Chapter 1679 - Shin Who Is Too Naive
Chapter 1679 – Shin Who Is Too Naive
Shin quickly moved in front of everyone and created a barrier to protect them from the huge flame!
However…
Haru was faster, and suddenly a magic circle appeared in front of him, then the air dispersed and caused all the flames that were sent toward them to disappear without a trace.
"What?!"
Everyone was startled, and they looked at Haru at the same time, wondering how
Haru was speechless and asked, "Do you really have time to look at me? Can you see that someone just wanted to kill us just now?"
Hearing Haru's words, they quickly realized there was still a danger in front of them.
"What is he doing over here?" August frowned, looking at Kurt, who almost killed them.
"I thought that he was grounded."
"Does any of that matter now? The question is, why does he want to kill us?" Haru asked, pulling both Yuri and Lynn beside him.
Yuri and Lynn hadn't reacted, after all, it was their first time to meet such a scene, but when he felt his hands, they felt very secure at this moment.
"Haru…."
Yuri and Lynn looked at Haru at the same time.
"Don't worry, I'll protect you two," Haru said and gave them a gentle smile.
Sicily and Maria knew that it wasn't a time to think about this kind of thing, but when they saw Haru, Yuri, and Lynn, they felt very jealous, but no one noticed them, since all of their attention was on Kurt, who had almost killed them.
"Yeah, that was an attempted murder," August said in a cold sweat. "There's no way we can let this slide."
"Damn you, damn you, damn you, damn you….." A black aura emitted from Kurt, and he kept muttering "damn you" all the time. "Damn you!!!" Then a huge amount of magic energy that emitted from his body blasted everything around his surroundings!
Kurt's black aura and pressure made them tremble, and they couldn't believe what they had seen.
"He's demonized…!" Shin was in shock. He gritted his teeth and said, "Aug, Kasugano, bring everyone out of here."
Before August said something, Haru asked, "Shin, are you going to fight him alone?"
Shin moved forward and said, "I'll stop him one way or another."
"That's crazy! You should go with us too!" August quickly said.
Shin kept moving forward and said, "We can't let a demon run loose in the capital."
"Then I'll help," August said.
"What are you talking about? You have never fought against a demon before," Shin said.
"So we're just in your way?" August asked while gritting his teeth.
"Yeah." Shin didn't look back and said, "You're all in the way."
"….." Haru shook his head and said, "Well, Shin, if it's fire magic, then I can help you to stop it, let me help you." He didn't care about Shin's words, or rather he also agreed with Shin's words that everyone was weak, except for him, Lynn, and Yuri. Still, Lynn and Yuri didn't have any experience fighting a demon, and their bodies were trembling, so he didn't want them to fight the demon. After all, the identity of the demon was quite troublesome.
If the demon was a normal commoner, no one would care, but Kurt was a noble. Haru didn't have Shin's protagonist aura where both the Wise Man and the Guru would protect him no matter what. He was also an outsider in this kingdom, so he didn't want to be known for killing Kurt, but still, it was so rare to see the devil, so he was going to kill steal without anyone noticing.
'But do I need to kill him?'
Haru remembered that his quest was only to defeat a demon, so he might as well try to defeat Kurt to test it, but before that, he wanted to see Shin's ability first.
Shin was a bit hesitant when he heard Haru's words, but in the end, he agreed since he couldn't react when Kurt sent his fire magic toward everyone, but Haru could react so and erased the flame that was about to hit them. He had never seen such magic before, so he was curious how Haru could do it, but he knew that it wasn't the time.
"If the situation is dangerous, please run," Shin said.
"Why should I run away? I believe that you can win, Shin," Haru said with a smile.
"Thanks," Shin said with a smile, then looked at August, and said, "Aug, hurry up and go!"
August gritted his teeth and felt useless at this moment since he couldn't do anything to help his friend.
"Rather than staying here, your highness, you should report this matter to the teacher and the army quickly," Haru said calmly.
August felt his chest was heavy, but he nodded. However, before he said anything, Kurt sent them another attack!
A huge flame was coming toward them again, but there was another magic circle in front of Haru, and the huge flame disappeared without a trace.
"Shin, you should hurry up and defeat it. If it's everyone, you don't need to worry since I'll protect them," Haru said.
"Thank you, Kasugano-kun."
Shin didn't doubt Haru's power again and decided to defeat Kurt since he knew Kurt was dangerous.
When Shin moved, everyone could only see his back, and no one had an intention to move.
Haru could only shake his head and wondered how it felt like a cliche story where the main protagonist fought against a monster, and everyone would watch them from the side. He looked at August and said, "Your Highness!" Still, he needed to remind August since this guy was too slow, right?
August nodded and then told both Thor and Julius to get the teacher, but he was still there. He looked at Haru and said, "If you can't hold on, then I'll help you."
"…" Haru was too lazy to talk with August and took both Sicily and Maria to his side to protect them and watched Shin fight. However, still, he knew that the cause of an animal to be demonized was because the magic inside their bodies was out of control, and it should be similar to a human so what would happen if he took all of Kurt's magic? Or control it so it won't lose control?
Anyway, Haru wanted to see Shin's battles first.
—
Shin moved directly closer to Kurt and then sent him several fireballs, but…
*Baam!* *Baam* *Baam!*
Kurt, who was hit, screamed, then laid on the ground weakly.
"Eh? So weak?" Shin was startled at how weak this demon was, but Kurt, who was hit, quickly stood up again, and the amount of his magic power became bigger and bigger.
"WOLFORD!!!!!"
Kurt was furious and then sent out a huge flame once again.
This time, Shin dodged it, but before that, the huge flame disappeared again, which made him really wonder how Haru could do this. Still, he was thinking about how to stop Kurt and thought that it might be possible to save him by absorbing the out-control magic on Kurt's body. However, before he did that, Kurt was about to explode himself!
If it was a normal situation, then no one would think too much, but Kurt gathered a huge amount of magic power on his body, and once he exploded, then even everyone in the academy would be killed!
"I won't let you!" Shin sent out a wind blade one after another, but Kurt's sheer amount of magic deflected it. He gritted his teeth and wondered whether that was the only way.
—
Haru looked at Shin and could only shake his head. "Yuri, Lynn, stay here for a moment. I'll help Shin."
Yuri and Lynn looked at Haru's eyes and nodded since they knew Haru's power very well.
"Wait! You're going to hold him—" August wanted to say something, but he was ignored by Haru, and he had already left. He then gritted his teeth, looked at Yuri and Lynn, then asked, "Is that alright, Carlton, Hughes?"
"It's alright. He's powerful." Lynn nodded without hesitation.
"Yes, I believe in my man," Yuri said with a smile.
Maria and Sicily looked at both Yuri and Lynn, then looked at Haru, hoping he could stop Kurt.
August wasn't sure what to do, and the only thing that he could do was watch what was happening in front of them and help them when the situation was dire, even though he knew that he could do nothing.
—
Shin opened his space storage and took out a sword. He was about to slay down Kurt so Kurt wouldn't endanger everyone, but…
*Tap!*
Shin was startled when he felt his shoulder tapped. He turned his head and saw Haru was right beside him.
"I'll handle this," Haru said.
"Wait, it's dangerous, Kasuga–"
Shin didn't finish his words, but when he saw Haru, he suddenly saw Kurt scream, held his neck, and caused the magic gathered in his hands to disappear, then Kurt passed out.
"What?" Shin was wondering what was happening.
"It's done," Haru said simply.
"……." Shin really wondered what was happening.
"Wolford! Kasugano!"
Then everyone from the S-Class and the group of armies quickly ran to both Haru and Shin.
"Where's the demon?" The leader of the armies asked loudly since the situation was dire.
Haru looked at Shin, who was about to say something, and quickly gave him an elbow on the stomach.
"Ugh!" Shin quickly held his stomach and wondered why Haru suddenly gave him an elbow.
"He's the demon." Haru quickly pointed at Kurt, who had passed out.
"Huh?!"
Everyone was startled and looked at Kurt and felt that their bodies were trembling. After all, even though Kurt had passed out, his aura was very lingering around him, and this aura was very dangerous.
"What's happening?"
"I don't know. He's suddenly passed out, so you should quickly use this chance to catch him. If possible, don't let him wake up," Haru quickly said.
"Ah, yes!"
They quickly did what Haru had told them, but Shin looked at Haru and wondered why Haru said all of that, but Shin could see from Haru's eyes that he told him to shut up, so Shin shut his mouth. Still, he was confused and was wondering why Haru didn't let him talk.
Haru could only shake his head at Shin since this guy was too naive, right?
