The Narrow-Eyed Villain of the Demon Academy

The demons around me began to collapse one by one.

They had fainted, unable to withstand the killing intent emitted by the little girl.

I, too, was not unscathed by the pressure.

\'At this rate, I\'m going to pass out…….\'

I had no time to care about the demons around me or Rene.

I was barely able to stand, clutching my legs with both hands.

Groaning inwardly, I was now convinced that this situation was part of the entrance exam for Sytan.

It was a test to weed out the weak-minded by emitting killing intent that they could not withstand.

However, I wondered if there were any demons who could maintain their sanity under this pressure.

In fact, after about 10 minutes, there were only a handful of candidates left standing.

Even if I collapsed now, I would still pass, but it would be impossible to catch the attention of the instructors.

\'……What should I do?\'

During that short time.

I pondered and pondered.

My mental strength was already mostly depleted, and if I allowed myself to relax even a little, I would lose consciousness.

But the answer was not forthcoming.

And then, the little girl\'s voice echoed in my ears again.

"So you\'ve made it this far? Shall I increase the intensity a little?"

More from here?

My mind was gradually becoming hazy.

It was not a metaphor.

My vision was blurring, unable to withstand the little girl\'s killing intent.

Just before I collapsed, a faint possibility crossed my mind.

\'……Wait, if it\'s the same killing intent, maybe?\'

Killing intent that could not be blocked because it had no form.

But what if it was the same killing intent?

It was the same logic as a counter-fire.

If I filled my surroundings with killing intent, I might be able to repel the other killing intent.

It was not certain.

If I failed, I would not be able to hold on any longer, but it was worth a try.

Swish.

I squeezed out all my strength and barely managed to get to my feet.

Then, using Mana Manipulation, I circulated the mana in my body.

Before I knew it, my heart was pounding and my mana was beginning to activate.

"Whew……."

I took a deep breath and glared at the pink-haired little girl.

The next moment,

Then, I released the killing intent that had been building up into my surroundings.

Swoosh.

Dozens of killing intents shot out like blades, pushing back the the girl\'s pressure.

Soon, my killing intent completely neutralized her aura.

A sense of freedom washed over me.

I gazed at the girl with a satisfied smile.

“…….”

The girl glared at me with a look of dissatisfaction.

Perhaps I had gone a bit too far.

Well, it shouldn\'t be a problem.

After all, the situation we had just experienced was only a part of the entrance exam.

The girl herself had said it, so it must be true.

That meant there was no chance of the girl attacking me out of spite.

\'I wonder how the situation has changed….\'

With my body feeling lighter, I surveyed my surroundings.

As expected, Rene seemed to have passed the test.

Rene was staggering, but unlike the other candidates, she hadn\'t collapsed.

And then there were the other unscathed individuals...

Six of them.

That was the number excluding Rene and me.

So, were these the only ones who had passed the test? That couldn\'t be the case.

What could they possibly accomplish with only six new students?

In the story I had written, the number of students at Sytan Academy exceeded several hundred.

My guess was that the test was designed in such a way that anyone who could endure for a certain amount of time would pass.

The individuals who had managed to stay on their feet until now were probably...

\'Descendants of the Seven Deadly Sins. No one else could have maintained their sanity in this situation.\'

It was certain.

The six candidates who were glaring at the girl.

Some of them were unfamiliar to me, but others had faces that seemed oddly familiar.

These were the individuals who would later be counted among the strongest in the Demon Realm.

First, there was a girl standing tall with an air of composure.

And then there was the boy who burned with passion, his eyes filled with excitement and determination.

There were a few others whose faces I vaguely remembered, but the two characters I had created with such affection stood out.

However, the fate of those children was not a happy one.

They were destined to be mercilessly killed by the human protagonist and his companions.

But...

Why was there a figure in my field of vision who I had never imagined would be at Sytan Academy?

\'Why is that girl at Sytan Academy?\'

The unexpected appearance of this figure sent alarm bells ringing in my head.

I rubbed my eyes again and looked at the girl.

She seemed completely unconcerned, her demeanor radiating an aura of indifference.

White hair, crimson eyes, and a distinctive black circlet adorning her head.

I knew her.

She was a figure I could never forget, so I could only blink in disbelief.

\'The Demon King.\'

Diana, the Demon King who would later become the greatest villain in the Demon Realm.

Among the Seven Deadly Sins, the Wrath family was in charge, and it was also the family that produced the Demon King.

And yet, here she was, as a mere applicant at Sytan.
