“Ahaha, can’t deny the fact that I’m impressive, right? What a bunch of scum. There are so many of you guys, yet none of you could even break this guy’s skin. In the end, I have to be the one to save all your a̲s̲s̲e̲s̲!”

Lucas said haughtily, almost like he had rid himself of all the humiliation he suffered and proved himself. With a smirk, he scanned the unpleasant expressions on his teammates’ faces, making his disdain and disappointment toward them known.

“Since that’s the case, we’ll be leaving now,” Durance said with a nod.
“Huh?”

Lucas’ face stiffened as he looked at Durance who swiftly stowed the small silver sword away in his sleeve.

“Wait… You guys are going to just… abandon me?”
“Well, you’ve already figured out the enemy’s weakness and came up with a countermeasure. It shouldn’t be hard to stall him.”
“But…”

Just when Lucas was about to say something, he was interrupted by Durance.

“No buts, we believe in you…”

Durance said earnestly, “It was as you said, we’re just a bunch of scum who aren’t of any help. Instead of staying here and being a hindrance, completing her royal highness’ mission is our main priority.”

“……”

The arrogant look on Lucas’ was instantly wiped away when he saw Shiloah straightening up again. The latter appeared to be completely unscathed as Lucas’ punches merely numbed him for a while, instead of putting any scratches on him.

Lucas’ eyelids twitched. He was not stupid either. At this point, he naturally guessed the ability of that weirdo on their enemy’s a̲s̲s̲, even without Princess Lesiah telling.

It turned out that he did not manage to break the enemy’s skin either!

How should he continue this battle?

Was sacrificing himself… the only way out of this?

Lucas was crestfallen, feeling like there was a heavy rain pouring in his heart. If he knew things would turn out this way, he might as well just fight with the rest instead of playing hero.

Just then, a warm and large hand grabbed his shoulder.

Like finding his glimmer of hope, he snapped his head up and met a pair of pale golden and compassionate eyes.

“Durance… You…”

“No need to say anything, I know.” Durance patted Lucas’ shoulder a few times. “You are actually the strongest among us, right?”

“Huh?” Lucas was dumbstruck.

“You have obviously outperformed us in both mentality and strength, yet you covet nothing, not even the generous interacademy competition’s grand prize. I don’t feel deserving of it as the champion of the said competition.”

“N-No… I…”

“No need to be modest… If you keep up with it, it will just appear like a disguised pride.” Durance bumped his fist to Lucas’ chest with a smile.

“Go, I believe in you.”

“……”

Lucas stood rooted to the spot. He just wanted to point at the f̲u̲c̲k̲i̲n̲g heavens angrily and shout, “DAMMIT WHYYY?! I JUST WANTED TO PLAY HERO, IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR? AND YOU GUYS, HAVE YOU NO CONSCIENCE AT ALL? YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT PRICE I HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS PLAN!”

After saying that, Durance decided not to tarry any longer. He exchanged looks with the others, then quickly recovered Golden Stella before running deeper into the corridor.

Rosdell quickly followed. Choobchoob hesitated for a moment. She threw Shiloah a vile look, then clenched her teeth and chased after Durance.

Shiloah tried to give chase, only to be stopped by a naked and flirty man.

“Hey you, stay here.”

The bitter look on Lucas’ face did nothing to reduce the sex appeal he was oozing with. Rather than that, it was better to say that there was some kind of flame burning in his eyes.

That was…

Something akin to sending the helve after the hatchet. Since he had already fallen into the abyss, it did not matter if he fell deeper into it.

The current Lucas had nothing to fear.

“Ohoho, I can let you go as long as you stay out of my way.” Shiloah quickly shifted his gaze away from Lucas. Only god knew what he saw on Lucas’ face to make him concede immediately.

“Dream on. I have my dignity at stake here, don’t even think of getting past me!”
“The moment those things appear in your mind, the last shred of your dignity is gone.”

Shiloah forced himself to turn his head and look straight at Lucas, suppressing a wave of nausea.

“Don’t go thinking I can’t do anything about you, I just have to…”
“Ga…”

A third voice appeared, even though there were only both of them around.

The expression on Shiloah’s face changed slightly. Gaz… was awake.

“Gaga, Lady Cornelia really kicked me hard.”

Gaz slowly stirred awake, cracking his eyes while smacking his lips, as if he was recalling something.

While smacking his lips, he finally realized something was wrong. He could feel a wave of disgust surging throughout this body.

Since he was sharing the same body with Shiloah, it was only normal their emotions could easily affect each other.

“Gaga, what’s going on? Did you fall into a cesspool, Shiloah? Why do I feel so disgusted all over?”
“Wait!”

Shiloah tried to stop what was going to happen next, but Gaz ignored him. Always having a mind of his own, he turned Shiloah’s a̲s̲s̲ to the front.

What greeted him was a naked Lucas, who was staring blankly at a man’s a̲s̲s̲ turning to the front by itself.

Due to the [All Seeing] ability that he now shared with Shiloah after their fusion, he saw all the thoughts that were going through Lucas’ mind.

Gaz’s eyes widened. It was a shock.Followed by stun. And finally terror.

After freezing 0.05 seconds, Gaz switched back to his original position without saying a word. He took control of Shiloah’s feet and frantically escaped in the opposite direction, almost as if they were chased by a perverted maniac with a sinister smile on his face.

“What are you doing, Gaz?!”
“Ga, escaping, of course!”
“Why? You think I can’t beat that mortal?”
“Ga, this isn’t a question of whether you can beat him or not. Did you not see the thoughts running through his mind?!”
“…..”

Shiloah stayed silent. Of course he saw but compared Lady Cornelia’s mission, this was only a trivial matter…

“Gaga, you think it’s trivial! But if that pervert really does that, it’s me who suffers!! Don’t forget, it’s me who is on your a̲s̲s̲ now!!!” Gaz yelled hysterically with tears brimming in his eyes.

After yelling that, Gaz took control over most of Shiloah’s body through some powerful willpower and ran away without looking back.

The mission to stop those people? Don’t even think about that! If I stay here any longer, I won’t be able to retain my dignity! I do not wish to be done by a man!!

Lucas watched Shiloah escape with a twisted smile on his face. In the narrow and silent corridor, his soft voice rang out clearly.

“Who cares as long as it’s a girl in heart? It’s dark here anyway. Boy or girl, everyone’s the same once the lights are out,” he muttered.

Then with a speed he would sprint in a 100-meter dash, he chased after Shiloah.

“GAGAGA! DON’T COME ANY CLOSER!!!”

Miserable screams echoed throughout the corridor.

……

“S̲h̲i̲t̲… My magical gems…!”

Diana looked at the precious magical gems she used to save her life, feeling extremely heartbroken.

She had only been able to afford them after living frugally a few years and earning through servicing the public as the disciplinary committee’s president.

All of them had shattered, turning into a pile of broken stones. All the enemies launched at them were just a few strands of hair that would quickly regrow.

Did she have to be this merciless…? How were they supposed to go on like this?

Cornelia was getting closer and closer. So close that Lesiah and Diana could see the cold smile on her face.

Let’s see where you can run.

Cornelia curled her fingers, crumpling up the space in front of her like paper before rolling it out forcefully.

Ripples instantly appeared in space, before sweeping toward Lesiah and Diana like tidal waves.

Diana’s face contorted in panic. The only remaining magical gems on her staff promptly shattered, bursting into a blinding light.

The light barrier stopped the spatial ripples, but Diana had already spent all of her magical gems.

Casting spells under Cornelia’s nose was a fool’s errand. It was simply impossible, unless the mage had reached to the point where they could form magic with just a single thought.

“It’s over, worms…”

Cornelia’s cold voice appeared in Lesiah and Diana’s ears, hitting them like a ton of bricks.

Lesiah felt her limbs turn cold, but gritted her teeth and used what was left of her strength to increase her speed.

Even so, what good could it possibly do?

As long as they were within Cornelia’s field of vision, distance meant nothing.

This white haired monster could easily kill both of them like mosquitoes with just a wave of her hand.

Nothing could possibly make up for the gap in their strengths.

Cornelia raised her hand again, seemingly about to launch her final attack to end this farce.

Yet, her hand stopped midair.

In fact, not just her hand. She came to a complete halt..

She spun her head around, gazing into the distance. Her white hair floated weightlessly, making her look like a furious demon.

Anger burned intensely in her eyes.

“THAT GOOD-FOR-NOTHING SHILOAH! HE FAILED TO EVEN STOP THOSE WORMS!”

How dare he let someone step into the forbidden zone… I should have rebuilt him!

“Little hand.”
“At your… service…”

A jade-like hand peeked out from behind Cornelia’s back. She was quivering slightly and so were her vermilion lips..

“I’ll leave these two to you.”
“Understood.”

“Shiloah and Gaz have let me down, you best not follow in their footsteps, or else…” Cornelia shot Little Hand a meaningful glance then continued calmly, “you shall become one with Gaz.”

Little Hand shivered at the warning.

Although she and Gaz were an item, what exactly did Cornelia mean by becoming one with Gaz…?

An abnormally slender figure suddenly popped into her mind’s eye…

ANYTHING BUT THAT!

“Your humble servant won’t let you down, Lady Cornelia! I will get rid of them once and for all!”
