Now that Eric dealt with Nol, he was a bit more at ease but just to be sure he forced his skill to activate and read all of their minds. For some reason, none of them had any thoughts but it was good. It only meant Eric didn't have to deal with any surprise attacks.
Eric couldn't fathom that all of them were shocked silent into a black hole that sucked their thinking capabilities away. If Eric knew, he'd slap them all 10 times and spit on this easy difficulty in a wannabe hardcore level game that only branded itself as a nightmare but actually wasn't! Just like gap moe! You look tough but you're just a too big grown marshmallow, fuck off!
However, Nol was the first to recover and grit his teeth. This human diarrhoea actually made him bow to him like this! Nol didn't take this lying down, he would've to strike Eric until Nol emerged as the victor. Nol would sabotage Eric for the rest of this pitiful fulfilled life!
Nol would make sure of it! But for now, Nol couldn't act rashly because Eric anticipated his moves, so Nol had to wait for the best opportunity. Nol didn't know how Eric pinpointed his brilliant plan so easily but Nol just brushed it off as Eric's luck. There was no way this yellow piss of a human could have any power.
"Be glad human," the sudden words Nol spit had Eric stunned. Minutes already passed and this dipshit continued to ride on his brat train ready to enter poopland?
"Nol, let's just stop. I'd like this to hurry," Leon twirled his index finger before pointing at Nol. Then Leon turned to Eric and gave him an eye smile. Eric smiled back but panicked. However, he didn't panic enough to activate his skill.
No matter how shady Leon was, Eric just wanted this lesson to finish already. If this was in a story, how many chapters have been wasted on this shit?
"You can say that because you don't notice how-" Nol stopped himself by coughing.
The rest of his sentence was swallowed down and left everyone perplexed. Come on, crown prince just spit it out. But Eric was concerned about something else. Considering how Leon spoke up first and reprimanded Nol instead of his brothers, didn't this mean Leon and Nol were close?
But just looking at him, how they all minded their own business, Eric wondered if demons even knew what friendship, relationships etc was.
"Now, elder brother," Lav was ready to spread his prince charming curse everywhere, "No need to be embarrassed."
Lav smilingly patted Nol on the shoulders.
OMG! The sun was looking down at the night! The witch was making fun of the dipshit!
Hey, hey, even if you're a witch you should respect the heir! After all, it was once your so-loved food that got digested until it wanted to come out of your rear! It's a perfectly normal body reaction! No need to blame the shit for it!
Eric's mind wandered somewhere to Nirvana and only 1/100th came back again.
"You greasy bastard, don't touch me!"
Oh my, would you look at that! Dipshit actually knew witch was making fun of him. Wow, shits nowadays are very self-conscious!
"Ah, beloved elder brother, don't be like this," I swear the witch's smile just grew wider! What's wrong with their relationship? They really don't get along.
Was this some kind of fight for the throne? The beginning of an uprising? A competition between brothers to seize the reign?
"Guys! Let's start! Already!" Fil excitedly roared and his red hair shook as he moved his head in all directions to intimidate the others into answering, "Yes."
"Hmph, men," Nadi coldly snorted and crossed her arms but Eric felt the occasional more like constant glances at him.
This... this, at first sight, cold and aloof bunch of demons, so good-looking and awe-inspiring, were actually a childish circus! Eric couldn't deal with this.
He was used to having submissive authors who only planned his death in secret!
"Teacher are you ok? Please forgive them, they're just like this," Lyna's sweet, sweet, sweet-honey dripping, angels crying smile soothed Eric's heart and he regained strength, "Everyone."
Eric's resolute tone and determined voice captured everyone's attention, although he seemed strict, his innocent and pure aura still shined through.
Eric was really the perfect two-faced white lotus. Since he had to hold public speeches and appearances more than once a day in a busy month, Eric knew how to make people listen to him, be it willingly or unwillingly.
"I can see you are all excited to learn to become great authors and it makes me as an experienced editor really happy. You might look down on me but I assure you, you will be lobed throughout the human world. So follow suit and we'll have a lot of fun, ok?" and smile.
Eric seemed very sincere. His act was perfect. He was the most heart-warming teacher, right? A bit pitiful but determined and genuine to have them all succeed.
And oh, of course, let them enjoy their time learning as these proud demons were very arrogant. Eric's words fell on momentary silence before Clap Clap.
"Teacher, this was great," Lyna clapped and encouraged Eric. Ah, Lyna was really Eric's last strand of sanity.
"Hmpf, it's ok," the cold beauty couldn't allow the budding spring beauty to steal her man so she also needed to show some kind of approval towards this magnificent and wonderful speech of Eric's.
'So great. I love you. I love you. I love you.' Eric flicked Nadi's thoughts away.
"Tsk," here his nemesis came, "Everyone don't be fooled by this! If you knew what vile dung he actually is, then you wouldn't treat like this! His true nature is nastier then-"
"Nol," Eric smiled, "Don't think about using a poison whip either."
Nol's eyes widened before he bit on his thumb. What the hell? This puny human was able to know what he planned again? Eric actually sweated when he read Nol's thoughts.
This- This absurdly stinking dipshit!
Glad that Nol was silenced! While Nol was incessantly mumbling to himself, Fil laughed and gave Eric a big headache, "Bro! What's wrong with you? Haha, how funny! RIght, lil bro?" Fil hit Van on the back and laughed as if fire spit out of his mouth any second.
"Whatever," Van only grumbled and glared at Eric, "You all are lower than that human. What a joke."
Was that supposed to be an insult? Was Eric a measurement for how low someone could be? Hey this, actually was a fucking insult!
"Van, be nice," Tino clapped his hands like Lyna, "We should all just get along, ok!"
Eric was really absolutely done! He couldn't teach this bunch of personified, walking spitting trope cliché and stereotypical characters! It was the worst nightmare for an editor like him.
