The Survival of the Third-rate Villain-Chapter 152 - - The Invasion! [3]
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM—!!!!
Hearing such a strong explosion—
"Hmm?"
-Huh?
Bryan and the noble demon turned their heads toward its direction.
And because the barrier was made by him—
-’It broke...’
The demon immediately realized what had happened, a deep frown dawning on his face.
-’Who did it?’
He asked in his head.
But just then—
"Don’t get distracted now."
The demon suddenly heard a voice in front of him!
-?!
He was shocked.
And when he looked forward—
Pat-
He saw Bryan.
His right palm was resting against the demon’s chest.
-’When?!’
The demon was baffled.
His instincts screamed at him—
Danger!
But before he could even react—
"[Blast]"
Bryan muttered that.
BOOOM—!
-GARGH...?!
Then a crushing force erupted from Bryan’s palm!
The demon felt the impact explode through his chest—
Like a cannon fired point-blank!
FWOOOSH—!
His body was sent flying backward!
BAAM!
His back crashed into the concrete wall, the ground trembling from the force.
But—
Fwooosh—
Amidst the dust and debris—
-Wow, you’re really strong... Stronger than the three before.
A voice echoed.
Fwop-
The demon immediately got back on his feet—unharmed.
Casually.
Like nothing had happened.
Fwip—
He brushed the dust off his clothes, his expression unfazed.
"You’re sturdy, huh."
Bryan mumbled, observing the demon with mild curiosity.
"..."
-...
The two of them locked eyes.
Neither of them moved.
Neither of them spoke.
The tension thickened—
Then suddenly—
SWISH—
The demon vanished where he stood!
And then—
FWISH—!
He reappeared right in front of Bryan!
FWOOOSH—!!
His claws, surging with demonic energy, tore through the air—
Aiming straight for Bryan’s face!
But—
Fwip—
Bryan simply tilted his head to the side.
Dodging it effortlessly.
Nonchalantly.
-...?!
The demon’s eyes twitched.
He was fast—so fast—
But Bryan made it look easy.
As if he had seen the attack coming a mile away.
Then the demon saw it—
"..."
Bryan was staring at him, his face emotionless.
And at that moment—
"[Graviton Push]"
Bryan mumbled that.
FWOOOSH—!!!
-Huh?!
A crushing force slammed into the demon’s body!
BAAAM—!!
He was flung backward—again!
Swoosh~
A powerful shockwave rippled through the area as his body collided with the wall!
Dust exploded outward.
Debris scattered.
Cracks spread across the concrete.
And from within the cloud of destruction—
Fwish—
-...
The demon emerged.
Unscathed.
But—
This time, his expression was different.
His confidence wavered.
A flicker of uncertainty flashed in his eyes.
He was confused.
Unsure of what had just happened.
And seeing that—
Fwip—
Bryan shrugged his shoulders.
"Never seen Telekinesis Magic before?"
He asked.
A smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.
Bryan Blackwood...
He was a master in [Telekinesis Magic].
He didn’t think that there was a need to hide it.
Because Bryan was just that confident in his strength.

...
As that was happening—
"The barrier... It’s starting to close..."
Raye’s eyes locked onto the grayish barrier.
The massive hole Jerusha and Lena had created—
It was slowly sealing itself back up!
"I need to go now."
He said urgently, turning toward Jerusha.
"Where are you headed anyway?"
Jerusha asked, curious.
And as Raye got into position to dash off again—
"To where the Old Man and the others are."
Raye mumbled that in seriousity.
Then—
BAM—!
He kicked off the ground!
His figure blurred as he propelled himself forward, vanishing into the distance.
And hearing his words—
"...!"
Jerusha’s eyes widened.
That was enough—
Enough for her to understand what was happening!
"..."
Her expression turned serious.
Her resolve hardened.
And with a determined look on her face—
Fwish—
Jerusha shifted her stance, preparing to take off after Raye.
’I’m coming with you.’
She said in her head.
But just as she was about to soar—
"Urgh...!"
Jerusha heard a groan.
Pained.
Strained.
And instantly—
Fwish—
Her gaze snapped toward the source of it.
Then when she saw what was it—
"...!"
Jerusha froze.
It was Lena.
She was struggling, being surrounded by three demons.
A demon loomed over her—
Behind her—
And on her Right—
And what’s more...
She’s protecting roughly 50 students within her mana barrier, so she can’t cast a proper spell or fight properly!
And seeing the situation Lena was in.
"Tsk...!"
Jerusha gritted her teeth.
She wanted to help.
But—
She also wanted to go after Raye.
She wanted to assist him in whatever he was planning to do.
Conflicted—
Jerusha’s fists clenched.
Her breathing quickened.
Fwish—
She looked at Raye.
His figure was getting smaller.
He was already far—
And getting farther fast.
For a few moments—
"..."
Jerusha stood still, not saying anything, with a complicated expression on her face.
She just watched Raye’s back.
And then, resolving herself—
’I trust you, Raye. I’ll leave it to you.’
She declared that in her head.
And with her decision set—
FWOOSH—

Jerusha flew toward Lena instead!
’I’ll go and help you as soon as everything here is settled!’
She added internally, thinking about Raye.
And soon—
BOOM—!
Jerusha landed beside Lena, her presence commanding attention!
"Huh?"
"...?!"
-Hm?
All eyes turned to her.
The students—
Lena—
And even the demons!
"Jerusha..."
Lena breathed out, relieved but still tense.
The demon, however—
They grinned mischievously.
-Another one for us to kill and have fun with, huh?
One of them sneered, stepping forward—
The air around that demon was vibrating with malicious mana.
But Jerusha—
"..."
She wasn’t fazed at all.
As a matter of fact—
She confidently shut her eyes!
And in the next instant—
FWOOOOOSH—!!!!
A violent gust erupted around her!
The atmosphere twisted.
Wind howled—
The ground trembled beneath her sheer presence!
"?!"
"..."
The students were surprised, while Lena was observing silently.
-What’s that?
A different demon asked.
Then—
Fwip-
Jerusha’s eyes snapped open.
And with a commanding voice—
"[Tempest Wave!]"
She shouted that!
FWOOOOOOOOOOOSH—!!!!
A massive gale burst forth—
Like a raging storm unleashed!
And that storm...
SWOOOOSH—!!!
-HUUUHHH?!!
-W-WHAT?!
-KEEEEEK!!
It blasted the demons away!
Their bodies flung through the air—
And then—
BOOOOM—!!
-Kak!?
-Gurgh!!
-Ugh!?
They slammed onto the ground, groaning in pain!
And in that moment, not missing such opportunity—
"Run toward the exit!"
Jerusha exclaimed, her voice rang out.
Loud. Clear.
"Lena and I opened a path—GO TO SAFETY!"
She added with urgency.
And at her words—
"Ah—!"
"R-Right...!"
"Run!!"
The students snapped out of their stupor!
And without hesitation—
BAM!
All of them began sprinting toward the exit—
Fear gripping their hearts—
But hope was igniting their will, making their bodies move!
"..."
Lena looked at Jerusha.
Her gaze—grateful.
She was thankful for the help—
Even though it looks just a little, it meant a lot.
Moving on, looking back at her—
Wink—
Jerusha simply smiled and winked at Lena.
And just then—
BAM!
A loud, heavy impact shook the ground around them.
"..."
Lena’s ears rang, she frowned in annoyance—
FwOOoooOoosh~
The air trembled.
And when Jerusha and Lena turned their heads—
They saw them.
The three demons—
Tap- tap- tap—
They were slowly walking toward them.
They were all grinning slyly.
Their presence were menacing.
-That hurt a little... Grrrr...
One of the demons growled.
-T-The other humans are g-getting away... Kek...!
Another one stammered, its grotesque face twitching in irritation.
-Tch... Let’s just kill these two first—then go after them.
The third demon sneered, cracking its neck.
The tension thickened.
The ground beneath them hummed with energy.
Lena and Jerusha—
They remained still, not doing or saying anything.
"..."
They glanced at each other.
No words needed.
No hesitation.
And then—
Fwip-
In unison, Jerusha and Lena nodded their heads.
And immediately—
Fwish—
They turned their heads back to the demons.
Their eyes—sharp.
Focused.
Determined.
And in that moment—
They silently agreed.
They would fight together.
No holding back.
No running away.
And this time—
They were aiming to take down the three demons.
FWOOSH—
Jerusha’s purple-colored mana surged. Read latest stories on novelbuddy
The air around her twisted—her Wind Spirit Magic whirling violently.
SWOOOOSH~
Lena did the same—her own bluish mana crackling, sparks dancing along her fingertips.
And seeing them charging for something—
-Nuh uh.
BAM!!
SWOOSH—!
The three demons immediately lunged at them, attempting to stop their attacks!
Their grotesque claws ripping through the air, their eyes burning with malice!
The two saw them coming.
Fwish—!
So Jerusha and Lena immediately responded, they split ways!
-Hmm?
-What?
The demons were confused who to go after.
And not missing that opportunity—
Jerusha’s gaze sharpened.
"Lena!"
She called out.
And Lena immediately understood what to do.
Jerusha swung her arm sideways—
FWOOOOOOOSH—!!
Then an immense tornado erupted from her hands, twisting with ferocity!
The violent winds swept up one of the demons—spinning it mid-air!
-GAAHHHH?! WAIT!!!
It didn’t really hurt the demon, but now they have one less enemy to worry about.
And then—
"Now!"
Jerusha shouted that.
And waiting for her signal—
"[Arc Lightning!]"
Lena cast that spell as she thrust her hand forward!
And in an instant—
FWOOZZZZTH—!
A bolt of blue lightning CRASHED into the airborne demon that Jerusha sent flying!
BAAAAAAANG—!!
A blinding explosion erupted!
-GRAAAAAAHHHH!!!?
The demon screamed in agony as it was blasted into the ground, its body convulsing!
But—
The two demons were still rushing at them!
They didn’t care about their comrade that just fell!
Jerusha and Lena’s expressions hardened.
Because they know—
This fight was far from over!
Fwish-!
The two prepared themselves.
Jerusha and Lena were mages, all they have is their vast mana pool and strong spells.
But on the other hand—
Demons are known to be physically strong and very good at magic!
In short—
The two of them would be in trouble if the fight will be dragged into close combat!
