Chapter 53 (1) - The Narrow-Eyed Villain of the Demon Academy
However, it was enough to deceive the flustered Kyle.
"You son of a b*tch!"
"As expected of someone on the human side, your choice of words isn\'t very demon-friendly. \'Cerberus bastard\' would be more accurate," I retorted.
"Shut up!"
The agitated Kyle fired off energy bolts indiscriminately.
I lightly dodged Kyle\'s attacks and taunted him.
I\'ve got him.Kyle is consumed by anger.
So he was unable to think straight.
If he had thought about it a little more, he would have realized that there was no connection between me and Ray.
It is a well-known fact that the Bares family supports me.
Since I am even accompanying Rene as her escort, it wouldn\'t be difficult to find out that I have been staying at the Bares family\'s estate.
So there is \'no\' chance that I, who was at the Bares family\'s estate until recently, would have met Ray, who is at the Imperial Academy.
However, since I haven\'t revealed any information, Kyle must think I have something up my sleeve.
That\'s what I intended.
"I don\'t know how much you know, but...."
Kyle gritted his teeth and cast another spell.
"I will definitely capture and interrogate you!"
"If you can, then go ahead."
I smiled mockingly.
Well.
It seems that I will not be the one interrogated, but rather you.
Puck-.
Kyle fired another energy bolt.
I used Position Exchange to deal with it.
Killing a wizard was the easiest thing for an assassin to do.
"Designation."
I spread out an arrowhead towards the energy bolt flying at me.
"Move-."
And the positions of Kyle\'s energy bolt and my body were reversed.
It was as if my body had moved ahead of the energy bolt.
Thud.
The energy bolt passed through the spot where I had been and pierced the floor.
Kyle opened his mouth as he watched the scene.
"…As expected, you\'re a teleporter."
"Something like that."
"Unbelievable...."
"Didn\'t you already know? I thought you had already finished investigating me."
"…That means you already knew my identity as well."
I shrugged.
I had only learned the identity of the disguised Kyle today.
But if there was a spy, they would have obtained all the information about the children of the Seven Deadly Sins and me.
‘That’s why I told my teammates that my ability was Teleportation during the entrance exam.’
If there was a spy, it was obvious that they would have approached my teammates during the entrance exam to find out my ability.
Well, it’s true that it’s a similar ability to Teleportation.
In some ways, you could say it’s an improved version of Teleportation.
Instead of using teleportation, which would greatly reduce the distance I could travel with the high mana consumption, I could swap positions with any designated object.
Position Exchange has the weakness of ‘not being able to switch places with a living being’, so it was a lie to make up for it.
‘Fortunately, it seems like he’s well-fed.’
Kyle’s expression hardened.
It seemed like he had noticed that his chances of winning were slim.
It was at that moment that I thought things were going to get easier.
"…I\'ll go all out."
Soon, Kyle’s eyes flashed with determination.
Immediately after, the entire room began to vibrate with intense waves of mana.
And mana clumps began to surround me.
Multiple magic, which can only be used when you reach the 3rd Circle of the magic realm.
‘At least twenty shots.’
I quickly scanned the situation.
Dozens of energy bolts were closing in on me.
It was impossible to switch places with the surrounding objects or clothes.
Behind Kyle.
Several energy bolts had been cast so that no matter where I teleported to, I would be annihilated.
So how could I avoid the energy bolts?
There was no need to use Absolute Concealment.
Because there was an easier way.
“Designate.”
At the same time as I uttered the incantation, I spread out the arrow.
Swish, swish, swish, swish, thud!
Dozens of energy bolts that Kyle had cast rushed towards me.
I switched places with the energy bolt that was closest to Kyle.
“Move.”
The moment I dodged all the energy bolts and reached right before Kyle.
Kyle fired the energy bolts he had stored behind his back at me.
“I was waiting for you!”
Kyle’s voice was full of conviction.
The conviction that he could defeat me-.
However,
I easily broke down the trump card that Kyle had used.
“Designate.”
I switched places with one of Kyle’s energy bolts again.
“Move.”
Thud, thud.
The energy bolts that passed me by made a pitiful sound as they hit the floor.
“How can you use Teleportation in succession……?”
Kyle\'s eyes wavered as if he were bewildered.
Darkness enveloped him.
"Just faint for a moment."
"Wha...?!"
The darkness I created.
An oval-shaped space made of dark energy surrounded Kyle and me.
"What are you doing..."
Kyle muttered in a bewildered voice, but he couldn\'t finish his sentence.
Thud.
It was because I lightly hit Kyle\'s neck and knocked him out.
