Erix got startled the moment someone suddenly pulled his hands from behind without prior notice.But that was until he heard that particular voice he has been avoiding since today.At that moment, he realized he had been caught up in the catastrophe he had been trying hard to avoid.The person was none other than Natasha. When Erix looked up at her face, She looked a little angry and impatient.Erix didn't protest against her. He helplessly let himself be dragged into the obsolete class.The moment they got inside, Natasha locked the door and turned over to him.She wasted no time and commenced with the conversation."Let's not waste our time here, okay? First, why are you avoiding me?" Natasha asked with an intimidating voice that would have scared him if it was his old self.But right now, he wasn't afraid a bit after he heard that.Though he was a bit nervous about how all this would go, he tried not to let it show on his face.The situation would only worsen if he showed his fears,
After Erix heard Nicole's concept, he realized that lying was useless.The girl has already hypothesized possible facts showing he was unusual, so lying would make him look even more suspicious.'I don't have a choice. I should probably tell her the truth now,' Erix thought helplessly.'Wait, I have a plan. Well, not certain about it. Let's say it's under probability. It might work and it might also fail. I just want to let you know that once this plan fails, you will have no other choice but to massacre her. You can do that, right?' Lena suggested.'I won't know if you don't tell me. Let me know about the plan first,' Erix replied.Lena quickly gave Erix a straightforward explanation of her plan. It was simple and short.Her plan was for him to use his charm to make the girl forget everything she knew about him.After the explanation, Erix willingly agreed. Not that he had another choice though. Regardless, he was a little skeptical about the killing aspect, but he still agreed.More
Meanwhile, Shota, Nicole, and Rin headed to the boy's room immediately after school dismissal.While there, they waited for Erix to arrive. As they waited, ten minutes passed, yet, Erix didn't show up."Are you sure he is coming straight here? What if he's still with that demon boy?" Nicole broke the long silence that had been residing in the room ever since the moment they got in."I doubt so. He was supposed to be heading here immediately after dismissal. He will surely be here, undoubtedly," Rin reassured everybody, but Nicole still wasn't convinced."Who knows, that demon might have taken him out of the school while we are here sitting and waiting like pups," Nicole countered with a sigh."Watch it, miss. Rin said he would be here and so let's just wait," Shota snapped at Nicole, the moment he heard her last statement."Stop it guys, I don't want us to have a problem. We shouldn't fight each other, we are on the same team," Rin reprimanded."We aren't fighting, are we miss?" Shota
Along the way, as Nicole returned to her room, she had her palms placed on her flushed cheeks as she walked.Her face was bright red as she kept reflecting on what Rin said.She had intentionally worn additional makeup today. She didn't know why but she just felt like doing it. This morning, she just had that impression, so without having any side-thought whatsoever in mind, she had applied extra makeup."That guy sure knows how to be brazen with words, tch," She muttered as she clicked her tongue in embarrassment.'Maybe he was right, I might have actually had someone in mind while applying extra makeup,' She thought, looking all flushed and rosy.She reached her room after a few minutes' walk. The girls' dorm wasn't that far from the boy's dorm, so the trek in between wasn't that much of a distance.Grabbing the doorknob, she entered her room real quick and shut the door close quickly.Looking over to the side, she saw her roommate. Currently, only two people were occupying the r
"Then let's get this fight started already," Orah declared with a smile. Erix quickly got into stance when he heard that. Orah equally did the same. In this fight, he will be going against a demon noble, so he needs to be fully prepared. He took out his gauntlet from his wristwear.He could have used the Rabi gauntlet but he needed a decent stat increment. And that would only be possible if he uses the Tigclaw.He also activated his chest armor. That one gave him an extra stat increment separately.Putting those two on, he felt slightly stronger and more energetic than his usual body."C'mon, attack me," Orah proclaimed with a smile.Both of them were about 20 meters away from each other.The moment Orah said that Erix activated three blood slash attacks and projected them toward him.Orah smiled heartily when he saw that coming. 'As expected, since he is not that good in hand combats, he will depend greatly on his dark aura,' Orah thought as he drew out his fists ready to bang off
Back in the dorm room, Shota and Rin were still talking about Orah.Shota said he still can't believe a demon was nice like that. It was too good to be true. He believed Orah had come with a hidden agenda and that was what he was trying to make Erix understand, but the latter kept insisting the boy was genuine simply because his skill told him so.'How do we know this skill is consistently accurate and reliable?' Shota thought. Actually, this was what he worry about, what if the skill was giving them the wrong info, they would end up trusting the wrong person.Anyway, he can do nothing, Erix's mind was already made up. He would just stick around and watch the boy closely to see if he would find anything suspicious about him."I'm heading out to training now. I think it's time for my training," Rin said as he got up from his bed."How far have you progressed with your training? Are you strong enough to kick their asses now?" Shota asked jokingly."Not yet. But I will, soon. See," Rin
"Here, grab my hand," Orah said, pulling out his hand to Erix.Erix took his hand and got up.Orah had wasted no time punching him when he tried to get at his back a while ago."You have a very solid fist, man. That was the hardest punch I have ever received in my life," Erix remarked after he got up on his feet."I told you, learn the moves properly before making a move. C'mon, let's resume the training. I won't allow you to interfere until I'm done tutoring you, alright?" Orah said.After that, he began displaying a series of methods one would use to attain proficiency using hand-to-hand combat.Seeing all this, Erix realized how weak he was compared to demons. What Orah said was true, he might be strong and skillful when battling with a human, but in terms of fighting a real demon, he was nothing.All of this made him realize one thing, nothing can surpass decent hand-to-hand combat experience."I'm done showing you all I know about hand-to-hand combat. It's completely up to you no
Two hours later, Natasha began to flutter her eyes open. She was feeling very weak and dropsy. Slowly, she began opening her eyes until they were fully opened.At first, she didn't recognize where she was as the place looked obsolete and unfamiliar but thinking back to what happened before she passed out, her eyes widened in horridness.She quickly jumped down from the desk she was laying on. Her face showed anger and wrath.She clearly remembers everything that transpired before she passed out. Even what Erix told her at the point of going unconscious, she had it all in mind.How the fuck did he leave her here, inside an old dusty class?"That moron!" She exclaimed in anger."I need to calm down, right now. I should find him first. I swear, I'll punch him in the face once I see him. He should have at least taken me to the clinic, but he just left me here like I'm some slum.""I'll deal with that bastard once I see him!" Natasha grumbled angrily before she dashed out of the classroom.
