These two were initially his intended enemies, but now that they have formed a temporary alliance, he'll let it go for now.

These people are the truly strongest people in the world.

As for the so-called true angels of heaven, they cannot be included here.

The remaining guys, including the Right Fire who instilled immense fear in the Water behind, were not even worth a second glance from Makoto Haramura.

Fire on the right?

For him, it just sounded interesting; at most, it was just a slightly larger, more movable toy, a little something to amuse himself.

But today, Makoto Haramura has finally found out.

It turns out there's a second tier in this world, namely, quasi-demon gods below the level of demon gods.

Makoto Haramura did not doubt the guy's words because the guy did indeed possess considerable strength.

Although he hadn't made a move yet, Makoto Haramura could sense a subtle but palpable sense of threat emanating from the man.

"It seems you're just one step away from becoming a true demon god."

Orelus twitched the corner of his mouth, his already gloomy face becoming even more somber.

"It really was just one step away. If that guy hadn't taken the opportunity and stolen it, I should have been the one to become the Demon God now."

resentment.

A strong sense of resentment emanated from him; even from a great distance, Makoto Haramura could still feel the intense aura of resentment wafting towards him.

"Okay, I understand now. So what are you doing here?"

"I don't think we have any connection."

Chapter 381 Need to Grow

There are two necessary conditions to become a demon god.

The first is to master all the magic in the world and integrate it.

The second is that a special ritual needs to be performed.

As a quasi-demon god, he had mastered all magic, but due to a small mistake, he failed to perform the ritual, which allowed another despicable blade to take advantage of the situation.

While there is a significant gap between a quasi-demon and a true demon, the gap between a magician and a quasi-demon is even greater, reaching the level of an entire universe.

Indeed, strictly speaking, a quasi-demon god cannot be considered a true demon god, but he has already surpassed the realm of ordinary magicians and can wield power similar to that of a demon god to a certain extent.

Therefore, there is absolutely no problem in saying that he is the strongest being below the Demon God.

"So, what brings you here?"

Makoto Haramura narrowed his eyes, and a dangerous aura emanated from him, pressing directly towards Orelus opposite him.

The visitor is evil?

That doesn't seem to be the case; I didn't sense any fighting spirit or killing intent from this guy.

The purpose of this guy is unclear.

If this were anywhere else, he wouldn't bother with this guy and might even just walk away.

However, this is a talent workshop, and he already had the idea of excluding it.

The somber atmosphere even made Misaki Shokuhou's expression subtly grave.

"I came here to protect the raw stones."

Orelus stared directly at Makoto Haramura, his gaze utterly indifferent.

"Academy City wants to gather all the original gem users here for protection. I don't agree with this approach. In order to warn Academy City, I have to come here and defeat you, the strongest original gem in the world."

At this point, Orelers paused for a moment.

"It's just that when I got here, I overheard the conversation we just had."

"You're not a Primal Stone user, are you?"

Orelus spoke with absolute certainty, as if his words were already a fact.

That's exactly how it is.

As a quasi-demon god, he knows all the secrets of this world.

It's safe to say there's nothing he doesn't know, so he was able to recognize Haramura Makoto the moment he saw him.

This man is definitely not a natural-born Stone user.

The energy pulsating within him was unfamiliar even to him.

"Indeed not."

"The so-called 'Original Stone user' was just a cover-up; it was Aleister who forced me into it."

"but."

Upon hearing Orelels' words, Haramura Makoto couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, his expression utterly speechless.

“Normally, if you want to protect those Primal Stone users, you should go and defeat the instigator who exists in Academy City.”

"What kind of thought process led you to directly approach the strongest Stone user?"

"This guy is definitely out of his mind," Makoto Haramura was certain of. "His brain is abnormal."

Upon hearing Haramura Makoto's words, Orelels' expression faltered slightly, and he fell into a brief state of contemplation, as if pondering whether he truly thought differently from normal people.

"In any case, in my opinion, this is the most effective method."

"If we defeat the strongest Originium, even the higher-ups of Academy City will become more cautious and wary."

Orelus's goal is to protect these gems from being taken away by the mysterious higher-ups of Academy City.

In his eyes, the higher-ups of Academy City were definitely not protecting these raw stones; such a forceful act of seizure must be because they were worried about losing precious experimental materials.

He absolutely would not allow such a thing to happen.

In the few days since he arrived in Academy City, he has witnessed countless dark experiments. The Primal Stones absolutely cannot be handed over to Academy City like this.

This is Orelels' judgment.

"Actually, you're quite troublesome. You should be grateful for the powerful strength you possess."

Is this guy a good person?

This is of course beyond doubt.

He's willing to go to great lengths to help with things that have nothing to do with him; his level of kindness is probably comparable to that of Kamijou-senpai.

However, the problem is that this guy's actions are quite contradictory.

Of course, to put it more bluntly, this guy has become so used to solving all problems with force that he doesn't even consider whether his methods of solving problems might cause any issues.

"Alright, since I'm not a Primal Stone user, you can leave now."

"The strongest one is the Slicer King, he's a genuine raw gem, he'd be happy to fight you."

Without hesitation, Makoto Haramura betrayed his comrade-in-arms whom he had only met once.

Anyway, Orelus is a good guy. He only approached Gunhachi Shogi to show his power to Academy City. He definitely won't let Gunhachi Shogi die. He probably won't even be seriously injured.

Orelus will demonstrate his power with absolute strength.

Similarly, Xiaoban Junba himself is always fighting, or on his way to fight.

With such a powerful guy coming to fight, how could Xiaoban Junba possibly back down?

These two are definitely mutually attracted; he would never feel embarrassed or guilty.

"No, I will definitely go find him, but I must defeat you first before I can find him."

Orelus maintained his calm gaze, staring intently at Makoto Haramura.

"what?"

"I'm not a raw gemstone."

Makoto Haramura's patience was gradually wearing thin.

Before, his tone was at most unfriendly, but now it's quite bad.

"Didn't you just say that?"

"We need to prioritize dealing with the people who caused the problems. If I heard correctly, you just decided to use your power to steal the Primal Stone users."

"Now I can conclude that you are the one who created the problem."

The magic power around Orelus surged and surged, and terrifying energy fluctuated around him.

"I don't deal with the problem of the creators because I'm too lazy to pursue the truth. Pursuing the truth is troublesome and a waste of time."

"Now that the truth is right in front of me, I don't mind just dealing with it as is."

"As for the strongest Originium, I will deal with him after I defeat you."

"Really."

Makoto Haramura stood up and sighed softly.

"Looks like I'll be busy for a while."

"But this is fine."

Makoto Haramura's gaze sharpened.

Since this guy is a quasi-demon god, he can also trace the power level of a true demon god in reverse to prepare for the future.

Moreover, he also possesses 103,000 books of demonic arts within his body.

"Come with me, Orelus, this world cannot withstand the explosions of our battle."

Makoto Haramura let out a low groan, then waved his hand, and a silvery mist spread out, encroaching towards Orelels...

Orelels' eyes flickered, and he stood there without any intention of resisting. In the blink of an eye, he was enveloped by the thick fog and disappeared into the workshop along with Haramura Makoto.

……

The next day arrived immediately.

At noon on the second day, inside the windowless building of the urban legend in Academy City.

In a huge liquid tank, resembling a petri dish, filled with red nutrient solution, a man wearing a green surgical gown, hanging upside down with long, loose silver hair, slowly opened his eyes.

"Are they back already?"

"He does seem to be a qualified collaborator."

The sound, which sounded like it was synthesized mechanically, came from all directions of the room.

Of course, he wasn't the only one in the room.

Opposite him was a young man wearing a beach chair, beach shorts, and flip-flops, with blond hair that looked like a hedgehog.

(You're back? What's back?)

A sense of unease began to rise in the man's mind.

However, even if he was curious, he couldn't ask, since the man in front of him was quite dangerous.

There are things you shouldn't ask casually.

Although he was a spy here, he knew all too well that asking the wrong questions could lead to his death.

A virtual screen suddenly appeared in front of the man in the green robe.

"Please come over here."
