85  Chapter 85 - Alexios Dilemma (2)

"Archmage Adriannel!"

Alexios gasped in surprise though he had been unaware of the presence of an archmage until his transformation into a demon.

In the demon realm, everyone revered the strongest Archdemon, Evangeline, she was a living legend, her name echoing through the realm and enshrined in countless scriptures.

Her story was one of solitary conquest, where she single-handedly crushed the Saint realm and the Human realm.

In the eyes of the demon realm, only this archmage's betrayal had prevented her from achieving ultimate domination.

However, Alexios was no fool.

He knew that communities often tailored their narratives to suit their interests, so he was skeptical.

Even if there had been a betrayal, he was sure that Evangeline wasn't just any ordinary person to be just die through betrayal of some weak person.

He began his research and, through the guidance of the Present Demon Queen, Amrantha Tenebri, he uncovered the hidden truth.

Only longest-lived beings held knowledge of this hidden reality — Archmage Riannel had sealed his wife and was reborn multiple times to maintain the seal. From this information, Alexios deduced that a reincarnation of the archmage must still exist in the human realm.

After painstakingly searching through the names of powerful individuals, he finally found a name that stood out: Adriannel Riantain.

It was as clear as day that he had discovered the Archmage himself due to this name being very similar as archmage himself with minor changes like addition of Ad at the beginning of riannel.

Infront of him stood the living legend, 'I can only hold him off for three minutes' with this thought in mind Alexios calculated the interval in time will be enough for him to escape using an artifact.

He noticed Adriannel looking towards him with his cold crimson eyes.

WHOOSH

Suddenly, a massive white orb materialized in the sky.

Adriannel's hands lifted, and an unseen force started to compress the already dense mana into a smaller form at a visible pace.

The large orb steadily shrank until it resembled a mere ball, which Adriannel then clenched with tremendous strength, making it seem as though the orb had vanished into his fist.

But Alexios could still sense the super-dense, pure mana contained within his hands before he saw Adriannel's flickering his finger as a small white light orb left his hands.

DRIP

It was as if a single drop of water, a white droplet, had fallen to the ground.

'Shit'

Alexios's eyes widened as he covered his entire body in dense demonic energy, preparing for the impending impact. Flames surged from his horns and shrouded him in a fiery ball.

BOOM

A massive dome-like white light moved towards them, passing through him and obliterating all the demon elites behind him.

"AaaGgggHhhhh!"

He cried out as his demonic energy rapidly depleted, forcing him to use his demonic seed's Essence.

THUD

As the bright light vanished, all that remained was his battered body on the ground.

'Not even three seconds'

His eyes had returned to emerald, as had his hair color, but a black horn still adorned his head, with a small flickering flame. He can't help, 'Forgive me, sister,' but be prepared to meet his end.

"You remind me of an annoying girl."

Adriannel landed in front of Alexios's broken body and noticed that this demon's features resembled those of an annoying girl.

In the midst of the gruesome battlefield, he casually took out a cigarette and used Alexios's horn as a lighter.

At that moment, Alexios's mind was in turmoil.

'In this life he is a professor at Valeria Academy'

He began to formulate various reasons for this man to call his sister annoying and ultimately came to one conclusion: 'Maybe he has low IQ in this life or else why he will find my cute sister Annoying' "Oh, it enhanced the taste; I'd better take it."

CRACK!

Alexios felt as if he had lost more than half of his demonic energy as he reached for his head, only to find nothing.

When he looked up, he saw his horn in Adriannel's hands before he casually put it in his pocket.

"What are you looking at, boy? Go back to your home."

Adriannel turned and flew away, leaving Alexios bewildered and frustrated.

'I knew it, his IQ is really low or else why he took my horn and use it as lighter, is he really an archmage?' Alexios wondered, doubting the authenticity of Adriannel, But he decided to leave the area before any reinforcements from the Order arrived.

However, he couldn't help but notice something unusual: the body of the ⟨Obsidian Knight⟩ had disintegrated into small particles.

As he observed this, his mind started to grasp the hidden meaning behind Adriannel's actions.

'I better not get involved in this mess,' Alexios decided. He chose to focus on protecting his sister.

As without the horn, he couldn't return to the demon realm or contact the Demon Queen, who had given him six months to complete his mission.

Unbeknownst to his departure, a figure ascended into the air, observing everything.

An ethereal body of an old man stood beside him, slightly translucent. The old man noticed it all and asked, [ Do you think helping this boy was worth it? ]

Adriannel gazed in that direction and replied, 'They are children, after all, unaware of the fate that awaits this world. I can only ensure their survival until I am reborn again'

He looked toward the sky with blank eyes before his figure vanished, leaving behind many questions and an assurance: as long as he was alive, no harm would befall the human realm.

After some days,

'Finally, my strength has recovered, not like before but enough to protect my sister'

Alexios came out of a cave and looked towards a certain direction as his figure vanished, moving quickly towards the Valeria Academy.

He waited for nightfall to infiltrate the academy premises, unaware that two crimson eyes were watching him.

He entered the boundaries as the sun set.

Alexios' POV

'Where is Thalia's dormitory?'

I looked around to find my sister's dormitory. After searching many places, I finally found her.

Thalia was talking to a Dariant girl looking at that girl, I recognised her,'Rihane Valhale, who was 18 years old, with a brother named Gleinder Valhale. She was always ranked last, a gossiping girl with the ability to look into people's souls'

Before coming here, I had already investigated Thalia's friend circle and who she interacted with, but I couldn't find him.

I wanted to visit Zephyr Liander as soon as possible to teach him to maintain a suitable distance from my sister.

'Here he is,' I noticed him as he arrived and greeted them both.

'!?'

'Did he just look at me? No, I am sure our eyes met. How? It should be impossible for him to detect me. I don't understand how he knew I was here'

'What the hell! Did he just smirk at me?' 'No!'

'This bastard! He's doing all this intentionally'

How dare he hug my sister like that?

Should I kill him?

'Wait, breaking his bones would be good, or maybe I can just use him to blackmail Duchess Kassidy. After getting Miss Lily, I can kill this bastard.'

I calculated everything and finally came up with the best plan — to get all my work done without breaking a sweat.
