'Get ready, Erix. I think some people are after you.' Lena sounded a little anxious as she notified Erix.Erix, who already knew something like this could happen, wasn't the least bit surprised.'Even inside the school grounds, they're already following me, how nice,' Erix muttered subconsciously.[Light wing boots activated.]At that moment, a pair of black boots settled over Erix's leg.'Wow, I feel more nimble than usual.' Erix got the impression, and it wasn't a lie.The boot wasn't just meant to change the user's speed. It also improves the agility of the person wearing it.'Feels so good, doesn't it?''Yes. I love it. I feel like I'm floating. My whole body feels lighter than ever before. These boots are unique, to be honest,' Erix responded.'He feels that way, even though the active ability isn't yet activated. Maybe he'll start to understand how great the boots are if he uses them when the active ability is activated,' Lena said not to Erix's hearing.To Erix, she was just mut
[You have received an unmerited favor.][An unmerited favor pass was used][Unmerited favor pass: 1 left]Erix smiled with fulfillment when he saw those messages. This only means that he succeeded in commanding Mira to kill herself.Looking at Mira's face, she seemed expressionless, without any form of emotion. She was no longer herself. Erix's order was the only thing on her mind at the moment.'I think you should leave now. The guy is just a few steps from your back,' Lena suggested.'Okay, I'm assuming that the moment I leave here, she'll immediately carry out my order.''Yes. In fact, you're the reason why she hasn't killed herself yet. The moment you leave here now, she'll immediately do as you ordered,' Lena elucidated.'Alright, I'll go.'The boy was just right behind him, so he decided to follow the path ahead.'I'm sure he'll follow me as soon as he catches a glimpse of me. I sure will lure him out into the woods and finish him off there.'Just as he had planned, the boy spott
As Rin had been instructed, he set out for the third-year dormitory immediately after the 8:00 p.m. bell rang.When he arrived, he looked for a good place to stay and waited for Quito's men to pick him up.While waiting outside the dormitory, he tried to get organized as best he could before meeting Quito.He did not want Quito to notice anything strange in his behavior, so he tried as best he could to keep his emotions in check.Rin thought he had gotten over the terror caused by what had happened that night. That was his thought until it dawned on him after arriving at the place he was to go that he still had those fears inside him.What had happened the night of his first encounter with Quito had been the most traumatic moment of his life.The anguish he experienced that night was still deeply embedded in his heart and mind.He tried to remind himself that he had been tortured back then for refusing to accept their order, but now things were different. He had agreed to work for them
Erix was overjoyed at the sight of the messages before his eyes. After fulfilling the promise he had made to the deceased girl, he instantly leveled up, which was a shock to him.He hadn't expected that fulfilling a promise would result in such a great reward.Not only that, but he also earned 500 points after killing Mira and the boy. That was good progress for him.When he remembered that only a few level-ups were separating him from his main Quest, he wanted to cry out in joy.'By the looks of it, I might reach level 10 before next week,' Erix thought cheerfully.'Maybe. But have you taken a look at your status screen to see how many exp you need for your next level up?' Lena asked.'Nope, I'll do that later. Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a million exp for my next level up,' Erix replied casually.Looking at the corpse next to him, he was surprised at what the boy's body now looked like.Although the boy had only been hit by five fireballs, his body looked as if he had had
[Host: Erix Miller][Race: Demi lesser-demon vampire][Level: 8][Demon energy: 350/350][Demon regeneration: 80 Demon energy/25 min][Experience points]--[Quest point: 35/100]--[exp: 600/10000][Health Attributes]--[Mana: 250/250]--[HP: 40/40][Physical Attributes]--[Strength: 33]--[Agility: 33]--[Stamina: 23]--[Vitality: 25][Mental Attributes]--[Mind: 200]--[Intelligence: 400][Attribute points]--[0 points available to distribute][Skill: 8 active skills][Skill points: 3]Erix concentrated mainly on the number of experience points required for his next level-up.When he saw what was on the screen, he was neither very surprised nor sad. He needed at least 9400 exp to level-up again.'I'm not surprised.''Honestly, there is no magical way to level up. It's really just hard work. You work hard and earn better exp,' Lena interjected.'I know. That's exactly what I plan to do anyway. I'm gonna increase my input to get better output.'Erix then looked at his stat page. All his
"Yes, he did," Rin replied with a nod."Then what is it about? Come on, tell me quickly," Erix said impatiently."He just wanted to frame you guys, but I think he's up to more than that. He wants to frame you guys for murder. You know how murder crimes are punished, don't you? That's what he's trying to frame you guys for? He planned to commit the crime in the woods and then tell me to lure you guys there, and by the time that happens, the soldiers must have already been on their way there.""What the fuck? That's a whole mess of stupid plans. I can't believe he wasted so much time just to come up with something so petty. He must have other ulterior motives. This really can't be his plan," Erix snapped aggressively. It doesn't make sense."Yeah, that's what I thought, but the problem is what his other plan is. He's cunny as hell. I can't predict him at all. He always covers up his feelings with a smile. I don't know what his real plan is. This plan is too insignificant for him to take
After some time had passed, Shota's injury was completely healed and he returned to the seat of control.Rigel's tantrums didn't stop even after that, but he had no choice but to endure them. It had been that way since they shared the same body. Not that he disliked it though.Being alone wasn't the best option, so he was glad Rigel was with him.When he returned to his body, it was already midnight and his friends had gone to sleep.He didn't want to wake him, so he decided to leave them until morning. Besides, he had learned their plan while he was in the darkroom inside his consciousness, so anything they'd tell him again would just be a formality."I'm thirsty," Shota muttered, hopping down from his bed.He reached for a water bottle on the table in the corner of the room.Grabbing it, he gulped down the entire contents in one gulp."These guys are really getting on my nerves. They fucking dare to attack me. I'll deal with them when we're free from all the trouble we're in right no
Leo had entered the class; the proof of this was the sudden silence that reigned in the class.Erix raised his gaze to the entrance and saw Leo stepping into the class with an expressionless face as usual.He wasn't smiling, and he didn't look angry either. His face was simply blank of emotion.As soon as he stood in front of the class, he cleared his throat and began."Hello everyone, I see some of you from the ability class are already here to join us. I suppose most of you who are already members of this class will be wondering why some new students have joined us, but I can't answer that question. The military has made this decision, I'm just an employee here. From today on, there will be no more weapons and ability classes. Both classes have been merged and will be taught by one instructor, and that is me. I hope that's clear?"Leo didn't bat an eye as he made this announcement. He sounded as professional as ever.The whole class went into an uproar after Leo finished talking, and

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
