I followed the lead and moved my steps.

 

At the age of eight, Noah Bartan found the grave of the sword while holding the hand of his younger sister, Taryn Bartan.

 

Until a few days ago, this place was plain. Noah and Tarin immediately noticed the eerie change.

 

The number of swords was bizarre enough to think that someone had inserted them for some purpose.

 

The appearance of the sword also seemed far from an ordinary sword.

 

“Brother, let’s go back. scared… .”

 

“If you’re going back, go first.”

 

“Why are you passing through here? Aren’t you scared?”

 

“scared. But somehow, I don’t know. I guess I’ll have to go over there… . uh?”

 

Upon reaching the center of the Tomb of Swords, the two children found a skull lying on the floor.

 

“Hee! Oh brother… !”

 

From noble mtl dot com

 

The little girl, Taryn, hugged Noah’s arm and trembled.

 

Noah’s gaze moved forward, and a hill of skulls caught his eye.

 

There was a dull gray greatsword that looked to be several times its size.

 

[Come this way.]

 

At that time, a faint voice rang in Noah’s ears.

 

Suddenly, the attraction he felt intensified.

 

“Taryn, wait.”

 

Tarin kept holding onto Noah’s collar and crying to go back, but he left Tarin and headed for the greatsword.

 

Noah stepped on the hill of skulls and squeezed the hilt of his greatsword with his small hand. Because it felt like it had to be done.

 

At that moment, iron magic rose from the great sword as if he had waited.

 

“Huh!”

 

The iron mana pierced every nook and cranny of Noah’s body and began to be injected.

 

Noah screamed in pain.

 

“Ah, ah!!”

 

“brother! Kyaaak!”

 

A wave of magical power spread and blocked Tarin’s approach. As if not to disturb.

 

Consciousness going away. In Noah’s eyes, he saw a child who looked like his age.

 

His face was shadowed and his expression was unreadable, but he could clearly tell that the child’s body was made of iron.

 

[My name is Lachneel.]

 

The iron child introduced himself.

 

[Welcome. I was waiting for you.]

 

“aaa!!”

 

The iron fairy Lachneel didn’t even pretend to hear Noah’s screams with an innocent smile on his face.

 

Noah had to endure terrible pain until he was forced to become a member of Lachneel and embody the magic of iron.

 

“Run away, ride… Lin… !”

 

In the meantime, Noah was worried only about his younger brother Tarin.

 

Swoop!!

 

It was a time when I felt vivid pain while swimming in the memories of the past.

 

As if severing memories, the sound of the frost sickle swung by Ice Snow Dragon-Heeld slashing the iron knight rang in Noah’s ears.

 

Cold against the skin.

 

Mind returned to reality. Noah, who was gasping for breath while lying on the floor, raised his head.

 

“you… , ice Emperor… ?”

 

What I see in front of me is a blue-silver haired male student.

 

Even though he is his own age, he is a tremendously strong man who is called the king of an element.

 

It was Isaac of Marchen Academy.

 

* * *

 

“wake up. You can still move.”

 

also. I knew it would be like this.

 

The iron magic wriggling inside Noah was gradually diminishing.

 

This is Rachneel’s realm. It must have been that the iron mana was being absorbed.

 

It seems that he didn’t know what to do in a situation where Rachneel was targeting him, so he was just being taken aback in a hallucination.

 

‘Still, since I still have some magic power left, it’ll be fine.’

 

Unlike ＜Merchen’s Magic Knight＞, Noah didn’t use any magical powers here.

 

There would still be plenty of room to move.

 

“ha… .”

 

Noah sighed and got up.

 

“Hilde, I’ll ask the other students.”

 

[I get it.]

 

Whiik!

 

Hild disappeared from the spot in the blink of an eye. Only the cold she was shedding remained like an afterimage.

 

‘It’s faster than I thought.’

 

When he was half-human, half-dragon with intact horns, his physical abilities were also excellent.

 

“He just… ?”

 

“He is my ally. you do not have to know.”

 

“ah… .”

 

“Follow me.”

 

“Ah, yes… !”

 

As I started running, Noah followed me.

 

I read Noah’s mind. It seemed like he was remembering the time I attacked Rachneel earlier.

 

“Hey, Mr. Bingje… ! What else do you plan to do? No matter how hard you are, you can’t defeat the guy above you… .”

 

“I win.”

 

I told Noah. It meant not to say anything useless.

 

If you don’t win anyway, it’s all over. As ever, of course I will win.

 

Noah’s eyes opened slightly wider.

 

“Abel!”

 

“I finally met you!”

 

Not far away, I joined Abel, who was carrying Ian on his back.

 

[Clairsight] already knew where it was going. There was no crowd.

 

Abel was relieved as soon as he saw me.

 

“Senior Isaac, by the way, what the hell is this situation… !”

 

“The Iron Sprite is playing a game against us. The conditions outside are probably a ridiculous mess.”

 

“Yo, fairy… ?”

 

Lachneel’s magic must be taking over the outer area. A sea of molten iron was rolling over, and a rain of swords was pouring down.

 

The high-ranking mages will join forces to oppose it under the Emperor’s reign, but it won’t last long.

 

Even access to the Iron Sanctuary would have been blocked, so they were evacuating the people of Aldrek to a safe place and devise measures to deal with the Iron Sanctuary.

 

On the final floor of this sanctuary, Rachneel is forging an iron heart that can continuously pump power into the iron sea. He plans to make this the heart of the realm he occupies.

 

In other words, Rachneel’s purpose is to have fun with us until the iron sea spreads and establishes a new vast territory.

 

Also, if the person who survived this game is a fit for iron magic, I will make him my follower, and if not, I will make him my subordinate.

 

‘To turn the world into an enemy.’

 

The more I thought about it, the more arrogant and stupid he was.

 

“How is Ian?”

 

“I’m still passed out!”

 

“Lay down for a second.”

 

“yep!”

 

As Abel laid Ian on the floor, I went over to him and slapped him on the cheek several times like a fan.

 

match! match! match!

 

“Ian, wake up, wake up, wake up.”

 

“Ah, senior Isaac! Then people die!”

 

Abel’s urgent cry was ignored. After all, this guy is strong.

 

Suddenly, Ian’s eyes twitched.

 

“… hmm?”

 

“Are you awake?”

 

Fortunately, Ian soon regained consciousness with a swollen cheek.

 

“Senior Ian, you’re awake!”

 

“Isaac? Abel… ? Was it a trap? I don’t remember anything since I was suddenly hit by the back of the head… .”

 

“Oh, that trap was strong… .”

 

“Where are you?”

 

I grabbed Ian’s arm and pulled him up.

 

“I’ll explain as I go.”

 

“Has something happened? I feel a terrifying power from above… .”

 

“I’m going to go see him. I need you.”

 

“ah… , you know what that’s it, that’s it Something we often went through at the academy.”

 

Ian smiled and showed his fist.

 

“Leave it to me, Isaac! I got pretty strong during the vacation too!”

 

“Don’t faint.”

 

Even though he fainted a lot, the main character, Ian, worked hard in his own way.

 

Even in an emergency like this, he knew how to roll his reason without panic, and he had an overflowing sense of justice.

 

Since he also possesses the Spear Sword, it would be safe to say that he was a trustworthy guy who met the threshold of military power that I had assumed.

 

Koo Goo Goo Goong!!

 

“Wow! What, what?!”

 

The sanctuary shook violently with a sudden ear-piercing roar.

 

It was then that another powerful mana landed on the summit.

 

“Dorothy, Kaya… ?”

 

I looked up at the ceiling. Starlight magic and plant magic were strongly felt. It was clear that Dorothy and Kaya had invaded the Iron Sanctuary.

 

As a member of the fairy family, they can handle the power of the fairy. It must have come to stop Rachneel by breaking through the outer wall with that power.

 

‘Did you come to stop the heart from completing… .’

 

I tried to look at the top floor with [Clairvoyance], but it was blocked by the barrier developed by Rachneel.

 

With Dorothy and Kayaman, Rachneil can’t win. I had to quickly sort things out and join them.

 

“Ian, Noah. You guys follow me.”

 

“Me too?”

 

Noah was surprised.

 

“Aren’t you going to have something to do with the guy above?”

 

“… you’re right.”

 

“Then follow me. Because I need you too.”

 

Noah’s eyes twinkled.

 

He quietly burned with vengeance.

 

Knowing that his younger brother, Taryn Bartan, was in danger, he also had a desire to quickly resolve the situation.

 

“thank you.”

 

Well, I wasn’t interested in those emotional reasons. Anyway, Noah had to go to Rachneel with me.

 

After defeating Lachneel, he is the only one who can become stronger by absorbing the by-products left by the fairy. This guy’s power will also help.

 

From noble mtl dot com

 

‘Iron King Noah… .’

 

It’s the nickname of the future guy.

 

If you go with the feeling of indebted to Noah, you may be able to seek help from this guy during the battle against the evil spirits.

 

“Senior Isaac, I… !”

 

“You deliver this to our academy base.”

 

I took a note out of my pants pocket and handed it to Abel.

 

“What is this?”

 

“Location of key clues. It was simply outlined.”

 

“Yeah?! Senior Isaac, did you know where all the keys were… ?”

 

It wasn’t long before the academy competition started.

 

After scanning all the stages of the academy competition with the [Clairvoyant], I found and recorded unusual things that were presumed to be key hints.

 

“Well, since you’re Isaac senior… .”

 

“In this sanctuary, there is an oath as Rachneel said. If you just open the safe in the middle, the enemies won’t be looking at you from then on. Until then, Alice and my familiar will protect you, so cooperate with the academy kids to find all the keys as quickly as possible and open the safe.”

 

The oath was a plausible lie.

 

Anyway, Lachneel kept his word. But to be honest, it would be embarrassing for them.

 

And Alice and Hild had to join me after the safety of the students was secured.

 

Heeld was especially needed. Because he can share power with me.

 

In other words, it is also possible to transfer the power of the unique attribute [Night Blade] to it.

 

“I will do as you command!”

 

Abel gave a respectful salute and quickly started running.

 

His running speed was very fast, befitting the 1st place in class B of the 1st year of the Faculty of Engineering.

 

“Ian.”

 

“uh.”

 

“From now on, I will go up to the top at a speedy pace.”

 

“It is what I wished for.”

 

Ian stretched his right arm out to the side.

 

A light, pure white, godly aura that seemed to show rainbow colors gathered in his right hand and transformed into a holy sword.

 

‘That’s real… Spear sword.’

 

Ian’s final weapon, spear sword, imbued with divine power.

 

In fact, for some reason, I felt a sense of uneasiness.

 

Having played ＜Merchen’s Magic Knight＞ countless times, I realize how much this guy is the main character I have a lot of affection for.

 

“that… ?”

 

Noah’s soft question. He looked at it blankly, perhaps feeling that the sword Ian was holding was unusual.

 

The moment of excitement was short-lived.

 

I took out the dark iron sword, held it with both hands, and blew ice and rock magic into it.

 

Ian infused more brilliant divine power into the window sword.

 

and… .

 

‘That bastard is also a problem.’

 

There was a female student who secretly followed me from earlier.

 

His ability to hide and follow his presence was excellent. If I hadn’t had the [Clairvoyant], I wouldn’t have noticed.

 

I slowly averted my eyes. Even if she was hiding in the dark, a single strand of her hair sticking out over the wall would trigger the status window.

Lv : 185

Risk level: best

 

Psychology: [I’m trying to assassinate you by taking advantage of your chance to fight the iron fairy Lachneel. ]

 

Even though she was wearing the Bellatrix Academy uniform, there was no way I didn’t know of a strong person of that level.

 

But I saw her for the first time today.

 

In other words, Buell’s subordinate.

 

It must have been an Elyos who transformed into a human.

 

‘Look at the opportunity and hit the back of the head… ?’

 

One eyebrow furrowed and a laugh burst out.

 

you should use me

 

“let’s go.”

 

“huh.”
