Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2)
“There are a lot of people talking about the festival.”
The reason the students were so hyped up was because of the upcoming festival.
A month passed after the Tornado Bat incident. artist These days, the Academy was bustling with noise.
“It’s a big event that only comes once a year, after all.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“…Parents and guardians will be invited as well, right?”
Hearing Korin’s reply, Alicia gave a concerned look instead of one of expectation.
“Yeah. academy Are your parents going to be coming?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Did you see Miss Lunia during the holiday?”
“No, I did not. aspect She was busy hunting demonic beasts in the east. airport I had to come back when she was close to being finished.”
“I think… my Sister will be the one coming.”
Even during her middle school, it was always her older sister whenever there was a parent-teacher interview.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“By the way, shouldn’t we hurry up and make our teams?”
“Yeah. action We need to sign up for the individual, double, and group events!”
Just like Alicia, who wasn’t really hyped up for the festival because she was still scared of Lunia, Korin was also not interested but he had a different reason. accent Including the last iteration, this was already his 4th festival. apple He was an experienced newbie who even attended the Legendary Festival that involved all the 4 great academies worldwide.
“You can only attend 2.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
As expected of a knight, Jaeger preferred individual battles whereas Lark wanted to participate in the doubles event. autumn It was understandable because individual battles were quite difficult for a mage.
“Oh right.”
“Which one are you going to attend, Mr. sphere Korin?” asked Alicia.
“Doubles. atlas By the way, you have to come with me.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“What do you mean, ‘uwek’? absorb You’re in my fixed party, remember?”
“Uwek…”
Alicia had no right to turn him down.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“But wasn’t everything random? amateur Even if Mr. action Korin and I want to attend the doubles, the chance of us being chosen for the doubles is…”
“What about the group event?” All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com
“A lot of things are random for the group event, so it’s hard to tell right now.”
By the way, there were always at least 1,000 people participating in the preliminaries of the festival’s group battle event. zenith Out of them, only 4 teams of 4 people would be making their way up to the real stage.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Ohh~”
“We will have an announcement soon. admire Everyone above Grade 2 can choose to participate in one of the events except for the group battle.”
“Why aren’t you going with Senior Marie? acoustic It’s a bit weird for me to say this but… isn’t Senior Marie the strongest?”
Alicia was in the middle of thinking about how she had no other choice but to attend the doubles, but she suddenly thought of something and asked Korin.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Senior Marie said she’ll be going for the individual event.”
“Apparently she likes one of the prizes of the individual event.”
Mages were weak at 1 on 1 battles because most battle mages excelled at slow but strong spells that required time to cast.
“Huh? audit She’s a mage though?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Well, I’m sure Senior Marie will be beating everyone this year.”
Besides, Marie herself was also physically strong enough to blow away random knights with her fists.
Unlike other mages though, Marie had the overpowered Doggo, who could become the strongest bodyguard that offset the greatest weakness of mages.

“What is it?”
That was when the lecture room turned noisy.
“Look!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Wow. beacon Look at her; she’s so pretty.”
“Look at those clothes. arrow Is that the famous sage clothes of the east?”
“You idiot. adopt That’s just what they wear in the east.”

Taoist Sage, Kang Ryun.
“They’re finally here.”
Looking out the window, Korin saw three people walking across the Academy. riddle Their clothes were proof that they were from the east, from the same homeland as Hua Ran.

“Transferring a student of our Academy to Purple Hawk Academy is something we cannot permit.”
“I believe it is a rightful request as the child’s direct kindred.”
“…Do you seriously believe what you’re saying makes sense?”
Senior Professor Josephine of Merkarva Academy was flabbergasted by the request of the middle-aged man who visited from the east.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
The content of the meeting was that he wanted his blood-related kin, ‘Kang Ran’ to transfer over to Purple Hawk Academy.
As soon as Senior Professor Kang Ryun arrived as the ‘judge of the preliminary group event’, he immediately requested a meeting with Chairman Eriu and Senior Professor Josephine.
“…I am aware.”
“1 year ago, we had ourselves a terrible tragedy. admire Unfortunately, the one at the center of that tragedy was my own niece.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“In the midst of chaos when one of our castles was being reduced to rubbles, you took away my niece. arrow Now that we are aware of her whereabouts, I believe retrieving her is the most natural measure for me to take.”
“I simply want to regain my niece.”
“Student Hua Ran has special circumstances. acid I’m sure you are aware of that yourself.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“As you know, there is a beast lying inside the body of that child, Ran.”
“It is thanks to her that the body of Student Hua Ran is still alive. acid And that was the wish of Chairman Eriu and his long-time friend, Mister Kang Yu, the father of the student.”
“…”
Kang Ryun’s argument was very reasonable because he really was Hua Ran’s blood-related uncle – he was her father’s older brother.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
In truth, Hua Ran spent her first semester without any problems. academy She didn’t show any overly aggressive attitudes and she did have several acquaintances despite her limited number of relationships.
“Hmph…! legend That is up to us to decide. atlas In the first place, do you seriously think that that beast can learn social skills?”
Josephine was saying that to make sure Hua Ran wouldn’t be dragged back to the east, but that was when the other visitor opened his mouth after a long silence.
“Of course.”

He was a large yet virtuous-looking man. amber He, who was wearing a slightly old-fashioned sacred clothing was Bishop Renault Lusignan who was sent from the holy land of the Old Faith, Xeruem.

“That fiendish demon having social skills? wizard How do you not realize that this is part of their evil plans?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“…What are you trying to say?”
“Bishop Lusignan. august I believe it is better for you to refrain from saying anything else.”
“No! portal We, the true faithful ones, will not believe your claims that have zero evidence.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“How about you let that evil one attend this festival? acquire That fiend that murdered countless innocent lambs will reveal its true nature in the heat of battle and violence.”
Honestly, Josephine wanted to logically argue against everything he said but she didn’t have the confidence to have a battle of logic against religious people. athlete A dispute against a religious person was not a battle of facts and logic, and was in the realms of emotions and faith.
“…”

It would be great if she beat them in the argument by using that as proof and stopped them from coming up with worthless disagreements but…
According to their standards, she too would have to be burned at the stake for being a witch.
Fighting against Old Faith and the Senior Professor of Purple Hawk Academy on the topic of Hua Ran was actually favorable for Merkarva Academy, because they had two precedents that proved how demons could have more than enough social and rational mindsets.
“Are you saying we should have Student Hua Ran attend the festival?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“What is it?”
“Alright. arcade I will ask Student Hua Ran if she would like to attend the individual event this year. athlete And, Professor Kang Ryun?”
“Student Hua Ran will decide her residence herself. aspect Things might be different in the eastern continent but here, her legal guardians are me, Chairman Eriu… and the great Saintess of Chapel Zeon.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Things… really went the way he said.”
With that, Josephine encouraged them to leave. atomic There was a reason why she was so cooperative with their request.
“…”

Josephine recalled the conversation she had with a certain boy a few days ago.

“The academy invited for this festival is the Purple Hawk Academy, right?”
Lady Josephine said with a cold gaze. alert She was in the middle of monitoring every one of Korin’s actions due to her distrust and was probably wondering why he was suddenly saying this.
“Is there a reason?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“…!!”
“There are Valtazar’s dogs hidden in this festival.”
“Yes. amber It is an annual event.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“I only know that something will be happening but I’m not sure about the details either. abstract However, I can make a guess.”
Lady Josephine’s eyes widened into circles. legend She was considering Korin Lork as Valtazar’s disciple, so she found his words highly convincing.
“You mean?”
“Who?! echo Where are they?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
Because of their constant decline, the Old Faith was desperate to increase their influence once again, and a small portion of students along with the spiritualist of Purple Hawk were also working in conjunction with them.
“Old Faith and Purple Hawk. portal It might be one of them, or it might even be both.”
The keyword for both groups was [Heavenly Yaksha, Hua Ran].
It indeed was both.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Then Student Korin, you…”
“Professor Josephine. atlas I want to ask you to monitor the Old Faith.”
This event concerned the turning point of the main scenario and the fate of the super important named character, Hua Ran, which would later decide the future of the entire El Rath Kingdom.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“You don’t have to trust me. audit Please continue doubting because that is the right way to take things. abandon But whatever you do, my goal will never change.”
“But how can I trust that…”
“There are newly constructed inns, or rather hotels, near the outskirts of the city. afford Please have the Purple Hawk students stay there. adopt That place is the best place to monitor them for me.”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
Josephine had also seen that Pledge.
“…”
『I will save the world.』
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“That has nothing to do with this.”
“I heard how Student Korin was the owner of the hotels who received the investment…”
“By the way, I think there were stories about how new hotels were built in the outskirts with the investment of students…”
After heaving a sigh, Lady Josephine turned to Korin with a squint. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

“Recently, there were talks about Student Marie moving fresh ingredients over to that place and running stalls…”

That was most certainly the case.
The reason he prepared all sorts of profitable business models including daily necessities, food, carriage fees, and everything was all because he wanted to make things more comfortable for the guests.
Obtaining more than 100 long-term guests.

At the center of the Academy at the ‘festival venue’ were more than 1,000 students including myself. arch Everyone was looking around their surroundings including Jaeger and Lark.
“There’s so many of them.”

Apparently, she was only going to be attending the individual event. legend And as for Alicia…
‘I guess Hua Ran is the only named character that is not participating in the group event.’
Starting from freshmen students who participated out of curiosity, it ranged all the way to 4th year students who wanted to add even one more line to their CV. canvas There were about 1,000 students including the 4th graders and that meant most of the diligent students had applied for the event.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
She was all~ the way over there in the middle of the crowd. advance Try your best to survive, Alicia.
“Nice to meet you everyone. alert I am the judge of this year’s preliminary battle, Kang Ryun.”
“Mr. autumn Korin~. album I’m hereeee…!”
The middle-aged man with a dignified aura said from the platform while gazing down at the festival venue.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Who is that person?”
“You know, he’s the Senior Professor from Purple Hawk that came a few days ago.” This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.
“It’s going to be disgustingly hard again. artist Ahhh~!”
“Ahh… that’s him huh. ability I think I saw him the year before when we went over to the east…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“I think… he was on Guardians once. canvas He was like the greatest formation expert of the east or something…”
Taoist Sage, Kang Ryun – he was officially recognized by the Alliance as a semi-Unique Grade mage, and was well-known for creating unbreakable formations with unbreachable walls.
The 1st and 2nd year students showed a contrasting reaction to the 3rd and 4th year students.
“Is he famous?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
After saying that, Kang Ryun ended his dry speech.
“The following battle is the preliminary stage to choose 16 brave guardians that will be attending the group battle. arcade I wish you good luck. shadow You will be disqualified on the spot if your epaulets come off so keep that in mind.”
“We will now begin. academy The content of the test is… I believe you could say this is the most important role of guardians.”

Before the students could even process those words—
– Kugugung…!!
『Save the Citizens.』
The ground began to soar up.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“…This is gonna be another hassle.”
“The ground is moving!?”
“H, huh. palette W, what’s happening?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“How does this make sense?”
Some of the students were confused while others were somewhat expecting this to happen. antenna In the blink of an eye, the ground finished changing into a structure.
“Crazy…”
Jaeger barely stopped himself from swearing but…
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
Lark unknowingly let out a swear word. amber As a mage who understood just how immensely difficult something like this was in principle, it must have been more ridiculous for him.
❰Eight Formation Drawings – Eight Gates Formation❱
Their reactions were justified though, because the festival venue that had a thousand students inside had suddenly turned into a labyrinth!
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
In order to crush a formation that had already been activated, you had to destroy or remove the articles forming the formation, or brute force the formation. atomic Of course, brute forcing and trying to find the weak points of a formation was as difficult as finding the pattern of claymore mines in a minefield.
It was a formation that was activated by placing down mythical articles that braced the laws of nature with the support of the user’s mana.
A well-constructed formation messed around with people’s sense of distance and was as tough as an unbreakable fortress that could stand off against tens of thousands of enemies.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
Lark pointed at a place that had golems made of stone. antenna There were sentences written down on the wall next to them.
“Maybe he was talking about those?”
“By the way, what does it mean to ‘Save the Citizens’?”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
『1. acoustic You may command the citizens after touching them.
****
2. antenna If you safely guide the citizens to the destination, you will receive 1 point per citizen. altitude But needlessly destroying a citizen will result in -2 points per citizen.』
The rule itself was quite straightforward.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“C, come this way!”
All in all, this was about protecting the citizens. crystal Following the fundamental purpose of guardians, which was to protect citizens in a land infiltrated by demonic beasts, their job was to guide as many stone citizens as possible to the safe locations.
Alicia was able to understand the rules of this preliminary event without much difficulty.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
Right now, she was moving with other students.
“We already have ten! arena This should be quite enough right?”
“Miss Alicia! palette We have another citizen here!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
What she wholeheartedly realized during the hunting grounds prac lesson was that tests like these weren’t supposed to be done as an individual despite the Academy not separating them into groups.

Especially in a test like this, the most efficient method was to gather allies and assign roles.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
– Woof!
“A demonic beast in front! echo A long hound…!”
Hearing that, Alicia quickly raced across the labyrinth. abandon Hounds had the tendency of calling their kindred so it was best to deal with them as quickly as possible.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
They were the stone warriors of formation experts. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors. atomic It was probably made to look like demonic beasts to make it seem more realistic. afford Since the stone citizens were also technically stone warriors, it was possible to see just how much effort and articles had gone into this formation.
“Huu~”
With a thud, a long wound appeared on the long hound’s body. galaxy Soon, the body of the long hound turned into stone and crumbled down.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
“Huu~. airport Everyone. anchor Did you find the safe locations?”
“Everyone else was busily moving around though. matrix Shouldn’t we gather as many citizens as possible beforehand?”
“I’m looking for them right now with my familiars. arena It’s an Eight Gate Formation so there should be an exit near this place as well…”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
– KIYOOOOOOOOTTT…!
Four boys and girls including Alicia worked in cooperation to come out on top of this preliminary event. orbit However, what they weren’t aware of was that crazy people tended to appear in survival games like this.
“What do you think, Senior?”
A strange scream echoed across the enclosed labyrinth along with the deafening sound of drums.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
– KIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE…!!
– Dung dudududung! action Dung Dung!

“E, enemies! abandon Enemies approaching from the front!”
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
And when they at last showed themselves… Alicia and others were struck speechless.
“……”
A thunderous set of noises were reverberating inside the labyrinth. adopt The owners of that ominous yet majestic background music were slowly approaching Alicia’s group.
Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 67: Night before the Festival (2) by Indra Translations.
– Dung dudududung! action Dung Dung!
Running across the ground were stone warriors that went by the name of stone citizens. agent After combining dozens of stone citizens together like the horses of a mock cavalry battle and riding on them, several students were striking their drums and harps, which they got from who knows where, like madmen.
“…What in the heck is that?”

Due to being way too immersed in their acts, the boys let out barbaric howls and played their harps like electric guitars which made them appear like bandits that came straight out of a book.
It was hard to tell them apart because of their overall appearance which made them appear like people who would say, ‘Why so serious?’, but Alicia immediately recognized who the boss of that bandit group was.
One of the bandits with their lips painted red, Jaeger, shouted while looking down at Alicia and her crew.
“We are the Mandrake Bandits! athlete Drop your weapons and we will spare your lives!”
