I Became the Academy’s Kibitz Villain

Chapter 162: Kill The Duoexini (6)

Chapter 162: Kill The Duoexini (6)

Thwack, thwack, thwack.

I swung the baseball bat repeatedly.

With each strike imbued with Douls magic power, I crushed Duoexinis body.

The moment the bat struck the top of the head, Douls magic, sharp as a gust of wind, shredded Duoexinis skull.

When it connected with the shoulder, the already disjointed arm, hanging by a thread, was severed and flew off.

As Duoexini tried to crawl away, I poked his spine with the bat; a blade of wind slipped between the vertebrae, splitting his body in two.

Kr, aargh!

Even in a mangled state, Duoexini screamed.

The scream, seemingly produced not by vocal cords but by magic power, reverberated with pain despite the complete destruction of its physical tissues.

How, how can! Someone like you!

[Theres no need for more words.]

I had come prepared to exploit weaknesses and harnessed the power to target theirs.

Then, essentially, it was over.

[Vanish before the power of the Platinum Sun you so adore.]

Ziiiing.

Light once again emanated from my eyes.

This time, I didnt shoot a direct laser beam. Instead, I spread the net from the Goblin mask wide, dispersing it in all directions.

Aaaargh!!

Duoexinis body began to burn away.

I dragged him into the gap between dimensions, and although there was no sun here, the magic power of Yumir within me was equivalent to sunlight.

Demons existed in darkness and feared the sunlight.

Since Yumir represented the Platinum Sun in this world, I could purify the demon Duoexini with Yumirs magic power.

That was all it took.

Ah, no! I cant die here! At least, at least a bit more!

[What, you wished to die in a national cemetery or something? Thats unfortunate.]

More than half of Duoexinis body was now burnt away.

The battle was already in my favor, and it was futile for Duoexini to try to drag his body away, attempting to escape me or this room.

[Trying to run away again.]

Krak!

Puff!

I swung the bat toward his solar plexus.

His chest caved in, and Duoexini, like a cockroach pinned with tweezers, trembled violently in place.

Thwack, thump, thump.

Each blow made chunks of Duoexinis flesh fall off like foam.

As the flesh fell and tried to regenerate, I promptly dispersed the light of the Platinum Sun, annihilating his magical power.

[Youve been good at running away so far. But that ends now.]

Kr, hehehe, you you want something from me?!

Duoexini shouted at me, looking like a torso with a severed head.

Seeing that you dont kill me right away, chuk, you must want something from me!

[.]

What do you want? That, thats right! My, my presence was wrong? Then, then I wont appear before you anymore! I wont appear in Korea anymore!

Duoexini was desperate.

I, I cant die in such a place! My death should at least be used more meaningfully!

Even as a demon, feeling a serious threat to his life, Duoexini started begging me for mercy.

I cant die in such a place, in such an ugly state, can I?! Huh?! At least let it be on a live broadcast, cough, in front of many people Huh?! That, thats right! Ill die! But not here; do it in front of people!

Demons were afraid.

They feared humiliation and damage to their reputation more than death.

That Grand Cross! Your finishing move! Kill me with it in front of people! Dont kill me here, in this space isolated from the world! You need to build your reputation too! Duoexini, the monster who created 72 demons!

[Indeed, if I defeat you here, it would mean nothing.]

All the hardship for nothing.

And no one to acknowledge it.

[Only about three who fought with me would know. That Duoexini has been defeated and wont appear again.]

That, thats right! Make my death more, more glorious Krack!

[Im not interested.]

Thump.

Again, I dismantled Duoexinis body with the baseball bat.

Now, essentially, only Duoexinis chest and ribs covering the heart remained.

Crackle.

A burning sound filled the air as all traces of Duoexini vanished from the small gym.

Aside from the pulsating heart, no sign of Duoexini remained, and I focused the magic power at the bats end.

Swoosh!

I drove the blade of the Moon Sword into Duoexinis solar plexus.

It sliced through Duoexinis solar plexus like a knife through tofu.

Thud.

With the bats end, I pried open Duoexinis ribs.

Beneath the shattered, twisted ribs, a mass larger than a fist throbbed rapidly.

[So its you, Duoexini. Is the heart your core?]

Stop, stop!

A valve-like shimmer appeared above the red devils heart.

I concede defeat! So, please, dont let me die disgracefully in a place like this!

Eyes and a mouth emerged from the heart.

In a desperate bid, he transformed all his remaining magic power into organs for communication.

[Even in your final moments, you pretend to be human, rational trying to beguile me. How typical for a demon.]

But, even so! Consider this! You wouldnt want it to end like this, would you!

Duoexini continued to try to persuade me.

Honor! The honor of having killed Duoexini! An S+ grade demon, no, I God of Neptune! Ill grant you that honor! If you let me die in a more public, more glamorous place!

[Theres a misunderstanding you have, and I need to address it first.]

I aimed the bat at Duoexini.

[I dont enjoy conversing with someone like you. Do you know why Im still talking?]

.

[Because Ive already won.]

No uncertainties.

Victory was mine.

[You should be pondering why Im bothering with this pointless dialogue.]

What?

[It appears a great person like you cant grasp why youre in this predicament. Let me enlighten you.]

I set the bat down and crouched before him.

[I am a traitor.]

What?!

[I am a traitor. Repeat it thrice aloud, and Ill spare you today.]

!

Duoexini realized the gravity of his situation.

Though he had only one left, his eye filled with horror and rage as he glared at me.

You, youre toying with me!

[Yes.]

I lightly touched the heart with the end of the bat.

Aaaagh!

[Why scream like that? You havent even been exposed to sunlight yet.]

I plucked Duoexinis heart from his body with the bat and immediately purified his chest with sunlight.

Now, only Duoexinis heart remained.

[Shout it out. Show me you want to live.]

I, I am

[Even if others cant hear, I will listen here.]

I ama traitor!

Blood splattered from Duoexinis eyes.

A traitor! Selling my country, turning my back on my homeland, surviving like a parasite clinging to foreign powers!

Blood dripped from his mouth, and the hearts valve began to shrink.

Sa, save me!

[You still want to live after selling your country?]

I want to live! I dont want to die like this, in such a manner!

[I see.]

Flickering the golden magic in my eyes, I extinguished it.

Uh?

[Tsk.]

At that moment, the world began to crumble.

As soon as I withdrew my magic power, the alternate world confining Duoexini and me started to collapse.

Kr, hahaha!

The world fell apart.

The room of truth, created for the one-on-one battle, began to crumble gradually.

Youve used up all your magic power!! Yes, its impossible to keep using something like this!

[Certainly, the magic consumption is immense.]

Transferring the entity known as Duoexini from the original world to my world was no small feat. The duration it lasted was predicated on the fact that Duoexini could be easily subdued.

But that was now over.

This world, which might be called a barrier, started merging back into the original world.

Foolish one! Outside, before entering this space, my physical forms were scattered! My body, my half-self, my offspringthey are out there!

[.]

If even one survives, I can dwell in it! Hahaha, foolish one! Thats how villains are! Babbling eloquently but missing the crucial point in the end!

Duoexini mocked me, pulling out a clump of red veins from his heart and forming it into legs.

Goblin! I will definitely kill you! I will find the one who betrayed us among the Seven Stars, and together with that person, I will make sure youre both unmentionable trash in this world forever! I will, definitely! Hahaha!

[Stupid fool.]

I lowered the bat.

[I did toy with you, but talking to you was just to kill time.]

What, did you say?

[Release.]

I dissolved the bats entity and released the interspace.

With the sound of a clock ticking, Duoexini and I returned to the original world, inside the gym.

Huh! Foolish!

[!]

Duoexini saw it.

Right before him.

A sun more brilliant than the light emanating from my eyes.

Ah, aah, no! First, my!

[Ah.]

Yumir pointed a brilliantly shining golden sword at Duoexini.

Wait, just a moment! Sto, stop! I, like this

Swoosh!

Yumirs golden sword split Duoexinis heart.

The last moment.

Duoexinis eyes looked directly at me.

He realized.

That I, until the very end, had been toying with him.

[Ah.]

With the golden light, Duoexinis heart vanished, and Yumir looked up at me.

[Destroying it immediately, thats correct, right?]

As expected of Yumir.

[Yes. An impressively decisive action.]

[.]

Above the mask.

Yumirs eyes, shining golden, curved like a crescent moon.

And so.

What was once Duoexini quietly vanished inside an ordinary gym on Sejong Island.

Unbeknownst to anyone in the world, the end of Duoexini occurred.
