[Keltic_Spirit: Counting tally: 2 Fun flashback, I do wonder how your devil and spirit are doing? Are they having fun? I also wonder what the mechanism behind implanting her consciousness is? Could be used to our advantage.]

…
"What?" Aurora sucked a cold breath, not expecting such an attack. She had indeed miscalculated it, showing how inexperienced she was. She gritted her teeth, thinking, 'What should I do? Do I have to turn around and handle those blood servants? But it will be too much for the twins to handle the rest of the blood servants while taking care of those high level blood servants.'
Aurora gritted her teeth, never thinking that she would face such a dilemma.
The blood servants were getting close to them. She could see them looping around the woods and gradually approaching. It would only take one or two minutes before they reached this position, so Aurora didn't have a lot of time to think about the solution.
The closer they were, the more frustrated she became. There was no solution coming into her head. Even the advice that Theo gave earlier wouldn't work.
Suddenly, black circles started to appear outside the forest. Beasts emerged from these circles as though they were made of shadows.
"This is what it means to be a leader. Sometimes, we get so fixated on our own ideals that we don't expect things to go awry. During that time, someone will end up making a sacrifice.
"This is my lesson for you. If you want to be a leader, create an open plan. No matter how you do things, there are times when things will go awry. However, a simple plan will allow you to be more flexible.
"I will deal with those blood servants, so you can continue fighting with the twins." Theo landed next to her while patting her head.
Those shadow beasts were running toward the blood servants. Noticing the essence in those beasts, the blood servants headed straight to the incoming beasts, treating them as the biggest threats.
Roar!
Roar!
The two sides let out a series of roars. The shadow beasts leaped into the air and pounced on those blood servants, ripping them apart with their sharp teeth.
The blood servants were also fighting back, but while some of them were able to fight against the shadow beasts, the latter were just Theo's illusion.
Theo instantly regenerated them and continued fighting the blood servants.
"Teacher…" Aurora's body trembled. She would like to apologize for her mistake, but she knew this wasn't the right time.
She slapped her cheeks with her hands, regaining her focus.
"I understand. I'll finish the mission first before thinking about it."
Theo smiled as Aurora went back to the others.
At the same time, Theo opened the comments and read them for a bit.
"I see. The flashback is successful. I can use it to reply to the comments in the future and give you a more detailed explanation. As for my demon and spirit… They haven't done anything together after I gave them their own space. And this consciousness… I think you're talking about the Crimson Witch instead of Valentine. Well, I can't answer that question since I haven't seen the Crimson Witch herself.
"Moving on… I can't really show favorites as a teacher, you know. Besides, these three still haven't shown their super growth yet. The same applies to Jayden and Serena. It's better to wait for them yet. Who knows? Your opinion might change."
Theo chuckled before noticing something in the forest. 'No… It's not inside the forest. Outside the forest… I see. It seems that the situation is going to be uncontrollable very soon. As for my students, they have to grow during this battle if they want to make a contribution…' Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire
Theo looked at his students first before turning to his sword. 'It seems that it won't be long before I can use you.'
However, Theo noticed something in what he saw. Luca and Lucas were actually staring at his shadow beasts, which were made of illusion, as though they had figured out something.
"Barrier…" Luca muttered with an astounded expression.
"Illusion, huh?" Lucas squinted his eyes.
Both of them exchanged looks as though they knew what each other was thinking. With how both of them raised their eyebrows at the same time, it seemed that they reached the same conclusion. "Both?"
…
While the students were fighting against the blood servants, the people stationed outside the forest became tense.
"Sir… There are so many blood servants. Are we going to be alright? Are we going to be turned into one of them?" A soldier couldn't help but ask with a pale face.
"Don't worry. According to the information, the one making the arrangement is the famous teacher from the World Union Academy, Theodore Griffith. Just look at your front…"
The soldier turned his head around, seeing the uneven ground with several layers of ditches.
Yes, they had been using their manpower to dig up ditches. Even the witches helped them with this.
They dug up the ground and used that soil to make the ground between the two ditches even higher.
"I don't know what those ditches mean, but I'm sure of one thing. Her Majesty brings such a person to solve the situation, not to make it worse. Just look at those blood servants, some are looping outside the forest, but they have been intercepted by summoned creatures. It's clear that they are thinning their numbers down."
"R-Right?" The soldier looked a bit calmer. He looked at the forest with a determined expression, believing in Theo and his students.
However, he couldn't help but find something rather disturbing. He pointed at the front while asking, "That's… What is that? Why do I see another human approaching the forest? It's a human, right? Not a blood servant…"
