Became a Third-Rate Villain in the Hero Academy - Became a Third-Rate Villain in the Hero Academy chapter 279

279 – Robot Rock (2)

I looked around my body.

It was the same as usual. Same as Theo in front of me.

Anyway, what kind of bullsh*t is this?

‘I am the devil?’

I’ve just been fighting a contract with the Great Devil, and I’m filled with a lot of hatred for the devil.

While I was thinking about that, Theo opened his mouth again.

“Is this the first time we’ve met each other like this?”

He was smiling softly.

Is it homophobia? When I saw that, I felt really dirty.

My inner thoughts came out of my mouth.

“What are you doing, you piece of sh*t? “Turn away the thrush.”

I was surprised too. This is the first time I’ve used such foul language since possessing Theo’s body.

However, even though I said something unclassy, [Twisted Dignity of Nobility] Did not punish me.

Theo frowned for a moment and said.

“There is no need to be so hostile. “I just came to say thank you.”

“The thank-you note is nonsense. “I’m not even a Nike, but I’m going through a lot of trouble by possessing the body of you idiot.”

“That is something that is unfair to me too. I was born with blood that could be counted on one hand in the entire continent, but in reality, I was a dull person who could not even become a normal person. It took me a year to learn martial arts, which low-ranking bastards learn in just a month. “Even thinking about it again makes me sad…”

Theo had a bitter expression.

Of course, it wasn’t my friend.

I think it’s a huge waste of time and mental energy to spend criticizing oneself for being ugly. Of course, I have no intention of comforting Theo at all.

“I don’t think you’re an idiot, but you only say what you want to say rather than what others want to hear. By the way, why did you call me the devil?”

“······Is there no awareness? It’s amazing. You don’t remember what happened in the basement? “It’s a shame.”

Theo rested his chin and fell into thought.

I frowned and shouted.

“You bastard, don’t talk about things that only you know. By basement, you mean the deepest part of Castle Balderk?”

“Yes. You probably know this because you must have seen your father’s memo in the head office. “I was trapped there after being sealed by a unique secret technique.”

“Yes.”

“Didn’t you speak to me from that cold and dreary place? It’s such a pity that I don’t remember that time… It was really fun to talk to you over those long eons. Only you saw my true worth. “That was the only light in a life stained with criticism and pain…”

Theo sighed, as if he was regretful.

I don’t know what this nonsense is. I was just playing ‘Kairenzena Chronicles’ as usual when I was possessed by that guy’s body.

But I’m curious about what’s going on.

“Keep talking. “What was in the basement and what did we talk about?”

“Wouldn’t it just hurt my mouth to talk to someone who doesn’t remember anything?”

“Hey, you idiot. One knows, two don’t. You don’t know, right? “If I listen to it, my memories will come back.”

“······Hmm, that could be possible.”

Theo started talking.

After listening to his story, I summarized the main points.

“So, to sum up what you said. First of all, are you saying that in the basement, there remain the vengeful spirits of numerous great devils that the ancestors of the Balderk family have sealed away for generations?”

“Yes.”

“The core of what the devil said to you was, ‘If you make a contract with me, I will make you the greatest hero on the continent after you get out of here.’”

“That’s right. I didn’t know that was how you took over my body, but in the end, you are going beyond being a warrior and walking the path of a hero in my body. And that in a short period of less than half a year. “Do you remember anything now?”

Theo looked at me with bright eyes.

‘Hmm…’

Theo’s words don’t seem like lies. In the first place, that guy isn’t smart enough to come up with this well-structured plot.

Above all, the word ‘contract’ remained in my mind. In this work, the devils make all kinds of excuses, but they do not use the expression ‘contract’ carelessly.

This is why devils must keep the matters related to the ‘contract’.

‘I’m sure something happened while he was in the basement.’

It was too exquisite to be considered a coincidence.

I thought about going to the basement myself. If I could find out why I possessed Theo’s body, wouldn’t I be able to find a way to go back?

‘No. ‘This is too much of a gamble.’

Judging from what Theo says, the demonic spirit wandering in the basement is an unknown entity.

I don’t know what will happen to me if I face him. You need to be well prepared before going.

I spoke after gathering my thoughts.

“No. “I don’t remember anything at all.”

“······.”

“However, if I go to the basement in person, it might be different. “I’ll go when I get the chance.”

“······I understand. It’s not my situation to argue. To be honest, as I watch you, a lot of the anger in my heart has gone away. “I will continue to support you in the future, at least in my heart.”

“If you’re going to cheer, be sure. If you have any helpful information, please provide more.”

“······Hmm. “I think you generally know everything.”

Theo thought deeply and continued.

“Oh, I don’t think you know this.”

“What is it?”

“The identity of the being sealed within the sacred object you are using. I heard something from the demons in the basement. ······Hmm, looking at your expression, it looks like you don’t know.”

“Say it without hesitation.”

“Even if I don’t, I’ll say it quickly because I don’t have time. That entity is trying to return its body to you. The identity of that existence is…”

The car Theo was talking about.

Kugugugugu─

Kugugugugugugu ──

Space began to collapse. Everywhere in the white, empty world began to be torn apart.

I shouted at Theo.

“f*ck you, don’t stop and talk! Urgent!”

“······.”

It was mixed with the sound of space collapsing, so I couldn’t hear it well.

Theo gaped again.

I couldn’t hear clearly, but I clearly saw the shape of his mouth.

‘Ashes, light, righteousness, emptiness, lord?’

That was the last conversation I had with Theo.

* * *

“Keu, keuheuuk!”

As soon as I came to my senses again, what greeted me was intense pain.

It feels like the muscles in my entire body have been torn into small pieces.

I thought I had gotten used to the pain while using [Overrun] And [Overload], But I was wrong.

I swallowed my screams and turned my head slightly.

Check your surroundings. Maitri’s body can be seen in the center of the devastated event venue.

Maitri was even more demonized than before I lost consciousness, and she was dead, cleanly cut in half.

‘······It’s incredible. ‘You must have done it.’

I held the [Demon Sword] With trembling hands to listen to Ney’s story. I also have to ask what the ‘grey princess’ Theo was talking about was.

─You did it, Nay.

─······.

There was no answer from Ney. I tried talking to him several more times, but it was the same.

‘I guess I’ll have to wait until later. Maitri has also been dealt with, so it goes to [Ford Company].’

I opened my [Subspace bag] And took out a bottle of Imitation Alixer.

But there is no strength in my grip at all. I couldn’t open the lid.

At that time, my body flashed for an instant.

‘Oh.’

Strength returned to my grip. To be precise, it didn’t hurt even if I applied force.

I heard someone behind me and checked, there was Claire. She was reaching out to me.

“You’re awake, Theo.”

“Yes, fortunately. By the way, what is the divine spell you just used on me? “The effect is really good.”

“······This is a spell that is close to a prescription for extreme medicine. It temporarily paralyzes most of the body’s senses. “Even if a limb is cut off, you don’t feel pain.”

“How long does it last?”

“Approximately 3 hours…”

In other words, I was currently under partial anesthesia.

It is quite a dangerous situation. Pain is a precious defense mechanism that humans have. You probably won’t feel any pain even if your arm is cut off now.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’

Rather, it went well. Currently, I’m running out of energy, so I have to use [Overrun] Whenever possible, but I can probably use it longer.

I drank the imitation alixer. Because my senses were paralyzed, I could not feel that my physical strength had recovered.

I thought it would be nice to have plenty, so I opened another bottle and drank it.

I briefly glanced at Isabella, who was lying on the platform in the distance.

Then he spoke to Claire.

“Please take care of Isabella senior.”

“······I’m thinking of joining the main team. I want to stop it as much as possible. No matter how effective the medicine is, Theo’s physical condition is not very good right now. “When reinforcements from the church arrive, why not go with them?”

That cannot be done.

We must see the end quickly. If we join the church’s reinforcements, won’t they take away all the valuable research materials and research materials in [Ford Company]?

I have to go quickly and confiscate everything.

But I had to convince Claire. I need to erase as much as possible the suspicion that I have another agenda.

I quickly came up with a message and spit it out.

“I have a long-standing belief. “I only revealed it to senior Isabella.”

Claire looked up at me, as if waiting for my next words.

“I have no compromise with the devil and everything related to the devil. Even if this life ends right away.”

“······Ah, ah, ah.”

“Then, please ask Isabella senior.”

I ran toward [Ford Company], Leaving behind Claire who was looking up at me blankly.
