Chapter 247

TL: Zimmings

I glanced at Mina with a confused expression.

‘She saw him in a dream?’

What does she mean by that and those words?

“Johann makes me think, ‘Is this how it feels to have an older brother?’ He also said to me, ‘Is this how it feels to have a younger sister?’ It’s always fun to be with the three Dubblede brothers.”

What Mina said in my first life came to mind.

‘She saw her first life in her dreams?’

What kind of dream did she have?

Then did she know that I was a child of evil God who was eventually sacrificed?

I clenched my hand while holding the skirt.

“Little sister.”

“…….”

“Leblaine”

I looked at Johann in surprise.

“Ah… yes.”

“What are you thinking about?”

“… No, it’s just… ah, where’s Isaac and Henry?

I thought the two would arrive first.

If there is a teleportation scroll, distance is not an issue, so they could follow them.

“They tried to search for you and save you from Kuhelm.”

“I see.”

“Then did they go back to school?”

“No.”

I hesitated when I heard Johann’s answer. Somehow, I felt an ominous feeling.

“Then where are they?”

“They ran into a bunch of monsters while searching for you. And the news was cut off.”

“What?!”

When I shouted, everyone’s attention was focused on Johann and me.

Johann grabbed my shoulder and said.

“After we save you, we’re planning to search for Henry and Isaac.”

I covered my mouth, and the expressions of Odis students who heard it turned pale.

Emeline came running toward us.

“Then Miss Juliet too? All of the seniors disappeared?”

“Yes, not only the Elysiano Class but also all of the students who participated.”

I grabbed John and frantically asked him.

“How… When did they cut off communication? Right after we were kidnapped? Then we don’t even know if they’re alive or dead-!”

“Leblaine.”

“…….”

“Calm down. Odis had asked neighbouring countries for help. This incident involves many powerful figures. Wigentra’s two princes, scarlet princess, Atar tribe’s heir, and many others. They would be found soon with that many resources.”

“… If Odis requested a search, it means that the battle against the hordes of monsters was huge.”

At that moment, I remembered something that I felt anxious about before.

‘It’s because of me…’

I got goosebumps all over my body, and my head was jumbled up.

Henry, Isaac, and…… Adrian’s face fikled my head

‘This has never happened in my previous life.’

Odis frequently fought against Kuhelm in my previous life.

Johann, Henry, and Isaac entered the Odis Academy and often went to battle.

However, they never went missing after meeting a herd of monsters.

‘Why did the future change? Is it because me and Mina went to Odis?’

A person’s future can be changed if I took a part in it. But I never heard of those monsters.

‘It’s not like a person can make a bunch of monsters… wait, a person made it?’

When I thought about it, some questions naturally came to mind.

I looked at the chief who knelt down under the chain of mana.

“Wha- what…?!”

“How did you collude with a student at Odis?”

“What?”

“Don’t say you’ve never colluded. Because we already know that we were able to be kidnapped because there was a traitor in our unit.”

“W-with money.”

“No, I saw the ledger you traded with Hannibal. You don’t have enough money to coax the students of Odis, who came from prestigious families.”

I grabbed him by the neck and asked.

“Who is it? Who told you to kidnap me and Mina? Who made a bunch of monsters?

“…….”

The chief merely gulped.

I shouted with full strength in my hands.

“Viscount Dubos!”

Viscount Dubos quickly approached me.

I looked the chief in the eye and said.

“In my family, there’s nothing people won’t say when they fall into Dubos’ hand. He’s a professional torturer.”

“……!”

“Shall we make a bet? How long has it been since you opened your mouth?”

I pushed him to Viscount Dubos.

“Show us your skills.”

Viscount Dubos laughed insidiously.

“I won’t let you down.”

Not long after the chief was taken to the hands of Viscount Dubos, a desperate scream rang in the village.

***

At that time, on a certain mountain.

“Jin, Jin…! Calm down…”

The scarlet princess, Ryu Hong-hae, grabbed Jin.

Jin, whose abdomen was pierced by the monster’s teeth, breathed roughly and grabbed his wound.

“First of all, don’t gossip. Take care of my precious body.”

Isaac sighed at him who playfully said that.

“Even in this situation… ugh, never mind. I can’t leave you behind anyway.”

Monsters are everywhere. One unit involved in this battle was already annihilated. Even their body could not be recovered, as their flesh was eaten by a monster.

Those monsters were different from ordinary ones.

Magic doesn’t work on them. They also couldn’t use magic tools such as teleportation scrolls when there were monsters near them.

The only thing that could be made is a barrier. And that doesn’t work unless it’s a super high level barrier.

The blades could only attack the monsters when they contained auras.

However, the ones who could use it were only Elysiano’s students, so it was too much for them to protect everyone.

At that time, Henry, who had been holding the barrier all day, stumbled and fainted.

“Brother!”

There are many red veins all over his body. It was a sign that Henry’s mana was about to run out.

Naturally, Henry’s barrier disappeared.

As soon as that happened, monsters began to appear one by one.

The monster tried to break through the barrier. Juliet choked up and vomited blood when she tried to hold them back.

Ryu Hong-hae said,

“Seems like I’m going to die, but still, don’t break the barrier. Hold it even if I die…!”

The first unit was wiped out while dealing with two monsters. Jin was also wounded.

There is no way they can deal with the five monsters that have gathered now.

Juliet clenched her teeth and shouted.

“… By the way, how’s Henry?”

Isaac, who looked at Henry, said and clicked his tongue.

“I’m glad he didn’t die.”

“What the… Hong hae, take care of Jin, Hayton, and Adrian. I’ll prepare the others.”

Ryu Hong-hae looked at Jin, who was unable to move, Adrian, who was unconscious, and numerous students trembling with fear.

“Are you going to break the barrier? No, how can we run away in this state? It would have been impossible without Adrian to escape.….”

Adrian was the one who killed two monsters.

Had it not been for his power that was different from ordinary humans, all Odis’ students would have already been wiped out.

Juliet muttered.

“No, I’m not going to do that. But I couldn’t hold on.”

“H-how much time left?”

“…at most 30 minutes.”

“What?! You have to hold out until the reinforcements come-”

Boom!

Boom boom!

The monsters tried to break the barrier.

Juliet managed to stop them, but red veins began to be visible in her body.

“I can’t last five minutes.”

Isaac hurriedly supported Henry.

“There’s no way out, is there?”

“…….”

“If we get out of here, we can use a teleportation circle. Is there really no way out?”

“…… We’re not strong enough to do that.”

In the end, that meant that they had to face a bunch of monsters.

Boom! Boom!

The barrier was shaking violently, and then Juliet collapsed after a while.

The monsters slowly moved to Juliet, whose veins went until her temple.

They soon rushed toward her.

“Juliet-!”

As soon as Ryu Hong-hae’s scream echoed,

“Pur. Boone.”

Another voice was heard, and a huge barrier came up above the students’ heads.

‘This voice…’

Light had enveloped them, and when they opened their eyes, they could see brown hair.

“Pur, Boone…!!”

Once again, her shout rang the mountain, and smoke rose from the ground.

The smoke began to take the form of humans and countless soldiers wearing iron masks with horns appeared.

They are the ghost army recorded in history.

It was the first time a phantom army appeared again.

***

Meanwhile, at Odis Academy.

Thud!

Empress Yvonne, who became restless, opened the door of the academy’s conference hall.

The academy principal, professors, and envoys from each country, who were already at the table, raised themselves.

The empress who was breathing heavily shouted at the principal.

“What happened to Andre?”

“That’s…….”

“I asked you what happened to my son!”

When the empress shouted, the principal looked away.

“We found the location of the students who disappeared from Dubblede. But Dubblede’s soldiers are no match for those monster.… First of all, we’re watching the situation, so calm down…….”

“Calm down? How can I calm down when my son is in danger!”

The principal was sweating a lot due to nervousness.

Dubblede’s soldiers are considered monsters among other soldiers. But they couldn’t even beat them.

Each country gave them help, but they couldn’t even confirm the state of the students.

Even cardinals from the temple arrived, and with the help from Dubblede’s mage, they could see the situation.

The bloodied students were seen through the screen.

The envoys from each country arrived to see the situation through a teleportation scroll.

“Oh no, Honghae…”

Joo Wolbi, Ryu Honghae’s mother, covered her mouth with trembling hands.

The heir of the Atar tribe was also seen fighting desperately that veins started to appear on his fist.

Just then,

[Pur, Boone…!]

When the voice was heard, Empress Cecilia, who went on the emperor’s behalf entered the conference hall.

Seeing the screen, she muttered.

“Leblaine…?”

The people in the conference hall whispered after hearing her words,

“Leblaine? Do you mean Lady Dubblede?”

“Wait, what’s that?”

The smoke that gathered under Leblaine’s feet turned into a human form, and a large army of iron masks appeared.

“Teleportation scroll? Did she call the soldiers with that?”

“Didn’t you say that humans are no match for those monsters? She should’ve brought mages…….”

“No, look at that!”

When someone shouted, everyone focused again on the screen.

The shadow attacked the monsters.

But…

“Didn’t you say that humans can’t compete with them?”

“I heard that, but…”

“Then what is that?”

The phantom soldiers were knocking down the giant monster as if it were a piece of paper.
