Became a Demon with Pregnancy System-Chapter 167: Beast Field

This brat...

He had the same cocky attitude as his teacher back in the day.

"A little bit of strength, and you already love showing off, huh?" Tony muttered under his breath.

He sighed. Xavier really raised a troublemaker.

"Alright," Tony finally said.

"This match is over. Celestial Academy wins."

His voice echoed across the battlefield, officially declaring the end of the tournament match.

"Rest up," Tony continued, turning to the students. "The upcoming field exercises will be even more dangerous. Be prepared."

With that, the old dean turned and walked away, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, Monica Winters remained standing in place, her gaze locked on Luke.

Her expression was complicated.

She replayed Tony’s words in her head.

Even if she had used her Ice Crystal Bow, she wouldn’t have been able to defeat Luke.

She had felt the intense pressure of that Hellfire Stone, but as a mid-tier mage, she couldn’t fully grasp its power.

She had convinced herself that her Ice Bow could rival it.

But now, after hearing Tony’s assessment, she wasn’t so sure anymore.

"Luke," Monica said softly, still watching him carefully.

"I’ll remember you."

She turned and left the arena without another word.

The rest of Imperial Capital Academy’s students could only stare at Luke, their expressions frozen in various states of disbelief.

Most had their mouths open, as if they wanted to say something—

But they simply couldn’t find the words.

High-level magic.

Soul-tier seeds.

Specialized talents.

For any one of these to be possessed by a student was considered a miracle.

But Luke?

He had all three.

And he was their age.

It was mind-shattering.

Even Liam Yates, the Imperial Capital instructor, looked visibly shaken.

Just earlier, he had been so confident.

But now...

He looked as if he had seen a ghost.

"You... you can’t be a freshman. You must have used some kind of dark magic to alter your age!"

Noah Truffle suddenly screamed, his face contorted in rage.

Luke didn’t even look at him.

He simply turned away, calling out to his team.

"Let’s go."

Bella White, Nate Dawson, and Logan Hayes immediately followed, barely glancing at Noah.

Self-righteous "geniuses" always lost their minds when confronted by a true genius.

Luke didn’t have the time to waste on him.

He patted Sophia Root on the shoulder as they walked.

"Sophia, you get to pick dinner tonight. Make it worth it."

Sophia beamed, nodding excitedly.

"Yes, sir! We’re going all out!"

She was basking in the aftermath of victory, soaking up all the attention from the Imperial Capital girls who were now sneaking glances at her.

Even if Luke was the real star of the match, Sophia felt like she had hit the jackpot just by being on his team.

As the team left the arena, Luke counted the group.

"Nate, Bella, Logan, Marissa, Zoe— good. You guys get to handle the next phase yourselves."

On an abandoned railway, Luke stood in front of the Celestial Academy students.

"The school arranged for us to do field training in Jinlin Desert City," Luke explained.

"But I’m just here to watch. You guys will be doing all the work."

The team exchanged glances before nodding.

They were ready.

Every demon has its own beast field—a natural aura of dominance that allows them to control lesser creatures.

For slaves, generals, commanders, and monarchs, the strength of this beast field determines their hierarchy.

The stronger the beast field, the more powerful the demon itself.

Luke was no different.

Even in his human form, the compression of his beast field was several times weaker than when he transformed.

But even so—

It was still a monarch-level beast field.

Lower-level creatures, especially general-tier demons, wouldn’t dare approach him.

Luke found this... inconvenient.

"Marissa, Zoe," Luke muttered. "Maybe I should head to Jinlin Deserted City alone and let you guys go separately?"

He sighed.

If this continued, every demon along the way would just bow before him.

That wouldn’t be any fun.

"It’s fine," Marissa replied, smirking. "Just keep an eye on our safety."

Zoe nodded.

There was no real threat as long as Luke was around.

"This demon-slaying weapon," Luke continued, handing a long crimson blade to Bella White, "is for your protection."

The sword shimmered with a deep red glow, an eerie wolf shadow moving along the blade.

If one stared closely, the wolf seemed alive, shifting across the steel.

It was a reward for Lenora Quinn’s pregnancy—Wolf Punishment.

Its effect?

An attack ten times stronger than the user’s current level.

Easily one of the best magic weapons in existence.

"When you’re in danger, just inject magic into it," Luke explained.

Bella hesitated, eyeing the blade.

"Luke, are you sure you’ll be fine alone?" she asked.

"Yeah, Jinlin Deserted City isn’t dangerous for him," Zoe chuckled, waving her hand dismissively.

Luke grinned.

"That’s the spirit."

Then, he turned to Marissa.

"If anything happens, just summon me."

"Yeah, yeah, I will," Marissa nodded.

With her spiritual connection to Luke, she could instantly summon him no matter the distance.

"You guys take care. I’ll see you in the city," Luke said.

Just as he was about to leave—

"You’re not escaping me," Monica Winters suddenly spoke.

Luke sighed in defeat.

Monica had been shadowing him ever since the match.

This was getting annoying. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"You’re too slow," Luke said with a smirk. "I’ll go first."

Monica’s eyes narrowed.

"Run all you want," she said coolly.

Luke shook his head.

This woman was stubborn as hell.

Still—he had things to do.

Summoning his Wind Wings, Luke shot into the sky, heading straight for Jinlin Deserted City.

"A dual-element high-tier mage?!"

A student from Imperial Capital Academy exclaimed in shock as Luke took off.

"It’s definitely dark magic!" Noah Truffle growled, his fists clenching.

Monica’s eyes twitched slightly.

Something inside her snapped.

A shackle, deep in her core, had suddenly disappeared.

She didn’t understand what it was, but it only happened when she watched Luke.

For now, she blamed it on her competitiveness.
