3. Dragon’s Eye, Human Mind (16)

In an instant, silence descended on the world.

The severed arm rolled on the ground. There was no sign that the blood would stop flowing. The female student shuddered and covered the cutting edge with her other hand.

Blood was oozing out from the cracks between his fingers. Her eyes were bloody as she struggled to endure the pain.

Even until they bullied Emma, the girls’ spirits were equal. It didn’t take long for their faces to turn white.

Sometimes an action speaks more than a thousand words.

Blood fountains spewed out in the air, and by the time the hot fishy smell of blood was rising, the female students had no choice but to admit it in their hearts.

Ian Perkus is a madman.

He was not a commoner, but an aristocrat. However, he cut off an arm at once because he only blew a commoner’s cheek.

It wasn’t something I could do sanely.

If you touch a noble, the problem doesn’t end only within the academy. In the worst case, there were many cases that sparked conflict between families.

In particular, the female students were touching only one commoner girl.

The nobles, like the daughter of a herbalist in the countryside, wouldn’t have cared if she died or not even if she hadn’t entered the academy.

I couldn’t understand Ian’s way of thinking, saying that he had bullied some commoners.

But soon they had to recall a few things they had forgotten.

First, in the first place, Ian Perkus had touched the princess. Therefore, there was a high possibility that he was not interested in whether or not there was a conflict with the aristocratic families.

Anyway, the moment the imperial family was touched, the downfall of the Percus family was certain.

Second, Emma was the woman Ian Perkus brought back to life at a cost of over 10,000 gold. Even claiming ownership was not strange.

However, there were some points that female students could not understand.

First of all, whether Ian cared for Emma or not, she was just a commoner. No human had ever cut off an arm just because an opponent who was playing with fire got hit by a nobleman.

At first, it was common to try to solve the problem by talking.

Also, the female students heard that Ian was afraid of being expelled.

So, didn’t he say that he went to the princess separately and asked her to stop her expulsion? This was news that came simultaneously from credible sources.

The girls did not doubt the information.

Even if you mess with the imperial family, as long as you have an academy diploma, even if your family collapses, you will be able to earn a living in the kingdom of heaven or ten kingdoms.

Anyway, throwing water on the imperial family couldn’t lead to expulsion. It was thought that this was the reason Ian adjusted the level when provoking the princess.

However, the reality in front of them now surpassed all judgments.

There was not even the slightest hesitation.

The arm of one of them was pathetically rolling on the ground, and with a high probability this was the future of the rest.

A vivid fear seized the images of the female students.

Ian Perkus was trudging along. The faces of the female students became more and more pale at the sense of speed that was neither too slow nor too fast.

I didn’t even dare to fight.

It was a monster that subdued a named-class monster, defeated a demon, and subdued four escort knights of the princess. It was not an enemy that they could handle, as they were only in the middle of the academy.

So they chose to rely on another power as they always did.

“… … That, stop!”

Like an outburst, one of the female students screamed.

Ian’s footsteps stopped abruptly.

However, there was no emotion in those golden eyes looking at the female student. It was just an attitude of wanting to hear the story one last time.

The female student had a gut feeling. This is your last chance.

If I can’t convince Ian now, there will be a bloody bora. At most, slapping a commoner girl on the cheek, does this make sense?

It was unfair and resentful, to the point of tears.

There was a gap like heaven and earth between the girls who were born and raised in nobility and the commoner girl. Even if a commoner’s arm could be cut off for daring to stab them, the reverse was not possible.

Because the values are different.

Even the fact that I had to make excuses for such a trivial thing felt like an intolerable humiliation.

The woman wanted to inform the savage who acted like a nobleman. Enthusiasm sprang from her mouth.

“Mi, are you crazy? We are nobility! I-that girl is a commoner! No matter how much you like commoners, if you are also an aristocrat, the minimum difference is… … !”

But the words didn’t even come close.

A flash of silver light cut through space.

I didn’t even know when it came. I thought the man had just taken a couple of steps, but before I knew it, the female student’s shoulder blades were incontinent.

With wide eyes, the female student looked down at my shoulder.

Blood seeped through the silver incontinence. It was just a precursor.

Push, and the blood that burst out soaked the ground again.

The belated pain burned the girl’s brain red. A tearing scream echoed through the air.

“Kwaa!”

The girl didn’t even think of sitting down. I was just staring at the spot where my arm had disappeared with despondent eyes.

Ian had no intention of waiting for her.

With a click, the man’s foot got stuck in the woman’s stomach.

It was an unstoppable kick. The blow, drawing a black trajectory at once, sent a silent shockwave. Around this, the woman’s body bent as if it were crumpled.

The woman’s model rolled on the ground as if it were being bounced off. Even then, she couldn’t get all the shock out, and her body bounced off the ground several times.

The blood flowing from his arm drew its traces in the air. A woman who had lost one of her arms left bloodstains as she rolled on the dirt floor.

The woman who had been hit in the pit of the stomach could not even breathe properly. It looked like it wanted to hold my stomach, but it felt a bit lacking because I only had one arm left.

The remaining three female students, their faces were so pale that they were pure white. Their frozen gaze turned to Ian.

He said in a voice that didn’t feel any emotion.

“next.”

Only then did the shaking eyes of the three women turn to each other.

The opponent was a madman who could not communicate. Persuasion, at least with conventional common sense, was impossible.

Then there was only one answer.

There was no choice but to subdue them with force, but the female students immediately nodded.

The feet of the two women kicked the ground.

The other one must have been a wizard, and I heard a mumbling sound. It seemed young.

Ian was still just moving his steps. As if there was only one thing he had to do whether they rushed in or not.

And the moment when he and a female student collided with each other.

A sharp, rough upward slash severed the arm of one of the female students who was about to strike the sword down. Even before the blood splashed, Ian turned back in the opposite direction with that anti-elasticity.

Astonishment flashed in the eyes of the second female student who approached.

It was because the man dug into her arms too fast. However, because of that, Ian turned his back on him, and the woman thought that there was a chance of winning.

Until the man’s elbow cut her in the stomach.

Thunder struck in the girl’s head with a pop.

My muscles contracted involuntarily at the sudden pain. The stiffened body could not faithfully carry out the commands of the brain.

That brief gap was enough.

Ian’s model rotated in the forward direction again, and the sword strike penetrated the woman’s abdomen.

I cried, and blood leaked from between my lips. The man gave his strength and moved forward. In front of him as he ran, the body of a female student was pierced like a shield.

The wizard’s eyes were filled with confusion at the unexpected response.

It was because of the lack of practical experience. The results soon became apparent.

Pak, and blood spattered. The wizard’s pupils, who were still a few steps away from Ian, went blank.

It was a hatchet. The ax stuck in the ground struck the wizard’s shoulder at will.

Seeing such a scene that was absurd by common sense, the magician forgot to even scream.

Ian did not miss that opportunity.

“What is this, Son… Kyaa!

The man’s sword cuts the woman’s thigh.

The magician’s body lost balance at once. Her slanted body never stood upright again.

The wizard’s body fell on the ground with blood pouring down.

A female student, who was freed from the blade that pierced her abdomen, was stacked side by side.

It didn’t even take a few seconds. All that was left was blood and screams, and limbs still wriggling, not recognizing that they had been separated from the body.

“My, my, my arms… Arms piercing!”

“Turn it off, huh… Aww!”

“Everyone, I don’t have legs… oh, it hurts… … .”

Ian strode, pulling out the hatchet from the wizard’s shoulder.

The belated fountain of blood stained the dirt floor dark red. The woman’s body convulsed from the sudden pain, but it wasn’t Ian’s concern.

However, there was still one female student who had not given up.

“Revenge, keuhuh… Revenge, I will… … .”

Ian’s golden eyes slowly turned to his back.

There, with her arm cut off for the first time, a woman who had collapsed on the spot was smiling brightly.

Blue eyes dripping with hatred and resentment stared at Ian.

“Exit, expulsion… I’ll expel you, huh? I promise to end your life… De, are you listening?!”

The man was silent for a moment.

It was right after that that his body, which had been standing still for a long time, began to move. He walked away again and stood in front of the woman.

The aristocratic female student was still smiling. In those eyes, an intense desire for revenge was seething. Even so, the corners of her mouth, which she forced up, trembled, as if she was still having a hard time overcoming the pain.

Ian stroked her chin, coming to the conclusion that he had seen her somewhere.

“… … The daughter of Countess Lupesia.”

“Y-yes!”

Golden hair, blue eyes.

She was a woman who looked like the epitome of a noble lady.

She gritted her teeth, as if excited that she had finally recognized herself.

“You dare to touch me? You say you don’t want to be expelled? uhhh… My, I’ll expel you! Even if you convene a disciplinary committee and mobilize all your connections and power… … !”

However, Lupesia’s words could not continue.

Her eyes went blank again. I felt something familiar.

Time passes slowly, and hearing becomes distant. Only the discomfort felt in the shoulder blades was clear.

Lupesia’s blue eyes were wet with fear.

I didn’t even have to move my gaze. The blood fountain gushing out again made me guess the result.

Even one of Lupesia’s remaining arms had fallen off.

The feeling of a hot iron skewer piercing her spine was rather unreal, so Lupesia couldn’t react for a while.

It was her voice that responded first.

“Huh, kyaa… Kyaa!

Lupesia quickly tried to block the amputation, but no arm was left.

Those blue eyes were filled with fear. Dragging her hips back, the woman wanted to somehow get away from the man.

From those indifferent golden eyes.

However, the attempt was soon thwarted.

A creepy, groaning sound.

Now it was the thighs. It was the agony left by the amputation of Lupesia’s right leg.

“Kyaa, huh… Kyaa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa… … !”

It meant that he felt a real threat to his life beyond hyperventilation and fear. Lupesia, whose mind went blank, couldn’t think of anything.

touched the wrong

Only such an obvious conclusion dominated Lupesia’s thought circuit. The trembling pupil looked up at Ian.

The man’s golden eyes were emotionless enough to give goose bumps.

He just uttered one word in a cool voice.

“… … Please.”

At that simple answer, tears welled up in Lupesia’s eyes.

Touched wrong, seriously.

For the first time in her life, she had to feel deep regret.
