Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 415

Chapter 415 94.3 - Not every negative thing is negative

The moment he realized that the academy was planning to trap them, everything made sense. But, it was still not the time to think about all those things. After all, in a way, he was running for his life there.

He knew he needed to get out of there quickly since staying here only meant Death, and that wasn't something that he could accept no matter what.

He had a map of the academy and its bird's-eye view, so he had a general idea of which direction to run in to leave the academy grounds.

WOOSH! He began to run, his breaths coming in ragged gasps as he sprinted through the forest.

After all, the amount of mana he had spent while fighting against the professors and the little energy that was left inside him was not enough to coat himself with mana completely.

He also spent quite a bit of mana while activating the artifact, which made it worse. Adding to the injuries he had sustained, it was evident that he would have a hard time.

The slight darkness resulting from the thick foliage made it difficult to navigate, but he pressed on, driven by desperation and the need to escape.

SHIVER! Suddenly, he sensed someone's presence. A bloodthirstiness that made his body quiver from the pressure and the 'intent.'

'What? Is there a monster here?'

The pressure was so much, and the bloodthirstiness was so crazy that he couldn't help but remember that one time when he was a hunter, he faced a boss.

This level of bloodthirstiness was comparable to that.

The world seemed to slow down around him, his senses heightened by the imminent danger. His superhuman senses and intuition parameters that he had honed after years of fighting when he was a child made this possible.

'Too fast.' Despite this, he couldn't react completely in time. The speed of the attacker was much higher than his own.

CRACK! In an instant, he deployed a quick barrier of mana, which lacked depth and good formation.

The barrier managed to block some of the impact, but the force behind the attack was overwhelming.

CRASH! He was sent flying back, crashing through the underbrush and slamming into a tree.

And he was not alone. The other two students that he was carrying on his shoulders also flew up in the sky, each hitting a tree and stopping.

Pain coursed through his body, but he forced himself to stand, groaning in agony. He looked up to see his attacker emerge from the shadows—a figure with long purple hair cascading down to her shoulders.

A figure that looked young, most likely an academy student.

But something was different about that figure.

What was it?

'Those eyes. What the hell?'

Blood-red pupils filled with madness. Symbolizing the bloodthirstiness.

'Fangs?'

And two fangs directly seeping through the mouth.

'That expression.'

The face that would normally pass as beautiful was now contorted. It looked eerie and dangerous.

"Grr….."

Bill's eyes widened in realization. This was no ordinary student. This was a monster, a result of the corruption seeds they had been spreading. But could such a strong monster be created just by those seeds?

Before he could answer that question, the monstrous girl disappeared from his vision. He spread his senses to detect her presence, but his senses picked up nothing.

'Is she gone?'

He thought inwardly that the danger had finally passed.

"What the hell was that girl?"

Leaning against the tree, he released a hearty breath.

But the moment he did that, his eyes met with two crimson spheres.

'!' His body turned cold, his blood stopping. The girl hadn't left; she was just right on top of him.

The monstrous girl's fangs gleamed in the dim light, and before he could react, she lunged at him with terrifying speed. He tried to raise his arms to block her, but she was too fast. Her fangs sank into his shoulder, and he screamed in pain.

Bill struggled, trying to push her off, but her grip was like iron. The pain was excruciating, and he felt his strength draining away as she fed on him.

"Gulp."

He did his best to use the demonic energy in his demonic core, which was recently integrated into him. Though the power was hard to use and it went berserk often, he knew he didn't have a chance.

'But why?'

However, it didn't work at all. The energy wasn't responding to his calls.

No, it was rather about to go berserk. The situation was too dire for him.

'COME YOU FUCKING ENERGY! WHY ARE YOU NOT WORKING!'

He wanted to shout with anger, but even mustering the strength to move his mouth felt like a chore.

His vision blurred, and he knew he had to act fast if he wanted to survive. However, he couldn't use the demonic energy.

Thankfully, because his core wasn't completely integrated into his body, he was still able to use normal mana like other humans, but it was limited to non-delicate type. His connection to normal mana was corrupted, making it a lot harder to control.

Yet, if it was a primal way of using it.

He could do it.

With a desperate burst of energy, he summoned all the mana he could muster and blasted her with a shockwave.

"Grr….."

The force threw her off him, and she landed a few feet away, hissing in anger. freewēbnoveℓ.com

His body was shaking in fear. For the first time in a while, he was feeling such a thing. Even while facing the professors, he hadn't felt like the death was this close.

"Haaaaah….Haaaah….Haaaaah…."

It was as if something was suppressing him initially. Inherently, he was against a superior being from the start.
