Everyone waited patiently for Rin to begin speaking, and finally, he did. He began to speak.

"You guys were just looking at this very one-sidedly, forgetting that Shota is also the victim. Not that we'd solely use his family name to our advantage. Of course, it won't be a problem if he uses his family name for his own goodness sake. Again, Quito is trying to frame him so that with his family's influence, he can personally deliver the video to the military and convince them that it's enough evidence to act on. We'll just be under his umbrella, do you understand that now?"

"Yeah, that was very reasonable of you. He's a Grill, and as a Grill, he can use his family name any way he wants. I never thought of that. I guess you're smartest, after all," Nicole said, lowering her voice as she made the last statement, but Rin heard her very clearly.

Rin smiled gaily at that comment. It was the only thing he wanted to hear for now. Orah, on the other hand, was dying of jealousy.

Erix also agreed

    Shota had become quite popular among the students after yesterday's incident in the assembly ground.The clear proof of this was the attention he got when he walked around the hallway, finding Salvador's room.Shota didn't know Salvador's room exactly, so he had to ask the student around to figure out his roomAll the students he had asked along the way had given him only negative answers.Not only that, but for some reason, most of them seemed to fidget when he approached them, and he didn't know what the reason was. It was clear in their eyes and faces that they were afraid, but why was that?To him, he hadn't done anything to scare them, so he was quite uneasy with the way he was being treated by them.Not that he minded anyway, he just found it rather uncomfortable, that's all.As he walked past some, he could notice glances from every corner and some whispering sounds that he picked up on."Isn't this the monster? What is he looking for here? His room is nowhere around, so why is

    The moment Shota heard this, be it out of instinct or anger, he rushed at Zora and grabbed her violently by the neck. "What do you want, who sent you?! Tell me right now! What the hell did you want from Erix?! For God's sake, I'll break your neck if you don't tell me what I want to hear!" Shota shouted at Zora with a flaring nose. Zora, who hadn't quite recovered yet from Shota's previous attack, was frustrated when Shota caught her by the neck again. Although this time he didn't put too much pressure, it still hurts. Shota purposely didn't want to put too much pressure on Zora's neck so she could answer his questions while being under his control. "Calm down, buddy. I mean your friend no harm. Just so you know, I made an alliance with your friend, Erix. Calm down and I'll explain everything," Zora tried to clarify, but Shota's anger was growing by the second. Zora panicked because she knew she didn't stand a chance against Shota. She had seen what he had done to the second-year

    Inside Gen. Ryker's office, Gen. Ryker could be seen tapping his feet on the ground, deep in thought.His arched eyebrows and twitching facial expression reflected anger and concern.In any case, he should be angry after the report he got last night.Just yesternight, when he had finished the paperwork assigned to him by the commander-in-chief and wanted to enjoy his free time a little, a disturbing result came in.An unidentified student was found dead in the middle of the woods. Not only was he found dead but almost all the flesh of his body was ripped off by likely fire.The forest where the student's body was found didn't look burned in any way, so how come the student's body appeared burnt?As if that wasn't enough, another report came in.This time it was a suicide case. The student had severed her own neck in public, very vicious.He was still trying to find clues to the cause of the first death because that was the most important thing at the moment. The second death was pure s

    "Good job. You plan to increase your speed with your spatial ability, how nice," Erix muttered as he watched the boy run toward him at a tremendous but not overwhelming speed.Even without his boots, he could easily catch up to the boy's speed.As soon as the boy was close enough, he ducked his leg right at Erix, but Erix swiftly stepped aside and dodged the attack."Perfect, just what I wanted," Erix's opponent muttered with a smile before increasing his speed and executing a side leg kick when Erix least expected it.By the time Erix saw this attack, it was already too late to dodge, but since he had his speed boots on, he turned onto his back in a flash, causing the boy's leg to kick nothing but air."What the hell? When did he get so fast? I can barely see his movements now," the boy thought aloud in shock, looking at Erix as if he had seen a speedster."I kinda heard that, buddy. Don't worry, I'm just getting started," Erix said with a grin before rushing at the boy with a punch.

    Erix was a little taken aback when he heard what the unfamiliar boy said.A little boy like him couldn't possibly be the owner of the famous VR game, that was just impossible.No, this must be a joke. A random strange teenager couldn't possibly be the owner of one of the biggest game companies in the world, that's outlandish.Still, even if the boy was the owner of the game, why was he here? What does he want from him?"You've got to be kidding me, right? For you to be the owner of such a famous game, isn't that a bit over the stretch? Let's be honest, there's just no way you're the owner of this game," Erix said casually, hoping the boy would admit he was just joking, but the boy remained calm and collected, obviously unaffected by Erix's taunts."I'm not here to prove anything to you, dude. If you had any sense, you'd know that a random someone can't just interrupt your game out of nowhere, but that's just by the way. I came for something much more important, not just to prove myself

    Salvador's question made Shota pause before he could reach the door.Salvador wanted to know why he had decided to come himself.Well, he didn't actually know why he wanted to be the one to check on Salvador. The only reason he could think of was that he didn't want any of his friends to be alone with Salvador since he doesn't really trust him.But there was more to that, and he didn't know what it was."I came here personally because I don't trust you to be alone with my friends. I'll take my leave now," Shota replied without turning around to look at the boy.And right after saying that, he left the room."He'll never trust me, will he?" Salvador muttered and lay back on his bed.Last night was one of the worst moments of his life. Shortly after returning to his room last night, he heard a knock on his door.Without thinking twice, he went to the door and opened it. He had thought it was Erix or one of Erix's friends, but unfortunately, he didn't know he was about to suffer a pain

  • I Became A Vampire Demon   Dark planet(2)

    On a dark planet far from Earth, where the sun never shines, a seemingly young man was seen sitting comfortably on his throne in a castle in one of the eight unique cities.Although outwardly he was a young man, on the inside, he was just an old man who had lived for many centuries.He sat on his throne with his legs traversed. Judging by his face, he clearly didn't look happy.Well, not that he was ever happy. As a demon leader, he hardly had time to rest or take care of himself because he was always busy taking care of the city's affairs, so he was never happy. Every day many demons were put to bed, and every day many demons died as well, so it's a constant process of building up and breaking down, and the same goes for the resources needed to maintain them."I wonder what this idiot is doing on Earth right now," Lord Baagul thought aloud.This has become a habit. He always speaks out his thoughts whenever he was alone."Tania and Odin should be back by now. What's holding them? If

    Erix was furious.Shota's movements were so fast that he didn't even know when he got close enough to hit him.Erix wasn't angry at Shota, he was angry at himself. He had gotten distracted and was now paying for it with his face.He also broke his spinal cord as his back was the most affected by the impact.Several pieces of debris fell as Erix hit the wall. He had hit the exact spot he hit earlier after Shota's blow.[-20 HP][Blood bank auto-activated][40/40 HP]Erix's injuries, which had been slow to heal, now began to heal faster. A few seconds later, all the injuries on his body healed, including his broken spinal cord.Erix lifted him off of the ground when he felt that all the injuries on his body were gone. The reason he didn't get up right away was that he didn't want the people there to see his unnatural healing ability.He had already caused quite a stir when he displayed his blood slash, and if he added another one now, it might arouse unnecessary suspicion and he didn't w

    Were you following me?

    In the fifth city of the planet of demons, the darkness was absolute. The only source of light was the dimly red light coming from the sky. Amidst this eerie atmosphere, a young lady could be seen walking down the street. Her long red hair fluttered in the chilly wind as she made her way to her destination.The demons on the streets recognized her instantly. She was none other than Tania, the famous saintess of the tenth city. Her reputation preceded her, and the demons knew her for her unparalleled strength and her unwavering respect for the demon laws. They were surprised to see her walking down the street of the fifth city at this hour, and they couldn't help but wonder what brought her out of her abode.As Tania walked past them, she maintained a cold and expressionless face. Her demeanor was as stoic as ever, and it was impossible to guess what was going on in her mind. She continued walking, lost in thought until she finally arrived in front of a modern and decent bungalow.Wi

    Lord Julian led Erix, Shota, and Orah up a grand staircase to the second floor of his regal mansion. The walls were adorned with paintings of famous battles and landscapes. Once they reached the top, he turned and gestured towards a door on the left."This will be your room," Lord Julian said. "I hope it'll suffice for your stay here."When they entered the room, they admired the room.The furniture was made from the finest wood on the planet and decorated with intricate engravings. There was a large three-poster bed, a vanity table with a mirror, and a fireplace to keep them warm during the colder nights.Shota nodded with admiration "It's habitable. Not bad."Orah examined the room carefully, old habits from his training, and started to make a list of any potential security risks. When he was finished, he said, "It's perfect. Better than that crappy rubbish from earlier."Lord Julian noticed the absence of Scott and raised an eyebrow. "Where is the servant goblin? Did he not wish to

    Dump house?

    The ruthless demon towered over the cowering goblin, its eyes glowing red in the dim light of the forest.The goblin had lost all of his comrades in the battle that had been raging for minutes and was now at the mercy of the demon that had led the attack."Please, spare me," the goblin pleaded, his voice trembling with fear. "I surrender."The demon let out a deep, thundering laugh. "Very wise of you, little goblin," Orah growled. "You have made the right choice. I will let you live. But there are consequences."Instead of killing the goblin, however, the demon did something unexpected. He looked the goblin straight in the eye and muttered words in a language the goblin did not understand.Suddenly, the goblin felt a strange sensation coursing through his body. He paled, but at the same time, a strange sense of loyalty blossomed within him. He looked up at Orah with wide eyes and suddenly realized what had just happened."You... you manipulated my mind just like your friend did with Ro

    Goblin servants.

    Erix heaved a sigh when he heard what Orah said. Orah had deliberately spoken of the rebellion to give him no choice but to agree with his words, and it had really worked.Definitely, they wouldn't let the goblins go after learning of their plan for fear of being exposed. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean they must kill the goblins to silence them. There are other ways to silence them without actually killing them.As much as Erix had the urge to kill the goblins for the sake of exp, he didn't want to miss the opportunity to gain loyal servants who undoubtedly would bring more benefits than just the immediate gain of exp.Thus, instead of complying with Orah's appeal, he acted differently."No, we won't kill them. They'll be useful to us if we have them as servants. I don't want us to waste them by killing them," Erix told his friends."How are we going to tame these losers anyway? Why don't we kill them now to save ourselves the trouble of doing that in the future?" Shota spoke up, soun

    Rebellion?

    Erix and his friends delved deeper and deeper into the forest as they talked to relieve their boredom.However, that was only until they came upon a group of seven goblins, armed to the teeth.They stopped a short distance away from the goblins before they were seen.The goblins carried spears, bows, arrows, and many other vicious weapons."What should we do now? Go back?" Orah asked in a very low tone."These guys are armed. They are not like any other goblins we have encountered so far. Maybe we should leave before they see us," Erix asserted. In his opinion, he found it pointless to waste their strength fighting the goblins."Come on, it'll be fun to fight these losers. Only I can take them out at once," Shota said with excited eyes. However, seeing that none of his friends reciprocated this enthusiasm, he sighed and said, "Fine, if that's what you want, then... Ahhh!!!" Shota cried out and jumped up in startlement.A few seconds later, a rat ran out from under the ground where he h

    In the portal room inside military base two, a purple opening appeared from which five soldiers emerged.The soldiers were the military team that had gone to look for the students who had gotten lost inside a beast planet. However, they had returned empty-handed, believing that the students were no longer there.They saw it with their own eyes as the students dissolved into red, invisible dust."Everyone, except Leo, can go back to their domains and rest. I'll report to the General Staff with Leo," General Stanley announced shortly after they arrived.They all nodded and went on their way. But all of them except Leo.General Stanley looked at Leo and asked, "Are you sure you want to do this? Roaming about Camuti alone is dangerous, you could even die there."Although he was always envious of Leo and his impeccable way of doing things, he didn't wish him death.Leo's face was cold and expressionless. He only nodded but said nothing."If you say so. Just know that you don't have to kill

    Boring Dinner.

    Josh was a little startled when he heard that. He didn't know why, but Erix's words made him anxious and frightened. He tried to put up a calm facade, but that immediately crumbled as Erix approached him.Erix walked towards him calmly and with a cold expression. He didn't look excited or angry.'But he's only human,' a thought popped into Josh's head. 'What if this is only a technique to intimidate and disorient you? He may have super healing, but he's not invulnerable to death, so be smart. Kill him when you get the chance.'Josh's courage immediately picked up as this thought crossed his mind.He got into a fighting stance and laughed nervously, "Come on, little human. You can't scare me."Erix chuckled when he heard this. He pronto activated his light wing boots and transported himself behind Josh, invisible as a bullet."How about now, are you afraid of me?" Erix asked in a whisper, chuckling. He wasn't attacking Josh yet. He just wanted to scare him a little.Josh was terrified
