“…!? This sound is––!” Said Mirin as she looked at the big shadow covered by dusts and dirt.

When the dust dissipates, they could now see the creature clearly.

A humungous being as big as the cyclop Lyle defeated before was standing while holding a big axe.

His lower body is that of a human, but his upper body is a cow. His mouth and nose was letting out smoke and his eyes are blood red.

“ROOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRR!”

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!?”

“I-is that a M-minotaur?”

“W-Why would a m-minotaur suddenly appear in a place like this––?! Is that what we should be f-fighting? I thought it’s only a C-rank but that’s an A-rank demonic beast”

“Is that…, a bull type monster recorded in the books that was only found inside a dungeon!? A Minotaur!?”

The entire student is terrified upon seeing the ominous beast. Some were screaming, some were crying.

Most of the students are still D-rank or C-rank; they can’t hope to defeat a ferocious A-rank demonic beast.

“Everyone, calm down! Students don’t attack, prioritize on escaping! Gather without panicking and take shelter in the school building!” Mirin ordered.

Although she looked calm from the outside, she was actually screaming inside her mind.

‘I can defeat it but there are still many students here, I might involve them! Damn what the hell is happening here?’

Mirin is an A-rank mage, so she is confident that she can defeat it, but she was afraid she might involved her students on the fight.

She has no choice but to wait for either the reinforcement to come or for the students to safely escape.

“Now run! Escape from this place!”

All the students were frantically running away while crying and weeping.

“Aaaaaaaaaaah!”

However, the situation turns to worse as two students charged at the Minotaur.

Because of this, the entire student stopped from running and turned their attention at the two students. Seeing it they widened their eyes because they recognized them.

One is the princess of the Malic kingdom; Princess Misuzu Malican and the other one is the prince of the Zorc kingdom; Belial Zorc who is holding a huge sword.

“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU BOTH DOING!? COME BACK HERE! IT’S NOT A BEAST YOU BOTH CAN DEFEAT!” Enraged by

their sudden reckless actions, Mirin couldn't help but screamed in fury.

“Don’t worry tachr, if we fight it together, we can defeat it!” Misuzu said, her voice filled with confidence.

“Yes sensei! Most of all, this is supposedly our training, we better do it!” Belial added.

“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING, COME BACK HERE IMMEDIATELY!”

Mirin was now burning with rage.

‘Just what the heck are these two saying; they are just C-rank mages while the opponent is an A-rank? That’s like throwing away your lives’ She cursed in her mind.

But the two didn’t obey, instead they charged at the Minotaur without hesitation.

“Flash of an instant, instant of flash; give thee speed rival that of gods ”

Shorted incantation.

Belial used shorted incantation.

Mana enveloped his legs giving him flash like speed, making him moved faster.

“Flood that sweep everything, gives me power to overwhelm my enemy ”

Just like Belial, Misuzu also did a shorted incantation. Blue tidal waves emerged around the Minotaur.

Belial suddenly appeared beside the monster and strike him in an instant then vanished afterward.

“Roooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaar”

The minotaur let out a thunderous roar.

If the attack hurts him or not, no one knows.

Watching the spectacle, the students started cheering.

‘HO HO HO~~ see the magnificent me! Now praise me, worshipped me! HO HO HO~~’ Misuzu inwardly felt delighted.

While Belial was grinning from right ear to his left. ‘Hahaha an A-rank demonic beast? So weak? Maybe it’s already

over, hahaha see that! I am the strongest! Now look at me’ He thought while turning around to look for Feme.

But sadly she was nowhere to be seen.

“Fools! It’s not over yet, don’t turn your back on it!” Mirin shouted, quickly running towards them.

Just as Mirin said that, the Minotaur stood up like it was nothing and raised its axe.

Belial and Misuzu were dumbfounded and can only look at it stupidly.

BOOOOOOOOM!!

The axe was swung down on them.

Fortunately, they were not hit directly and were only hit by the shockwave of the attack that sent them flying.

“RooooooaaaaaaaaarRRR!”

“KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!”

Again the students screamed while running outside the arena, but because of the rubble blocking the exit, they

started to sit down on the ground while crying.

The Minotaur growled.

As if smiling, it charged at the nearest Belial lying in the rubble. It again raised his axe and swung on him, but fortunately this time, Mirin arrived where Belial was while slightly gasping out of air due to running.

“Earth that protects, Earth that gives life, make a wall that stands high ”

She immediately chanted.

Wall made of earth rise in front of her. But maybe because it was too slow, the Minotaur instead of the axe, used his

hand to swap the incomplete earth wall, as if swatting a mosquito.

Unguarded, Mirin was sent flying from the unexpected attack of the Minotaur.

“Run---“ Her last words before she was hit but it seems Belial couldn’t hear her because instead of running, he was just sitting there not moving.

“Hiii----“ He shrieked as he saw the Minotaur’s burning red eyes.

The raised axe was now gliding down on him.

But before it hits, the Minotaur’s hand shifted slightly not hitting Belial, as a shadow hit it. But because the man used his entire body to rammed on the Minotaur’s hand he was lying in the rubble.

“Run now, brother--!” The shadow figure said.

From looking at him, he was the guy with two horns in his forehead and animal fur in his arms and bodies that caught Lyle’s attention before.

“Hiiii-----!” Belial then now stood up. He then run in the opposite direction, away from him and the Minotaur.

The displeased Minotaur, maybe because interfering with his fun, was now glaring at the lying student. This time again smoke came out from his nose and mouth as it raised his axe to kill the interfering student.

Mirin who was lying in the rubble, saw it and desperately tried to stand up.

“Stop!” She screamed.

Staggering and trembling because of the pain, she still held her ground and stood up. She now started to chant but still she already knew that she wouldn't make it.

Then suddenly….

A snap of finger resounded from the arena.

As the Minotaur swing his axe down, a crimson dragon with snake-like body suddenly appeared out of nowhere and coiled around the Minotaur’s body. Then it squeezed its body while the dragon’s mouth opened and swallowed the

Minotaur’s head. Then….

KABOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

The crimson dragon suddenly exploded, leaving a jet-black charcoaled Cow's head and huge crimson flames enveloping its massive body.

“Roooooooooaaaaaaaarrr!”

*Plop*

The Minotaur let out a scream before falling while down while still burning.

The entire student present was silent. Even Mirin who didn’t know what just happened could only stare at the sudden spectacle with wide-eyes.
