I Became a Murderer in the Academy.

Recently, I’d been gathering information on the Demon Lord’s army, but this was the last situation I wanted to encounter.

I steadied my staggering body and faced him.

What reason did a member of the Demon Lord’s army have to come here?

Our gazes met, red against red.

“So you’re the monster who killed Seir.”

The demon spoke.

“...”

I had no reason to deny it, so I nodded.

Should I use magic to read his memories?

No, I didn’t have the energy for that right now. All I wanted was to drink blood as soon as possible.

I needed to get him out of the way and have my meal. If I held back any longer, I’d be repeating what happened last year.

This time, I asked, my voice shaky from the strain.

“...What do you want?”

“It’s strange indeed. That Seir would fall to such a small girl.”

“Are you looking for a fight?”

I could send him to join his friends quickly.

Serthia, who had been the strongest being on the continent after the Demon Lord’s death, was defeated by me. Though cursed and unable to fight properly, I had no doubt she was the strongest.

Among humans, demons, and all living things. I’d realized that after our fight.

But since I had managed to kill even Serthia, I wasn’t afraid of anyone anymore.

A member of the Demon Lord’s army?

A mere underling, perhaps?

“I misspoke. I apologize.”
