The Narrow-Eyed Villain of the Demon Academy

Bares Family

Among the seven deadly sins, the high-ranking family of the Demon World that symbolizes Pride.

If my guess is correct, this must be the secret realm owned by the Bares Family.

‘This situation is…’

There is no answer……

It wouldn’t be strange to die as soon as I leave this Secret Relm

If I were to weigh the probability of survival and death, the latter would overwhelmingly prevail.

‘What should I do?’

Although the Demons are weaker compared to the original Adel or the main characters, that’s a story that will happen far into the future.

‘Escaping must be the only way to survive.’

There was no chance of winning.

Not only is the remaining amount of mana ridiculously low, but there’s no way I can defeat the Bares Family in my current state.

The only way to survive is to run away as fast as I can.

That’s why it was clear what I had to do now.

“Let’s loot the treasure chest.”

The black dragon chest right in front of me.

I had to loot this chest no matter what.

Since it’s the secret realm of the family, there must be the secret treasure of the Bares Family inside this box, and there might be an ‘artifact’ that I can use to escape this place.

I’m sure I’ll be chased because I entered the secret territory of the Bares Family anyway, so I have no choice but to take advantage of it.

“Should I open it?”

I put my hand on the box.

Fortunately, there was no security device on the box.

As if someone was telling me to take it…….

Well, it must be my imagination.

Creak-.

I shook off my thoughts and opened the chest.

An unpleasant friction sound rang in my ears, and the contents of the box were revealed.

“Why is this here…….”

And I froze on the spot.

There was something in the box that I could not have imagined.

A puddle made of black liquid.

‘Water?’

No, not quite…….

Squish.

It was elastic like silicone and very sticky like glue.

For some reason, it’s a texture that gives me goosebumps.

‘This is a treasure?’

I was more surprised by the fact that the treasure that this secret territory was trying to protect was something like the body of this slime.

Is there any special power in this liquid?

……I was thinking that.

*Wiggle-.*

The black liquid in the box moved.

The liquid that popped out of the box in an instant rushed towards my face.

“Huh?”

The moment I opened my mouth in surprise.

The black liquid…

“Ugh!”

It invaded my mouth, squeezed through my throat, and began to tear at my esophagus.

I gagged repeatedly due to the foreign sensation in my throat.

“Ugh……”

I vomited, and yellow stomach acid poured out.

But the black liquid did not come out.

I was groaning in pain in my throat and stomach when suddenly.

Ugh-.

A splitting headache made me shudder.

I didn’t even have time to figure out what was going on before the pain consumed me.

Throb-.

The headache gradually worsened, and black veins began to bulge on my forehead.

My vision began to darken, and my consciousness faded.

The crossroads of life and death.

I could tell that I was standing at that crossroad, even though no one had told me.

“Whew.”

I exhaled.

I needed to cool my head.

If the pain continued any longer, I wouldn’t be surprised if I fainted or went into shock.

How much time passed like that?

Swoosh.

The veins that had bulged on my forehead subsided.

Even the pain that had been pounding in my head.

I could finally breathe.

‘What the hell is going on?’

I thought, catching my breath.

I really thought I was going to die.

What the hell was in that box?

Maybe the box itself was a trap.

My headache was definitely gone.

My head started to hurt again.

No.

It actually hurts like hell?

“What the…!”

Pain in my eye.

I thought my left eyeball was being pulled out.

But this time, it wasn’t just a feeling.

Flap-.

My left eye burst.

My vision went black, and an incomparable pain washed over me…

And finally.

I lost consciousness.
