Chapter 206
With a single wave of her hand, she silenced the crowd.
The view of the arena as the blizzard ceases to rage.
The paper army is completely shattered, and they fall to the ground, and Choi Yeon stands tall and alone.
-The match is over! The result of today's club match, the victory of Familia! It was a match that showed where they stand in the Academy right now!!!
!!
At the sound of Instructor Fadoyun shouting, the entire arena erupts in cheers and applause.
Choi Yeon stares at her sword, which has disappeared, as if she doesn't care about the sounds outside.
She notices the door slowly opening and walks out.
Choi Yeon, Choi Yeon, Choi Yeon, Choi Yeon, Choi Yeon!
Choi Yeon stumbles over to me even as her name is called.
"This is."
"Huh?"
"You have to tell that we broke it together."
"what?"
"We're accomplices from now on."
Even if I'm an accomplice, I'm the only one who's going to get in trouble in the endbut I figured if I didn't nod my head here, she'd just continue to sulk, so I decided to go along with it.
"Okay."
"I promise."
It'll just be a matter of time anyway.
"Okay, I promise, but let's call it a day. Thank you for everything."

Now all that's left is the tournament tomorrow.
The remaining club is called the Knights.
The club was supposed to be a group of go knights, but I couldn't stop thinking about what Latte had said last night.
The club is called the Knights. It's a recently formed club, and the strange thing is that it's maintained by winning internal competitions, most of which are unknown even to the average student at the academy. It must be a club that holds competitions amongst themselves and wins all the prizes.
As she said, the Knights were no ordinary club.
They were the private army of Ray Pendragon, the president of the student council
The same could be said for the internal competition she was talking about. Ray himself organized the student council's competitions and won the awards himself, and that's how he's kept the club alive until now.
That's not all, the members of this club are not ordinary people either.
It's a non-military club, but the members are actually middle of the pack among the second and third years.
In other words, the mercenaries they've recruited so far are a smokescreen. In the first place, they had the mindset that they only needed to beat me.
Im dying of anticipation. Really."
There's nothing more satisfying than completely crushing an enemy who's prepared.
It was a trap set by someone who hadn't properly analyzed my power.
Perhaps, it would be like all of the Knights rushing in?
I thought so, but.
"Death to Eugene Han!"
"""Death! Death!"""
"Despair for Familia!"
"""Despair! Despair!""""
I guess I should take back what I said about underestimating my power.
~The day of my duel. An afternoon at the academy~
An army had been assembled against me.
"No, this is a scam! You said it was a non-martial arts club! What kind of non-martial arts club shows up in full plate armor!"
Jin-woo protests to the other side at the ridiculous sight in front of him.
In response, the leader of the Knights, who was also wearing full plate armor, throws up his hands in confusion.
"The student council approved the all-out war this morning, so there's nothing wrong with it."
I hadn't expected the Knights to call for an all-out war today.
The student council is the one who gives the green light for the showdown but I hadn't expected them to point their blades at us so openly.
"All-out war?! Great, then we can join in right away!"
In response, Jin-woo tries to loosen his tie, but just then, the members of the Knights step back to either side, and a girl walks out from between them.
Seo-yeon, the club manager of the Seoul Hero Academy's student council.
"By school rules, for the safety of the students, there must be no dueling the day before, andyou all fall under that category, right?"
She opened the pamphlet she was carrying and spoke casually. Find the newest novels at novelhall.com
Jin-woo approaches her and exclaims.
"Where in the world is that rule?"
"Here. See for yourself."
Seo-yeon says and shows him a page from the booklet. Jin-woo frowns and checks the contents.
"Nodoes it really exist?"
Literally child's play compared to what I've been doing.
That doesnt mean I dont feel bad, does it?
Doing something very blatantly ridiculous.
Therefore
I need you to be the ones I vent my anger on this time.
So Ray Pendragon wont bring any more of this shit.
[A number of enemies are sending enmity.]
[Bloodline Ability: Corleone is activated.]
[Talent:Enforcer is activated.]
[Abyssal Flame Ring reacts to darkness.]
[Stats increase.]
I slowly walk forward, pointing my Tommy at them.
A rumbling voice comes from the other side.
"His weapons can't penetrate the shield! All units, activate shields and advance!"
The shields of the men in front of them glowed, and a translucent barrier began to surround them.
The Tommy gun had been used many times before, so it must have been studied.
But
"When the hell are you talking about enemies?"
The information was so outdated.
!! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !! / !!
Al Capones Tommy spits out flames and makes a creepy sound as a huge boom is heard as the bullets fired land.
"What, what, it's cracked, the shield is cracked!"
"Mages, reinforce the shields now!"
"I thought you said shields were impenetrable!"
Despite my mild greeting, their camp begins to shake.
"I haven't even started yet."
I continue to walk toward them, while pouring my aura into the Tommy.
Ugh, were changing the defense!
As a result, they could no longer advance and their movement stopped.
Buffs were added to the shields with a flash of light and suddenly, the seemingly impenetrable shield was barely holding.
At the same time
"Fire!"
Arrows begin to fly from the gaps in the shield as they have begun to hold me at bay.
A classic move that would have worked against an ordinary club or a moderately strong opponent, yes, against a moderately strong opponent.
[Activate Black Sword!]
I charge at them, accelerating just before the arrows land on me.
At the same time, I swap the Tommy in my hand for Billy the Kid's shotgun. Keeping it slung over my shoulder, I charge at them, pumping as much Aura as I can into it.
"Stop him!"
In response, a few of the troopers rushed forward to stop me.
"Okay, hold on."
Is there any way they could block a shotgun that even worked on a dragon?
Kwaang!
The guys who couldn't withstand the impact just flew backwards, screaming in despair.
"Crazy, did they just get knocked out by a single blow?!"
"Use everything you can! Debuffs, curses, whatever!"
[DisPater resists Abyssal Miasma!]
[Resisted successfully!]
"Alas, to no avail?"
After firing two rounds I rotated the shotgun with one hand and spin-cocked to reload.
The muzzle, which emits an ugly red light, is pointed at the guys once again.
"Crazy!"
"Scatter!"
An individual cannot defeat an army but we recognize individuals who can overcome such situations and call them heroes.
So what about this situation?
An individual outmaneuvering an army.
An individual who overwhelms an army.
And we call them
"Monster!"
Monster.
It doesn't sound too bad.
