"What..."
Everyone looked at the wall, which had been frozen into an ice sculpture and then shattered, and gasped in shock.
"Step back."
Kerori immediately rushed in front of everyone and cast her magic. Her magic was also ice, so it should be useful. However, to everyone's disbelief, when the ice reached Maimaro, it spontaneously combusted.
"What?"
"Hehehe, where do you think I came from? The extreme north, the land of bitter cold, that is my hometown, and I have long since adapted. The flames on my body are my soul... Whoosh whoosh!" Maimaro frantically blew at the blue flames on his body. Everyone looked at Azu.
"Uh... I wanted to test if the Fire Shore Flower could attract his flames..." Azu explained.
"Damn it!" Maimaro glared angrily at Azu, then charged directly at Kerori. It was a joke; that side was definitely not to be trifled with. This little girl over here looked easy to deal with.
"Watch out!" Sabro immediately created several long spears and sent them flying towards Maimaro. However, because Maimaro was made entirely of bones, there was no actual damage. But this scene made Kerori suddenly react.
"Ice Seal!" Kerori created ice cones and shot them at Maimaro, but not at his body, but at... his feet.
With his feet frozen, Maimaro couldn't walk... Or could he? Maimaro smiled slightly. At this moment, the index finger of his right hand was gone, and... in a corner no one noticed, the finger was aimed at Kerori's head.
"Let's make a bet," Maimaro said, pointing at Kerori's head and making a gun gesture with his right hand.
"3... 2... 1..."
Instantly, Kerori subconsciously dodged to the side, and Kerori's ear was instantly pierced.
"Ah!"
Everyone looked at Kerori.
"Kerori!"
"I'm fine! Watch your surroundings!" Kerori covered her ear, freezing it to stop the bleeding. She had clearly seen the object that attacked her just now.
"It's a finger bone!"
The few of them glared at Maimaro.
"Oh dear, why are you getting angry, hehehe."
Maimaro sensed something. The finger bone instantly returned to his hand, and he immediately broke free from the ice seal. A coffin appeared on the spot, almost trapping him inside.
"Oh dear... what a pity, what a pity." Teacher Machi walked over from behind everyone and looked at Maimaro, who had jumped away.
"Tutankhamun's Demonic Dream, I really don't want to go into this coffin," Maimaro said, but his gaze was fixed on the battle between Shesi and Atlee.
"Battle! What a thrilling battle!" A blush appeared on Shesi's face, echoing the blood flowing from the wounds on Atlee's body. It was as if Shesi was carving a rare work of art... even if this artwork was already riddled with holes, it was still a unique piece of art, wasn't it?
Maimaro, on the other hand, was deep in thought.
"Damn it, I originally thought I could threaten them with Miki later, but now it seems that even a Teacher won't let me go..." Maimaro looked at Atlee.
"Let's go, Atlee. If we don't leave now, they'll be here."
"Alright..." Atlee smiled helplessly at the words, then looked regretfully at Shesi opposite him.
"What a beautiful demon. I look forward to our next encounter... Oh, and here's a gift."
Atlee pushed aside the cocoon, revealing Miki's face.
"Do you like this guy? Though I don't know if this is Shesi's consciousness now," Atlee said, smiling at Shesi.
"This woman? Who is she?" Shesi looked at the woman in front of him in confusion. As a left arm, he hadn't awakened back then. He only awakened during his later training... So, to him, he truly didn't know the woman in front of him.
"Ah... it seems it's useless then. So I guess I can use her as a human shield, right? Hehe," Atlee said, laughing.
"It doesn't matter. I will definitely keep you both here." Shesi placed the blade in his palm, covering it with his hand, letting his blood flow onto the blade.
"Karma Flame Blade." The blood ignited, surprisingly with black flames. This scene shocked everyone.
"Flames that have never appeared before... black..."
"These are Karma Flames, you know. Once they stick, they'll use your flesh and blood as fuel and burn," Shesi said to the shocked Atlee.
"Uh... really... that's a bit scary then," Atlee said, breaking into a cold sweat. The unknown is always the most terrifying.
"However... we won't be staying," Atlee said, seeing that Maimaro had already arrived, and pulled out a teleportation array.
"A teleportation array? Are you kidding me?" Shesi burst out laughing at the sight.
"What?"
"Who do you think suddenly started selling teleportation array scrolls, which were originally high-end items, in the market?" Shesi said, laughing up at the sky.
"What do you mean... could it be..."
"That's right, it was me! Didn't you know to check the creator's name in the bottom left corner when you buy things?"
Atlee looked at the bottom left corner of the scroll, but the name there had been crossed out.
"Oh, you even bought defective products? That unscrupulous merchant sold them to you?"
Shesi... no, now he should be called the "Demon King's Left Hand," looked at the two opponents, who were ready to attack. But in an instant, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.
"Pfft, tch, can't hold on anymore?" Shesi looked at Iruma.
"Hey, Iruma, next time remember to tell your brother to train more. He's really weak."
Iruma was stunned at the words.
"Huh? Ah, ouch."
Shesi then walked over to Iruma, swayed, and then knelt on one knee, supporting himself with his sword plunged into the ground.
"Tch, I'm not weak at all! It's already impressive that I could support your movements for so long!"
Shesi recovered and then looked at the two of them.
"Surrender. The Teachers have already arrived."
"Surrender? Your Teacher is still in my hands, isn't she? At least she can be exchanged for my life, right?" Atlee negotiated. At this point, thinking about escaping with a teleportation scroll was definitely unrealistic, but as long as he... "What do you think?"
"Of course, you can, right? After all, you personally chose them... her..." Atlee almost said Shida, realizing it, and immediately stopped himself.
"What are you doing here? I don't think you're here for tourism." Shesi wanted to confirm if it was still the same as in the previous life's manga, where they came to see if he and Shesi had Delkira's magic.
"Oh, we just came to see if there were any cute newcomers who could join us," Atlee explained.
"Is that really true?" Shesi didn't believe it at all. Coming out of the archives must have been to find his and Iruma's files, after all, both of their files had Delkira's seal on them... "Alright then, you can put Teacher Miki down and leave," Shesi pondered for a while and then said to Atlee.
