All the monsters stopped moving under Anderson’s orders. Some were responsible for blocking the exit and others silently surrounded Elena. Even though Caesar and Rosie were lying lifelessly, they turned a blind eye to them and weren’t interested.
Evidently, Elena’s worth far surpassed them.
“Silver hair and red eyes… how beautiful. I’ve heard that red-eyed black cats have enviable appearance after taking human form. Now that I’ve seen it, it’s really remarkable.” Anderson sincerely marvelled.
“…”
Elena didn’t say anything towards Anderson’s praise, she coldly swept her gaze across the surrounding monsters and understood something.
It was probably because she broke the crystal during the magic test and Anderson found out and guessed her real identity.
“Speak, Elena, why did you enter the Academy Tournament? A red-eyed black cat should have a high position among the emos, yet you’re willing to be a maid for that guy called Lin Xiao… strange, do you like him?”
“Fool.” Elena coldly snorted and didn’t bother answering his question.
“Is that not it? Although it’s rare for demons to fall in love with humans, it’s not like it’s never happened before… however, where did your master go, did he just leave you behind?” Anderson asked multiple question in succession, but Elena completely ignored him. He gnashed his teeth and threatened with a smile, “Your master couldn’t save you even if he was here! Elena, I advise you to give up and become my experimentation material!”
Just imagining catching and Elena and turning this arrogant maid into an obedient lab rat, he was itching to have a go and his gaze was filled with a fiery passion.
“You didn’t bring the Lesser Devils here just to catch me, right? You said that you wanted to finish off Caesar, why?” Even though she was surrounded, she was still ice-cold and had a gaze filled with disdain.
“Oh, you’re mistaken, not just Caesar, but all the exceptional teams… this competition is a perfect opportunity since all the most outstanding students across the continent are all gathered here. Finishing them off now would be much easier than waiting until after they grow up.”
“What would you get out of finishing off the outstanding youths? Do you want to weaken the Four Kingdoms?” Elena tilted her head and asked, “Why would you do that, unless, you work for the Great Qin Empire?”
“Hehe, you’re well-informed, but that’s wrong, I’m just cooperating with them, everything I’ve done is for the Venus Society’s noble cause!”
“Venus Society?”
Lin Xiao had said that it wasn’t just demons creating the Lesser Devils to attack, there must have also been humans helping behind the scenes… could it be this Venus Society?
“Anderson! The ones who attacked the Demon King’s with the Lesser Devils… was that you?” Elena glared at Anderson, her eyes filled with killing intent.
“Demon King’s palace? No, I wasn’t qualified to participate… strange, how do you know about that?” Anderson frowned and mumbled.
Although an adult red-eyed black cat was extremely strong, Elena was still young. By his estimates, she should be around seventh-level, although one level higher than the Lesser Devils, but he had a high probability of winning because of quantity.
She should know that too, but the strange thing was, she was neither panicking nor retreating. She even questioned him, like victory was already within her grasp.
As expected of the nobility among demons, is she still trying to save face even when’s she about to die?
Since that’s the case, he’s going to make sure to let Elena savor the taste of becoming a lab rat!
“Hmph, are you still not planning to transform? You’re rather arrogant, don’t blame me for bullying you later… get her!”
All the Lesser Devils finally began moving after receiving an order. They moved their thick legs, walking over the silver leaf fruits and splattering sticky fluids all over the floor. Their rhythmic pacing shook the entire cave.
Since it came to this, Elena had no other choice.
She silently bit her own tongue.
Her scorching hot fresh blood dripped out and melted into her body. She became much more aware because of the sharp pain and seal restraining her was finally loosened.
“What?”
Suddenly, a cloud of black mist enveloped Elena. The Lesser Devils seemed to be taken off guard and their pace slowed.
The opaque mist swallowed all the light, only two chilling cold blood-red light shone out.
“I-is this a red-eyed black cat…”
Anderson stared at the huge black cat that appeared out of thin air in a daze, his shock was hard to put into words and his jaw almost fell off.
Pitch black fur, a huge body, and mesmerizing ruby-like eyes, the aura that black cat emitted gave one the chills.
…Isn’t this too big?
Elena looked so young, how could her body be this huge? She was almost going to collapse the ceiling.
Anderson nervously gulped.
Could it be that the bigger the breasts they have, the larger they are in their true form? In front of this huge black cat, those Lesser Devils were like pitiful children.
Seventh level?
No, it probably already surpassed eighth-level! She could squash all these Lesser Devils just with her body!
He was just pleased with himself earlier and now he immediately wanted to escape!
Wait… Anderson suddenly remembered that she mentioned the Demon King Palace?
Half a year ago, there was a revolt in the Demon King Palace, this event was a secret that not many knew even within Venus Society, not to mention those wandering red-eyed black cats, but how did Elena know?
Could she have been at the Demon King Palace?
So her real identity…
“Goddess, this can’t be!?”
Just as Anderson sighed at the unforeseen event, Elena already raised her front paw up high.
Demon King battle technique, normal claw!
The huge cat claw fiercely swung down, an resistance was futile when faced against it.
At that time, there was a faint cracking sound.
It was the sound of some crystal shattering, Anderson didn’t notice at first and was thinking about how to escape, but after that sound, everything stopped.
The huge cat claws were suspended in midair and vanished.
