The Great Ice Bullet landed on the Magic University and hit several buildings in the university. [1] On one of the 3 story buildings, Mel was seen outside at the building collapse.

「That attack——it was too fast and powerful!」

One of the buildings where Mel's office was located was pierced by a great deal of ice and they started to crumble down. While looking at the building——

「Pre-President Mel. Are you all right?」

Yurika asked Mel as she grasp her knees.

「I'm fine, it's just a scratch. How about you Yurika? You jumped off from a very high place.」

「Uh, yes… My feet hurts a little bit.」

As soon as they saw the magic being shot to Mel's office, they immediately jumped off the building but they might have been injured at the process——that was their current status.

「Are you safe, President?!」

They heard a voice——

It was the chief of the security corps which recently came in her office to report about the findings of the watchtower. She quickly ran next to Mel with a worried look in her face.

「Are you hurt?」

「No, and you do know the situation, right?」

She nodded and explained to Mel briefly.

「Yes, I've contacted and confirmed about it from the security corps in each department about the sudden appearance of a t.i.tan Ogre and it has come to attack us. I also learned that two structures have been destroyed.」

「Two? So there's another one aside from this building?」

Fortunately, this university building which her office is located was a privately owned laboratory. There aren't many who would often come in except for Mel and she had erected a magic surveillance that can see anyone who comes in. The best thing is that only Mel and Yurika were present at the building during the attack. Only a few magic tools would be destroyed by this level of impact and the damaged buildings can be simply rebuilt. So, for Mel, the damage would be lessen if only this building was destroyed.

「And the other building?」

「Yes, it's the Auditorium and the damage is at the center.」

「The auditorium——are the students all right?」

Mel then asked her if it was the Auditorium where a number of students have gathered all together, the chief of the security corps answered lowly.

「The students who were successfully evacuated told me that no one were directly hit by the magic due to the protection magic that the president reinforced on the building. As for those students who weren't able to leave the place and were buried, the won't die from being caught in between the debris because of the lifesaving magic that will protect them.」[2]

All the buildings in the university were reinforced with magic. The infrastructures were meant to be their protection and s.h.i.+eld in case of emergency, without harming the students, the craftsmen built them with reinforcements. At the time of construction, it was done so that if the building falls, debris would softly fall on top of them and instead of burying the students it would become their shelter. This will allow them to be safely retrieve later.

「I can't leave it alone or it will be very dangerous. If you leave it as it is, it'll eat you up.」

As she speaks, Mel turned her gaze towards the plain where she saw a t.i.tan Ogre who was walking towards Magic University. Seeing this, the chief security frowned.

「Was the t.i.tan Ogre surrounded by miasma?」

「That's right, and it has evolved so much it can evoke the Evil G.o.d's magic.」

The chief gasped after hearing Mel's words.

「So that's the reason? I was wondering how the t.i.tan Ogre was able to evoke a strong kind of magic, but to think that it was like that…」

「I have seen many of this kind of monster during the war with the Evil G.o.d but not their evolved form because I've beaten them…」

And then, once a magic beast which ate the flesh of the Evil G.o.d appears, it would need the cooperation of the whole city to deal with it immediately. In the last few years, there have been a few numbers of cases of which the magic beast with the ability to invoke the magic of the Evil G.o.d appears so it's just natural that many people have no experience in encountering one.

「——And look at that… See those bloodshot eyes and drooping mouth——it's pretty obvious that it's starving. There's quite a number of humans here so it's very likely that it chose this place as its feeding ground.」

The t.i.tan Ogre is starving for some reason. Maybe due to the ma.s.sive reproduction of the Horned Moles but that doesn't matter now. What's imminent is what to do in the future to save people from being eaten.

「What are your instructions, President? I'm ready to inform every staffs as soon as I get your instructions.」

The chief locked her line of sight to Mel's while holding the magic tool. The situation was pressing. There's no time to think long and hard. And so——

「The non-combat staffs of the university will be the ones to guide the students on evacuating and rescuing the buried students. Meanwhile, please instruct the other security corps to join me aggro the t.i.tan Ogre. We will stall it!」

「Yes, President!」

「And please contact the Pioneer City that we're on an emergency. Tell them to use wolves and smokes to inform that we need strong men! The enemy is a t.i.tan Ogre who has been exposed to miasma and has evolved to be able to use the magic of the Evil G.o.d.」

「I understand!」

Immediately after relaying the instructions, the chief of the security corps transmits Mel's instructions using the magic tool. Mel also talked to Yurika afterwards.

「If I could ask of you Yurika, it would be a relief if you could help the university's staffs. You can use Alchemist Magic to help those who are injured and in dire need.」

「But, will President Mel be okay? The enemy is a t.i.tan Ogre with the power of miasma. Even a normal t.i.tan Ogre can kill ten or more A Rank magicians together. We're short in manpower. I will fight with you.」

Mel understand what Yurika was saying. In fact, with their current manpower, it would be hard to deal with a monster of this level. However——

「Yurika. You should your power to rescue the injured and buried students or the t.i.tan Ogre will eat them.」

The t.i.tan Ogre will eat those that can't move, those who are weakened. It has that much intelligence. Even its eyes now are following the students, those who are still waiting for help under the rubbles.

「First of all, I want to give priority on saving the lives of the students. So please, Yurika. Protect the students. We'll be all right. We don't lose to such kind of magic beast so easily.」

When Yurika heard those words, she nodded enthusiastically.

「Yes, President Mel! I'll help the students evacuate the university and come back here!」

Yurika ran with all her might. Mel turned her gaze from Yurika then back to the t.i.tan Ogre who is entering the university's area. Is it about 4 meters (13 inch) tall?! Mel felt a strong sense of intimidation.

「It imitated the Evil G.o.d like a student mimicking it's master, it even has a strong regenerative ability?」

——And to use the same magic as the Evil G.o.d. It was an Ice Magic as Mel observe, quite a high ranking and powerful magic. It's going to be a troublesome opponent, that's what she thought.

「President, preparations of the security corps and the staffs are complete!」

The chief of the security corps appeared, carrying not a magic tool for communication but a long sword. Afterwards, men and women armed with the same weapon as the chief of the security corps came running behind her. Mel felt so much spirit from them that she had no choice but to do her job whether it was troublesome or not. And so, Mel puts power to stomach and voice out with all her might.

「Now then everyone, we will make some time for the students to evacuate.」

「Yes!」

As soon as everyone gave their reply——

「U~o…… o……!!」

The voice of t.i.tan Ogre resounded.

It's giant figure can be see 2 meters ahead of them. Lumps of Ice Magic floats around the enemy, as if it was set for the battle. From that expression, Mel can feel hostility and murderous intent to kill them. Mel felt chills running on her back as she reminisces her enemy on the battlefield in the past. However——

「I promised I would stall you. So, I'll be accompanying you for a bit, t.i.tan Ogre. If possible, I'd like to break that core in your heart as well!」

Thus, the battle to defend the school began.
