The announcement on the board has been made. Lettice was ranked first and Dallas was ranked second.
Meanwhile Star placed thirty and Durrel was thirty-one. There were no disappointed faces between the two of them, both of them were equally satisfied with the results given by the teacher. The two of them clapped their hands together, as they were being engrossed in looking at the student rankings, explosions rang out on the front page of the academy.
All the students ran to see the source of the explosion, there was a large hole in the ground. The black-robed person threw a blue-colored ball at the disciple. The disciples fought back with magic, the visible collision made the surrounding area shattered.
The teacher also intervened to defeat the cloaked man, one of them shouting. "Give me that magic ball, it's on us!"
The headmaster intervened, it turned out that the attack was not only in the academy but in the entire territory of the kingdom, the King was now commissioning warriors to hunt down the cloaked man.
Star currently separated herself with the three of them. He ran after that one cloaked member, all the way to the magic equipment room. The door was locked by ten layers of magic, the person took out an hourglass-like object and broke it. He opened the door walking towards the glass box right in front.
When he was about to hold the box his hand was like electrocuted, it turned out that there was still magic installed in the box. He tries to break his magic, but the magic he's trying to break is Star's.
"The thief got in!" Star stood in front of the entrance.
"Who? Boy you better not be here or your life won't be long!" Said the cloaked man.
"Bas stupid, you've gone into the trap, you know!" Star pointed down.
The person lowered his gaze looking down at his feet, it turned out that an explosive magic circle had been installed below, that person could not move until the moment he was about to shout. BTUP! His crushed legs made him fall down and crawl to grab Star's feet.
"Akh, you're sick!" When his hand will reach Star's feet, TAK! Star stepped on the man's hand.
Star squatted down by still stepping on the hands of the robed person, she asked one thing.
"What are your intentions?"
"You think we're gonna tell you!"
"I asked again, what are your intentions!"
"Redirect public attention to focus on this attack."
" Directing from what?"
"We take the sword of leadership from the King."
"Hmmm .. I understand, then stay here, yes!"
"What's? Why did I answer the question?"
Star ran by jumping from one roof to another, using anti-gravity magic. Star also had Lettice confine the robed men in the academy, while Star took care of those in the local capital and village.
Anti-gravity magic: makes the body light and can jump high, although gravity is still bound but only a small part.
Star was following a group of people, whereas Lettice was currently fighting at least thirty robed people. Lettice punched the ground until it split open making the cloaked man enter it, the ground closed back after they were all left.
"I haven't used my abilities in a long time." Lettice did the same until the cloaked person was swallowed to the ground.
Everything is resolved, things are starting to improve. Although the academy looked chaotic, the students were happy to defeat the robed, although most were defeated by Lettice with two attacks.
Star had managed to capture one of the robed men, and slaughtered all of them like a small mountain pile. The king riding with the soldiers saw Star dragging people.
"Son, who are you carrying?"
Star said nothing, he just told the King to return to the kingdom and let himself take care of the troublemakers here. The king left immediately after Star told him to.
The King cannot refuse Star's orders, it is useless to refuse in the end the King's body will move itself like an indisputable order. All gathered in the throne room, the King sat on his throne with the higher-ups attending on the King's orders.
Star pointed out the person, in a firm tone she said to all of them.
"He's the leader of the cloaked group, so you can calm down for the matter."
Hearing that everything was relieved, the perpetrator had been arrested. Soon he was taken to a dungeon to stand trial later. Lettice, Dallas and Durrel return home after helping to clean up the mess at the academy.
"You're home." King Agey welcomed his two children.
Camelia hugged Dallas, Durrel just kept quiet. She was thinking when she could get a hug from her family, there was no way it would happen especially now that she was only ranked far away from her brother.
"From Durrel, why are you quiet?" Camelia reached out her hand at Durrel
"No mom, I don't deserve your hug. Moreover, your son only gets a small grade." Durrel shook his head.
"I'm sorry mom, you must have tried so hard. Mom behaved so that you could be a tough and nice kid, but it seems to make you think of something else instead. It's the wrong attitude, I'm afraid of losing you, I want you to understand and care for each other." Camelia hugged Durrel.
"Sorry mom, I think you only love your sister. I don't have the talent of a big brother and I'm not as strong as a big brother."
"Mother is sorry too."
"What a heartwarming family meeting, huh?" Lettice rubbed her nose.
"Yes, can we talk in the room. Just three!" request Star.
"Alright, then follow me!" The king showed me his office.
So messy, the paper scattered with books does not fit the place. The room that has not been cleaned makes Star more dizzy to see it.
"How many times to clean this room, it looks like an unkempt room." Star sat on the long sofa with Lettice.
"There was no time to clean it up, sometimes my wife tidied it up, even though it was hard to find the file and it ended up not getting right anymore."
"Lettice, can you fix this!" Star Command.
"okay." Lettice used her magic, a red light floating in the air and floated all over the objects, then placed them where they should be.
Now that the room was tidy, the three of them continued the conversation back. The king frowned at Lettice's beautiful magic, this was not the magic he had ever seen.
"I think there's something strange, so it needs to be said ...." Star explained his strangeness.
"Middle of the night."
"You're the right time to do the theft." The king thought Star's words had a point, too.
The night they were waiting for had arrived, the guards in the kingdom had not increased. There was no strange sign the guards were experiencing, all of them were keeping watch around the storage area.
"Finally, this thing is mine!" Someone's trying to take that thing.
"Aha, I've guessed. You're gonna come here!" Star caught the guy.
"It's true, I didn't expect this to happen." The king was behind Star.
"How can you be here. Ckc ... " The man panicked.
"Obviously, that was just a diversion" Star said.
The person cast a spell, black smoke appeared blocking the room to the point of being invisible.
"This magic will blow up the room. At that time I'll run away to take this thing." The man laughed wickedly.
"It's not that easy as a thief. Look above you!" Star pointed upwards.
"What, Na ... Black dragon. How is it here."
"Thank you for letting out this mist, so they won't be able to see the Dragon and you'll be alone."
Lettice has turned her into a dragon. Can't be whole and must use dimensional spells to make part of Lettice's body fit. Just staring at the head alone had made that person fall down in fear.
Star used skill skills to make ropes and tie the person. He was taken to the room where everyone in the kingdom saw him.
The soldier opened the man's robe, not expecting it to turn out that he was a confidant of King—Earl who was the mastermind of all these events.
"I didn't expect you to do this!" The king was upset to see the Earl.
"Hahaha .. I got caught, now what do you do. Even though I am one step away from my goal, my role has also been perfect. That kid is creepy." The Earl laughed out loud.
"What's wrong with his mind?" King Agey was astonished to see the Earl.
"I'm also quite surprised to see the subordinates of the Demon King being here" Star said.
"Demon king? " Everyone is worried.
"Great, you can guess me. Son, I admit you're dangerous. So what if your house, floating like a cloud, is attacked by us?"
"Hey, your house will be attacked!" Lettice has returned to human form.
"Oh, no panic or anxiety. That stiff expression really sucks."
"What's your goal?" ask King Agey.
"Destination? Sure, I just want the destruction of this kingdom."
"Why?"
"Why? You still asking why? Remember when you destroyed a village called Arela?"
Arela village, it used to be the residence of the Earl. The disease hit the village, the skin plague spread throughout the population, only remaining Earl who was looking for medicinal plants.
When he came home how devastated he saw the whole population being killed and burned. At that time the Earl could not go out running to it, there he would also be killed along with them. The Earl saw King Agey who was still a prince at that time.
The Earl hugged the charred body of his sister and family on fire. Sadness struck his heart that he had no purpose in life, Earl had a skin disease, he did not care about his illness. An extremely strong and dark grudge made the second Demon King come to the Earl.
Offering a covenant, selling his soul, feelings, and thoughts to the Demon Lord, the Earl did not think much more about accepting the offer, for him it was a chance of revenge that would not come twice.
The plan began to be devised by the Earl, destroying the ground containing a lot of negative magic charge, sucking up positive energy in order to detonate, as if exploding purely.
Allowing himself to be the representative of the kingdom to watch over the demon who was pretending to be the King. His plan fails when the disaster is stopped by Star, the Earl will lead the King's army to partially save the nearby village. That way the number of soldiers went down.
The failed plan was then diverted into an attacker periodically in areas that the King would directly handle, so everything would be busy.
It was at that time that the Earl would seize this opportunity to take the leadership sword first, the sword becoming the royal protector making the Earl difficult to harm the royal members due to the protection from the sword.
All his plans were a complete failure, he had guessed the boy would mess things up. What kind of star is he? Earl thought so much about who the kid was?
"I'm sorry, at that time I also felt guilty, I had to obey the previous King's order that was my father." The king felt guilty considering the incident.
"And you can only say sorry, after what was done. Hahaha ... Damn why? What with an apology can you be free from your sins. Angry, angry, their cries echoed so much in my ears. Can they come back to life after you say that?"
The Earl blabbed nonstop, making evil energies gather on him, the Earl's body began to undergo a sudden evolution. It grew to be as big as a kingdom, had buffalo-like horns, a back and steel arms, a thin body of bark.
demon Compulsion, he managed to reach that stage, unlocking the skill of one of the powerful demons.
curse casting: the ability to cast an immortal curse that deliberately produces difficulty for the target.The more hatred one has for your victim, the more severe the curse.
"He's the devil, oy." Lettice.
"This is not the time to be happy, Lettice" Star rewinded her steps.
"Don't run, Star." Lettice pulled the Star's collar.
"Ekh, release! I'm not gonna run away."
"Right, I don't trust you. Stay here protect these people. Let me fight the devil!" Lettice went to change its shape.
"You're already." murmured Star.
