I Became the Only Non-mage in the Academy

I knew.

How many sins the Mines committed in this world.

Murder, of course, rape, and cannibalism.

It didn’t stop there; they played with people and killed them.

They fed children’s flesh to their parents.

They gathered parents and children and incited them to kill each other for their own children’s ‘survival’.

And they captured the parents and forced them to kill their children.

They watched and laughed, mocking them. They offered unholy power to extraterrestrial beings.

‘Humanity’s archenemy.’

The deeper those emotions became…

The stronger the extraterrestrial beings and Mines became by accumulating negative power.

‘They are not human.’

Less than beasts wearing human skin, even pests were considered praise for them.

The destruction of Earth meant that. A world dominated by Mines. And humanity would live a life less than livestock.

“Stop them!”

“Kill all those unholy beings so they can’t step on this land!”

Outside was already chaotic. Mines were lining up endlessly, their numbers easily surpassing ten thousand.

“How can there be so many Mines?”

“It’s possible.”

I looked at the magical soldiers.

‘…Nazi.’

Literally grinding humans to create ‘magic soldiers’ was possible for the empire of evil.

The Nazi Empire originally did not intervene here. Or to be precise, they did intervene, but they wished for mutual destruction in the Hundred Temple.

Coming in such large numbers without scheming from behind…

‘It’s going to be tough.’

I looked back. Hong Yu-hwa and Seo Ga-yeon. With these two, somehow it should work out.

And Sung Han-byul.

Her talent was needed.

‘The Infinite Cup (S).’

Her talent and the mystical power it generated were absolute. So strong that it ate away at Sung Han-byul’s life.

The mystical being that created talents, the Book of Laws (S).

And the Infinite Cup (S) that supplied endless magical power from the Infinite Treasury.

The synergy between these two was tremendous. Sung Han-byul was an unbeatable presence in the early stages.

To destroy the Mines and save the citizens, I had to locate Sung Han-byul. Without a doubt, she would be in the most perilous place.

Kwaang!

A pillar of light descended.

It’s accompanied by an immense aftereffect of magical power. Even without Divine Sight, one could see the atmosphere quivering and magic screaming around.

“The Mines’ magical power has vanished…?”

A gap appeared in an instant. I hurried forward. That strike was too intense for Sung Han-byul to use again.

“Save the children first! All combatants to the front! Clerics, support from the rear!”

“It’s a wartime situation! All citizens, engage in combat! Children, evacuate!”

The momentary gap also presented an opportunity for a counterattack.

The time Sung Han-byul desperately bought was, in today’s terms, a golden opportunity. The citizens began to organize themselves step by step. Many had come to watch the mock battle.

Occasional middle and lower heroes were spotted, and many were of the level of heroes and hunters.

“I am Paladin Andersen, who serves the God of Struggle! Everyone, please follow my command for a moment!”

And there were upper-level heroes too.

I bypassed them and headed towards where Sung Han-byul was. I saw Sung Han-byul, her complexion pale. The group of priests healing her was also visible.

“Madness, what price did you pay!”

“It’s a matter of lifespan! Gather the priests who follow the goddess of purification and abundance immediately!”

I approached Sung Han-byul.

“You’ve overdone it.”

“If we hadn’t, it would have been dangerous, sigh, that’s why.”

I took a natural recovery potion from my subspace into Sung Han-byul’s mouth and stood up.

“We’ll use Seo Ga-yeon’s magical power.”

“…You know that’s dangerous, right? Two of the Seven Evils are gathered.”

Sung Han-byul said, looking up at the sky.

The sky, beginning to crack with creaking sounds, was visible.

“Only the Vicious Abomination could do such a thing. It’s collapsing the sky entirely…”

“And if that happens, external support becomes impossible, right? It’s okay. The principal can come.”

“…What?”

“And we need Seo Ga-yeon to survive.”

“Saving her can save many more. She must not be exposed now.”

Sung Han-byul spoke with determination.

“It’s a matter of life and death for the senior.”

“My life doesn’t matter. If it can reduce the Mines even a little…”

“I like that about you.”

“What?”

Sung Han-byul looked bewildered. I said to Sung Han-byul,

“Use the Book of Laws to extract the talent of amplification. Yuhwa, do you have the talent you asked Ershil to extract earlier?”

“Yes.”

“Use it to support Ga-yeon.”

I walked forward. The magical soldiers filling the gap were slowly approaching.

“I’ll buy us some time.”

I buckled White Rouge to my waist. The winter’s sword has been in White Rouge since long ago. If it’s at maximum stack, it should buy us some time.

“Huff.”

I breathed.

With one breath, I tuned the muscles throughout my body.

Black God Martial Arts.

A martial art that created and tuned the body, speeding up the movement of blood. It overworked the heart. The skeleton’s strength increased, and the muscles swelled.

Step.

I took a step forward. I stopped breathing and drew the winter’s sword. A flash of blue light flickered. The winter’s magical power freezes everything around.

Single Strike.

Simply cutting with a sword drawn in a flash. No need for hand-holding. The opponent was humanity’s archenemy. A being that must be eradicated, where even calling them pests was considered praise.

Crackle!

The winter’s magical power eroded space. Drawing the sword from White Rouge amplified the winter’s magical power. The flash of blue light engulfed the magical soldiers.

“…My God.”

Within a radius of 30m.

The magical soldiers, numbering close to a hundred in front of me, froze to death.

“Incredible, boy! I’ve been watching since you splendidly defeated our Cynthia, but really, I’m at a loss for words!”

A man with a masculine, thick outline and a hearty laugh appeared.

“Though we’re in a competitive relationship, that spirit of contributing strength to us is manly. Would you move with us?”

The anachronistic man who came riding a white horse said.

“…My God. The Holy Cross Knights.”

“Do you know us?”

“You serve the God of Light, the order of knights.”

“Yes. Captivated by His radiance, we serve Him, and He has bestowed upon us immeasurable grace. Let me introduce myself… I am Gilliam, the vice-captain of the Holy Cross Knights.”

Gilliam extended his hand to me. I took it.

“I’m Lee Seo-ha.”

“Yes. Normally, we wouldn’t rely on a student’s help, but our strength is severely lacking. Can you help us?”

“Of course.”

“Great, it seems you’re about to do something, but how far can it go?”

“We’ll be able to eliminate the magical soldiers here.”

“…You were doing something amazing.”

“Please help the citizens. And once the magical soldiers are dead, you can help us.”

“Understood.”

Gilliam nodded with a stern expression.

“We need to save Seo Ga-yeon.”

“It’s already too late.”

I looked up at the sky.

Creak. Creak. Creak.

The sky began to shatter like glass pieces.

“The sky is breaking…?”

Not metaphorically, but literally. The sky was scattering like glass pieces.

Vicious Abomination.

The worst evil that had risen to the top of this world. It interfered with space with its strength and shattered it.

What Sung Han-byul feared the most has happened.

The space forming the sky was smashed. This meant that for a while, neither the transcendent beings nor the Hundred Temple could intervene.

By breaking the space forming the sky, this entire space was isolated. For us, there’s no way out.

-Khhhh.

A sinister voice echoed. My head throbbed a bit. The evil at the pinnacle, merely speaking, shook the mind.

-Now, this place is cut off from the outside. There’s no room for transcendent beings to intervene. You ignorant fools who only look up to God. Even if you desperately wait, the gods cannot come here.

Everyone’s expression hardened.

At the same time.

Stars scattered. Starlight descended around Seo Ga-yeon. Her black hair turned silver.

Pure white,

A white wing unfolded from her left shoulder.

White Wing.

The magical soldiers’ gaze shifted. The Vicious Abomination’s gaze was fixed on Seo Ga-yeon.

“That is…”

Gilliam looked on with a stern expression.

“Do as you wish. That is your law.”

A Book of Light appeared in front of Sung Han-byul. The Book of Laws. She opened the book and tore out a page.

Amplification.

Her magical power surged. It flowed directly to Seo Ga-yeon.

Hong Yu-hwa reached out her hand. The Crown of Crimson Lotus was placed on her. Her role was to coordinate.

The amplified mana passed to Seo Ga-yeon, who then converted that magical power into the power of starlight.

“I can do it.”

With a face filled with exhilaration.

Seo Ga-yeon extended her hand towards the magical soldiers. A simple act. But the result was not simple.

Starlight descended.

The space where the magical soldiers were turned to ash. With a single gesture, nearly a thousand magical soldiers disappeared.

“What…”

“What, is this?”

Results beyond understanding.

Not even on the level of natural predators like cats and mice. The starlight magic she possessed affirmed the death of the Mines, a positive magic that embraced their demise. It’s like the outcome of casting an illusion or curse on me.

At the same time.

I felt a tingling sensation. I turned my head.

The Vicious Abomination was looking at Seo Ga-yeon.

-You are.

With eyes filled with exhilaration.

-The prophesied being who will send all Mines to death.

“You are also the being who will bring death upon you.”

-Child. This is not the battlefield for you to intervene.

“Right.”

I found myself in agreement with the Vicious Abomination. This battle was beyond my capacity to influence.

So, I shattered the necklace.

A necklace with the power to summon the stars. Yet, in these circumstances, it seemed unthinkable that Seo Ye-bin would remain inactive.

The space around us began to warp, signaling the emergence of something with immense magical power.

-You!

Enraged, the Vicious Abomination launched a punch in my direction. Despite the distance of more than 1km between us, the punch seemed to bring death itself closer.

Psssst.

The force behind the punch vanished. A long arm extended, intercepting the blow.

“Excellent.”

The voice was familiar.

But more importantly, it was comforting.

“Really well done, son-in-law. Thanks to you, we’ve got them right where we want them.”

“Who’s calling me son-in-law? Are you referring to Kim Ara?”

Their bickering filled the air.

Turning my head, I observed the Overlord casually dismissing the punch with a slap – and Celestial standing there, utterly baffled and sporting a ludicrous expression.

-This is preposterous. How could you possibly intervene?

“Ta-da. But you see, nothing is ‘absolute.’”

I shrugged and replied.

To be honest, I was taken aback as well. I had been desperately trying to figure out a way to survive, possibly with only the Emperor and Seo Ga-yeon by my side.

‘With the Overlord and Celestial.’

This battle was ours to win.
