章 29: Chapter 29. A Demon

"What happened?" shouted Elder Chen seeing Fu Xie Lan injured on the floor with several books scattered around him. He only left the library for a few minutes and was messed up like this.

Seeing the state of his mother, Wan Lie panicked and immediately approached her, carrying her regardless of the whereabouts of people there.

"Hey what are you doing?" shouted Fei Lin seeing the man's actions.

Elder Bao also approached Fu Xie Lan and checked the girl's condition.

"Who hurt her?"

Immediately all eyes were on Fei Lin.

"So what? I'm just annoyed with her. You guys don't look at me like that, we also both know she's half-human and I don't like her."

Elder Huang Bao who heard Fei Lin's words let out a harsh sigh. This all happened because of it.

He was too busy with all the things that had happened recently and had forgotten that the scent pills he gave her a week ago were the last, while the effects of the pills would only last one week. He only realized it yesterday and just came back after he had finished making it.

The reason why they were able to come together was that Wan Lie asked Elder Chen to take him to Elder Huang Bao to tell him that Fu Xie Lan had regained consciousness.

"Ehem alright, since you guys already know, I want to tell you one thing. This half-human girl will be my disciple from now on. If any of you don't like it, you can face me," said elder Huang Bao announcing.

Those who heard Elder Huang Bao's words were jealous because Elder was known as a person who had no interest in having a disciple despite the many who volunteered.

"If you have nothing to say, disband! Today the library will be temporarily closed, "said Elder Chen.

All the disciples left the room, while Fei Lin could only hold back her anger, snorted in annoyance then followed the other students leaving the room.

"Little Xie Lan, how are you feeling now?" Elder Bao asked after giving Fu Xie Lan a healing pill. Currently, they are in Fu Xie Lan's room.

"It's getting better, thank you," she replied

"What happened? Why did that girl hurt you?" asked Wan Lie and received a nod from the two elders.

Fu Xie Lan told him everything without adding or subtracting.

"The history of Phoenix academy?" Elder Huang Bao asked.

"Why are you interested in that book?" he added again.

"I'm curious, and since I can't remember anything about this world, I also don't know why they call me half-human, I don't understand. Not only that, but they also say that my body is fairy blood," Fu Xie Lan replied.

She was indeed curious, but on the part, she didn't remember anything, she was forced to lie because all of Fu Xie Lan's memories revolved around the human race. Having a memory that was so terrifying that it managed to cause ripples in her eyes. Even if only for a moment, all of that did not escape Wan Lie's attention.

"Hmm, what do you want to know?" asked Elder Chen.

"Everything about this world, about all the races in this world, and about those who say that I am half-human. If uncle finds out, I want to know everything," replied Fu Xie Lan.

"Well, now that you have just been injured, you should take a break first. Whatever you want to know, I will tell you tomorrow," said Elder Chen.

"Who is there?" A shocked voice came from a girl walking alone at night. She had just returned from somewhere and headed to the student dormitory of Phoenix Academy, which was not far from where. She was to rest. It was very late at night, there were no more students passing by, the atmosphere was very quiet and so cold. It was bone-chilling.

"Hey, who's there?" she shouted over and over.

"Don't be a loser, get out of here!" she added again after capturing the silhouette of someone following her.

That figure suddenly appeared before her.

"You?" she shouted in surprise when she saw the figure of the man she saw in the library a while ago.

He is Wan Lie.

"You helped that half-human, what do you want?" she shouted irritably.

She just realized that the man carrying the half-human girl was very handsome. His body was tall with a wide chest that looked so strong, a chiseled face with a jaw that was so strong. His black hairstyles added a flawless impression to the man. She became jealous and annoyed. Why would such a handsome man side with a half-human girl?

"Save your question carefully because now I'm really angry," said the man coldly. A black flash of light formed on his palm.

"Demon? You are indeed a demon. What are you trying to do?" the girl shouted in disbelief and panic. According to the story, the only demon left is the current Lord. Her steps wobbled back. No wonder she couldn't feel where that man was before, it was because that man's strength was so different from her.

"Wait ..." her words were not finished and her body was suddenly lifted in the air with a black smog surrounding her entire body.

"Shh, I-hurts," groaned the girl. She was in great pain. The black smog that enveloped her entire body as if flaying her alive, her chest felt narrow and tight. She had trouble breathing.

"He-help ..." tried to shout for help but failed.

"Trying to ask for help, huh?" said the man immediately silencing the girl's mouth by choking her neck using a black smog.

The girl struggled in pain, her legs continued to swing with difficulty to reach the ground, her face flushed, her pupils dilated with neck veins protruding from her respiratory tract as if forced to gag.

It happened a few moments before her body was thrown to the ground from a height. The sound of broken bones followed by coughing up blood again filled the silence.

"Wh-wh-what's your problem with me?" asked the girl and tried to get up even though some of her bones were broken.

"Oh, still strong huh?" said the man again bringing up a ball of black smog in his hand.

"Wa-wait. Stop!" the girl shouted hysterically again.

"Is it because of that half-human girl?" she added again in a hoarse voice.

"She's just a half-human, we both hate her," after saying that, her body immediately fell back to the ground, unable to move.

Several small animals sprang up from the ground and began to gnaw at her body. Centipedes, worms, and other animals. The girl wanted to scream but her voice was muffled. She was both sick and disgusted to see the animals begin to fill parts of her body. Wanted to use the mana in her body to repel the beasts but couldn't, like something was blocking the flow of mana inside her.

"So what if she's half-human?" asked the young man again in his voice.

"I don't like it when someone hurts her," he added.

"Enjoy your time, I make sure the cute animals will accompany you until morning," he said, smiling with satisfaction and then disappeared.

On the other hand, two pairs of eyes were watching in the dark. They have just recovered and are now heading to the border area of the Werewolf and Vampire races to do something. They took the route in the Wizard race's territory because it was the fastest route. Their journey suddenly came to a halt as they sensed extremely powerful mana coming from where they were now. Which one is familiar to them. Mana from the Demon race.

"Momo ... what did I just see?" he asked in a whisper without turning his attention to the girl who was in pain.
