Reincarnated Dragon Goes to the Academy!

Chapter 155 : Finding Stun. (2)

In fact, he had been quite flustered when his body was bound by the binding magic. He didn't know how many days and nights they had prepared, but the magic circle was extremely elaborate, and it was a magic that could bind even a dragon for about ten seconds.

'If I had been a little careless, I would have been a goner.'

But there was something they had overlooked. That he was now incomparably stronger than before.

'Thanks to that, I didn't even need to call Amore.'

"H-how on earth...!"

They stumbled back, as if they couldn't believe the sight of Lucas appearing unharmed.

"No progress. Ah, but to say there's no progress, those guys are already dead."

Lucas smirked.

"Run!"

-Flash! Flash!

The quickly scattering figures.

"Right. That's how it should be."

The dozen or so demons scattered in an instant. But Lucas just stood in place and stared straight ahead, showing no intention of moving.

"Shall I wait a little longer?"

In fact, when his feet were bound and the magic poured down, Lucas, who had barely escaped, had thought.

Should I attack them all at once and kill them? Or should I reveal myself and give them time to escape?

He had chosen the latter.

'They'll lead me to their base.'

The gate from the demon world to the surface kept opening, but they couldn't find their base where they were staying.

'I'll just take down one of them.'

Lucas had left a mark on the one who seemed to be the leader among them. Now he just had to wait for them to return to their base.

'Still, it's a relief. If they had tried to attack me again, things would have gone wrong.'

Now he looked at the calm lake again and thought.

"Shall I get going now?"

It was when Lucas finally brushed off the dirt from his body and was about to cast a tracking spell.

-Thump.

The sound of the sky rumbling was heard.

"Damn it."

Lucas let out a small curse at the ominous sound he had heard somewhere before and looked up at the sky.

Then he saw a being descending from the sky with a small light.

As the being got closer and closer to the ground, the light diminished and its form began to be seen clearly.

"...?"

But when the other being that should have been there was not visible, Lucas made a questioning expression and looked up at the sky again.

"Did you come alone?"

[That's right.]

The being that had descended from the sky landed gracefully on the ground, its large pair of wings shining.

"Where is Taras?"

He was definitely the angel who had blocked Lucas's path before. But for some reason, Taras was nowhere to be seen.

[He is not a being that a mere mortal like you can dare to speak of so carelessly!]

-Kwa-kwang!

The ground where Lucas stood was gouged out by the wind that had burst out with a loud roar.

"Hah. How absurd."

Lucas raised one hand and blew away the dust.

[I have come to warn you.]

"How dare you, you insolent angel bastard."

Lucas growled low, grinding his teeth.

[What did you say?]

"You X-like angel bastard, how dare you..."

Lucas was now furious to the point of his head exploding.

He was already in a bad mood from being attacked by a group of demons a little while ago, and now an angel had suddenly appeared.

And to call him a mere mortal, talking about some great being.

[...Do you wish to die?]

The angel also trembled its wings in anger.

"You seem to be mistaken about something."

His mind, which had been filled with anger to the brim, became cold and clear instead.

The corner of Lucas's mouth, who had taken a step closer to the angel, curled up into a sneer.

"What do you think will happen to you if I die? And..."

As Lucas raised his hand, a black sphere was created. It was a power mixed with condensed demonic energy and divine power.

"Do you really think you can kill me?"

[H-how dare you!!! How can a mere human!!!]

The angel, who saw it, shouted in outrage.

[You insolent human bastard. I will kill you!]

Its wings spread wide, and a pure white aura began to emanate.

-Kwa-kwa-kwang! Kwang! Kwa-kwang!

"I told you it's absurd."

But even with that attack, Lucas just twirled the black sphere in his hand, unharmed.

"For an angel to act so arrogantly, trusting in such a pathetic power."

The black sphere grew in size.

[Do you think I will fall for your shallow trick!]

He flapped his wings once and retreated greatly.

[Where there is darkness, there will be light.]

As he brought one hand under his wing, a pure white streak of light came out from his fingertips.

[Where there is light, there will be darkness.]

The streak of light had turned into a spear and was aimed at Lucas's neck.

[Beg for your life now. Then my mercy... t-this is!]

As Lucas smirked, the black sphere moved to the tip of the spear that was touching his neck. The flustered angel quickly thrust the spear towards Lucas, but it was already too late.

[K-kyaaaak!!!]

The pure white wings were burning black.

"What a load of crap."

Lucas once again twirled the black sphere on his palm.

"Now, beg. Then I might leave you with one of your wings."

[K-kyaaaak! I will kill you!!!]

As he thrust his spear, a black streak of light shot out quickly with a pure white light.

-Ku-kwa-kwang! Kwa-kwang!

[Die! You insolent human bastard!!!]

-Kwa-kwang! Kwa-kwa-kwang! Kwang!

His figure, pouring down attacks, moved so fast that it was invisible to the eye.

'An angel is an angel, I guess.'

Lucas, who was receiving all the attacks, was also getting tired. The angel's attacks had a divine power similar to the god he served, and the higher the angel, the greater its power and ability.

'There's no opening to counterattack.'

With his defense magic firmly in place, he couldn't counterattack while receiving the attacks that were pouring down like thunder.

-Kwa-kwang! Kwa-kwang!!!

[I didn't like you anyway! How dare you touch my wings!!!]

He, who was pouring down attacks in anger, staggered for a moment due to the one wing he had left.

'Now'

Lucas, who had seized the opportunity, briefly released the defense magic he had been maintaining and teleported.

-Flash!

[You rat-like...!]

-Pssssst.

[K-kyaaaak!!!]

The angel, who had lost its other wing, writhed in agony.

"Tsk, tsk. You've lost the other one too. Without your wings, can you return to your lofty god?"

[How dare you!!! You bastard!!!]

The sphere gathered in Lucas's hand grew larger and larger.

"Ah, and."

The large sphere that had grown in size approached as if to swallow the angel.

"I didn't like you either."

-Tss-tss-tsut!

[K-keo-eok... keok...]

As the black sphere swallowed the angel, the angel was no longer there.

"Damn it. Why did an angel suddenly appear."

Lucas, who had brushed off his hands as if he felt nothing, was about to cast a tracking spell again.

-Thump... thump!

"Hah. Again?"

As the sky rumbled again, Lucas looked at it with an annoyed expression.

"He's not alone this time."

Taras was descending.

***

The rumor about the saintess who had appeared in Rieberk was crossing the sea and spreading.

"Rieberk? In that small island nation?"

"That's what they say."

"Is that the Resurrection Cult I know?"

The rumor quickly spread to Arant, and everyone gathered in the square was talking about Rieberk.

"Yes. That's right. We all used to use that holy water we received back in the day, right?"

"That's right. That's right. Ugh! But the Resurrection Cult is... you know?"

The atmosphere was one of everyone hushing about the Resurrection Cult, which had incurred the wrath of the dragon.

"What's the big deal? My headache has come back, and no matter what medicine I use, it doesn't work. A single drop of that holy water used to be fine for a week!"

A woman said, pressing her throbbing temples.

"Right. That's true too. No matter how scary it is, the pain right now is scarier."

"That's right. That's right."

People agreed with the other woman's words.

"No, then are you saying we should go to Rieberk or something?"

"We can't do that. Even if Rieberk is close, the people there are so scary."

Everyone knew about Rieberk's culture of ostracizing people from other countries, so they were scared in advance of being treated harshly if they went there.

"But you know. Do you know that? That the Resurrection Cult is actually not gone."

Just then, a woman who had been listening to the conversation quietly opened her mouth carefully.

"Eh? It's not gone? Oh. Now that I think about it, wasn't Cindy's mom a faithful believer of the Resurrection Cult back in the day?"

Another woman said, looking at the woman who had just opened her mouth.

"Yes. Well... that's right."

"Oh my. Cindy's mom. You know something, don't you?"

She had a feeling that if she was a faithful believer of the Resurrection Cult, she would know something.

"But this is a little hard to talk about..."

As the person called Cindy's mom was reluctant to speak, the other people urged her on, saying it was okay.

"Actually, there's a secret meeting of the Resurrection Cult. There, they still..."

As she, who had barely opened her mouth, took out a small bottle from her bosom, a gasp erupted from the people.

"Oh my! Isn't that holy water?"

"Shh! Someone might hear."

"Ah. Shh."

At that, the people quickly brought their fingers to their lips.

"This is a secret for everyone. You know that, right?"

The people nodded their heads vigorously.

With the appearance of the new saintess, the Resurrection Cult was raising its head again.

***

"Stun Fierente-nim."

"Ah, Eddie Erenta-nim."

Stun, who was looking after the people in the hut, turned around at the voice calling him and smiled gently.

"I have news to deliver."

"What news is it?"

At Stun's question, the intermediate priest called Eddie glanced inside the hut.

"Um..."

"Ah. Let's go outside and talk."

Stun, who had noticed his meaning, led Eddie outside.

"Please speak."

As they moved some distance away from the hut, Stun lowered his voice and asked.

"Do you by any chance know of the small island nation of Rieberk?"

"Of course."

Even at Eddie's sudden question, Stun nodded his head and smiled softly.

"It seems Pamela Fierenta-nim is there."

"Hmm...?"

It was a name he had never heard before.

"Ah, she is the one who was here before Stun Fierente-nim was called. She is the one who always stayed by the cult leader's side."

"Ah. Yes. I think I have heard of her..."

Stun, too, had heard of the woman who had stayed by the cult leader's side. As a priestess with a faithful belief and a thorough spirit of service.

But when the Resurrection Cult collapsed, her news disappeared without a trace, and he had heard that all the priests had set out to find her, but they had all failed.

Therefore, within the Resurrection Cult, there was even talk that she had surely betrayed the cult.

"Ah. By any chance, is the cult leader with her?"

"It doesn't seem so. We heard news that she was with a young man, so we were a little hopeful, but they say he is just an ordinary man."

"Hmm..."

At the news that a man was with her, Stun's eyes narrowed as if he had expected it.

"But they say the ability that Pamela Fierenta-nim has is the same as the cult leader's ability."

"Is that really true?"

That meant that a new cult leader could emerge in the Resurrection Cult.

The Resurrection Cult was a religion that had grown based on the holy water imbued with a mysterious power and the power to miraculously heal the sick.

They believed that there was a new world called Cielo that the cult leader spoke of, and they had shown endless faith and trust to go to that world.

But now that the cult leader was gone, the power they had been crazy about was as good as gone.

But if a person with the same power as the cult leader appeared, the Resurrection Cult would be able to regain its former fame.

"Yes. It is certain."

"If that's true, then there's no time to delay."

The new cult leader of the Resurrection Cult. If he appeared, the dragon's hatred would be nothing.

"Yes. We have already finished all preparations to depart."

"Let's go."

Stun smiled brightly and quickened his steps.

"Yes. Stun Fierente-nim."

Eddie, who was following the leading Stun, also had an excited expression at the thought of the Resurrection Cult that would rise again.

'Right. If a new cult leader appears, we will be able to achieve his will even sooner.'
