Chapter 112 Second Academy, Defeats Demon "Dammit, what"s with you brats.... Just die alreadyyyyyy!"
The demon who encamped itself in the sky above the schoolyard shot out magic at the yard while looking irritated.
There is no hole in the formation the students have taken up.
Likewise, the students" attacks couldn"t reach the demon.
In order to avert the demon"s attention from Alma and Ruli.
"I can"t miss now can I...."
Alma is aiming her bow at the demon slightly away from the students.
The demon moved slowly while still constructing a magic, to evade the arrow.
However, the arrow changed its direction as if it was pursuing the demon.
Yet the arrow still attempted to pursue the demon, however, it eventually couldn"t keep up and pa.s.sed by the demon.
"The h.e.l.l was that arrow--ha!? ....AGAAAAAAAA!"
The demon"s question changed into a painful cry halfway through.
However, Alma who shot the arrow looks perplexed too.
"I did guide it until halfway through... But, I have no idea about that last move too you know? I don"t think an arrow could move like that."
"That wasn"t guided by Alma? Which means, it"s this... Mathi-kun is amazing as always..."
Ruli muttered as she looked at a paper where a magic circle was drawn.
The arrow is stuck on its back--or to be more correct, its two wings like it"s sewn them.
Even demons would be forced to give up flying after that.
The students encircled the demon while maintaining a distance away and shoot out their magic all at once.
This time it reaches.
The attack magic that rained down incessantly without pause produces synergistic effect, mercilessly shaving down the demon"s endurance.
And when the demon tried to close their distance to slash at the students, Alma shot it with arrows embedded with interference magic, stopping it on its track.
Thus the students" encirclement is maintained without ever collapsing.
Nevertheless, they carefully confirmed its death using magic before breaking their formation.
"We beat it! We beat a demon!"
"I can"t believe it, mere students defeating a demon...."
"We"ve got to hurry and report to various places!"
Students and teachers are rejoicing together.
Their expressions were mixed with fatigue and also glee.
"I"m going to tell Mathi-kun!"
"Me too!"
Ruli and Alma ran toward the dungeon to tell Mathias their victory.
--A voice resounded amidst the celebratory air.
And it"s not just one or two.
--14.
There isn"t anyone left in the capital who"s calm enough to count their number though.
"You"re kidding me...."
"Just how many are them...."
"There"s no way we can win this...."
Merely defeating a demon necessitated a total war.
Their situation is hopeless no matter how you look at it.
The students have lost their fighting spirit, none is even holding their weapon straight.
No, to be more correct, he was stopped.
Because that demon was cut in two by a sword that projected out of thin air.
As if saying that it must be some kind of mistake.
However, a mistake it is not.
The demons who have been driven by fear begin swing their swords around haphazardly.
It was meaningless.
However, the students who saw the current situation are vaguely aware of the ident.i.ty of the one behind it.
--Because there is only one person in the capital who can possibly do such a feat.
"...Fourteen huh. That"s more than I expected."
