How To Survive at the Demon Academy

A being that jumped out of a puddle.

Its presence was familiar yet awkward.

“This… .”

“certainly… .”

Hercules and I looked sideways.

“Wow!”

There was Jetty, looking at the monster with an innocent expression.

I turned my gaze back to the front.

At that place.

“Slime?”

“I guess that’s right.”

There was a slime similar to Jetty.

“Wow, just like me.”

Jetty was bouncing around, revealing her wonder.

I tilted my head listening to Jetty’s words.

‘Is it similar?’

At first glance, the boss in front of you is a slime.

A translucent body with a jelly-like consistency.

This is a commonly known characteristic of slime.

The problem was that apart from that, it was so different from Jetty.

First was the size.

‘It’s big.’

At most, it is a Jetty the size of a human head.

Even if it wasn’t a jetty, the slime I knew was never bigger than a person, no matter how big it was.

However, the slime in front of me boasted a huge body that was about the size of a small building.

Here’s what it looks like.

Jetty has a very cute appearance.

The big eyes and round mouth created synergy with the small body, and it was a look that anyone would like.

Of course, it also makes it look so easy.

But the slime in front of me was different.

‘Slimes can be this ugly.’

It had eyes and a mouth like Jetty.

However, the mouth with sharp teeth, the torn yellow eyes reminiscent of a lizard, and the green body gave off an unpleasant feeling that naturally made people frown.

Finally, it was strength.

‘It doesn’t look formidable.’

Since it appeared as a boss, it would have been natural, but the momentum flowing from the slime’s body was not normal.

Judging from the green haze corroding the surroundings, it seemed to have strong acidity, and the wave of magical power was as strong as its gigantic size.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen such a huge slime.”

“Neither do I.”

“See Jetty for the first time.”

To say that he has never experienced Herculus or Jetty, beings from the demon world, at least means that he is not an ordinary monster.

‘No matter how you think about it, slime bosses are absurd.’

A weak monster that usually appears against beginners in games or novels.

Even when I was a hunter in the past, slimes were miscellaneous mobs that could only be found in low-level dungeons.

But that guy is the boss of this dungeon.

That means it’s a monster that’s placed on a higher rank than the hell lions and twin hydras that we encountered earlier.

the problem is.

‘It means I don’t know anything about him.’

Except for slimes, there is no information about boss monsters.

Of course, I don’t know all the information about all the monsters. There must be monsters that I have never seen or experienced.

However, it was impossible not to know if it was at least the boss level of the dungeon, and stronger than the messenger of hell.

‘Then the possibility would be one of two.’

One is that it is a virtual monster created by combining various information.

However, the possibility is not high.

It was originally a dungeon based on the environment of the earth, but there was no reason to set up virtual monsters.

the other one.

‘It could be a monster that appeared after I came here.’

It is unknown how these demonic beings obtain Earth’s information.

And I don’t even know how the time flow in this demon world and other dimensions flows.

It’s only been about three weeks since I’ve been here, but on Earth, it may have been three months, or it may have been three years.

If you think of it as a monster that appeared in the meantime, it roughly fits.

‘It’s frustrating because I can’t find out the information.’

Just in case, I checked the information of the monsters I had encountered so far through Sebastian, but I only heard that I did not know.

In the first place, it was impossible to check the information of the monster even with the Hunter Launcher, so it was natural.

“So what do you plan to do?”

Hercules, who was examining the giant slime, asked in a low voice.

“What… I will have to hunt.”

“As expected.”

Unlike the monsters I’ve encountered so far, the slime kept its distance and only sprayed green energy around it, not rushing at it first.

If it’s outside and you can avoid it, it’s a good idea to avoid it.

However, since this is a dungeon and you can only get out if you catch that guy, you have to fight in the end.

‘In the first place, it’s unlikely that Professor Cedric will come forward and help by avoiding battle.’

In the end, the current situation has to be resolved by the three of us.

‘No, two people.’

He slowly turned his head to look at Jetty.

It seems that he does not feel any sense of danger when he sees a being similar to himself and bounces his body excitedly.

If that’s a talent, you can call it a talent.

“Are you going to do it alone this time?”

“No, I would appreciate your help.”

“i get it.”

There was no reason to be irrational against a monster you didn’t know well.

It will definitely be strong, but it won’t be at a level that students can never win, so I think it’s possible to attack enough with Herculus’ support.

“Jetti will cheer you on!”

“Good judgment.”

In a melee situation, it was better for Jetty to stay away, since you never know what might happen.

“Then let’s begin.”

We slowly approached the giant slime.

* * *

A slime that just kept its place.

However, as soon as it came within a certain range, it started to react.

Key eh eh!

“It’s ugly and noisy. I will make him shut up soon.”

A gigantic body slime bounces off its massive body and rushes at it.

‘Are you the type to compete with power? Well, with that size, he probably isn’t the speed type.’

The overwhelming presence, which was incomparable to Jetty’s torso headbutt, was clearly intimidating.

But.

‘If it’s not fast, it’s just a big target.’

I quickly pulled away and the guy crashed into the building wall.

Kwak Kwa Kwak!

The building colliding with the slime is shattered and a cloud of dust rises.

He was buried under the rubble of a building, and his movement was momentarily restricted.

“Bloody Lane.”

Hercules’ magic poured down on him.

Shuka Kaka.

A blade of magical power red like blood pierces the slime’s gigantic body.

Pupper puck.

Although there were dozens of holes in an instant.

“Is it really that hard?”

The slime’s body lightly absorbed the magic.

No, I think it would be more appropriate to say that I just spilled it.

It was because the magic that penetrated the body jumped out on the other side and caused an explosion.

“An attack with maximum destructive power would be better than a sharp attack.”

“Let me refer to it.”

I threw myself at the same time giving advice to Herculus.

The target is slime eyes.

Most of its huge body is viscous, but only its eyes and mouth are not.

That means it’s hard to let go of the blow.

“You can clearly see the weakness, but there must be no reason to let go.”

The fist, full of demonic energy, hit the slime’s eyes with red energy.

aaang!

Keye!

The slime let out a roar of anger.

“It’s harder than you think.”

I was going to pierce the eyes at once, but he instantly closed his eyes, forming a viscous barrier over his eyes and blocking my attack.

‘Am I the guy who thinks differently than he looks?’

It may be by instinct or it may be thought.

One thing’s for sure: he’s not an idiot who just rushes.

Keye!

The green haze that shimmered around the slime oscillates.

Soon, the green energy engulfed the surroundings and attacked at high speed.

As I watched the incoming attack, I was momentarily troubled.

‘Should I avoid it?’

That green aura has a strong acidity.

If you look at the extent to which it corrodes the surroundings, an average person would melt just by brushing against it.

Of course, this is the case with ordinary people.

I have a fraudulent defense skill called the demonic barrier.

If the basic durability ability is combined with the demonic barrier, it will be able to withstand quite a few attacks.

Once you have made your decision, the next action is simple.

I ran to the front with the magic barrier on.

Chii Ik-

The strong acidic attack started a struggle to melt my body.

“You are too weak.”

It couldn’t penetrate the magic barrier and just passed by.

I arrived in front of him in an instant.

“Try to endure this too.”

I thrust my fist full of demonic energy into the guy’s mouth.

Bagak-

At the same time as the sound of something breaking.

Ayeek!

The slime’s screams spread around.

And pieces of teeth fall from his mouth.

“It’s worse than before.”

The mouth, filled with dozens of sharp teeth, had a hole in the middle, giving it a funny look.

Quarreung!

And the ensuing magic of Hercules.

“It will hurt a little this time.”

A huge black hammer struck the slime’s body.

Whoops!

Slime flying far away like a ball hit by a baseball bat.

‘It’s not as difficult as I thought.’

Even considering the help of Herculus, he was weak for a boss.

Compared to the messengers of hell, it was a bit stronger, but it didn’t seem like a big difference.

But that was my mistake.

Aye!

The slime that stood up suddenly let out a scream filled with anger, and at the same time, green orbs appeared around it.

‘What is that?’

Upon closer inspection, it was not a marble.

It was a bunch of small slimes.

I don’t know if it’s an alter ego or a baby, but dozens of small slimes took control of the surroundings, revealing their presence.

Even if it’s small, it’s the size of a decent person’s ship.

Keye!

Simultaneously with the roar of the slime body, dozens of slimes started charging head-on.

“It’s annoying.”

Perong!

I quickly dealt with them one at a time, but there were so many of them that I couldn’t help wasting time.

Meanwhile, the slime was repairing the damage.

‘Ah, the lack of wide-area skills is a problem at times like this.’

During his Hunter days, he used various skills, and among them, there were wide-area skills that annihilated enemies at once.

But all I have now is the Diablic Force and the Magi Barrier.

I thought I should learn another technique that can be effective against a large number of people.

‘First of all, it’s first to finish that bastard. Otherwise, there will be no end.’

Looking back, Herculus was also suffering from the physical attacks of the clones.

“Kuh, what are these guys?”

It was holding up with a magic shield and attacking with magic, but it didn’t seem like there was time to try the same strong attack as before.

‘It’s become a nuisance.’

Even if you deal with all these alter egos, there is no guarantee that he will not summon another alter ego.

After sweeping it away in one blow, I had to knock it down without giving the main body a chance to come to its senses.

‘I can’t use magic either.’

Just in case, I was shaking my head when I heard Sebastian’s voice.

＜It’s not magic, but you can use similar skills.＞

‘What do you mean?’

＜There is Diablic Requiem, a one-hit kill technique that concentrates and shoots demonic energy based on the Diablic Force.＞

Did you have such a skill?

＜It seems that you have not been able to use it until now because of the minimum required stats.＞

‘Does that mean it’s possible now?’

＜It’s close, but it seems to work.＞

In an instant, unknown information comes to mind.

As if it had been sealed and then unlocked, information about Diablic Requiem passed by.

After a while.

“It’s a skill I really like.”

The corner of my mouth went up on its own at the unexpected harvest.

It is better to try it once than think about it a hundred times.

“Then I’ll have to get rid of the annoying ones first.”

I immediately raised the demonic energy, and soon a red aura like a haze rose from all over my body.

And soon, a flash of red formed on my hand.

“Dablic Requiem.”

I lightly stretched out my fist towards the clones that filled the front.

However, the phenomenon caused by that light punch was by no means light.

Wow!

A huge red beam rips through space, and the alter egos swept away by the light disappear without leaving a trace.

An overwhelming force that destroys everything in front of it.

“It’s okay.”

It was more powerful than expected.

“I am a little tired.”

However, it seemed that the amount of magic consumed was not normal.

The moment I thought that it might be a little difficult to deal with the body at this rate.

“Well?”

I laughed at something wriggling in the distance.

There was a huge slime rolling around with more than half of its body blown off.
