My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character! - Chapter 282

Chapter 282: Chapter 282: What I want
“There is certainly one thing that I want,” Eren said, realizing what a previous and unexpected opportunity he had received.

The Professor looked at Eren like he was an idiot.

Even though he had offended Mist by kidnapping her daughter, he was still greedy enough to demand a treasure? Did he think he could survive after using treasures?

Most of them were looking at him like a fool who put his life on the line for greed. Still, it was for the best.

If they could retrieve Sera by giving him a treasure, that was the best solution. As for how to deal with him later, Mist was going to take care of that personally.

“What is it that you want?” Mist asked, not hesitating in the slightest. It didn’t matter what he asked for. She was going to give him anything as long as she could take her daughter back.

Still, that didn’t mean she was going to let him go unpunished. This man dared to lay his hand on her daughter.

She had already planned to hang his head at the entrance of the Academy, setting an example on what happens if someone targets her daughter. However, she first needed to take her daughter back for that.

“Shouldn’t you at least try to hide that bloodlust in your eyes, old friend?” Eren asked, tilting his head in amusement.

He could clearly see that she was already planning to rip him apart. He would have really been scared if he already didn’t have a route to escape.

The entire reason he chose to kidnap Sera at this moment was precisely because of the reward that had already appeared in front of him.

[You have completed the Selected Option]

[You have been awarded an Escape Talisman (Epic Tier)]

A talisman appeared in his inventory which was already open next to him. All he needed to do was to bring out the talisman and activate it to leave with Mist’s daughter.

He knew that normal talismans wouldn’t have helped him escape with all the restrictions around the Academy, but the reward from the System hadn’t failed him yet.

It was also rare to have a Talisman categorized as Rare Tier. He was sure that it could help him escape even in this situation, which was why he didn’t hesitate in poking Mist.

Even if she looked like she wanted to kill him and drink his blood, what could she even do if she couldn’t find him?

“Old Friend?” Mist’s eyes narrowed. She didn’t understand why this man was calling her an old friend as if they knew each other. She didn’t recall someone like him.

The other Professors were also confused, wondering if the man was indeed Mist’s friend.

‘Another friend?’ Eldric silently observed the scene, not interfering in the slightest. If anything, he looked like he was enjoying the sight of Mist’s distress.

“Who are you?” Mist realized something. The person definitely wasn’t who he claimed to be. She even thought that he was in disguise.

Normally, ordinary disguise shouldn’t have worked in front of her. And there were only a few treasures that could help someone disguise to this extent, all being rarer than finding a Unicorn.

“You know, I am quite hurt. How can you forget me? Don’t you remember the time when we used to run around the continents, playing hide and seek?” Eren smiled, burning Mist’s curiosity even more.

She was quite confused. Who was this person? Was he just messing with her?

There were only two people that she chased after, and one of them was dead. As for the second one… He couldn’t use any abilities anymore, so it couldn’t be him either. Then who was it?

“How sad,” Eren started changing his physique again, making it appear as if he was revealing his real look when he was simply disguising into another look.

Slowly, his body started changing. His hair also changed color, becoming darker. His face also became more slender and sharp, and his skin became paler.

In just a few seconds, he had changed into another person’s appearance completely.

“This is…” Not just Mist but almost every person on the first floor was taken aback, some even taking a step back in shock.

Although years had passed since that time, they hadn’t forgotten the identity of this person. There used to be a time when just the name of this person used to scare anyone.

He wasn’t known in just the Southern Continent but across all four continents. It was Devourer, the person that was claimed to be able to become the next Overlord.

Mist’s expressions also twisted as she saw the face of the person. “This is impossible. You should be…”

“Dead?” Eren completed her sentence with a mocking gaze. “Did you really think I will die before people like you?”

In the entire place, there were only a few people who didn’t recognise Eren’s new face. They were the students who were either not born at that time or weren’t old enough.

There was also Eldric who was simply confused. Who could make Mist react like this? He couldn’t recognise Eren as he wasn’t alive when Devourer made his appearance.

If he was, then with his strength and Anti Magic Physique, it would have created an entirely different picture.

The Prophet was also taken aback.

‘Why is everyone so shocked? Who is he?’ he thought, confused.

“I think you understand what I want?” Eren asked, implying that there was only one thing he could be here for.

As he didn’t really know what was the thing that was said to help him in his journey to unseal his old cultivation, he couldn’t directly ask her to hand it over.

Instead, he made her think about what he wanted.

“It’s been too long since he has been sealed. I think it’s about time for him to be free as well,” he added to make sure she didn’t have any room to misunderstand his words.
