Magic Academy Bans Harem

Chapter 162 One Thousand Years Later
After Dr. Elson activated the power of the Sin Seal, his overall physical quality was obviously improved. Therefore, in addition to his physical agility, his physical defense was also improved, so that even though he was hit hard by a heavy kick, he only let out a cry of pain and flew away.

In mid-air, Dr. Elson managed to adjust his body shape, turned sideways, kicked his legs against the wall that he was supposed to hit, and leaped high up.

He seemed to want to continue diving in the direction where the arrows were constantly being shot. After all, surrounded by countless arrows, she had no time to do anything.

However, when he was halfway into the dive, a few streaks of green light flew towards his side.

It was not until he subconsciously used the cloak wrapped around his arms to wave at the green lights and the green color quickly spread on the cloak that he realized that those things were actually fireballs of special colors.

Entangled in the flames that could not be easily extinguished, Dr. Elson was "shot down".

After rolling on the ground, he saw more arrows and fireballs flying towards him in a short gap.

Moreover, some arrows underwent strange changes after colliding with the fireballs.

The green fire arrows seemed to have suddenly developed self-awareness. They moved in a strange and agile trajectory, bypassing the blocking range of the dagger in Dr. Elson's hand, and striking directly at his vital points from tricky angles.

For a moment, Dr. Elson, who was obviously beginning to panic, instinctively ran away.

He looked a little unsure of what to do next.

There was a berserker-like guard at the place where the mysterious archer shot the arrow, so it was impossible to approach casually. And the person who threw the difficult fireball was in another direction, and it was not necessarily that there was no one protecting him.

Just when Dr. Elson wished he could split off another body to silence the two attacks, at a location that looked like an alley intersection, he saw it.

Is that a cat as big as a tiger or leopard?
A big snow-white cat holding a nun in black clothes who looks like she has lost all hope in life?

The nun, whose collar was held on her back, looked like both a shield for the big white cat and a weapon that the white cat was swinging its head around.

There were countless flying props chasing behind him and incomprehensible monsters blocking his way in front of him. And if you looked closely at the nun, she seemed to be emitting an inexplicably powerful aura.

At this moment, Dr. Elson knew one thing clearly.

That is, he should not be able to defeat this group of inexplicable people.

So, he turned his body again and shot down the numerous threats with the dagger in his hand. In the little space he barely got, Dr. Elson took a deep breath, then jumped up lightly, stepped on the outer walls of two adjacent buildings, climbed up quickly, and landed on the roof of a four-story building.

"There are so many people here. You are so mean, brother!"

Dr. Elson jumped down from the roof in high spirits, and then was kicked, burned, and chased for a while. He returned to the same place in embarrassment and shouted angrily at Ritas.

"So, who is your brother?"

Ritas, who had been watching the battle on the rooftop, frowned slightly and said,
"Besides, have you ever seen a guard arrest a prisoner in a one-on-one duel?"

In such an occasion, Professor Ritas would not think that it was a despicable act to lead his opponent into the encirclement prepared in advance. If he had to say it, he would only feel sorry that the "abandonment" incident involved Adeline, so he could not call for more help.

"Besides, aren't you a little weak as a 'Darkspawn'?"

Ritas asked, staring at Dr. Elson.

Strictly speaking, Dr. Elson, who was using his physical abilities to fly, was definitely not weak. If he became an adventurer, he would sooner or later be able to reach the level of a five-leaf with his abilities and qualifications.

However, in a horizontal comparison, Ritas felt that the power currently displayed by Dr. Elson was not as good as Bart who had just obtained the power of the "Mark of the Blood Moon" some time ago.

"It's not because of you!"

"I?"

Ritas keenly grasped the key point in Dr. Elson's reflexive answer, which was a little resentful.

"Is it because I have been trying to stop you from becoming famous that you have become weaker? Could it be that the power of the Sin Seal is related to fame?"

Dr. Elson seemed to realize that he had said something wrong. He covered his mouth and quickly adjusted back to his previous state.

"Hehehe, although this is an excessive meeting gift, I will accept it for now! But next time, you won't win so easily!"

Although it felt like Dr. Elson was making a ruthless statement, the words "I'm going to escape~" made the words lack the necessary "ruthlessness".

As he spoke, arrows and fireballs followed him like a shadow.

Earlier, those attacks were paused only because Ritas was talking to Dr. Elson.

Ritas, who was closer to Dr. Elson, clearly captured the new changes in him.

The blood-red sin seal that had previously only emitted a dull glow seemed to become three-dimensional under the control of Dr. Elson. It was no longer just a flat sin seal, but was slightly sunken into Dr. Elson's cheek, making his face look as if it was tightly bound by some ropes.

At the same time, a reddish human-shaped shadow expanded from Dr. Elson's body. It was a shadow that was only slightly larger than Dr. Elson and completely enveloped his body.

This ray of light acted like a protective wall, blocking the flying props attacking from all directions.

In addition to the clinking sound of iron hammering left by the arrows on the light and shadow, the corrosive green flames were extinguished the moment they came into contact with the light and shadow.

"You didn't use this power like this before because you couldn't move quickly after calling out the light and shadow?"

"Well"

Dr. Elson, who originally wanted to ask "How is my strength?", only felt a huge pressure from Ritas, who was still not far in front of him, calmly observing and speculating about him.

Without further ado, Dr. Elson made a slightly odd gesture.

He crossed his arms in front of him and put his left hand in front of his right eye.

Then, the center of his bandaged palm also emitted light. Moreover, it was a brown light, different from the red light of the sin seal.

As the light grew brighter, a hint of surprise finally appeared on Ritas's face.

Because the patterns that emerged under the light were very familiar to Ritas.

It's the Star Mark Emblem.
"Huhahaha! Goodbye! Brother!"

After releasing the red light and shadow, the ground under the feet of the disabled Dr. Elson seemed to have turned into a quagmire. Dr. Elson's feet had already sunk into the quagmire, and soon his knees had sunk into the ground.

For a moment, Ritas was absent-minded because he noticed something.

Perhaps, Dr. Elson was just making a move that had no practical significance. However, in Ritas's eyes, he saw the star pattern on Dr. Elson's hand and the spider-web-like pattern of the sin mark on his face, which sometimes seemed to overlap.

With the Star Mark Emblem as the center, the pattern within it is expanding and spreading in all directions in the form of a spider web.

"what a pity."

Ritas came back from his thoughts and sighed softly.

"Hehehe, there's nothing to be sorry about, brother! Don't mention it to me, no one in this world can catch me!"

Doctor Elson, who thought that Ritas couldn't help himself, was sad that he couldn't catch him, said shamelessly. It was obvious that the reason why he could appear and disappear in secret and even invade the princess's mansion was because of the wall-penetrating ability brought to her by the star pattern.

"No, I just feel sorry. If I had known earlier that you had these powers, I would not have come here as a temporary advisor to the Guard Knights, but in my personal capacity. But let it go now."

Ritas shook his head, then took out a lantern and held it in his hand.

"In short, there is no way you can escape today. So, if you don't want to get some strange injuries, I advise you to surrender."

On the roof under the night sky, Dr. Elson was sinking to his waist.

His sinking speed was obviously a bit slow. This was probably because she turned on the red light. Otherwise, every time he invaded someone else's house, he would have to wait for several minutes to escape. His ability might not be as good as that of a skilled locksmith.

"Let me tell you something that is both related to you and unrelated to you."

Ritas spoke slowly, and took out a medicine bottle from his waist.

"'Magic world' is a place full of contradictions. It seems rigorous and has a lot of academic taboos. However, although they will not be put on the surface, those taboos are also strong and weak. Some can be broken at will, and some are absolutely not allowed to touch. For example, 'magic that prohibits magic' is a category that must not be touched. And this kind of absoluteness is so absolute that even I dare not touch it blatantly after being warned. However, in this seemingly strict and severe situation, there are loopholes that can be easily circumvented. In other words, even if the 'Star Mark Emblem' is like a part of magic, both in terms of the overall and the details, it is a system slightly different from modern magic. But the 'magic that prohibits the power of the star mark' will not touch the taboo at all."

As Ritas spoke, he poured the sticky potion from the potion bottle into the lantern.
"But thanks to this, I didn't have to give up any of my previous research. Moreover, more information also allowed me to achieve many results and breakthroughs in a short period of time."

As the potion took effect, the soft white light from the lantern turned into an indescribable brownish yellow. A vomit-like mist of the same color, which was extremely uncomfortable, began to spread on the roof, and then enveloped Dr. Elson in an instant.

what do you want to say in the end?
Dr. Elson could not understand either Ritas' words or his behavior.

However, before he could ask, his complexion, which was slightly revealed through the edge of the bird-beak mask, turned visibly pale.

"Eh hey hey hey? What what what what what what!"

Dr. Elson screamed, struggled, and thrashed in panic because he was sinking into the ground and half of his body was stuck.

"So, I advised you."

Ritas said, shrugging.

It was only after entering this summer that Ritas realized how good the students were.

If nothing else, at least Earls's students wouldn't be so stupid as to ignore the advice of a full professor.

"Well, I'm not complaining. Professor Ritas, next time you catch a criminal, can you please not embed them into the wall or the ground? You may not feel anything when you put them in, but it will be very troublesome to remove them."

Not long after, in response to Ritas's signal flare, Blake Hepburn, the leader of the Guard Knights who arrived first, scratched his head as he looked at Dr. Elson, who was only half on the roof.

He said he was not complaining or trying to give himself a hard time, but he really didn't dare.

It's too scary to put people in the wall at any time.
After carrying "Bart and the Wall" back last time, the mages and doctors belonging to the Knights Templar were all amazed, shouting that they couldn't imagine what Professor Ritas had done, let alone reappearing.

The puzzle of "Bart and the Wall" has not been solved yet, and now there is a new challenge of "'Discarded Colors' and the Ground".
If there weren't so many people around, Blake would have wanted to kneel down and thank the professor for his mercy, thinking back to how frivolous he was in front of Professor Ritas before.

“He really chose it this time.”

"Yes, that's right. He went against the professor and tried to take advantage of his reputation. I can prove that he was courting death!"

Blake echoed again and again.

And Ritas realized that this matter could not be explained clearly.

Although Ritas had anticipated what strange things Dr. Elson would do and had prepared a plan for it, he never expected that things would turn out like this.
However, Dr. Elson was also helping Ritas test the effect of the "magic that prohibits the power of the star pattern". Moreover, Ritas noticed that although the power of the star pattern was gone, the red light and shadow on Dr. Elson's body and the sin mark on his face did not fade.

It seems that if the magic world can patch up the "magic that prohibits the power of star marks", Ritas will be able to study the "magic that prohibits the power of sin marks" again.

Walking to Dr. Elson's side, he tapped the red light with his hand, confirmed its intensity, and then Ritas easily broke it, then directly took off Dr. Elson's bird-beak mask.

And underneath the mask, there was indeed the youthful face of a young girl.

"Ah! No, don't look at me."

When Dr. Elson tried to escape, she actually still had the dagger in her hand. However, after being "embedded", she completely lost the will to resist, and the dagger fell to the ground early.

And now, she, who had tried to prevent Ritas from taking off the mask in vain, just covered her face with her hands and spoke in a voice as light as a mosquito.

"name?"

Ritas saw some things that looked like numbers on the mark of sin on Dr. Elson's face.

0102.

What is this? House number?
Dr. Elson covered his face, with one hand mainly covering the number and the other hand covering most of his face.

"Gin, Ginny."

"Ginny? Well, the time is now 23:11:37. Suspect Ginny, you are officially under arrest."

Instead of Knight Leader Black, who ran to the rooftop but seemed to be just chatting with the professor, Ritas announced,
"Based on the previous sentencing results of your accomplices for similar crimes, if you're lucky, you'll probably be released from prison in a thousand years."

Ritas, who had been very dissatisfied with the verdict on the three perverted brothers, stood up from his squatting position and spoke sarcastically in front of the leader of the Guard Knights.
