Back to the present.
After surprising the enemy forces and launching an ambush on them, Mika and Belian headed toward the castle in order to provide assistance.
Less than 15 demons remained, however, the morals of the people defending the castle increased enormously thanks to Mika.
"A-amazing..." Vasilya gasped as she looked in the direction of Mika.
"..."
Bakil could just stare dumbfoundedly, wondering how much Mika held back when Bakil and Vasilya fought him previously during the graduation ceremony.
But they were not in a position to sway their attention to Mika, after all, a B-rank demon was in front of them.
"Vasilya, get behind me!" Bakil shouted alarmingly.
Nervously, Vasilya raised her staff in the back.
"You know what betraying us means, right?" the demon asked calmly.
That demon spotted those two when they tried to head to the castle.
"Wouldn't we die either way...?" Bakil remarked with a nervous smile.
