Chapter 250. The Spy’s Profound Mystery (1)

Blood vessels bulged on Elaine’s forehead as it turned bright red.

What on earth is Master thinking?

“…A blind date with the Demon Emperor.”

His hands trembled violently.

The Demon Emperor, that sworn enemy of all—he wants to set me up with him?

This was an insult beyond a mere joke.

‘I… I only need Master now.’

When he turned his gaze, there was always someone by his side.

Knowing that, he brings the Demon Emperor? Does it not matter who the marriage partner is? Does it not matter who I go to?

Anger boiled up and in his fury, he muttered:

“…Then I’d rather do it with Rei instead.”

At that moment, Ruin’s expression rarely hardened coldly.

“Not that kid.”

Elaine’s heart sank with a thud.

Seeing him get so serious, it means he does care after all.

Then why… the Demon Emperor?

His mind became tangled, making him even more confused and even more angry.

‘At this point, what exactly does he think of me?’

But there was still something he had to do.

He was angry, but this and Master’s life were separate matters. First, he had to break Master’s leash, those terrible chains binding him to the Demon Race.

‘Then I’ll kill the Demon Emperor and break Master’s Solitude Curse.’

“Excuse me for a moment.”

Elaine brought his hand to Ruin’s neck. He tried to release his Luck Power to finish unlocking the chains.

But then—

Clatter…!

The revealed chains loosened for a moment, then tightened again as if gripping firmly. Despite what must have been tremendous pain, Ruin only slightly squinted one eye.

“…It won’t come off!”

Elaine’s eyes wavered.

To save Master, it should naturally come off, but why?

Only then did he realize. His Luck Power was being devoured. From inside the chains, as if an endless hunger had opened its mouth, it was sucking in his power.

“…This is.”

His heart sank with a thud.

Five Evils. It was those bastards who had bound Master. Among them—

“…Hunger.”

“Hunger?”

“Yes. It seems to be that way. Of all things, the most unreasonable demon…”

“Hmm, then that side seems manageable somehow.”

“What?”

“In that sense, how about the Demon Emperor? It doesn’t have to be marriage, you could be friends too.”

“Master!”

Master seemed to have something in mind, but Elaine’s eyes blazed with fire.

If that rational Master is saying such things, could there be a mind control function in the leash?

‘Right. No doubt about it.’

Then should he suppress it with even stronger mind control?

The crazed Hero activated his Luck Power.

“Master will come to like me…!”

Smack!

The Hero immediately got hit.

And this news flowed and flowed—

“What? A blind date between the Demon Emperor and the Hero?”

Sasha, who had successfully made contact, burst into hollow laughter, then soon grabbed her stomach and laughed loudly.

“Puhahahaha! Fire Butterfly, you bastard, are you really crazy? Hahahaha!”

Ruin silently looked at her.

…Is this something to laugh about like that? He had seriously thought about it for world peace.

“Doesn’t the Chief also want to end the war?”

Then Sasha wiped her eyes wet with laughter and sighed.

“That’s true. But even so, marrying the Demon Emperor and the Hero? Did you get hit by a brick somewhere? Hahahaha!”

Ruin pouted.

“…I guess it was an absurd fantasy after all.”

Sasha’s laughter gradually subsided. Soon her eyes sank coldly.

“According to what you said, the Demon Emperor went through countless regressions to have you. The Hero even killed you to start the regression. So how could those two be paired up?”

…That’s true.

“And it’s the same with the Hero’s side.”

Sasha snickered, then struck directly to the point.

“Fire Butterfly, you got found out by the Hero about being a master, didn’t you?”

“!”

Ruin’s breath stopped.

“Don’t underestimate our intelligence unit, Ruin. We’re not the type to not check when your leash has been released.”

Sasha’s smile twisted coldly.

“And would the Hero who learned you’re a master just leave you alone? He’ll definitely try to make you his ally.”

Ruin pressed his lips tightly shut.

…That was an undeniable fact.

“In that sense, orders have come down from the Five Evils.”

At those words, Ruin’s eyes flashed sharply. Sasha continued speaking while tapping the desk with her finger.

“Since the Hero has come to follow you, they said to use that as an opportunity. Your mission is simple. Eliminate the Hero.”

Ruin’s eyebrows twitched, and Sasha’s lips curled up in a bloody smile.

“And one more thing. They want you to use Haven’s students to create Wish Stones. They say if you raise the students and kill them all at once disguised as a class, Wish Stones will emerge.”

In an instant, Ruin’s mind went blank.

These bastards…?

Could it be that even the Demon Hunting Practicum incident using the former head professor was an experiment for that purpose?

As that thought struck him, Shadow and Misfortune simultaneously stirred within him. Black mist spread without a trace, and in an instant the lamps in the room went out one by one and the air became murky.

Sasha just smiled with her arms crossed.

“Getting angry won’t change anything. If you turn your back on the Five Evils, you’ll immediately be hunted like a beast. So accept it, Fire Butterfly.”

Ruin smiled bitterly.

“Very well. It’s not a difficult mission. As you said, the Hero has already come over to this side.”

Sasha’s eyes glinted sharply.

“Wise as expected.”

Ruin nodded, but inwardly he was making different calculations.

Use the students as material for Wish Stones? Like I’d do that.

That’s why he called her.

“Section Chief.”

“What?”

“If Pride’s leadership were the Seventh Evil instead of the Five Evils, and I were one of them, would you believe it?”

Sasha’s eyes widened.

“…Did you really lose a screw in your head after getting that severance pay?”

“Try answering.”

“Fine, whatever, then I’ll become your underling.”

Ruin was inwardly surprised.

Sasha is an executive-level demon.

“You, Section Chief?”

“Not just me, but our entire department.”

That’s good.

Ruin’s golden eyes flashed like lightning.

“Haha. While we’re at it, let’s get the section chiefs from other departments to join too.”

“Hahahaha, this bastard, are you really crazy? Well, fine.”

“That’s a verbal contract.”

“Sure.”

Ruin smiled.

Your expression will be quite worth seeing when you learn the truth later, Superior?

* * *

Ruin, entering class, thought.

‘First, I’ll use Hunger to break free from the leash.’

But the problem is making contact with ‘Hunger’.

The Five Evils are usually hidden somewhere unknown. He had tried to use the Princess to call out Hunger, but the Princess said she didn’t know Hunger’s location either.

So Ruin planned.

“Today’s somewhat dangerous practical training is being conducted with a mage from the Magic Tower.”

At those words, the Demon Hunting classroom stirred.

How dangerous must it be to call in even a head mage from the Magic Tower?

“The subject is methods of torturing demons.”

Demon torture?!

Such cruel and inhumane magic, at the Academy?

“It’s called torture, but it’s magic to protect your bodies.”

‘That way, maybe I won’t get killed by the Five Evils?’

The professors were convinced.

This Head Professor’s—no, the Mage King’s—command style and educational philosophy was thoroughly practical.

But was there such a demon available?

At that look, Ruin gestured toward the bastard prince tied up in one corner. It was Noah Winberg, the Black Moon prince who had been transferred to Silver Moon.

Low murmurs flowed among the students.

“Is it true that a demon possessed the prince?”

“Are they trying to remove that demon through class?”

“Then they’re really going to put the bastard on the throne?”

The professors and students stirred for different reasons.

However, ignoring them, Ruin looked at the Magic Tower’s head mage.

“The magic formula will be mine. You execute it.”

As soon as the words fell, the Magic Tower’s head mage was terrified.

No, last time he told him to try using Solitude and dared to make the Mage King’s body terminal, and now what was he trying to make him do again?

Completely frozen, he shook his head.

“If it’s that, the Mage King should directly—”

“If I do it, this child will die, won’t he?”

Ruin cut off his words with menacing eyes.

‘More than that, I can’t use magic, you bastard.’

At those words, the head mage hesitated for a moment. Then he nodded as if he finally understood something.

Certainly, if the Mage King directly used torture magic, the power would be no joke.

“That’s right. The prince mustn’t die.”

Soon he began drawing the torture magic circle that Ruin had given him. The magic circle glowed blue and circled around Noah.

Noah, who had been dragged around by Ruin for poop money searches and gotten involved in all sorts of things, sniffled that the former head professor was better, but the students held their breath.

“Torment!”

With that cry, Ruin’s eyes gleamed.

Instantly copying the Magic Tower head mage’s magic, Ruin clenched his fist. He watched the scene before his eyes without blinking.

“Come out. Demon.”

When Ruin called out lowly, screaming sounds came from within Noah’s body.

[Kyaaak! Insolent bastard, to summon me like this!]

“You’re Hunger’s subordinate. Right?”

[What?! How dare you say I’m someone’s subordinate! As you know, this body is Darkan of the Sixth Evil…!]

However, Ruin laughed coldly.

“Don’t try to deceive me. Such an existence never existed in the records to begin with.”

[?!]

Darkan trembled.

This bastard was using the fact that their existence had been erased in this way?!

[This dog… Aaaaak-!]

He wasn’t the Magic Tower’s head mage for nothing—the torture magic exploded. Moreover, Darkan was in a state where even his power was sealed. The resonance mixed with pain and anger filled the classroom.

The students and professors swallowed their saliva.

“To think Hunger’s subordinate was hiding in Haven.”

“Did the professor discover that?”

Darkan felt wronged.

…I’m not a subordinate!

But Ruin wouldn’t miss this opportunity.

“Speak. Your superior, Hunger’s location.”

Darkan tried to unleash his power, but Ruin spread the aura of misfortune very thinly. That aura continuously constricted Darkan.

[Aaaaak! I can’t use my power!]

“If you don’t want to be annihilated, shut up and tell me your superior’s location.”

[I told you I’m not a subordinate… Uwaaaak!]

At that moment, Ginseng Superior in the flower pot said something.

「You’re planning to find Hunger like this and use the ‘wish ticket’ to remove the leash?」

‘Well, that’s right.’

Then Ginseng Superior worried.

「Even with a wish ticket, I don’t think he’ll remove the leash.」

Then Ruin chuckled.

‘Fathers are all daughter-fools without exception.’

「What?」

‘And one of the spy’s secret techniques is the honey trap.’

…What kind of secret technique is that!
