Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5)

South of El Rath Kingdom,

After the Winter festival and the praying ritual of a good harvest was the Spring social meeting. alpha Wearing the new dress she got for this Spring, Marie was getting a shoulder massage from one of her maids.

The granary and the most important place of the kingdom in terms of economy that connected trading routes to the archipelagoes as well as the islands beneath was under total control of the traditional Dunareff Family.

That was why it was common for the large festivals of the south to be hosted by the Dunareff.

“…!!”

“Hmm… I’m fine!”

“Hmm? anxiety My dear daughter, does your shoulder hurt? armor Do you want your daddy to give you a massage?”

“Egogo… my shoulders.”

“Oh my. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com altitude Come on dear. apron Marie is old enough to know men already.”

Marie was already an adult at 19 years of age. antique She was more than old enough to feel slightly uncomfortable by her dad’s touch but Duke Marde was nonetheless shocked.

“T, this has never happened until last year and yet…!”

“Honey? meadow W, what do you mean by that?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Mom?!”

Hearing the words of his wife, Duchess Elencia, the duke widened his eyes in shock.

Despite Marie’s attempt to stop her, Elencia said things that normally shouldn’t be said to a daughter with a bright smile on her face.

“It’s been half a year since our Mari has been going out with Young Lord Korin. adjust I’m sure they have already—”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Don’t worry about contracepti—”

“Come on! adapt Don’t say that mom! aspect I, I am not… like, in that kind of relationship with Korin yet… I mean…!”

“What? absorb Sister. advance Are you still not going out with him?”

In order to fight against the senseless comments of her mother, the blushing girl constantly poked her on her sides. apron However, Elencia wasn’t the only enemy she had.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Huh? zenith Weren’t there stories about how they had done everything already?”

Second daughter, Yennefer Dunareff.

Oldest son, Eric Dunareff.

“Big Sister. avalanche I thought we were expecting a cousin already.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Sister… Are you marrying the Knight?”

The twins, Lily Dunareff and Robert Dunareff.

“Isn’t she getting married immediately after graduation?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Last one was the 2-year-old fourth daughter, Hilia Dunareff.

“Kyaha!”

Third son, Barg Dunareff.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

They were a friendly family of 3 sons and 4 daughters of the harmonious Dunareff Family but the only downside was that Marie had to be bombarded by questions and attacks from all sides whenever certain topics were brought up.

“Marie? beacon Why can’t you say ‘ethical’? timber Didn’t you promise your daddy?”

“Ahkk, be quiet! agent Korin and I are gradually climbing up in an ethical… maybe not that ethical… but still, we are slowly advancing our relationship!”

“Mari, my cute girl. arrow Look at your mom.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“You need to have as many children as me. accent I am looking forward to having a bunch of grandchildren.”

“W, we have Doggo already…”

“Doggo is cute too. arcade Come here, Doggo.”

“Y, yes?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Hurry up and make siblings for your Doggo.”

Elencia called Doggo, who had been drinking from the wine fountain, dashed up on its four legs. anxiety When she reached out, the dog-human wearing a tailor-made 2.4 meter-long branded coat rested its chin on her hand.

“Ugh…!”

“Hmm…!”

She immediately gave him a slap to the mouth as Duke Marde then shut his mouth.

“You won’t find many boys like that. acquire If you stay still doing nothing, you never know when someone will snatch him from you.”

“H, honey? alpha What are you saying?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Hua Ran.

She was a living Jiangshi girl, who was a demi-human just like her. arch Despite being aloof and seemingly uninterested in all the happenings of the world, she suddenly started roaming around Korin.

It was probably because of that incident just like herself.

Marie was rather convinced by her words because there was already a very strong competitor.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

‘Wait!’

That was an open declaration of war. adopt After an intense battle of nerves, Marie and Hua Ran perceived one another as an enemy.

『Sister. audit You don’t like me, do you?』

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Of course, it would only take 2 weeks on a wyvern so there was plenty of time left but for some reason… she was struck by an ominous feeling.

The Spring meeting would end in another 3 days. palette Korin had left a mark of his position while telling her to come find him by the Solar Eclipse on the 8th of February, so she had to depart some time soon.

After becoming a vampire, Marie had gained a sixth sense that far exceeded the capability of a woman’s intuition. album Her senses were warning her that something bad was about to happen – to her romantic battlefront that is.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“What is it?”

“Can I leave now?”

“M, mom…!”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Let me borrow a wyvern… No! adapt Actually, I’ll use a Hresvelgr!!”

Elencia waved her hand with a wide smile on her face, and Marie sprinted off. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates. palette She was already far away before Duke Marde could even say anything.

“Good luck, my girl.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Marie’s brothers and sisters chipped in after Duke Marde’s scream.

“It’s fine~ dad. harbor She can just make a new family there.”

“N, no! acid Where are you going, Marie! orbit Holidays are supposed to be spent together with your family!”

“Sure. echo Go ahead.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Let’s go, Doggo…! matrix Time to go find your daddy!”

No one was on the duke’s side. atlas Under the full support of her mother and her siblings, Marie jumped onto Doggo.

“Knn…!”

“A Grade 1 Knight brother-in-law huh… I’m going to brag about it to my friends.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

****

What Marie hadn’t expected until then was the engagement of the oldest daughter of the Arden Family.

Even though she had wasted some time because of the Winter Festival and the Spring ceremonies, she would be there in no time on a Hresvelgr.

“Alicia… is the only one in the East so it should be okay! audit Korin said he was busy too…!”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

When was the time Alicia was motivated to learn the sword?

Just like that, she had been turning away from her talents and she only opened her eyes back up because of the advice and assistance of a boy. arena After picking up her sword again, she was in the process of slowly understanding and accepting the fiendish nature of her talent.

At the start, she was just following the steps of her admired older sister, and next, she was bewitched by the sword. arctic On the first day she cut a human, she found herself smiling.

That gave her goosebumps. timber She was afraid of herself – she remembered the time when she was floundering her arms inside a black and tranquil ocean.

That was when she came across another being who had talents that were as fiendish and frightening as hers.

❰Domain Severance – Eight Dancing Swords❱

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

‘…Scary.’

Sword Fiend.

With just one encounter, she understood that that monster was a fiend of the sword just like her. advance That wasn’t the end – that beast was stronger than her, and was at a level she could not reach.

It was a demonic beast and yet… it was well-versed with swords. alert Unlike those that recklessly swung their weapons around, that monster clearly knew and understood the way of the sword.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

She was scared of that talent. auction Because she knew about the evil nature of that talent more than anyone else, she was all the more frightened by it.

Since the monster was one that would be bewitched by the act of slicing things apart, Alicia instinctively realized that it would be inevitable for them to have another clash.

‘We will definitely try to kill one another’

Despite not being fond of fighting, even she drooled just from imagining about a battle to the death against that monster so there was no way that a mere beast would be any less expectant of it than herself.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Uhk…!”

– Slam…!

She had to learn how to cut that monster down, because otherwise, she would be the one ending up dying.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

A sharp sword grazed past her side. adapt Pressing down on the bloodstained uniform, Alicia took a step back.

He was as enormous as Mt. autumn Tai that was too much to fight against.

The old man with a wild appearance gazed down at her with a haughty expression. acquire Alicia looked back at her grandfather in fear.

“Is that everything you have?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Do not ever think that your standards are the same as mine.”

Even though he was her family member who cared for her the most when excluding her older sister… and was even kinder than her at times, sometimes, she still got goosebumps when interacting with him.

“Your basics are as awful as always, my granddaughter.”

“I got… a lot better though.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

The Sword Emperor said while gazing at the horizon. antique The scope of his vision was already different from that of normal people.

“In my heart, I consider it as my disciple. anxiety Huhu, but it probably thinks of me as a stepping stone.”

“Grandpa. harbor That demonic beast…”

“However, that was a lot faster than I thought. portal To think you would ask me to teach you the sword.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Why aren’t you killing it?”

“…It’s my first time hearing about that level.”

“Because it is one that can reach the level of Thousand Swords.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

The more she heard about his worldview, the harder it became to understand him. antenna Was he leaving a monster like that aside just because of something like that?

“Those who reach that stage will easily cut the heavens and the world! afford The literal god of swords! arrow I want to lay my eyes on such a swordsman.”

“…” Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

“Of course, because I made it.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“You do not need to understand it. auction It is just an obstinate wish of an old swordsman… that cannot be understood by anyone whether it be family or comrades.”

“I… don’t really understand what you’re thinking, grandpa.”

The Sword Emperor then pointed his sword at his granddaughter. galaxy His sword had just slashed past his grandchild’s thighs and waist and was dripping with the blood of his own family.

“What is there to question? zenith The world is a survival of the fittest. acoustic Even ignorance can only be permitted for the strong.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“You senile old man…!”

“I shall make you into a fiend yourself. harbor A fiend of swords! audit Kill the monster, use it as a stepping stone and reach a higher level. atomic Become my true successor…!”

Alicia stood up with a grumble. meadow Although she couldn’t understand the madman in front of her eyes, she still needed his help with the sword.

“Uhk…”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

The fight continued. meadow From the side, it looked more like a battle of life and death than a simple duel.

“Hoho. ability Taking after your sister now!”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“It grew a lot,” she said.

****

On a starry night, Alicia carried her exhausted body and headed to the empty plot of land where the final task was taking place.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Korin Lork replied with his eyes still on the oak tree that was growing in that vacant plot of land.

It had been 4 days since the final task had been announced. academy Just like what Uzkias said, the oak staff that they buried as a sapling was growing at a rapid speed to reach the heavens.

“But it’s not fast enough. arena I’m sorry to say this to Yuel, but our speed is nothing in comparison to the one being grown by Dumnorix.”

“Yeah.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Then… what’s going to happen then?”

Korin said while munching on a beef jerky that he received after asking the druids of Findias. arrow He nonchalantly offered her one.

“Well, it’s going to be fine. palette Don’t worry about it.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Sword Emperor that old man is not going easy on you, is he? alien You’re going to bleed to death before we even get to climb the tree.”

“…”

“Aht. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com. academy Thank…”

While looking at the side of his face as he munched on a beef jerky, Alicia pondered to herself.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Everything was about helping people.

She had no idea what the ultimate goal he had his eyes set on was, but one thing was certain when looking back at everything he showed her over the past year.

What exactly was this person fighting against? apron Why did he bother crossing the border to carry out the tests and trials of druids?

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Even when he was stopping the enormous boar from escaping, and even when he was alone fighting against Professor Fermack who infiltrated the Academy… Also, when he was standing off against the undefeatable demi-human of an Unbreakable Vajra Body.

How… and why was he so tenacious?

In the end, none of those were for himself and were all a part of a process of him trying to help other people. meadow He was like a hero of justice that could only be seen in fairy tales these days.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Behind was an old man with a gloomy countenance that was wearing a robe over his entire body. arcade Unlike the Sword Emperor who was like a scorching active volcano, he was like the tranquil forest of dawn.

That was when a cracked voice echoed from behind. audit Surprised, Alicia quickly turned around.

“I see you are hard at work, this late at night.”

He was someone she couldn’t understand, just like her grandfather the Sword Emperor.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Dumnorix.”

“Korin Lork. crystal The Spear of the Queen. action I wanted to have a conversation with you at least once.”

Lawmaker, one of the top elders of druids, who was currently acting as Dun Scaith’s assistant – he looked directly at Korin with old murky eyes.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

As if he was talking to a 10-year-long friend, Korin started talking to his enemy. wizard That strange social skill of his was another element of Korin that Alicia couldn’t understand.

“Of course not. artist I am here to etch into my eyes the foe that we will have to go against some time in the future.”

“Why, to persuade me into becoming your ally?”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Please do speak. sphere O Queen’s Spear.”

“Really? timber Then as someone with the exact same thoughts about how we will be killing each other soon, let me ask you a question.”

“Aren’t druids like, environmentalists that love the forest and spirits? academy Why are you helping with the ‘Advent of Paradise’ when it’s going to kill countless people?”

The old druid gazed up and down as if he was intrigued by the human called Korin Lork. shadow Alicia wondered, how would Korin appear in the eyes of this druid who was as old as an ancient tree that was about to rot away?

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“The word, ‘love’, is a bit misleading. legend We druids are just one with nature.”

It was her first time hearing it. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors. shadow Alicia was shocked by their extraordinary goals as well as the fact that Korin Lork was trying to fight against them.

“Then why would you…”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“??!”

“So tell me, why can’t one, that loves the forest and spirits, wish for the death of humans?”

In the middle of her speech, Alicia instinctively realized after receiving the ancient-tree-like gaze of Dumnorix. abandon Even though he didn’t do anything, she still felt her life being threatened.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“Humans are beings that destroy nature, and that will only accelerate over time.”

She felt a chill running down her spine. abstract Korin seemed to have felt something similar as he gave a frown from the side.

They could not feel any emotion from Dumnorix. arcade The man who was as old as a rotting tree had an incomprehensible aura to him.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“It is okay for there to be less humans.”

“…Sounds exactly like what a normal environmentalist would say.”

“You are not wrong. afford I might perhaps be just a little bit more extreme and wicked though.”

His lips contorted in a strange and unbefitting manner.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Even though her grandfather was a madman, these people were worse. artist They were continuing on with their evil deed despite being aware of its wickedness.

“Watch me, Alicia. wizard I am going to kill all these evil bastards.”

Right when Alicia was feeling repulsed and even frightened by Dumnorix’s comments, Korin said after grabbing onto her trembling shoulders.

Alicia gulped from his spookiness. antenna It was a very simple solution to protecting nature that even he himself considered wicked. aluminum Maybe it wasn’t incomprehensible that bards singing about harmony with nature and the spirits would hope for the downfall of humans.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“M, Mr. matrix Korin…”

“How confident.”

Despite his murderous declaration, Dumnorix chuckled as if he was looking at the cute tricks of a young grandson.

“However, that won’t happen just yet. august And at least for now, you are destined to fail.”

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“…”

In spite of Yuel’s continuous and heartfelt care, Korin’s staff only grew by about 10 meters. orbit That was magical enough already, but comparisons were subjective as always.

The two of them glanced at one another’s staff sapling.

Dumnorix’s staff was already 30 meters tall. arctic It was roughly 3 times faster than their own already, and that pretty much explained how this competition was going to end up.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

“There’s no need to even wait for the Solar Eclipse. abandon It’s about time to climb up.”

“It is a huge problem that you do not have the red rowan fruits but more importantly, will you even make it in time for the Solar Eclipse in 2 weeks?”

“Mhmm?”

Korin said while confidently standing up. adopt Under the skeptical gaze of Dumnorix, he took out a bottle from his bag.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

It was a bottle… that contained some finely ground specks of gold.

“What… is that?”

“Uhh, Mr. orbit Korin? august Is this the same as the one you used during the staff task?”

Alicia asked while recalling their second trial. accent Korin had taken out his hidden move back then when they were struggling to find an oak tree with a mistletoe.

Translation of I Killed an Academy Player - Chapter 97: Sun Claiomh Solais (5) by Indra Translations.

Opening the lid of the bottle, he poured a generous amount on the sapling like a farmer pouring compost on his crops.

– Kuruk! harbor Kururuk…!

Even a druid who had been living with nature for centuries could not recognize it. abstract That was nothing strange though, because the original form of this golden powder was the one and only hidden piece in the world that never existed before, and will never exist again after this.

“Watch on. crystal Now this is magic.”
