I Killed the Academy Player

Northern Wall (1)

Merkava Academy has been closed due to the fact that winter never ends.

It’s so cold that it’s difficult to go outside, but the biggest reason is to mobilize those two people.

“Master. Professor Josephine.”

Master Erin and Lady Josephine. Although they are the two strongest forces in the Merkava Academy, they are a superpower that cannot be easily mobilized due to their positions as the chairman and chief professor of the academy.

“Is it shift time already?”

“Yes, Professor, please go inside and rest, and I will take the reins. I have something to talk with you for a moment.”

At those words, Lady Josephine nodded and disappeared through space transport. The place where she disappeared is inside Hresvelg’s mobile container that we are currently controlling.

“Do you have something to say?”

Master asked as he handed over the reins of Hresvelg to me.

“Yes, I have something to discuss about the North.”

“You mean beyond the wall.”

“Yes, because there are remnants of the myth left there.”

I can only talk like this with my teacher. I have game knowledge and future experience, but in the end, I only have fragmentary knowledge from a third-person perspective.

Compared to Master Erin, who lived in that era, what he knows is limited other than information related to strategy.

“Let’s check what you know first.”

“Frost giants. And ex-maids and dwarves.”

“How many ex-virgins have you had in your future?”

The Northern Wall was in ruins and we turned against them. But even before that, the numbers weren’t that big.

“Forty people… more than half sided with Balthazar, and most of the remaining half fell along with the wall.”

“······This is serious. Originally, there would have been 540 people.”

Master Erin said, biting his lip.

“The Valkyries are messengers who muster the legions of the main gods. They were the ones who would fight against giants and demonic beasts with the legions of legend in the battle of destiny they had read about.”

“It’s similar to this neighborhood.”

“Because the end of the gods was prophesied in some form.”

The person involved, Master, had a bitter look on his face.

“We had frequent interactions with them. Although we clashed spears at one time, we had a common enemy.”

“Are you a giant?”

“Yes, the immortals who are closest to the beings of creation. The descendants of the great sky giants were strong competitors to those of us who were called gods.”

Just as Danan’s fateful enemies before the appearance of Goidel were the demon king Balor and the giants of Povor, the main enemies of the gods of North Sea mythology were also giants.

Frost giants, including Utgart.

Surtur and other fire giants.

The result is total destruction. Whether in Danan or Beihai, the mythical era ends and the ‘golden age’ of humans arrives.

In any case, it is the same as the end of the mythical era and the beginning of human dominance.

“If there was a lot of exchange because it was nearby, wasn’t there any exchange since a thousand years ago?”

“It seems like the gods over there didn’t survive compared to the country that remained. It looks like there were some gods left….”

“There was?”

I didn’t hear that story either in the original work or in the previous episodes?

“It seems that Ohad Breath, the God King of the pre-war era, even slaughtered the survivors.”

“······.”

no wonder.

Tates Balthazar, the god of another land, settled there for 80 years.

Someone should have put a stop to this, but it seems Ohad killed them all before that happened.

“For some reason, he used Thunder God’s Hammer or the Sword of Victory.”

Among the many treasures of Ohad Breath, there were treasures of Danan, but there were also treasures of the North Sea Gods.

“Master, as far as I know, the Valkyries have the power to open the ‘door.’”

The Valkyries are annoying. Their ‘Moon’ performed shockingly in the final match.

“It seems that in the future, Tates has been revered to that extent. Only two gods can allow that. That’s right. I came here briefly 800 years ago.”

From noble mtl dot com

Master began to tell a story from the long past. The Wall too and her discoveries in the North Sea.

“This is really… unexpected.”

Maybe it was a will that could change the situation.

* * * *

Northern Wall.

A frontier defense line that blocks North Kingdom’s marauders and monsters that grow in size even in harsh environments.

In the past, they were said to be the northern guardians of humanity’s last kingdom of Boruni, but they cannot last long as they always suffer from food and manpower shortages internally and have to fight against invaders externally.

The number of applicants is decreasing, new recruits are not being replenished, and the budget is always short. Naturally, suffering from manpower shortages, material shortages, and food shortages is a daily occurrence.

“Skari! I told you to throw those bastards home!”

“Ah, I got it!”

Even in a damn place like this, there are things that come into conflict, said Dirac, the chief guard, cursing as he waited for someone to arrive at the gate of the wall.

“Ugh… It’s going to be cold. It’s time for the weather to warm up…”

It’s already mid-March. The weather should have subsided a long time ago, but this damn weather shows no signs of subsiding.

Thanks to this, the Wall Guard is to die for. Longer winters meant fewer animals for the barbarians beyond the Wall to hunt, which led to plunder.

Of course, this means that in order to plunder, one of the barriers separating the kingdom and North Kingdom must be breached.

Of course, if the wall is breached, the central place where people live comfortably can crack the joint, so the security forces have no choice but to be fully operational to prevent that from happening.

“Captain. When are you coming?”

A subordinate muttering dissatisfiedly. Dirac glanced at him and rubbed his cold cheek with a fur glove.

“I don’t know, dude. They say they’re coming to do some kind of climate survey or something.”

“You’re coming to this outskirts to do such useless things?”

“Nandle Ari?”

“Three punishments. I don’t know if you’re making a fuss for no reason. I saw that old bastard, the guard captain, drinking a little while ago.”

“That gentleman has been doing that for a day or two. But has he recently done any repair work on the south gate?”

“It’s been three years since that temporary wall was put in place. Someone will repair it. It’s just enough to keep a few monsters from climbing over it.”

In the walled city that served as a gateway, only the north gate, which connected to the north, was repaired, and the south gate leading to the royal capital was roughly maintained.

Occasionally, a manager will come and look around and point out things, but since even a penny of support is tight, it is passed over implicitly.

-Kraaa…!

It was then.

The cries of a strange bird can be heard faintly from afar. The cold sound of wings flapping in the wind.

‘uh? ‘f*ck is that possible?’

This neighborhood is a place where even wyverns cannot fly unless they are a special breed in the winter. Even so, the Wyvern rider had to wear special cold weather gear to be able to fly.

How many wyverns would have to fly to a place like that for you to feel the sound of their wings flapping with your skin?

“Big, big! Over there! f*ck over there!”

The subordinate is frightened and points his finger to the horizon. Dirac was astonished when he saw it.

“W-what is that?!”

There were a lot of wyverns.

No, there were a lot of them.

Their number reached fifty, and there were three giant entities surrounded by so many wyverns as if they were guarding them.

-Kraaa!!

-Kraaa!!

-Kraaa!!

Hresvel them. There are as many as three bodies so precious that the cost of one meal can feed the entire population of one gateway.

“Hey, aren’t they wild flying monsters?!”

“No, crazy… there’s something to pick up in this neighborhood!”

“Emergency! Emergency! Activate interception equipment! Quickly, quickly!”

Senior guard Dirac quickly activated the wall’s defense facilities.

Thanks to the occasional tamers who try to cross the barrier on eagles or the half-giants who try to knock down the gates of the barrier, everything in this old and old place is relatively new and not older than ten years old.

“Uh, Captain? Isn’t that… a wild monster?”

“What is that… huh?”

Dirac opened his telescope and saw a squadron flying from afar.

“Uh… Riders?”

Hresvelg and Wyverns. There were people on board them.

‘what? ‘I heard you were a baron who came to do some weather research?’

There are three passengers and 56 wyverns. At that point, it wouldn’t be surprising if the king left his parents’ home.

They soon began to slowly descend into the wide open space in front of the gateway. Well, it’s not that there isn’t a wyvern landing pad inside the walled city, but if it’s that size, there wouldn’t be a choice.

“Ugh, uhhh…”

Sixty flying monsters landed soon after. Since there were three of them as very large passengers, the temperature became even colder due to the wind blowing from their wings.

“Yes, that’s right!”

When Dirac thought of the poor temporary walls of the South Gate, the temporary walls were falling apart due to the flapping of their wings.

“······.”

“······.”

The cockpit of the passenger who witnessed the incident. The young man’s gaze was directed towards the guard above the castle gate.

“It’s messier than you can imagine.”

The rider got off without even frowning as if he wasn’t expecting much. I thought he was just a rider, but an operator recognized him as if he had a famous face.

“Aren’t you Lord Corrin?”

“Is he famous these days?”

“It’s not just that he’s famous! He’s the youngest special knight and the most powerful knight in the kingdom!”

That assessment was slightly wrong.

There are three specials officially announced by the Guardian Association this time.

Marie, Hwaran, and lastly, Corinne. Arisha was also recognized for her outstanding swordsmanship skills and was announced as a semi-special grade.

In any case, it is said that he is a big man whose face is difficult to see even once in a lifetime.

“Wow…”

One by one, people disembark from the luggage compartment loaded with passengers. That number was not just one or two.

Four people per wyvern. Just 200 people would have made this walled city bustle, but the number of passengers brought was three times that number.

“W-what is it?”

And those who get off are all wearing military uniforms or robes… literally ‘good guys’.

“The grime, the grime…”

The equipment worn together is unusual. Is this the latest model that is hard to find in this town where the only old javelins and arrows are available?

“Well, aren’t those wizards?!”

Everyone was shocked when they saw the 300 magicians pouring down for the last time.

Hundreds of wizards in a town where it’s hard to even see a single wizard? Isn’t that a sight that is hard to see even in the royal capital?

A group of 800 people deployed in an instant. They lined up like an army and lined up in front of the gate of the city.

gulp! The guards swallowed their saliva. It’s an impossible imagination, but if they had their way, they could turn this old walled city into a sea of fire within 5 minutes.

“Well, wasn’t it a climate survey?”

“That’s right…”

The man who was believed to be leading the unit grinned when he saw Dirac at the castle gate and jumped lightly.

But the results are by no means light. In one month, he jumped over a castle gate that was over 13 meters high.

“Hey itcha~”

“Oooh…!?”

He said he was a knight, but his physical abilities were this outrageous. Dirac was surprised by the special article that had arrived right in front of him, but he could not take his eyes off the man who was smiling in a friendly way.

“Hello, this is Corin Locke. I brought you an official document. Please check it.”

“Uh… Ah, yes!”

Dirac read the official letter given by Corin.

[Edict]

An investigation team is dispatched to investigate abnormal climate beyond the Northern Wall.

Public officials in the city are expected to fully cooperate with the head of the investigation, Corinne Locke.

──Seal of King David Yosef El Ras.

In short, do as you are told. Dirac bowed his head as he held the king’s royal crown, which he had received for the first time in his life.

“Boo, welcome to the northern walled city of Bifrost.”

For the time being, the city’s lord was Corin Locke.

* * * *

“It’s more serious than I thought.”

“okay······.”

Even Master Erin could not deny my assessment.

The walled city of Bifrost was more serious than imagined.

Let’s say that the gate wall collapsed due to the flapping of Hresvelg’s wings.

The walls in the northern part of the most important city were in poor condition and the guards were in disarray.

“500 guards armed with minimal equipment guard a 400 km long wall? Isn’t this too crazy?”

Fortunately, there was only one knight-level guard captain and no wizards.

The Northern Wall is similar to the Great Wall of China or the Thousand-Li Wall of Goguryeo. The difference is that there was only one gate, and the rest were built with high walls.

Compared to the great wall that connects fortresses, it is a great wall that makes you wonder how they built it all.

The problem is that the long wall is protected by only 500 guards. With this number of people, the gate security will not be able to function properly.

“What was it like in the future?”

“It collapsed without me having time to do anything, so I didn’t have time to prepare. But seeing this mess, I think it was worth it.”

It would have been enough if a small group of wild beasts or monsters had attacked.

The long wall was connected to a rugged mountain range, and a strong gate was built in an area located in the most vulnerable flat area.

However, when there is a large-scale war… especially when knights or wizards step forward, it is only a matter of time before a hole is created.

Still, it is a city with a population of about 10,000 people, but the reason for this mess… Well, first of all, it’s probably the head’s fault.

I heard that due to the nature of the city being a walled city, there is no mayor and there is only a guard captain and a few administrative officials.

“I’ve been looking around the city, but I still can’t see the guard captain.”

When I looked at him, senior guard Dirac bowed his head and didn’t know what to do.

“Where is Captain Neg?”

“S-sorry!”

“No, I’m sorry, go to sleep, and where is Captain Neg?”

“Yo, fairy garden! Sue, bar! It’ll be in the bar!”

“It’s crazy.”

Were you drinking alcohol in broad daylight? I will definitely destroy this bastard.

·········

······

···

The most popular establishments in these outskirts are, of course, bars.

Especially in cold regions, strong alcohol culture is prevalent and drinking is recommended even to keep the body warm.

Bifrost Guard Captain and First Class Knight Bjorn went well beyond the recommended upper limit.

“Alcohol! Bring more alcohol!”

After taking office in this city, he became addicted to alcohol.

Due to the nature of being a walled city, the population is small. Insufficient materials. In this place where there isn’t even a mayor except for Choi So-hwan’s administrative officials, he is like a mayor.

Although he was in a position to wield omnipotent power in this remote area, he only used that power for daily slacking and drinking.

“Do you know who I am?! Oh! It’s me! I’m the knight who fought that giant dreck!”

“No Drake, Sir?”

“Oh! That! He was a fire-breathing guy! That’s me… in a corner like this! I’m not a sad guy, I’m Imari!”

Even those who listened to the drinking of the city’s highest-ranking man seemed to sympathize with him.

Gu Heo-heon lives on alcohol, and he is a man who is great at cutting a knife.

Last year, when the attacking half-giant desperately tried to break down the castle gate, wasn’t he the guy who jumped off the castle wall and cut the half-giant in two with a single sword?

As I watched the scene where five or six half-giants bigger than me were displayed in two pages, even the citizens who were distrustful of the serious alcoholic thought that the knight was indeed a knight.

“But is it okay? I heard some people are coming from the royal capital today to investigate something.”

“Gancha, ganchana! At best, I’m giving you the head of the desk to read the stars, but Mer! I don’t have to go!”

-bang!

It was then. Someone comes in, violently kicking down the door of the bar.

A young man with a unique wild look… Behind him, we see Dirac, a senior guard with a pale complexion.

“Oh, Dirac. I’m already home from work…”

“Where are you, you f*cking bastard?”

“Um, that guy… no, he’s bald.”

A young man strides in the direction Dirac’s finger points. He eventually stood in front of the guard captain.

“······Bjorn?”

The expression on his face that looked like he was going to beat him to death at any moment was replaced by incredulity. It only lasted a moment, and the young man asked him with a stern expression.

“Are you the captain of this city guard?”

“What the heck… you’re so pale! Don’t be rude!”

“The summary trial for Bifrost Guard Captain Bjorn Solberg begins.”

“Trial? Japaaan? Are you far away?”

Young man… Corin Locke answered with a cold gaze.

“Magistrate.”
