My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character! - Chapter 642

Chapter 642: Chapter 642: Descent
“Something bad would be an understatement,” Yelen said, her words making Eren even more worried.

Even though the Holy Empire was the greatest force that he could control, the Demon Sect was still his home, and the place where he could always hide in case everything went wrong for him.

It was the place where he had first transmigrated to, and also the only place whose main character had already died at his hands.

More importantly, it had the people most precious to him, including the Sect Master whose blood was the last thing he needed to remove the last seal on his cultivation and release it completely.

If anything happened to the Sect Master of the Demon Sect, he could only forget about retrieving the true cultivation of Ren Necroline.

He didn’t think that Ren Necroline’s strength could be stronger than his current strength, but it was still one more hidden weapon that could make him even more stronger.

He also needed the Sect Master to complete the Path of the Lover and receive the treasure that he was promised by the system.

“Please tell me that Feng Yu is still alive.” He grimaced.

“She is still alive,” Yelen said, making Eren sigh in relief. “As long as she is still alive, that’s good. So what was the trouble with the Eastern Continent that you were talking about?”

“The Eastern Continent is at war with the Southern Continent. Each side has lost many powerful people. Many Great Elders of the Demon Sect have died, alongside the Professors of the Hero Academy.”

“What? Didn’t you say that the Hero Academy didn’t do anything and the two sides held each other back?”

“That was only at the start. Just one year ago, things escalated when an Elder was found dead in the Eastern Continent, and there were signs of the Hero Academy’s involvement.”

“Right after that, the Southern Continent attacked the Eastern Continent, led by the Hero Academy that blamed the Demon Sect instead, saying their professor was killed by a Demon Sect Member.”

“I don’t know who was telling the truth, as no one could really verify it. But the war arrived, and the Hero Academy didn’t hesitate.”

Hearing Yelen’s explanation, Eren’s expressions grew more complicated.

He didn’t know if the Hero Academy was lying and using it as an excuse to attack and finish the Demon Sect before the Holy Empire could recover, or if there was someone else manipulating everything from the shadows.

Subconsciously, he kept thinking about the Prophet. He suspected that man of being a transmigrator like him, but he hadn’t killed that person, having no such opportunity.

“If I was there, I could have gathered more information from the Hero Academy, but it’s impossible now. Tell me, what’s the status of the war now?”

“Ah, it’s not good. The new Leader of the Hero Academy is really clever and strong. In the last one year, the Demon Sect has suffered the most.”

“The Sect Leader also failed to change the tide of the battle, as she was held back by the new leader of the Academy every time she made an appearance. Their last battle was just two days ago, and both returned with serious injuries.”

“You said the new leader? Is that…” Eren already knew what might have happened. He thought he had a lot of time to deal with that main character of South, who was the reincarnation of a supreme expert that was betrayed by Hero Academy’s Dean Mist.

As five years had passed, it was enough time for him to show his ambitions.

“Fortunately I already used Mist’s blood to remove the seal on my cultivation. If I had left that for later, I would’ve been screwed even more.” He rubbed his forehead, and rested his elbows on the railing.

“You can continue,” he told Yelen who went silent when he started talking to himself.

“The new leader of the Hero Academy is a man, who joined the Academy only five years ago. It’s said that he had many s-rank abilities that allowed him to suppress Mist and take over the academy.”

“Did he already kill Mist?”

“Many people believe it to be the case, but no one knows for sure. No one saw the corpse. That’s why, there are also some rumors that he has just imprisoned Mist. There are also a few rumours that he has some connections with the Upper Realm, which are more serious ones.’

“You know, every time you give me an update, the situation starts sounding more and more grim. But it’s good that the man isn’t stronger than Feng Yu yet. If both of them were injured, it means that they will take a long time to recover. It should buy me some time.”

If there was any silver lining, it was that the two strongest parties on each side had been taken out of the war, and none could change the tide of the war right away. It was a stable situation.

As long as his clone could put an end to the rebellion in time, and the Holy Empire came to help, the situation could be suppressed fast.

“But it’s just my clone, he doesn’t have what it takes to solve this mess yet. He also has glaring weaknesses that can’t be ignored. I need to be there, if I want to do anything. But how…”

Eren started stressing his head, trying to think about the ways that could allow him to control the situation back home, without taking a spatial passage back.

“It’s not as if I can just descend without a spatial portal,” he mumbled, but the moment he heard himself, his eyes widened. “Descent!”

The Goddess of Light had used descent to establish a connection with the lower realm and descend into the body of the Holy Priestess.

Her soul was too strong, and couldn’t stay in the soul of a human for a long time. But he was different. The soul within his clone, and him were identical.

If he could learn that skill, he could descend into his clone’s body temporarily to control the situation and return when needed. Even his system could come down with him.

“Unfortunately, the Temple of Light has already been destroyed by some pathetic bastard. Even if I want to learn that skill, I can’t. But maybe there are still some survivors that might be in hiding. If I can… I have to go there!”
