While I was lost in a strange emotion, Samuel continued to speak.
“……And the same goes for you, doesn’t it? There must have been more than a few who ignored you as a Half-Demon, including me. But in the end, didn’t you come here to save me?”
“Well…”
I remained silent at Samuel’s words.
I didn’t have much contact with Sytan’s students.
And it wasn’t a desire to protect something, as Samuel had said.
It was something I did because it needed to be done.
“You’re a strange one, I can’t figure you out.”
“Isn’t that my charm?”
“Crazy bastard.”
As Samuel cursed again, I pretended to wipe away tears.
“You have a sharp tongue. If you keep talking like that, I’ll get hurt.”
“You’re crazy.”
“……”
But all that came back was more cursing, so I shut my mouth.
Anyway.
“We managed to drive that monster away, but at this rate, we won’t be able to avoid death.”
“……I can see that.”
We repelled Terias.
In fact, it would be inaccurate to use the word ‘repelled’.
We succeeded in sending Terias back to the Imperial Academy and rescuing Samuel, so we achieved our initial goal.
However, we suffered too many injuries in the process.
If we didn’t get treatment soon, Samuel and I would die.
Even now, blood was draining from us at a rapid pace.
I was in this state, but Samuel’s injuries were even more severe.
His limbs had been torn off, and all his bones must have been crushed.
Even in such a state, Samuel was worried about Syhtan’s students.
“Did they manage to escape safely?”
“I think so. There were no signs of anyone other than the students and instructors around this mountain.”
“That’s a relief.”
“……”
However, I couldn’t agree with Samuel’s words.
Things had turned out this way, but wasn’t this just part of Sytan’s midterm exam?
I hadn’t been able to command Sytan’s students properly, and Samuel, the talented student I should have taken care of first, was dying.
…I was also on the verge of death.
In a nutshell, this test seemed to be a failure.
My head throbbed as I realized this fact.
Unaware of my feelings, Samuel only had a faint smile on his lips.
‘What a carefree Demon.’
As I looked up at the ceiling with a laugh.
I felt a gaze.
― …….
I turned my head and saw Gu poison staring at me.
The one who had contributed the most in this battle.
It was as if he was silently pressuring me to express my gratitude.
“Thanks to you, I’m alive.”
I thanked him and squeezed out the remaining mana to create a drop of black droplet.
It was darker than before because it had transformed into the pitch-black attribute.
― Lick.
Although the amount was small, the creature seemed satisfied with the darker water drop and cried happily.
That was when.
Thud, thud-.
Footsteps could be heard from the secret passage.
I bit my lip.
‘No way.’
Did Terias lead reinforcements from the Imperial Academy in such a short amount of time?
If so, it was the end.
If my body had been intact, it would have been a different story, but I was badly injured, and Adel’s power would be withdrawn soon.
After all, Adel had said that he would lend me his power for an hour.
Soon, the door to the secret passage opened, and the owners of the footsteps revealed themselves.
“You guys are….”
Familiar faces.
A sense of relief washed over me.
They were the ones who seemed the most reliable in this situation.
“Are you guys okay?!”
“Adel, are you okay?”
“Class President, Samuel!”
Fron and Luna.
And the students of Sytan entered the secret passage with determined expressions.
They were holding their weapons with trembling hands.
As Samuel had said, they had retreated, but they couldn’t leave us behind and came back.
Even the half-demon students that Samuel had ignored so much.
“Yes, we’re okay. But we’ll be dead soon.”
“No!”
Luna shouted as she looked at me bleeding and collapsed.
I stared at Luna, who was running towards me at a fast pace, and then turned my head towards Samuel.
“…..”
Samuel looked at the half-demon who had risked their lives for him with complicated eyes.
Perhaps Samuel knew that the half-demon who had betrayed his family had made that decision to save him.
Anyway.
“Are you alive?”
Luna’s healing ability was shining.
“Adel, you can’t die. If you die……”
Luna’s recovery ability began to stop my bleeding.
The blood stopped in an instant.
Of course, my broken bones were not healed.
‘I’ll have to go to the Demon Realm to get treated.’
There must be doctors even if there are no healers.
What’s more urgent is.
“Please heal Sir Samuel first.”
I glanced at Samuel.
Since the bleeding had already stopped, it could be said that he had overcome the crisis.
That’s why it was right to focus on healing Samuel.
However.
“There’s no need for that.”
Samuel shook his head.
I frowned and asked him who refused the treatment.
If Samuel left his wounds untreated like this, he would die.
“Are you planning to die?”
“No, that’s not it.”
Samuel answered like that and seemed lost in thought.
Soon, he opened his mouth.
“Can I borrow your body for a moment?”
“……?”
“I’ll take it as a yes.”
Samuel nodded as I stared blankly, unable to answer his unexpected question.
Soon, thorns protruded from Samuel’s body.
Crunch-.
They began to devour Samuel’s body.
Gluttony began with his remaining arms and legs, consuming his entire body.
Soon, Gluttony ate up Samuel’s entire body without leaving a single drop of blood.
“…….”
The situation unfolded in an instant.
It was then that I and Sytan’s students were all bewildered.
The remaining lump of thorns began to squirm.
“……!”
It flew towards me,
Crunch-.
And began to devour my right arm.
