Doom

When Andras first learned that Ex was Berith, the first thing that came to mind was whether he had actually used a Demon Contract Scroll. It simply didn’t make sense for Ex to suddenly appear as a demon one day and announce that he was Andras’s subordinate. Andras had been suspicious at first, but Ex…

The trial was arranged with remarkable speed, taking only a single day to prepare. Whether Beatrice had laid the groundwork in advance or simply had no intention of giving him time to prepare, Ex found himself standing before the court before he'd even had a chance to catch his breath. The proceedings were open to…

News that Ex had been arrested on charges of demon worship and conspiring to rebel against the Empire spread across the entire nation in the blink of an eye, almost as if everyone had been waiting for it. Along with it, everything Ex had done until now was twisted into something meant to condemn him….

The Grand Festival was, in essence, the academy's biggest festival event. The gates of the academy, normally closed to outsiders, would be thrown open, allowing the public to enjoy all kinds of events organized by students and professors alike.

When he was little, his parents used to tell him this. “Always be careful with your words.” He had only been five years old at the time. He was far too young to understand everything contained in that brief warning, and the meaning itself had been too difficult for a child to grasp. Back then,…

Somewhere in the capital city of Vallon, inside a deserted house. “Aaagh-!!” Elia woke with a scream. The dream in which Lola, her only friend, and everyone else condemned her had been a nightmare too cruel for her fragile heart to endure. “…It wasn’t a dream.” And after waking, when she realized that nightmare had…

The academy was engulfed in chaos. Three students had vanished. Ex, notorious as the academy's weed. Elia, famous for her genius. And Hilde Borson, daughter of a Merchant Magnate. Circe was the one who revealed what had happened. “It was a demon attack.” Circe gave her answer before Darius, the Chairman, the Headmaster, and every…

“That damn spell again…!” Circe hurriedly cast a spell to resist it, but all she managed to do was slow it down by a fraction. Once again, Spatial Restraint bound everyone except Gremory. There was simply no way for any of them to resist this magic. Elia realized what Gremory was planning. “Gremory…!” “The Goddess…
