Chapter [174]The Demons First Attack.

"What the heck was she doing to me?!"

I yelled at Kazikato, shaking him.

"She said she gave you a gift!"

"She nearly killed me!"

That dragon was going to kill me!

And what gift?

WHAT GIFT??

"She said it was a seal, to help you or something!"

"Bulls.h.i.+t!"

We both wrestled, and meanwhile, my anger reached its peak...but eventually I had to calm down.

"Sigh..."

'Well, at least I got some answers.'

I looked at the dragon Mark on my back, and although it wasn't filled in, I was happy.

So this is what my true dragon form.

Since I can't activate my dragon form because of the risks, I am happy that I at least get to know what it looks like.

"Hey boss, look, I have one too now."

"Hmm?"

I turned to Kazikato, Who was showing off his back, which now had a dragon identical to his dragonic form on it.

The only difference in it being... too emo?

Death skulls, Curses, and the Dragon weren't as menacing as mine, but it is covered in armor of bones with full black and white filling did make it look great.

Exceptionally well, in fact.

Not as great as mine though.

"Look doesn't it look cool?"

"Yeah it does, but you know what will make it look even greater?"

I said to him, urging him to ask.

"What?"

And he asked.

"Muscles!"

Kazikato doesn't have muscles on his body at all, but for some reason still has enormous strength.

But hey, it would be good for him to have a nice Physique.

"Drop down and give me 100 pushups!"

"Huh?"

"Drop down and give me 100 pushups!

NOW!"

I forced Kazikato to do 100 pushups and started counting as I corrected his form.

"20, 21, that one doesn't count!"

"You know what you have to do right?

You're my backup plan!"

Backup plan for the event coming up.

The s.h.i.+eld and Hero Academy Training camp.

The event where demons attacked for the first time.

It was catastrophic, to say the least.

They attacked for the first time in the nov-my memories I have.

A joint training camp between the schools was set up By Oliver Olsfer and the deceased Hiroto Mitsuki.

s.h.i.+eld students would first visit the main campus of Hero Academy for a tour and then go to an island managed by either Academy for training.

And although I should be capable of handling this, I still can't expect any variables.

Which is why I have Kazikato.

I'm going to station him close to the Island, and in case anything goes wrong, he will rush to my aid.

Alice won't be of any help, and I trust this man a lot.

And I'm confident, no one can go against us two if we are together.

"87!"

Whilst I was counting his pushups, I failed to notice that Alice had very recently come into the room.

She was presented with the sight of two Teenagers, neither with their s.h.i.+rt on, covered in tattoos to her and doing pushups.

She silently left the room.

***

Hero Academy, an Academy that had been started by another of the Golden Trio, By Hiroto Mitsuki before his death.

It was originally the second-ranked Academy in the world, but its position had been taken by Eden.

Hiroto Mitsuki had set it up a few years before his death, and although it was behind s.h.i.+eld, it wasn't anything to laugh at.

The top 50 students of s.h.i.+eld, along with the top 50 of Hero Academy will join together in a training camp, overseen by useless executives.

It was something that had been decided on by Oliver and Hiroto Mitsuki.

It was the first time the protagonists had clashed with Demons together.

And they had lost miserably, contrary to one original expectation of plot armor saving the protagonists and students.

Multiple students had died, and the only reason some had survived was that Elijah, had for the first time Activated [DECIMATION] for the first time at 100%.

There was a great cost to it, but they had survived.

That was all that mattered.

It was an event that forced the major character development of every Main character.

Especially Elijah.

He had seen so many dies because of his weakness.

He had made an oath to himself that he would never ever let it happen again.

And thus he would spend his entire vacation training him to the max, evolving into a dragon.

It was after this incident, that Both s.h.i.+eld and Hero Academy would be criticized, and the two academies would had to take some interesting measures to improve their reputation.

But it would never lift the mood and sorrow of the deceased families of students.

The current director of Hero Academy would have to retire because of the backlash.

It was a gruesome event that would greatly impact Humanity.

Their greatest talents would have been slaughtered before they could bloom.

However this time...there were changes to the students.

They would shock the world instead this time.

And someone, who knew about this event beforehand, would learn that nothing...ever goes as planned.

A hooded figure sat upon a rock in a desolate land with purple skies.

His physique was far too large to be considered human, and a menacing war axe was seen embedded in the ground next to him.

The figure was looking at a piece of paper, which contained the targets he needed to capture for freedom

[Sabrina Wellington:Only Alive]

[Alan Peccator:Dead or Alive]

[Elijah Ardor:Dead or Alive]

[Serena Soubuelle:Only Alive]

[Henry Fornum:Dead or Alive]

[Elaine Parker:Dead or Alive]

[Lucas Hiddlestone:Only Alive.]

The list continued on and on, displaying the names of the students of s.h.i.+eld and Hero Academy that he needed to either kill or capture for freedom.

And among them, he had already called dibs on one of the two highest priority targets.

[Sabrina Wellington:Only Alive]

[Serena Soubuelle:Only Alive.]

These two were the ones that had the highest priority from s.h.i.+eld, and even one of them would ensure his freedom.

And of the two, he set his eyes on the former.
