Chapter 191
“Fire!”
A commotion broke out.
The flames spread throughout the dormitory in an instant.
‘Ah……’
I didn’t think this fire was an accident.
It seemed like someone’s arson.
‘I hope it wasn’t you, Reina.’
The smoke quickly became thick, making it hard to see where anything was.
Olsia was greatly flustered and didn’t know what to do.
“Olsia. Come here.”
I pulled Olsia’s wrist.
“We can’t go out through the hallway. I’ll help you escape through the window.”
“B, But……!”
There was no time for a long explanation.
I opened the window and drew out my mana.
“Th, This is the 9th floor…… Uwaaaah!”
I know how you feel.
I remember when I went sledding with Michael in the Elbe Mountains.
I really thought I was going to die then.
But I didn’t die.
Olsia won’t die either.
I thickly coated her with mana and laid a mat on her bottom.
It was like a mana barrier that would absorb all the impact when she landed.
‘I need to go down too.’
I jumped down in the same way.
“Oof.”
Olsia fainted because she was so scared, but she didn’t seem to have any injuries.
The professors and Principal Lugelter also rushed towards us.
Principal Lugelter checked my body.
“Wh, What is this! Are you alright, School Inspector Isabel-nim!”
“I’m fine. Please take care of Olsia first.”
I stood facing the dormitory where the crimson flames were blazing.
“I’m going to put out the fire. Please help me so that no one can interrupt me.”
Principal Lugelter stopped me.
“The fire brigade will arrive soon. Please evacuate to a safer place……”
“It’s too late.”
I know the situation inside best.
Of course, the fire brigade will arrive within 5 minutes, but I don’t know how many people will die in that time.
Isabel bit her lip slightly.
‘There are so many magic professors here……’
If I asked the professors here if anyone could use magic powerful enough to destroy the entire dormitory, everyone would raise their hands.
‘That’s the magic of this era.’
Recently, the trend has been changing, but the tradition that has continued for 500 years will not disappear so easily.
‘It’s the limit of magic studies for war.’
If they use water attribute magic to extinguish the fire, the students who couldn’t evacuate will probably be seriously injured as well.
Because the power to hurt people is basically embedded in their mana.
The magic they learned from childhood was mostly magic for war.
That’s why the professors were also waiting for the fire brigade to arrive.
I said.
“This is the kind of magic I want to leave behind.”
It’s a bit embarrassing to say this myself, but I have a huge amount of mana enough to be chosen as Narvidal’s vessel.
According to Sir Viaton and Teacher Karin, my mana capacity is the best in the world.
‘If only I had enough time.’
In this situation where the professors are protecting me.
If it’s a situation where I can raise my mana without worry, I could implement more powerful magic than anyone else.
‘Materialization of an image.’
Through the Arctic shaved ice, I realized how to materialize an image.
It was difficult at first, but it wasn’t that difficult after that.
‘I’m going to drop a waterfall on the dormitory.’
I imagined a huge waterfall.
However, it seemed impossible to extinguish the huge flames with just plain water.
‘A waterfall in the form of……’
Monoammonium phosphate.
It’s the main ingredient in powder fire extinguishers.
‘It’s easy to reconstruct because I know the molecular formula.’
『(NH4)H2PO4.』
I created a mana substance with a composition as similar as possible.
The experience of imagining Arctic shaved ice and making grains similar to red bean shaved ice helped me a lot.
In other words, it was a waterfall made of fire extinguisher powder.
Swoooosh━━━
The fire extinguisher waterfall poured down.
The fire was extinguished in an instant, and fortunately, there were no casualties.
The fire brigade, which arrived later, went inside the dormitory and checked, and found traces of arson everywhere.
The fire started in Reina’s room.
It was highly likely that Reina, who couldn’t control her anger, committed arson.
“Cadet Reina is missing!”
Reina had disappeared from the dormitory.
✦✦✦✦✦✦
Arun had been homeless for the past few days.
Being homeless was no problem for him.
The most important thing to him was to stay as close to Isabel as possible.
He spent time in a cave on the back mountain of Henkel Magic University.
‘Huh?’
He felt a powerful mana.
‘This is Isabel’s.’
Arun was happy just to feel Isabel’s mana.
Because he could feel Isabel.
Arun smiled brightly and raised his sword.
“When our fiancée releases such powerful mana, there are side effects like this.”
Fortunately, it happened very close this time.
An unidentified magic circle was created, and a huge monster was created from it.
It was a magical beast drawn by Isabel’s mana.
It was the Hydra, a great magical beast known to be capable of annihilating an entire kingdom.
A huge snake with three heads.
It was a great magical beast about 30 meters long, but Arun didn’t care.
“Hey. I’m trying to let Isabel do whatever she wants.”
That’s why he didn’t tell her that there would be side effects like this if she used magic with all her might.
Because if something like this happened because of Isabel, he could take care of it.
“So why don’t you go back to where you were quietly?”
However, monsters and humans could not communicate, and eventually a battle broke out between the Hydra and Arun.
The male lead, who had become much stronger than in
Thump!
The great magical beast, Hydra, fell to the ground.
And a pit was greatly dug.
“Oops.”
He could see black clothes inside the pit.
Arun used his mana to cover the ground again.
“I shouldn’t show anything rough to Isabel.”
One of the reasons Arun was here was to protect Isabel.
Isabel’s ransom was so high that there were always forces trying to kidnap her.
“But the kids always lack individuality. They all wear clothes like that.”
He saw another person wearing black clothes and a mask.
He was muttering to himself.
“Isabel. I will definitely kill you.”
It was a woman’s voice, but the gender didn’t matter.
With murderous intent boiling, it was definitely an assassin.
“Friend, where are you going?”
Arun smiled lightly.
The masked person was startled.
“Y, Y, You are!”
“Friend, goodbye.”
Arun swung his sword.
The masked person couldn’t avoid Arun’s sword.
Even Arun was embarrassed.
He was surprised because she was too weak.
“Where did they send this assassin from?”
He decided to ignore it.
Next was Sermon and Viaton’s turn.
✦✦✦✦✦✦
There is a group called ‘Unarmed Assassins’ in the world.
It wasn’t official, but the seven kings called them that.
They were called the scariest assassins in the history of the empire who didn’t carry swords.
But that was only knowing one thing and not knowing the other.
The unarmed assassins were strong even without swords, but they were stronger with swords.
“Why do guys like you keep appearing no matter how much I beep- and beep-? Like cockroaches.”
“Y, Y, You are, P, Prince Sermon!”
“You guys targeted my sister, right?”
His red eyes shone ominously.
Sermon licked his lips with a dagger.
“P, P, Please spare my life……”
“That won’t happen. I’m going to beep- beep- beep- the ones who touch my sister.”
Sermon got angry for a moment.
“No, but there’s no one as lovely as my sister, so why are you doing this? I don’t understand.”
“It’s a, a misunderstanding.”
“No matter how much you love money.”
“W, We are good people. We have never killed anyone!”
“That’s none of my business.”
Whether they were righteous or not, whether they had killed people or not, it didn’t matter.
“The important thing is that you targeted my lovely sister. If it weren’t for Arun, your dirty tricks would have reached Isabel and contaminated my pure sister.”
There was madness in his eyes.
“So you’re all going to beep- today.”
Paul, the head of the recently emerged assassin’s guild, clenched his fists.
He didn’t seem to have any intention of letting them live.
“D, Don’t be scared! He’s only one person……!”
He couldn’t continue speaking.
He looked at his body from an angle he had never seen before.
This phenomenon of looking at his body from his feet was unrealistic.
Numerous assassin guilds on the continent were annihilated.
“Mission accomplished, Sir Viaton.”
“Thank you for your hard work, Your Highness.”
“Who are the next ones to beep-?”
“You’ve taken care of all of Duke Rossild’s family, right?”
“I didn’t, but they were taken care of. What a shame. I should have cut them myself.”
If Duke Rossild had escaped from the crowd, Sermon would have moved himself.
But Duke Rossild eventually failed to escape the crowd.
“I understand.”
“We checked last time. But why are you asking that again?”
“Well…… Um. This is a bit ambiguous.”
Viaton explained the whole story.
It was because the identity of the masked person full of murderous intent was none other than Reina.
“What does the context matter? She said she was going to kill Isabel, right?”
“That’s right.”
“Then it’s natural to beep- her.”
“Oh!”
Viaton opened his eyes wide and lightly hit his left palm with his right fist.
He gained enlightenment.
“You are wise.”
Sermon simply moved for Isabel, but people thought that the empire was carrying out a perfect cleanup of public order.
There was no longer a place for illegal organizations like the assassin guilds on the continent.
The heads of illegal forces surrendered en masse and repented(?).
Countless imperial citizens praised the ‘Unarmed Assassins’, and an unprecedented era of peace continued.
A year has passed since then.
Isabel’s last birthday is just around the corner.
