Grand Duke of the Heibern House

＜Chapter 106＞

＜I will give you my name.＞

It was just one word.

A simple sentence that can’t be added to any interpretation or meaning.

However, an unknown fear wells up in my heart.

A tickling thrill travels down the spinal cord and builds up like bodily fluid throughout the body.

It is the emotion felt by everyone gathered at the training ground.

Like the brand of a red-hot punishment, it was a shivering fear that permeated all emotional defenses.

That the Great Mage puts his name on it.

Ruin’s absolute command, that shuddering declaration, was rather close to judgment.

What the cadets feel is the side of the absolute who led the superhumans of the human union.

It was the vestiges of the archmage’s transcendent self, his fierce and tenacious life.

Such a thrill was so shocking that the cadets did not even recognize the absolute commandment, the legendary state of magic.

Bhurlen showed a lot of bewildered emotion in his eyes.

“… … Are you going to kill me?”

“You were the one who talked about my life in the first place.”

He dared to speak of death to himself, who was wearing his comrades from his previous life, those noble souls, like armor.

A soul worn and weathered by countless deaths.

He insulted the life of a person who lives like a tenacious person, carrying the wishes of his colleagues on his back.

To blaspheme one’s life so lightly, so casually.

It was to trample again the despair of all those who perished in destruction.

Ruin could never tolerate anyone who carelessly talked about his death.

“you… … Are you really confident enough to handle it?”

Louin laughed.

The eyes that were more transparent than usual, and the desolate ridicule that did not contain a single emotion, were only drawing complete meaninglessness.

“You can mobilize everything you have. Even if Renciaga’s direct knight is brought to the Great Warrior, he will not accept it. It’s okay to use family power or cheat. Whether it’s inciting public opinion or mobilizing Assassins, do whatever you can.”

“… … .”

It sounds as if no matter what you do, you won’t be able to do anything about yourself.

It’s embarrassing, to the point where the accident won’t continue anymore.

Bhurlen, who was desperately controlling his emotions, glared at Ruin again.

“What do you believe in?”

Being a genius wizard was acceptable.

A guy who showed off this level of skill at the unranked level could become a great wizard later on.

However, he is a descendant of the Hirencia family.

If it wasn’t for the family’s order, or the will of the Hirencia family, she wouldn’t have even entered the academy.

For Bhullen, the academy was entertainment.

If you graduate at the top of your rank like this, at least the Royal Knights, if you steadily accumulate your majors and merits, you are guaranteed to be the leader of a medium-sized knights corps.

On the day when luck strikes him and he is given the direct family name of the Rencia family as his middle name, he will be able to enjoy a position and power comparable to that of a royal family.

All the cadets at the academy feared and found him difficult.

After all, he wasn’t a sponsored cadet of the High Rencia family.

The successor of the Nishal family who will lead the next generation of knights.

Even the sage, who is said to be the best in magic in this country, is bound to shrink in front of the power of the High Rencia family.

No matter how talented he is, how can a cadet with no rank, and not even a nobleman, have such confidence?

at that time.

“cook! What a great unranked cadet. Ah, Bhurlen-nim, how have you been?”

A short knight cadet who appeared in an exaggerated pose from behind Bhullen.

Bhullen’s brow wrinkled.

“… … Bisto?”

Even though they were not rankers, there were guys with tinnitus.

A ‘crafty clown’ who always appears with a vague smile like a clown and causes trouble.

Bistow giggled with a funny expression, then began to laugh even more bizarrely.

“Ahahahahaha! You can’t help but get involved in something fun like this, right? How can you put up with this? I can’t stand it.”

“… … Don’t be rude and get out of here.”

Bisto lightly ignored it and started looking around for Ruin.

“Awesome! A man who could humiliate the terrifying Bhullen like this! Master of Blades, is he a god?”

The reaction of the cadets gathered at the training ground was more amazing than the sudden appearance of Ruin and his party, Bisto, who was rampaging like a clown.

As soon as he appeared, the cadets quickly dispersed and left the training ground with expressions as if they were looking at filth.

It was the same even for the cadets of the twilight knights who looked at Ruin with burning eyes.

But what is more mysterious is Bhullen’s reaction.

“I was all wrong. Can’t you just go away?”

“What are you talking about, crazy?”

Creepy!

The expression of Shiron and the cadets changed completely.

The good-natured face, which had been fussing around, was distorted like a devil in an instant.

It feels like your heart is sinking.

How can a person’s temperament change so suddenly?

“I’ve been interested in something for the first time in a while, don’t interrupt me. I will not forgive you.”

Bhullen stood still for a long time, frowning, then stared at Ruin.

“The crime of insulting me and my family’s honor will be investigated next time. wait.”

Shiron stared blankly at Bhurlen’s back.

The ruler of that academy, Bhurlen, the thunderbolt knight, just goes away even after going through such humiliation?

Naturally, the eyes of Ruin and the others were forced to focus on Bisto.

“Hey! those eyes! I’ve felt it before, but I’m really tired of it! Alas, what kind of life have you endured to be able to have such pitiful eyes! I, I don’t know!”

A comedy in which one person plays two roles, Bisto’s behavior as if playing two different personalities.

Ruin stared into Bisto’s eyes, which were shining with such madness.

“You are a cunning clown.”

Only then did the cadets’ eyes change as if they remembered.

“ah… … !”

“That thing Edentia-senpai said… … ?”

Edentia had warned her drool all along that she should be more careful with this beast rather than a ranker-class strongman.

Bisto is a curse itself.

Intertwining with him causes illness, poor grades, and troubles in the family.

Enigma of the Royal Academy, where every cadet who comes to his attention suffers such a mysterious and grotesque misfortune.

An existence like a plague that overshadows all disillusionment and bullying.

The living disaster of the academy that makes you go to the temple to pray without fail on the day your eyes meet.

“Well, I’ll go to that ruins cave first.”

“Me too!”

sh*t.

“It is already over. Fools.”

The Enigma of Calamity laughs cruelly.

The faces of the cadets were colored with a dark light at the same time.

“Ahh… … .”

“What shall we do now… … .”

However, Ruin looked more directly at Bistow and gave a subtle smile.

“Even if not, I was curious.”

“wow! really? me? If you’re curious, with 100 li!”

Bistow, who had been running around like a funny clown, was shocked by Ruin’s words and his expression hardened at an astonishing speed.

“It is unusual. How could they be greedy for non-magic humans? Is the soul itself special?”

“huh?”

“At first I thought he was a half-mad ‘existence worshipper,’ but seeing it in person made it clear.”

“What sure? Ahahahahaha! you? Are you pretending to know something strange?”

Ruin smiled and removed the veil of curse that Bisto had secretly opened.

“This, this! What, what!”

Visto steps back in a panic.

The power that radiated from Ruin was not magic or fighting spirit.

Unknown unknown strength, inexplicable mighty power.

He was the first human to be able to lift the veil without any resistance.

“At this level of authority, it is still on the verge of being eaten by the soul.”

“Hey, soul-eating? What is it?”

“What were you promised? strength? eternal life? Summon if that is not the case?”

“omg… … !”

Bisto is stepping backwards.

“He’s a foolish guy who got drunk on the little power he gave out like a joke and couldn’t even figure out the situation he was in. Are you still mistaking you for its contractor?”

“What, what are you? How can you do that!”

at that time.

The surrounding landscape is distorted like a wave.

“uh!”

“Ruin!”

Shiron urgently calls Ruin.

“It’s not a curse, it’s magic! Ruin-sama’s magical power!”

“phew… … I again.”

Visual disturbance magic that creates an optical illusion in a certain range of space so that it cannot be seen from the outside.

In addition to that, it also overlays an intermediate level silence spell, Silent Barrier.

Ruin, who had been shaking off his fusion magic, stared at Beast again.

＜Come out.＞

Ruin’s absolute command was strangling Bisto’s soul like a chain.

Surprised, Bisto raised the power of the curse and fiercely resisted.

“Ah, ah! Aagh!”

Nothing was of any use in the face of the unseen, extreme fear, that high-altitude power.

＜If you don’t come out, I will break your spirit.＞

“Ho, Honju?”

Ruin’s expression lacking in emotion, even his humanity had faded, and Ruin’s eyes were no longer directed at Bistow.

What Ruin is looking at is Bisto’s soul, and beyond.

＜This is the final warning. You know very well what will happen if you break the honju, right?＞

That moment.

“Quaaagh!”

Bistow collapses with a terrifying scream while clutching his head.

It is the feeling of extreme fear at the first sensation that something is about to come out through one’s head.

ssssss-

Something vaporized like a dense purple mist shoots out of Bistow’s head.

A terribly negative existence that could not even be called a form was slowly revealing itself.

Bistow stared at something vomited out of him with a devastated face.

The purple being, rippling with goosebumps and exuding terrible energy, was astonished like a human being.

＜Human, what the hell are you?＞

Ruin still looked at the other person’s temperament with insensitive eyes, but didn’t say anything.

As soon as the search was finished, Ruin’s mouth began to twist in a strange curve.

“It’s the energy of enthusiasm exuded by those who roam the mad zone. Are you a member of Eosetaka?”

＜What… … ?＞

How do humans know Eosetaka-sama?

What’s more, it was even more surprising that there was nothing wrong with talking about the true name of that distant fear.

food.

“It’s to the point where those who feed on life force look normal. Fooling a human and daring to eat souls? How long have you been playing this crafty game?”

＜Who the hell are you!＞

“It’s Ruin.”

＜Ruin?＞

Tsutsutsutsutsutsu-

Another terrible shape begins to form in the air.

Unlike the existence of the previous negative type, it was a great demon god of the demon realm that could manifest its distinct form and inherent power intact in the human world.

＜All, you!＞

＜Cluck! It’s a rotten worm. Where is Eosetaka hiding?＞

rotten worm?

An indeterminate existence, ‘Amkato’, came to mind as the only being that called itself that way.

＜Hey, Gyrobel?＞

The Absolute One who led the Flame Zone to destruction.

The conquering lord of the Hemophilia region who forced the demon god Eosetaka to hide for over ten thousand years.

＜Long time no see, rotten bug.＞

Fear trembled before a greater fear.
