Chapter 35.5: Berserk
update icon Updated at 2025/8/16 17:10:12

As soon as I arrived at the competition venue, I was taken aback by the scenery around me.

Five heavily armored warriors were standing on the nearby street, with Dreamland standing in the middle, wielding a huge sword that matched their height. It seemed like they were saying something.

However...

The aura emanating from them made nearby students and even regular knights avoid them.

Even someone like me, who doesn't pay much attention to others' expressions, noticed the killing intent emanating from these six people... Did they just come back from the battlefield?

And when I looked closely at Dreamland's level, I couldn't help but become excited all of a sudden!

Dreamland Oliver

Great Swordmaster LV34

Neutral · Cruel · Elite · Eradicator · Third Captain of the Beastman Army of the Eastern Empire · Blood Knight · Bloodsword · Cleanser

This guy actually leveled up!

In other words, this guy is now the same level as me, which means beating her would give me 10,000 experience points!

Girl, unsheathe your weapon! I want to fight you one-on-one!

"Oh, you're here! I thought I would have to wait long."

Seeing me appear, the other person greeted me happily.

"I heard that people who study magic are very talkative, but I didn't expect you to come so soon. That's great. Although I was called here to fight, I still have a task to complete! Let's finish this make-believe stuff quickly."

"...You're very confident in yourself, huh?"

As I listened to her words, I couldn't help but rub my forehead.

"Do you know the current score of your knight order?"

"Hmph, that kind of thing is meaningless in itself!"

The other person said disdainfully.

"You know, on the battlefield, life only has one chance. What's the point of this make-believe behavior? If it weren't for the order from the country to participate in this..."

"A farce, right?"

I said with a smile.

"Indeed, even if you're defeated, it's just counted as points. But you, on the other hand, have killed countless enemies on the battlefield... Are you proud of that?"

"Huh?"

"I'm asking you! By taking the lives of so many people, are you proud of that?"

"...Yes!"

The other person's expression suddenly became ferocious.

Her originally green short hair slowly floated as an ominous aura emanated from her.

Unlike the black aura of Anus, her aura was red, and that aggressive aura made her comrades around her unconsciously step back.

"I fight for the country, for my people! I don't care how many lives I take! As long as I can protect what's important!"

"...Very well!"

I looked at the teacher beside me.

"Can we fight without using Battle Enchantments?"

"Well..."

The teacher was startled by my words.

"It's against the school rules..."

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to dare to fight me to the death! Very well! Let the rules go to hell! Let's just count mine!"

After speaking, the figure disappeared in the air.

The warning of an attack from the right side flashed, and I quickly released a compressed Ice Emperor's Palace towards the right side. The opponent's sword forcefully pierced through it, then turned, and the ice shield split in half!

"You have good reflexes."

Dreamland took a step back and drew her sword, then looked at me again.

After a moment, she frowned.

"You didn't even move, are you looking down on me?"

"Where would I dare? You're a warrior with hundreds of times more battle experience than me, while I'm just a student who is not very professional in both magic and martial arts. It's not a good outcome to directly clash with an enemy like you."

And I can't use the Frozen Vault of the Hell's Kitchen because this guy's endurance is obviously several times stronger than mine. If she finds a way to counterattack and kill me, then I will just be digging my own grave.

Although there are some injuries visible on her body despite wearing armor.

Although I learned the "Sky Breaker" that can break through the Ice Vault from Bai Yueguang, it would be more trouble than it's worth.

"But do you think you can keep blocking me with magic defense? You're too naive! Kill mode! Engage!"

As soon as these words were spoken, a circle of red aura suddenly appeared around the opponent's body!

I quickly raised my ice shield, but in the moment the red circle hit, my ice shield shattered instantly!

After the red aura subsided, the ice shield in my hand also turned into fragments and fell to the ground.

This momentum is really terrifying!

The teacher in charge next to me has disappeared, it seems that he has already gone to report.

But don't worry, Oyado should have knocked him down by now, how can someone interrupt a battle like this?

In an instant, the opponent's hair color turned red, and then their figure disappeared from the original spot in an instant.

...

[Shadow Stealth]!

The reason I didn't fight in the enchantment of battle was not because I wanted to show off, but because I noticed that the location of the battle enchantment was in the middle.

What a joke, there's no shadow whatsoever in the middle, how can I fight?

In an instant, I flashed to the bottom of the building behind, and a roar echoed in my ears.

The spot where I was originally standing had been hit by a giant sword from top to bottom, creating a large pit!

The giant sword stuck directly into the floor, while Muren, like an enraged Eva Unit-01, crouched on top of the hilt and looked at me with those crimson eyes.

Berserk mode?

Is this simply a pure rampage?

But her name and title haven't changed at all, is this some kind of advanced technology?

Or could it be...

This is her true strength?

Immediately, the opponent jumped down from the giant sword, and then kicked the sword fiercely, the sword instantly stabbed towards me like a flying knife!

I quickly rolled to dodge the attack.

But in the next second, someone grabbed me from behind and threw me into the air!

Did she really come charging at me while using the sword to attack?

Looking down, when Muren tossed me away, she quickly rushed to the side of the giant sword, grabbed the sword and jumped up...

Huh?

My line of sight slowly moved upwards, surpassing the horizontal line and turned into an upwards gaze.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The figure holding the sword was already in mid-air, muttering incomprehensible words.

That's probably a skill chant, but it's impossible to talk properly like this.

It's really pitiful, even when in a berserk or ghostly state, one can still hold a conversation.

This is just a manifestation of excessive use of stimulants!

"Arcane·Infinite·Millennium Glacier!!!"

Although I haven't tried directly releasing it towards an enemy in the air, at a time like this, I can only...

The white ice instantly submerged the figure of the opponent, and a giant ice about the size of a football field appeared in the air. At the same time, I spread my white wings and flew away from the original spot.

I breathed a sigh of relief when I landed on the ground. Although flying is a good thing, it feels better to stand on the ground.

But the scene in the next second made the corner of my mouth twitch.

With a muffled sound, the giant ice enveloping Muren cracked open!

Once again, with a muffled sound, a hole appeared directly on the giant ice!

Muren, like a monster, crawled out of the hole and disappeared once again.

Damn it! This person's jumping ability is terrifying. Even if I fly, it's hard to dodge.

And with such speed, I can't even catch their name, I can only occasionally see the red shadow jumping around everywhere!

Calm down, how can I defeat her in the end!

A greatsword wielder with high-speed movement capability, it's simply terrifying.

Greatsword wielders themselves are slow in movement because of the heavy weapon they use, but this person has completely overcome that!

There's no choice but to try Lanya's new potion, right?

"Every time you force me to play the role of the experimental subject... really, cheap drugs always come with such painful consequences."
