Dekan Uses a Tiger to Devour a Wolf

After Cornelia and Dekan were kicked out of the infirmary, they did not immediately head elsewhere.

Even though they had already successfully obtained the exploration progress for the infirmary.

However, Cornelia saw the expression on Dekan's face.

She knew that Dekan was playing a much larger game.

Dekan was currently pressing his ear against the door outside the infirmary, eavesdropping on the movements inside.

From time to time, he also tried to observe the situation inside through the crack in the door.

Meanwhile, Cornelia stood guard to the side, keeping a lookout for him.

"Screech! Screech!"

Dekan heard sharp, ear-piercing sounds of metal sawing coming from the infirmary from time to time, sounding exactly like the Demon School Doctor was using a sharp tool to cut through Baron Batchelor's flesh, tendons, and bones.

The Demon School Doctor was currently performing a terrifying modification on Baron Batchelor.

If the modification succeeded, Baron Batchelor might even reach a combat power approaching Tier 6.

Baron Batchelor's muffled, painful wails and the humming of metal sawing through scales and armor rose and fell in succession.

After a while, Baron Batchelor's miserable cries grew heavier, until they turned into a wretched roar.

"Ahhhhh!! Why am I here?!"

Baron Batchelor finally regained consciousness during the Demon School Doctor's "reconstructive surgery."

Although his brain was still in a state of chaos at this moment.

The pain brought about by having his flesh sliced and bones scraped had gradually allowed him to regain his senses.

He discovered that he was not in the cooking classroom, but had been brought to a place that was extremely terrifying even for a teacher.

"Heh heh, Batchelor, endure it a little longer; you will become my proudest masterpiece."

As the Demon School Doctor stitched monster parts and metal components onto Batchelor, he deliberately used rough methods to irritate his wounds.

This was the Demon School Doctor's twisted hobby; not only did he dislike administering anesthesia to patients, but he also tried to keep them awake.

"Stop it, ahhhhh!!!"

Baron Batchelor could not accept that his elegant self would become such a hideous specimen for the school doctor's experiments.

Although his brain was a jumbled mess.

The only thing he was certain of was that his heart felt blocked by fear, almost to the point of suffocation.

He was trapped in a nightmare from which he could not escape.

It seemed he had previously endured pain far exceeding this moment.

The fear accompanying that pain all pointed toward an existence far more terrifying than the principal.

But he could not recall the appearance of that terrifying existence.

It seemed as if his brain's self-protection mechanism was preventing him from remembering.

Baron Batchelor begged the Demon School Doctor in despair: "I beg you, let me go! You are being watched too! There is still time to run!!"

"Heh heh, Batchelor, stop talking nonsense. I am merely treating a patient who came to the infirmary according to school rules; you cannot blame me."

The Demon School Doctor ignored Batchelor entirely, remaining obsessed with his modification work.

"You are violating the rules!! How could I possibly have come to you voluntarily!"

Batchelor seemed to have realized something and shouted in a panic.

"Two students brought you here; it wasn't me who dragged you in."

The Demon School Doctor chuckled deviously.

"Two students... ahhhhhhhhh!!!"

Batchelor seemed to recall something; his memories became half a degree clearer, and he howled in agony, his voice sounding incomparably wretched.

This gave the Demon School Doctor immense pleasure, and he was very satisfied with Baron Batchelor's state.

The tools in his hands began to cut even more rapidly.

Just like that, several tens of minutes passed, and the increasingly intense screams of Baron Batchelor inside the infirmary finally reached their peak.

Dekan felt it was about time.

Whether it was a live horse being treated like a dead one, or a dead horse being treated like a live one, the modification should have entered the final stage; it was time for a result.

"Cornelia, you've memorized the escape route, right?"

Dekan asked in a low voice.

Cornelia nodded seriously.

She had been carefully studying the map Dekan drew just moments ago.

Dekan: "Watch the volume ahead."

Cornelia covered her ears: "Mm."

Following this, Dekan summoned the Ruined Poet outside the infirmary door.

"Pain! It hurts so much!"

Black mist instantly flooded the corridor, even creeping into the infirmary.

"Ahhh—" (voice cracking)

At the same time, Baron Batchelor's screams inside the infirmary became fragmented and shrill, startling the Demon School Doctor.

He felt he hadn't been particularly rough with Baron Batchelor just moments ago.

"Eh? What is this black mist?"

The Demon School Doctor looked at the black mist spreading across the floor with some surprise.

He realized at this moment that Baron Batchelor's abnormal agony seemed to be related to this black mist.

"Him! It's him!!"

In that instant, Baron Batchelor finally recalled the fear of being dominated by this black mist from his chaotic state of mind.

He finally remembered the devil who stood within that black mist.

That was the most terrifying devil he had ever seen.

The one who toyed with him in the palm of his hand, tortured him endlessly, and shattered his sanity completely.

As the pain in his body and the fear in his heart reached their peak simultaneously, Baron Batchelor felt something in his mind snap and shatter into pieces.

"Ahhhhh! Hahahaha!!!"

Baron Batchelor actually began to laugh with a growing, fanatical madness.

He was crying and laughing, looking like a madman.

He threw his head back and roared, his eyes bloodshot, his body continuing to swell.

A power far more terrifying than at any previous moment erupted from him, instantly breaking the restraints of the operating table as he lunged at the Demon School Doctor.

A terrifying crash echoed from the infirmary, reverberating through the hallway.

Baron Batchelor had completely entered a berserk state, or rather, he had completely lost his mind.

"Batchelor! Calm down! I'm just following the rules! I have the Principal's backing!"

The Demon School Doctor shouted in panic while fending off the completely irrational Baron Batchelor.

However, Baron Batchelor seemed not to hear him at all, brutally mauling the Demon School Doctor.

Meanwhile, Dekan had already withdrawn the Ruined Poet and was running away with Cornelia.

"Baron Batchelor has evolved incorrectly, losing his 'Batchelor-ness' getdaze!"

Dekan started saying things that Cornelia couldn't understand again.

Cornelia noticed that Dekan wasn't afraid of Baron Batchelor's rampage at all.

And looking at how happy he was, it seemed his plan had succeeded once more.

The two hid around the corner of the corridor and waited for a while.

They saw a three-meter-tall monster crash out of the infirmary; Baron Batchelor no longer looked human at all.

His body was covered in a few wounds, and he was chewing and swallowing the Demon School Doctor.

"Roar!!!"

The roar echoed through the corridor, filled with despair and bewilderment.

After the flames of rage burned out, all Baron Batchelor felt was an overwhelming, bottomless void.

"Hey!"

Just then.

A short figure appeared in Baron Batchelor's field of vision.

This short figure stood at the end of the corridor, swaying back and forth.

It wore a smile full of mockery on its face.

"Hee hee hee, come and get me!"

A voice full of playfulness, and perhaps a hint of wisdom, came from its mouth.

Once Baron Batchelor's gaze fully focused on the small figure in the distance, his entire body began to tremble.

It was a half-meter-tall doll.

Its figure was round and cute.

And the doll's face...

Was none other than Chibi Dekan!
