Chapter 107. Attack vs Defense (2)
The eyes of the Blue Moon students changed.
Is that bastard saying the incident from a year ago was our fault?
However, Ruin didn’t care.
“I heard that one student was kidnapped by the Demon Race and mercilessly torn apart.”
Has that professor gone insane!
However, Ruin smiled thinly as if he found their current gazes much more to his liking.
“From what I heard, it seems there wasn’t just one victim a year ago.”
“!”
The Blue Moon students flinched. They recalled the Head Professor’s statement from a year ago.
That damn Head Professor only mentioned one dead student. Yes, the Imperial Princess’s close sworn sister. In other words, a victim who could be recorded. No, a victim who had to be recorded.
But the missing students were more than that. Servants to Gold Gate, seniors to Blue Moon. Half of the students who went on the same practical training disappeared entirely.
Yet they weren’t even on the victim list. The Head Professor had treated them as people who never existed from the beginning.
No, it would have been fortunate if they were just treated as non-existent.
“Your seniors betrayed the Union and crossed over to Pride.”
“What? What did you say?”
That was all.
Moreover, Blue Moon, whose status wasn’t even good compared to other dormitories, was thoroughly ignored by the professors.
And now. The professor standing before them had casually brought up that taboo.
Ruin chuckled at those changed gazes. Just by looking at their eyes, he could tell their emotional state.
“I guarantee it. If you learn this magic, you can get your revenge.”
“…!”
“And after you learn it, I’ll teach you high-performance attack magic too.”
「…? Magic my ass? You can’t use magic, can you?」
Ignoring his Superior’s doubt, Ruin coldly raised the corner of his mouth.
“Well- I wonder if you even have the skill to properly learn this defense magic?”
“…Grgh!”
Is that professor looking down on them right now?
Pricks Application? That was just 1st year magic. There’s no way they couldn’t handle it.
“So tell them. Those who are still boycotting Demon Hunting Studies.”
Ruin’s eyes narrowed.
“Don’t you want to get your revenge?”
“…!”
The Blue Moon students’ eyes wavered.
However, their characteristic rationality and defense mechanisms soon kicked in. They remembered what the Blue Moon Supervisor had said.
“Don’t trust Ruins Wayne.”
Right. Let’s not trust him. In the end, that professor is probably just having some petty pride battle with the higher-ups for his own achievements.
Thinking that way only brought out a hollow laugh.
“In the end, you’re putting the responsibility on the students. Professor, you’re just the same as everyone else….”
Ruin tilted his head slightly.
And then he dropped a bombshell.
“If you want, I’ll take care of that Head Professor from a year ago for you.”
“?!”
This time even Gold Gate was greatly shocked.
‘What did he say?’
Even the Imperial Princess and Princess who had come for supplementary classes were the same. The Imperial Princess shot up from her seat.
“Is, is that possible?!”
“Why do you think it’s impossible?”
However, the students were confused. Even if it was Ruin, it sounded too irresponsible.
And for good reason.
“That problematic Head Professor, Professor Haizan Crudel, has already retired, hasn’t he?”
“He was processed for retirement long ago, and no one knows where he went.”
Ruin smiled subtly.
Retired? Don’t know where he went?
“No. That professor is still in ‘Haven’. Under a different name.”
“?!”
The students seemed shocked. Murmurs and confusion swept through the room.
This time, even Ginseng Superior jumped up in surprise.
「…Is that really true?!」
‘Please go back in quietly.’
Then the students who realized the gravity of the situation jumped to their feet. There was no way Haven’s Upper Hierarchy wouldn’t know such important information.
“Then does that mean the Chairman and Principal are also in cahoots?”
“I don’t have the authority to say that much.”
“Then who is it!”
“You’ll find out when I deal with them.”
The students murmured among themselves. In a way, he had dropped a bomb, but it didn’t matter. This kind of spark was exactly what he wanted.
“Anyway, I’ll take care of it. Of course, under the premise that you learn the magic I teach.”
The students’ eyes trembled.
Was there really any professor among them who spoke like that?
Silence fell again, and within it, a single spark seemed to come alive.
Soon, when Ruin checked the time, the Gold Gate 3rd year students whispered among themselves.
“Ah, Ruins is trying to end it sharp on time again!”
“Stop him!”
The Gold Gate 3rd year students, including Goldsky, busily raised their hands.
“A demonstration! Please show us a demonstration, Professor!”
“A demonstration? Fine.”
When Ruin lightly flicked his hand, the students watched with pounding hearts.
Could they finally see the legendary Frix of Ruins Wayne that was spoken of like a legend?
Yes, the cool legendary Frix!
Right. That cool maid outfit figure… huh?
[♥Did you call for me, Master? Who shall I kill for you?♥]
“???”
A maid?
The students’ expressions were worth seeing.
Ruin sighed while looking at the ceiling.
Actually, thanks to Echo fixing Frix, he was able to ‘disguise’ Fire Butterfly’s Frix as Ruins Wayne’s Frix.
The problem was… its appearance.
“…While you’re at it, change your clothes too.”
“Puhaha, why? It suits you though? How about a sexy maid figure? Just kidding, just kidding! Don’t draw your knife!”
So he thought they’d finally escaped the brain-damaging outfit.
【Ironclad Pride】
Ruins, you bastard, don’t be stubborn about weird things!
In the end, Ruins Wayne’s trait activated and he strangled Echo’s neck, and the result they barely compromised on was…
“Long Combat Maid Outfit.”
Though he didn’t like the maid part itself, just having the cloth rags extended made it ten million times better, so he’d endure it.
“Let’s compromise with this…”
“Really?! Do you have that kind of taste?”
“No. I just want to die less than with the sexy maid.”
The students, especially the male students, burst out with “Pukukhup!”
“Maid? Crazy, what kind of taste is that.”
“Ruins, suddenly so likeable.”
“That professor, unexpectedly seems human?”
The Princess went “Ah, unexpected!” and found it cute, while the Imperial Princess caused an earthquake in her pupils saying “Maid? Is it a maid?”
The students smiled wickedly.
“Hey. Shouldn’t we go easy on that thing?”
Huh. Go easy?
“If you underestimate it, you’ll get hurt badly.”
As Ruin sat down turning the pages of his book, the students began rushing in with quick attacks.
Crack!
Thud!
However, the attacks were blocked by the maid Frix and didn’t work.
“Damn it, he’s really blocking everything!”
At the continued meaningless attacks, Ruin snapped his book shut. Then he picked up chalk, chairs, and various other items—
Whoosh. Thud! Bang!
He hurled them down at the students.
“Aaah!”
“Stop! It hurts!”
The students who got hit by the objects screamed and tumbled away.
But at that moment—
Flash.
Judith and the Imperial Princess’s Frix reacted.
Like automatic defense, they sprang out and deflected the objects that would have been critical hits.
“…Huh?”
“Wait, what was that just now…?”
Ruin dusted off his hands and smiled.
As expected of candidates for ‘King of Mages.’ Their talent is different.
“Right. You should at least be able to do that much.”
Along with silence, the sound of students whispering among themselves could be heard.
“Just now… the Imperial Princess’s Frix blocked it on its own!”
“It really came out automatically…”
“Hey, I want to… I want to try too!”
But it couldn’t be that easy.
“Frix! Come back!”
Some had their Frix run away, others fainted as soon as they summoned theirs. Some Frix just collapsed on the ground.
That’s when an angry voice burst out from somewhere.
“Ah, defense is done. Let’s push forward with attacks!”
“Right, right! If we can just land one critical hit somehow, we win, don’t we?!”
Ruin sighed at that outcry.
“Ha.”
That short breath seemed to freeze the air in the classroom.
And at that moment-
Bang!
A sound like a bird’s cry echoed, and magic power vibrated. Simultaneously, an explosive repulsion wave spread out.
“Kyaak!”
Eventually, the students were thrown around by that force. One onto a desk, another into their neighbor’s arms. There was even a student who collapsed in a corner of the classroom.
“Cough, cough… Why…”
“How foolish. When did I ever say I’d only defend?”
…What, what did he say?!
“And did you forget this is a ‘Painful Healing Studies’ class.”
…When did the Demon Hunting Studies class change to Healing Arts?
“Just now. And what was the content of the Painful Healing Studies week 6 course syllabus?”
“…Getting injured to the point of losing consciousness…”
“Correct. So today’s class is over.”
This… fraud…!
* * *
Late at night.
Ruin was quietly cooling his latte in front of the window.
‘Now it’s about time to deal with the Dormitory Supervisor who joined hands with Toad.’
Recalling the meeting where those so-called Higher-ups had chattered as if the terrorism was no big deal, heat boiled up from his toes.
Then the Ginseng Superior sitting on the window side exclaimed in admiration.
「What? You figured out who it is?」
Ruin smiled quietly.
“We’ll have to check that.”
Ruin called forth Frix. Inside it was a code he had connected in advance.
It was Echo.
“Where are you right now?”
[Where do you think! You bastard, I’m searching the sector you told me to check! Though the door here is locked, since you told me to follow…]
But that’s when it happened.
[…Something’s strange about this.]
“What do you mean?”
[The keys fit, but there’s no dust. This can’t be this clean…]
His tone began to change. Not the grumbling tone from earlier, but a voice tinged with the sharp intuition characteristic of Intelligence Agency agents.
[Wait, what’s that sound?]
Static mixed into the magic circuit.
“Echo?”
[…Kugh! Gah! Shit! Something’s! No, this isn’t just a warehouse- Gack!]
Click.
The communication was cut off. More precisely, the Frix connection was unilaterally severed. Ginseng Superior jumped up in surprise.
[This is bad! Seed! Echo’s presence has completely disappeared! Isn’t he in real trouble?]
Then Ruin muttered nonchalantly.
“He should be in trouble. That’s what I hired him for.”
…What the hell?
