“Lie down, Vivian. I’ll handle it.”

Eugene ordered Vivian, who had been thrown aside, not to interfere.

Vivian possesses a magic stone of protection and a magic stone of telepathy,

She may have another self-defense magic stone similar to those.

That is, if Vivian thinks Eugene is in a big crisis situation, she will try to use it.

Eugene took preemptive measures because Ricard’s sword could harm her if she did.

“Heh heh heh! This isn’t the time to worry about that woman, you bastard. You’re about to die.”

Ricardo sneered as if he was dumbfounded by the sight.

However, his sneering lips twitched slightly.

His scratched mental state was clearly revealed.

He is desperately seeking survival by showing all sorts of dirty and petty behaviors,

But Eugene is maintaining his cool without wavering even in a huge crisis situation.

Ricardo provoked Eugene Schneider again in an attempt to escape reality from such a clear contrast.

“So, what are you going to do? Are you going to use mana footwork to pick up the greatsword lying over there? I’m curious. If so, how much blood will spurt from my thighs? Can you maintain your attitude even in that state? Heh heh heh…!”

Sreureureung,,,!

Cheoeoeoeok…!

Soon, Ricardo took a charging stance.

He, who was extremely angry, spoiled how he would attack the injured Eugene Schneider.

He was the epitome of confidence itself,

Ricardo himself believed he was at an advantage and that the opponent could do nothing to the extent that he could show off such bravado.

In the end, Eugene Schneider will have to move unconditionally to pick up the greatsword first.

If that happens, his thighs, which have suffered considerable bleeding, will worsen further.

In other words, Ricardo was planning to crush Eugene as if he were mocking him, by making him move according to the spoiler he had given.

“I’m curious too. How much blood will burst out.”

Not only is the situation unfavorable in many ways, but Ricardo is smelling it and provoking him fiercely.

However, Eugene Schneider responded to Ricardo’s sneer with a rather calm demeanor.

“I wonder if you can still show that kind of face even when your limbs are torn off, you demon mongrel!!”

ㅡPaaaaaaaat!

Ricardo, who didn’t like the look of that at all, immediately grabbed the sword surrounded by a blue aura and rushed out.

“Huh??”

However, the expression of Ricardo, who was like a fierce hyena, was soon filled with bewildered question marks.

‘What is this bastard? Why is he moving over there?”

Wasn’t Ricardo the one who predicted that Eugene would move toward his greatsword?

However, Eugene’s movement situation completely deviated from his expectations.

Eugene moved to the opposite side of where the greatsword was.

It was even a normal backpedaling step, not mana footwork.

“It’s ridiculous! Do you think anything will change by doing such a futile twist?”

Teoteoteok!

However, Ricardo’s expression soon regained its murderous intent.

It’s just that his expectations were off, but that doesn’t mean Eugene can actively do anything.

He has moved even further away from the greatsword, and he hasn’t even used mana footwork, so he hasn’t been able to widen the distance significantly.

Knowing this well, Ricardo stepped on the brakes and tried to chase after Eugene’s unexpected movement in the opposite direction.

“This makes it easier!!! What can you do when I attack like this!!!”

ㅡPaaaaaat!!

ㅡChuaaaaaaak!!

As expected, Eugene Schneider failed to widen the distance from Ricardo in one go.

Moreover, since Eugene still doesn’t have a sword in his hand, active defense or counterattack is impossible.

In fact, Ricardo was convinced from the beginning that Eugene would unconditionally grab the sword and set the direction because such a structure was too inevitable.

Ricardo immediately cast straight-line mana footwork again and entered into a relentless attack.

“Thank you for showing me your back so well.”

Smirk…!

Eugene Schneider was now in a situation where Ricardo’s knife would soon catch up with his backstep and deeply penetrate his body.

Even so, Eugene raised the corners of his lips with unwavering eyes.

“You crazy!”

Chwaaaaaak!

At this point, Ricardo thought that Eugene Schneider’s pupils would be shaking.

He drew a roadmap to first cut off his arms and legs while sneering at the sight, and then slowly go for vital strikes.

However, Eugene deviated from Ricardo’s expectations again and provoked him back,

Ricardo, who was scratched without fail, stretched out his sword, which was full of blue aura, towards Eugene’s abdomen.

“!!!??????”

It was Ricardo’s murderous eyes.

But those eyes suddenly shook in an instant.

“ㅡKeuheoeoeoeok!!!”

Not only that, but a desperate scream erupted from his mouth.

ㅡPuuuuuuuuuk!!!

This is because Eugene Schneider’s huge greatsword suddenly pierced through his body.

“Our loving younger sister is saving this older brother’s life!”

And Eugene’s hand was stretched out towards his greatsword that had pierced Ricardo’s body.

He summoned his sword, which was far away, through the weapon inventory,

In this way, Eugene’s greatsword returned to his hand as if sucked in, piercing Ricardo’s body.

Eugene shattered the board that Ricardo had set up by using the weapon inventory skill that he had been practicing diligently.

“You should have thrown away your personal obsession as you threw away your pride as a Sophist of the Order of the Sword.”

Eugene’s plan started from the moment Ricardo’s hidden weapon hit his thigh.

The fact that Ricardo deliberately hit the hidden weapon on his thigh meant that he would try to compete through a one-on-one match.

If that weren’t the case, he would have thrown the hidden weapon directly at a more fatal area.

In that state, if he moved away to the opposite side of the weapon, it was obvious that Ricardo would rush in without a sense of crisis.

Eugene bet on it, and the bet hit the jackpot accurately.

“Oh shit…”

However, gambling is inevitably accompanied by risks,

Puuuk…!!!

Ricardo’s sword tip, which had been stretched out as if falling down even while his body was being pierced, slightly stabbed and entered Eugene’s abdomen.

“Damn it…”

Cheocheocheocheocheok!

In this way, Eugene Schneider, who suffered damage within the risk range and stopped while stepping on the brakes sharply,

ㅡGudangtangtang!

Ricardo, whose body had been pierced through, fell forward and died.

“Eugene! Eugene!!!”

Hudadadak!

In anyone’s eyes, the result of the match was clearly out.

Therefore, Vivian released the posture she had been lying down in according to Eugene’s orders and ran towards him, who had been stabbed by a sword.

“No, don’t come!!!!”

However, Eugene once again ordered Vivian not to approach.

‘I was wondering, but as expected, it’s the Ro… As the bleeding is severe and his life is threatened, the demonic energy immediately began to explode even more.’

The moment Ricardo’s hidden weapon hit his thigh, what came to Eugene’s mind was not only the calculation that he could lead him to a one-on-one match.

He thought that perhaps the demonic energy might go out of control again.

The moment he saw the blood spurting out and flowing out due to the hidden weapon,

Eugene Schneider recognized the unique surge felt when the demonic energy in his body exploded.

He thought that he might be able to overcome the crisis of demonic energy explosion thanks to the plan that minimized movement as much as possible,

But Ricardo’s sword tip, which poked in at the end, pulled the trigger for the demonic energy explosion.

As a result, the demonic energy in Eugene’s body exploded.

Beonㅡㅡㅡㅡtteok!

At that moment, the red light of demonic energy flashed in both of Eugene Schneider’s eyes.

‘What is this? What is this energy? I feel a very foreign energy from Eugene!’

When the demonic energy was activated at a low level, Vivian was unable to react to it.

This is because she is a magician at the runner level, as she directly mentioned through telepathy.

However, when the demonic energy explosion occurred, Vivian felt the explosive energy that suddenly surged from Eugene.

ㅡHoeaek!!

Eugene Schneider, who had slightly bent his back due to the rapid demonic energy explosion, suddenly raised his head and looked at Vivian.

[Ravage her… that woman cannot be trusted… ravage her and take her life to silence her…]

The demonic energy ordered Eugene to ravage Vivian and then kill her.

‘Eugene’s eyes! Demon eyes? Then was the Sophist’s words that Eugene is a demon’s half-blood true??’

Vivian was shocked to see Eugene’s face as he raised his head.

Vivian had been doing foreign trade for many years, so she had seen some demon men.

That’s why she feels it even more clearly.

Eugene’s eyes, which are flashing with red light, were clearly eyes created by demonic energy.

[Can you trust that woman? That woman approached you even though she clearly knows you have other women? She is a woman who will betray you at any time and hand you over to the Empire… so kill her… ravage her like a beast and take her life, Eugene Schneider…]

Eugene Schneider stared at Vivian, who had wide eyes, with flashing red eyes.

Even at that moment, the voice created by demonic energy was whispering like a snake in Eugene’s head.

‘I really can’t trust Vivian.’

However, wasn’t Eugene Schneider the one who had already experienced the demonic energy’s prank intensely?

That’s why, unlike with Jeanne, Eugene calmly faced the sound of demonic energy in his heart.

Eugene now knows for sure.

The voice of demonic energy is the voice of Eugene’s own subconscious.

Therefore, Eugene has had some twists and turns and built relationships with Vivian in a short amount of time,

He realized that he distrusted her so much.

“Do you know the meaning of this look, Vivian?”

Afterwards, Eugene spoke to Vivian in a low voice.

“Ah, I know, Eugene…”

At Eugene’s question, Vivian made a very nervous face and slowly nodded in response.

However, looking at her eyes, the background of the sudden tension seemed to be due to embarrassment rather than fear and terror towards Eugene.

“Demonic energy… that light is caused by demonic energy…”

And the reason why that embarrassment was created was expressed as it was.

If fear was the foundation, she would have avoided answering,

But Vivian confessed without hesitation that she had noticed Eugene’s demon half-blood situation.

It is an act that she would never do if she focused on preserving her life.

‘She must be trying to give me trust. She must know that if she tries to pretend not to know clumsily, I will have no choice but to suspect her even more.’

She paid taxes voluntarily without using her head.

It can be said that it is Vivian’s appearance that focused on the relationship of trust with Eugene rather than her own safety.

“Please run away, Eugene. I will never tell anyone else what I saw just now.”

Seueueuk…!

Soon, Vivian told Eugene to leave the scene and at the same time took out her dagger from inside her coat.

This is to harm herself and claim to others that she did not properly see Eugene’s appearance due to the injury.

“It’s okay. There’s no need for that. If you have that kind of mindset, there’s another solution.”

Jeobeok, jeobeok, jeobeok,

However, Eugene approached Vivian with a grim feeling and ordered her to stop.

“Take off your clothes.”

If he eats Vivian like crazy, the demonic energy will subside.

Therefore, Eugene demanded Vivian to undress.
