I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy chapter 85

85 – Unexpected Companion – 2

‘I’ll turn around.’

This deformed underground space was dug out by the academy to grasp the aura of dark magic that kept rising above the construction site.

Now, you will encounter Regita and other demons here, but it is very touching to be with four disciples. It’s so touching…

“What on earth were you thinking after me?”

I’m not following the professor… Apparently, it was Michelle who pursued it first.

Isabel, who was about to retort, soon shut her mouth.

In any case, the conclusion is that he was driven underground with Professor Adrian. It would be of no use to say such things now.

“What are we doing now?”

“I don’t know.”

Jekiel replied that he didn’t know, but the students still couldn’t give up hope.

It was a height that would be unsafe even if he managed to come down by holding onto the wall, but Jekiel jumped down with the students attached to him and landed at once.

With this level of skill, can’t I somehow save it?

“By the way.”

Michelle’s gaze goes to a specific place. A path followed that line of sight.

“It seems that there is only one way in the first place. I like it or hate it, but I think I have no choice but to go that way.”

Well, the magic related to falling and the magic related to ascension are different.

Just because you’ve fallen this high doesn’t mean you can jump.

“Hmm… ”

Adrian began to think. It feels like my head is about to explode.

In the worst case, there is a way to temporarily protect students by opening a portal to the demon realm, but if that happens, the status of the demons will be exposed and everything will go to waste.

Let’s leave that as a last resort.

“…what is this place?”

Charlotte started looking around. In fact, I was curious about other students as well.

It is natural that students do not know why this space was formed in the basement of the academy.

“You must know that construction was started here and then stopped.”

Students nod their heads.

“Do you know why it was discontinued?”

Everyone shakes their heads this time.

“Dark mana was detected and stopped. For human wizards, the existence of black mana is very lethal.”

Isabelle’s complexion slightly deteriorated.

“then… If I stay here for a long time, will I be exposed to black mana that much? Why was this underground space created?”

“To find the cause. However, I have not been able to find it yet, and this time I have been dispatched to find the cause.”

The students were astonished.

I was afraid of the rift created by the demon world, so I jumped towards Adrian, but it was only now that I realized that I was caught up in something really big.

“now… What now? There, Professor. We actually saw a crack. It’s the kind of rift that opens when demons enter the human world.”

“is it.”

The situation is not good, but the judgment should be made calmly. The goal is not to save even one of the people here, but to save everyone.

“One thing is certain. You guys have jumped into something huge, and if you’re even a little bit off guard, you could die.”

Everyone nodded.

I just realized that I was caught up in something really big.

Adrian walks in the lead, and the students follow him like chicks. As soon as he sees that, the professor crumples and bruises.

“…don’t follow me.”

“Yes Yes?”

“I told you to study in the classroom, but you didn’t want to get caught up in something like this and ask me for help, right?”

Adrian walks fast. However, the students also speed up and cling even faster.

“Yeah, that’s it! We never thought it would be like this! Please go with me!”

It was, of course, Isabel who shouted the most urgently.

“no.”

“Maybe we can help!”

“no.”

Adrian stops and looks back with cold eyes.

“You all died the moment you entered this site on your own. think so.”

“Profit… ”

The students’ legs trembled.

The fact that I fell into a hopeless situation was also frustrating, but thinking that I couldn’t get Adrian’s help in such a situation made me even more desperate.

“School, Professor! We are the professor’s disciples!”

“What kind of disciple is not listening?”

“We really die! Because you really die!”

“die.”

later. Except for Michelle, the students are almost empty with tears in their eyes.

‘Sigh… ‘

Adrian let out a deep sigh.

Of course, I have no intention of leaving the students behind.

But this is a life-and-death situation. In order to increase the chances of these guys surviving even in a crisis situation, you need to make sure something is done in advance.

It was just a momentary scare in order to set a few conditions.

“you.”

“Yes?”

“Then can you do whatever I ask you to do?”

“Anything… ?”

The three students nod vigorously. Michelle was the only one who made a oh my gosh sound and suddenly blushed.

Adrian continues with a serious tone.

“First of all, from now on, individual actions are absolutely prohibited. Impulsive and unexpected actions are of course not allowed.”

Opening his fingers one by one, Adrian continues his explanation.

“And if you ever get into a combat situation, you guys just focus on defending yourself. It is only me who attacks.”

Everyone readily agreed.

Even if you think about it, it was a must-have in order to survive.

◈

Unexpectedly, in the straight corridor, there was a trace of being considerate of passers-by.

For example, from the point where torches made of mana light up the hallway.

The academy did its best to find out the cause. It was a part that had to be felt.

“Miraculous. It’s not hot, but it lights up like a real torch.”

Isabel, who majored in healing, couldn’t help but notice something like this.

“Isabel.”

Suppose you are treating a patient in the dark. A torch like this would be needed to shine light without burdening the patient.

Gotta get one of these Isabel pulled out a torch.

“Isabel.”

“yes?”

Isabelle came to her senses. Looking back, everyone, including Adrian, was staring at Isabel.

“I would have told you not to do anything unexpected.”

“……”

Adrian’s cool tone. Oh right. This is also a sudden move.

“sorry! ah… So, this is an act I did without knowing… I will be very careful.”

“If you survive, that is.”

Adrian murmured softly. But suddenly, Michelle throws out her anger.

“Isabelle… you… What the hell are you doing?”

“yes? No, it was because I wanted to take one because I really wanted to try something like this without any burden of mana… ”

“no… no… under… I’m going crazy You’re failing because you’re really like this.”

Michelle stomps her perfectly fine feet until she covers her head.

It is not for nothing that it is said that siblings who help out are more nasty than parents who nag.

I admit that I was wrong, but Isabel is also slightly annoyed.

“Michelle. Didn’t I apologize to Professor Adrian? And didn’t I tell you that I wouldn’t do that in the future? Why are you back?”

“Is that important now? The important thing is that you pulled out even one of them.”

“You can’t just plug it back in! hahahaha I’m really annoyed by everything. It’s because of you that I came here in the first place.”

“What is he saying now. Thanks to you, I was ruined.”

“What are you saying? Ehh yes, I got it, I got it.”

Isabel, who turned around nervously, put the mana torch back in the original place. It’s not difficult to put it back where it was.

It’s not difficult… ?

“what?”

Isabelle narrowed her eyes.

A torch made of mana naturally glows blue. But hasn’t it turned a little green now?

No, by the time I recognized it, it was already a red light, not a green light. An ominous red color that even an idiot can recognize.

The girl finally understood. Why did everyone look at me with resentful eyes?

“what… ?”

All the torches in the corridor slowly turn red. It even sounds like a beep beep beep.

Isabel’s face hardened in an instant.

“this… what is this… ?”

A broken-down Isabelle turns her head to look at Adrian. In the end, the only thing I can find in a crisis situation is Adrian.

“Sigh.”

“Eww?!”

Adrian quietly hugs Michelle.

“Where the academy touches, there is always a security device. Of course, it is necessary to deal with the arrival of people outside the academy.”

Rotin pushes up his glasses while breaking out in a cold sweat.

“…Isabelle touched that.”

“Yes, it is reasonable in its own way. A human wizard with common sense wouldn’t think of touching such a thing, and large demons would touch such things even if they tried not to.”

Next to her, Charlotte swallows dry saliva.

“then… So what do we do now?”

“You don’t even have to ask about that.”

Faaat, Adrian kicks the floor.

“…jump.”

aaang-!!

At the same time, a huge explosion started to happen from behind.
