后宫帝王之妾女主角

Chapter 15 15. Strong Foe [1]



A few days after.

Adelio was the supervisor in charge of the group which was going to hunt demons on the outskirts of a demon stronghold. There were seven places around the three strongholds where students were permitted to hunt the demons.

When the first demon expedition was exposed a lot of things were also exposed, Adelio used many methods to reach the deepest information available in the human domain about the demons, and to his surprise, he got some information that wasn\'t available to the general public.

Demons were preparing their settlements for a long time in the human domain using caves, dungeons, tree roots, plain lands, etc.

The only thing demons require is dense mana to start their cultivation and development.

Currently, Adelio was keeping watch on a particular group of students.

"Jin, I think we should go back. We haven\'t found a Baron and I think we won\'t find any on the outskirts. This eerie feeling is making me uncomfortable."

A boy with a tall and muscular body built with golden-brown hair and hazel eyes said while grabbing a staff in his hand and kneeling to observe something.

"Hmm, I think the same, Jin. This place is useless. We haven\'t even found a monster here, as if someone hunts down all the monsters in the vicinity."

A knight-like woman spoke. Her womanly assets were stuffed in her chest plate, and her thick thighs and buttocks were the proof that she trained hard. While speaking with others she slid her long pink hair back of her ear. Her golden eyes sparkled when she thought of hunting this hunter who was stealing their prey.

"There are traces of a fight and spilled blood here and there, who can it be? Doesn\'t this person know that we are here?"

Another girl with short brown hair snorted. Wearing white and golden robes she looked like a priestess and had the same appearance as the previous tall boy. She looked annoyed and spoke in disdain.

"I hope it is not that bastard Kevin."

She continued her rant.

"Tsk"

Jin, a blonde boy with light green pupils, and a handsome appearance, while holding daggers and wearing noble clothes clicked his tongue.

"!"

All the people in the group looked at the brown-haired beauty and the latter put her hands on her mouth and made an apologetic gesture.

There was a total of eight people in the group.

Five girls and three boys.

Jin and Thomas were the only boys in the group, while Anna the pink-haired girl, and Lisa the brown haired-girl.

These four were the top geniuses of the royal academy. And the other four girls were just there to fill the spots and do the chores. They were the daughters of a few noble families, which were put to court Jin and Thomas by all means.

Jin was a talented and hardworking individual. Although a noble, he did not mind commoners as Lisa did. He used to work hard to impress his family and was successful so became complacent, he only woke from his stupor when Kevin defeated him.

Even Amaya lost interest in Jin when he was defeated by a commoner, this In turn made Jin work hard and earn his spot again was what the story was supposed to be.

However, he started blaming the situation, people, and most importantly Kevin. He was second only to Kevin in all aspects but that didn\'t change the fact that he was \'Second\' and not \'First\'. He was lower than Kevin.

This inflated his ego and he decided to show the world how better he was than Kevin, and this was his chance.

He wanted to collect as many cores as possible and then show the whole academy, how great he was.

\'You shouldn\'t have said that!\'

p Thomas shouted at his sister using twin telepathy.

\'Sorry!\'

Lisa replied with an apologetic look, however, if one were to look close, her seductive and juicy pink lips had a smirk.

She wanted to make Kevin and Jin fight while enjoying the scene from the front seat.

Adelio observed the scene with an amused expression.

He didn\'t expect Jin to hate Kevin, his favorite student, so much.

But it was not his place to do anything.

He was going to watch them, warn them, and if necessary beat them if they went away from the assigned area.

\'I should just raid that stronghold.\'

Adelio thought but then quickly shook his head.

He had fought with a demon viscount once, and he knew very well how strong those demons were.

\'I should\'ve brought headmistress and sir high priest with me.\'

Sigh.

When he first heard about the demon stronghold, he wanted to tell this to his most trusted people.

"So? What is our plan, Jin?"

Anna asked.

"I don\'t want to fall behind some dick-shit commoner!"

Lisa replied.

Thomas was neutral.

"…"

Jin thought for a moment.

"Fine… we will go ahead. We are strong enough to win and kill those filthy bastards."

Jin was an assassin, Thomas was a magic swordsman, Anna was the tank and Lisa was a priestess.

The remaining four girls were also not pushovers, two were attackers and two were defenders.

All of them were peak second circles and if they hunt down some high-rank monsters or demons they might break through the third circle.

\'I will show that Kevin!\'

Jin thought and gave orders to get ready.

\'This is going to be interesting.\'

\'What a pain.\'

\'This is bad…\'

Lisa, Anna, and Thomas had different thoughts.

Thomas and Anna were observant among the whole group.

Thomas didn\'t like how Jin was putting their life at stake to satisfy his petty ego, but he can do nothing. After all, his family had assigned him to safeguard this young master of theirs.

\'Lisa, if anything bad happens then contact sir Adelio as fast as you can.\'

As she was a priestess she was only a support person, she can contact Adelio the fastest among all of them.

\'Don\'t worry~. I will do that~\'

He frowned at her reply, but there was nothing he could do.

They continued their journey.

Adelio kept a close eye on them but did not meddle, the only reason for that was, in the future if you break the rule then you are the only one responsible for the consequences. He wanted these young ones to understand this.

Somewhere in the jungle.

"A group of humans approaching us."

A hoarse voice said.

"They are attacking three strongholds at the same time, huh?"

Another voice asked.

"We should\'ve been careful, but now what?"

A silky, seductive, and mature feminine voice questioned.

"Where are the most humans?"

The first voice asked.

The informant gulped nervously at the barrage of questions he had to answer.

"Her majesty Matriarch, we lowly servants are great in numbers, if we attack these measly humans all at the same time, we can get them."

The demon who looked like a strategist answered.

"Hmm."

The demoness pondered for a moment. Although thinking or making decisions was not her department, she had to do it so she can show her clan her worth.

She was the matriarch of the sub-branch of the Lust clan, the one who got selected after a fierce battle for that position after the death of the previous Matriarch and Patriarch.

The same demoness who cursed Logan died after the curse and this demoness fought with others for that position.

After the fight, she simply killed the previous Patriarch.

The two sitting with her were two peak baron demons, who wanted to become the next Patriarch.

"Fine… do what you think is fine, but don\'t let them come near the dungeon."

The same dungeon was close to the Selva village.

"Finally got here!"

I said while releasing a sigh.

[A/N: As promised I will tell you the small details you might have missed in the last chapter, and starting from the next chapter I will write those down then and there.

1) Michael no longer calls Kevin \'Host\'.

2) Kevin\'s behavior is changing the more the comprehension of his system is increasing.

3) Michael addresses himself as \'Michael\' because he is the king of justice.
