Shoo-

The blue sky is completely covered by dark clouds,

An afternoon where heavy rain pours down in a world that has become even darker.

When the theory lectures at the academy were in full swing, there was a student who stayed in his own space, without showing his face in any of the lecture rooms.

Lower floor of the Academy main building rooftop. Chairman’s office.

This was originally the place where the chairman was supposed to work, but her bloodline took over as the chairman, who rarely visited the academy due to frequent business trips.

Now, on the reception sofa in that spacious space,

There was a large man lying down with his legs crossed.

“Sigh, damn it.”

Kelg Durakal.

The man with short, dull blond hair and dark skin let out an annoyed sigh.

He had bandages wrapped all over his body, and instead of the academy uniform, he was wearing leather pants and a dark, tight-fitting t-shirt.

It clearly shows that he did not come to the academy as a student.

He looked displeased with the situation in which he was currently hiding out here.

“Fucking bitch… ”

Normally, I would be rolling around with a girl in the main hideout behind the academy, but that place is currently completely destroyed by the battle with Perzena and buried under the collapsed mountain.

The events of that night flashed through Kelg’s mind again.

Perzena, who gained incredible power in an instant by causing her magical circuits to go wild, was a formidable opponent that even she, who had absorbed the magical power of dozens of people including Tirisia, could not subdue in one breath.

In the end, he was able to defeat all the nobles who followed him, using them as shields, but it was actually closer to self-destruction due to the backlash from tyranny.

Before his body collapsed, Perzena cut down all the nobles and, with blood pouring out from all over his body, he finally rushed towards him.

Kelg, too, could not remain completely unharmed when dealing with her.

Having suffered injuries big and small all over his body, he ordered his other followers to take the nobles and Perzena to the hospital, and while covering up the whole story of the incident, he went into quiet hiding until his body recovered.

The problems caused by Perzena’s rampage were more severe than the physical injuries sustained, with the loss of limbs.

They were noble students from the Academy who had been useful in their own way, but now their condition was so serious that they could not be mobilized for battle.

About 30% of students are outcasts who cannot be of any help in a coup due to physical damage or mental trauma.

But the bigger problem lay in the remaining 70%.

The nobles who had their magical circuits completely destroyed in the battle with Perzena, and were now unable to survive as magicians.

It doesn’t really matter how they ruined their lives.

The problem was that with the destruction of the magic circuit, the contract of predation they had made also disappeared.

Thanks to this, the total amount of magical power that Kelg possessed was considerably reduced compared to its peak.

Of course, since Tyrissia’s magic alone had a huge impact, it wasn’t fatal if the nobles were missing a few, but the fact that he had to waste time trying to find his place was irritating Kelg.

Now the task of taking on the nation was at hand.

“Tsk, we won’t be fully prepared for the revolution at this rate… ”

He clicked his tongue, lying on the sofa with his arms crossed over the back of his head.

Now that he was weaker than at his peak, the only thing on his mind was a boy he had ignored until now.

“That fucking kid… how does he grow up so fast.”

Which posed no threat to me,

Erto, a commoner boy who was nothing more than a fly.

The boy who was included in Kelg’s target simply because he was Tirissia’s boyfriend was clearly a low-level wizard with no special talent and nothing more.

Kelg didn’t recognize the boy as an enemy at all, and didn’t even care about him in the first place.

However, she was merely an object to satisfy his evil taste in the process of carrying out a long groundwork to take away the great power of Tirissia Bruard with the curse of charm.

By stealing Tirisia’s heart, Kelg caused the boy to despair by committing unnecessary evil deeds.

Just to kill time. Bullying done for fun.

The boy’s expression, which had been stained with betrayal when Tirisia’s true colors were revealed, was one of true satisfaction.

And that should have been the end of his relationship with the fly.

A petty human being who can never be his rival.

I just had a little fun with it and threw it away. I never expected anything more than that.

But the boy who had fallen into despair returned to himself as something completely different.

A person who had no power at all had swallowed up countless powers and grown to be on par with himself, so powerful that even Tirisia had given up on revenge.

And that too in an overwhelmingly short period of time.

This fact gave Kelg a vague sense of unease, and now that his strength had somewhat waned, he was quietly working behind the scenes, looking for more wizards to prey on.

Another reason he came to the academy instead of creating a deeper hiding place was to make contact with other noble students and secure their place after the revolution, thereby making them believe in him.

“Damn, if it was going to be like this, I shouldn’t have done such unnecessary provocations.”

It was a truly unpleasant experience for Kelg to feel so close to his family’s goal and then have to take a step back again.

But this time he had to admit that it was his own mistake.

“I never thought you’d do something this stupid.”

Kelg actually had no reason to reveal to Erto what Perzena had done.

Because she had already done her part and was falling apart.

In order to take away Tyrissia’s power, you need to make a contract with the predator, and the prerequisite for that is the Curse of Enchantment.

At the time, Kelg’s power was absolutely incapable of satisfying the conditions for Tyrisia’s fascination, and since there was a suitable mercenary named Perzena, he was able to seduce her and make things happen.

Since we went our separate ways after reaching the conclusions we both wanted, it didn’t matter what happened after that.

Even so, the reason Kelg revealed Perzena’s secret in front of Erto is,

Likewise, it was an act purely for fun.

When she was filled with hope that she would finally be able to be with the man she loved so much,

To send you into the abyss at your happiest moment.

Because Kelg Durakal’s hobby was to admire the eyes turning into despair as they faced irreversible destruction.

So, until the fruit was fully ripe, Kelg left Perzena alone and deliberately made her approach what she wanted.

And just before I could reach that happiness, he gave me hell by flicking his tongue in a very pleasant way.

I thought it was really funny at the time.

A love story where priests who trusted and relied on each other fall into betrayal and rift.

What a hideous and ridiculous sight that is.

However, the results that have just occurred are proving that that decision was a bad one.

With the loss of limbs and the decrease in the number of contracts for predation, the magical power he possessed has fallen to a level where he cannot definitively succeed in the revolution.

Kelg had learned a lesson from this incident, as the destruction he had caused for fun had come back to haunt him like a boomerang.

This means that if you manipulate human emotions too arbitrarily, you may end up in unexpected trouble.

“Whatever, it’s just a matter of time anyway… ”

Kelg closed his eyes on the sofa and smiled, baring his fangs.

The contract for predation has been shortened, so all that’s left is to find another sacrifice.

There was no hitch in the plan, except that the timing of the revolution was slightly pushed back.

Even in a slightly weakened state, there is no one in this country who can stop him.

The plan was already coming into its own and all he needed was a little patience.

There will never be another unpredictable variable like Perzena again.

[Kelg Durakal―]

At that moment,

The space shook and a familiar voice echoed in Kelg’s head.

“What? A command?”

A cold command was given to Kelg, who slowly rose from the sofa.

[Come here.]

It was something Kelg had never expected,

It was another seed of karma he had sown.

[I came to kill you.]

Tirissia Brewery.

The victim who caused the worst of everything, who had driven Perjena into deeper despair than anyone else.

I thought she had just realized the difference in power and backed down,

Following Perjena, he returned to kill himself.

“… Haa, you fucking whore.”

Despite the ominous murderous intent conveyed through the words, Kelg only sighed with a frown as if he was annoyed.

It was already obvious that she was inferior to him.

Because he originally possessed the same power as himself, and on top of that, he had the power of other magicians piled up in dozens of layers.

The girl who rushed at him even though she knew she was no match for him felt like just another fly to Kelg.

“I was already in a bad mood, so this is good.”

At this time, the Academy students would witness the situation, but it didn’t matter to him since he was the victim of the attack and could claim self-defense.

Kelg cracked his neck and made a noise as he left the chairman’s office and threw open the hallway window.

And then I put my feet lightly on the windowsill,

Phew!

-thud!

He leaped at an invisible speed and landed in front of Tirisia on the hill in front of the main building in one breath.

“Hey, rag.”

Rising from the circular crack carved into the floor, he glared at the girl in front of him with his dark eyes.

“What are you doing now, you rascal? Do you want to die?”

“Kelg… Durakal… ”

The girl in the negligee and barefoot confirmed that the man she desired had appeared before her eyes and quietly raised her sword into the air.

As if to say that you won’t use it now.

Kelg bent down, his hands in his pockets, and gave her a wry smile.

Magic power that appears to have no change whatsoever on the outside.

No, rather, judging by the much more shabby atmosphere than before, it seemed like an easy victory was expected.

“I asked you. What did you come here for? Judging from your behavior, it seems like you came here to give me a taste. It seems like you still can’t forget the taste of my dick, right? Yeah, spread your legs and show off. If you want, I’ll eat as much as you want… ”

Kelg, who made his first greeting with a deliberately obscene provocation in order to establish a basis for self-defense,

The next moment,

―

“Uh.”

He suddenly found a fist approaching him.

In a moment when no sound or anything else can follow―

Boom!

Along with the shock, Kelg’s short memory was erased.

“Keuk… !”

When he came to, he realized that he had fallen through the ground and was knocking it over.

Bam!

Blood gushed from both nostrils, and the broken nasal bone sent excruciating pain to the brain.

“K… Oaaaahhhh!”

A blow—

A blow—

As he lay on the floor, holding his face with both hands and crying, a girl in pajamas approached him with footsteps ringing.

She left the sword she had brought floating in the air, clenching only her fists and speaking coldly to Kelg.

“Stop joking and get up.”

Kelg’s dark eyes looked up at her, filled with bewilderment.

In the emerald eyes looking down at him, there was a murderous intent even darker than the one he had felt from Perjena a while ago.

The voice that froze the space fell upon him once again.

“Because it hasn’t even started yet.”
