"...! There!"
After freeing itself from the dilatant, the deofolized human reeking of blood and crude oil caught the smell of one of the targets it was provided and launched itself after it.
Funnily enough, it didn't break down walls, being incredibly fast but also shockingly careful as it entered the main building of the Royal Academy, getting surprised where the fresh trail leads it.
The third woman on the list.
Another nurse.
This one, an abandoned daughter of some lesser noble house from the West that barely scraped by.
Chloe, or something.
The deofolized human found it funny.
Were the nurses more prone to care about that trash?
It would be the second nurse to die because she got too close to that trash.
Only that this one will be killed directly, and not in a set-up~
While the scent led it to the cafeteria instead of the hospital wing, as it was expecting, spotting its next target was easy.
She was there together with other nurses, amongst whom she was distributing healing crystals from the case she brought with her.
The cafeteria was full of wounded students… but not in numbers that would be difficult to accommodate in the hospital wing, making their decision to perform first aid there… odd.
In its current state, the deofolized human wasn't able to pay attention to such details for long, though. Its brain was focused on killing, and the gedwyld corruption was eating away at whatever little sanity there was left within it.
The burning desire to take away Rotsard Vallhall's loved ones was the only guiding light for what remained, and the fact that the list of them wasn't getting any shorter yet was simply too much to bear.
How should it be done…?
Just a quick jab with the spike from below, unseen, unnoticed…?
No…
Killing his loved one…
It wanted to do it directly…!
He deofolized human couldn't smile any wider, considering that its skull and therefore teeth were completely exposed already, and moved back a little.
A long spike grew straight out of its wrist, changing the whole arm into a lance…
"..."
*whoosh*
Its teeth clacked against each other, and multiple spells coiled around the spike.
The metal core got covered with drill-shaped rock that was surrounded by a swirling torrent of muddy water, and on top of that, a miniature tornado engulfed and hid it all.
That wasn't the end of the spells, though.
Even though the weapon itself was prepared, the deofolized human began casting the spells of itself… for the first time that day.
The other ones could wait! The more despair they go through, the better!
But this one…
This one was special…
Because…!
There was another life budding within her!
It must have been Rotsard's offspring!
Oh, to rip that woman apart and expose it so that Rotsard would realize what he lost~!
"~!"
The monstrosity shivered with excitement at the mere thought!
As the deofolized human deemed its preparation complete, it launched itself at its unaware target, speaking to some young kitchen-hand boy, without an ounce of hesitation!
No one could react as the speed of the attack was simply too great!
Most didn't even notice before it was too late!
"..."
Only the kitchen-hand boy, who was already looking in the right direction, saw it.
But seeing something and actually recognizing what it was, were two different things…
*WHAM*
The impact was spectacular, and the dust went everywhere!
*WHAM*
The second impact was a bit unexpected, but it had to be another unlucky person getting in the way and…
…wait…
Dust?
*WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM*
"Wh-what in the…?!"
Only when the deofolized human broke through the roof of the building after passing through all the floors, and finally saw the sky, it realized what was actually happening!
As it lowered its head, so the glare of its empty eye sockets could witness the enormous tree sprawling over the roof!
That very tree intercepted its attack and ejected it from the whole building! That couldn't be done by just any spell! Not with such efficiency and power!
"WHO DARES TO…!?"
The deofolized human roared, twisting itself in the air to position itself for a counterattack!
*thunk*
"Eh…?"
But that plan was foiled in a quite embarrassing way, with the deofolized human plopping against the surface of the translucent dome surrounding the entire Royal Academy.
The great barrier has been activated and cut off any external threat from entering…
As such, the monstrosity that has been thrown out has lost its access to it, and four of its targets…
"What? No! NO!"
*WHAM* *thummmmm*
The deofolized human called out in disbelief and slammed the spike with spells layered on top of it into the barrier it was standing on, but that only resulted in a rainbow of colors spreading on top of it…
….like an oil spill on the surface of water…
"NO! THAT TRASH WAS ABLE TO SPLIT IT! WHY CAN'T I BREAK IT?!"
The monstrosity cried out and unleashed a barrage of attacks on the great barrier, but the effect remained the same.
