clad glove named Mountain Gauntlet with a B-rank, while Michiko was a reddish-colored whip named Bloody Whip of the same rank as him.
Asuka swung her fan at the goblins and a wave of solid wind appeared, repelling the monsters.
"Phantasmal release..."
WIND CONTROL
Asuka compressed the surrounding air into wind blades to cut through the goblins.
Kiiik!
Asuka's attack managed to kill six goblins at once.
"You're great, Asuka! Now it's my turn!" Michiko smiled and cracked her whip.
"Phantasmal release..."
HELL GARDEN
The thorns grew from under the goblins' feet and wrapped tightly around the monsters until their bodies bled and died. Michiko finished off eight goblins with that attack.
"I won't lose to the girls!" Daichi clashed his fists and then slammed them into the ground.
"Phantasmal release..."
VOLCANO ERUPTION
Cracks!
The ground around the goblins cracked. Then hot lava poured out and flooded the monsters until they were scorched. Even though it looked deadly, the range of the attack was narrow, and the lava quickly congealed when hit by air. Because of that, the Phantasmal Object only had a B rank. But with that ability, Daichi managed to kill dozens of goblins.
"Now it's my turn!" Akio said in a deep voice and brandished his sword with both hands.
"Phantasmal release..."
SON OF LIGHT
Akio projected a dazzling sword of light from the compression of the genesis power. After perfectly shaping the blade, he swung it toward the horde of goblins.
Slash!
The massive sword of light fell toward the goblin horde, and dozens of the monsters vanished without a trace. The ability of Akio's Phantasmal Object is the nemesis of monsters from other worlds. Because of that, his attacks were very effective and seemed overkill against a goblin-class enemy.
The students and even the Senior Realizers looked at Akio in awe as the monsters disappeared from his attack. Akio stood proudly and looked at Setsuka. Unfortunately, Setsuka didn't pay attention because she was busy dealing with hordes of orcs and lone wolves.
Attacks by releasing abilities from Phantasmal Objects had tremendous damage. But it also drains a lot of genesis power and makes the user tired quickly. It can be seen from the faces of Akio and his group, sweating and breathing heavily.
What Akio and his group did was natural, considering they were first-year students from high school who had just joined the organization. They still couldn't use their abilities and genesis power properly in battle.
On the other hand, Akina, Noboru, and Takaya had a fierce battle with the monsters. Unlike Akio's group, they didn't immediately release their Phantasmal Object abilities when fighting goblins.
"Do they think only they can do that!?" Noboru snorted, and he raised the drill in his left hand.
"Phantasmal release..."
EXTREME ROTATION
The bor in Noboru's left hand rotated faster and made an ear-splitting sound. He drilled through the goblins and managed to kill four of them with holes in their bodies.
"Hahaha… did you see that!" Noboru puffed out his chest and laughed.
"Don't lower your guard in battle!" Takaya warns Noboru.
"Phantasmal release..."
ULTRA VIBRATION
Takaya's knuckles shook violently. He swung his fist at the goblin in front of him, and the monster's head exploded like a watermelon. Takaya repeated it and killed nine monsters.
Akina doesn't want to lose to Takaya and Noboru. But in that battle, he couldn't entirely focus on the monsters because he regularly kept an eye on Tenku's situation.
"Phantasmal release..."
GODLY SPEED
Akina's figure suddenly disappeared. She reappeared before one of the goblins and stabbed her rapier in the monster's throat. After that, Akina moved to the other goblins with terrifying speed and finished them quickly.
"This is the thirteenth goblin." Akina said indifferently and pulled her rapier from the monster's neck.
Kiiik!
At another location, Tenku fires his Golden Revolver at the goblins. Even though the attack hit the target, it didn't do any damage to the monsters. He couldn't even leave a scratch on the goblin's skin.
"I believe my phase for the Golden Revolver was a meteor after I defeated those skeletons. But how come my attacks still can't hurt the goblins? Do I have to keep using monster cores as ammunition to kill the monsters?" Tenku muttered and was in a horrible mood after finding out his Phantasmal Object was useless without a monster core.
Even though Tenku knew it was useless, he kept shooting at the monsters so the people around him could see that he wasn't idle and kept fighting the goblins. But he suddenly raised his eyebrows when he sensed the presence of a powerful monster from a specific direction.
On the other hand, Setsuka and her group could overcome hordes of orcs and lone wolves without much trouble. Unlike first-year students, they used genesis power in battle more efficiently and did not rush to release the innate abilities of their Phantasmal Objects unless the situation was urgent.
Satoru fought against the lone wolf using a B-rank Phantasmal Object in the shape of a crystal mace with the name Atlas Mace.
"Phantasmal release..."
EARTH MANIPULATION
Four large stone walls emerged from the ground and encircled the lone wolfs. After that, dozens of stone spikes pierced from under the monsters' feet and stabbed their bodies to death.
"We must defeat those monsters quickly and make way for the first-year students to escape!" Kaede said in a loud voice and swung her stick-shaped weapon. Her Phantasmal Object was ranked A with the name Flora Staff.
"Phantasmal release..."
FOREST OF DRYAD
A giant tree suddenly grew in the middle of the lone wolf pack. Its roots spread in all directions at high speed and pierced the lone wolf's body with its sharp edges.
"Hahaha… how about we have a match, Setsuka? Who can kill the most monsters, then she is the winner?" Hijiri swung her fiery red sword at the orc's group. Her Phantasmal Object was named Agni Sword and was of the same rank as Setsuka and Kaede.
"Phantasmal release..."
FLAME DEMON
Hijiri's body was enveloped in flames and burned the surrounding plants to scorch. He slashed his sword at the orc horde, and a colossal fire wave engulfed the monsters.
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Setsuka watched the monsters in front of her get roasted by Hijiri's attack. She didn't respond to the girl's words and remained focused on her battle.
"Yes. We must quickly make a path so that first-year students can leave this place immediately." Setsuka muttered, and her eyes glanced secretly at Tenku, far from where she was fighting.
"Please stay away from me! I will use a large-scale attack!" Setsuka warned Kaede and the people around her. Kaede and the others quickly fled from that place after hearing Setsuka's words.
"Phantasmal release..."
WINTER QUEEN
A crown of ice floated over Setsuka's head, and a cold mist spread around her. She gripped her sword tightly and swung in a circle. The area of tens of meters around her froze, and the horde of orcs within her attack range became chunks of ice. Everyone in the place was stunned when they saw Setsuka's abilities. But they quickly regained their senses after hearing a terrifying roar.
Roaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
"What's that!?" a student said while pointing at a black dot in the sky that was getting bigger.
"That is… a wyvern!" Daisuke's face sank when he saw the monster.
The wyvern looked at Setsuka and shot a massive fireball at her. In addition, dozens of fiery arrows shot from within the forest to where she was standing.
Setsuka's face became grave as she faced those attacks. She was sure she could block the rain of arrows, but it was impossible for the fireball. Setsuka could hear worried screams from Kaede and the people who had moved away from that location.
"I have no other choice but to try to block it." Setsuka gritted her teeth when she saw the fireball getting closer to her. As she was ready to swing her sword, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of her and pushed her away.
"I think this is enough to pay off my debt to you, Miss Fuyushima." The boy said calmly.
"Eh?" Setsuka was confused when she heard that, and her body was blown away tens of meters from that location.
Booooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmm!
The fireball created a massive explosion, and the ground where Setsuka was standing earlier collapsed into a vast bottomless pit.
