Demon Emperor's Rise: Becoming The Greatest Villain For My Daughter

BANG

Hueg severed the Dire Bear's body in half, killing it completely, and he wasn't just done with this. He dashed around the field like a breeze of wind which killed anything that got touched by it.

Ana, who was also killing the beasts, watched the silver-haired boy dance wildly amidst the beasts with unpredictable movements, killing everything that was before him. She could see a big grin on Hueg's calm-looking face, indicating he was enjoying himself.

Ana didn't just focus on Hueg, she was also looking at her surroundings, carefully assessing her competitors.

Ana saw Lily—who was beside her—raising her staff and creating a giant wall completely made of water. It was five meters in radius and four meters tall. " [ Small River's Protection ] "

Ana became surprised when she saw her attacks easily passing through the wall, but the beasts that luckily came in front of them got blocked by that wall.

"Good Job, Lily." Ana praised Lily for making such a useful barrier. Lily just smiled at her while strongly holding her staff up, trying to keep the barrier up to the maximum output.

Seeing her struggle, Ana used another spell that she felt was needed now. She pointed her right palm at the beasts as a white light started glowing on her palm. " [ Star Spike Burst ] "

A white ball made of her mana shot out of her palm and galloped amidst the beasts. The moment it came to the center, the ball exploded, creating multiple smaller versions of itself that spread all around the place.

The moment these small white balls came into contact with beasts, white spikes burst out of them, piercing anything. A plethora of white urchins immediately covered the field, grabbing everyone's attention.

A couple of seconds later, these white urchins turned into specks of light, vanishing into the air, leaving behind the dead bodies of the beasts.

"This…This…" Marley stuttered after witnessing Ana's show of strength, stumbling backwards and almost falling to the ground on his butts. He had never witnessed someone of his peers doing such feats.

Lily was also surprised to see Ana's strength. She had never met with Ana in person because of personal reasons, but she had heard from her father about Ana who was very hardworking and dedicated to learning magic and growing stronger. Her father would always praise Ana every time he came back from Arash's place.

So, Lily had always been curious about Ana's strength, and now witnessing it in person made her believe her father.

"Who is she? I have never heard of someone like her?"

"Me neither, but that doesn't matter, should we go ask for her help?"

"Hmph, no need to. We can solve this ourselves."

Many marveled at Ana's strength, and some wanted to ask her to help them, but they were children of nobles, they were born with arrogance.

How could they lower their heads to some stranger?

However, these didn't matter to Ana, as she only cared about her and Lily's wellbeing. She just dropped her hand down, and Hueg's irritated voice came.

"Oi! Were you secretly trying to kill me?" Hueg came walking toward her while rubbing his right cheek. Ana noticed a trace of blood where Hueg was rubbing, but after Hueg removed his hands, there was no injury that could indicate that blood.

Truthfully, it was healed, and that blood was from the scar that Hueg got because of Ana's last attack as he was in the middle of that beast horde.

"Sorry." Ana nonchalantly answered Hueg.

"You're definitely not sorry!" Hueg pointed his finger and yelled with justice.

Ana just gave a side glare at him and didn't say anything. Instead, she shifted her attention to other sides, where she could see various types of skills and abilities being utilized in many people's hands.

However, contrary to Ana's expectations, not everyone was as good as Hueg. But that didn't make her lower her expectations of not finding proper opponents in the academy, as she could feel strong mana signatures fluctuating far away.

Marley, who wanted to say something at that moment, started feeling heavy goosebumps all over his body. He turned his head back, just to see a giant Dire Bear smashing out of their carriage.

Bang

Behind the Dire Bear were a bunch of young kids lying on the ground with injuries all over their bodies, and the Dire Bear wasn't the only beast coming in his direction; there were many others!

Marley got so mentally shocked that he forgot to defend himself by attacking the Dire Bear and instead grabbed Lily, who had her guard lowered. He shoved her before him, trying to make her a meat shield.

At that moment, Lily, Hueg, and Ana reacted to the situation. Lily's eyes were horrified to see the shadow of a huge bear paw coming toward her while showing its shiny, glistening claws.

Hueg and Ana subconsciously moved. Hueg used [ Wind Thrusts ] to its fullest, arriving just in the nick of time to see the Dire Bear paw before his face. Meanwhile, Ana had used [ Star Revolver ] to deflect the attack for them.

Bam

Ana's all six star beams shot at the same time and clashed with the Dire Bear's paw, which was just about to make contact with Hueg's sword, which eventually resulted in the Dire Bear's right front arm getting destroyed, making it stumble backwards.

Hueg took this as a chance and used [ Flurry of Wind ], killing the Dire Bear in front and the potential offensive beasts around it.

"Phew~" Hueg sighed in relief and then looked behind him at Lily, who was wiping the sweat off her forehead. He asked with concern. "Are you okay?"

"Yes," Lily nodded her head. "And thank you for saving me."

Then she looked behind to thank Ana too, but saw Ana standing before Marley, who was slumped onto the ground.

Ana aimed her fingers at Marley below like she was holding a gun and said, looking down at Marley with an icy cold glare. "Die."
