Chapter 65

"DEMON EMPEROR!!"

"DEMON EMPEROR!!!"

"DEMON EMPEROR!!!!"

The Cheers intensified as more people bustled out of the Gym. Marcus spotted Miss Sylvie and Professor Jules making their way through the cluster of fascinated students. Marcus felt uncomfortable but also felt proud and mighty as he saw the student's eyes glow in admiration.

He stood with a smug look on his face, the Cheers kept on intensifying to an extent that his head bobbed with the rhythm.

But inside, he knew he had to get out of there ASAP (As Soon As Possible). The Crowd seemed to close the distance and slowly shuffle towards him. His instincts said he would be surrounded in less than a minute. He Had to get out..

He knew there was someone else targeting him. He was pretty sure Briskus knew what happened to Naraga, so he must have sent Gods according to his weaknesses, but these two Gods he killed right now were on the disadvantageous side right from the beginning.

His mind traced back to the day he came back after The Guardian Trials. He remembered that he had felt eyes spying on him. Even though the Assassins had struck right after that day, Marcus felt that they were not behind that uncanny presence.

He remembered this because...he felt that same presence yet again. That feeling of someone watching him. Which meant those eyes were right now.....In the Academy, around him.

His appearance presently wasn't the same as his original, but still his heart said that the spying eyes knew who he was.

So he had to get out, But Leaving without saying anything after saving them was a bit lame and cool at the same time, because that's what Cool Heroes do.. Speak through actions.

He had to atleast acknowledge his newly formed fan base even though there was someone dangerous lurking in the crowd. But How?.. How?? .. How???!.

The thought kept on banging his head as he started losing his cool.

His head popped back suddenly when Almighty sense reported him of a presence behind him.

His eyes were no more than two slits as he turned, but it widened with gratitude when they set themselves on....Dave!.

"I'll leave this to you too..."

Marcus grinned as he conjured a ball of fire in his right hand.

Dave was peering at him. His Face shouted surprise and a sliver of caution as his eyebrows twisted and frowned. His lips became thin and his pupils slit as his eyes narrowed.

Marcus turned back to the bustling crowd.

"FANS!!!..STAY BACK..LET ME TRANSFORM BACK TO MY ORIGINAL FORM!!"

Marcus shouted the details in a way such that they heard what he said. He made sure to pause each and every word in his overdetailed sentence.

The Crowd stopped dead on their tracks and looked at him in surprise. Marcus conjured another Fire ball in his left hand. Dave widened his eyes at his palms, Marcus knew what Dave was going to think..That he was going to launch an attack!!.

Dave wasn't there when he fought the Gods so he was pretty sure Dave would take his Fireballs in a different manner.

The crowd was standing still. A pin dropping would have echoed through the air. With half of his power the legs of Marcus left the ground as he skipped time and appeared right in front of his surprised friend who was stunned to react.

As for now, Dave was Invisible to the Crowd's eye as Marcus covered his body perfectly. Their Eyes met, Marcus brought his flames together and with a Bang clapped his hands. Dust flied towards the crowd as all of them winced because of the huge gust.

Smokes covered them both as Marcus switched back to his human form. His feet accelerated under him within a nano second and he had vanished back to the boys restroom.

Dave was left in the smoke and he struggled to catch his breath as he coughed. His eyes were cringed and his sight was blurry.

Marcus sneakily joined the crowd. He made sure no one noticed him.

'SUCCESS!!!'

His mind screamed and he grinned. His plan had worked.

Dave was already famous so it wouldn't be surprise to the crowd when they see him come out of the smoke. There was also no worry about the secret presence going after Dave beacuse it knew who the real Demon Emperor was, It knew who Marcus was.

With a Final cough, Dave walked out of the smoke and gulped air. His eyes slowly opened and the blue vanished. He saw what was happening in front..No Around him.

The Crowd had surrounded him in a circle, Girls blushed in the front lines as they got too close to Dave.

"It's Davedevil!!!!"

Someone shouted amongst them.

"It makes sense!!!"

Another Guy shouted behind him.

Dave was confused, heck no, he was petrified!!!

What was that Demon???. His thought hammered his mind when the crowd slowly started chanting.

Marcus chuckled as he joined in.

"DAVEDEVIL!"

"DAVEDEVIL!!"

"DAVEDEVIL!!!"

It was fun, Marcus kept on chanting and chuckling at Dave's face which loudly expressed.

'W T F'

"No..No It's a misunderstanding..Guys stop it!!"

Dave shouted but his shot at getting their attention was muffled by the insanely loud chants.

His eyes darted frantically amongst them. It got nailed at a familiar face as it travelled through face by face. His eyes were now on a handsome man whose hair was tied back into a Manbun. His face struggled to hold back laughter.

Right at that moment Dave understood it all. The Huge Gust of wind and the tremor he had felt as he was walking towards the Academy Gate....The Demon who was a bit familiar.....and finally the huge overwhelming pressure he felt from him.

The pieces joined itself and a picture formed inside his head as he figure out the origin from where it had all started.

The pressure he had felt now and the pressure he felt before in the Domain was the same.

"IT WAS YOU!!! FUCKER!!!!"

His hands trembled with rage and surprise as he pointed at the handsome man.

"MARCUS!!!!!!!"
