-Whoooosh!!!
Through the eyes of the burning Corpse Patchwork, the one observing this situation.
The 26th Great Demon, Buné.
He was unable to contain his excitement.
He was annoyed that some insignificant, light-green-haired creature was bothering him.
But a moment ago, a delicious-looking, pure-white girl had appeared.
-Hehehehe!!! Hehe! Did you think she was a fucking angel, or a saintess?
The magic Yeriel had cast was Phoenix.
An application and advanced-level technique among fire elemental magic.
It was a well-known fact that holy magic was the most effective against demons, but the fact that she used elemental magic unfortunately proved that she was neither a saintess nor an angel.
-Lick.
For Buné, it was even better.
As a demon, those with holy power were more difficult to handle.
-Then, what kind of noble bloodline do you have…?! Hehe!
From a far, humans were quite entertaining.
They were mere creations, yet they divided themselves by status, called themselves gods, and worshipped and served each other.
It was so ridiculous how they proclaimed themselves emperors and played at being noble kings.
And when those loud-mouthed creatures were stripped naked and violated, the essence of humanity emerged. Despair.
And the betrayal felt by the followers who had to watch as the one they worshipped was defiled and could only struggle to survive.
-Hehehe! That’s the only reason you human bastards exist, you know?
This was one of Buné’s favorite scenes of pleasure.
In that sense, the girl in front of him was perfect.
A girl like a fluttering white cloth in the wind.
There were other ‘virgins’ like her, full of untainted purity, if you looked for them,
But this one was different. More rare.
For some reason, within her body… the seed of a fallen angel was growing.
It stimulated Buné’s five senses, no, his six senses, begging him to sprout it quickly, to make her his kin.
It aroused him.
-Hmm… if you want it that much, I should personally caress you…! Hehe!
He wanted to approach her and violate her as soon as possible.
-What kind of screams will you make?? Hehe!
Now he even understood Tobiel’s impulsive actions.
There was plenty of time anyway.
By now, the academy must be preoccupied with the feast of corpses that had poured out from the Gate of the Underworld.
It was a shame that he couldn’t properly train the corpse legion without Andras,
But the ghouls’ relentless, aggressive nature was obvious.
It would be enough to divert their attention.
And this forest area had a demonic barrier, so no one could enter or exit except demons.
In other words, he had plenty of time to slowly savor and violate this girl.
-Heee! Heeeeee!!
Therefore, Buné had to make a decision.
Should he order the patchwork to gruesomely tear her flesh and devour her corpse…
Or should he sacrifice the patchwork and teleport directly to the spot to embrace her himself…
-Hehehe! I need to preserve her form as much as possible… but there aren’t many spectators right now…
As Buné was contemplating which method would be more violating, he made his decision.
-First, kill that worm of a boy.
Eliminating the eyesore came first.
-Creak. Creak.
The patchwork, whose flames still hadn’t subsided, carried out the order immediately.
-Swish..!
Edwin was clearly outside the patchwork’s attack range,
But when the creature extended and swung its chain,
-Swish!
The iron flail stretched out, threatening to reach even Yeriel.
-Swish!
“!!”
-Boom!
“Ugh!”
The one who blocked this terrifying attack was Edwin.
It was a physically impossible scene.
Edwin’s sword was a standard training sword issued by the academy.
Of course, it was a bit sharper than a practice sword and had some alloys mixed in, but that was the extent of the difference.
In that instant, Edwin’s activated Sword of Enforcement had managed to deflect this obvious outcome once.
Yeriel didn’t miss this opportunity either.
-Whoooosh!
The phoenix, now larger than before,
Let out a clear cry and directly struck the patchwork.
-Boom!!!
This time, it was a direct hit, and the patchwork’s movements were sealed,
-Ho-oh?
-Dash!
With Buné’s slightly surprised words as the end, Edwin charged.
-Swish… Slash!
And a crescent-shaped silver flash struck the patchwork’s abdomen.
A clean and sharp strike, honed by countless hours of sweat and effort.
[Holy – Strike of Conviction]
In fact, Edwin, who couldn’t yet wield aura, knew.
Even if these combined attacks continued, it would be difficult to defeat that creature.
In other words, their best bet was to hold out until the barrier was broken and the academy’s forces came to their rescue.
His body was already covered in wounds, both large and small.
He was no longer in optimal condition for battle, but he wouldn’t give up.
The speed emanating from that giant body of the patchwork.
‘Just a little…!’
If he could just match that speed, he might be able to find an opening.
Conversely, Buné was disgusted by the boy’s unwavering eyes of conviction.
-Hmm, the struggles of an inferior being are just boring…
Controlling that patchwork himself was indeed a hassle.
Moreover, his opponent was just a boy.
-Kill him yourself. As quickly as possible.
-Groooowl!!
Buné gave the patchwork free will to kill Edwin and leaned back, resting his chin on his hand.
As long as the pure-white girl didn’t suddenly jump in and sacrifice herself in some disgusting melodramatic scene, there shouldn’t be any problems.
-Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
As the patchwork charged towards Edwin,
And Edwin strained to imbue his trembling hands with holy power…
-Whoooooosh.
This time, a blue wind swept over the patchwork.
-Stab!!
-?
At the successive interruptions, Buné’s face momentarily contorted.
◇◇◇◆◇◇◇
-Groooowl!!!!!

The heavy impact I hadn’t felt in a while.
My wind magic had pierced the patchwork’s eye.
The creature writhed in pain.
‘I’m not too late.’
First, I had left the two in the underground waterway to Aria.
She also seemed to sense the gravity of the situation, as she didn’t ask me any further questions and immediately took them to the Hall of Restoration.
I immediately reported the barrier in Lintz Forest to the academy staff.
They were probably putting on a show to break the barrier by now.
I had also temporarily closed the Gate of the Underworld,
So the situation was progressing faster than in the original story.
‘So far, it’s according to plan.’
And I had secretly entered the barrier using Demonification.
The next scenario was to help Yeriel and Edwin kill the Corpse Patchwork and provoke Buné to manifest here.
That was the only way to catch him…
“Lev…!”
“Lev… how did you…”
Ignoring Edwin and Yeriel’s words,
As I approached the Corpse Patchwork, a status window popped up in front of me.
-Ding.
In fact, there was no need to preview this creature’s patterns.
To put it simply, this creature was,
‘I don’t have skills, but I’m damn strong.’
In other words, it didn’t have many active skills,
But it was the type to rely solely on brute physical strength.
‘Hmm.’
The problem was that it was difficult for me to use Demonification.
My Demonification was based on Andras,
So if Buné caught my scent, there was a risk of things going wrong.
In other words, it was better to help Yeriel and Edwin hold it off, as in the original story.
That way, these two would acquire traits and grow, and I could also maximize my rewards by delivering the final blow.
Another point to consider was that, according to the novel,
After Yeriel and Edwin barely managed to hold off the patchwork, he personally teleported,
And violated the original characters with overwhelming dark magic.
Realistically, that made sense in terms of balance.
He was a Great Demon, and this was extreme difficulty, so he would be incomparably strong.
So there was no way that first and second-year cadets who had exhausted their strength fighting the patchwork could stand a chance.
And when the academy’s guardians and war heroes arrived, Buné used teleportation again to calmly ‘escape’.
However, things were different now that I had intervened.
‘Teleportation dark magic uses a lot of mana. If I use that…’
As I was organizing my thoughts, Yeriel came in front of me and started to scold me.
“Lev, it’s dangerous here…!”
“Yeah.”
“Why did you come here…!”
Yeriel stood in front of me as if to protect me.
It wasn’t the right time to say this, but… it was a scene that wasn’t in the novel, so it was really cute…
“Hey.”
“?”
I handed Edwin a real sword.
“Listen carefully to what I say from now on.”
“…”
Instead of answering, he nodded,
-Swish!
And he drew the sword I gave him from its sheath as a response.
Anyway…
After Andras, this was a rare opportunity,
A once-in-a-lifetime chance to hunt a Great Demon.
I would take this opportunity to surely eradicate him.
