The Viscount’s Worthless Second Son Attacks With a Confession at the Academy - Chapter 42
Episode 42. Duke Mayer. (6)
“Don’t spare anything, pour everything!!”
Richard was shocked.
He has also handled all weapons, so he must know better than anyone how powerful these weapons called ‘guns’ are.
However, he was surprised to see that the powerful weapon did not work.
“Kyaaa!!!!!”
No matter how many bullets he poured and the grenades hit him directly, the demon only suffered minor wounds.
What’s more, those scars disappear in an instant, leaving no traces.
“Stop shooting!!”
In the end, Ricard had no choice but to stop his fire.
I know without saying that this ideal is just a waste of bullets.
“Kikikik. Gu hajui wa hui wa!”
The demons shout something, but none of us understand.
Perhaps that’s the devil’s language.
Among humans, no one will be able to understand it except Johanna, a saint.
Only the Schlageter children began to flinch a little.
“Lena! Take the kids and get back for a while!!”
“Yes!”
The devil’s dominance is stronger than expected.
They seem like lesser demons who couldn’t even become nobles with just the energy they felt, but with this level of dominance, they’re at least viscount-level.
I won’t take the Schlageter kids away right now, but it could be dangerous if the fight is prolonged.
Fortunately, Lena gets out safely with her children.
Proof that I still have the right to command.
“You did a good job crawling out of the omphalos. These worms.”
“You know that place? I thought it was forgotten in this day and age.”
Every demon answers my words.
Yes, I’m probably the only one who knows about omphalos.
“I know that. A belly button full of grime left behind by worms.”
“Huhuhu… Look at us as a human being and get rid of it…. I guess I have to tell you where you guys are.”
The devil replies with a self-deprecating smile.
And then, the hole begins to open.
“G bu! Ola ho ja kata ha!!”
Oh, I heard a sentence I knew for the first time.
Roughly, die like worms, humans! Was it
I saw it several times in the game.
Of course, it was only when we met in the third year.
It was a shout every time I made that black hole.
It’s a new feeling.
“Familiars are running out!! Everyone ready to fire!”
The explanation has already been completed.
With the remaining firepower of the mercenary corps, it can surely last for more than 30 minutes against the familiar that jumps out of that hole.
If the Schlageter children were there, they would last for hours.
It must be dangerous.
Still, I can trust you.
“Leave it to me. Richard. If I bring the demons, call the children.”
“Yes!!”
From noble mtl dot com
Raise the darkness very slightly.
They react even if they don’t raise even 10% of their strength.
“You guys?!”
The demons are engulfed in joy.
He must be like that too.
To them, my ability is firewood that can burn the closed doors of Omphalos.
You wouldn’t have thought you’d be able to run into me in a place like this.
If things went the way the original story did, they might have achieved their long-cherished wish by using my dead body and the core of another person they found.
“Follow me and see.”
This is what they say, but I’m 100% sure they’ll follow.
However, they took me as bait.
There’s no way you’ll fail.
I started running as fast as I could.
You have to keep enough distance.
No one should get involved in our fight.
More than that, don’t let my fight get caught.
“Kyaaa!!”
As expected, the guys start following me.
If you see gunshots echoing after that, it must be that familiars are pouring out of the black hole.
I ran for about 10 minutes while maintaining a close interval.
They know I’m luring them.
That’s why I didn’t forcibly close the distance and followed him.
I hope I don’t run away.
They judged that if I ran seriously, they wouldn’t be able to catch me.
I feel better than I thought.
As expected, demons with titles.
“I wonder if this will be enough.”
When I stop, the demons do the same.
There is zero presence around you.
There is nothing but me and the demons, at least as far as my line of sight goes.
“The grave…. Found it….”
“What are you saying, these guys are going to die soon?”
Swallow the finest pills.
It’s a pill I try many times, but seeing something new every time I take it, I must have become a great drug addict.
I have no intention of prolonging my time against the devil.
Full throttle from the start.
Dark Fully Unlocked.
(Darkness complete)
The shadow received from Emma is converted into darkness.
The energy was once purified by Emma’s core, so I didn’t lose my mind like when I fought the bishop, but
A horn sprouts from its forehead.
Her skin turns black and black tears flow down.
“Ah…. Devil!?”
The demons scream in surprise at the way I am changing.
Do you know? Demons
The easiest way to catch a demon.
Very easy.
It is
“Beat it until it is defeated by the power of the devil.”
You don’t even have to control it.
Just let go of the string of reason.
“How does a human get that power?!”
“I don’t know, bastard!”
I jumped at the guy who screamed and simply hit him on the head.
Puck.
The demon’s head is completely broken, and all kinds of things pour out.
I give the same blow to the guy next to me who still can’t even react.
Puck.
As expected, the head is completely destroyed and blown away.
However, their heads start to regenerate.
Devils are beings that regenerate infinitely as long as they have power.
Magical power, fighting spirit, holy power, even their strength cannot stop its regeneration.
Goro.
Crush.
Break again.
Destroy
Destroy
Crush.
“That…. Stop!?”
“Down.”
It breaks without rest.
Break the demon with demonic power just for destruction.
The destructive power is not enough with speculation.
Magic takes too long to refine.
The divine power is pushed out of the upper castle.
All you need is one thing.
Demon Power.
That’s the easiest way to deal with demons.
It’s only 3 minutes.
The time it took for them to disappear after becoming ashes.
********************
It was a bit risky.
If they regenerated just a little faster, or if they were just one step higher in the hierarchy, I might not have been able to kill them within the time limit.
If the Schlageter children and the mercenaries to deal with the Familiar hadn’t come or been even a little late, it would have been me who would have been defeated.
It’s only natural that I can’t do everything myself in the first place.
The demon dies completely and the remaining ashes are blown away by the wind.
Now what I do is simple.
We need to find Duke Jonas.
Duke Jonas must have mistaken the devil for a demon.
In the first place, there are many cases where the two are not distinguished.
We need to find out why the duke joined hands with the demons.
There’s not much the devil can do for you.
It’s probably still in the duke’s mansion.
Perhaps.
I slowly move towards the mansion.
The energy received from Emma is depleted in the long run, and with the side effects of the pills added, she is about to die.
I couldn’t give up on either of them though.
Yeah, well, one heal is all it takes.
There must be at least one priest in the duke’s mansion.
It only took about 10 minutes to get here, but it took close to an hour to go back.
When I arrived at the mansion, everything was already over.
As for help, Ricard’s mercenary corps occupied the mansion and even captured the duke.
Richard started talking to me as soon as he saw me.
“Nico. Come this way….”
It wasn’t until I went to the place where Ricarde took me that I could understand why the duke made that choice.
“Serious.”
The Duchess’ room.
She was sleeping in such a deep sleep that she would mistakenly think she was a corpse if it weren’t for her chest rising and falling all alone on that wide bed.
However, there was a problem.
Black skin.
A black ooze that flows out little by little from each hole.
And then, the horns that seemed to be about to pierce the forehead.
“I think I am addicted to Magi.”
“… It’s not like that.”
Richard’s prediction was wrong.
Of course, black skin and oozing ooze are the same symptoms as Magi poisoning, but it was a little different.
“Mainhwa….”
“Mainhwa? What is it?”
“… It looks like there was a demon tribe among the ancestors of the Duchess.”
That was a very long time ago.
Even in those days when humans and demons coexisted, it was extremely rare.
“That…. Is it possible?”
“Rarely, but possible.”
Ancestor regression.
Or is it safe to say that it is an atavism?
Although there are a few mines that appear later in the game, this was the first time I’ve seen them change like this.
From the outside, it looks like it’s almost over, but I can’t say for sure because it’s my first time doing something like this.
“That…. Can you cure it?”
“A crowd. Mentalization is not a disease. It’s just a phenomenon.”
The word treatment is not even right.
It could be delayed to some extent, but it wouldn’t mean much in the current situation, where progress seems to be almost over.
“Whoa…. Bring the duke.”
“Okay.”
I need to explain to the duke.
We need to make her understand that there is no way for her to return to being human.
If it’s a simple demonic poisoning, just ask the Schlageter children to absorb the demonic energy.
However, Majinhwa would suffer from side effects.
If you think about the reason why you are lying down as if you are dead, there is only one reason.
It must have been because he was trying to heal with divine power.
She must have been channeling her holy power, unaware that it was driving the Duchess to her death.
“Damn it. He didn’t die thanks to the demons….”
The demons must have pushed more demons into it.
So I guess at least my life is still attached.
However, it was not without side effects.
If the miniaturization was over, the Duchess would have become a minion of the demons.
Now I have to tell the Duke about this.
“Really, you only end up taking on roles you don’t like.”
