Became an Academy Self-Inflicted Blackmailer - Became an Academy Self-Inflicted Blackmailer chapter 184

184 – Blood and Kin (3)

The forest turned over. It wasn’t just a metaphor.

Old trees were uprooted and fell down helplessly, and the dark sky suddenly turned dark red.

As if there were limits to the area, the sky a little further away was still a night sky, but… Could that really be a comfort?

At least at this moment, the darkness that dominated the area made those who looked up at the sky feel a deep sense of fear.

Eve had a hunch. Those were the Three Kings.

The ruler of the nine heavens, the lord of demons.

What appeared beyond the sky was a human shape. The upper body of a young boy.

It was like a hazy fog, but ‘it’ was definitely looking down.

In response to the call of my contractor, to indirectly project his power onto the continent.

The devil in reverse stretched out his exposed upper body arm and pointed to the ground.

Errr!!

“…… ?! “Bwak!”

Reacting is meaningless. The moment I recognized that some formless energy was at work, there was a tremendous force pressing down on my body.

It literally felt like the hands of a giant were trying to crush the small human body.

Eve and Lucius each instinctively released blood and mana, but it was best to hold on without being crushed.

If that wasn’t even there, it would most likely have ended up looking like a crushed fish pod.

Eve even recovered the blood energy that formed the rapier to protect his body, and at the same time raised her head.

At this time when they were incapacitated, it was thought that Jerome would not stay still.

“…… What.”

That idea was wrong. At this moment, Jerome’s body’s movements were restricted to those of Eve and Lucius.

It was quite bizarre to see his entire body fixed in the air as if it had been pierced by spikes.

A whitish inverted cross rose behind him, and Eve judged that the inverted cross was the source of support for the devil in the inverted sky.

In other words, destroying it was the only way to turn the situation around.

‘…… ‘My body isn’t doing what I want it to do.’

The inverted cross had to be destroyed. Otherwise, you will be attacked by the devil.

Her judgment itself was not wrong.

In fact, the devil of the reverse sky was planning to utilize this situation as effectively as possible by manifesting a part of himself on the continent by borrowing the power of an object.

Although I came at the request of a contractor, this was also a one-off visit.

Limitations on the time one can stay, limitations on the ability to reflect.

Now, of course, the main body of Yeokcheon has not escaped from Nine Heaven.

In fact, it was not a very generous position, and even that meant that it was maintained by almost relying on the inverted cross and Jerome’s musical instruments.

So, what is the most important thing to prioritize in such a situation?

The devil of the reverse sky was still floating in the sky, scanning the situation on the ground in detail with his emotionless yet vague eyes.

First of all, I could see the bloodsucking veins of a vampire.

They are probably the imperial family of the empire. In fact, he is also the contractor’s blood relative.

The value of being used as a sacrifice was not only sufficient, but overflowing.

If their souls were added to the numerous sacrifices collected so far, it would not be impossible to truly open a passage between the continent and the Nine Heavens.

Even so, the evil of Yurin had succeeded in stealing the results of her research and making them his own.

The cooperative relationship with the Dragon Emperor was broken, but that too was a preordained ending.

Yeokcheon decided not to worry about the existence of the dragon emperor right away.

The end of our understanding with that disparate man was to annihilate the strong powers of the continent, including the dragons.

Nevertheless, the Dragon Emperor Carsilion hoped to maintain the lifespan of the continent, and the Demon of the Heavenly Sky was determined to destroy the continent he cherished.

Ultimately, as the direction of view was different… …. In the first place, it may have been a cooperative relationship that could not have lasted very long.

Yeokcheon’s bright red eyes turned to his contractor at that time.

Although it was not noticeable, his body was trembling slightly.

The condition is probably getting worse.

It was a risk to bring the Three Kings of the Nine Heavens to the continent and maintain them, and since he was a man of that caliber, he was able to withstand it to this extent.

However, any further than this would be dangerous.

The devil of Yeokcheon stretched out his hand. What he was targeting was the two royal families.

One was a girl and the other was a young man.

Although they were still quite young by human standards, their abilities and energy were infinitely powerful.

He was a highly desired talent. I also wanted to make it mine, but…

Yeokcheon soon suppressed his impulses and gave greater energy to the pressure that was weighing them down.

Quung… ….

Gravity was strengthened by targeting the entire earth.

A distant roar shook the ground loudly.

There was not the slightest change in the expression of the demon in reverse.

He just thought of something else.

A large army of high-ranking devils has already been prepared in his territory.

In fact, he is directly performing the role of advance guard for the invasion of the continent.

Once you clear the passage, that’s the end. The continent will not last long and will come to an end.

It was a devil from the heavens who had lived with only that in mind for eons.

Even though he had very few emotions, he couldn’t help but feel something that could be called a little bit of elation.

A faint emotion appeared on the boy’s face, and it soon turned into motivation.

The devil of Yeokcheon briefly raised his hand and struck the ground once again.

Kwaang!!!

The girl screamed and vomited blood, and the young man’s complexion turned pale.

For a human, he had endured quite a long time, but those struggles were now his last.

It weighs down the space, as if rolling up a piece of white paper and crumpling it.

The only thing that mattered now was that the souls of the two royal families should not be lost the moment their lives ended.

And that wasn’t that difficult for the Three Kings-.

Yeokcheon’s hand soon naturally headed towards the ground.

The devil moves to take the souls of Eve and Lucius.

Even though he was aware of that eerie presence, there was nothing he could do.

There was blood flowing out from the pressure. Eve tried to use the power of blood, but…

‘Keu, huh…’ … !’

Rather than using her external blood, blood was not flowing through her entire body right now.

It wasn’t some kind of trick.

I wasn’t affected by any magic or anything, and I didn’t feel any interference from the instrument.

So this was just a simple ‘weight’.

Pressure pressing down on the body.

In other words, gravity.

The devil in reverse was simply using physical force without any magic to make Eve’s body immobile.

It was a natural and natural process for blood circulation in the body to be disrupted.

And that obvious principle was the biggest factor that made Eve powerless today.

The moment a vampire cannot even handle the blood in their body, they become more helpless than anyone else.

That’s because I don’t have the energy to use it. It was natural.

Eve realized that her vision was becoming blurry.

I feel like I’m about to lose consciousness. I know it shouldn’t be like that. I had to hold on somehow.

But, by what means.

‘No, it doesn’t work…’ ….’

It was not difficult to guess that if I closed my eyes now, I might not be able to open them again.

Isn’t it truly a harbinger of death?

But the truth was that there was no way to resist.

Eve let out a wheezing breath.

A pounding, pounding feeling in the head. It felt like someone was threatening me to close my eyes right now.

The analogy was funny, but I didn’t even have the energy to twitch the corner of my mouth…….

“… ….”

Eve raised her head for the last time.

It was truly the last, last effort.

I look at Lucius. Because he was her family.

In some ways, he is a blunt and clumsy person.

I’ve never received anything like an expression of affection……. Actually, if Lucius had done that, he would have made a fuss and said he was hurt somewhere.

Anyway.

‘Brother.’

I came all the way here to save him, but maybe I was downplaying the current situation too much. Suddenly a thought occurred to me.

I was aware that I was chasing a warlock, but I did not expect the presence of demons and demons.

Even if you initially made the move knowing the risks, the regret did not fade away.

If you had acted a little more carefully, could you have achieved a better result?

It was an unknown problem now, and it wasn’t that important…….

I just had that thought.

Eve looked at Lucius, who was motionless, feeling a little overwhelmed, and then looked beyond him for a moment.

There was a black curtain right there.

The location where Jerome imprisoned Dante and Duke Blake.

And the curtain shows no signs of breaking yet.

Will he be safe? It was something I couldn’t help but worry about.

It seemed unlikely that Dante would lose to Duke Blake.

But, is it really possible to escape from the influence of the Three Kings just because of the space inside the black curtain? … ?

From noble mtl dot com

Uncertain issue. No, the possibility itself is probably biased towards the negative side.

…… Nevertheless, Eve hoped for Dante’s safety.

I wish he could escape.

Part of me was hoping for salvation, but that was too much of a desire.

Appears like a prince on a white horse from a fairy tale. That shouldn’t happen.

I hoped that Dante would not leave the space inside the black curtain, at least for now.

Why? Perhaps the devil in the reverse sky might not have noticed the crack in space.

Honestly, I know that is also a slim possibility.

But Eve decided to think that way.

Only then will she be able to let go of her heart and close her eyes.

Dismissal…… !

It was that very moment.

There was a thunderstorm.

Beyond my vision, which became blurred due to my breathing becoming difficult, I saw a scene where the black curtain was starting to crack.

Eve’s expression became even more despairing. The thought was, of course, now.

Soon, the black curtain collapses into pieces.

A figure holding a thunderbolt appeared.

[…] … ?]

Yeokcheon’s bright red gaze turned towards that place.

Eyes full of doubt.

I didn’t expect it, but he really didn’t seem to notice the disconnected space on the ground.

Eve let out a helpless sigh inwardly.

Because I knew that that fact was meaningless.

The devil of the reverse sky stretched out his hand.

Eve closed her eyes tightly without realizing it, with true sincerity…….

Inyoung holding a thunderbolt. In other words, Dante.

“…… Carsilion… ….”

I was just muttering the name of a being that did not fit the time and situation.

His blue eyes once again took on Bahamut’s blazing jet black.

“That son of a b*tch is real.”

Bright! Dante’s eyes stared into space with a sad glow.

The moment when the eyes of Yeokcheon recognize the existence of a person with special abilities.

Qurrr!

A flawless white lightning passed through the body of ‘Yeokcheon’ that was floating above the dark red sky, leaving a simple trace.
