Chapter 3 (1/2)

Demon

“……Dark Magician?”

What is this occupation. It’s not as though I know all of the occupations but, this is the first time I’ve heard of it. Furthermore, what ‘Magician’? Even though It’s normally just Magician. I somewhat know how to use dark magic though.

U~n……well, whatever. It’s fine to think about it later. There’s a still a line behind so I’ll quickly move away. Since I still can’t meet Lig and Stella who have received those amazing occupations I’ll return to the horse wagon first.

I bowed to the priest and was about to move off. Just as I was about head towards the exit, my left hand was firmly grabbed by someone. I got startled and look back, the one who grabbed my hand was the priest.

I don’t know his expression since he was looking down but, he seems to be muttering about something. I was a little bit frightened by that.

“Er, erm, Priest-san? Wh, what is wrong?”

I decided to try looking at the priest’s expression so I slightly squatted down to take a look and, I fell on my backside because of the shock.

The reason being, the priest’s face was distorted with an overwhelming anger.

Then, the priest with his gaze filled with so much anger that it makes me think ‘Isn’t his gaze enough to murder me’, pointed at me and shout.

“Knights! Arrest this guy! Arrest this possessor of the occupation『Dark Magician』, the demon who opposes the G.o.ddess! ”

The moment the priest shouted, all the knights without knowing anything simultaneously look over at me. The gazes, dyed in the colour of rage are the same as what the priest had.

I felt from the bottom of my heart that I have to escape. I will undoubtedly be killed if I’m caught here. But, my body unlike my heart won’t move. My body has frozen from the wrath pouring on to me from the surrounding.

And when I realized it I was blown away. Followed by a pain in the stomach. I don’t know what was done to me but, my stomach was in extreme pain. I could do nothing but crouch over from the excessive pain. When I was stunned, it felt like something coiled around my body. Because of that, I became unable to move.

When I somehow raise my face, the sight of Stella reaching her hands out to me was visible. But she was prevented from moving forward by the knight and the poshly dressed guy.

An extreme impact run through my head at that moment. The front of my eyes became blurry, the last thing I saw was the figure of Stella shouting.

……Already, how many days have pa.s.sed. Inside the dark room, the sense of time goes haywire in here where the sunlight doesn’t enter. After getting locked in here, the whole time, I got beaten up, my nails were peeled off, somewhere on my body was burned. My heart is already at its limit.
