The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 41: Nether Fiend

“My name is Razmun. I will be your teacher for the Dark Race Assassination Class.”

When Teacher Razmun spoke those words, a solemn aura invaded the entire auditorium. Even Noble Families did not dare to be arrogant when it came to the Dark Races.

Razmun nodded as he saw the expression of the cadets. Next, he waved his hand, and the virtual screen above him showed three groups of obscure figures.

“As all of you should know by now, when we talk about the Dark Races, we refer to the Infernus Daemon Race, Legio Eldritch Race, and the most dreaded of all, the Atrox Immortus Race.”

Cain clenched his fist as he heard that last part. The image of that Atrox still hunted him, and the idea of what would have happened had he not managed to escape terrified him.

He did not feel ashamed since, even with all that fear, he remained courageous in the face of danger and refused to sacrifice an innocent person.

‘Courage is not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it.’

.....

That was a quote his father mentioned several times to Cain. The one who uttered those words was a great man from the Old World.

Cain was not lost in his thoughts for long as Razmun carried on soon after.

“To know how to kill someone, you must first understand them. I will begin with the Infernus Daemon Race. When it comes to Godslayer Humankind, they are the most similar in both physiology and culture.”

Above Razmun, the screen focused on the first group of obscure figures before they came to light, showing a bulky Abyssal Demon, a petite Hell Devil, and a third figure. The last ones had silver skin, and on his forehead, there was a third eye.

“The Infernus Daemon Race has three main Lineages. The Abyssal Demon, Hell Devil, and Nether Fiend. Each of those Lineages has countless subbranches, but that is not the topic of this class. If you want to learn about them, you can use your military credits to purchase books from the Empire Science Academy.”

Cain and many other cadets focused on the last Infernus Daemon Race’s Lineage that Razmun mentioned. They all took part in the Military Academy Secret Trial, so most faced Abyssal Demons or Hell Devils, but none ever encountered a Nether Fiend.

Razmun noticed the curiosity of the cadets regarding Nether Fiends, but he made the virtual screen focus on the large man with obsidian skin.

“This is an Abyssal Demon. Due to the characteristics of their Lineage, 99.9% percent of them embark on the Astral Rebirth Path of Power. Regarding their behavior, they are ferocious warriors that usually disdain any form of traps or schemes and would instead embark on a frontal battle.”

Following that, Razmun began to show different images of the Abyssal Demon’s anatomy. He explained the position of the heart and other vital organs, the best way to cause massive damage to them, and how to defend in case of a counterattack.

The explanation was boring and somewhat repetitive, but all the cadets put their full attention into it as it could save their lives in the future.

“Now that we are over with the Abyssal Demons let’s begin with the Hell Devils.”

The virtual screen focused on the petite woman with red skin and small horns.

“Hell Devils usually embark on the path most suitable for their Lineage. That is why all those you face will surely be Essence Wave Cultivators. Unlike Abyssal Demons, Hell Devils are fond of schemes, making them hazardous targets. They might feign weakness, only to draw you into a death trap.”

Just like he did with Abyssal Demons, Razmun explained the anatomy of Hell Devils, their weak points, how to land deadly blows, and the most suitable defenses against them.

Once Razmun was over with the Hell Devils, it was finally time to focus on the last of the three main Lineages of the Infernus Daemon Race, the Nether Fiend Race.

“When it comes to battle strength, the Nether Fiend Lineage is the weakest of the three, but make no mistake, they are dangerous. Their power comes from intelligence and innate talent in professions like Wave Crafters and Rune Masters. The creations at their disposal are incredibly deadly.”

Razmun’s face showed a level of seriousness even greater than when he spoke about Hell Devils and Abyssal Demons.

“You will not usually find them on the battlefield, not because they are cowards, but because they are better at strategy. If you ever storm the enemy’s encampment, do your best to kill as many of them as possible. Believe me when I say that every Nether Fiend kill is worth as much as ten of their counterparts.”

Cain could not help but show awe as he heard that. Nether Fiends were the weakest regarding battle strength, but their impact on the battlefield made them the most dangerous.

Razmun explained the best way to land deadly blows in a Nether Fiend. He was much more detailed in this information than the one related to Abyssal Demons or Hell Devils and took a lot more time as well.

By the time Razmun finished with the Nether Fiends, the class had ended, and everybody headed back to their rooms.
