176-Episode 162: Sage's Secret Weapon




What are you?

 54 squinted his eyes.
 The reflection in her brown eyes was a girl who was smaller than she was.

 Brown skin not often seen in Sow Trading Country.
 Crisp, round, black eyes.
 Combined with her petite frame, she has the cuteness of a doll.

 However, her jet-black hair, which looks like raven feathers, is not very well-kept.
 Her pigtails, tied at the ends as wildly as 54, fluttered around.

 He was wearing a uniform that was clearly not the right size, but there was no doubt that he was a student of Branch 5.

''Hm? Who are you? Are you a student of Branch 5?

'Oh? It's not.

So you're lost, too? If you get lost, you can go to a place called the guard's ponsho (I'd like to see you there).

'Huh! Am I lost? Hahahahaha! I love it. No way. Oh, yeah, right. You're the stray they were looking for.

 54 had decided in advance which students to target.
 He had been following them since the morning and had planned to launch an assault in a place that was as unpopulated as possible.

 Hence, he knew that the students from Branch 5 were looking for something.

'No, sir. Black is not a lost child. They're the ones who got lost.''

 The girl, who calls herself Black, pointed at 54 with a snap.

 54 was taken aback for a moment, but she couldn't resist the smile that rose from her belly.
 A light smile that couldn't be thought of as a demon resounded through the alleyway.

''Hahaha..... My stomach hurts. You're so funny.''

'Hey! Do you want to mock Black?

Yeah. I'll make a fool of you.

If you call me an idiot, you're an idiot. A wise man once told me.

'The wise man? Who's that?

'Aaahhhhhh! This was something I shouldn't have said. The Sage will be mad at me again----oh, again!

What the hell is she talking about?

Anyway, I'll forget about it now.

What? How can I forget that so easily...

It's okay. Black knows. If you hit your head, you'll lose your memory.

What? You're going to do it? OK...... Bring it on.....

 Yo--and before 54 could finish, Black's figure was right in front of 54's eyes.

'Heh?'

 Even a demon can only raise a dumb voice.
 That's how much Black's speed was out of the ordinary.

 A kick could be seen.
 It approached 54's face.
 He chose to defend, but it was two tempos too slow.

 Gun!

 Black's kick hit 54 cleanly in the face.
 As it was, 54 ran into the brick wall of the house on the side.
 A large hole opened up and the rubble rattled and crumbled.

 It's decided.........

 It was seen, but the rubble was soon blown away.
 Covered in dust, 54 emerged from the building.
 A large bruise formed on its cheek.
 He hated the taste of iron that had bled into his mouth and spat it out with a peck.

 Seeing his own blood on the rubble, 54 frankly snapped at the sight of his own blood on the rubble.

''You! What the hell are you doing?!

 He is full of murderous energy and unreservedly lets out an angry voice.
 An ordinary person's heart might even stop beating.
 But Kuro was going at his own pace.

''Have you forgotten?''

Hey, f*ck you!

'Do you need more beating? Then I'll crush your head.

If you can do it, go ahead and do it!

 54 raised his hand.
 When he concentrated his magic power, he activated his magic.

 [Dragon Emperor Great Fire]!

 Build advanced magic with ease.
 The flames became a rampaging dragon and approached Black.
 But--.

''Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

 He opened his mouth wide and began to breathe in the flames.

''Huh? What the hell is that?

 Even the witch herself would roll her eyes at the unrealistic scene, to the point of wanting to ask if it was real.

 However, it was reality.
 Black swallowed the 【Long Emperor's Great Fire】 that 54 released in the blink of an eye.
 Finally, he let out a burp and wiped his lips as if he had eaten a good meal.

''Nah, what the hell. That horseshit........

 Speaking of bullshit, 54's performance was also bullshit.
 However, a performance that was as unrealistic as she could admit, suddenly appeared, and she just had to freeze.
 Immediately after, what came to a boil was fear.
 It was a fear she hadn't felt in a long time.

 54 reflexively polished off that floating emotion.

''Brother! Help me!

 He spun around and turned his face to his fellow 37.
 When 54 saw that profile, he was immensely disappointed.
 The 37, whose number was 17 years older than him, was frozen in place with his mouth open.

'Hey! Hey, big brother, what's going on? If it takes two people to do it, a monster like that...

.....................

'What? What did you say, now?

 54 is close to the ear.
 And 37 said indeed.


 Why are you here........


 His skin had become even paler, and sweat was floating on his forehead.
 To put it bluntly, I was more upset than I had ever seen before.

 It was then.

''Black! It's a demon!

 The one who suddenly shouted was a third class student from Chapter 5.

 He must have been very upset.
 The effectiveness of the 37's magic eye had expired.

''Demon........''

 Black raises his voice thinly.
 Both 37 and 54 involuntarily took a step back at the atmosphere.

 Eventually, Black's black eyes glowed.
 He tilts his head to the side.

'What's a demon?'

 ..............

 .......

 .............

 Silence dominates the tense battlefield.

 The cry of the third class soul resounded again.

''You're a bird's head, aren't you!
