Shadow Monarch: Heroines Could Hear My Thoughts?!



Chapter 210- Descension (Part 1)

Emilia was in a dilemma. No, calling it a dilemma was an understatement. On one hand, she had Rin, her disciple and a person she cherished greatly. She didn't want to see him get harmed or killed.

However, on the other hand, Rin had lied to her and turned out to be one of the creatures that she swore to destroy. He had the powers to rule those creatures no less! What should she do? Should she help him escape? Should she simply follow the rules and capture him?

"3 months... I can only hide her for 3 months. After that, I don't think I will be able to." Emilia said as she clenched her teeth tightly.

"Thank you so much, master. This is a debt I will never forget." He said as he turned to look at Elise one last time.

"I know that you might hate me because of this and that's fine. Just know that I love you so much, Elise. More than anything else." Rin said before he moved his hand quickly and struck the side of her neck, making her lose consciousness. Tears had already welled up in Elise's eyes even as she fell down motionless.

"R...in." She murmured one last time.

Hearing her weak voice, Rin felt his heart being torn to pieces. However, she shook his head and carried her gently before handing her to Emilia.

"I will go in that direction. While I make them focus on me, use the other route to escape." Rin explained his rough plan.

"... Don't die, Rin." Emilia said.

"I don't intend to. See you soon, Master."

After that, Rin vanished from her sight.

At the same time, the news of what happened spread across the whole academy like wildfire. Everyone talked about what happened and especially about Rin. No one knew what kind of powers he possessed.

However, as soon as the news reached the floor masters, the whole administration was turned upside down. They were the few people that knew what the power of darkness meant.

The news was soon delivered to the Higher-Ups.

"Damn that kid!! He tricked us!!" One of them said.

"It's all your fault for allowing that kid to run away!!" Another added as he pointed at the same person that struck that deal with Rin.

"Now isn't the time to throw blame at each other! We need to capture him now! To think we will end up allowing a filthy demon into the sacred castle! Send this to every floor master and also to every student in the top 10. Rin Silvereye must be caught at all costs!!"

***

'I need to reach the gates quickly. I doubt I even have a few minutes of time left.' He thought as he jumped from one building to another at top speed.'

"I can't use my summon either since it will only catch attention."

At that moment, he sensed a strong presence approaching him at top speed. The sheer strength of the aura was enough to send a chill down Rin's spine.

Instinctively, he submerged himself in the shadows before the aura reached him and quickly continued to move.

'Letum?!' Looking up, he saw the man he was talking to merely a few hours ago.

He was staring down at Rin coldly from above.

"I'm disappointed, Rin Silvereye. To think your idealistic sense of justice will turn out to be a mere lie. Did you have your fun mocking us for being saddened to lose our fellow companions to you, demons?"

"Wait! No, Letum! You are misunderstanding!"

"No, I understand now far better than anyone else. You have truly crafted a meticulous plan."

'Tsk, he won't listen!' Without stopping, Rin stopped trying to persuade Letum as he knew it was pointless.

"You are going nowhere," Letum said as he followed after Rin at top speed.

'Shit! I can't let him reach me!'

Looking around him, he decided to enter one of the buildings nearby. Then, he continued through it, approaching the gate.

"Tsk, he's trying to escape. Close the doors!" Letum clicked his tongue and ordered the guards through the receiver.

Immediately, the gates were closed, and tens of guards stood in front of them, guarding tightly against any approaching threat. They already received the news that Rin was a demon and that he possessed the power to control the shadows.

At the same time, the other floor masters and the high-rankers reached the floor and spread across at top speed, trying to locate Rin.

'Tsk... I can already feel countless presences approaching me.' Rin thought as he dashed from one building to another.

Although they can easily beat him, Rin knew that these people won't dare to destroy buildings filled with people merely to catch him. That will be a stronger hit to the Academy's reputation than anyone could predict.

So, that small detail allowed Rin to finally reach the gates of the academy.

'They already closed the entrance. Well, that was predicted. But, they truly underestimate me.' He thought as he summoned his bird summon.

'It's going to be dangerous but I think I can make it.' After that, he quickly mounted on top of it and flew up in the air.

"Look! Something is up there!!" A guard pointed out, catching the other's attention.

"That's him! Catch him!"

As they aimed their arrows toward Rin, he quickly flew higher to avoid them as he continued his way through the small gap between the buildings and the huge wall.

'A little bit more!' He thought as he looked behind in case anyone was approaching him.

"You are going nowhere." Shockingly, a voice came from ahead.

'Oh no!'

Letum, his worst possible encounter at this exact moment was floating in front of him, closing the way.

'I can't change the course at this speed!' He thought as he tried to find a way out of this situation.

"I have no other choice..." Looking down, Rin pulled out his blood dagger and then channeled his mana through it.

"Blood slash!" Aiming at the guards beneath him, he sent a blood slash toward them.

"Bastard!" Letum's eyes widened slightly as he quickly flew down and stopped the attack. Those few seconds were more than enough for Rin to pass through.

"I'm genuinely sorry." Rin murmured to himself.

He knew that Letum will not allow for that many guards to die so he chose to stop the attack. Granted, it was a low-handed move but Rin had no other choice.

"I'm close..."

As Rin crossed the wall, suddenly, he felt a strong pain assault his back and he found himself falling down like a meteor, at top speed.

"Ugh!!"

*BOOOM*

Hitting the ground roughly, he coughed a few times, trying to gasp for breath before he stood up again and looked at what hit him. Right in front of him, a mature girl stood looking at him with a cold expression.

"...So... rophi?" He murmured her name with a shocked expression.

"Rin..." The girl murmured back as she tightened her grip on the teddy bear in her hands.
