Chapter 18 - Punishment

Damien heard the silence that spread all over the entire enclosure the second the duel was over. He looked down at Abaddon who was lying on the ground and then turned to look at the teacher who was responsible for overlooking their duel, the demon dressed in the teacher's cloak was looking at him in stupefaction and Damien couldn't help but blink his eyes as he pointed to Abaddon and asked, " So this thing is over right?"

Don't tell him that he couldn't use such moves in the demon world.

" Y..yes, it is.." replied the teacher as he backed away slightly before raising his hand and giving up a thumbs up to Damien. "It's just that I have never seen anyone use such a vicious move before… you have a wonderful future ahead of you my boy! You will be a great demon one day!"

" Haha, thanks …" Damien laughed dryly as the teacher snapped his fingers and the entire enclosure vanished returning to its original state before the duel.

Once the duel was over the crowd parted as well, all of them discussing the duel that has just taken place, Damien too was about to leave with them when he heard a groan. He turned his head and looked at Abaddon who was on the ground his entire face scrunched up in pain, even though Damien knew that he didn't use much strength to attack him, he couldn't be sure given that earring that he wore doubled all his of his strengths and moves.

Maybe the slam was indeed a bit too hard and then the poor guy was unfortunate enough to land on his eggs.

" Damn, you better be grateful to me," said Damien as he ruffled the back of his hair and then walked over to the half-unconscious before crouching down and then turning Abaddon on his side.

It was just as expected attacking a man's fatal point no matter whether human or demon was simply too painful. Even though Abaddon was a strong demon, he was knocked senseless by the move that Damien just pulled on him.

" Well, since it's sort of my fault… I will take you to the infirmary." Damien poked Abaddon on the forehead. " But I will double slam you like this if you were to come after me again."

He didn't know whether or not Abaddon heard him or not, but the latter shivered and only then did Damien pull him over and then wrapped his arm around the latter's waist and then dragged him towards the academy building, he didn't know where the infirmary was but after asking around a little, he kind of worked out the layout of the academy that was built like an underground maze.

Upon reaching the infirmary that was overlooking a very dangerous cliff as if they were used to throwing dead demon bodies over the railing every freaking second day, Damien raised his hand and knocked on the door of the infirmary.

No sooner did he do that, than the door was swung open but the thing that was swinging over the knob of the door was not a demon or human, it was a blackened demon claw without anybody attached to it.

" Another one already?" A voice came from the other end of the room and Damien raised his head to look at the man who was sitting inside. His pale golden hair was tied in a loose side ponytail as he looked at Damien with an annoyed expression.

" Goodness," he said as he pushed himself off the chair and then heaved a sigh of annoyance. " Become the academy nurse they said, it would be completely easy work they said and yet I get three patients on the very first day of the entrance ceremony what a mess."

Damien looked at the demon who was muttering in annoyance and then waited until he was finished before he asked, " So where should I help this guy down?"

" On my head," snorted the demon nurse as the claw scuttled back to him and then started climbing on top of his shoulder. " Can't you see there is only one bed left in the infirmary just put him down there and you can leave then?"

This was exactly what Damien wanted, so he dragged Abaddon to the other end of the room and then helped him to lie down on the empty bed while ignoring the giant demon lying on the one next to his.

" I will be leaving then——" Damien began speaking but then he heard the sound of a bell chiming and then a male was enhanced a hundred times louder than its usual self spoke through what looked like speakers. " Damien Vivi please report to the student council room as soon as possible."

" Student council room?" Damien frowned, why was he being called to the student council room? Maybe his questions were written on his face because he heard the demon nurse say, " Why else? They are calling you because of the fight. After all, getting in trouble on the first day of the academy is a bit too much as well."

He turned to look at Damien over his shoulder and snickered, " I hope they turn you into a demon skewer. I haven't seen a demon being punished like that for ages."
