My Magical System

Rowdy could not believe that such a small and pebble opponent was able to knock him.

Unbeknown to Rowdy, Eman was already preparing for another attack.

Rowdy hastily got up. He wasn’t afraid of him; he just wanted to crush him as soon as possible.

He believed he was unbeatable. Not even cutting his head could kill him. That was the power bestowed to them by the Bandit Lord.

‘The Ten Sacrileges are unbeatable!’ Exclaimed Rowdy in mind.

The pain he felt was just so trivial. It wasn’t enough to make him unconscious.

.....

After Rowdy got up on his feet, he saw his opponent wielding a sword once again, and in his right hand, there was another object that looked the same as the one recently but also looked different.

“Damn you, that’s painful! You should know what the expense of your doing is!” Rowdy said threateningly, without giving an interest to the object in Eman’s hand.

Eman had no idea why this one was yet to transform into a creepy look like the other Demons he encountered.

But probably, he was still looking down on him. A smirk happened on his mouth after spraying holy water on his Killing Sword, then aimed the water gun at his opponent.

The opponent was talking some threatening words after getting up, but he had no time to waste listening to useless remarks.

“Bastard! Prepare to die!” Rowdy roared as he strode thunderously towards Eman.

“No, never again...” he muttered.

‘I’ve died once. So never again,’ whispered Eman in his mind. Then he pulled the plastic trigger when the distance was enough for the water gun’s range.

Fwoosh! Fwoosh!

Seeing the spraying liquid traversing towards him, Rowdy sneered at it.

“Bwahahaha, idiot! What can the water do to hurt me?!” He asked in a sarcastic, rough voice.

Before the water could land on him, Rowdy reflexively crossed his arms. With this action from him, the holy water landed on his arms.

Although he wasn’t afraid of any attacks, this time, his intuition was screaming for danger.

Rowdy was hard-headed. But he trusted his intuition. Right after the holy water landed on his arms, Rowdy’s face twitched bitterly. Out of a sudden, a burning sensation was on his arms, to where the liquid hit him.

“Wha–!”

“GuwahHHHH!!!” Rowdy screamed in pain. Then he saw the skin on his arms started to burn. No! It wasn’t just a simple burning. It seemed like his skins were decaying.

“Motherfu****! What have you done?!” He asked in an angry voice, in which the red veins were surfacing on his eyes.

Although he was not an exorcist, he felt he was one. He had no idea why the people in this world were so problematic against demons when holy water was so effective against them.

He was baffled as to why no soldier was carrying such an extremely valuable item. He heard that there were churches in the empire. So, they should have holy water in that place, right? He wondered.

Maybe he would try asking the emperor next. Since he was now able to command an army, the emperor was probably looking at him as someone like a higher rank soldier.

However, he was only an academy student. Wait, that academy wasn’t even an ordinary academy. For Eman, the Magical Academy was like a Military Academy. Perhaps, it is.

Meanwhile, Rowdy was screaming in pain.

“GARRGGGHHH! Why can’t I heal it?!” He was bewildered that his regeneration ability could not heal it.

Now his flesh was showing after his skin was decaying. Rowdy was sweating profusely. But it wasn’t enough to kill him!

His figure also had started to change into a pinkish figure with a long tail, a pair of horns, hollowed eyes with red pupils, and uneven razor-sharp teeth. On his back, there was a spiky spinal cord.

It didn’t take a long time for him to transform. He looked more intimidating than the one a while ago.

Around them, the other people got the shivers on their spines as they were watching the person who suddenly transformed into a creepy entity! Correction, it was not a person anymore! It was a monster! A creepy one!

“What the hell is that?!” One of the soldiers asked.

“Eh!?” A bandit stared at it while shuddering. He also had no idea what it was. But when he noticed the large beast tattoo on the monster’s shoulder. “T, That’s boss Rowdy! How did he become like that?!”

It suddenly disappeared from their sight. “Eh? Where did he go?!” The bandit and the soldier who was trying to push each other stopped their fight and glanced around. But soon their battle resumed. The bandit tried to sneak an attack but the soldier was able to notice it and block it.

The soldier then followed with a kick to the stomach that caused the bandit to be knocked and had his back crash on the ground. The soldier did not waste more time and leaped to finish him with a stab.

“What!?”

Before the bandit could react, the sword pierced his chest. Blood sprayed like a fountain after the soldier retreated his sword. He wiped the sweat on his forehead. But before he could celebrate his success, he was bumped by a beast from behind him.

His body rolled many times like a rolling log.

Not far from him, after the newly transformed Rowdy disappeared, Eman glanced around, but he could not find the demon. His perception perceived a malicious aura above.

With gushing saliva, Rowdy leaped high into the air and made a smashing attack.

From firing, he decided to evade by rolling to his side. This enemy was more durable than the other one. Even if he fired it, he was not certain that he would succeed in killing it.

BANG!

The impact of the smash created a mini earthquake. A large pit appeared to where the Demon Rowdy landed.
