Surprising Even Breathing

23 – Are you an assassin?

Rumble! shoot it

The heavy rain was pouring down, blurring my vision.

The occasional flash of lightning is dazzling.

In the meantime, I looked down at Broa, who passed out in front of me.

‘What was it?’

While I was doing my own training with cloud lifting, she suddenly drew my attention with a scream.

I wondered if she was okay, so I pulled out the old tree that was covering her and threw it aside and asked her condition.

It attacked me by activating flame magic with a dajjagojja item.

And I passed out all alone.

“????”

Standing in front of the collapsed Broa, he tilted his head.

It was not easy to infer a causal relationship.

Why did he dare to come to this empty lot to find me, why did he suddenly attack me after he was trembling with fear, and why did he pass out after attacking himself?

‘Did you pass out without an attack? Did you strike first because you were afraid of me and then collapsed?’

I tried bringing and attaching possible logic, but no clear answer came out.

Maybe this woman knows why.

However, since he had already passed out, it was not easy to ask why.

I knelt down and took a closer look at the fallen Broa.

The necklace that had been spitting out fire magic was shining faintly from the chest.

She collapsed and turned on her side.

The pouring rain wets her eyes and trickles down.

Seeing as there was no reaction, it seems that he passed out completely.

I straightened my back and got myself up.

My top was burned by the fire magic, but my body is fine.

There was no way that there would be any damage from this amount of fire magic, and before the firepower reached my body, the magic of the tattoo was already activated and protected me.

Only the clothes scorched by the flames turned to ashes and scattered on the floor.

‘Did you burn my clothes?’

she was a strange woman

The behavior he did here was unusual, he even attacked me and burned my clothes.

You wouldn’t dare do this to me if your liver wasn’t big enough.

Come to think of it, I’ve already been preemptively attacked by her twice.

Once with a sword at the entrance exam hall, and once with fire magic this time.

This was definitely the first time this had happened.

When everyone sees me, they kneel down and are busy running away, but you attacked me twice?

I wasn’t even hiding my energy this time.

The mantle and hood that hides magical power are removed, and the bracelet is untied.

The magic power flowing from me was so powerful that it would have been difficult to breathe if I was near it.

‘Could it be this woman?’

Thinking that far, I came up with a plausible hypothesis.

All of her behavior can be explained by this hypothesis alone.

‘Is he an assassin?’

An assassin disguised as a student to kill me.

For some reason, I thought it might be.

Otherwise, there was no way he would have secretly followed me with the obvious intention of hurting me like this.

Because he was an assassin, he plucked up the courage to attack me at the entrance examination hall, and because he was an assassin, he followed me to this remote place and induced me to lose my guard by screaming.

‘Ohh.’

I put my chin on my chin and smiled at the exciting development of logic.

There was a bit of a leap of logic in identifying her as the assassin, but it seemed clear that she was intent on attacking me anyway.

‘I’ll have to keep an eye on this woman for now.’

Assassins are precious.

Not only assassins, but all characters who attack or approach me are precious.

Broa, Assassin or not, has already attacked me a couple of times and amused me.

I just came here to exercise, and all sorts of strange things happen.

Is this what academy life is?

It was interesting from day one.

Took, tok, tok.

The rain soon stopped.

In the first place, it was a shower that was forced by lifting with the clouds, so when I left the clouds alone, the rain stopped and the sky became peaceful.

Originally, this is what happens when I use my strength in earnest.

Natural disasters happen, meteorological phenomena occur.

Seeing this, the Dragonians called me the descent of the Dragon God, but I don’t know.

I just wanted to use my strength normally.

Everything is flimsy, weak, and easily broken.

As a result, I am bored and lonely, and I have to be careful when dealing with others.

Even a mistake or move that is not a big deal to me might crush the other person by him.

Should I say that it is like a frog getting hit by a stone thrown inadvertently?

Anyway, I used my strength without causing any damage to my surroundings, and I relaxed with a refreshing feeling.

Training in the vacant lot was fun, so I was satisfied and was about to go back when I saw Broa lying on the floor.

‘Is it okay if I leave it as it is?’

She was completely unconscious.

This is a remote vacant lot with few people.

If she is left alone, wild beasts might come down and bite her body, or someone with an evil heart might kidnap her without even realizing it.

At least I’ll have to move him to the infirmary until he comes to his senses.

I packed up the gray cloak I had left on the floor and tried to move with the magic control bracelet on my left hand, but looking at myself, I couldn’t make sense.

His clothes got wet from being hit by the wind and rain, and his top was all burned by fire magic, so his clothes were all tattered.

‘The school uniform has been worn out since the first day.’

I clicked my tongue thinking that I would have to get a new suit.

Cloud lifting is good because it’s an exercise, but it’s also noisy, and the rain and wind blow like this, so your clothes get wet and wrinkled.

I thought I came up with a pretty ingenious workout, but I’ll have to refrain from exercising with clouds for a clean look from now on.

When he lifted Broa who had collapsed with telekinesis, he was also in a state of disrepair.

Drops of water trickled down from his wet body.

I was hit by the shower all over my body without using an umbrella or raincoat.

He was even lying on the grass, so there were bits of grass and sand stuck to his clothes.

I put on a gray cloak and telekinetically brushed the dust off her clothes.

And I walked slowly towards the infirmary.

thug, thug.

Drops of water fall on the road we pass, leaving wet footprints.

When I was walking to the infirmary close to the main building.

“omg!”

“Me-what is that!”

“Are you dead? Poetry, a corpse?”

Students passing by trembled.

Because we are so unique.

A creepy man trudges along wet with a gray cloak.

With a rather grotesque air, I took Broa to the infirmary.

“Ahh!”

The doctor and the priest were frightened when they saw me and Broa, but nothing special happened after I told them to take care of her and left.

Actually, I’m scared, I’m not afraid of Broa, who’s passed out normally.

I make the atmosphere around me terrifying just by being there.

“Oh, Demesis! What happened at the academy?”

Wirekka asks a question in surprise when she returns home with her jacket all burnt and wet.

From his point of view, I would never get burned or get wet.

I couldn’t imagine what would have happened since I ate my clothes from the first day of school.

“hmm. Nothing happened. After taking my first class, visiting the academy for a bit, and following others in the gym, a classmate suddenly appeared and hit me with flame magic?”

I briefly explained what happened today to Wireka, who was embarrassed.

“Chuck, was your first class partner the Great Grizzly Bear? It’s a monster that corresponds to a 4th grade field boss…”

“The professor apologized to me. I was not prepared for class. Preparing such a weak monster, the content of the class was a bit disappointing.”

Unlike me expressing my disappointment, Wireka’s expression was wrinkled.

Does Great Grizzly Bear make sense from the first lesson?

The opponents of the freshmen are the raid mob of the S-class devil.

I think it’s strange, but I couldn’t ask myself about it.

If I say yes, then so be it.

“I was training like lifting weights with that, gu, cloud, but a classmate came and surprised me? By activating flame magic that will instantly burn Demesis’ clothes.”

“Yes. I guess she was an assassin. It was a pretty sharp surprise. It was a pretty fun experience. To come to such a remote place and target me.”

“Oh, no. You’re an assassin! Aren’t you supposed to report it right away? If there’s an assassin in the academy, uh, what?”

“done. Leave it alone. Wouldn’t it be nice if you attacked me? And it’s still unclear if he’s an assassin. I will keep watching.”

Wirekka’s expression asked, “What kind of people are there?”

No matter how swollen the liver is, to try to attack while knowing Demesis.

He seemed quite shocked by the series of things that he couldn’t understand.

“Demesis said, there’s no way there could be a lie.”

I was the one who solved everything simply and explained it condensedly.

Wirekka clenched her head as if she was dizzy with the mere list of facts.

“I am looking forward to the next classes. ‘History of the Continent and Characteristics of Races’, ‘Introduction to Basic Life Magic.’”

Either that or not, I ordered Wireka to get a new school uniform and looked at the academy schedule.

‘History of the Continent and Characteristics of Tribes’ is a liberal arts course that all academy special classes take together, and aims at understanding and cooperation between each race rather than fighting.

Through this class, full-fledged exchanges with classmates will occur.

‘Introduction to Basic Life Magic’ was an elective course to learn magic useful in real life, not combat magic.

Let’s learn a convenient life magic that will take care of troublesome things.

No matter what class it was, it was a pretty interesting topic and content.
