Chapter 1692: Cliche fight between the protagonist and the villain

Before Haru, Shin, and their group walked into the building, the investigators and the security guards of the Earlshide Kingdom apprehended Oliver Schtrom since he might be the perpetrator who had caused Kurt to turn into a devil, and they were right, after all, Kurt's name was disclosed by the King, but Oliver knew Kurt's name, which was pretty much suspicious and they decided to catch him without hesitation, but Oliver only laughed, telling his purpose of turning Kurt into a devil with a cliche like a line, before he started the fight with everyone.

During the fight, the wall of the building was destroyed, and when the wall was destroyed, Haru, Shin, and their group just happened to meet Oliver, who was fighting everyone with ease.

Haru didn't join everyone, but rather, he was standing in front of the girls to protect them while looking at Shin and August, who started their cliche monologue too.

Shin had a serious expression on his face, and when he saw Oliver, he quickly realized who he was. "Aug, is that...?"

"Yeah." August nodded. "Our middle school teacher, Oliver Schtrom."

Oliver smiled when he saw August. "My, if it isn't Prince August and the grandson of the hero, Shin Wolford." He then smiled, looking at Haru, who was at the back. "And if I'm not wrong, there's also the youngest council of the Els, Kasugano Haruka." In truth, compared to both August and Shin, he was warier of Haru since from the beginning to the end, Haru's existence was very low-key, and he could see that Haru didn't even put him in his eyes, which made him feel slightly strange since he felt that everything was under his control or something, but he was a devil. He didn't think that he would lose against a normal human.

"Please run away, Prince August! This is the culprit behind the demon!" The soldiers who were defeated quickly screamed.

"What?" August was startled.

Shin clenched his fist tightly and looked at Oliver in anger. "You're the one who has turned Kurt into a devil?"

"Yes. He danced to my tune so well. It was fascinating." Oliver sounded so confident and amused at the same time.

Shin gritted his teeth and couldn't hold back his anger anymore. "Is that right?" He then, without hesitation, leaped and moved very fast, taking out his sword from the space storage. "He's the one who is behind everything!" Moving his body around, before he arrived, he sent out flame magic toward Oliver.

Oliver only showed a smug smile and used barrier magic, blocking Shin's flame magic.

"HAAAA!!!!" Shin screamed.

"......."

Haru felt that it was too painful to watch them, even though he had to admit that Shin was strong. Oliver might be able to defeat a lot of soldiers, but just one of his punches was enough to defeat either of them. Well, his punch might be able to destroy the continent too, but he wouldn't say it.

Haru didn't want to be noticeable, so he only watched the fight from a distance, and he also wanted to protect the girls. After all, when Oliver was cornered by Shin, no one knew what he would do, right?

The fight between Shin and Oliver continued, and when Oliver had a smug smile on his face, blocking Shin's magic, Shin slashed his sword toward Oliver, but that slash was dodged.

Oliver was startled, but then, his calm smile returned once again. "That sword is a magic sword, right?"

"Could be!" Shin then slashed his sword again, but Oliver's movement was like a waltz, dodging, avoiding all of Shin's sword attack.

"As expected, you're dangerous." Oliver raised his palm and sent out a ball of magic power toward Shin.

Shin, as the protagonist of this world, dodged Oliver's magic, still didn't show an intention to give up, beating up Oliver in front of him. He put his hand on the ground and used his magic to create a huge spike from the earth.

Oliver jumped into the air!

"If you're in the air, you won't be able to dog--" Shin couldn't finish his words since he was in shock when he saw Oliver not fall to the ground but rather hover in midair.

"So not even the great wise man's grandson can use a floating magic?" Oliver asked with a smug smile, but...

*Swoosh!*

"What?!" Oliver was startled, especially when he heard the sound of something that broke the air, but then it was too late.

*Stab!*

"Arhhgg!!!" Oliver held his shoulder that was stabbed with an arrow, then stared at Haru while gritting his teeth, at the person who had caused this injury to him, and as expected, he felt that Haru was the most dangerous among all, after all, this guy had always been very low-key that he forgot about him for a moment, after all, everyone's attention was on Shin who used various techniques and magic to defeat him, but in that very moment, someone made a sneak attack, which made him startled and rose his alertness toward him.

It was only a moment, but Oliver saw Haru was looking at him with a smile. He started to sweat. After all, from that smile alone, he could probably tell that arrow could hit his head, but Haru didn't do that, which was why he was grateful, and at the same time, he was wondering why Haru didn't kill him immediately.

"Haru!" Shin was surprised when he saw Haru had shot Oliver with an arrow.

"Hurry up and deal with him, Shin," Haru shouted.

"Yeah!" Shin then focussed on Oliver. "I might not be able to jump, but I can fight to stay in the air for a moment!" He then jumped, slashed his sword, and used his fire magic to blast Oliver.

Haru was speechless at Shin since this guy was screaming when he was about to make his attack, and because of this, it gave Oliver a chance to protect himself. Oliver was still wary of Haru, so his protection was at a high level, but Shin's attack was able to destroy Oliver's eyepatch.

But at that moment, when Oliver's eyepatch was destroyed, everyone was in shock since they could see Oliver's red eyes!

"Red eyes..." Shin was in shock. "You have become a devil, yet your senses and reasons are still intact?"

"Reason?" Oliver stared at Shin with a frown and said, "If we assume reason to be that which makes a person a person, then that may be something a bit different in my case."

"What do you mean by that?" Shin asked with an agitated voice.

"........" Haru let out a long sigh and felt tired at Shin since this guy kept talking, and wouldn't it better to defeat Oliver then asked Oliver later, what was the used to ask that kind of question now?

"Now, I've become like this humans have been reduced to creatures that mean nothing to me!" Oliver showed a maniac and furious smile, staring at everyone, causing their bodies to tremble. "Whether I exploit them or kill them makes no difference anymore!"

"Why you..." Shin gritted his teeth and used his new magic. "I need to stop him!" He then used his usual fire magic, but this time, it destroyed the ceiling and the roof of the building, causing the open sky to be seen from inside the building.

"What's the matter? Is fear making you clumsy? This is why I can't abide humans," Oliver said with a smile.

"Just stay there a little longer!" Shin had a serious expression, and he was preparing his magic.

Haru then looked up and saw numerous magic circles in the sky.

It might be because of what Haru had done before almost killing him, so Oliver had been paying attention to Haru, and he also didn't even take out the arrow that was stabbed into his shoulder and also followed Haru's gaze to the sky, which made him dumbfounded.

"You're too late!" Shin knew that Oliver realized his magic, but it was too late for him to escape!

Then a beam of lights rained down over Oliver, which caused him to scream in pain.

*BOOOOOOOM!*

Shin's magic was very fierce, but because of the light, everyone closed their eyes since it was too blinding, and even though they couldn't see anything at this moment, they could hear a loud sound of an explosion which made them tremble.

When Shin's magic ended, August quickly asked in a shout, "Did you get him?!"

"Don't jinx it!" Shin quickly refuted with a panicked expression.

Haru ignored both Shin and August, then caressed the heads of Yuri and Lynn. "You two, alright?"

"Um." Lynn and Yuri nodded.

"Still, you can use a bow, Haru?" Maria, who had recovered, quickly asked a question and thought that this guy really could do anything, right?

"It's just a small skill," Haru said and put his bow back on the space storage. He then saw Shin started to talk with everyone who asked him about how Shin was able to use that magic just now, and as expected, this guy explained his magic without any guilt or something on his face, which made him let out a long sigh at Shin.

'This guy is too stupid, right?' Haru thought at that moment.
