The Narrow-Eyed Villain of the Demon Academy

Chapter 191: The Narrow-Eyed Villain of the Demon Academy

Humans were entering the castle.The meaning of that was simple.

‘……Have they noticed?’

Sssk—.

As one of the soldiers had said, I looked down at the citizens rushing into the castle with cold eyes.

They were fleeing as if being chased, following the instructions of the human soldiers.

In other words,

It meant that they had noticed the Demons were near the castle.

That meant there was someone around this mountain sending a signal to the human side.

And Crete was not one to be unaware of this fact.

“

But for Crete to go out now would be tantamount to admitting that he was beneath the Sword Saint.

So one of the other Demons here had to go out.

But no one wanted to fight that female knight.

“Are the Demons scared?”

“They charged in with such bravado, but they’re all tucking their tails and running away!”

The human soldiers taunted as no one emerged from the Demon ranks.

“……Is there no one?”

Just as Crete’s face contorted in anger,

“I will go.”

I raised my hand and spoke to Crete.

“Oh?”

Crete’s eyes sparkled with interest.

Then he opened his mouth and said,

“Very well. I grant you permission.”

“……Thank you.”

Thump, thump—.

I bowed my head once to Crete and then walked towards the female knight who had come out for the duel.

A female knight with dazzling platinum blonde hair and a magnificent sword, like something out of a fairy tale.

But the aura she exuded was far from ordinary.

She had reached the level of Swordmaster.

Could I really win?

But if I stayed put, the morale of the Demon soldiers would definitely plummet, so I had no choice but to step forward.

Step—.

As I stood before the female knight,

“A half-demon. A traitorous breed.”

She glared at me with contempt.

The veins on my forehead throbbed.

“……You have a sharp tongue.”

“I merely spoke the truth. The stench of your kind makes it hard to breathe.”

“Then do you douse yourself in perfume before coming to the battlefield? The smell of your makeup is overpowering.”

“You…!”

The female knight raised her sword at my provocation.

Well, the provocation seemed to have worked…….

Hmm.

On second thought, it might have been better not to provoke her.

……She was a Swordmaster.

She might be as strong as, or even stronger than, Terias, whom I had encountered during the midterm exams.

“……You’ll go easy on me, right?”

I asked with an awkward smile, but

Clang—.

She immediately raised her sword and swung it at me.

“……!”

I blocked the blow, crossing my red dagger and the Fang of Darkness.

As I gauged the power behind her sword, cold sweat trickled down my back.

This,

This wasn’t going to be easy…….
