Volume 3 + Chapter 83: Old Bastard Biden
The inner demon Xia Yi encountered a huge difficulty at this moment.
The young lady working as the shop assistant was asking her whether she wanted to buy bubble tea.
Of course, she didn’t want to.
Xia Yi had given her body’s control over to her inner demon, precisely so the inner demon could come and buy bubble tea.
This kind of behavior—wasn’t it a complete insult to her?
But she also didn’t know why she ended up standing in front of the bubble tea shop.
Looking back, there was indeed quite a crowd, the line was very long, and people behind her were already urging her to hurry up and place her order.
“Junior, have you decided yet?” The shop assistant smiled. “So, do you want the taro boba milk tea, or something else?”
“Th-then…”
The inner demon Xia Yi pulled out some money and placed it on the counter.
Her face turned a bit red. She lowered her head, not daring to meet the shop assistant’s eyes.
The shop assistant took the money, understood her choice, and placed a cup of taro boba milk tea in front of her.
“All right, junior. Here’s your taro boba milk tea~”
The inner demon Xia Yi didn’t say anything. She picked up the bubble tea and ran off.
“What a shy and introverted but cute junior,” the shop assistant sighed as she watched the inner demon Xia Yi leave.
…
“I… I actually bought it!”
The inner demon Xia Yi sat on an outdoor bench on the street, staring at the cold, icy cup of bubble tea on her lap.
She couldn’t believe it.
Why had she become interested in such a foolish drink made by foolish humans??
Could it be that ever since Xia Yi fell and became part of the dragon race, the subtle changes in her had begun to affect her as well?
Impossible!
The inner demon Xia Yi shook her head.
Her beliefs had always been firm—she must kill Xia Yi, take over the body. That’s what an inner demon is supposed to do.
How could an inner demon coexist peacefully with the original host?
She thought throwing away the bubble tea was the only proper way to prove that she was the real one in charge.
If she really drank it according to Xia Yi’s will, Xia Yi would definitely think they were the same kind of person.
Could there be anything more humiliating than that?
But… but…
The inner demon Xia Yi couldn’t move.
This wasn’t just any bubble tea. It was taro boba milk tea.
Just thinking about that made her waver.
“…Maybe… just try a sip?”
The inner demon Xia Yi thought about it. She could try it, and then throw it away—there was still time.
Just a test.
After all, just one sip, then spitting it out—that didn’t count as really drinking it.
“Alright, that’s the plan!”
The inner demon Xia Yi removed the plastic seal, picked up the straw, and poked it in.
She shook the cup, hearing the sound of the ice swirling inside. Her mood lifted. A slight smile even formed at the corners of her mouth.
Just the smell alone made her heart fill with anticipation.
This was the first time the inner demon Xia Yi had ever felt this kind of emotion.
Full of expectation, she raised the cup, just about to bite onto the straw—when a shadow fell over her, covering her body.
Someone had stepped in front of her.
“Student Xia Yi, seeing me—don’t you have anything to say?”
The inner demon Xia Yi lowered the bubble tea and looked up to see an old man dressed in the senior instructor’s uniform of Laurel Tree Academy, staring at her.
“…I don’t have time to mess with you, old bastard Biden.”
The inner demon Xia Yi’s mood was completely ruined. The smile vanished from her face.
She didn’t care about this guy’s intentions. She just wanted to go somewhere quiet and deserted, to taste what this bubble tea really was like. So, she stood up to leave—completely ignoring the old man.
“Student Xia Yi, do you want to be punished? You’ve already seriously violated school rules—not only skipping class without reason but also disrespecting your teacher.”
Biden grew angry seeing Xia Yi so arrogant and even verbally abusive.
He had been a great magic master for many years, having taught countless outstanding students.
His seniority was unmatched. Many high-ranking mages in the human world would bow their heads and call him ‘teacher’ when they saw him.
No one had ever dared to insult him like this to his face.
“Student Xia Yi, stop right now. Come back and apologize. Explain clearly why you made this mistake. I may consider not pursuing the matter further!” Biden warned.
However, the inner demon Xia Yi’s back moved farther away with no sign of stopping or responding.
“Very well, this is your choice.”
Biden summoned his staff and knocked it on the ground, releasing a magic circle. Chanting quickly, chains flew out from the magic array and wrapped around the inner demon Xia Yi’s arm, pulling her back.
Smack.
That magic caused the bubble tea in the inner demon Xia Yi’s hand to fall and splatter on the ground.
“You were born of nobility, yet you have no manners. Do I need to discipline you on behalf of your family, Student Xia Yi?” Biden questioned.
“……”
The inner demon Xia Yi stared at the bubble tea spilled all over the ground, eyes wide.
At this moment, she had only one thought.
Kill the old bastard Biden.
Xia Yi swung her arm, and the chains were instantly shattered into pieces.
“…Huh?”
Biden was slightly surprised.
He never expected such a seemingly frail body to explode with such terrifying strength.
The control magic he had used just now—normally even battle-hardened adventurers would find it hard to resist.
But this black-haired loli didn’t even use magic—how did she break his control spell?
Was it some kind of special magical artifact? Or a scroll?
While Biden was still thinking, the inner demon Xia Yi slowly turned around.
“Student Xia Yi, what kind of trick did you use to break my control spel—”
Before he could finish his question, his voice stopped.
The moment he met the gaze of the inner demon Xia Yi, he felt a killing intent like a tsunami crash over him, drowning him—his mind went blank.
It felt like his heart was being squeezed. With just a little more pressure, the other party could crush it.
That feeling was—
Death.
Biden could barely think anymore. Now he could only rely on his instincts, as if he were facing a terrifying witch.
He immediately raised his magic circle and began chanting, preparing to unleash a powerful, destructive spell. Dazzling lightning had already torn up the bricks on the ground.
A huge amount of magic power gathered, disrupting the surroundings. People on the street began to notice something was wrong.
“What’s happening?!”
“Isn’t that… Professor Biden? What is he doing?!”
“Professor Biden’s gone mad—he’s going to kill someone!!”
The passersby screamed in terror and began to flee. With their strength, they couldn’t stop this, nor could they protect themselves—they could only run.
The street quickly descended into chaos.
“Worm. You’ve chosen your death.”
In the eyes of the inner demon Xia Yi was only disdain. She raised her hand—preparing to summon the Holy Sword.
