The Survival of the Third-rate Villain - Chapter 150

Chapter 150: 150 – Helping Hands [1]
Raye ran toward the exit of the outdoor training ground.

But on his way—

BAM!

-Keke! Stop right there!

A demon appeared a few meters in front of him.

It had a massive torso, its eyes were uneven, its lower body was skinny, and its horns and wings were nothing like the noble-looking demon’s.

It was clear that this demon was planning to stop Raye’s advance.

“Tch—”

Raye clicked his tongue in annoyance.

‘I have no time for this!’

He exclaimed in his head, readying to take out [Nyx] and [Celestria] from his spatial ring.

Though, just then—

FWOOOSH—

A blurred figure ran past him!

It was fast—faster than Ace!

“Huh?”

Raye was surprised by this.

-?!

And so was the demon!

And the next thing they both knew—

Fwish—

Allen was in front of the demon!

SWOOSH—!!

His sword—just inches away from the demon’s face!

But—

CLANG—!

The demon stopped it.

A twisted grin spread across its uneven face.

-Kehehehe! Is that all?

Its small, disgusting wings twitched, its glowing red eyes gleaming with amusement.

-You think a mere human can touch me?

It sneered, its voice filled with arrogance.

But then—

Fwish—

A sudden shift.

A blur of movement behind the demon.

And before it could even react—

FWOOSH—!

A fist—coated in blazing mana—came crashing toward its right side!

-?!?

The demon’s eyes widened in shock when he felt that!

Devin had appeared!

Completely unnoticed.

The demon was too focused on Allen.

Devin’s presence was hidden, his movements precise.

And before his attack connected—

“[Azure Fist]”

Devin muttered that!

Then—

BOOOOOM—!!!

A deafening explosion erupted.

A shockwave tore through the air.

Blue flames engulfed the demon’s right side, the sheer force of the blow sending it staggering back!

“…!”

Raye stood frozen.

Speechless.

The raw power. The perfect timing.

They were strong.

Stronger than he had imagined.

Then—

Swish—

“…?”

Devin glanced at him.

And with a confident smile on his face—

“Let us handle this. We’re itching to fight, after all.”

He said that to Raye.

“…!”

Raye’s eyes widened.

But immediately—

Fwip—

He bowed his head.

Grateful.

‘Thanks.’

He muttered in his head.

And then—

BAM—!

FWOOSH—!

He dashed toward the exit once more.

No hesitation. No delay.

His priority was clear.

And as he vanished into the distance—

“Don’t get in my way.”

Swish~

Allen said, fixing his stance.

“Don’t worry, you’re not stronger than me.”

Then Devin mindlessly declared that, rolling his shoulders.

“…”

Allen frowned at his words, but he decided not to say anything for now.

And together—

Fwip-

They turned to the demon.

He was blasted to the side a few meters away after Devin’s punch.

“Now then…”

Allen smirked, tightening his grip on his sword.

“You’re up against us.”

He proclaimed.

And hearing that—

-Kehehe…

The demon chuckled, its grotesque form twitching.

Its amusement was gone.

Instead—

A low, guttural growl rumbled from its throat.

It was pissed.

And the fight was only just beginning.

…

*****

Raye left Allen and Devin to face off the what seemed to be a mid-rank demon.

He completely trusted them to take care of it, so without worry—

BAM!

He kicked off the ground, dashing forward.

But before he could even really get away—

BOOM—!!!

The ground cracked a few meters in front of him—dust and smoke exploded into the air!

And from within it—

A towering figure emerged.

It was another demon!

Bigger. Stronger.

And Raye could tell—

‘Is it about to be High-Rank?!’

His eyes narrowed, his frown deepening.

The demon stood in his way, its twisted grin widening after seeing Raye.

-You look strong.

The demon sneered.

-Fight me.

He said, his voice was filled with excitement, his crazed red eyes locked onto Raye.

‘Tch—just leave me the fuck alone!’

Raye clicked his tongue in annoyance.

But this time, before he could even stop in his tracks to take a stance—

“Keep going.”

A voice came from his behind.

“?!?”

Raye’s eyes widened.

But realizing whose voice is it—

Without hesitation—without looking back—

BAM!

Raye kicked off harder on the ground!

FWOOOSH—!!

His speed doubled!

Raye’s body shot toward the demon in a blur!

-Huh?

The demon was startled.

A human was charging at him like a bull, he didn’t expect that.

But now that he’s seeing this—

A wide, twisted smile spread across the demon’s face.

-LOOKS LIKE YOU REALLY WANT TO DIE, HUH!!!

It roared—its eyes flaring with killing intent!

And then—

FWOOSH—!!!

It swung its massive claws!

The air howled—

Its speed was insane!

It was going to slice through Raye!

But even as the deadly claws closed in—

“…”

Raye didn’t stop.

He didn’t even blink.

And just when the attack was about to land on him—

FWISH—!!!

A sharp gust of wind!

A figure appeared beside Raye—moving faster than the eye could follow!

And then—

SWOOSH—!!!

TANGG—!!!

A sword clashed against the demon’s claws!

The impact sent sparks flying!

-?!?

The demon’s eyes widened in shock!

Its attack was stopped—completely deflected!

His right hand was flung upward!

And the one who did it—

It was Leon!

“…”

He stood firm, both hands gripping his mana-coated sword.

And in that moment—

FWOOSH—!!!

Raye ran past the demon!

His path was clear!

-YOU’RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE!!!

SWISH—!!!

The demon snarled—its other hand lunging toward Raye’s back!

Its claws were just inches away from grabbing him—

But—

“Oh no, you don’t.”

CLANK—!!!

Another clash!

The demon’s attack was stopped again!

Lycus had appeared!

His dual daggers crossed, holding back the demon’s grasp!

-?!?

The demon’s face twisted in frustration.

Lycus grinned.

“Tsk tsk, too slow.”

He said.

Leon smirked.

“Too weak.”

He followed.

And hearing their provocation…

The demon’s expression darkened.

…

On the other hand—

Fwish-

Raye glanced back at Lycus and Leon.

And seeing them stopping the demon…

‘I really appreciate it. Thank you!’

Raye said that in his head.

Then, looking forward again—

BAM-!

He kept running.

Faster.

Faster!

SWOOOSH—!

Raye dashed toward the exit of the training, ignoring the chaos around him.

Avoiding the students that were running all around in panic.
