Chapter 90: Aftermath
'A single punch from them could wreck the Academy Domain, and to think there are people even stronger than the Dean and Vice president in this world'
Anthony thought as he clenched his fist, as he needed to get stronger fast.
Even his first intro attack that spanned the Academy Domain was just him abusing the infinite mana skill, even his attacks can't span that kind of distance under normal circumstances.
Although he has made progress with his Mana zone, he still had a lot of other things to study ranging from the knowledge of his bloodline and physique to his own aura.
Anthony sighed as he decided there is no need to rush things, he would get there in time when he is supposed to.
Battles were still going on and explosions kept resounding everywhere.
But none of the demons dared to approach Anthony after his first and second display of power either due to fear or due to being occupied by their own opponents.
As people fought, they all heard the sound of crashing and cracking, and they all stopped in their tracks and looked up.
***CRASHHH***CRRAAACCKK**
As space broke due to the separate space shattering, the Dean's and Vice president's presence became known to all.
Everyone instantly became happy as they saw the Dean and Vice president, finally they could be freed from their suffering and sorrows.
But the Demons felt the opposite emotions the rest felt, fear gripped them.
Their heart throbbed as they felt their blood run cold and a chill running down their spine.
They all wanted to runaway immediately, they couldn't be caught there.
The fact that the Dean and Vice president were both here meant their Lords were dead.
None of them had any single thought of revenge in their mind or heart, they just came here as they were forced to battle and bring everything to ruins.
This is the thing about demons, unlike other species that can be loyal to other people.
The Demons knew nothing about loyalty.
Their only loyalty was to strength and that's all, and it was forced loyalty since the stronger person could kill them if they defiled any orders they were given.
So the demons also live in a 'stronger fist has the biggest word' world, but their is just way more bloody and outrageous.
All demons immediately abandoned their opponents and made a run for it with the hopes of running away and surviving.
Deep down, beneath those useless hopes, they knew that escaping was just wishful thinking but they made a break for it, just in case they could make it.
The people fighting didn't bother chasing the running demons and just watched them run for their lives.
The Dean moved mana and wanted to erase them, but the vice president stopped him, as she decided to handle it.
The vice president's voice sounded in Tiara's head as she stared at her Master and the Dean.
'How much you can see and learn from this depends on you my disciple'
Tiara instantly entered total concerntration mode as she removed any other thoughts from her mind.
The Blood Empress was about to teach her something even in a battlefield like this, this was a hard to comeby opportunity.
Then the vice president lowered her mana control and brought it down to just a little level above Tiara's, then she controlled the blood on the battlefield with minimal mana as the bloods on the battlefield moved and formed thin blood threads that danced in the sky.
Then the blood threads moved with a fast speed after all escaping demons as it literally passed through the small body pores present on their chest, the blood threads wrapped around the demon hearts and contracted causing their hearts to cut in countless pieces.
They all lost their vital signs and fell from the skies as they dropped like manna from heaven.
Tiara's blood red eyes shone brightly as she marvelled at such control.
Although the vice president was only teaching Tiara, but the rest of the class who could learn something benefited from seeing the mana control display and the way it interacted to form an object.
Of course seeing was one things, learning was another things totally.
"Even using the Academy's worst times to teach your disciple, what a Master you are"
The Dean's voice sounded in the vice president's ears as she just smirked.
The Dean lifted his hands as he tapped on the Academy wrist watch on his wrist as he sent out a bunch of instructions.
Various professors and assistant professors in various departments, even those who aren't professors received a notification on their wrist watch.
They all read the message and immediately started moving based on the orders given.
Students and various people of varying species were taken to buildings that survived and started healing them (of course this is for free as the demons attacked the academy, so they didn't have to pay points).
The mana chefs went into overtime as they started cooking mana dishes that could help them fill their stomach and heal hidden injuries.
People in construction department started moving to bring back the Academy buildings to its normal state.
Many people died in this battle due to their weakness, some awakened the drive and thirst for power they didn't know they had before due to their weakness and ignorance.
Some mourned over their fallen friends or family member, some cursed the demons and swore revenge (even when they knew they had no hope of revenge).
Many were indifferent to the deaths that occurred, because they were already used to death, as death in this world was common than vegetables.
Even the indifferent ones were angry, but not at the deaths of people or anything.
But for the fact that the demons had enough guts to attack the Academy; their haven.
Some professors and assistant professors also fell during the battle, but the other professor who survived didn't have any emotions on their face.
But deep down, anger boiled in almost everyone's heart due to the demons courageous attitude.
But even in pains there are gains.
People working for the Academy were about to make huge amount of money (Academy points, which can be converted to quarks or mana crystals, but not vice versa).
Those whose services were needed instantly drank healing and stamina potions as they couldn't wait in line to be healed or they might miss such rich opportunities.
So anybody that has any work to do after this carnage would be paid double their original price, except those that insulted Klaus earlier since they are still under punishment, so they missed such golden chance.
They could only grit their teeth in anger and blame the demons for not attacking a thousand years later or earlier.
They didn't dare to blame Klaus, they already lost a minor rank before due to this, nobody was ready to take any chances again and test how far Klaus' tolerance goes.
Miraculously, none of the students died during the attack, how ironic.
One of demons great plans was to wipe out the golden generation before they could ripen, but this plan failed, but at least tney still took many lives with them.
And also they already killed two hundred students earlier during the first six months.
Anthony and the rest who didn't need healing just looked around as various people flew and ran around trying to bring a sense of order to the carnage that is present here.
Some of the student who stood at the side that were just recovering their mana looked at Anthony from the corner of their eyes with various lights flashing their eyes as their thoughts remained unknown.
Even the storm brothers who were already impressive enough to take down multiple Master ranked demons were shocked.
Anthony simply shook his head, he didn't care what their thoughts were, though he could find out if he wanted, but he won't.
There is always fun in the unknown, if the unknown is dangerous he would runaway and come for revenge later, if later was too far, he would send his father, if his father isn't strong enough he would send his grandfather.
He couldn't go around reading people's mind every time at the slightest inconvenience.
That's no different than paranoia.
.....
THE SEER ROOM
The seer munched on his apple as he nodded at the sight he just witnessed.
Such live matches were indeed exciting.
'But would have been more exciting if I could spy on that man called Klaus, but at least the demons didn't disappoint, even though they ended up dead'
The seer thought.
Then he looked at the recording of the fights he recorded and smiled, then he then thought of something and smiled even more.
"Should I exert more force into my spying"
The seer thought as he really wanted to spy on Klaus.
"Sighs.. I better not test my luck or that man might just kill me for overstepping"
"But to think that boy possessed the Time element, even his father, mother and grandfather weren't this talented"
The seer said as he looked at Anthony.
