Roy stepped forward and sneered at Yahiro.

"The Demon Lord's power isn't a toy for you to covet."

An invisible pressure descended upon them, and countless Magic Bullets materialized behind Roy.

Yahiro's eyes widened in shock and fear.

He had seen Roy use this attack before and assumed he had exhausted his magic power.

That's why he had appeared to force Mio to surrender the Demon Lord's power.

But Roy was still capable of unleashing another powerful attack. This was beyond his expectations.

Before he could react, the Magic Bullets engulfed him.

When the dust settled, all the Stray Demons and Yahiro's puppet were gone.

Mio and Maria were stunned—Was this God-like being their Onii-chan?

But Mio didn't feel any fear or estrangement. She had already entrusted everything to Roy.

Yahiro—hiding in the shadows, was pale with fear. Although the one who had been destroyed was just a puppet, he could still feel the terror of those Magic Bullets.

He glanced at Roy, who remained calm and composed, then turned and fled without hesitation.

Roy didn't bother pursuing him. Yahiro might still be useful.

...

Meanwhile, Chisato Hasegawa, observing the scene from the rooftop, was also shocked.

According to her investigation, Roy was just an average human—with some magic potential.

But his power had grown tremendously in just a few days.

If she hadn't sensed any other power within him, she would have suspected that he was some powerful God in disguise.

"Onii-chan, are you alright?" Mio asked worriedly, clinging to Roy.

"I'm fine. I could go another three hundred rounds with you, Mio," Roy teased, hugging her back.

"No!" Mio protested, burying her face in his chest.

But she had forgotten that 'disobeying' her Master's orders would activate the curse.

As soon as she finished her sentence, the purple collar reappeared around her neck, and she moaned.

"Hmm? Mio, you say you don't want to?" Roy chuckled, then added with a suggestive grin, "Mio, you're on your period, right? Then I'll just have to take the back door."

Mio was speechless.

"Maria, let's go home," Roy said, taking Mio's hand.

"Okay!" Maria replied, then looked at Roy's back with a thoughtful expression.

She was considering telling him everything.

Roy's performance today had been incredible. He had become so powerful after just a few days of learning magic.

If she asked for his help, would he agree?

But she held back. Although Roy was strong—he was still no match for a Demon cadre like Zolgear.

However, she couldn't help but see Roy as a glimmer of hope for saving her mother.

....

The next few days were peaceful. Roy, Mio, and Maria went to school together as usual.

But today was different.

Due to Mio's presence, the school was attacked by a large number of Stray Demons, disrupting the lives of ordinary students.

The Hero Clan finally decided to eliminate Mio.

And the Demon faction, disappointed with Yahiro's incompetence, sent a new representative to monitor Mio.

As Roy and the girls were leaving school that day, they were intercepted by a group of four from the Hero Clan.

"Mio Naruse, you've become a threat to humans. The Hero Clan has decided to eliminate you. Surrender now," a young man with blond hair named Takashi Hayase declared.

"Roy-san, I advise you to leave Mio-san. You can't protect her this time," Yuki also said.

After spending time with him, she had developed some feelings for Roy.

"Yuki, don't bother. He's just an idiot who's been seduced by a succubus," another young man named Kyōichi Shiba scoffed.

"You're right, Onee-chan. He's not worth it. If he tries to interfere with our mission, we'll just have to kill him," a petite girl with blue hair added.

This was Kurumi Nonaka, Yuki's younger sister.

Yuki, hearing their words, remained silent.

Mio and Maria frowned. It seemed a battle was unavoidable.

"Of course, we won't fight here. We'll set up a barrier in an empty field south of here tomorrow. We expect you to be there," Takashi said arrogantly, then turned to leave.

"Heh, I don't think that will be necessary," Roy chuckled, looking at them as if they were clowns.

"What?" Takashi turned back, confused.

....

"I said we can settle this here and now," Roy repeated.

There was no one else around. This was the perfect place to deal with them.

He didn't want to waste time.

Takashi and the others scowled.

"Are you underestimating us?" Kurumi demanded angrily.

"You'll pay for your arrogance—" Takashi sneered.

"Onii-chan!" Mio and Maria looked at him worriedly.

"Don't worry, it won't take long. We have a movie to watch tomorrow, remember? I don't want to miss our date because of these guys," Roy reassured them with a smile.

Takashi and the others couldn't stand his arrogance any longer. Kurumi stepped forward.

"You overconfident fool! I'll make you regret that!" she declared.

"Oh, really?" Roy chuckled, then turned to Yuki. "Is she your sister?"

Yuki hesitated, then nodded. "Yes."

"Then I'll go easy on her."

Kurumi's face turned red with anger.

"I don't need my sister's help! I can defeat you myself!"

"Is that so? Then come at me!" Roy challenged, gesturing for her to attack.

"—If we fight here, the village elders will be furious," Kyōichi Shiba muttered with a sigh.

But Kurumi didn't care. She charged at Roy, her body surrounded by swirling winds.

She was a master of wind magic.

A small tornado formed and rushed towards Roy.

"Wind magic, huh? I can do that too," Roy said with a smirk, snapping his fingers.

A tornado several times larger than Kurumi's appeared before him.

The street was filled with howling winds, and people fled in panic.

"H-How...?!" Kurumi gasped, shocked by the power of Roy's magic.

But she quickly regained her composure. "Don't underestimate me!" she shouted, focusing her magic power.

She created a tornado equal in size to Roy's.

The two tornadoes clashed, tearing at the surroundings.

Eventually, they canceled each other out.

After all, they were just magic, not real tornadoes.

Kurumi sighed in relief.

"Hmph, you're not so tough!" she scoffed, convinced that Roy had been bluffing.

"Really?" Roy smirked, then waved his hand again. Four even more powerful tornadoes appeared, heading towards Takashi and the others.

He wasn't going to waste any more time. He would defeat them all at once.

"What...?" Takashi was stunned. He hadn't expected Roy to attack all four of them simultaneously.

Seeing the power of the tornadoes, his expression turned grim.

Even they had to be careful against magic of this caliber.

But no matter how careful they were, it was useless. Even Takashi's Byakko, his Divine Beast—couldn't withstand the force of the tornadoes.

They were completely outmatched.

"Aah!!!" Yuki and Kurumi were swept up into the air, screaming as they were tossed around by the wind.

Roy, seeing this—dispelled two of the tornadoes and gently lowered the girls to the ground.

But they lost their balance and fell again, screaming.

Roy caught them, one in each arm.

"Eh?" They blinked, surprised that they hadn't hit the ground.

They looked up and saw Roy holding them, their faces flushing as they met his gaze.

"Aah!" Kurumi suddenly yelped and jumped out of his arms, her face red with embarrassment.

"Kurumi, what's wrong?" Yuki asked, confused.

"Pervert!" Kurumi shouted at Roy.

"Ahem... sorry," Roy coughed awkwardly.

He had accidentally placed his hands in the wrong places when he caught them.

Yuki pulled Kurumi behind her, glaring at Roy suspiciously.

Roy shrugged helplessly.

Takashi and Kyōichi, who had also been caught by the tornadoes, were finally released.

They crashed to the ground with a thud.

Yuki, seeing that they were defeated, knew their mission had failed.

Roy was far stronger than they had imagined.

They were no match for him.

"Nonaka-san, take them and leave. And don't come back to cause trouble again. Otherwise—" Roy warned.

"I understand," Yuki replied, her voice trembling slightly as she met his gaze.

She knew he was serious.

She then left with Takashi and the others.

"Onii-chan is powerful!" Mio and Maria exclaimed, throwing their arms around him in admiration.
