Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3)
According to the original plot, after meeting John Doe, the ❰Murderer of the City of Fog❱ – an important character who appeared at the latter stages of the 1st Arc, Marie would attack her roommate and go berserk.
The members of the previous iteration were Park Sihu, Yuel the Druid, Dorron the Mercenary, the Golem User Kranel and me. beacon It was a 5-man party.
In the previous iteration, we had been waiting underneath Marie and Isabelle’s dormitory immediately after the event so we were able to respond in time, but Park Sihu had intentionally let go of her.

But what about now?
All the freshmen members were pretty much unable to fight.
Thanks to having hidden pieces and the game knowledge, Park Sihu and I were fully prepared and could defeat Marie even without the help of Alicia, who was a strong early-game character.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
The Golem User Kranel was also practically non-existent because the most important golem core had been broken.
And the saddest part was that I was the one who caused everything. arch But honestly, who could have guessed that an event that was supposed to start 3 weeks later would be happening this early?
Alicia wasn’t an option. acid Her bones were crushed because of my eight trigram palm strike, so she would have trouble even running.
There wasn’t much time. attic I had to gather people as soon as possible.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
I did think about Hua Ran for a second, but leaving aside whether it was even possible to persuade her or not, I wasn’t confident in predicting how things would turn out if she was to join the party.
If Hua Ran’s restrictions were to be broken during the fight against the awakened Marie, then that would immediately lead to ‘Game Over’. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
The only ones that could somewhat move were Yuel the Druid and the mercenary, Dorron Warsky.

Power too big to control would only be a hindrance.
Dorron, who was training by himself at the very corner of the training rooms, threw me a glance before minding his own business again.
– Shhiiik…! aluminum Booboom!
“Hello.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“It is normal to remember the names of every capable person of the Academy.”
“Hmm… I don’t remember telling you my name though.”
“What is it? arch Korin Lork.”
With one glance, he manipulated the swords as they fiercely shredded the target apart. silence I turned to the flying swords and noticed that the three magic swords that I had destroyed were nowhere to be seen.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“I want to hire you as a mercenary.”
“50% down payment. audit I can take an item as a mortgage if you don’t have money.”
The fight at the hunting grounds appeared to have left quite an impression. voyage It seemed that Dorron had looked up my name in his own time.
That was what I was waiting for. adopt I immediately took out the Soul Dust that I got by letting Sebancia Duke ascend in peace at the library.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“It’s for the mortgage. shadow Unique Grade Soul Dust. galaxy Not a single speck of the soul lost due to a fight. apron A 100% pure and perfect item.”
“This…”
“May I ask what you are after, Boss?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“And how difficult would it be?”
“Unique Grade.”
“We will be looking for one person. antique Me, you and the other party members will have to subjugate that person without killing her.”
Dorron changed his attitude in an instant, which was a plus considering how easy it was to talk to him.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“If you’re scared, you can use only the flying swords at a safe distance.”
He clicked his tongue as if that was absurd, but he didn’t turn the offer down straight away.
“Crazy.”
“The rule for mercenaries is to not bother with hopeless battles.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“All you have to do is occasionally draw the eyes of the enemy and act as a sub-dps. shadow I’m not expecting anything more than that from a mercenary.”

Yes. sphere I did, because I was the one who broke them. aspect The only remaining magic swords were a normal magic sword that had no special abilities and the heavy iron sword which could only strike down from above.
“You see, I only have two swords left. admire You should know that better than anyone else.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
It was easy to form a party with Dorron Warsky. artist All we had to do was give him money.
“I’ll sell the mortgage if I have to so don’t worry.”
“Good. atom The price would be 20 gold coins. timber If you can’t pay the money…”
However, he was a mercenary. amber Trying to use him more than the ‘money’s worth’ would always lead to a backlash. atom A firm line had to be drawn to make use of him.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
Dorron didn’t ask anything else. album He didn’t ask who the Unique Grade was, nor raise any doubt on where I obtained that information.
“What a nice employer to have.”
He was someone who considered following the given commands without bothering about anything else. acoustic The code of mercenaries.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
Most of the locations of the NPCs in the game were fixed. zenith It was to make sure players didn’t have to go around everywhere when looking for specific NPCs, but there was a particular reason behind them in this real world.

After deciding to meet at the entrance of the hunting grounds in 2 hours time, I looked for the next target.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“You mean you want me to cooperate?”
‘Papers are disgusting! avalanche Nature is the best!’ Even though that was what the druids screamed out all the time, there was a reason why Yuel was always at the library filled with papers.
An example was the Druid of the Avelorn Forest, Yuel. amber She spent most of her time at the library.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
As someone who could read the aura of nature, she must have realized how pathetic my aura and my mana was. ability She must have found it laughable for someone as weak as me to suddenly ask for cooperation on defeating a Unique Grade demi-human.
“…Why should I?”
“Please.”
The girl with a light green shade of hair asked an obvious question with a discontent look on her face.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“That’s your traditional alphabet, right? beacon The letters that were lost when Avelorn was burned down by demonic beasts.”
“!!!”
“Ogham Alphabet.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“I heard of the great fire at the Avelorn Forest a year ago, and why else would a druid from that forest suddenly come to Merkarva Academy?”
“You… How did you…?!”
I told her the rest was easy to deduce, and Yuel was convinced despite the uncomfortable look in her eyes.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
She was from the ancient tribe that detested papers for being made by cutting wood, with only one person from the generation allowed to know about the traditional alphabets.
During the attack of the demonic beasts, the previous druid in charge had been killed and the alphabets that were carved on the walls were also all lost due to the fire.
“I’ve read something related to that. arch I can’t really remember the title of that book but…”
The reason Yuel, the Druid of the Avelorn Forest, had come to Merkarva Academy was in hopes that its Great Library with so many pieces of information would have some clues about the Ogham letters.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“What a shrewd person…”
I grinned while tapping on my head. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.
“It’s all in my head.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
Yuel frowned after understanding my words.
I said while writing down an Ogham letter as Yuel quickly wrote that down on her notepad with a pale face. arcade Just by looking at how she was using a paper notepad as a druid who befriended nature, it was extremely clear how desperate she was.
“ᚑ (Onn). abandon I think that’s enough for the proof. galaxy Right?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
By the way, the book I read was called 〚Exploring the Wild by the Adventurer, Vorahlmer〛which was written 80 years ago. antenna Due to introducing the culture of pagans, the Old Faith banned it as a taboo and this Great Library was thus the only place that possessed a copy of that book.
In the game, it was something that was found by progressing the rapport event with Yuel, so it would take a long time for her to find it by herself.
“More…”

Her face that was eager for more letters gave off her desperation.
“It’s… a promise.”
“Yeah. legend I’m not asking for much either. anxiety I’ll do all the dangerous stuff myself so just support me from the back.”
“You don’t need to be in a hurry. academy I’ll tell you everything once this is over.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
The sub-dps and the support were all in place. orbit The only things that now had to be done was fill up the numbers – so we could stand our ground during the 1st phase.
I left the library after making a promise with Yuel.
“Can you say that one more time?”

The two people who loved going to the training rooms these days – those owls who were slowly enticing Kranel Luden into their grasp were shocked after hearing my words.

Grade 3 Knight, Jaeger Hinzpeter.

Grade 5 Mage, Lark Buhgman.
“I’m looking for a party. abstract It’s difficult, low reward, extremely dangerous and we might even die against a strong Unique Grade demon, but we can gain tremendous honor and recognition if we succeed.”
These guys that I knew from way back were just side characters and single-time villains whose roles were preassigned by the main scenario back when it was a game, but now they were different.
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
The boy wearing glasses with unkempt hair and the typical delinquent-looking guy with short hair turned to each other.
People that loved efficiency were like this – they would use a calculator to calculate their chance of victory and the efficiency, to see what would be the most beneficial for them.
“…”

“Let’s do it.”
“That sounds super retarded but…”
However, the true alpha men were different.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
When we arrived at the forest in time, the sun had already set over the horizon, and the woods with not a single presence of students was as dark and unfathomable as the abyss.
Because alphas never care.
That was why humanity was able to conquer the South Pole.

Jaeger, Lark, Dorron and Yuel had each prepared themselves for the upcoming fight.
“Is she really in this forest?”
“Senior Marie, right?”
“Boss. palette I know what the goal is, but how are we going to find her?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“We don’t need to look for her ourselves. legend We can just ask. alert Right?”
“…Seriously. anchor How do you know so much?”
It would take years for us to search through this whole forest with just the five of us. harbor That obviously wasn’t my plan.
This was our second conversation. alien With a puzzled look on her face that showed her befuddlement, the druid lowered the antique staff onto the ground and closed her eyes.

Even though the druids were known to use the power of the forest for themselves, this was nothing like magic where they had to spend their own mana. harbor They were the protectors of the forest that grew up together with nature. harbor A single sincere request from them was able to move the forest.
“O spirits.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
Although this wasn’t a part of the game, we had greatly relied on her in the previous iteration.
“Yes. timber I beg you. crystal Please find her. artist Please lead us to her.”
In the dead of the night, the forest greatly fluctuated. meadow Judging based on the cheerful reactions of Lark and Jaeger, it seemed that many spirits of the forest were responding to Yuel’s call.
Most of the spirits of the forest were low-grade elementals. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com. alien They were useless in battles but when it came to searches, their overwhelming numbers were incredibly overpowered.

“I found her. abstract At the depths of the forest… where the demonic beasts are. aspect That’s where she is.”
No-one was able to run away from the eyes of a druid in the forest.
As long as we were in the forest, druids were pretty much almighty. agent This was why I had taken in Yuel as the support.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
Where the demonic beasts are, huh… I had a rough idea of why she would be there, but Marie’s instincts should be telling her that their blood wasn’t enough.
– Kiieeeekk—!
I trusted myself. crystal There was enough evidence to support my hypothesis, and that was why I was shoving my head into such a dangerous matter.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“Dude. legend This…”
Jaeger seemed to have noticed it as well and glanced at everyone while inquiring with his gaze whether his prediction was correct or not.
A chilly howl echoed across the woods. silence The demonic beasts of the hunting grounds were creating a ruckus even though it was rather late at night.
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“It is not any different for the demonic beasts.”
“Have you seen anything like this, Dorron?”
“A few times. sphere There is only one reason why predators would be terrified.”
“……The spirits are frightened.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
– The appearance of an even bigger predator.
It was natural for them to be scared and terrified. adapt That wasn’t something as simple as powerlessness and fear towards a stronger being.
The demonic beasts at the top of the food chain in the forest were so horrified by the appearance of the powerful being that they were wailing in fear.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
– Clomp clomp!
– Clomp clomp!
The demonic aura exuding out of Unique Grade demons – those unfathomable monsters – had something like the fear-inducing aura of the dragon race.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
Those shrieks of the beasts subsided more as we approached the center of the forest. arena From fear to powerlessness, and from powerlessness to obedience. arena Such was the way of the ecosystem.
In an open plot of land with dozens of demonic beasts stood a girl that appeared extremely out of place.
– Krrghk! abstract Kurrgk!
At one point, the only source of sound became the rustling leaves beneath our feet, and that was when our eyes spotted something different.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
Her water-coloured hair that used to be both neat and tidy was tainted with blood and her everlasting smile was replaced by stiff clots of blood.
An owlbear had its neck bitten by the girl who was less than a quarter of its size, but was staying still without even dreaming of fighting back.
– Kuruk, kurrugk…!
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 22: Marie Dunareff (3) by Indra Translations.
“Hiik…”
A scene that was completely outside of his expectation made Lark take a few steps back in horror.
The fangs that were digging in through the thick leather around the neck formed a pathway for a one-sided blood transfusion. arctic Despite being aware that it will be sucked dry till death, the owlbear and the demonic beasts surrounding them were unable to dare fight back.
Those beasts had their brutality repressed by the demonic aura of a Unique Grade, and retaliation wasn’t even an option for them.
