I Became the Demon King of Lust

Chapter 136: Irregular License Exam (23)

As soon as the Lizardman King stood up from the throne, the atmosphere in this throne room changed.

Even the most arrogant young man with the shield could feel the change in the air.

He knew that…even he would be in danger.

But that didn't mean that he hesitated since he still had confidence in his power.

He picked up one of the stones on the ground before suddenly throwing it out at the Lizardman King.

As the stone flew through the air, it suddenly began growing in size.

It eventually reached the size of a boulder as it maintained the same momentum while flying through the air.

With the way that it was flying, it almost seemed like it would crush the Lizardman King.

But before it could hit the Lizardman King, there was a flick of a trident.

The Lizardman King easily smashed the boulder that was flying at him, shattering it to pieces that rained down on the ground.

The young man with the shield didn't keep throwing these rocks at the Lizardman King. He wasn't a fool, he had seen how easy it had been for the Lizardman King to smack down that boulder just now.

If he kept throwing these rocks, it would be him that would run out of stamina.

The ability of the young man with the shield was Size Manipulation.

This was a skill that should have been considered useless because of how much mana it took to use it.

However, this young man came from a rich family.

A rich family that was able to provide as many mana increasing elixirs as he needed so that he could use this ability properly.

So he had no problem throwing more stones at the Lizardman King, but he didn't want to waste the mana.

Instead, the young man turned to the other two and said, "What are you doing? Are you expecting me to do all the work? Get in there already!"

Neither of them moved when they heard this since they knew that it would be dangerous.

But seeing them not doing anything, the young man said, "Do you think that I won't do anything when we get back? If you don't move now, you should think about your families."

Both of them revealed ugly expressions when they heard this.

The reason why they listened and followed this young man in the first place was because…their parents worked for the company that this young man's family owned.

They were both commoners who had come from working class families and there was nothing special for them to rely on.

Even if they had made it into the Irregular License Exam, that didn't mean that they were powerful Irregulars yet.

This young man threatened to get their parents fired and ruin their entire families if they didn't go along with him after learning that their parents worked for his family's company.

Their families would be ruined if that happened since they hadn't become powerful Irregulars yet that could protect them…

So they had no choice but to go.

But the young man with the pompadour still hesitated in moving forward since his powers weren't suited for this.

The power of the young man with the pompadour was called Charge Up.

This was an ability that allowed him to store up energy in his body that he could release in one go at any time. The rate of charging depended on how focused he was on gathering the energy. Read today at NovelFire _emp _y,r.

Just now, he had used the two shots charged in his fists to take down the lizardman guards.

That meant that he only had the charges in his legs and his head left to use.

He wasn't certain that he would be able to take down the Lizardman King with just these and the moment that he ran out of shots, he would be useless.

He wanted to charge up the shots in his fists before doing anything, but it wasn't as if the Lizardman King would give them that chance.

The magical girl knew what he was concerned about, so she said, "I'll do it."

She stepped forward and raised her staff, pointing it at the Lizardman King.

As she did, there was this rotten smell that filled the air.

It smelled just like rotten eggs.

Then with a spark, there was a large explosion that suddenly happened.

This explosion completely engulfed all of the lizardmen and they were engulfed in the flames that came from the explosion, disappearing out of sight.

But even though they were engulfed in flames, the magical girl didn't let her guard down.

She knew that this simple explosion wouldn't be enough to take them all down.

So she gathered balls of strange coloured liquid around her.

The magical girl's ability wasn't actually magic at all. Her ability was Chemistry.

She had the ability to create all kinds of different chemicals with her mana.

This kind of ability would normally be used for production, but she had figured out a way to use it for combat.

That explosion just now was her creating a pocket of sulfur gas in the air around the lizardmen and then igniting it with a spark. Then to prevent the flames of the explosion from spreading, she created a layer of inflammable gas around the area that she wanted the explosion to be in so that it couldn't spread.

This was very precise and it was only because of her determination that she was able to do something like this.

As the magical girl waited for a reaction from the lizardmen, the flames suddenly parted and the Lizardman King came out of the flames.

She wanted to throw these balls of different kinds of acid at the Lizardman King, but she found that she was just…too slow.

The Lizardman King was in front of her in an instant and had its trident raised to stab at her.

"Ah!!!" There was a roar that came from behind her as she suddenly felt something push her out of the way.

Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw the young man with the pompadour charging past her.

The young man with the pompadour had charged forward without hesitation when he saw that she was in danger. As he charged at the Lizardman King, he started bringing the head that he had leaned back in preparation at the Lizardman King.

He was going in for a headbutt.

This was his ultimate move and he was using it without hesitation to save the magical girl.

This headbutt was an attack that he had never used.

This headbutt was the culmination of several months of gathering energy, so even he didn't know how strong this attack would be. But to save her, he didn't hesitate to release it.

He wasn't even sure if he would be able to endure it, but he didn't care when he saw that she was in danger.

The Lizardman King seemed to have sensed something, so it quickly turned the trident in its hands so that the shaft was facing the young man with the pompadour.

As soon as it did this, there was a barrier of water that appeared in front of the Lizardman King.

The young man with the pompadour was surprised, but he didn't stop himself.

He just hoped that it would be strong enough to take down the Lizardman King or else…they would be done for.

So his head clashed with the barrier of water.
