I Became the Demon Grand Duke in the Academy - Chapter 163



163 – transfer student at the academy – 11

“You treat the spear too much like a tool.”

“There, you should have attached your body instead of taking it off.”

“Did your brain harden as well while you were sealed?”

“To think that this was the church’s hound. It’ll be like a puppy.”

“Wield and widen the distance!”

When I was sitting side by side with Rosé and watching Paimon and Yukel fight, Wow! A voice came from the side.

“hmm?”

“… … cellar?”

Our eyes meet with Rosé, who is chewing something hard.

“Rosé, what are you eating?”

mess. mess. gulp.

Rosé answered with a bright smile after swallowing all the food she was chewing.

“Popcorn! Gregory-sama, would you like to eat too?”

Rosé smiled brightly as she handed me the popcorn she had placed next to her.

Popcorn in this situation… … .

“Good.”

After all, popcorn is really good to eat while watching a fight.

When I accept the popcorn that Rosé gave me and I sit comfortably and try to eat it, Rosé grabs my wrist and glares at me.

“I didn’t mean to take it!”

“… … I’m sorry.”

“Place it in the middle and eat it!”

“okay.”

Rosé puts the popcorn between us and smiles brightly. Rosé, who started munching popcorn again, begins to focus on the battle between Eukel and Paimon.

“It must have been right for Yukel to go half a beat slower there. If that was the case, Paimon-sama’s rhythm would have been disturbed.”

“It would have been more efficient to let that attack go to the side rather than receiving it… … .”

“It hurts!”

Is it because Rosé has already reached a considerable level in swordsmanship? Not only did they have very different eyes from mine, but they seemed to keep learning something just by looking at them.

Maybe about 30 more minutes passed like that. Leaving behind Eukel, who had completely fallen to the floor, Paimon walked towards this place, wiping the sweat from his brow as if feeling refreshed.

“It would be good to end here today. Maybe because I’m older, I get tired quickly if I move too hard.”

What would a person who swung a sword continuously for about an hour without a break say… … .

Paimon, who puts the sword back on the display case and uses magic to purify himself.

“… … After all, magic is convenient.”

“hmm? You mean clean magic? Gregory, are you not able to use it?”

“Originally, I didn’t use magic well, so it can’t be helped.”

“Then how do you clean yourself after a battle?”

“My body is always clean because it constantly exudes an oily liquid.”

“Ugh! That’s right.”

“Of course, when in human form, I keep it clean by taking a shower or transforming twice.”

In a way, I thought it might be one of the greatest strengths of this body. Just by transforming twice, I could solve not only my hair style, but also the cleanliness of my body and the washing of my clothes all at once.

“By the way, that Eukel is also unusual. Maybe it’s because it’s been sealed for a long time, but it seems like its body is definitely stiff, but in the middle of it, it’s been threatening attacks.”

“is it?”

“Yes, if you continue to be beaten by me or by Marvas as you are now, you will soon be able to go back to the days when you were called hounds.”

If Paimon was able to say that, he would surely be able to grow sufficiently soon.

Well, if this is enough, I can confidently say that today has definitely helped Levinport adapt to academy life.

No, if you think about it, is this academy life? Well, since I introduced you to the student council president, there shouldn’t be any complaints.

“Yes, Gregory. Roger. There is something I want to ask of you.”

“… … do you ask?”

“It’s not difficult. Didn’t you become Rosé’s summon this time? So… … I also want to go to the academy myself.”

“you?”

“Are you Paimon?”

“hard… … would you?”

Rosé vigorously shakes her head in both directions at Paimon who asks cautiously.

“Not at all! It would be great if Paimon came to the academy! Play with other kids too! I think it will be fun!”

Hearing Rosé’s words, his expression brightened.

“But why are you suddenly saying you want to go to the academy, Paimon?”

When I asked with pure curiosity, Paimon twisted his hair and blushed in embarrassment.

“That, that… … . It reminded me of something Lily said in the past.”

“Lily?”

“I told you that the academy was a very enjoyable place. New friends, new studies, and even delicious restaurants. Every time even Marvas comes to play with me, someone has talent, someone has done something today. I’m talking about this, wouldn’t you be curious about yourself?”

Was Marvas also talking about the academy?

“Above all, since I made a contract with Rosé, that dragon won’t be able to do anything to me. I don’t have to bother anymore, but I thought it wouldn’t be bad to go on a field trip as Rosé’s guardian.”

“Rosé’s guardian? Rosé’s guardian must be me, right?”

“Since I am also a pet that signed a contract with Rosé, can I also be called a guardian? Gregory.”

When we suddenly glared at Paimon, who claimed to be Rosé’s protector, Rosé stood in the middle of us and spread both arms and shouted.

“I am your protector! So don’t fight over things like this!”

“Who is the guardian?!”

“Who’s the guardian?”

“Eh?”

Even so, you’re not a bit of a protector… … .

***

“Hurray! Mr. Walker! I’m home!”

Perhaps excited just by returning to the academy, Rose finds Walker sweeping the floor near the academy’s main entrance, raises her hand and greets Walker with a bright smile.

At this, Walker stopped sweeping the broom and laughed while looking at Rosé.

“Miss Rose seems to be in a good mood today too? Did something happen?”

“yes! I made a contract with a new summoned beast!”

“Oh, that is something to be very happy about. Congratulations.”

“hehehe, thank you!”

“Oh, did the new transfer student there have a good time watching Sumonia?”

This time, Walker asks a question to Yukel, who was standing behind Rosé.

“denial. I got hit hard.”

“Ahahahaha! Still, it seems that he has been training hard. Everyone, please enter carefully.”

“thank you! Mr. Walker!”

“thanks.”

“Good job. Walker.”

Leaving behind the walker who waved at us with a smile on her face, Rosé walked towards the dormitory while hesitant as if she wanted to quickly return to the dormitory and rest.

“Oh, Yukel said he was living in a church. Are you going back to church right away?”

Hearing Rosé’s question, Yukel looked up at the sky and shook his head.

“homecoming. until done. It is still afternoon.”

“Ah~ I told you to come back before sunset, but the sun is still up, so it’s okay?”

Yukel nodded at Rosé’s interpretation. In response, Rose held Yukel’s hand and said.

“Then do you want to go to my room to play? Let me introduce you to my friends.”

“… … friend?”

“yes! Yukel is my partner, so I thought it would be nice to introduce him to my friends. Oh, and one of them is already known to Eukel.”

“… … ?”

Yukel tilted his head.

“Priscilla and Heinbern. you know? Princess of the Empire!”

As soon as he heard Priscilla’s name, Eukel stood still.

“Ukel?”

I explained to Rosé, who looked as if he had no idea why Yukel was reacting this way.

“Do you not remember who destroyed the dormitory in the past and who defended it even after getting injured? Rosé.”

“yes? uh… … what? Yes?”

“Is that all? If you recall what happened in the Empire, you should pray that Priscilla doesn’t attack Eukel as soon as she sees it.”

In a way, Yukel was a person who was no different from an enemy to Priscilla. Yukel himself knows that, so he must have reacted like that.

“Anyway, you’ll find out someday. Wouldn’t it be nice to know quickly? Even Priscilla will understand if I speak well.”

However, Rose’s words were not wrong. After all, if he put off this story until later, it would be like hiding this fact from Priscilla.

“Don’t worry too much, Yukel. I’ll tell you well. Instead, can Yukel apologize to Priscilla?”

Yukel is silent for a moment at Rosé’s question.

For Yukel, who had just been released from the seal, the order of the Holy Church would have been absolute.

From the Holy Church, who already hates demons, to the task of dealing with demons in the academy. Even if it was Yukel, the situation could not have been helped.

“… … agreement.”

Rosé smiles brightly at Yukel’s response after barely breaking the silence and takes Yukel’s hand and leads him.

“great! Then go to my room together! Oh, and tequila, too!”

Rosé, who is already excited about introducing her mate to her friends, and Yukel, who is forced to enter the academy by the absolute strong man named Levinfort.

Even Paimon said he would come to the academy this time… … I’m starting to have no idea how the academy will work.

Ah, now I have Paimon and Marvas.

Should I just run away to the demon realm?
