My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!
Chapter 504 The Hero

The girl looked at Eren in silence.

Even if her guard had put his lives on the line for her, it was because he was scared of a fate much worse.

The Holy Emperor didn't have such burdens as he didn't even know about the person behind her. Despite that, he was trying to protect her, knowing full well that he was going to die.

Even after she tried to kill him, breaking the engagement in front of his face, he was still standing up for her even as most of his body appeared to be broken.

He was still holding his sword, even as blood trickled down the hilt of the sword. The clone was bleeding so much more, simply to give it more impact.

"Impressive. To save that girl, you are willing to die? She is truly a lucky girl to have a lover like you," Eren said, breaking the silent atmosphere. "Unfortunately, she won't be lucky anymore. First, I will kill you in front of her, and then..."

Eren didn't finish his sentence. He simply rushed towards his clone. He didn't use the shadow sword, worried that the poison of the sword might harm his clone accidentally.

He didn't want the entire play to be spoiled, simply because his clone went poof after getting hurt.

With a treasured Sword, he could control his actions much more. At the same time, he could use his Dragon Tongue to make Eren appear more majestic.

Just like that, the battle between two people began. One was fighting to save the girl, and another was fighting to take her away.

At the core, the two already knew the outcome of the battle. The hero had to win with his last breath remaining, by half move. The knight in shining armor couldn't afford to lose, since his system was on the line.

The battle kept going on, and the entire hallway was getting destroyed with each passing second. Even a few cracks had started appearing on the domain.

The girl was looking at the battle in disbelief. She couldn't believe how strong the Holy Emperor had become. Even when he was injured, he was fighting on an equal footing with the other person.

Even her guard hadn't looked this good when fighting against Eren, as the Holy Emperor did. Each of his sword strokes, accompanied by the flickers of the Holy Aura that occasionally appeared when the swords clashed, made the battle appear even more intense.

Even more surprising was that the Holy Emperor was keeping up with the speed of this person.

Her guard was strong, as he wasn't from this world. However, the battle of these two people made her realize that she was wrong about this world.

These two people were much stronger than her guard. They might even be stronger than the Overlords from what she could see.

Even if her guard wasn't blackmailed with her life, she was certain that he would have been killed. It was only a matter of time.

The person who surprised her the most was the Holy Emperor. He was still so young, yet he had become so strong. Even with external help, she didn't feel as if she could catch up to him anytime soon.

Even in the Celestial Realm, he might be comparable to those rare geniuses that were the apple of the eyes of their clans.

She couldn't believe that she had looked down on this person. The more she saw him fight, the more his image improved in her eyes. Watching her long hair fly as he performed a sword dance, she felt as if he was truly the most handsome man in the world at that moment.

Each time she saw his blood splash around, she felt bad in her heart. She didn't realize that Eren was observing even the smallest of fluctuations within her expressions, even as he was putting up such a fierce act.

Looking at her expressions, he felt as if his plan was proceeding successfully. Fortunately, he didn't take a risk and used his dragon tongue to increase the charm of the Holy Emperor during the moment.

He had played his part. Now, it was time to put an end to this act. His Sword flew off his hand after clashing with the Holy Emperor's sword.

He tried to call another sword to protect himself, but it was too late. The Holy Emperor kicked his chest, sending him flying.

He crashed on a wall, which finally shattered. His body flew through the broken fall and a few other corridors before landing on the ground.

The Holy Emperor chased after Eren, disappearing from the girl's view.

On the other side, Eren started changing his clothes while screaming like a dying man who had been stabbed in the heart.

His clone also changed his clothes and look, before running away to abandon his post. There was no need for him now. He felt somewhat relieved that it was finally over.

Eren brought another random corpse from his inventory, and burned it with his holy aura beyond recognition.

He made a few more wounds on his body while lying next to the destroyed corpse, as if he had been truly exhausted.

The barrier around the place also disappeared with the death of the intruder.

Seeing the barrier disappear, the girl wondered if the battle was actually over. Hesitant, she stood up and walked towards the hole in the wall.

She traveled through the holes in the wall, soon reaching the scene of carnage where she saw a charred corpse that was beyond recognition.

Next to the body, there was a puddle of blood. Within the blood, a pale faced man was lying, his breathing being uneven as if he had gone through hell and returned.

She quickly rushed to Eren, trying to heal him. However, Eren pushed her away.

He forced his broken body up, his blood still being fresh on his clothes.

"If you are done here, you can leave. After today, we won't have anything to do with each other." Eren didn't spare a second glance at the girl.

With staggering steps, he started walking away, like a brooding hero.
