Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3)
Humans did not evolve themselves.
Sheep and their wool were an example; bears with their thick skin, and sea lions with their dense layers of fat.
Keeping oneself warm in a cold environment was a crucial element of survival. ability As such, many animals have evolved into having thick skin, layers of fat, or long fur.
So what had humanity been doing all that time?
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
They did not have thick layers of fat, skin, or fur. acquire However, they did something horrible which only the terrible humans have done in the history of the universe, and that was making clothing.
Removing the skin of other animals and after getting rid of the blood and head, they tanned it to form clothes. arena That was the wicked and rightful deeds that only humans were allowed to do.
If we didn’t have it, all we needed to do was take the wool from sheep and skin other animals to create clothing, right?
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Ugh… So wet.”
“Hold on. audit It was your idea in the first place.”
And here we were, wearing the skin of another animal.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
Both of us were inside the sheepskin that had been ripped out of the dead sheep. arena Like two people sharing a sleeping bag with holes for the arms and the legs, one of us was carrying the other, who had to stick as close as possible to avoid being a nuisance to the one walking.
“But…”
Looking at the deskinned head of the sheep that was discarded and buried in the snow made me feel like it was crying out a curse. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
-Curse you! meadow I won’t forget you even in the afterlife! portal I curse you, damn humans!
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
As if remorseful even after its death, the skin from the head of the sheep fell and pounced on Estelle’s head.
“Stop throwing your arms around! harbor It’ll keep your ears warm so that’s even better!”
“Kyaak! august T, the head! athlete The head skin fell down! abstract It’s on my head like a hat!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Ugh… Are you okay? afford Junior?”
“Fortunately, you are extremely light, Saintess, so that helps.”
Estelle was leaning on me inside the sheepskin. auction It was something that had to be done for both of us to escape the cold, but it was undeniable that it wasn’t the most elegant of things.
“Aren’t you being too harsh just because it’s not you who has to go through this?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“You should always say yes in a time like that, Junior. zenith Otherwise, you won’t be loved by the ladies.”
“Exactly. crystal I’m as light as a feather, right?”
“Not that light, no.”
“Oh wow, I didn’t know that. auction Thank you so much for letting me know.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Aren’t you getting hungry? wizard Do you want some melted snow?”
It was to the point that one would wonder whether she really was the most noble lady of this continent or not.
We shared a few banters without an end. adapt Perhaps it was to keep ourselves sane in this excruciating weather and make sure the other person was still conscious, but it wasn’t difficult because Princess Estelle was, objectively speaking, an easy person to talk to.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Who says that?”
“It’s to survive. crystal And apparently, blood is not that bad to drink.”
“Ugh… How do you drink that?”
“You can have that, Saintess, and give me some of the leftover blood.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
From time to time, Estelle handed over food from behind. artist They were mainly squirrel meat and frozen fruits, but with all things considered, they were a decent source of energy.
“Someone richer than me.”
Like that, we traversed across the Steel Archipelago.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
Sometimes, we almost got caught by the familiars who were searching for us, but we pretended to be a dead sheep that was half-buried in the snow to fool them.
During the day, we dug a hole inside the snow and slept together while using the sheepskin as a blanket, and followed the stars at night to travel further and further north.
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“R, right?”
“Nothing new.”
“…A bit, too close, aren’t we?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Saintess. adopt Look…”
It was when we started to get used to touching each other’s skin 24 hours a day.
“I saw it.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
She muttered in a soft voice.

Estelle also widened her eyes after finding something down the snowy valley.
“Mages. alien They… don’t look like they’re looking for us.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
At the bottom of the hill, a few mages were doing something alongside their familiars.
“Considering how heavy their bums are, it must be something pretty important for them to be here as a group.”
“Are you going to attack them?”
Giant ice golems were carrying around rocks, and manifested spirits were digging the ground. apple There was even a chimera, but it seemed to be serving as a scout rather than as a part of the digging crew.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
I knew what they were doing there.
I held myself back for a bit.
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
They were the ones trying to excavate the remains of the Titans. arch Their goal was to combine as many actual bones as possible and cover the rest with artificial flesh and metal, and for that to happen, they needed to acquire as many remains as possible.
The only issue was that I was in the company of the powerless Estelle. arrow It would have been a different story if I was alone, but defeating the excavators with Estelle hanging on my back wouldn’t be easy.
“Hmm…”
“No. anxiety Let’s move on. academy There’s no need to cause a commotion. action Right now, keeping you safe is my priority.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“The sun is starting to rise. galaxy We might draw their eyes if we go any further than this. arctic Let’s dig a hole around here.”
“Anything I can help you with?”
Digging holes was solely up to me. orbit I wrapped her body with sheepskin and quickly dug a hole.
Estelle let out a moody grunt. audit I was carrying her on my back so I couldn’t see her face, but it wasn’t hard to imagine the look on her face just by hearing her voice.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
Estelle, without her sacred powers, was no different from a civilian. palette In other words, she had zero resistance to the cold unlike me, a knight.
“Just watch. altitude What if you get frostbites?”
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
After covering my hands with some of the heat from Claiomh Solais, I continued increasing the size of the hole. amber Meanwhile, Estelle put the snow that melted during the process into a water bottle.
The resulting snow cave was barely big enough for Estelle and I to lie down in. riddle I could make it bigger, but making it bigger than this would just increase the risk of us being discovered by the pursuers.
Besides, it wasn’t like I was digging the hole with nothing but my bare hands.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
These past few days, we were sleeping together in the sheepskin sleeping bag, but it seemed that she still wasn’t fully used to it yet.
Well, no matter what we did when we were awake, we would still probably give each other a tight hug in our sleep while desperately craving warmth. canvas There was no room for embarrassment when we were close to losing our lives from the cold.
First off, I shoved the sheepskin inside the hole and went in first to create enough space inside. attic Estelle followed through afterward. beacon She poked her face up through the hole towards my chest with an awkward smile on her face.
“Let’s go in.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“It’s all frozen and tough, but you should still have some of this.”
“Okay. timber Do you want some too, Junior?”
Inside the snow cave where the only source of light was the faint ray of light seeping in from the entrance, we each held onto a piece of frozen meat with less than 10 centimeters between us.
“Give me a small piece.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
I engraved a Rune of the Sun onto the meat that was handed over by Estelle. advance Kenaz was better when cooking meat, but that would likely create a fire.
“Give it to me. aluminum I can warm it back up.”
“Ugh… It’s frozen and tough.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“It’s hot so don’t touch it. afford Just open your mouth.”
-Tchiiii!
The lamb slowly started to grizzle once the rune was carved into it. accent The ice around the meat melted into water as oil began to drip from it. atomic I blew on it a few times before feeding her.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
-Nom.
She seemed surprised even though she had already seen it quite a few times. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
“Ahh…”
Estelle appeared slightly embarrassed but before long, she opened her mouth like a baby bird getting fed by its mother.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“It’s delicious. amber You should have some too, Junior.”
This cold weather must have put a high toll on her stamina, and yet she was doing her best not to show it which was incredible.
Nom nom. atlas A faint smile appeared on her lips as she chewed on the warm piece of meat. aluminum She was evidently in a slightly better mood after having some protein.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Yeah yeah.”
We enjoyed a small yet satisfying meal.

“Tonight, we will go all the way around the mages. acoustic Soon, we should be able to see a frozen path connecting to the Dingle Peninsula, and we will be set after crossing it.”
In the game, near the end of the Tower of Mages episode, all that was shared was that the mages ran away after discarding the Tower, but we managed to find the route they used in the last iteration.
The mages of the Tower had gotten on a sled at the northern peak of Steel Archipelago and traveled to Dingle Peninsula down the frozen path.
It wasn’t me who had come up with this escape path.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
They were probably making the same preparations again in this iteration.
Right as I was considering the details of tonight’s plan, I found Estelle looking into my eyes. airport Even though it was dark all around us, I could still see that her usual smile was no longer on her face and that there was a rather indifferent look on it instead.
“…”
“What’s wrong?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Do you not regret it, Junior? action You came all the way here and you’re going through so much trouble just to save me.”
“Nope.”
“Nothing. accent I was just thinking how I’m more of a nuisance than I thought.”
“Now is not the time to feel guilty or down.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Do you need a reason to save people?” agent I replied.
“Why?”
“Umm… Are you the type of person that feels satisfaction from that?”
Of course not. canvas Do you have any idea how important of a person you are?
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“That’s true too.”
“Like, most people wouldn’t put their lives on the line to do something good. absorb If that was the majority, this world would have been a utopia.”
“Who wouldn’t?”
Why would I feel bad after doing something good?
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
I slowly continued my sentence.
Something I realized recently was that I seemed to be on the fairly good side. absorb Everyone, including Master, was so busy trying to praise me as a hero after all.
“But I have no regrets. antenna Because I made the right decision.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Wow…”
“I was aware of someone else’s misfortune and had the power to resolve it. acquire That’s why I did it.”
There were probably a lot of reasons not to. acid It was dangerous and difficult, and I could get hurt. arctic If one thought about it, there were more reasons against doing something good than reasons for it.
“As long as there’s one reason why you have to do something good, isn’t that more than enough already?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
Her eyes blinked in the darkness, like an ornithologist who found an extinct bird.
“Umm… isn’t it usually the other way around?”
“I’m not sure about lying, but a lot of people usually tell the truth and make authentic expressions in front of me.”
“I… can tell if someone is telling the truth.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
‘It must be because they’re afraid of the gods to tell a lie in front of the Saintess,’ she added with a bitter smile on her face. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.
“I was just shocked… that there could be such a genuine person in this world.”
“Really? sphere That kind of sounds like, ‘Which comes first; the chicken or the egg’.”
“So I can tell when someone is being genuine with their words. matrix Thanks to that, I can also somewhat tell if someone is lying or not.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“That’s incredible. acoustic Seriously.”
“No, it is. acoustic It’s my first time seeing someone as incredible as you.”
“It’s not as great as you are making it out to be.”
As if she was sincerely impressed, Estelle muttered to herself in a whisper.

“Haa… Every good man usually has a partner already though.”
“You are embarrassing me now.”

“Ehh?”
“Well… There are two candidates.”
“So you do have a goalkeeper, huh?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Hmm? apron What did I say?”
“But having a goalkeeper doesn’t mean I can’t score, right?”
Estelle said with an adorable smile on her face.
“How can you say something like that as the saintess?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“And what do you think that means?”
“Kuhum…”
“Like, a goalkeeper and whatnot…” This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
She pushed her face even closer and said that with a bewitching smile on her face. alien As expected of sisters… They were similar.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Don’t wanna~. beacon I don’t wanna~. portal Your reactions are so cute~.”
“Please! agent No more of that coquettish voice! canvas It’s not good for my heart!”
“Junior Korin. altitude You are quite cute aren’t you~?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“It would have been a lot different if I had recovered my sacred energy at the very least.”
Back in the game, although Estelle herself was incredibly powerful, she was not someone who could be invited to the party.
“You’re right.”
She was more like a witch than a saintess at this point! adapt Estelle continued teasing me a bit more before heaving a deep sigh.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“By the way, you said your sacred energy was sealed, right? ability It’s already been 4 days since we ran away from the Tower though. artist Can you still not use it?”
“…Yeah. legend I can faintly feel it being recovered, but even that is being sucked out.”
The only assistance you could get from her was through her temporary buff. apple Having that buff alone would have changed a lot of things already – that was how overpowered she was.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
I had no idea what the principle behind her loss of power was because both in the game and in the last iteration, her role was just that of a damsel in distress.
Even though it was a long time ago, she was still a descendant of Balor and Dagda, and the only one who had gone through the rare atavism to have a thicker concentration of the blood of the Titans and the King of Gods.
That indeed was strange. athlete From what I knew, Estelle’s sacred energy was the energy left behind by the gods, which she could gather and use at will as the one and only half-Danann left behind in this world.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Hnn? ability I had a proper fight against the Tower Lord. airport I lost because I ended up using all my sacred energy.”
“But then, it wouldn’t make sense that you got captured by the Tower Lord, right? shadow They wouldn’t have had the Holy Grail back then.”
“They must have done something to me with the Holy Grail.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
That was strange. armor Was the Saintess’ power not sealed during the escort?
“Nn?”
“Huh?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“…”
“I was at the Tower when I woke up, and that was when I couldn’t use it.”
“Let me ask something. abstract When was it, that you couldn’t use your sacred energy?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
Formation Expert, Kang Ryun. attic He had forced Hua Ran to eat a piece of wood from a peach tree, which was detrimental to Jiangshis, to weaken her.
In other words, they must have done something to Estelle after she arrived at the Tower of Mages.
Something similar could have been done to Estelle.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“Oh right, Junior. atomic I don’t know why, but it feels like I’m getting some warm sacred energy back after meeting you. aspect Is this because of your ‘Sun’?”
The clues she was sharing were extremely hard for me to understand.
But if they put it in her food, it didn’t make sense that Estelle didn’t notice it, and how was it that her powers were still weakened and sealed even though it had already been several days since we left the Tower?
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“…What is it?”
I came up with a hypothesis, but there was still the question of ‘How’.
“No. abstract It’s nothing.”
How was the Tower of Mages sealing Estelle’s sacred energy? athlete In fact, did the Tower even have the means to seal sacred energy? artist Wasn’t that something that only the New Faith used when dealing with priests who committed heavy crimes… Ah.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
In a situation where our life depended on every passing second, there was no time to quarrel with or persuade her.

‘It would be better to tell her once everything is over.’
Besides, it was questionable whether saying it now in this situation would be correct or not. amateur This would inevitably lead to a quarrel which could potentially create a crack between the two of us.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
Roars were followed by the sound of clashing metal and screams.
The fourth morning came to an end as the night slowly started to approach. audit We woke up from our sleep before it was time due to a sudden commotion outside.
-Wararararaara…!
-S, stop them! zenith Don’t…!
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
It was clear who one of them was – they were the mages from the Tower that we witnessed at the bottom of the hill. galaxy The question, however, was the ones attacking those mages.
“J, junior? arch What’s going on?”
“Ugh…” Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
“…It’s a fight. artist Who are they fighting though?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
—!!
It was a long, loud, and bloody battle.
Estelle anxiously shrunk her shoulders as the two of us instinctively killed the sound of our breath.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
-Woof! acoustic Woof! alert Aoouuuh!
A dog… no, it was bigger than that; more like a wolf if anything. autumn Did one of the mages have a wolf or a dog familiar?
There were a series of questions but it was soon time to settle that line of thought. alert The battle seemed to be over, as something started to approach us from a distance.
Who is it? advance An ally? palette No, but how and why would one of our allies make their way here?
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
Big.
The sound of the footsteps wasn’t that loud due to the snow, but I could tell from the sound of each of their steps that it wasn’t a normal human. orbit Besides…
-Clomp! atom Clomp!
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
-Clomp! admire Clomp!
-Kung!
-Clomp! accent Clomp!
It wasn’t just one—
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
With all my senses, I focused on what was going on outside the cave. athlete Every sensor in my body was warning me of the incoming danger.
‘What was that?! alert What was that sound?!’
I blocked her mouth but I was also flustered by that bizarre thud. antique How could such a sound be made in this field of snow? harbor How big were they…? album Did they finish reviving the Titans? riddle If not, how could…
Did they find us? apple Otherwise, there would be no reason for them to climb this way after just fighting the mages…
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
That same bark echoed once again.
-Woof!
“Junior. matrix Look…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
-…
Without her having to say it, I was already looking at the entrance of the cave where her eyes were facing.
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
“…”
Clear blue eyes and a tall nose. riddle Its huge and horrifying teeth were revealed with a smirk.
My eyes met with the beast that was poking its head into the cave.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
That there was no dog. orbit It was a wolf… a Dire Wolf that resided in the Northern Kingdom at that.
“It saw us, didn’t it?”
“…Yeah.”
“Fuu…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 161: Estelle Hadassa El Rath (3) by Indra Translations.
The snow cave’s ceiling crumbled as something snatched us from above.
-Kwaang!
