"Really? If that's the case, then the problem is solved," Erix said with a smile.'Why did you say that? Tell me it's not what I think,' Lena said, deep in thought."I don't know what you're thinking, but whatever it's, it's obviously not going to work," Erix replied firmly. "Natasha is the perfect person for this stuff. She's the only person I know with fire ability. I plan to drag out the fight so she's forced to use more fire abilities and eventually use up her mana."'Understand me correctly, I'm not against you fighting Natasha. I just don't want you to get too attached to her,' Lena clarified."Why do I get the feeling you hate Natasha for no reason?" Erix blurted out without mincing words. He couldn't stand it any longer, so decided to just say it.'Come on, stop acting childish. I barely know this girl to have anything against her. I'm just concerned for your safety. I hate the fact that she knows your biggest secret. She exudes something that makes me uncomfortable. She looks
Back at school, Rin had just finished his training and was on his way back to his room.He doesn't need that much time to train because of his mental capacity, coupled with the fact that he dislikes pushing himself beyond his limit.He knew his limit very well. Once he reaches it, he stops whatever he's trying to attain. By doing so, he won't disrupt his seat of understanding.Surprisingly, after today's training, he managed to increase his level to level 6. His progress was extremely fast but it wasn't anything less than what he had expected.He knew his capability, so he wasn't so surprised when all that happened."Shota was right, if I keep growing at this rate, very soon I'll surpass those bastards. Gosh, I can't imagine the look that will be on Quito's face after I beat his arse," Rin said with a grimace.He didn't like Quito in the first place, but his hatred for him ran deep after receiving that torture from him that night.In no time, he was already in front of the dorm's entra
Paul quickly toward Erix with his two mutated hands extended horizontally.After what Erix had done to him a while ago, he was so angry that he wanted to grab Erix and tear out his flesh with his claws, but that was just impossible.'I'm not holding back this time. You're more ominous than I first thought,' Paul thought with a wrinkled nose.Erix, on the other hand, prepared for a counterattack as soon as he dodged the boy's attack.When he saw that both of Paul's hands had been transformed, he quickly had a change of plan.At first, he didn't want to use his demon abilities, but after seeing the boy's first wave of attacks, he knew he wouldn't just win the fight with brute strength alone.He had to add something to his brute strength.But as much as he needed to supplement his power, he also didn't want to use too many demon abilities.After careful thought and weighing the pros and cons, he finally decided to use the second function of the eye of sin skill and demon fist skill.He ha
Erix was at a loss for words when he saw the messages before him.One came from his system, asking him to accept Zora's alliance, which he hadn't even seen.The second one came from the game menu and said that Zora wanted to talk to him in private.What would she possibly want from him? He didn't know her and they had nothing to do with each other, so what would she want from him?As Erix thought about what she might want from him, a thought crossed his mind and he began to laugh."If she wants me dead, I don't think that's possible. This is a game. She's going to have to meet me outside the game to make that happen."'Are you sick in the head? Haven't you thought about how the system wouldn't possibly ally you with someone who wants you dead?' Lena admonished."Of course, you should be sure of that. After all, you're the system,'' Erix sneered.'Believe me, I'm not. I'm only in control of the things you tell me to do. Without your command, I'm completely non-functional.'"Well, that's
[Yes]Erix quickly pressed the yes option and instantly he disappeared from the white room.The next moment he found himself in an open gray wasteland. High up in the sky was a never-ending space of total darkness.Erix looked up at the sky and wondered how deep the dark space was. It looked endless.For some reason, his surroundings were brightly lit, even though the sky was pitch black.The gray wasteland was so vast that he couldn't gauge its end.'Where is this place?'For a moment Erix had already forgotten where he was, but a moment later he heard a monotone male voice reminding him that he was still in the game."You have arrived at your battle area. The battle will begin any moment. Good luck, sinful child," The monotone voice announced."But I can't find any beast here," Erix said, looking around.'Soon beasts will appear. Wait a little longer, be patient,' Lena uttered.A few seconds later, a screen appeared high above the dark roof. [The battle will begin in ten seconds.][
Erix safely returned to school having done exactly what Rin had instructed him to do.Of course, the person following Erix didn't stop until Erix had finally passed through the school gate before he then stopped.The person following Erix didn't try anything stupid because people were always around them, so Erix was able to safely make it back to school.When Erix entered the school grounds, he quickly rushed to his room. He was curious to know what really happened, and why someone had followed him all the way from the city to school.When he entered his room, he was surprised to see almost all of his friends there. It was very unusual to see all his friends, including Orah, gathered together without him being there.They didn't look like they were happy with the gathering, as they all had a worried look on their faces.The moment they saw Erix come through the door, they all breathed a sigh of relief."What the hell is going on here? Why is everyone here? What are you doing here, Ora
After Nicole left the boys' room, she headed straight to her room.She had to do what Erix asked her to do. She was curious as to why Erix wanted to meet with Celia's ex-BFF, but that wouldn't stop her from doing what she was asked to do.For some reason, she was glad that she was helping Erix for the first time. She didn't know why, but she was determined to finish this job, so took it very seriously.She couldn't wait to see the smile on Erix's face after she successfully completed the job.'Dad, I don't understand what you meant when you told me to be wary of these guys. All I know is that they're my friends and I love them. I'd never do anything to hurt them, and I'm sure they'd do the same for me,' Nicole thought as she continued on her way back to her room.Later after she gave her father the names of her friends, he called her back and gave her a stern warning."I don't know how you became friends with these guys, nor do I know your relationship with them, but all I ask is that
'He didn't even bother to look at me again or say goodbye. Maybe I'm not the type of girl he talks to,' Nicole thought, a little sad.A few minutes after Jude left the room, the bathroom door opened and a black-haired girl stepped out.She was wearing only a short white towel with a small hair bonnet that was barely covering her hair entirely. Water was still dripping down from her hair.She was of the same height and builds as Nicole. Only that she looked a little more mature and less dense.She entered the room and went straight to her dressing room and began to change. She didn't give a damn about Nicole's presence nor did she bother looking in her direction.After a few minutes of putting on something more decent, she spoke up."What are you doing here, Nicole? Did she send you here?"Mira still had her back turned to Nicole when she asked that question."Wha...What are you talking about?" Nicole asked, rather nervous.'Has she figured it out already? Does she already know about ou

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
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
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
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
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
