Chapter 1020: 16.66 First Red Star - Lesser Devils
They return to the open field for the next class after spending some time at the café. The three Instructors did not divide their class by race this time, instead instructing them to watch the summoning circles beneath their feet.
Instructor Luther D'Arcy explained the summoning circles under their feet. "We will now begin. Observe the Summoning Circles under your feet. Black ones summon Lesser Demons and red ones summon high ranking ones. But most of this needs a medium to activate. For ordinary summoning circles elemental energy is used as a medium but for devil summoning what you need to use as a medium is blood."
He produced a little vial of blood. The blood came from a regular Academy student. This was leftover blood from the transfusion of Darius Rueden. Blood is thrown on the black circle with demon markings while the students observe. Keylan Light was paying close attention to the situation and had left the field to Luther and Randall. As soon as something unexpected happens, he must trigger resurrection.
Randall Ruid also begins to explain the difference of the devil summoning circle. "As we all know, normal summoning varies in rank. The lowest summon uses white color and the highest is gold. For devil summoning the lowest is black followed by gray, light red, red orange and crimson red. Crimson red has the shade of dark red, it is the closest to the color of blood and is capable of summoning high ranking devils. Of course, the rank of the devil's not only depends on the color of the summoning circle but also on the medium. The stronger the owner of the blood is, the most likely it would summon a stronger devil."
"So if you want the world to be destroyed just use the blood of Lord Cassius or Lord Skoll to summon a demonic god! Ouch!"
Randall Ruid was hit behind his head by his lover Luther D'Arcy. Obviously what this playful werewolf had said is not something considered as a joke.
Instructor Luther D'Arcy especially warned them, "Listen, don't you dare use the blood of the three Ancestors to summon something. Unless you want something that isn't meant to be called here to come, don't even think of trying. You can try using your blood for ordinary summoning but not devil summoning. As failure to death the summoned devil meant death for those who can't pay their desires."
"Look out behind. The Lesser Devil had been summoned!"
Duke Luther had hardly finished speaking when they heard Keylan exclaim that the weaker devil Luther had called had emerged. The lesser devil resembled a large black bug rather than a humanoid being. It's a cockroach with crimson eyes, and when it opens its mouth to scream, it has the teeth of a shark pointed in rows.
Growls~
Keylan Light warned, "Use Purification! Don't directly inhale that gas that comes out of its mouth! That's miasma!"
When the Blood Race escaped before the spells dropped, the pupils who can wield light elements, notably Asher Light, employed Purification. Being dark entities, light-related spells can harm them just as they can demons. The Lesser Devil, the size of a cockroach, attempted to run, but the werewolf students stopped its route with punches and kicks, using their great power to defeat the lesser devil. Regrettably, strength alone is insufficient to combat the demon.
Randall Ruid watches them fight with a cold look apparently unsatisfied with their actions. "I told you just strength alone isn't enough! Use aura! Battle Aura, cover your whole body with it if you can't at least cover your fist or foot when you hit it!"
The werewolves were taught how to feel and use aura, but Mayonaka Yoru is the only one who can wield without difficulty. The original Fenrir Skoll had taught this child how to employ Battle aura in addition to Elemental attacks. He is such a genius that he can even incorporate materials into his aura assaults, making them more lethal than ordinary attacks.
Gryaaah!
Mayonaka Yoru snuck under the lesser devil's belly and kicked punches with aura and ice elements in his fist. Each fist that hit on the smaller devil's body produced an ice fist impression that spreads from the wound. It had a significant impact on the wound's healing. Mayonaka Yoru kicked the lesser devil 90 degrees, then he used his threads to bind up its legs and drag it to keep its exposed belly with red stone in the centre. Mayonaka Yoru attempted to hit the red stone, but his ice element was unsuccessful, so he reasoned that light elements could be able to smash it and remembered his lover.
"Pudding! Destroy the red stone with light elements!"
Esther Dawn drew his daggers and covered them with his battle aura and light elements with this yell. He stabbed the exposed red stone in the lesser devil's chest. The smaller devil burns to ashes and vanishes before everyone's eyes.
Instructor Luther D'Arcy announced, "Student Mayonaka Yoru and Student Esther Dawn, passed. Stand at the side you are not allowed to get involved in the next summon. Randall!"
As his name was called, Instructor Randall summoned 10 additional lesser devils. It's similar to the cockroach-shaped one, except this time it wasn't a cockroach. It comes in a variety of shapes, including a ladybug, a grasshopper, an earthworm, a fly, and others. The other students found it simpler after understanding what Mayonaka Yoru and Esther Dawn had done since they understood what to do next.
Conri Lycaon and Athan Vladimir employed every methods to weaken the target and confine their movements, while Amber Dawn and Asher Light prepared to assist with the last blow. Amber Dawn and Asher Light made their move to destroy the red stone once it was discovered. As predicted, the names of these four were the first to complete the work and were summoned to the side by the instructors. It took some time for the remaining students to do their task since they had to collaborate with students from different groups. After all, their heirs had already worked as a group they only need to follow their examples.
Regardless of their groups, the students learnt to collaborate in this class. It was unpleasant at first, but once they conquered the smaller demon as a duo or as a group, the students rejoiced in getting to know one another. Several students were wounded after this minor demon summoning instruction, but they were cured by Keylan Light.
Randall Ruid asked, "What do you guys learned from this lesson against the Lesser Devils? Care to share it in class."
The students remained silent, "..."
Conri Lycaon was the first to speak his thoughts, "Devil can only be killed with teamwork. One to destroy their core with light elemental attacks and the rest restraining it."
"Correct. For young and inexperienced ones like you guys, you need to work as a group or duo to kill one lesser devil. There is another way to kill it..." Randall Ruid remarked as he called another lesser devil. This time, the one that emerged is shaped like a mosquito, and the buzzing of its windings was like a relentless sonic onslaught for anyone who could hear it.
Randall Reed's hand was filled with an intense and fierce heat. The fire appears small, but it releases intense heat, making the surrounding region damp. He calmly flung the fire orb at the lesser devil, and everyone just stood there and watched it scream out and burn to ashes.
Instructor Randall Ruid said, "Those who can exert the limit of their elements can kill it with elemental attacks alone. Refine your elemental energy and restrain it to the smallest size you can suppress. This costs a lot of energy but it is extremely useful when trying to kill Lesser Devils. To perfect this kind of attack we would include training to increase your energy reserves. By the way even if you puke for feeling bloated we won't stop it even if you explode. Instructor Keylan can revive you anyway." The wide on his handsome face makes him look like a merciless demon that loves to torture them.
Nonetheless, Luther D'Arcy and Keylan Light did not prevent Randall Ruid from teaching the students how to refine their elemental energy. Unless it willed it, it was difficult to repress the natural aspects of the world. To do so, one needs have a strong will to govern one's own powers. Even Keylan Light did not anticipate such a possibility and acted as Randall Ruid previously demonstrated.
He summoned a light sphere in his palms and continued to pump elemental energy into it while repressing. He kept doing that until the sphere turned golden, with indications of an ancient language he doesn't comprehend.
Keylan Light mumbled, "What language is this? I can't understand it myself."
"Ancient Elemental Language. The language of elements. They aren't merely elements that had no thoughts or physical body. Strong elementals have their own vessels in other worlds." Luther D'Arcy explained.
Despite the fact that it was meant to keep the children from comprehending, Keylan Light understands Luther's words. It is predicated on the presence of other universes. He had no idea where these individuals originated from, but they were clearly not from this planet.
Keylan Light asked, "Is it alright for you guys to teach this knowledge in our world? I mean, isn't this a secret of your world?"
"Pfft! What secret? This is the basis of basics. Even children from our world knew about it as soon as they were born." Randall Ruid said.
The Demigod of this plane was taken aback; this great refining of elemental energy was not even considered a secret method in this people's realm, demonstrating exactly how powerful the creatures from the same world as theirs are.
Luther D'Arcy understood what had astonished Keylan Light when he saw his horrified countenance. But he murmured something in his ear that rendered the man dumb.
"Only beings with the might of Gods exist in our world."
"Doesn't that mean you two are, too?"
"Of certainly! hmp!"
"We are."
The responses of Randall Ruid and Luther D'Arcy caused Keylan Light to doubt his own existence. Like how can there be so many Gods, and two of them were even subservient to those two Lords? Doesn't it imply they are much more powerful than regular gods?
Randall Ruid said, "Did we break him?"
"Leave him to calm down on his own. Check the students. Some of them were over their limits." Luther D'Arcy said.
Randall Ruid said, "Yes, Honey~"
On the field, several students attempted to go overboard and nearly implode themselves, but were stopped by Randall Ruid, who restrained their elements until they regained control. Randall Ruid and Luther D'Arcy continue to keep an eye on the youngsters, while Keylan Light pretends he didn't hear anything just now. After honing his elemental force, a Golden Egg dropped into his hands, leaving him helpless.
Keylan Light screamed, "Ack! What is this!?"
His abrupt cry stunned the two professors as well as the students. Several students were agitated, and their elements exploded on their faces. Keylan Light had no choice but to revive them on the spot.
Randall Ruid questioned, "What the hell is wrong with you? Are you trying to kill the brats?"
"E-Egg... An Egg?!" Keylan Light stuttered in panic.
Luther D'Arcy looks at the golden egg in Keylan Light's palms and then adjusts his gaze to inspect the Demigod before him, and he is surprised that this alleged Demigod's might is about to attain ascension and become a true God. Furthermore, the Heavenly Laws of this world were bestowing upon him a gift that was even stronger than the one bestowed to the heaven's beloved's son, Asher Light. This is the blessing of the world's laws which can only be attainted when the heavenly laws of that world gave it's recognition to one of it's creation.
Annoyed, Randall Ruid commented as he saw the golden egg in Keylan Light's hands, "What's with the egg? Did you lay it?"
