91. 2000 years of hatred

Misha teleported in front of the temple.

Thanks to us being connected through the magic of <Guys> whatever Misha sees with her demon eyes I can see as well.

Misha restlessly looks around but Eleonor can’t be seen.

—In here— (Eleonor)

A feeble voice using <Liikus> could be heard and using her demon eyes Misha traced the magic back into the temple causing her to blink a couple of times.

She must feel the foreign nature of the temple.

No magic power can be felt from inside. Eleonor can’t be seen at all even though she’s in the temple.

“Wait.” (Misha)

Putting her hand on the door Misha finds it locked with Lock Barrier <Digit>.

—Can you open it?— (Eleonor)

“No problem.” (Misha)

Misha looks at the lock using her demon eyes.

To turn the magic key you need to know the magic structure and need to accurately analyse the formula but for Misha that won’t be a problem.

In no time at all Misha analysed the lock and used the magic Unlock <Di> on it.

Putting her hands on the door Misha gives it a strong push and with a rusty groan, the door opens.

“……..” (Misha)

As soon as she entered Misha’s body felt heavy but she shook her head and moved forward.

Inside the temple is lined with pillars and in the depths is a pair majestic looking double doors. The floor, walls and ceiling were all covered in magic formations and a large number of holy water spheres were floating in the air.

In the centre of the room was a large floating ball of holy water and there floating inside was Eleonor.

Her whole body is radiating magic power. So much so her outline is blurred.

Uncountable magic characters were floating around her and on her body like she was wearing them.

“Eh? Is that Misha-chan….?” (Eleonor)

Elenor was surprised. Did she think I’d come?

“Instead of Arnos. Shouldn’t I?” (Misha)

“No, it’s fine.” (Eleonor)

Eleonor laughed.

“Can you take me to Zeshia?” (Eleonor)

“…….Stop her?” (Misha)

“Yup. Only I can stop her. I’m sorry but I can’t move by myself at the moment.” (Eleonor)

Misha tilts her head.

“Because you’re using magic?” (Misha)

“More precisely I am magic.” (Eleonor)

Misha blinked a couple of times.

Doesn’t seem like she understood what Eleonor said but it didn’t matter.

“I’ll take you.” (Misha)

Misha approaches Eleonor, touches the holy water sphere and a magic formation appears at her feet.

Are you going to use <Gatom>?

“I’ll be troubled if you do something so selfish.”

A voice echoed from the entrance of the temple and a bullet of light flew towards Misha.

It was <Teo Trias>

“Ice shield.” (Misha)

Misha instantly constructed a huge shield of ice using <Ibis>.

The strength of the improvised shield soon becomes known as the light bullet easily smashed through the shield but Misha immediately creates another ice shield as soon as one is broken.

The destructive power of <Teo Trias> vs Misha’s <Ibis> soon leads to Misha wining as her creation speed is quicker than the bullet can destroy.

The bullet of light soon disappears.

“Rule violation.” (Misha)

The person who appeared in the entrance of the temple was the headteacher Diego.

“Close that contemptible mouth mazoku. This is Gairadeite and I decide the rules. I’ll tell you now that what happens here won’t leak outside.” (Diego)

Diego fires another <Teo Trias> but this time it wasn’t at Misha but into the depths of the temple.

As soon as it hit the impressive-looking double doors it was absorbed by them.

The next moment a magic formation emerges on the door and begins emitting light.

“Open holy gate and release the seal.” (Diego)

The double doors slowly open and divine light containing a huge amount of magic power begins to leak through.

White, white and more white comes out.

It was a holy light that didn’t permit the existence of demons.

“Misha-chan!!” (Elenor)

Eleonor screams out as the holy light penetrates Misha’s anti-magic barrier and pierces her body.

Misha falls to her knees in extreme pain.

“In this sanctuary, the power of the mazoku turns to nothing. Forget <Gatom> you cant even use anti-magic can you? No help can come for you now.” (Diego)

“Stop it! Diego sensei! If you hurt Misha-chan I’ll never forgive you!!” (Eleonor)

“Shut up failure.” (Diego)

At Deigo’s voice, the holy water sphere around Eleonor turns white and her voice along with her figure disappears.

“Now then.” (Diego)

Diego stretches out a hand and light gathers there before becoming a sword.

Its the same holy sword Enhalle that Zeshia had.

“It seems your friend has messed us around a bit.” (Diego)

With a dark look on his face, Diego stands by Misha.

“Are you ready filthy mazoku?” (Diego)

Diego puts Enhalle’s blade against Misha’s cheek.

Due to the light leaking from the door Misha is unable to move.

“You should realise the grudge of the humans killed by you.” (Diego)

“…..Haven’t killed anyone…..” (Misha)

Did Diego find her words irritating? His face twists in disgust.

“It was 2000 years ago when mazoku fought human. Peaceful now. Everyone lives.” (Misha)

“Did you think we forgot just because time passed you rat!!” (Diego)

Deigo kicked Misha in the face as hard as he could sending her sprawling to the floor.

“…..Tsu……..” (Misha)

Grasping Enhalle Diego walks slowly towards Misha.

“Make a wall, separate them for a thousand years and everyone forgets? Everyone can live in peace while forgetting everything? Aah…… How arrogant your founder was. Never forget. Determined to never forget. 1000 years, 2000 years. Did you think your sins would be gone!!” (Diego)

Diego thrust Enhalle down and pierces Misha’s chest.

Blood spurts out and her magic power disappeared.

“…..Apologise for accident…..?” (Misha)

Even if someone dies the school will cover it up as an accident, however, its a big problem if a teacher kills a student, especially when they weren’t even involved in the test to begin with.

“What about it? All along I planned to have one of you mazoku die anyway. In fact—” (Diego)

With a smiled stained with insanity Diego continues.

“I don’t need you reviving either. Together with your origin, I’ll have you disappear. I’m sure the people of the demon king academy will be angry though.” (Diego)

A magic formation appears on the tip of the sword that’s piercing Misha’s chest.

Another <Teo Trias> was drawn.

“If you have a grudge then begrudge your ancestors and the demon king of tyranny you filthy mazoku.” (Diego)

Light gathers on the tip of Enhalle.

“<Teo Trias>!!” (Diego)

Along with his grudge, Deigo activates the magic.

The next moment a black aura appears and swallows Enhalle’s blade.

A jet black aura appears over Misha’s body protecting her.

“….Wh….at…..?” (Diego)

“Do you remember it? The wall that dived the world into four 2000 years ago. <Beno Ieven>” (Arnos)

After transferring here using <Gatom> I grasped Diego’s shoulder.

“….Holy……In this area……No mazoku magic should be usable.” (Diego)

“Oh? Should I give it a try then?” (Arnos)

For a moment the temple falls into total silence then Diego spins his body around and releases a <Teo Trias>.

“Die Mazoku!!” (Diego)

I wiped it out with my <demon eyes of ruin> and grabbed his face.

“Guu…….Guoooo……..!!” (Diego)

I lay emphasis on my fingers and you can hear the bones in this guys head creaking.

“I hope you liked playing around with your boring tricks and strategies. According to your revised history, you wanted to show humans stood above mazoku. That’s fine, it was still a peaceful method while getting all pleased with yourselves.” (Arnos)

A magic circle is drawn on Diego’s body and I inject power into it.

“But what did you try to do just now?” (Arnos)

Diego grabs my arm with both hands and tries to shake it off but I don’t budge at all.

“….Shut…up……” (Diego)

“I heard what you were going to do.” (Arnos)

I inject <Beno Ieven> directly into his body.

“Gu..aa…aa..aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!” (Diego)

Swallowed by the dark aura Diego disappears without a trace.

Cutting my finger with my thumbnail I let loose a drop of blood and cast Resurrection <Ingaru>.

Deigo’s body was revied.

“…Wha……” (Diego)

Diego stared at me in amazement.

“You think you can die without my permission? Even death will not free you from me, stupid human.” (Arnos)
