My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

He wanted to devour the ability right now, but he didn\'t want to let the guards see him eating someone\'s heart.

There were already too many rumors floating around about him being a true demon. He didn\'t want to blame your rumors.

With the man dead, it was only a matter of time before his body was going to lose the disguise. He couldn\'t let that happen. The Guards had already started approaching them after seeing him kill the person.

Right before Eren\'s eyes, the man\'s disguise was removing itself. His face and physique was slowly changing to his real self.

To protect this secret, Eren placed a talisman on the man\'s body. In an instant, his body lit in fierce flames that hid him from the view. The flames acted as a shroud, hiding the lifeless hero\'s body from the Guards.

He could use the flames to get rid of Li Yunfeng\'s body as well, but that would have been too obvious. Once it was investigated, the people were going to know that the talisman from the sect was used.

On the other hand, he didn\'t have to care about that here. He could kill this person without worries, even if it was in front of everyone\'s eyes.

Trisen was dead, unable to protect his body from the flames. Within seconds, his body turned to ashes that flew away with the wind. Only the scorching mark on the ground was left behind.

"I knew that person was lying. There\'s no way someone like him would know Elder Ren." One of the Guards said, stopping a few meters away from Eren.

Eren didn\'t even have to offer an explanation. The Guards made a justification themselves. Since the person was a liar and wasted Elder Ren\'s time, he was killed. There was nothing more to it.

Eren turned around, quite pleased with the actions of the Guards. He didn\'t show it on his face though. His face was still emotionless. If anything, his cold gaze made the guards hesitate, making them wonder if they made a mistake.

"You failed your duties, not verifying his lies. Because of you, my time was wasted. The next time this happens, your ashes will be the one flying in the air..."

Eren walked past the guards who gulped heavily. It was true that if Eren wanted, he could kill them. The sect wasn\'t even going to punish him. That was how high the authority of the Core Elder was.

Eren wasn\'t sure if another hero was going to come meet the so-called spy from the Hero Academy. If that happened, he had to be more careful.

For that, he needed to turn the guards at the sect entrance to his side. And what better way to ensure obedience than fear mixed with a few lies.

"One of you, accompany me back and explain why you failed in your duties," he said, rising in the air.

Both of the guards were scared to accompany him, looking at each other\'s faces. But in the end, one of them clenched his fist and decided to follow Eren.

If they wasted Eren\'s time, both of them were going to die. In the end, one had to take the risk.

The guard followed Eren back to the library, not realizing that the explanation was just an excuse. He was mainly a witness of his whereabouts.

Still, Eren didn\'t waste this opportunity. He let the man explain what had happened and why they decided to inform Eren.

"Although we didn\'t believe him, we thought that there was still a small chance of him telling the truth. Next time something like that happens, we will be more thorough."

Eren heard the guard patiently, not interrupting him. For an Elder, silence was important at times as it was also a tactic.

Eren\'s silence scared the guard who thought Eren still hadn\'t forgiven them. With each passing second of silence, he grew more restless.

"Some people are truly courageous. The man thought that just because he begged me, I would let his son enter the sect. Pathetic fool."

After a long time, Eren broke the silence. He gave the hero a fake identity as someone who lied about knowing him because he wanted to meet him and beg for his son\'s future.

The guard also realized that it made sense. They had truly failed in understanding the man\'s intentions. They were fooled by that middle aged man just because he made up stories about some ring with such confidence.

"Next time there are people who claim to know me or want to meet me, I want you to inform me directly. You don\'t have to go through the extra steps of letting others know."

Eren handed over a communication token that allowed the guard to deliver a message to him. If another hero actually came, he wanted to be the first to know it so he could handle it stealthily.

From now on, these guards were his informant, and after that they were the guards of the sect.

The guard accepted the communication token, realizing the responsibility that came with it. At the same time, he also knew what a great opportunity it was to get close to an Elder.

"I will not disappoint you!" he exclaimed, brimming devotion,

Eren arrived at the library. Only after he entered the library, the guard returned. He had completed his responsibility as a witness without even realizing.

....

Another day passed. Eren didn\'t leave the library, wondering how long it was going to take before someone discovered that Li Yunfeng and his disciple had gone missing.

He wanted to return to his disciple to see her progress. He was also getting somewhat impatient.

\'How foolish are the people of the sect? More than a day had passed and no one noticed it? Did I overestimate them?\' Eren thought, sitting before an opened book that he had already finished reading.

He was wondering if he should send Yelen to check. Amidst his thought, he heard the sound of rushed footsteps on the other side of the curtain.

"Elder Ren! Something big has happened!" The Librarian\'s voice came while Eren smiled behind the curtain. Finally he could leave this boring place.
