235. Plum Blossom Sword Master Reincarnated into the Baek Family

“……Don’t release your killing intent like that. Seriously… it’s hard to even breathe.”

Bezel rubbed her arms with trembling hands. The goosebumps on her skin wouldn’t subside.

“Answer me.”

Bezel glanced sideways at the opening leading to the basement. Her goal was to retrieve the forbidden grimoire located there.

According to her original plan, she would have already successfully escaped with the grimoire by now. If only she hadn’t run into that silver-haired maid in the library.

It was difficult to use spatial teleportation to get to the basement and retrieve the grimoire. The opponent was sensitive to spatial movement, and finding the grimoire in that messy basement would take some time.

‘……I should give up on the grimoire.’

It wasn’t something so essential that she had to risk her life for, so she decided to abandon it.

“If you don’t answer… I’ll make you answer.”

Yuria held her dagger in reverse grip. Black aura bloomed on the blade, and the shadow beneath her feet writhed like a separate creature.

Sensing danger, Bezel waved her hands at Yuria.

“W-wait a minute. Calm down! You’re curious about where your master went, right? I’ll tell you.”

Yuria’s movements stopped. The writhing shadow also froze.

‘Is that man so precious? Aside from the fact that he’s well-endowed, he doesn’t seem that impressive?’

Moreover, he even seemed a bit foolish.

Aside from his size, Eugene wasn’t Bezel’s type.

“Your master and the dragon went to the Dream World.”

“……Dream World?”

“It’s the ability of Levus, who I’m contracted with.”

Levus, who had been sitting at Bezel’s feet, began to disappear.

“Bring my master back.”

“It’s impossible with my power. I’m too weak to fully control Levus’s power. Levus also used too much power today…”

Yuria took a step forward. Bezel flinched and stepped back at that.

“C-calm down. Your master isn’t dead yet.”

“……”

“Okay. Let’s act calmly. The Dream World is a world that exists, but doesn’t exist. It’s like a mental world? You could say it’s similar.”

“…You’re saying you sent a physical body into a mental world?”

“I know. It’s contradictory. But Levus makes that contradiction possible. Levus is a top-tier demon, after all.”

Bezel glanced around, preparing to escape. She wasn’t foolish enough to continue a battle where she couldn’t be sure of victory.

“……So, what about my master?”

“Your master is probably wandering around the Dream World. The flow of time is different, so maybe a day has already passed in that world.”

“Don’t change the subject. You know that’s not the answer I want.”

Bezel gave a wry smile.

“When your master will return… I don’t know either. But since he went with a dragon, the chances of him returning are quite high. Unless the dragon kills or abandons your master.”

“……”

Yuria, feeling no further value in the conversation, moved. Bezel also used one of Levus’s abilities, spatial teleportation, in response.

Yuria immediately turned to the right. With her sharp senses, Yuria could detect the subtle distortion of space and knew where Bezel would appear.

“Oh my, how scary.”

Bezel waved her hand. A purple magic beam shot towards Yuria. Yuria’s body swayed like a willow tree. The beam only grazed her afterimage.

“You’re not even an aura master, so how are you moving like that?”

Bezel spoke in disbelief, but didn’t stop moving her hands. The space around Yuria’s left ankle distorted and warped. Her leg escaped just before it was completely distorted.

After that, Bezel attempted attacks using spatial distortion. However, Yuria completely evaded the spatial distortions that a normal person wouldn’t even notice, without even looking. It was almost as if she had precognitive abilities.

“I can’t deal with this.”

Bezel muttered with a grimace and stepped backward. A distorted space appeared behind her. She planned to escape from here to outside the city.

“…I won’t let you escape.”

Dozens of shadow blades were swung from all directions around Bezel. There was nowhere to avoid. However, the shadow blades were blocked by the spatial distortion field that Bezel had deployed.

Yuria swung her dagger. A black aura blade containing black lightning flew towards Bezel.

“Hah. Just that… huh?”

Bezel, who had been smiling confidently, panicked and quickly increased her backward speed. The black lightning had torn through the spatial distortion field. The black aura blade flew past, cutting off Bezel’s left arm as she disappeared.

“Kyaaaak! I-I’ll get you back!”

Bezel disappeared, leaving only her left arm behind.

Yuria approached the area where the left arm had been and looked around. She thought that escaping might be a feint and that Bezel might be hiding nearby. However, her senses didn’t detect anything. It seemed she had truly escaped.

“Cough. Cough.”

Blood mixed with her cough.

The aura blade Yuria had used at the end was a technique she had forced out. Its power was outstanding, but some of her meridians were twisted, causing internal injuries.

After spitting out blood a few times, she frowned at Bezel’s left arm that had fallen to the floor. The shadow writhed and enveloped Bezel’s left arm. With a gruesome cracking and snapping sound, Bezel’s left arm disappeared.

“……”

Yuria slowly walked to the place where Eugene had disappeared. Since it was a battle situation, she picked up Eugene’s belongings that she hadn’t been able to retrieve and carefully placed them into the shadow subspace. This included the Lucky Pervert charm that Eugene wore on his wrist and the smartphone he always carried. She also took Priscilla’s belongings, just in case.

Yuria spread out her right palm and stared at it. She could see calluses. Although she had been hiding them through continuous care, the evidence of her training hadn’t disappeared.

“……I’m weak.”

Her right hand clenched into a fist as if it would break.

If she had been strong enough to quickly deal with Bezel, Eugene wouldn’t have been caught up in this. A yearning for power grew within her heart.

Yuria’s gaze shifted elsewhere. She couldn’t just stand here blankly waiting for Eugene to return. It was too much of a waste of time. Also, she still had things to do.

Yuria went down to the basement.

The bookshelves were knocked over on the floor, and books were scattered everywhere. Most of the books were grimoires. They contained forbidden magical knowledge.

Eugene had said to retrieve the forbidden grimoires in the basement, but Yuria planned to take this opportunity to retrieve all the useful books in the library.

While putting the books into her shadow subspace, Yuria narrowed her eyes at one particular grimoire. It was a grimoire with a cover that looked like it was made from animal hide. She could feel a strange power emanating from it.

Other grimoires had a mana-like feeling, but the energy emanating from this grimoire felt a bit different from mana.

‘Is this the grimoire that Master mentioned?’

Yuria carefully reached out her hand. Eugene had said it would be fine as long as she didn’t open the grimoire. But that was wrong. The moment Yuria’s hand touched the cover, the grimoire floated into the air and emitted a blinding light, engulfing Yuria.

Thud.

The grimoire fell to the floor. Yuria had disappeared without a trace.

“Keeek-keek?!”

A long-armed monkey let out a bizarre scream and collapsed.

Kyle, who was holding a sword next to it, checked his surroundings. There were many corpses of long-armed monkeys. There were no more living ones.

“It seems like things are somewhat settled now.”

Sharnel, who was standing a little away from Kyle, said as she straightened her crumpled clothes.

“It wasn’t as dangerous as I thought.”

“That’s because Master sealed that stone, so no more monsters are coming out.”

Kyle’s gaze turned to the sky. He could see a black stone sealed by ten magic circles. Lowering his gaze slightly, he saw the headmaster and professors who were dealing with the situation.

Kyle felt a question when he looked at the headmaster. Why was it Priscilla who sealed that stone, not the headmaster? In the first place, the headmaster hadn’t done anything particularly noteworthy.

“……Sharnel. Is your master perhaps… a dragon?”

He was quick to notice things outside of romance.

He had noticed that the headmaster was strangely wary of Priscilla and that Priscilla had privileges that other professors didn’t have. More than anything, he felt an alien sensation whenever he faced Priscilla. It felt like he was facing something huge, not a human.

“W-what?! W-what are you talking about? There’s no way she’s a dragon!”

Sharnel was flustered and almost fell forward, barely managing to regain her balance and shout.

Thanks to that, Kyle was able to be certain.

“Professor Priscilla is a dragon. Judging by her hair color… is she perhaps a blue dragon?”

“……Kyle. It’s best if you keep quiet. Master doesn’t like her identity being revealed.”

Sharnel lowered her voice and warned him.

Kyle nodded. It didn’t change anything that he knew Priscilla was a dragon.

“The professors seem busy, so let’s go see Ruby and Eugene. There’s a great barrier, so they should be fine, but just in case…”

They went back to the arena. They confirmed that Ruby was safe, but Eugene was not there.

“Ruby! Where’s Eugene?!”

“He said he had important business and left. Didn’t you meet him?”

“Important business…?”

“Mr. Kyle! Where are you going?!”

“To find Eugene! He must have gone to the dorm… no, to the city!”

The important business that Kyle thought of was Eugene’s maids. He told a professor and then ran out to the city to find Eugene. Fortunately, the city was peaceful. The people in the city didn’t even know that the academy had been attacked.

Kyle found Eugene’s maids, Lisel and Kelly, in the city. However, his face didn’t brighten, but became even darker.

It was because Eugene and Yuria weren’t there.

He returned to the academy. He wondered if there was something he had missed. There was no one in Eugene’s dorm, nor in the dining hall or the student council room.

The suspicious place was the half-destroyed library. There were signs of a fierce battle, but it hadn’t been revealed who had fought whom. Only a few corpses of librarians had been found.

“Where are you? Eugene, Yuria…”

***

“Aaaah!”

Bezel appeared in the forest with a scream. She was holding her severed left arm with magic, looking distraught.

“My precious left arm…. Levus. Help me. With your power, you can restore at least one left arm.”

Meow.

A black cat with three eyes appeared at Bezel’s feet.

Levus sat on the ground, quietly watching Bezel.

“……How long are you going to pretend to be a cat? I’m asking for help, you know?”

Meow.

“…Can I hit you? Sometimes, your obsession with being a cat is so frustrating. How long are you going to keep doing this?”

Meow.

Bezel felt a tickling sensation instead of the pain in her left arm. She looked down at her left arm. Her left arm was slowly regenerating. It was quite a grotesque sight.

This wasn’t Levus’s dream ability. It was just the power of a demon, using demonic energy to regenerate the body.

“Levus. Thank you.”

When Bezel said her thanks, the cat had already disappeared.

Bezel walked along the forest path. She had no lingering attachment to Goldway Academy. She was the type to not look back at things she had lost interest in.

What Bezel was thinking about now was the silver-haired maid.

‘I don’t know her exact age, but… she’s probably in her early twenties. And yet, she’s reached that level…. If she has time, she’ll grow even stronger. Thinking about the future, I need to eliminate her as quickly as possible.’

However, there was no suitable method. The organization Bezel belonged to, Pantheon, wasn’t in a very comfortable situation right now.

‘……The dragon and that maid are both people to watch out for. For now, I need to be careful not to get involved with them and proceed with my plans.’

***

I noticed that there was a warm and pleasant female body in my arms. Instead of opening my eyes, I chose to move my hands.

I felt the sensation of soft breasts in my hands. They were breasts so large that I couldn’t grasp them with one hand.

I rubbed my head. It felt like it was near her shoulder and armpit, and there was a pleasant scent of flesh.

‘Hmm. F-cup…!’

I gently rolled my fingers over her nipples, which hadn’t yet hardened. As I did so, I subtly swayed my hips. I could feel a smooth and elastic sensation on my dick. I didn’t need to see it to know. It was definitely a woman’s thigh.

“Get off before I blow your head off.”
