The Main Heroines are Trying to Kill Me
chapter-319

"Hyaaah!"

Olivia rushed fiercely and swung her sword down at Frey.

- Crack...!

"...!"

However, Frey grabbed the sword with an expressionless face.

- Clink!!

"O-oh my, goodness."

Olivia was shocked as in the next moment, her sword shattered under Frey’s grip.

- Boom...!

"Eheuk!"

Frey just looked at her silently and quietly reached out and unleashed stellar mana upon her.

"Olivia. Your attacks are too predictable."

"Ugh..."

As a result, Olivia stumbled and fell backwards. Frey grabbed the shattered sword and threw it back to her, then he started to charge at her.

“As with the last evaluation and at the Erosion Incident, you’re too rigid. There’s no room for discretion, trickery or improvisation.”

"Release the hero!!!"

"If your skills were well-developed, you could have a distinct style. But if your skills are lacking, it's just arrogance."

"Keheuk!!"

Olivia managed to defend herself against the attacks, However, she was suddenly struck by a surprise attack from the side. She clutched her waist and collapsed to the ground.

"Olivia, 5 minutes 49 seconds. Disqualified."

Frey grinned and approached her, dark mana slowly began to pour out of his left arm into his right hand.

"Back off!!!!"

"I don’t want to!!!"

Witnessing this, Olivia screamed with a pale expression. Similarly, Frey shouted back.

“I’ve already said it before, right? When you attack me, you should be ready to put your life on the line…”

Seeing Olivia appalled, Frey coldly extended his hand and whispered.

"At least being my slave suits you."

"Back… off…”

- Seep...

"...Huk, hegeuk."

Olivia tried to resist until the end by squirming. However, as soon as the stigma of slavery was engraved on her lower abdomen, tears streamed down her hollow eyes.

"Well, who's next then?"

With blood-stained hands, Frey kindly wiped away her tears and gently patted her belly before standing up..

"Is there anyone else who wants to protect Ruby? No one?"

"..."

However, no one else stepped forward.

After all, the majority of the students had been subdued and defeated by Frey.

The remaining students focused solely on holding out, and none dared to confront Frey.

"Why is no one stepping up? If Ruby takes any more hits here, the world will be destroyed."

Frey, who had been silently looking at the students, tilted his head and shouted at them.

“Just a moment ago, didn’t you all want to challenge me? You were even shouting nonsense at me. Where did those murderous spirits go? Why did you guys suddenly turn into drenched, pathetic puppies?”

Still, there was no response.

Unless they were too young, all talented kids on the continent were gathered here. They were the strongest freshmen in the whole continent, and the Empire even acknowledged their talent as the best of the best.

However, this also meant they had never experienced such a crushing defeat.

It seemed that the students, who had already been dominated by the overwhelming power and threat of Frey's existence, had no will to resist anymore.

“Did you think I wouldn’t touch any of you guys? Why shouldn’t I? I’m the evil villain after all— I’m the enemy of The Hero, and I work for the Demon King’s army.”

"H-He’s coming.”

"If you don't come to me, I'll come to you. Try to endure until the end of class if you can."

Frey kicked off the rain-soaked ground and started running towards a small group of students.

"W-wait, just a moment...!!"

But at that moment, someone jumped out in front of Frey.

"Hmm?"

Thanks to that, Frey stopped, and a girl soaked in rainwater stretched out her arms and shouted.

"I-I'll face you!"

Despite shivering in the cold, Lecane Luna Silvermoon loudly shouted for the first time in her life.

"Therefore, please, stop!"

She stood firmly on her ground, contrasting with her fearful gaze that seemed to want to surrender immediately. Seeing her like this, Frey spoke with an amused expression on his face.

"For self-sacrifice, plus 1 point."

"Uh, uh..."

"But you're too much of a coward. Minus 1 point."

Frey ruthlessly gave and deducted points, grabbed a rod from the ground, and swung it at her.

"Uh..."

The courage she had finally mustered shattered into pieces, breaking apart under the crazed laughter of the blood-soaked Frey. Seeing the impending attack, Lecane couldn’t help but shut her eyes.

- Crackle...!

Green flames erupted in front of her.

"Heeeuuuaaa!!"

Lenya's older sister, Lea, with her green eyes glowing, blocked Frey's sword strike with her own sword, her hands trembling.

- Seeep...

As a green sword aura bloomed from her sword, Frey's eyes lit up.

“Get away from my sister…!”

And at that moment, a fierce attack came rushing from behind Frey.

- Crackle...! Crackle...! Crackle...!

"You bastard!!"

Lenya, along with spirits and fairies circling around her, was casting magic against Frey.

It was what they called triple casting.

Triple-layered spell that was only heard of in a legend.

Unless you were a Spirit Summoner who could control both spirits and fairies, the complex technique could only be used by dragons or high elves. And that legendary technique was being reproduced on the sports field for the first time in centuries.

"Bonus points for rare magic, plus 10 points, but since you cursed at a professor, minus 15 points."

Frey was briefly fascinated when he saw the sight, but then he used his stellar mana to block her spell.

It was a situation where it was hard to determine who was more impressive: Lenya succeeding in a triple-layered spell on her first attempt, or Frey effortlessly neutralizing it with his own mana.

- Shaaa...

Suddenly, an arrow made of black mana spiraled and flew towards Frey.

"Die."

The one who cast the spell was none other than Eurelia.

The students were amazed to witness Eurelia employing black magic. After all, it was a secret weapon she guarded closely.

"Ugh."

Frey looked at it with cold sweat before blocking it with his left arm.

"I never thought you'd reveal that part of your personality here."

Frey asked as he looked at Eurelia, who had abandoned her calm demeanor and was fighting wholeheartedly for the first time.

"Have you decided to trust these kids?"

"...Shut up."

With those words, Eurelia fired black magic arrows from all directions.

At first, the students were perplexed by the sight. However, soon they realized that Frey's mana, which had been oddly blocking them, weakened. In response, they began to exert even more strength.

"J-just giving strength won't work..."

Lecane, who had just been too scared to speak moments ago, spoke up.

"...We have to resonate everyone's mana."

As the students looked puzzled at her words, her eyes lit up with moonlight color, and she shouted.

“E-everyone gather your mana to one spot…!

Not as much as Serena, but her blood, which carried the same lineage, was not for nothing.

In response to Lecane's words, who would become the next Chancellor of the Empire if Serena were absent, the students hesitated but began gathering their mana.

- Woooong...

Finally, as Lecane mustered courage until the end to extract her lunar mana and resonate it with everyone's mana, the area around Frey began to shake.

"I-it's a mana resonance phenomenon. I-I researched it all the time. When 'special mana' overlaps and overlaps again with others, t-then t-tremendous power..."

"Cut off the explanation! I roughly get it now!!"

"If we succeed in this, even Frey won't be able to withstand it. We can save the Hero."

"...Die, Frey."

Frey wore a broad grin as he observed the hopeful students concentrating on 'mana resonance'.

“Hahaha… Indeed, things only went smoothly because I suddenly decided to act crazy.”

The only way to save the lives of the freshmen was unfolding.

A miracle that could only be achieved by pushing the students to their limits.

Mana resonance was treated as an ‘ultimate move' in the system, like the Hero's Armament, Ferloche's 'Sun God's Blessing', and Irina's 'Ultimate Magic', which is no different from a suicide move.

Now, one of those ultimate moves was about to occur right before his eyes.

“To be honest, I was uncertain how to explain this part of the lesson. Yet, as expected, the Ancestors’ teaching style proves very effective.”

- Rumble, rumble, rumble...

"And, most importantly, finally, I could see some teamwork."

Frey smiled brightly as he witnessed the technique that would normally take months or even years to achieve, accomplished in one go.

"But I can't let you all succeed like this."

However, Frey's expression changed to a chilling one.

- Crash...! Crash...!

At the same time, Frey's stellar mana aggressively infiltrated the mana resonating among the students.

“Did you truly believe that enemies in a real battle would simply stand still and allow you to complete that technique?”

Seeing the students bewildered by his interception, Frey spoke with a chilling smile.

"T-try to maintain it somehow!"

"N-no, it's wrong. It can't be maintained. The stellar mana is too overwhelming..."

“Eeeeuuuu…”

The students desperately tried to stabilize the surging mana, but they couldn't overcome Frey’s overwhelming mana.

- Crack, shatter...!

- Boooomm!!

Eventually, the students' mana shattered into pieces, emitting shockwaves in all directions.

"This is not a fairy tale or a heroic saga, kids."

Frey observed the dejected and frightened students who were flung away by the shock wave, their faces looking as though they had just lost their souls as they vomited blood. He spread his arms and began to speak.

“You face an overwhelming opponent and struggle, but eventually you awaken something and defeat the enemy. That kind of development is so boring, don’t you think?”

"Uh, uh..."

"Lecane, the Horizon Sisters, and Eurelia. 10 minutes and 39 seconds."

With a stern voice, Frey declared to the completely battered students. Then he touched the bellies of Lecane and Lenya and imprinted the stigma of slavery on them.

"S-sorry... I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Because of me, because of me, because of me..."

"Let go of meeee!"

Lecane muttered in despair, she clutched her head as the courage she finally displayed resulted in a disastrous result for everyone.

And Lenya thrashed around, trying to stop the stigma of slavery from being engraved on her. However, all was for naught, and she wept as the stigma was carved onto her abdomen.

That was the moment when all the first-year freshmen were miserably defeated by Frey and branded with the stigma of slavery.

"I'll give you a task."

Frey slowly surveyed the collapsed students in front of him before beginning to shout.

“Analyze the reason why you lost so poorly today, and this is the task to improve the childish and flashy techniques you kids just showed me.”

Then, Frey quietly moved his steps and concluded his speech.

"I'll remove the stigma of slavery for the person who performed most successfully."

As Frey said this, the lifeless eyes of the students, who were writhing on the ground, changed.

"Hmm."

It was not a look of fear or helplessness as before, their eyes were now filled with determination.

“... Even if it ends in disaster, at least you guys finally showed some teamwork. And now, there’s a chance to practice skills that you can’t practice under normal circumstances. There’s still hope yet with you lot.”

While looking at that scene with a pleased smile, Frey's expression soon darkened.

"However, if you still can't succeed..."

Then, Frey quietly swept his left arm, which felt as heavy as a log.

"...I'll make you all succeed, even if I have to do it forcefully."

Feeling the stigma of slavery that he just engraved on the students connecting to his own body, Frey concluded.

"My body can be replaced."

After finishing that statement, Frey, who was walking with a cheerful expression again, suddenly stopped.

"H-human."

Miho, whose forehead was swollen and was writhing on the ground, looked up at him with quivering eyes.

"Let’s kiss.”

"Wha-what... Hng!?"

Frey, who was looking down at Miho, lifted her and licked her lips, causing Miho's face to turn bright red.

"W-why? Why are you doing this?"

“To recover some of my life force, I’ve worked all day long.”

"...What shamelessness! Eubeb!!"

While she tried to say something, Frey put his tongue in her mouth, causing Miho to feel a twist in her belly.

"Bweh..."

Unable to withstand the pressure, Miho finally spit out the fox bead.

"Smooch..."

Frey slowly entangled both the fox bead and Miho’s tongue with his own. He brushed her swaying tail and fixed his gaze on one place.

"...C-crazy bastard."

Ruby, holding her stomach and drooling, staggered as she looked at Frey.

- Pfft...

"Uh..."

As a smile crept onto Frey's lips while looking at her, Ruby hesitated.

"Puha...!"

After a while, Frey pulled away from Miho’s lips and unwrapped her legs from his waist. Seeing Frey approach her, Ruby hastily unsheathed her sword.

"All the kids are in a groggy state. Frey. At this rate, I might..."

"The Hero... is talking back?"

Smiling maniacally at her, Frey charged forward.

"...Fuck."

"Hero!!! It's time for our private one-on-one special training session!!!"

Shortly after, a giant cloud of ruby color and starlight spread across the sports field.

"To defeat the Demon King!!! You have to bear this kind of burden!!! A hero doesn’t have it easy!!!"

"Eugeuk..."

"What’s wrong? Are you having a hard time? But you still have to endure it!!"

If she had been in perfect condition earlier, she could have fought evenly or even won. However, Ruby had already accumulated damage like a beaten dog, so she did not have much of a chance of winning.

"You're the Hero, aren’t you?!"

Ruby was considering whether she should just sincerely apologize to Frey, especially now.

.

.

.

.

.

"Kehek... Kek..."

- Thud!!

"...Aheug."

Frey's fist struck Ruby's abdomen.

"Do you like the feeling of the impact? Hero?? Maybe you didn't know because you haven't been hit much, but you have a talent to be a punching bag!!"

Frey, sitting on top of the battered Ruby, grinned from ear to ear as he continuously punched her in the stomach.

"Ugh, Ugeuk... Ugh..."

Initially, Ruby glared at Frey due to her pride, but she was inherently vulnerable to pain.

The first time she felt pain was a few months ago when she received a penalty from Glare and spewed blood from it.

Eventually, by the time dawn broke, she started to groan in pain like the other students.

"Your moans are so beautiful! So, this is how the sound you’ll make when you get hit? I hope it will come out in your dream too!"

"S-stop..."

While Frey subdued other students by attacking only as much as necessary and imprinting them with the stigma of slavery, he didn't take any chances when dealing with Ruby.

"What did you just... say?"

When “stop” came out of Ruby's mouth for the first time, Frey stopped smiling and started to show a cold expression.

"S-stoppp itttt..."

Ruby looked up at him as if he were going to kill her, and began to thrash around.

- Thud...!

"Ruby, do you remember that time?"

Frey started talking again after he wrapped Ruby’s leg around his waist.

“Do you remember? What you did after you got on top of me during the Inauguration Ceremony?

"..."

Hearing that, Ruby quietly closed her mouth.

"You pinned me down as I struggled and screamed for you to stop, grabbed my arms with both hands, pulled me up, and tried to violate me with your tongue, didn’t you?"

"That's..."

"Why didn't you stop back then? You were mocking me while laughing gleefully, so why are you asking me to stop now?"

As Frey looked down at her, he whispered with a terrifying expression that could make even ghosts flee.

- Crash...!

"Kyaaaak!!"

And as soon as he uttered those words, Frey swiftly struck Ruby’s left arm with the glass shard infused with stellar mana that he had carefully prepared.

"I've thought about it, but it seems like a bastard like you don't understand what it's like to be on the receiving end, huh?"

"I-iikk..."

"So, I'll make you experience it just like I did!"

"Ah, agh!"

Then, Frey thrust the glass so deeply into her arm that the tip of it pierced through the ground.

"Sorry, I can only use my right hand now."

Then he grabbed Ruby's right arm, lifted her up, and quietly licked her neck.

"W-what are you doing, Frey."

Ruby was confused for a moment, but then she rolled her eyes and spoke.

“In the end, you were a man after all…”

Ruby trembled as she felt the slimy sensation around her neck, putting more strength on her legs around Frey's waist.

"Or... Heuaaack!"

But in the next moment, Ruby screamed in agony.

- Bite...

Frey's teeth were digging into her neck.

"Ah, it hurts! It hurts! I said it hurts!"

As Ruby shouted wildly with tears in her eyes, Frey pulled away from her and licked his lips.

“Ever since that day, the moment I was attacked by you has never left my mind.”

- Crunch...

"Ah, ugh..."

Frey smashed Ruby’s right arm, and he began to whisper coldly.

“I always have nightmares when I sleep, and I always think of that scene even when I try to rest...”

- Crunch!

“I kept thinking about that horrible feeling of the sweet liquid coming out of your mouth non-stop and filling my body!! Ruby!!!”

The hoarse whisper soon turned into a full-blown scream, however, feeling disoriented from the pain, Ruby could only groan.

"What did you feed me back then!? Huh!? What the hell did you feed me!?"

"Uh, heubb..."

Ruby suddenly snapped back to her senses as Frey forcefully shoved his hand into her mouth.

This bastard...

It was a disgrace.

Someone was riding on top of her, pressing her down forcefully.

On top of that, he managed to inflict pain on her.

For Ruby, it was an unbearable situation.

- Crash...!

"Keugh..."

However, just because she found it unbearable didn’t mean that her situation would suddenly change.

It was because Frey's fist struck her face. Fist has always been an excellent tool for anger management.

"Why did you give me such an annoying look? Do you want to get hit?"

"Ugh, ugeuh... ugh..."

As long as she was inflicted with the ‘Curse of Vulnerability’, Frey would always be one level ahead of her.

"Ruby, let's have an honest conversation.

After relentlessly punching Ruby's face and stomach for a while, Frey spoke with a chilling expression.

"Why did you make me suffer so much? Why? Why did you do it?"

"..."

"Are you really just trying to break me? Are you really that crazy of a bitch? For real? So, that's the only damn reason I have to put up with all of this fucking nonsense?"

In response, Ruby, who was still inflicted with the curse of honesty, replied in a low voice.

"I... want to devour you."

"What?"

“More than anything, I wanted to isolate you, break you, and swallow you up…”

- Thud...!

"...Eugeuk."

Frey punched her side, deeming that her babbling was not worth hearing any further. He leaned forward and began whispering menacingly.

"Ruby, I hope you remember this very moment."

"..."

“I hope that, like me, every time you lie down, every time you enter a closed room, and every time you have a nightmare, today’s events will be engraved in your mind.”

"Ugh..."

“I want you to be reminded of today just by looking at my face.”

- Thud...!

After finishing his words, Frey pierced the glass into her heart.

"Since you left your bodily fluids inside me... I'll leave my mana in you."

"W-wait a moment..."

He started pouring his stellar mana onto the glass shard.

System Notification

[Accumulated damage has reached a certain threshold, automatic recovery skill is activated.]

"...!"

At the same time, a system message appeared before Ruby's eyes.

- Shaaa...

"F-Fuck...!"

Ruby cursed as her body began to heal, while the glass shard remained lodged in her heart.

"Hero!! Perhaps you're not aware of it!! But every hero should have at least one weakness like this!!!"

To prevent her from struggling, Frey pressed on her chest with his right hand.

"You've enjoyed an easy time until now!! Our Hero should get fucked like this at least once!!”

"You crazy bastard..."

"You made me go through such hell just because you were bored! You're the crazy one!!"

"Keugh..."

Perhaps due to the side effects of the glass shard in her heart, Ruby vomited blood, and at the same time, Frey, who pushed himself too hard today, also vomited blood.

"Does it hurt? Well, it should. It took me ten years just to get used to this pain."

"Keheuk..."

“Experience for yourself what it feels like to have pain taking over your entire body with every breath you take, you crazy bitch.”

After saying that, Frey staggered to his feet.

- Shaaa...

"..."

Frey smiled as he felt the system restoring his body.

"Let's go for another round, Ruby."

With her right hand, which has just begun to mend, Ruby clutched her chest. Her face started to pale when she heard Frey’s words.

.

.

.

.

.

- Crack! Crack...!

"The neck isn't broken. And your horn is still intact… That’s too bad."

Frey, still on top of Ruby, murmured with a disappointed expression.

- Slap...!

"Why are you losing consciousness? I got slapped without losing consciousness that time."

Seeing her starting to lose consciousness, Frey slapped Ruby’s cheek fiercely.

“Why does everyone struggle so much when I give them a taste of their own medicine? You’ve done this several times to others, you know? Do they not think about the pain of the person they've hurt?”

Despite his words, there was still no response. He continues muttering while tilting his head.

- Boom, boom, boom...

"Ouch."

But at that moment, stellar mana bursts on Frey's back.

"..."

Frey's eyes immediately turned gentle as he turned around to see who was attacking him.

"S-stop it..."

It was Frey’s younger sister, Aria. She spoke with her hand extended towards him.

"Aria, there's a reason for all this."

"I said stop it..."

"Actually, I'm the Hero, and Ruby is the Demon King. So, I'm just doing my duty. How is it? Do you understand?"

Frey stood up and cheerfully spoke to her. Seeing the eerie scene, Aria quietly took a step back.

"And actually, I still love you. Look, I didn't attack you and left you alone. In a way, it was a privilege…”

"...M-monster."

"..."

With just one word from her, Frey stopped laughing and strode towards her.

"Aria Raon Starlight, let’s count it as… 1 hour and 23 minutes for you."

"U-ugh..."

Frey whispered as he extended his hand towards her.

"...Oh, you got the first place.”

Catching his unconscious sister as she collapses after a flick on her forehead, Frey gently placed her on the ground and muttered.

"This level of corruption should be fine, right?"

A soft smile unexpectedly appeared on his face.

"Frey.”

"...!"

Hearing a very familiar voice from the side, Frey opened his eyes wide and turned his gaze.

"Serena!"

In front of him stood Serena, his fiancée.

"Once I get a bit crazy, everything gets done at lightning speed!"

Frey started speaking to her and boasted proudly.

"The Crown Prince’s faction was dealt with in an instant, and I even turned that chubby guy into stir-fried pork! And I also destroyed Ruby."

"..."

"Now, all that's left is to advance to the Imperial Palace tomorrow! I should have changed my perspective a long time ago. Why didn't I do this sooner..."

"...Honey."

However, upon hearing Serena's words, Frey immediately fell silent.

"Take a break for today."

Then, Frey quietly lowered his head and slowly embraced her.

"Why did you come here? It's not good for the baby."

"...Because I missed you."

Hearing this, Frey, who closed his eyes in silence, sighed and muttered.

"I should only show this side of me in front of Clana."

"Is there anything you can't say in front of me?"

"...Then, I'll go to sleep now!"

Then, he opened his eyes and started moving away.

"Frey..."

"Serena, you know too, don’t you?"

Responding to Serena's call, he spoke in a low voice.

"Now is the opportunity."

"..."

"There are things that can only be done when your perspective changes. You have to do as much as possible before your mind clears up, just in case."

Finishing his words, Frey headed towards the dormitory, humming a tune.

"Ugh, ugh..."

Serena watched Frey’s retreating back blankly. Her gaze turned cold as she saw Ruby writhing on the floor, groaning in pain.

"Don't look at it. It's dirty."

Saying that, Serena gently stroked her stomach.

"Our family has a different way of fighting."

Then, her gaze turned even more chilling.

"You'll learn it soon."

The white owl perched on her shoulder turned into a dot as it flew across the night sky.

.

.

.

.

.

"Those bastards dare to..."

Several hours later, in the barracks of the Imperial Knight Order.

"They are traitors. It's the emperor's strict order to eliminate them all."

"Of course! I will personally execute them all!"

The Commander of the Imperial Knight Order, who received the news of rebellion from the express messenger, was shouting furiously.

"Gather all the knights!! It's a mobilization order!! Those who refuse...!"

The moment he shouted so loudly that his face turned red and the blood on his neck started to protrude,

- Clink!!

"What, what’s going on!?"

"Hoooot!!"

An owl broke the window, flew in, and threw a letter at him.

"What's this..."

The Knight Commander, bewildered by the events, soon froze on the spot after reading the contents of the letter.

The Slaves hidden in the villa and your relationship with the Vice Commander. Does your wife know about it?

"...Fuck."

The Knight Commander's anger turned into terror in an instant.
