The worst and strongest villain. I became a narrow-eyed character Arsene Adel. DBT,Korean,Novel,Translation,Academy,NEVDA,Fantasy,Possession,Assassin
It was not a difficult story to understand.
I have a lot of mana among the students, and if I could save Samuel by giving him a small amount of mana, it would not be a losing deal.
Just by saving Samuel, the Sytan faction would definitely give me bonus points.
Because Idea’s order was to protect the talented students first.
However.
“Doesn’t Ms. Fron have more mana than me? Luna’s is not small either.”
Let’s put Luna aside for now.
Fron is so bad at fighting that it’s hard to watch, but her mana is greater than mine.
Perhaps the amount is comparable to Samuel’s, or even greater.So it would be much more helpful for his recovery to parasitize Fron than me.
At my words, Fron grumbled as if he was offended.
"Somehow, I feel like you're insulting me."
"It's just your imagination."
I lightly ignored Fron’s irritation and stared at Thorn.
[ ……. ]
Then Thorn fell silent.
However, he had no choice but to open his mouth under my continued silent pressure.
[...Don't you?]
“I can’t hear you well.”
At this point, I was getting a little annoyed.
For what reason did he not parasitize Luna or Fron?
As I and the girls stared at him, demanding an answer, Thorn’s face turned red.
Soon, he spat out an answer.
[...I-I might see things I shouldn't. I don't have eyes, but when I parasitize someone, I can share their vision...]
Samuel’s answer.
At this, I and the girls looked at each other at the same time.
And soon after, we understood what Samuel meant and made expressions of nausea.
“Ugh, what a pervert.”
“……This is the worst.”
“Samuel……”
[ Y-you guys...!! ]
Samuel roared furiously at our contemptuous gazes.
I coldly cut him off.
“Pervert, be quiet.”
[ ……. ]
Samuel shut his mouth.
Only then did I realize the urgency of the situation and shouted at the students.
“We need to leave this place now. Reinforcements from the Imperial Academy will be here soon.”
The human students headed to the Imperial Academy through the Return Scroll.
It would take quite some time to get here from there, so the humans hadn’t arrived yet.
But it was only a matter of time.
The powerhouses of the Imperial Academy would soon be here.
“Let’s go.”
Fron and the students agreed to my suggestion to leave this dangerous place quickly.
“But where are we going? I thought the Gate opens tomorrow, not today.”
“For now, I know of a secret place that the human instructor hid. We should be able to hold out there for a day.”
A secret laboratory that Besaha had created, hidden from the other instructors.
We could hide there, even with the Demon students.
It was hidden deep in the forest, so it would take time for the humans to find it.
Above all, if we activated the laboratory’s camouflage magic, it would be difficult to detect.
It was a device set up by a 5th Class or higher Magician, after all, even though he had died by my hand.
“Then let’s go there.”
[ No, there’s something we need to do first. ]
Samuel interrupted.
“What do you need to do, Mr. Pervert?”
[……If you call me that one more time, I’ll kill you. Anyway, I need to eat the corpses of the humans to recover my body.]
Samuel pointed to the corpses of the human students scattered on the ground with his thorns.
“Hmm, how long will that take?”
[10 seconds is enough.]
Clack, clack, clack-.
Countless thorns sprouted from my palm.
The thorns began to devour the corpses of the humans.
However, Samuel seemed reluctant to eat Demons, so he didn’t touch the corpses of the Sytan students.
Luna, who had been watching the whole thing, opened her mouth.
“……Shouldn’t we bury them?”
“We can’t. There’s no time.”
If they were alive, I would have taken care of them.
But I couldn’t take care of those who were already dead.
Because the instructors of the Imperial Academy would barge in a few dozen minutes.
“…….”
Luna bit her lower lip at my cold reply and spoke to Thorn.
“Then, at least take them with you.”
[I’ll say this in advance, I can devour them, but I don’t have the ability to move them.]
It wasn’t just Samuel.
The other cadets were also badly injured, so they were in no condition to take care of their comrades’ bodies.
Soon, Luna shook her head heavily.
“……I understand.”
“Then, let’s get going.”
I looked away from Luna.
It wasn’t that I didn’t understand her, but I couldn’t sympathize with her.
To me, the living were more important than the dead.
However, my mind wasn’t at ease.
My heart ached as if it was being pricked by needles when I saw Luna and the cadets who had begun to shed tears.
I pretended not to notice that emotion and accepted Fron’s support.
And I became lost in thought.
‘Battles are always gruesome.’
……Someday, Luna will have to adapt to it as well.
But.
Is it my greed to hope that that time will never come?
The day when her emotions will wear out and eventually become dull and crumble…….
It will probably come soon.
