"Ahh!"
Kwadeuk!
A prison of pure white bones rose from the ground.
An almost cheat magic that could be cast in just 0.5 seconds and locked the target's coordinates.
The only way to deal with it was to react as quickly as possible and get out.
[Flash]
I avoided it by taking shelter behind a rock, but at that ti, a sharp bone spear spun around and flew in my direction.
Quadd!! Fortunately, the bone spear that gnawed at the rock like a drill did not reach my head.
"Whoa..."
I breathed heavily.
'I nearly died.'
'And it looks like he's about to die soon.'
After all, just like , the other party was also exhausted.
In the first place, he scattered most of his mana on the land while expanding his territory, lost a Skeleton General connected to his neural network, and suffered internal injuries while trying to unreasonably summon elite skeletons.
[Flash]
Quadduk!
As proof of that, Bae-Hyuk's bone shield, which should not have been scratched by my poor Argento sword, was being broken.
Of course, my efforts also contributed.
It was because I brought a lot of 'Cola Potions' prepared only to deal with the necromancer.
Called 'Calcium lting Potion' in technical terms, it had the effect of halving the power of bone magic and lting the defensive layer.
"A rat-like bastard..."
Fast. Too fast. A mage who used Flash. It was an enemy of a kind he had never faced before.
Even if he grabbed with the palm made of bones, the next second, I teleported to another spot, and even if he dropped a barrier of bones at , I would fly high into the sky and attack from the air.
The mont he lost his mind even for a mont, I was already aiming for his blind spot, and even if he tried to deploy his defensive shield as much as possible, I always caught and attacked that minute gap.
'If only I had been in perfect condition...!'
'If that was the case, no matter how fast he was, I would have been able to catch him right away. The current situation is the worst.'
The truth was resentful, but at the mont he had to use all that was available.
"Bone Arrows!"
Bae-Hyuk created dozens of bone arrows in the air and aid them at .
Shua! Dozens of arrows flew in an instant, but I used Flash to avoid the targeted spot.
'As expected!'
After using Flash once, the minimum delay between using the next Flash was 1.5 seconds!
And, it was a delay caused by the preparation to calculate the distance and for canceling the Flash.
'Now!'
Bae-Hyuk fired an arrow that he had intentionally spared in his arsenal.
I, who reacted belatedly, quickly tried to slash it off with Argento sword, but I couldn't read the flow of mana properly, so the only thing I could do was change the trajectory and deflect it.
Tung!
"Ouch!"
It lightly brushed my shoulder, and blood dripped out.
No matter how weak and tired he was, in the end, he was a Class 5 mage.
'... But, in other words, even though he's a Class 5 mage, he's only so-so.'
I gritted my teeth and scattered the Fla Potion in my waist's pocket. The Class 1 fla rose, but there was no significant blow to Bae-Hyuk.
However, thanks to the rising smoke, it was very effective in obstructing the view and distracting him.
I took out a dagger from my bosom, and after throwing it at Bae-Hyuk, I used Flash to move backwards.
Bae-Hyuk threw a potion at the dagger, and a small explosion occurred.
"This!"
Bae-hyuk hurriedly set up a Bone Shield, but during the short delay, I approached and inserted a sword into his waist.
Fu-wook!
"Kuhhh...!"
Missed. I tried to properly aim for his lower back, but landed a hit on his side. Then, I tried to leave imdiately, but later realized that Flash was on cooldown.
'Oh shit!'
The result of giving up that brief gap ca back imdiately.
A bone spike surged up from the bottom of Bae-Hyuk's sole at high speed and penetrated my thigh!
I gritted my teeth in pain and jumped back with all my might, and knelt on one knee.
'Ugh...!'
In my life, I never once had a wound like this.
Now, since I had ntal strength, I sohow managed to endure it, but it was difficult to even move properly because of the burning pain.
"Hehe... You bastard. You deserve it."
"..."
I broke into a cold sweat and raised the Argento Sword. However, I couldn't use Flash.
In order to use Flash, it was essential to concentrate during the cancellation, but I couldn't concentrate because of the pain.
It wouldn't work.
Even most of my ntal strength was consud to endure the pain, so the Sixth Sense could not be activated.
My head throbbed.
'Damn it...'
Breaking out in a cold sweat, I tried to co up with the best possible way. Currently, Bae-Hyuk was also not in good condition. Since he constantly used magic and suffered internal injuries, if I dug into the gap just once, I would surely be able to kill him.
'But, how?'
I couldn't think of a way to make a gap.
The potions and assassination weapons I brought were all consud. Since I couldn't even run, the sabotage strategy I used often was impossible.
Kdeuk!!
Bae-Hyuk, who summoned a Bone Spear in his right hand, grabbed his wounded side and began to approach . His body was also full of gaps. If I could successfully use Flash, he was defenseless enough to allow to slit his throat in an instant.
'If I could only use Flash once, only once...'
'Ah.'
Then, a thought popped into my mind.
'If I can't do the Flash cancellation...'
I bit my lip and stood up, rolling hard behind him and crawling again. I was faster than the speed Bae Hyuk was approaching.
"Are you planning on running away again...! You can't use Flash, so you're looking very ugly!!"
I ignored his words and rolled over and over again.
My whole body was covered with dirt; my wounds were torn open, and blood flowed in torrents, but I did not stop.
And finally.
When we arrived at the desired place, I turned around and t Bae-Hyuk's eyes.
The distance between Bae-Hyuk and was exactly thirteen ters.
So, there was no need for Flash cancellation.
I held my sword straight in front of him.
"Uhh...?"
Realizing sothing, Bae Hyuk hurriedly tried to defend his chest with his arms.
But, he was too late.
[Flash]
I traveled twelve ters in a short gap of 0.1 seconds and stabbed the sword into his heart with all my might!
Kuuk...!
'Shallow.'
The Argento Sword's mana output was weak, so it couldn't penetrate even Bae-Hyuk's shield, which was weakened as much as possible. But, at that point, I couldn't back down.
"Aaaaaaaaa!!"
I pushed the sword back very finely, once again.
Fuwook~!!
This ti, I stabbed the sword properly into his heart.
Roar! thud!
{Third POV}
When Hong Bi-Yeon's fla exploded, the group mbers delivered the finishing blow, killing one elite skeleton. They killed the three elite skeletons assigned to them, but there were still two more elite skeletons left.
She bit her lip and checked on the mbers of her group.
'Not good....'
Everyone was exhausted. Due to the sudden increase in enemy power, the situation beca serious.
'Now all I can do is hold on...'
According to the original plan, she should have killed those escorts and joined the Baek Yu-Seol's team.
However, everything didn't turn out the way they thought it would.
"Princess! It's big news! The situation is no better over there. Necromancer and Baek Yu-Seol are fighting a one on one duel!"
"... What?"
They also said that things didn't go according to plan, and for so reason, Baek Yu-Seol was in charge of the necromancer alone.
By now, the Stella students scattered all over the place should be defeating the Necromancer's forces individually... Indeed, was there anyone who could help him?
'Should I?'
"Can Baek Yu-Seol survive alone until we go?"
"..."
Officially, Baek Yu-Seol was a Class 1 mage. However, the opponent was a necromancer at the level of a whopping Class 5.
The difference in level was so serious that it could be considered a fight between a child with a toy and an adult with a knife.
However, there was no way to stop it now.
They also had to deal with dozens of skeletons in addition to two elite skeletons.
She was in a situation where her hands were tied.
"Princess..."
"... I have no ti to pay attention to that! Concentrate on the enemy in front of you!"
The group mbers raised their trembling hands at Hong Bi-Yeon'a remarks. However, they could see how much mana she had left, and their hands trembled less. It must have been the first ti they had been in real combat, but it was good that they had endured this far.
The other team wasn't doing well either.
Edna hugged Jecky, who had a wound in her abdon, and stepped back while gritting her teeth tightly.
Kurreung... Kwaauk!!
Three skeletons were smashed by Haewonryang's staff, but five skeletons filled their spot the next mont.
'As expected, I can't...'
It was impossible to deal with a necromancer with only thirteen students.
There was no way... no hope.
"Ouch!"
He got hit with a stick wielded by a skeleton.
As soon as she saw Haewon-ryang fall backwards due to the impact, she approached him and spread a protective shield.
kook!!
"Ugh...!"
When the group of skeletons started knocking on the light shield, which was too cramped for only three people, it quickly began to crack and shatter.
They were in a situation where they did not have a shred of mana to perform a counterattack. Edna hugged Jecky and Haewon-ryang, who were younger than her, and bowed her head.
"Please, soone please..."
'Help '.
'I want to shout like that.'
Suddenly, all the noises stopped for a few seconds.
".... Uh?"
Sensing sothing strange, she slowly raised her head.
"What is this...?" The nurous skeleton soldiers surrounding her... they all stood still.
As if ti had stopped.
Soon.
Skeletons crumbled to the floor with a sound. Like dolls with a broken thread.
"This... can't be...!"
Rising from the ground first, she supported Haewon-ryang and Jecky to their feet, then moved quickly by supporting her body with her staff.
Hong Bi-Yeon and her group mbers; Eisel, Denmark, and Ben were staggering toward her, as if she wasn't the only one who noticed that the situation had changed.
They finally reached the center.
At that ti.
They saw an unbelievable sight.
A sword shining with colorless halo was inserted into Bae-Hyuk's chest. And Baek Yu-Seol was holding it.
The scene signified only one thing.
'Baek Yu-Seol defeated the necromancer.'
After confirming that fact, they heard soone slump down on the ground. They acted like dominoes in a chain, and likewise, a series of sounds were heard.
"We lived. I lived..."
"Huh..."
How the hell did a freshman in the first year defeat the Necromancer?
Those questions didn't matter at that mont.
They survived. That fact alone touched their heart.
"Aaaaaa!!"
So shouted triumphantly, so wept, and so embraced and rejoiced.
Now, it was okay. They were fine.
