Chapter 395 Ignorance Is Not Bliss



From the very moment Lenny entered this second level, his sharp, attentive ears could hear the low conversation amongst the students.

"What the fucking hell? What is a freaking demon doing here?"

"After all their kind has done, that bastard even has the guts to come into our town."

"Is destroying the world not enough for these bastards? Now they are coming for our little skull town."

None of them even considered remembering the rule of the Pact, which states that no demon could enter a witch's territory.

These students obviously lived their lives in great comfort.

One look at them, and even Lenny could tell that they had never seen a true demon in their entire lives.

All they could do was recognize Perseus's magic.

The moment the student came to challenge Perseus, the other students cheered loudly.

"Yes, Brother Bob is going to take care of it!"

Another nodded, "It's only normal. After all, brother Bob is the last son of Senior Magi Fang."

"Of course, no wonder he was the best in our class. I heard Senior Magi Fang once killed a lesser-rank demon."

"Huh!?" All the others gasped at the same time.

"Really? Are you sure about this? He killed a demon?"

"Yes, I'm sure about it. You guys don't know this, but last holiday, I went to Brother Bob's house to do the assignments with him. I saw the head of the demon on the wall with my own two eyes."

"WOW! That is unbelievable. He actually did that. Are you sure it was not the head of a mutant beast you saw on the wall?"

"No! No!! I am sure of what I saw. We have learned about different kinds of demons and devils in the classroom. This one matched the description in our text books. I am very sure I got it right. See, I even sketched it out. See!"

The student showed the others his note, and they nodded as their eyes and mouths were filled with praise.

"Incredible! It is really a demon. That means brother Bob has the will to kill a demon running in his family. It is no wonder he was not afraid and walked up to him. Brother Bob is going to show him who is boss.

"Yes, he is. Get him, brother Bob! Tear him apart, tear him limb from limb!" Another encouraged.

Lenny could not believe what he was hearing.

For the first time in a long time, he actually contemplated laughing or crying for these ignorant students.

The person who said, Ignorance is bliss, did not know that such foolish children existed.

Initially, Lenny had wanted to start with the slaughter, as the mission statement from the sisters of Fate had stated.

After all, he was supposed to kill students of the Red Skull Magic School.

He really wanted to start with these unlucky fellows.

However, such an interesting show unfolded before his eyes.

This was just too interesting to watch.

Perseus was unaware that his Demon aura was flaring about the place like fire that threatened to consume everything in sight, and this so-called 'brother Bob' was unaware of the kind of bloody killer he had just met.

After all, what was there to boast about if one had killed a demon before?

Perseus had not only killed but also enjoyed the juicy flavor of demon meat in his mouth.

For anyone, the attraction of drama is always interesting to watch.

Lenny was no exception to this.

He held back his laughter as much as he could.

But he couldn't any longer, and little bits escaped his mouth from time to time.

These were bits that Bob took note of.

He could not even feel an ounce of magic from Lenny.

As far as he was concerned, Lenny did not even have the qualifications to open his mouth in his presence.

Bob's anger had climbed, and he really wanted to show these foreigners before him a lesson.

"You insolent!" He stretched a hand to grab Lenny.

For a split second, Lenny's eyes seemed to focus on this action.

However, just before it would reach, it stopped in its tracks.

Bob was surprised by this.

After all, who would dare to touch him?

He traced the thick palm to the well-muscled hand holding him in place.

Bob tried to exert force to release his hand, but Perseus's grip was as sturdy as a clamp.

"I don't know what your problem is, but trust me, I'm only saving your life." Perseus stated.

Bob instantly became furious. After all, his mates behind him were watching.

Ego was sometimes a dagger to a person's own heart.

Bob activated his negative magic.

Perseus sensed the explosive magic that was ignited.

Immediately, he pulled Bob's hand back.

~Spluregh~

Blood splashed all over the room, especially on the face of the waitress, as Bob's arm was instantly uprooted from his shoulder.

For a moment, there was a brief pause.

Everybody looked on in surprise.

The students behind looked on in surprise the waiters, Bob, and, surprisingly, Perseus.

And then came the sharp, deafening scream from the waitress as she ran out of the place. She even fell to the ground a few times, but that did not stop her struggle to escape as fast as she could.

That scream pulled everyone in the room back to reality.

The students instantly activated their negative magic while Bob, in disbelief, screamed as blood jetted intermittently from his shoulder.

~Spluregh~ ~Spluregh~ ~Spluregh~

A mixture of fear and disbelief washed over him like the waves of the ocean at the beach.

His breathing became heavy, and he fell to the ground.

"What... How!?" Bob stammered as he was genuinely lost for words.

The realization of what had just happened was too humongous to believe.

However, Perseus, on the other hand, was perplexed by what had just happened.

He could not help but scratch his head as he gave Lenny a questioning look.

Lenny had held it long enough.

He burst into loud laughter...
