The monsters were ignoring the three of them like they were also part of the swarm. But the principal was attracting a little attention to the monsters. They were looking at them but they were confused about whether they should attract them or not. They were just staring at them without blinking.
"Viktor, can we have a conversation after this problem is solved?", the principal asked.
"Why not? I don't see any problem.", Viktor answered.
He's calm now. But how is he not sensing the pressure? There's a huge boss in front of us which is probably guarding the guardian fragment.
"Master, the fragment is right in front of us.", Adonis said.
So, he already felt the presence of the monster. And the seal is right in front of us. Can't he see the seal around it too? There's a monster sitting there using invisibility.
"Adonis, take care of the principal and make sure he doesn't cast any magic. Or it will cause a bigger problem."
"But why is my magic a problem? the principal asked.
"You are a full human with a little guardian blessing on your soul. So you are a tasty food for all types of demons. So, if you cast any magic spell, all the monsters on your back will eat you." Viktor took out a sword from his left crest and it changed its shape to a different weapon automatically.
Hm. I guess my weapon is well-made. I really did a great job making this quarter infinite weapon with the green stone I found from the red light district vendor.
Handling this kind of weapon requires a lot of mana and concentration. But fortunately, I don't lack any of them.
Viktor went inside the chamber by crossing the small bridge and saw the dead body of Alexis near the shield. His body looked like it died hundreds of years ago. Due to the ring inside his body, it ate every ounce of mana and ended up so close to the guardian's fragment.
Alexis, you are so lucky that you didn't touch the shield. Or I might lose the chance to take the ring from you.
Viktor put his hand inside his dry body that has almost turned into dust and took out the ring.
"I've finally found the ring…"
Soon, the ring disappeared with his other crests and he gained his 5th crest in the middle of his right hand. It wasn't that powerful, but it has the power to manipulate every memory of a living being.
"Nope, this crest isn't as powerful as I thought. This crest isn't resistant to holy magic. What a waste of my energy."
He became so disappointed that he made a chained battleaxe and threw it towards the indivisible monster's head.
Grrrr!!!!
"Oh, you are a tough guy… But I'm just warming up."
Viktor pulled the chain and the huge axe flew back to him. "You are going to die today you damn monster!!" Viktor threw the axe again on its leg and this time, it sliced through the leg like butter. And its invisibility skill went out.
The principal was shocked to see the monster that Viktor was fighting with. He tried to run but Adonis was holding him in his arms like a baby. He was stuck in Adonis's arms.
"Hey!! Let go of me!! We have to save him!! It's a damn dragon!! A twin-headed dragon from the legends!! It's a catastrophic monster!! We have to call all the shadow knights right now!!!"
"Don't worry, my master is fine. He is enjoying the fight for the first time in his life." Adonis said.
"He's going to die!! That's an actual guardian he's fighting with!! Aaahh!!! This world is going to be wiped out!!!"
But no matter how hard he was trying, Adonis's grip was something else…
"Oi! Why are you stopping ha? Come on, fight with me. This is the first time I've found a worthy opponent!" Viktor was so excited to find a real guardian face-to-face. So, he was throwing his all to win the battle.
"A mere human dares to provoke me in my slumber! That one or two crests from some small fry guardian aren't enough to kill me." The dragon started to talk after he lost his leg twice. But his godly regeneration skills were regenerating his wounds every time Viktor made a deep cut.
"Oh! How dare a lizard talk back when he's literally stuck inside this shield made by a damn guardian. Were you his prisoner?"
"Human! Don't be an ignorant bug. I will give you a chance to live if you leave this place right now. Or else I will eat your soul."
"Leave this place? Let me think… Never.. Keeekekekeke!!!!" The grin on Viktor's face provoked the dragon so much that he revealed his hidden card and it made multiple clones of him. Viktor was surrounded by 20 clones of the dragon that looked exactly the same as the real one.
"Hmm? Shadow clones? Are they real or fake like an anime character I came across in a manga book?" Viktor asked.
"Stop spouting nonsense when you are about to die. Now, say your last words, human!!"
"My last words? I've never thought about it. But if you insist, I will gladly tell you. F..K off lizard."
Viktor turned his weapon into a huge green scythe which was perfect for slicing the dragon's neck in one move.
The scythe was glowing and emitting a green aura. The aura was from the crest of distraction, so it started to attract all the monsters inside the underground dungeon.
"Adonis, take care of them. Make sure not even a single vibration reaches the academy."
"Yes, master!! I will gladly eat them with all my heart!!"
Wait, eat it?
But Viktor didn't have any time to see what was going on outside the seal, so he turned his attention to the dragon to continue his fight.
"Human! You are being so reckless. You don't even know what kind of situation you are in!!"
"You are nothing but a frog stuck in a well. So, be honoured that your fragment will become a great weapon for me."
Viktor held his scythe frimley and took a 360° turn to make a dimensional cut-through technique. A ring of aura was created around him and it sliced through the 10-barrier shield along the dragon's head. The fake clones turned into dust after the real one was killed.
Meanwhile, Adonis was also finished eating all the monsters around him and the principal was so shocked that he fainted.
I just killed a guardian instead of making it one of my pawns. Tsk! What a waste. He's the one to blame anyway. He provoked me.
The fragment that entered my body a few seconds ago is a real deal. I can't believe I found something like this under my school. But I am sure it was guarding something too.
'Master, I've finished the task you gave me."
"Oh, I see. But why are you carrying him like a bag of potatoes?"
"He fainted, master."
Viktor became speechless…
