The Narrow-Eyed Villain of the Demon Academy

Swoosh-.

I got up from my seat.

“Kyle, I’ll be back.”

“Where to? Hey, I’m coming too.”

“You can’t leave the prison, remember?”

“Now that you mention it, you’re right. So I get to eat all of this?”

“You pig.”

“What?!”

“Shall we go?”

“No, I’m good. Oppa, you go alone. I don’t want to go there.”

“……Alright.”

At Lever’s words, I decided to go to the prison alone.

But then Lever got up and spoke.

“Brother, I’ll at least take you to the front. I can’t go inside though.”

“Thank you for guiding me.”

The prison was so vast that it would have been difficult to find my way around.

It was helpful to have Lever, a veteran of this place, show me the way.

I glanced back and said,

“Kyle, don’t cause any trouble and stay put. Oh, and…”

I drew out all the mana I had left and materialized darkness.

Darkness was created not from Bares’ or Adel’s mana, but from Fron’s.

Now there was no mana left in my body.

“What’s this?”

Kyle blinked at my doppelganger made of darkness.

I chuckled and said,

“This place is under the surveillance of Fron’s mother through our mana. That’s why I left some of Fron’s mana. Well, she didn’t react much, probably thinking I don’t have much mana left, but just in case.”

In short, thanks to Fron ripping me open to use his own mana, I was able to do this.

I would leave my doppelganger made of Fron’s mana to signal

“I’m in that prison.”

While I roamed free outside.

“Anyway, I’ll be back.”

I gave Kyle one last word and left the prison with Lever.

Of course, I used Position Exchange to get out.

***

The prison was vast, just as Lever had said.

It made me wonder how they built such a thing so high up, not on the ground.

It only made sense if they didn’t suspend it in the air like the Imperial Academy.

I looked around as I walked.

Countless cells lined the path leading to the large prison.

Every cell was filled with blood-stained whips, swords, and shields.

Did someone fight inside these cells?

That’s what it looked like.

As I continued walking, Lever stopped and looked back at me.

“Brother, we’re here.”

She pointed a finger somewhere.

I frowned.

There was nothing there?

As I tilted my head in confusion, Lever sighed.

“Are you sure you were really top of your class? You must be lying. Tell me the truth.”

“Oh, you caught me.”

“…….”

What was I supposed to say when she already knew?

I was a smooth-talking demon too, but Lever seemed to have a way with words.

I shook my head and walked forward.

“So, what do I do?”

I asked Lever as I walked through the space where the wall ended abruptly.

Lever pointed her finger at the center of the wall.

“Press that.”

“Alright.”

Click-.

The moment I pressed the center of the wall.

Clank…

A single brick sank in, creating a hole.

A hole just big enough for a child to fit through.

“I hope you find something inside.”

“……Yes.”

Lever waved at me as I was about to enter the hole.

Leaving Lever behind, I threw myself into the hole.

It was pitch black inside.

A space where I couldn’t see a thing.

Frowning, I moved forward.

And just as my patience was wearing thin.

I took out a match from my pocket.

Screech…

And the moment I lit the match, I couldn’t help but shudder.

The carnage that unfolded before my eyes.

How much blood had been spilled here? Every wall and the floor were stained crimson.

The occasional glimpses of gray bricks only proved that this wasn’t paint, but blood.

Scattered swords, broken blades, and decaying excrement.

Ugh-.

Nausea welled up inside me.

Seriously.

What kind of place was this?
