'He can do it …' Before the students could rejoice, the blood-red demon viciously swung its other arm and slammed it down.
* Bam!! *
There was the sound of a heavy hammer hitting the ground, and the entire basketball court seemed to tremble.
If this hit hit someone, that person would definitely be flattened into a meat patty!
Fortunately, Harano and Seigo dodged it.
No one saw how he moved. They only saw his figure flash, and he retreated seven or eight steps away.
The blood-red demon's arm that had a hole in it rapidly recovered. Then, it swung its two large hands at the youth!
The students saw Harano and Seigo continuously dodge. Although he wasn't hit, he had a serious expression. It was evident that the demon he was facing was a difficult one for him to handle.
As a human, Harano and Seigo were tall. However, in front of a two-story tall demon, the difference was like the difference between a child and an adult.
The students couldn't help but feel even more terrified when they imagined facing such a demon up close. At the same time, they admired Harano and Seigo's courage.
'Do your best!!'
They hoped that the demon dragon could successfully slay the demon. This was also for their own good.
After a series of attacks, the blood-red demon's movements slowed down slightly.
At this moment, Harano and Seigo lowered their bodies and charged forward. They instantly arrived in front of the demon and punched out at lightning speed!
* Boom boom boom boom … *
The students heard four explosions and saw four large holes appear in the demon's body.
'So powerful …' They exclaimed inwardly.
However, the blood-red mist surged, and the demon rapidly recovered. It moved its arm, and with a whoosh, it shot out a large number of blood-red balls!!
Harano and Seigo did their best to dodge, but they were still hit and sent flying backwards!
The students instantly tensed up. However, they immediately saw him flip over and land on the ground. He slid a little before stabilizing himself.
He didn't seem to be injured … did he use some sort of protective technique?
Nobody doubted the power of the blood-red balls, because there were many small holes in the ground! If those things hit a human body, they would definitely leave bloody holes.
The demon waved its other arm and shot out a large number of blood-red balls again!
Harano and Seigo leaped and dodged, narrowly avoiding this wave of attacks.
The transformed Great Demon continued to attack ferociously!
The youth kept dodging and sometimes found the right time to launch a counterattack!
The fierce battle between demons and humans was like a scene from an anime, but it had a grandeur that far exceeded that of an anime.
The onlookers were under immense pressure that the battle could affect them at any time. Not to mention anything else, just being hit by a single blood-red ball would cause serious injuries!
Fortunately, the Mystic Dragon deliberately led the Great Demons away from the crowd. Even so, some of the blood-red balls were shot three to four meters away from the crowd, scaring the people standing in front of them.
Some students tried their best to overcome their fear, moving their bodies to escape the scene. However, most of them were still frozen in place, unable to do anything other than watch the battle unfold.
Whoosh — The Great Demon suddenly released a thick blood mist!
The temperature of the venue dropped again! No one knew what would happen if they were shrouded in the mist, but it was clear that they would suffer terrible damage. Perhaps they would be completely melted!?
Faced with this unavoidable attack, Harano and Seigo roared loudly as their bodies suddenly glowed with a golden light. Then, they were swallowed by the blood mist.
All the students were extremely nervous upon seeing this!
The next instant, boom boom boom boom boom … there was a series of explosions as the Great Demon's body was instantly smashed to pieces!
"Gagagagaga —"
Everyone heard a strange, ear-piercing sound. It was obviously the demon's scream.
Its body reformed, but it was smashed to pieces again, releasing even more blood mist that spread in all directions.
This was the final moment!
Seeing the blood mist approaching, everyone realized that either Harano and Seigo would defeat this demon, or the demon would devour everyone here!!
The Mystic Dragon … the Mystic Devouring Dragon, you're going to win!!
The students shouted in their minds.
This thought seemed to be conveyed. The sounds of attacks became even louder, and the strange, sharp sound weakened.
And then … boom!!!
There was an ear-deafening explosion as the blood-red mist suddenly exploded!
Everyone screamed and fell to the ground like dominoes as they felt a strong gust of wind.
The students who fell to the ground moaned in pain. Then, they felt the temperature rise again, the sunlight became brighter, and the chill disappeared … the atmosphere returned to normal!
The boy with the video camera from before crawled up and saw that Harano and Seigo had torn off his tattered shirt.
His handsome face and strong body were left with bloodstains, and fresh blood flowed out. He used the tattered shirt in his hand to wipe his wound.
The Mystic Dragon's injuries, as well as the marks left on the football field, proved that what just happened wasn't an illusion.
"Harano … are you alright?" someone asked weakly.
However, Harano and Seigo acted as if they didn't hear him at all. He silently left with his tattered shirt that was dyed red.
Everyone watched him leave. There was a moment of silence. Nobody said a word.
…
As the demon exorcism incident spread like wildfire, the school announced that all football matches would be paused and that all students would gather in the auditorium! The student council president had something important to say.
Wanhua Summer Night's explanation … Everyone was curious as to what this Grand Mistress, Harano and Seigo's girlfriend, would say.
"I think that she's threatening us to pretend that we don't know anything about this incident," a student suggested a conspiracy theory.
"Then do you dare to not go?"
"…"
Even if they were afraid of the student council president's "explanation," nobody dared to not go.
After all, they were all ordinary commoners. Only the heavens knew what sort of revenge they would receive if they angered the daughter of a rich family.
Demons and Spiritual Ability users truly existed. However, the public didn't know about this, which meant that there was a tremendous power hiding the truth!
If they tried to expose the truth, it was highly likely that they would meet a terrible end.
Wasn't it common in television dramas and movies where reporters who wanted to expose the dark truth would be horribly persecuted and have their families destroyed?
Everyone believed that the person who exposed the truth was a hero. But, who wanted to be such a hero? Who had the resolve to be such a hero?
This was a question that caused everyone to fall silent.
No matter what the students thought, Summer Night had to do the same thing.
She stood on the stage in the auditorium and waited.
People arrived one after another and gathered in the auditorium.
She silently watched as everyone stood in position. When it was time, she spoke into the microphone that had been set up.
"Good morning, students.
No matter whether you see it or not, no matter whether you know or not, please listen carefully to what I'm about to say, "Summer Night spoke in an incredibly serious tone.
"There are hidden dangers in the world, and they're likely to become more and more dangerous. There's a lot of information currently proving this.
"Someone is secretly dealing with these dangers in order to protect everyone studying here. This is all because he's a fellow student of this school.
"Due to a certain rule, he can't reveal his identity … As long as you all keep this a secret and delete all records related to this incident, and don't spread it or casually discuss it, he'll be able to stay here and study. Otherwise, he'll be forced to leave very soon.
"At that time, I'll leave together with him. As for who will protect this school in the future, we don't know, and we won't care.
"What you want to do is up to you all. You'll be responsible for the consequences.
"That's all. I apologize for taking up everyone's time."
After saying what needed to be said, President Grand Mistress turned around and left without a trace.
The auditorium fell silent for a moment before a commotion broke out.
Was it really just a simple explanation …?
This extremely brief explanation only spoke of one thing.
If they kept this a secret, Harano and Seigo would be able to stay here. Otherwise, he would have to leave this school, and Wanhua Summer Night would have to leave together with him.
After they left, who would protect Yuen Hwa Secondary … which Spiritual Ability user would deal with the demons that appeared here? The students didn't know, nor did they care.
'Is this … actually a threat?'
The students couldn't help but think this.
But when they thought about it carefully, this was only human nature.
