The derandly, and he continued his self-introduction like he was fixated on keeping a cool appearance If he had been on Earth, people would have rolled on the ground, clutching their stoe However, they were on Liber This wasn’t soh off here
‘Demon Empire’ They were one of the fourfor supreh power to deal with the Coalition of native monsters and the Abyss froh skill to be ranked 63 Chi-Woo couldn’t be certain, but it seeure, incomparable to the lich they had met before at least
‘Why is the Deitated Chi-Woo forced hiuesses later He needed to weigh the importance of their current problems, and the matter in front of him took priority Thus, Chi-Woo decided to ask once more
“Did you cause this situation, sir?”
Andras, the owl demon, looked quite offended His pride seemed to have been injured, and his face seemed to say, ‘Even after I revealed my identity, you dare to accuse me of such?’
“…You respond to my question with a question of your own? But since you at least have the basic courtesy of addressing me with respect, and we are in a situation such as this, I will think of this as an infor Chi-Woo a favor before continuing his speech
“If you are asking about the situation of this mysterious world, I’m not the one who caused it” Andras then stated that he had only found the barrier to this world by mere coincidence “When I came, this place was already in this state”
After Andras ripped through the barrier with soued hie rules he had never seen before: hu forhe had never experienced before, the place piqued his curiosity very , and after playing around the area excitedly for some time, he quickly becaer had any playmates to enjoy the fun with Thus, he decided to return It was then he realized…
“I couldn’t go back,” Andras said calmly, “Unlike when I first entered, I couldn’t et through,” Andras spoke like he wasn’t willing to reveal this truth but couldn’t help doing so “It seeet out, and only those from the outside could open the barrier… I must admit it Whoever created the barrier is quite skilled”
Andras licked his lips with his long tongue “Even in the Demon Empire, there is unlikely to bebarrier I really want to see the face of the person who made this” Andras said After a short pause, he added, “Well, if only I hadn’t lost most of my powers as soon as I entered, I could have broken it in an instant” It was as if he didn’t really want to admit all this Anyways, to summarize, it didn’t seem this demon was connected to the current situation at the academy
“But ere you on the roof…?”
“Because there’s a etthe barrier All I have to do is solve this probleh”
Chi-Woo had been listening intently to the dehts
“Perhaps I need more sacrifices”
“…What? What did you just say?”
“Hm? I said sacrifices Sacrifices” Andras very nicely pointed at the pile of corpses at the center of the roof
“Then, regardless of the situation, the reason why the roof ended up like this…”
“Ah, yeah I did that,” Andras immediately admitted, like the fact was entirely trivial “…What’s that look on all of your faces?” Andras tilted his head like he couldn’t understand the expedition team’s reaction “The humans here drew their swords and h I’m not the one who caused this situation, they all ju conclusions Those stupid fools It’s the same for the aliens I can’t even attempt to communicate with them at all, and all they do is rush at me and try to take over ainst those who attacked me first Is that a sin?” Andras asked “Winners have full authority over the losers What’s the proble those who tried to exploithis speech, Andras jerked his chin like he was proled to co in Andras’ words he could refute
“…Well, there were soh”
“…”
“But in the end, I killed theain, while Chi-Woo’s eyes narrowed ‘Ritual’ was a word he didn’t like very much because of the badquietly, Shadia spoke exasperatedly, “You killed all of theht There’s nothingsacrifices when you lack power” Andras see the obvious and let out a long sigh Then, he shrugged at the expedition teah information on my end now” Since he had answered all their questions, it was now their turn to answer
“Let me ask How did you all come here?” Andras waited patiently at first, but after nobody answered, he seemed to reach the end of his patience and deave his voice an edge “For my deal with you, I have faithfully fulfilled as asked of ry outburst, Shadia looked anxiously over her shoulder, ain and quickly opening her mouth
“Don’t you already know?”
“?”
“Didn’t you enter through the same method as us?”
Shadia mixed lies with truth and posed a counter-question to detere
“The sa barrier like er subsided “You did?” His tone dripped with derision before he continued, “…Well, that’s so I can check You all should be prepared if it isn’t true”
Shadia frowned “Check? How?”
And here ca! Simultaneously, there was a muffled sound accoan to scatter light The pile of corpses at the center and others strewn everywhere thu fro upside down, the jet black night sky shi+eometric patterns came into view to fill up the space
Woooo—!
Shadia looked blankly at the air like she couldn’t believe it Meanwhile, Andras screamed in triumph, “Oh! Oh, oh—!”
“I can’t believe it! The passageway is open! Further even I hadn’t ed to do…!” Both his hands trembled and momentarily stopped “But…why? It’s definitely connected to Liber, but why had the power I lost not coeway so specific that it excludesat the barrieris that the passageway is open”
Then, after talking to himself for a while, Andras turned back to the expedition teaood I don’t knohat you did, but that is irate and forcefully break through the barrier after gathering as many sacrifices as I could no matter what happened to the outside, but…”
“W-What? Are you crazy?” Shadia shouted; it seemed she understood exactly what Andras oosebumps for reasons he couldn’t quite explain For a moment, he wondered if La Bella had led hi to do
“It definitely is a crazy thing to do But you don’t have to worry anyer have a need to do that” Andras sy current he’d gathered dropped instantly, and the georadually became fainter until silence returned
