A Failed Knight Who Went to the Academy To Get Married

044 For Myself

As soon as the king of Siandar and his closest knights stepped out, it was a chaotic scene.

“Kill them! Kill them all!”

In the middle of the garden, a gigantic and grotesque dragon was causing a commotion.

It was only destroying buildings without any apparent reason, but it was unclear when it would attack them.

The knights, armed with swords, surrounded him as if to protect the king.

“Your Majesty, please step back.”

“No, I’ll cut it myself.”

As Siandar stepped forward,

the Stoker prince grabbed his shoulder to restrain him.

“Even if I’m your father, it’s hard to understand this, isn’t it?”

“The enemy of Altoria is my enemy. Who else would fight for it?”

“Well, it’s fine. It’s better to leave it to the heroes of the next generation, too.”

As he said this, King Siandar looked ahead at something far away.

There were already a few young people preparing to fight monsters.

“…the heroes of the next generation, you say.”

He smiled wryly at the backs of the heroes, without realizing it.

***

…the distance between their haughty demeanor and reality was a bit far.

Yuuri scolded Trian.

“Trian, you’re leaving.”

“There’s still about 10 seconds of battle power left.”

“Leave already.”

“Fine.”

Rizbeth stood in front of Trian and said…

“So, I’ll take over here instead of the trend.”

“Now, come and show off your army, you’re so smug.”

“Thanks. I’m also proud of being so smug.”

Maria stepped forward, pulling away from Sei-min’s treatment.

“Everyone, let’s go! I’ll kill that fallen person!”

“You seem to be the most hurt, don’t you?”

“So, what are you going to do?”

As they glared at each other, Sei-min suddenly approached,

and the cold gazes all converged on her.

Sei-min smiled awkwardly, taken aback by the atmosphere, and took a step back.

“I’ll just stay behind and provide support from the back, so don’t worry about it.”

Just then, Prince Siran and Princess Sia approached from behind.

“These kids will fight each other as soon as there’s a gap.”

“It’s good to have a good relationship, so it’s only natural.”

“Friendship is just a superficial courtesy, and the most distant word.”

As Trian gazed at them, a slight smile played on his lips.

“Everyone’s safe, I suppose.”

Just then, the crown prince, Shirohiko, caught his eye, and he momentarily lost himself in thought.

Shirohiko noticed Trian’s gaze and broke into a wide smile.

“Hey, Trian-kun? It’s been a while.”

“…Who are you?”

“I’m not sure, to be honest. I don’t remember being anyone.”

“Sorry, but I really don’t remember anything.”

“I cheered for your fight during the sports festival, disguising myself as a commoner.”

Next to him, Princess Sia spoke up with a slightly cold tone.

“Don’t mess with me. You’re just a boring stalker.”

“And you’re also my rival.”

Shirohiko extended his hand in a gesture of friendship, saying, “Let’s get along.”

Trian felt a shiver run down his spine and stepped back.

“I’ll do as you say. I have a royal allergy, you know.”

“Ha ha ha! You’re my rival, as always!”

The Story King suddenly patted Trail’s shoulders carelessly.

Yu-ri spoke in a slightly nervous voice.

“Easy does it. Are we playing or not?”

However, the Story King suddenly wrapped his arms around Trail and grinned mischievously.

“It’s not playing, I think. Our relationship with Trail is so deep and sentimental.”

Trail felt a sudden nausea, as if he had a royal allergy.

But soon, he was taken aback by the dreadful presence surrounding him and turned around to look around.

“What’s going on?! Is it a monster?!”

Even Dorea noticed the aura and looked at him.

“There they are! I’ll take them all down!”

Dorea seemed to be ready to attack, her tail swishing wildly.

Everyone at the scene scattered like ants, as if they had made a pact.

“Gotcha!”

Maria leaped up onto Dorea’s tail, clinging to it.

Then Dorea soared high, whipping her tail around ferociously.

“Fall!”

“No way! Absolutely not!”

Seimint raised his staff as,

countless vines wrapped around Dorea’s tail, restraining her.

In the pause, Lizbeth drew her sword, shouting to the rear Princess Sia,

“Princess! Cast your flight magic for me!”

Sia’s expression turned cold as she asked,

“Who are you?”

“…I am always myself.”

Sia then seemed to give up, smiling wryly as she chanted a spell.

In the end, Lizbeth spread her wings on her back and took to the sky,

and Traindo, watching her, shouted,

“Princess Sia! Cast it for me too!”

“I don’t want it.”

“What? I, I…”

Sia turned her back to the trail.

He let out a short sigh before shouting at Yu-ril this time.

“Yu-ril! Throw me to the dragon!”

“I understand.”

Yu-ril grabbed Tria’s arm and threw her strongly in the opposite direction of the dragon.

“Yaaahahahaha!”

However, Yu-ril had probably taken Tria’s consideration into account, and he ended up falling into the pond instead of the manhole.

As Tria was momentarily stunned, someone extended a hand to her.

“Ah, thank you.”

Tria hesitated for a moment before grasping that hand and getting up.

And then she looked at the owner of that hand and was taken aback.

“That’s not one of my girlfriends, so I’m disappointed.”

“…it’s more unsettling than disappointing, isn’t it?”

“Ah, and I’m Second Prince Shiro too.”

“This is a train.”

“I know. I’m familiar with you, to a certain extent.”

Shiro’s gentle smile made Train’s head spin.”

“Hey, you can relax now.”

However, Prince Shiro pressed his body even closer to Train’s.”

“Don’t worry, just entrust your body to me. I’ll become half of you.”

***

Yuuri jumped up and landed on the top of DoReMi’s head.

At first, she just intended to observe the situation, but…

When she saw DoReMi’s face, she couldn’t help but get excited.

“…the enemy of Elford.”

She suddenly changed direction, turning the corner.

And then, she quickly tried to stick her sword into DoReMi’s forehead.

Consumed by resentment, she almost lost her sight.

That’s why she failed to notice the monster’s fiery breath emanating from its mouth.

In the end, Yu-ri had become a laughingstock, jumping into the dragon’s den of her own accord.

“Ah!”

It was too late.

Only then did Yu-ri recall the words Traelin had spoken.

“If no one wants to be unhappy, then revenge is something that must not be done.”

In the end, Yu-ri’s body was on the brink of being engulfed by the black flames.

“Grab me!”

Someone grabbed Yu-ri mid-air and barely managed to avoid the flames.

From noble mtl dot come

A being with wings like an angel smiled and said.

“You’re disappointed because Traelin isn’t there.”

Yu-ri smiled slightly in response.

“I think it’s lucky, actually.”

“When you’re done, you’ll make up for it, so just hang in there for now.”

“That’s how it is.”

Lizbertt placed Yuuri on the floor and paused for a moment to survey the situation.

Yuuri’s tail was still stuck to the trellis.

Maria was climbing up his back, but it seemed to be a bit of a struggle because of Dorea’s kicking legs.

Lizbertt wrapped his red aura around his sword and said.

“It’s hard to make even a small scratch with a sword that doesn’t have aura.”

Yuuri also wrapped his red aura around his sword and said.

“Let’s get the enemy to the ground first.”

“I’ll take the left wing.”

“Then I’ll take the right wing.”

The two of them charged towards Doera at the same time.

In no time, the two red auras sliced through Doera’s wings.

Doera finally fell to the ground and kicked even more wildly.

“This brat dares!”

Again, he tried to unleash the black flames,

“No way!”

Sia’s bullet hit DoReMi’s jawbone, freezing it entirely.

As DoReMi writhed in agony, another bullet flew in.

“Have this one too!”

Sir An’s bullet hit DoReMi’s eyes head-on.

DoReMi screamed in pain, flailing his body wildly,

Just as Maria, who had reached the top of his head, grasped the Mace.

“Now, let’s go back to the arms of Lady Yuma!”

She struck DoReMi’s vital spot with all her might,

And his head burst apart in a gruesome manner, his body limp.

Princess Sia still aimed at DoReMi, saying,

“Is it over?”

Sir An stood beside her, smirking.

“Not yet,” he said.

As black smoke burst forth from Dorea’s head and wings, it began to regenerate slowly.

Maria tried to crush his head again, but-

“Die! If you breathe in that smoke, you’ll die immediately!”

Maria quickly jumped out of the building upon hearing the scream from inside.

Not long after, Dorea’s body was completely enveloped in a black mist.

As the Seimint’s vines withered and snapped, Dorea took to the air again, shouting.

“Hahahaha! I’m invincible! I’ll kill you all!”

At that moment, a shockwave hit Dorea from the window of the building.

And then, the black mist was blown away in an instant.

Lizbeth looked up at the window with a faint smile.

“Tanjet, uncle…”

The unbalanced Dorea began to rampage wildly.

“This brat!”

And then, he summoned a massive cluster of blinding magical orbs in mid-air.

The sacred chant pierced through the ELF.

Maria shouted to everyone.

“Be careful! It hurts terribly!”

“It’s too late!”

The sacred chants poured down like rain.

But for some reason, they suddenly vanished into thin air.

“What… what…?”

Upon closer inspection, three fireflies were hovering around DoReMi’s eyes.

“Now’s the time! Let’s get out of here!”

Rizbeto and Yuuri rushed towards DoReMi again.

“It’s hopeless!”

DoReMi flapped his wings wildly,

And with the force of the gust, the two inspectors were blown away.

“Ack!”

“Eeeeee!”

Dorea didn’t miss the opportunity and rushed towards them.

And then she whipped her tail like a whip, trying to kill them both at the same time.

“Hahahah! I’ll kill you all-“

Snap.

A silent figure drew a long, dark arc in the air.

Suddenly, Dorea’s tail was severed instantly.

“What’s wrong?!”

Dorea was startled and looked around, but couldn’t find any trace of the person who had cut her tail.

“This wretched child! You can’t come out-“

In that moment, Dorea’s jaw was bitten off.

Dorea couldn’t say another word and looked straight at the man in front of her, who was wearing a white cloak.

The man removed his cloak’s hat and spoke calmly.

“Ah, sorry. I was originally planning to pull the aggro, but I forgot that the cloak had a recognition effect.”

“…my throat’s about to burst!”

“Don’t use your powers, you know!”

Just then, Shiro Wang’s voice came from an unexpected direction.

“I lent you my powers, so don’t worry, my lady!”

“But the borrowed powers are dangerous!”

At that moment, a cat’s voice came from inside the window.

“Yu-ril! Since you’re going to die on the train, don’t worry!”

After a brief pause, the cat shouted again.

“Train! The weak point of this guy is his heart! Stab it in one shot!”

Dorea let out a terrifying roar and flew back to gaze at Train.

“…revenge, justice… Don’t bother with such excuses.”

Train gazed at Dorea with a slightly sad-looking eye.

“I’m sorry, but I’ll kill you for the sake of my happiness.”

Dorea attempted a swift descent, ready to attack Train.

Train slowly raised his sword.

For the First Time, I’ll Experience Murder.

Trembling arms and gasping breaths.

Overwhelming self-reproach and hesitation.

But Trail didn’t make a mistake.

Because I deeply memorized the last will of my master.

Just before Trail was about to crush DoRea,

“…!”

Trail’s sword pierced DoRea’s chest.

The flash of light followed him once,

And DoRea’s chest burst open, his heart shattered.

Ironically, his last moment resembled Elford’s death.

However, there was no one to mourn DoRea’s death here.
