I Became a Flashing Genius at the Magic Academy [158-362][English Translation]

Episode 318 Chapter 57: Damgal Toywol (4)

Damgal Toywol (4)

Among the red and yellow flames, Hong Bi Yeon swept her silver hair as she burned a black wraith entirely. When it came to destructive power alone, she could already be considered a 5th class. When she unleashed her full strength and shot flames, even the wraith couldn't withstand it.

"...Disgusting."

Magicians sensitive to mana can feel it through their senses. While other dull students might not notice, she wrinkled her nose at the stench of negative mana emanating from the wraith.

Boom! Boom!

She had barely dealt with one when a black cloud formed in the air, and another giant wraith descended.

"Kyaa!!"

"Run!"

Watching the so-called magic warrior cadets flee in fear only made her sigh. A few cadets showed the will to fight back with their staffs, but their firepower was far too lacking to deal with the wraiths.

'To deal with even the smaller ones, at least 5th-class firepower is needed...'

It seemed that only quite powerful magic could harm the larger wraiths.

Clutching her staff tightly, Hong Bi Yeon ran to the students fighting against the wraiths. The explosive surge of mana had left her body feeling like her veins would tear apart, but she couldn't stand by and watch the fools risk their lives.

"Move."

It was a low, muttered voice, but it clearly reached the ears of the students battling the wraiths.

"Wait a second!"

"That crazy human woman!"

Whoosh!!

Before the students could even get out of the way, Hong Bi Yeon sent flames flying. It was as if she was telling them to quickly move aside since they were in the way.

Screeech--!!

"...Ugh...!"

However, despite being hit by the flames, the wraith only faltered slightly and didn't seem to take significant damage. It was partly because she couldn't fully harness her mana, but mostly because the wraith was so massive.

'I've bought some time.'

She had given the other students enough time to escape, so now it was time for her to quickly leave the area.

Thinking that, she turned to run away... but...

Thud!

Unfortunately, another giant began to form right behind her, taking shape.

"Ugh!"

Hong Bi Yeon was thrown backward by the shockwave as the giant landed, hitting her back against a pillar and retching. Thanks to the shield wrapped around her, she didn't suffer any direct damage, but her head was dizzy for a moment.

'I need to pull myself together...!'

Quickly opening her eyes and looking ahead, she saw the large wraith she had just been dealing with and a smaller wraith that had just landed rushing toward her.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

With each step, the ground shattered. The giants displayed an unbelievable speed for their massive bodies, as if a freight carriage was charging at full speed, making her knees buckle for a moment.

Move.

To the left.

In an instant, relying on her instinct that struck her mind, Hong Bi Yeon flung her body to the left with all her might. Suddenly, a huge tree sprouted beside her, tripping the wraiths and causing them to fall.
