Chapter 247: World Tree (4)
The leader of the Axehead Tribe tilted his head as if he didn’t catch what I said, but I did not miss the slight twitch of his lips.
“W… What?”
“Say ‘Tates is a son of a bitch.’ Come on.”
“‘Tates is a son of a bitch.’ Say it.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“What’s wrong? afford What’s so hard about saying that one sentence? apron It will show us you are not a follower of Tates Valtazar.”
“L, listen… That’s not a cultured expression…”
“Ha, haha… What… are you saying…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Those that escaped all the way to the walls were obviously there because they hated Valtazar, and the rest remained because they were a follower and decided to obey him.
“What? armor Are you telling me Tates Valtazar is not a son of a bitch? meadow Of course he is! adjust Come on – say it! alpha Do it right now!”
The people from the kingdom might not show any averse reaction to what I said, but there had to be a strong response from the northerners.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
As such, their perception of Tates would be in complete contrast depending on whether they were a follower or not.
Tates was a living god – he reigned above them as a god and was the leader of the north. athlete Half the valkyries acknowledged him and were revering him as god, and the northerners were obviously aware of that.
To the non-followers, Tates was just a son of a bitch trying to destroy the world hoping for a new world, and for followers of Tates, he was the god of the new world.

“U, ughh… Uhh…”
They immediately unsheathed their swords and raised their axes, practically revealing themselves. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
– Cling!
“Say ‘Tates Valtazar is a damned son of a bitch!!’ Why can’t you say it!?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Kill them all!”
The man in the lead dashed forward with the ax in hand. academy Until the very end, he couldn’t say, ‘Tates is a son of a bitch’ and instead leaped forward, swinging down his ax.
Ah dang it. alert Of course.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Huhp…!”
However, his ax was too slow for it to reach my neck, and my spear pierced through his throat before he could even perceive it.
It resulted in a slight commotion, but it didn’t take us long to suppress them.
“Wipe them out,” I ordered.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“…That would have been dangerous.”
“They were northern tribes under Valtazar. adopt They tried to join us pretending to be allies.”
“They’re probably doing something similar on all fronts.”
“Did you fight? legend Against people?” asked Estelle after arriving nearby with the main group, alongside Hua Ran and Alicia.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
They would probably stay quiet and lay low for the time being, because our numbers were much more than theirs.
“How did you know they were enemies?” she asked.
However, that won’t stay the same after more northern tribes join our ranks. amateur They might suddenly turn their ax heads at us when we were at a geographical disadvantage.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Ah~ I see. alpha That is certainly something the enemies won’t be able to say in fear of blasphemy.”
“There’s no guarantee it would work, but when there’s a big group trying to join us, we could force all of them to say it and a few won’t be able to.”
When I told her my secret strategy, she replied with a smile.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
That was when we could define that entire group as an enemy.
“Yeah. echo I will convey that to the other groups. afford Hopefully there won’t be any issues with our pigeons.”
“It’s an old-fashioned method, but it would work well especially in this kind of setting.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Thanks for your work. alien You can fall back now,” said Estelle. acid “We will have someone else at the lead now…”
“No. aluminum I’ll do it.”
It was pitch black here, and it was hard to tell whether the pigeons would be able to successfully deliver the message or not.
“Korin-dongsaeng?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
And that had to be my job. ability I didn’t want to rely on the girls when it came to killing people as much as possible.
“Can you continue staying with Hua Ran and Alicia? amber I can stay at the front>”
The roles were completely different for those at the front and those at the center. timber At the front, we would have to continue fighting against groups like this and killing them.

Estelle was about to volunteer to join but seemed to decide against it. admire She was the most important figure in our army, and it would naturally be hard for her to step up to the front.
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Let’s keep moving forward. sphere We have to quickly increase our numbers.”
Even if we accidentally took in a wrong group, we had to be so big that they couldn’t possibly dream of doing anything funny.
At times, we found a bunch of corpses that were brutally murdered, as well as groups of soldiers from the kingdom and northerners that were fighting against Shadow Demons. zenith Out of those, we found allies and enemies.
We continued moving forward, and we came across several more groups.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Kuhk…! legend Kill me!”
Around 2 out of 10 groups that we came across were enemies. canvas Rather than trying to hide in our ranks and cause insurmountable damage, it appeared that their goal was to steal information and cause confusion in our army.
From the groups we encountered, there was a higher ratio of allies than enemies.
“They’re enemies! arctic Wipe them out!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“What should we do sir?”
As expected of northerners, they refused to reply when we asked them about the enemy formations and information.
For them, a valiant death was the road to paradise, and their belief would have been enhanced even further after coming across a living god.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Mercy for enemies was a betrayal to allies.
I didn’t hesitate to kill them. amber Although human lives were precious, I wasn’t a blind humanist who couldn’t differentiate between allies and enemies during a war.
“Cut his head off.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
To be fair, they weren’t wrong. orbit If Valtazar reopened the era of gods, the original paradise, Tir na Nog, and spiritual worlds like Valhalla would be brought back with his powers.
“These guys don’t stop coming though. aspect They’re putting their lives on the line for this.”
“It’s because they believe there is an afterlife prepared for them.” Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.

Because of that, the enemies seemed to have no fear of death.
‘It’s taking a toll on us already.’
Although I didn’t know much about the powers of gods, I knew he had the power to promise afterlife to the souls of the dead.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Soon, we came across a split path.
“Well, I guess I’m also like them, risking my life to save the world.”
Having an enemy that was willing to throw away their current lives in expectation of the afterlife was really quite tedious.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
We were on our way going up the largest root, and we had to stop after seeing a sudden increase in roots.
Hearing the scout, we immediately pulled out our weapons and readied ourselves.
“Sir Korin! afford There’s a group in the distance!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Whether it be Shadow Demons or troops under Valtazar, constant streams of battles was building fatigue in our army. athlete I hoped the group in front of us wasn’t going to be yet another enemy.
“Fuu… Hope it’s not another enemy.”
“Student Korin?”
“Aht? alert Korin?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Thankfully, what we soon heard was a familiar voice.
The group we met was the combined troops of northerners and the kingdom’s army, which included Lady Josephine, Kranel and Yuel.
“Have some tea.”
****
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“How were things on your end, Professor?”
“Ah, thank you.”
We stopped our army for the time being after encountering Lady Josephine’s group, and I received the tea she made. august Because of the sheer number of mages in our army, it was quite easy to light fires and cook food.
“It was chaotic,” she replied. agent “Especially because we came across Valtazar’s subordinates pretending to be allies.”

“I remembered everyone.”
“Sorry?”
“You too huh… How did you tell them apart?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“I remembered the faces of all the leaders and vice leaders of the northern tribes in our expedition. armor So I knew it was an enemy when it was only strangers.”
How is that even possible? album I asked with my eyes but Lady Josephine simply pushed the frames of her glasses up with her finger.
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Master is tracking another root with Marie.”
She was much more intellectual than someone like me, so I guess it was possible if that’s what she was saying. armor I decided not to doubt anyone in the group that came with her.
“By the way, what happened to the Chairman?”
“I see.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Korin-dongsaeeeenggg!”
The world was devoid of light and it was hard to tell the time, but technically it was around midnight so we decided to set up our tents and spend the night.
Like that, we stopped advancing and took a break while catching up.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
I wondered when this noona, Estelle, would stop clinging onto me.
“Ah please! Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com. august Stop yelling in my ears.”
“Hing~ You’re so cold…”
“What is it?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
When I turned my skeptical eyes towards her, Estelle pouted and grumbled.
“…”
“Do you want to eat dinner in my tent?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Are you not?”
“Maybe a little bit,” she replied before quickly rewording herself. anchor “… I mean, it’s cold. timber It’ll be warmer in my tent.”
“You’re looking at me as if I’m someone planning to do something lewd.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“We don’t have enough tents either. aluminum Let’s use the same one.”
“Ah… r, really?”
“Sure.” zenith It was quite obvious, but I agreed nonetheless.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“I am the Saintess and the Princess, after all.”
“Sure thing! atomic Come with me!”
Walking down the dark encampment, we arrived at Estelle’s tent.
“It’s a lot more luxurious than I imagined.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“It’s far from practicality, but a member of the royal family has to be distinguished no matter where they go. arcade You would have to get used to this too, Korin-dongsaeng.”
There was a large rug of wolf hide on the ground, as well as a thick blanket of duck feathers. galaxy On top of that, even her basin of water was made in gold.
Although we were on an expedition, just like how the tent of a normal soldier was different from that of an executive officer, Estelle’s tent was luxurious beyond belief as the fundamental symbol and commander of the army.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
In the last iteration, Park Sihu and I would often share the same tent.
“Well… I do have a similar experience.”
As a master of all sorts of magic spells, he was able to make up the best environment no matter where we were, and we didn’t lack anything thanks to his inventory.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
The tent was extravagant, but the same didn’t apply for food.
Now that I think about it, this was my first time having a fully native experience on the field for such a long time.
Using potatoes, emergency ration food including jerkies and some other ingredients, we made the typical war stew and shared it while discussing future plans.
“How do you think this war will span out?” anchor Estelle asked.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“It sounds like you have some doubts.”
“Who knows. aluminum Logically speaking, it would be us attacking the wells and Valtazar trying to defend them.”
“Until now, I had been thinking that I was the one leading the big picture.”

After coming back in time, I had planned and prepared countless things.
I saved Marie, destroyed the plans around Hua Ran, crumbled the Tower of Mages and the Old Faith, and took in a portion of the northerners.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Even what happened today. wizard I had never imagined Valtazar to have such abilities. august Leaving aside the World Tree, this world without light was certainly going completely against our expectations.”
From the time he didn’t attack Master, to the border city and the haste retreat of the Frost Giant.
And yet this big picture had begun to twist and distort, and now, it felt like it had been swallowed into the enemy’s big picture.
Looking back at what I had achieved in the past 3 years, all I could say was that they had been fantastic. acoustic They were much better than what I was able to do with Park Sihu in the last iteration.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Was it me that was drawing a big picture and continuing with it? portal Or were we playing in the hands of Tates?
“So even you have these meaningless worries, dongsaeng!”
Seeing me ponder to myself, Estelle smiled.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Estelle suddenly shoved her spoon into my mouth. afford With an enticing smile in her eyes, she started rotating the spoon in my mouth.
The deep flavor of the stew permeated through my mouth, as she played around with the spoon as if it were a tongue.
“Kuhum…!”
“Huh? …Hahp!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“You’ve led us very well until this point. advance You bartered with people, made shrewd plans and sometimes went head-first.”
“Ububup?”
“Throw away those worries.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
The people around me were really generous with their evaluations of me. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com. audit Even aside from the actions that I had done, I knew how hard it is to fully trust someone else so I was all the more grateful.
– Us being here is the proof that your hard work has been meaningful.
“…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Even though I wasn’t even that amazing of a person, oddly enough, they trusted me a lot and depended on me.
“Un. atomic I’m sure you will save everyone, dongsaeng. matrix You will save the world. sphere I believe so.”
“Then… I guess there’s no choice but to do it.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Honestly, it’s a bit spooky when she tries to talk me into becoming the next gods in line, but she was definitely a reassuring ally to have.
Just because of her trust in me, she turned away from the religion she had been believing in her whole life, crushed the pope’s head and united the religions into one.
Seriously, she wasn’t normal by any means either.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Sure. galaxy Why not.”
Here she was again, trying to tease me. voyage She kept pretending to be an adult and trying to tease whenever possible.
“Shall we sleep on the same bed then~”
“Let’s go to bed. amateur It’s probably going to be noisy, but let’s try to preserve our stamina as much as we can.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Kyaak?!”
That was why I played along with her. sphere It was also… because I was grateful for what she said.
“Huh?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Estelle couldn’t calm down even when she was laid down on the soft blankets of the bed.
“Higik… Hugik…!”
I carried her like the princess she was and headed straight to the bed.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Even though she was the one constantly teasing me, she was a coward when push actually came to shove.
Really? anchor Are you serious? orbit Her eyes seemed to be asking me, as her lips opened and closed like a goldfish.
“K, Korin-dongsaeng?”
“Well then…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Placing my finger on her lips, I whispered with a grin.
“…!”
“Shh…”
“Call me oppa for tonight.”

Estelle was trembling on the bed, not knowing what to say.
“I promise we’ll just be holding hands.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
****
After teasing her like that for about an hour, I left the tent.
I went on the bed and laid myself down next to the stiff girl. august This was my time to teach her a lesson.
Fuu~ I commended myself for holding myself back.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
The Shadow Demons came pouring out regardless of the time, and at times, we had to defeat a group of northerners pretending to be allies.
The battle continued throughout the night.
There were a few occasions where we were joined by our actual allies and had to restructure our army, but all in all, everything went smoothly with no real threats.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Our expedition army with one sole purpose was able to cover for the building fatigue and losses by the sheer power of numbers.
This was the power of numbers.
Power of an army.

“Everyone. acid Wake up! beacon It’s morning!”
To be fair, we had so many knights and mages that anything seemed possible.
That was how powerful it was to be regrouped as one after overcoming chaos and confusion. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
– Ughh… It’s still dark…
– Are you sure it’s morning already?
The alarm rang across the encampment as soldiers woke each other up. voyage But as expected, it was rare to find anyone that became used to this kind of morning already.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Even though it was supposed to be in the middle of broad daylight, the world was still dark. abandon It felt like our sense of time was malfunctioning, but we still had a reliable clock.
“We should be able to receive supplies from above. harbor I made a signal with our campfires. beacon With this—”
“Can we not travel in the sky?”
“I did see a Hresvelgr, but the tree tried to wrap it up with its roots when it got too close.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“In any case, it really is dark.”
As they said, humans were adaptable animals. apron Despite the unimaginable event of the light vanishing from the world, everyone was trying their best to adapt to the new change.
“Well no shit. adopt There’s no light. artist Of course it’s dark.”
“No, I mean… It’s like there’s a lid on top of us…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
Action spoke more than words. apple I threw the spear high into the air, and the Silver Spear leaving a trail of sunlight soared into the sky…
“Huh, Sir Korin?”
“What are you planning to do?”
That was when I overheard a soldier’s comment that I could not ignore. wizard Skeptical, I quickly engraved the Rune of the Sun on my Silver Spear.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“Mages! apple Light up the sky!!”
And stopped somewhere. anxiety The ambient lighting of the spear soon revealed the ‘tree bark’ that it was piercing through.
– Kajik!
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“What…”
“Huh?”
The mages quickly responded by shooting light spells into the air. apron They had been holding their magic back as much as possible to save mana, and everyone was therefore able to respond with their spells.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
What was revealed was an enormous face.
“1.2 kilometers…”
But it still had an arm – the enormous hand that was reaching out towards us was the proof.
For it to be a titan, however, it looked like a wooden puppet and the skin appeared like a dry bark.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
“They did us dirty. airport Seems like the noise overnight was to hide that thing.”
Yggdrasil Wickerman.
One of the mages predicted the size of that giant. athlete So that’s how big it had to be to cover the entire sky, huh.
It was at least 60 times bigger than the King of Titans, Balor. abandon A normal organism could never be so big.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 247: World Tree (4) by Indra Translations.
The giant, reaching 1.2 kilometers in height, pounced down with its fist.
