Chapter 5 - chapter 5: the birth of a new demon.

[in the meantime]

Aldric, running down the hallway heading to the library, he feels something bad happening there.

Aldric:(what in the world is happening?! How did this kind of power get inside the library? I'm sure Lona and the others are there, I need to go and help them).

Aldric reached the library, And he forced the door open, The scene he saw was a nightmare. Bookshelves were falling to the floor and one of them fell on Arnold and Cohly, who was trying to heal Arnold and strengthen Lona who was facing a creature with black scales all over its body and two large horns on its head that was emitting a dark energy that made the air in the library heavy, seeing how injured Lona is, aldric couldn't control his nerves, He Pounced on that creature while covering himself with his golden aura.

Aldric: STAY AWAY FROM HER YOU MONSTER!!!

aldric swung his sword to strike the creature's chest, but the strange being stopped the attack with one hand, unbelievable shock appeared on aldric's face, while the strange creature had an evil smirk on its face.

Aldric:(what the hell is going on?! He just grabbed my sowrd like it was nothing).

????: how cute, you trying to protect your friends, crushing every hope for you will be a great pleasure.

Lona: aldric run, this thing is more powerful than us, we can't handle it.

Kalan: THING?!! how dare you call me a thing?! I'm the great demon lord kalan, you should bow when you see me.

Kalan kicks Lona, causing her to hit the wall and faint, he turned to face aldric who was in complete shock, A sly smile spread across kalan's face.

Kalan: now, let's see what you've got human.

[In the mean time]

Principal Thorne panicked from the answer he heard from John, Trying desperately to free the young man's grip from his neck, but to no avail.

Principal Thorne: wh... what do you mean by that?!

John who still had the same evil smile and glowing red eyes answered the question with a malicious look on his face.

John: it's simple really, I will stop that thing before it takes All over the academy, and keep the contracts between you and the noble families a secret, in return All the powers you have as the director of the academy will become mine.

Principal Thorne: I.....I...I don't know what you're talking about!!

John: ooh principal, do you really think you're in a position to lie to me me?

John tightens his grip on the principal's neck, principal Thorne started to scream from the pain.

Principal Thorne: AAARRRGGHH!! Okay okay, I agree to your deal.

John lets go of his grip from the principal's neck, causing him to fall to the ground. John started walking calmly but he stops and give the principal Thorne a scary look from the side of his eye.

John: go and wait for me in your office, and If you try to run away. I'll know.

Principal Thorne: ye..yes I understand that.

John started walking towards the library With confident steps.

In the library, kalan Hit aldric to the library Wall, causing him to lay on the ground, aldric who raised his head Saw Lona injured, and all of her body bleeding, Arnold, still stuck under the bookshelf, can't dodge any attack coming towards him, cohly started bleeding from overusing the mana Which caused her to bleed from her mouth, eyes and ears, kanal began walking to Lona calmly knowing that these kids are no match for him.

Kalan: that was refreshing, I can't believe how weak you humans are, even the dragon slim in dragon kingdom is stronger than you, now I'm going to eat all of you and I'll start with this brave girl with the sowrd, but first I think I'll enjoy myself a little.

Aldric who's laying on the ground raising his head, couldn't believe what he just heard, he can't even move a finger to help his friends.

Aldric:(no, it can't end like this, there must be something I can do, but I'm not strong enough, I can't even stand up, is this really the end of everything?).

kalan stood in front of Lona, licking his upper lip.

In that moment, The sound of the door being forced open and the shockwave of mana spreading through the room stopped everyone in their tracks, the air became heavy with every step from him, kalan turns his head to see where all this mana is coming from, but he was surprised by seeing a guy with black hair and glowing red eyes walking comfortably towards him.

Kalan:(did that shockwave come from him? But he's just a human, I can take care of him then I'll finish my work with this girl).

Kalan started walking towards John, They met face to face in the middle of the library, only a few inches apart, the both of them are covered With pure evil mana, John who was a little shorter than kalan smirked at him With a look of mockery on his face, aldric, Lona, Arnold, and cohly, All of them opened their mouths in a complete shock of what they saw.

Aldric:(impossible!! The shockwave I just felt did it come from him?! But even John can't win alone against this monster) JOHN!! RUN AWAY HE'S MORE POWERFUL THAN US!!!.

Lona: John just leave, your not match for something like that.

John ignored their warnings, still smirking at kalan.

John: pfftt, You're much uglier than I thought.

Kalan lost his temper when he heard those words, He let out a demonic roar at John's face, John didn't give any reaction he just simply smiled.

John: oh? Did my words hurts your feelings? How about we shake hands as sorry for my mistake.

John extended his hand, waiting for kalan to extend his hand too.

Kalan:(this kid is so dumb, the moment I grip his hand I will rip it off his body) fine.

Kalan extended his hand to John hand.

John: tsk, you really are dumb.

The moment their hands touched each other, John ripped off kalan's hand entirely, from the hand to the shoulder, kalan fell on the ground and started screaming from the pain, while the others in the library couldn't believe how John managed to do such a thing.

Kalan: AAAARRRRGGGHHH, YOU LITTLE BASTARD!!!

Aldric:(what??!!!).

Lona:(how did he manage to do it?!!).

Arnold:(impossible!!!).

Cohly:(is this even real?!!).

A big demonic smile appears on John's face, as he threw the arm in front of kalan.

John: I knew you were weak, but you're even weaker than I thought.

John leaned over and began to whisper in kalan's ear.

John: I think you should go back to your old job cleaning shoes, worm.

Kalan started to crash out upon hearing those words from John, letting out a demonic roar causing the library to shake violently, Then out of nowhere, tentacles emerge from where his arm was torn, In an instant, the tentacles form into an arm, kalan stood up in front of John, His aura is darker and denser than before, John who's smirking at kalan started talking In a sarcastic tone.

John: did my words hurt your feelings? Don't worry you can always clean my shoes.....

Before he finishe his word, kalan lands a quick, hard punch to John's face, causing the air in the library to fill with dust, aldric couldn't believe his eyes, he knew John would've dodged it If he wanted to, With a voice full of sadness and anger he punched the ground.

Aldric: JOHN NOOOO!!! Just why?! Why didn't you dodge it?!

In the dust, everyone thought that John has died, even kalan thought the same, but as the dust began to settle, kalan opened his eyes in shock of the thing he Saw, as the others vision began to clear They could do nothing but open their mouths in shock at the sight they saw at that moment, John standing there, and kalan's fist still in his face, the punch that kalan landed to him just moved his face a little, causing no damage to John, a little smirk appears on John's face as he prepares his fist to return the punch.

John: cute punch, now it's my turn.

John clenched his fist and in less than a second the blow had already landed on kalan's face, sending him crashing into the wall, Everyone in the library was shocked when they looked at John smiling with red mana eyes. A hint of fear appeared on their shocked faces, kalan who was pinned to the wall by the force of John's punch began thinking about using everything he has to kill that kid with the black hair.

Kalan:(If I keep getting hit like this he'll get the upper hand... I got it, I'll take him to the sky He will be powerless, after all he's just a human)

Kalan pushes himself out of the wall and then, strangely, two leather wings began to grow on his back. With a quick movement, he lunges at John and grabs him by the shirt. Kalan smashes through the ceiling and soars into the sky, he stops in the middle of the sky smirking at John who didn't react to what just happened.

Kalan: Hahahahahaha, You humans have always been at the bottom of the hierarchy, you don't have the ability to harness mana like elves, you don't have the raw strength of beasts or even half-beasts, you're not even close to the level of the higher races, so human tell me how do you plan to survive this situation now?

From a far and from her room window she saw the demon holding a Guy with him in the sky, after taking a closer look she immediately recognized who is that guy.

Magalie: huh? Is that John?!

In the sky where kalan and John were, John began laughing hysterically.

John: pfft, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHA.

Kalan had a surprised, shocked look on his face as he see the human laugh in his hand.

Kalan: what's wrong?! Did you get too scared so you Lost your mind?!

A dark red aura began surrounding John's body while his eyes glowed with red mana light, a confident smile forming on his lips.

John: I think you're mistaken, I'm not the one who's in trouble in fighting in the sky . . . It's you.

Suddenly, John grabs Kalan's jaw and pushes him away with the mana surrounding his body, from afar magalie smirks as she see John fighting back the demon in the academy sky.

Magalie: well well well Mr. Shon, I think it's not a coincidence to see you fighting a demon by yourself, heh you'll pay for that time you humiliated me.

In the meantime the battle between John and kalan had started, as the fight started kalan tried to throw some Hits, but dodging it was a piece of cake for John, in the library, aldric tries to follow them with his eyes, but all he can see are two mana trails following these two monsters, the sky of the academy Filled with John's devilish laughter and Kalan's angry screams.

In the sky while they fighting with their hands kalan tried to figure out a way to stop this human from attacking him.

Kalan:(damnit!! If I don't think of something he will destroy me, I can't handle another direct hit from him).

Kalan looks at a building full of students and began smiling, he might have the only thing that can stop the human in front of him.

Kalan:(that building seems full of humans, of course someone as noble as him wouldn't let that much of His kind die).

In the middle of the fight, kalan sent a disc of black energy quickly towards John. John easily dodges it but notices that it is heading towards the scholarship student dormitory. Kalan waits for John to go and stop it, but in a moment, kalan finds that John has moved in front of him. With a precise strike, John impales kalan's chest with his bare hand and grabs his heart, kalan freeze from the shock, while John starts smiling.

Kalan:"cough" "cough" Why . . . Why didn't you save the humans?! Aren't you . ."cough" one of them?

John: oh I'm not fighting you because I want to protect them, I'm fighting you because I'm the only one who's allowed to destroy this place, and nobody else.

[In the meantime]

On the roof of the scholarship student dormitory, Elesa sat in her cat form, watching the dark energy disc heading towards the building she's sitting on, and she doesn't seem to care about anything like that.

Elesa:"sigh" my master gets all the fun while I'm stuck here protecting this dead building, if he just told me, I would make that little brat who calls himself the demon lord remember what he used to be.

As the dark energy disc came closer to her, elesa moved her fluffy palm to make the disc disappear as if it never existed, kalan watched that just a kitten stopped his attack, coughing blood with a scared look on his demonic face.

Kalan:"cough" who . . . "cough" "cough" who are you?!

John:I am the monster that was Born from hate but you can call me "the revenger".

John crushes kalan's heart, then takes him back to the library, kalan, still struggling looking at Lona who was sitting beside cohly and Arnold, kalan offered All what they want if they helped him.

Kalan:"cough" "cough" you kids if you help me I can give you the power the money, everything you want but just help me.

John walks over to Aldric, who is leaning his back against a fallen bookshelf to barrow aldric's sowrd.

John: sorry aldric, but I'll take your sowrd for a moment.

Aldric gave the sowrd to John without asking, as he walked calmly to the demon who begged the people he beat to save his life, A sight that would disgust anyone, kalan Lying on the ground trying to crawl painfully slow, he turns around, a scared look on his face as a reflection of faceless John with glowing demonic eyes raising his hand with the sword, All what takes is one strike and it's done.
