I Misunderstood the Date and Saved the Demon King - Chapter 56
56. The problem is different
Something, something absurd, keeps happening. It’s been a thought in the heads of the academy students and staff lately.
Starting with Lethe, a war hero, in the instructor’s seat, the situation ended with four demon kings and four warriors among the students.
Everyone is getting along as if they were instructors and students from the beginning, and they treat them as they are, but sometimes I see it, is this really an academy? I used to think
But in that situation, again, ‘what is this?’ Happened. Eridike, a war hero on the side of the elves and a warrior leader of the Blue Moon Tribe who fought alongside Lethe.
She first appeared in front of her students after being hired as a full professor at the academy.
“Are we not going to get the owner of the Iron Hand Forge at this rate?”
“No way. That dwarf is busy beating hammers at the forge.”
“But the elves are here too! What the hell is this?!”
Some with great excitement, some with bewilderment. The reactions were varied.
It wasn’t just limited to students. Professors also put themselves in a position to worry about their position, saying, ‘Too big players are coming in because they are professors and instructors.’
“It’s hard though… I need to study more and study more so as not to be blamed.”
“Ugh. In this case, the plan to focus only on the thesis… Aagh!”
Fortunately, the lectures given by Ridike were literature and archery.
First of all, there aren’t that many professors who teach literature. Most of them are focused on swordsmanship, magic, or other areas necessary to solidify their social position.
Literature is also not a bad lecture subject, but the reality is that it has less merit compared to swordsmanship or magic.
And archery is more fringe than literature. This is an empire, not a place where elves live.
Only a handful of people handle bows, and most of them do it mainly for the purpose of reassuring themselves. I don’t feel the need to learn systematically at the academy.
Perhaps, it was to refrain from interfering with existing professors as much as possible. It may have been because of literature and archery.
“But what is it really? Could it be that?! The blue moon tribe warrior general wants to become a naturalized member of our empire! If that’s the case, that’s really great.”
“Yes. If the demon lords bow their heads first and the Elven war hero really asks for naturalization, then the status of our empire will rise, right?”
Yes. Just that part. Because of that, all sorts of words came out before Ridike came to the academy.
I don’t know her students, but the process and political elements in it were very complicated until she came here to the academy.
Once you start from the elf side, you won’t understand why Ridike wants to go to the academy. Words came out saying that the imperial side was going too low-key.
It is said that the empire has already directly received the armistice agreement of the demon lords with the existence of Lethe. It was not a proposal to elves or dwarves, but an agreement made by the Empire.
Since the other two races were allied with the Empire, they naturally entered into that pact.
With that alone, the position of the empire has already surpassed those of the two races. From there, if even Lee Dike Lee is given the position of a professor at the academy, she really acknowledges the supremacy of the empire.
It was only natural that the elves tried to stop Ridike from going to the academy.
And next, the Empire side was actually in trouble as well-
“This is a bit… Doesn’t seem like it. Sir Lethe alone is too much, but four demon kings and four warriors. And now the blue moon tribe warrior chief?”
“It is dangerous. It’s not a question of believe them or don’t believe them, it’s just too many.”
If there are only one or two strong characters, it could be considered unusual, but this is too focused. If something really happens, you have to worry about whether the academy will remain.
In addition, the elves are begging to stop it, and the dwarves, like the dwarves, are doubting, ‘Isn’t the empire trying to keep us in check by joining hands with the elves?’
If you think about it, the dwarves understand. Powerful people of various races gathered in the academy. However, the fact that there were no dwarves there was more than enough to make them feel uneasy.
“It’s important to let the Dwarves know that you have no political intentions.”
“I will take it. Her Highness, the Crown Princess.”
Fortunately, the crown princess quickly stepped forward, and the dwarves were able to silence the 2nd prince, who had to somehow set the ball.
And the elves made a reason that the politically sensitive elders could accept, saying that Ridike herself stepped up and ‘to contact the demon lords and establish a connection with the demons.’
I thought that this was enough to sort things out. At least Lydike believed so.
“Ah, why the hell did you come here! A goblin!”
“Let’s go back. If you keep hanging around my brother.”
“This is why I hate elves.”
“… Pointy ears.”
Until the four demon lords who could be called academy seniors came and growled.
‘No, why?’
It was hard to understand from Ridike’s point of view. She and she were also resentful.
I’ve never been able to check those devil lords like the imperial aristocrats, and I haven’t done anything particularly mean. And it’s been a while, but I haven’t even met him once.
Of course he had some misunderstandings. He felt the demonic energy and prepared for battle.
But I remember that I solved it right away. Looking back on that time, it wasn’t pleasant, but it wasn’t a very bad meeting at all! It was natural for Ridike to think that it was unfair.
Of course, that was only from Ridike’s point of view.
Currently, the demon lords have only one gaze on Ridike. Blue moon tribe warrior leader? An elven war hero? Lethe’s colleague? You don’t need any of that.
Only this thought filled their heads.
‘Damn the thief, you idiot!’
You can tell just by looking at it. Whether that woman had feelings for Lete or not. Since they had been in such a state for a very long time, it was inevitable to sort out that part.
The only contenders allowed are demon lords. Yes, you can put your heart into it and take care of it up to the level of a hero. During that time, we became close and benefited from Michaela.
But not Lidike. She is the woman who dared to stick by Lethe’s side while they were gone.
She still couldn’t give up on him and came all the way to the academy, wagging her tail. How much did they go through to get here!

In order to be next to Lethe, Lette is also Lette, but she must also buy the hearts of the demon lords beside her.
I saw the other day that Lethe was very fond of those demon lords. Under that circumstance, if she didn’t get close to them, it would be very difficult for her to stay with Lethe.
‘But he keeps growling and doesn’t give me a chance.’
From Ridike’s point of view, it was so frustrating that it made me feel a bit unfair.
No, I wonder if I can’t eat it when I see myself doing something wrong.
“I can’t allow more than this. Even if you persuade the uncle to stop it!”
“Yes, I can look after the warriors. By the way, the warrior chief of the Blue Moon tribe? Elf? You’re the woman who dared to stick by my brother’s side while we were gone!”
“If I had known this would happen, I would have pretended not to stop when Ashu said he would kill me.”
“… Regret.”
That’s right. It was a sense of rejection and fear that came from not knowing exactly what kind of relationship Ridike had developed with Lette while they left Lethe to become the demon king.
Lethe was barely approaching, but since she showed up all of a sudden, she must be very annoyed.
At last, the Demon Kings launched an operation to keep Ridike in check. The first thing they stumbled upon was their qualifications as academy professors.
“Professor Lidike. From what I hear, archery isn’t very good?!”
If one of the students had said something like this, I would have ignored it and told them to stop talking nonsense. However, the protagonist who said that was the demon king, Astaroth.
Because he is one of the heads of the demons, he seemed certain to know something.
Thanks to this, Lee Dike had to grit her teeth and show her archery skills on her own. At least, it was fortunate that I had practiced with my teeth clench recently and somehow managed to come up to an average level.
Of course, it was average in the Empire, but it was a disastrous level by Elven standards.
This situation eventually reached Lete’s ears. No, why are the demon lords who got along well with the warriors doing this? Had Lydike done something great?
“Why are you doing this? While getting along well with the warriors.”
“Ah, the warriors are friendly with us! But not that dwarf!”
“The woman who laughed next to my older brother while we were gone is no good!”
“Surely you will act like you are the first, master!”
“I hate it. Those pointy ears.”
I tried to get along with the heroes, but it turned out that I had to pay more attention to the other side.
