Chapter 287: Elegant Escape Rimuru pt15

The fourth morning.

The sunlight was dazzling yet warm, which made it hard to believe that there had been such a fight last night.

The fierce battle with the poisonous tiger had been going on all night.

They were somehow able to drive him away, and now everyone was sleeping soundly as if they were dead.

No one was killed in the fighting, but many were seriously injured.

The victim had stopped there because Moss had been ordered to protect everyone, but it would not be strange if the result was the death of the majority, had I not intervened.

Not because Julius was a bad commander, but the enemy was too strong.

It was like asking an elementary school student to defeat a soldier. There were too many gaps in basic combat abilities.

In fact, it was one of the strongest on the island.

The power of a Semi-Devil Lord rank could not mock.

But don't even think about it. A far more important incident has occurred …

So let's go back for a moment, and I'll explain what happened.

◇◇◇

The combat teachers stood at the forefront and faced the poison of the tiger.

Unlike the time with Laplace, they were fully prepared.

Physical enhancement through magic and skills, physical enhancement through items. Fully equipped with unique equipment.

Their strength is the same as A-rank.

A-rank. That's proof that you're at the strongest level in the world.

There is a big barrier to being accepted as an A-rank, and you need to be strong enough to separate yourself from everything that is beneath it. It was the strongest chair.

However, it was before – before the big war.

Now as the unique Tempest ranked equipment circulated, it became very easy to reach A-rank.

People who have conquered different layers within the labyrinth often sell items they acquired on the black market, meaning that people can buy them for money.

Of course, acquiring unique equipment through such means will not allow you to use the equipment to its full potential.

If your base level has not reached a certain point, then you, of course, will not be able to break through the A-rank barrier.

Because of all this, each school has a number of A-rank teachers employed there.

And again…

With the threat of monsters in front of us, it didn't seem excessive.

Danger rank, Disaster rank, and the old Demon Lord level, which was the Disaster rank.

In the end, there was even a Catastrophe rank, which no one would touch.

Since we are the only Disaster ranked, it is not something we should consider, but Disaster ranked monsters rule their territory in many lands. And thus allowing the level of unique ranked equipment to circulate was partly to increase the number of people who could fight them.

Due to this, the damage from monsters around the world had decreased dramatically.

As for comparing teachers and monsters in terms of strength, we are at a very disadvantageous position, as I have predicted.

I already felt that Danger-ranked monsters were too many for them, but this poison tiger was a Catastrophe-ranked, so there was no comparison.

Like I said, there is a big difference.

There are always bigger fish.

Still, the teachers relied on their numbers and surrounded the poisonous tiger, desperately trying to hold it.

And the result is this. The powerful poison of the poisonous tiger had injured them all to the point where they were on the verge of death. That's a terrible sight.

But they did well.

Anyway, I've witnessed it myself. They felt that they could not fight mercilessly in front of me, and they had fought desperately against an opponent that they had no hope of winning against.

I want to praise them without hesitation.

At the same time, Julius and the others were impressive as well.

With hordes of monsters coming their way, Julius had stood at the front, fighting to his best ability while pushing the others.

“We will definitely win! Don't give up !! ”

He shouted . The students were in danger of losing themselves in fear, but the voice gave them courage.

He has more backbone than I thought.

And his skill with the sword was not bad. And he even used magic.

He must have spent a lot of money on his equipment, because it was of the best quality, and it seemed like it was much more advanced than the weapons and armor of the teachers.

And when he was a student, he was almost as strong as an A-rank person.

Handsome + Princes + Able!

I hate that.

His condition was so great for him that all the men around him would feel miserable.

However, all of this had nothing to do with monsters. The monsters did not discriminate and did not spare Julius because of those qualities. He was just food for them.

They attacked, one by one.

Julius fought desperately.

Julius' followers also fought hard.

The disputing Maria Rogwall and the quiet girl, Carole Primrose too.

And the butler.

Even the students who seemed to have lost heart had regained their will and cooperated with vigor again.

Those who could fight out on the front lines, while those who could not, acted as saviors.

Translation by AsianHobbyist Website.

They are also very efficient.

Tents line up here, and the terrain makes it easy to see everything.

Since there was nowhere to hide, those who could fight moved out and made a protective wall coiled around the center.

There were some students who screamed and cried, but when they were about to get in the way, they were driven towards me – in other words, into the middle of the protected area.

That's so they don't demoralize, maybe.

The arrogant academic named Julius was also hiding here secretly …

This guy . There will be punishment coming to him later.

In any case, I believe that Julius' actions here are the right ones.

If even a part of the wall is destroyed, monsters will trample on us.

Fearing this, the teachers had lured the poison tiger away. However, with over a hundred monsters facing them, this was a battle too heavy for students to fight alone.

This was not about Julius' ability as a commander, but the fact of the situation.

As I said before, their opponents were too strong.

But still, Julius fought hard.

While my orders for Moss to prevent a deadly blow played a big role, he still dodged the monster attack for a while.

Combat members of the exploration team, such as Karma and Magnus, also worked together.
