[Skill: Cockroach Kick]
A finishing technique in which the body’s weight, strength, and mana are applied to the tip of the foot to defeat the opponent.
That was the effect of this skill that came into my head.
What I like most of all is the effect of inflicting additional damage on opponents perceived as villains.
Perhaps thanks to this, the stone walls built by Purpur quickly oxidized into dust.
“What is this——”
“It’s a cockroach kick. It’s a skill worthy of a villain like you.”
Purpur was stuck on the ground with his foot stuck in the pit of the stomach. I grab the fainted guy by the collar and lift him up.
Behind him, Sagara’s eyes met with tears. She trembled and stepped back.
“Monster, monster!!!”
With Purpur in hand, I slowly walked toward Sagari.
“Heeek! Keuuheugh! Don’t come! Don’t come!!!!!!”
dump. and put the furpur in front of him. Sagara put on a dumbfounded expression for a moment.
I said to Sagara in a cold voice.
“To me, you guys look more like monsters.”
“Gwa, are you okay?! Mr. Gregory!”
The figure of Rosé approaching, blowing smoke with a pipe twisted in her mouth. Perhaps conscious of my gaze, Rose, who flinched and hardened her face, smiled.
“Ah, uh, that’s it! I’m not feeling well because I used some energy! By the way, I’m so cheap… What are you going to do now, Mr. Parfait?”
“I have nothing to do.”

Glance. When we looked away, the instructor came to us and looked at Purpur’s condition.
“Well, it sure looks like it’s over. The winners are Roger von Euglia and his summoner Gregory Jones.”
Hearing that he had won, he released his transformation.
Demon Purpur.
To be honest, I didn’t think it would be this heavy.
It was my fault for thinking only of the abilities in the game and expecting combat power.
And, I also realized something certain.
Well, this is reality.
“Instructor. It seems that the summoner is having a hard time due to excessive sparring.
“Let it be.”
I bowed my head slightly to express my gratitude and looked at Rosé.
For some reason, I found it funny to see the guy who was still holding on to the pipe awkwardly.
“Let’s go back.”
“Yes! Oh, wait!”
Rose suddenly turns around and runs to the arena. As I watched the scene, I heard a muffled sound from behind.
‘saw? He was spitting out cigarette smoke in front of Mr. Parfait saying he won… … .’
‘You live with a summoned beast like that? What is it?’
‘There was a rumor that that was dyed, but is it really an elf?’
‘What a shameless bitch while blowing cigarette smoke… … .’
Apparently, because of the sparring just now, there were bad rumors about Rosé.
Well, it seemed a hundred times better than being treated like an idiot.
While I was thinking about that, Rose ran up to me and showed me a cane.
“I had to take care of this. hehehe. I can’t feel anything now, it’s just a staff…”
Saying that with a tear-stained face, Rose swung her staff around.
With a bang, the staff breaks.
“My wand alas… … … .”
To be honest, I didn’t like the fact that my summoner carried such a low-level staff.
“I’ll get you something better later. Let me rest first.”
“Ah yes!”
terribly exhausted
Whether it was because of [Skill: Cockroach Kick] or because of the fierce battle earlier, the feeling of exhaustion in the body was no joke.
[Image space] that can only be moved when next to the summoner
Arriving in the room where I still feel nostalgic, I immediately walked over to the computer chair and sat down.
“I want to collapse on the bed and sleep, but… … .”
Unfortunately, this world is not such a kind world.
There are disasters in this world, and there are groups of people who are after my summoner.
In order to prevent that, I had to develop my strength and develop Rose’s strength.
“And the answer must be right here.”
While muttering that, what I took out of my pocket was the succession stone given to me by Arachne.
“Hmm, how does this change?”
The succession stone Arachne handed over had a different USB shape.
It seemed that the shape changed depending on the space.
When I plugged the USB into the computer, a folder came out.
click.
Inside was just one file.
[Summoner Academia Side Story (Gregory Jones)]
“Ha, you show it like this?”
A sense of triumph arose.
Are you trying to tell me, a gamer, about the past in this way?
“good. I will match you.”
I muttered that and ran the file.

fell on the bed
“… … transform.”
The room is brightly lit and the body turns into wheel foam.
As expected, this side of my body felt more comfortable.
“Ah, from now on, we’ll use wheel foam.”
Efficiency seemed to increase. Wheel form had an extra pair of arms that could be used.
As a result, I couldn’t know all of my past.
Because there was a chapter limit on this damn game.
“At least it’s a game like an unplayed game, but what about the chapter limit… … .”
It’s probably a system where chapters are unlocked as time goes by.
It doesn’t seem like Arachne has put any restrictions on herself, but it’s a global limit, or it seems that this body has put a limit on itself.
“I got the rough idea, though.”
[Gregory Jones]
A demon called the Grand Duke of Hell and the King of the Underworld.
He is a rival and close friend to Baalzebub, the king of flies and the king of demons.
The territory ruled by Gregory is in the south of the Pandemonium, a territory no bigger than a city.
However, it also has more territory than anyone else.
‘Underground King’
I never imagined that all the underground areas of the demon realm, except for the territory of Baal, were my territory.
“… … I was rich!”
It means that neither mine nor underground construction can be done without my permission.
The riches I saw when I went to my territory were all related to those things.
And there was quite a bit of trivial information, one of which was why Sylvie was managing my territory.
“I would have thought he was a demon who hated trouble from the beginning.”
This body seems to have a pathological dislike of managing and taking responsibility for something from the past.
So, it seems that he entrusted everything to Arachne, who was right under him, from a very long time ago.
Maybe that’s why there aren’t that many demons who know me.
“It’s not like I had a disease of interest in the first place, and I don’t think there’s any reason to become famous.”
It was good to just grapple like this and eat whenever there was something to eat.
Looking at the time, it was already around 5 in the morning.
This body was a body that didn’t need to sleep, but… … After all, sleep was the best for rest, so I decided to close my eyes for a while.
very, very little… … .
Ding-dong! Ding-dong! A bell ringing is heard.
I jumped to my feet and looked at my watch.
7:30 am. It seemed that he had only slept for about two and a half hours.
“This is enough rest.”
When I turned on the TV, I saw Rosé talking to me.
[Gregory? uh… … Are you going for breakfast today?]
Seeing that, I walked over to the intercom and said.
“Okay, I’ll be there soon.”
and transform. It only transforms, but it becomes a very pleasant state.
And move to Rosé’s side.
“Good morning! Did you rest well?”
“Yeah, I’m glad you’re okay too.”
“hehehe, it’s all thanks to Mr. Gregory.”

Glancing, I look behind Rosé. I couldn’t see the cane that I usually carried.
“Can I use a cane?”
“Yes! Fortunately, there is no sparring class today.”
“I’m glad.”
The wand plays the role of making the user’s magical operation smooth, so it was absolutely necessary in Dalian.
For example, is it about the difference between throwing a bullet with your hand and shooting it with a gun?
Of course, this world was a world of superhumans who could shoot bullets faster than guns even if they threw them with their hands.
Hmmm, should I make rosé that much later?
“Um… Mr. Gregory? His expression is kind of scary.”
“Nothing. I’ll pick up the wand after school today after class.”
“yes? today? that… … Wands are quite expensive… … .”
“do not worry. It’s because there are so many things that your friend can rot.”
Of course, that friend meant Paimon. He’s a warrior, but he pretends to be a wizard to hide his identity… … It must have had quite a few useful things.
“Are you my friend? Gregory-sama, did you have any friends here?”
“Since you said you were friends, you must be friends.”
This is Paimon’s fault for calling me a friend in the first place.
He said he was a friend first, so he’ll take good care of the staff.
Is your friend like that?
“okay. thank god! Gregory-sama has friends too!”
… … What do you mean?
“Yesterday, then, I must have gone to see my friend!”
“yes.”
Rosé nodded as if she finally understood. Where the hell does this guy think I’ve been?
“That’s it… … I was having dinner last night, and I heard that a monster that eats away at the human spirit has appeared in Sumonia.”
hmm?
“They say it was a monster that instilled fear in humans and drove them crazy just by its existence… … There’s no way Gregory-sama, who went to visit a friend, would have done that!”
no
“What a relief!”
that fits me
“Keuheum, let’s go get something to eat.”
“yes!”
How can you look at that face and tell the truth
I’m the monster… … .
* * *
The back of the restaurant after eating.
Rosé, who had been smoking a pipe after dinner, was staring at me.
“… … Why would you do that, Rose?”
“That’s it… … . hehehe, are you away today by any chance?”
After hearing Rosé’s words, I wondered if I had something to do today.
I couldn’t play [Summoned Academia Gaiden] because the chapter was blocked, and the only thing I wanted to do when I entered the world of imagination was the game.
I’m going to see Paimon after school.
“No, I don’t think that will happen.”
“really?!”
Rosé asked back with a bright smile.
What are you so happy about?
“okay. So, why are you asking that?”
“That’s it. I was wondering if you could attend class with me today.”
“class?”
“yes! Academy class!”
Is it an academy class? Certainly, it was class time at the academy that was skipped over in the game as well.
Mostly [this monster… … … … … ] It developed like this.
Well, I thought there was nothing wrong with listening to it.
I was curious too.
“good night.”
“really?! Yahoo! Cough Cough!”
Rose, who was biting into the pipe, screamed like that and started coughing while blowing smoke.
Rosé with tears in her eyes. Even so, Rose was smiling brightly.
“Is it really that good that I’m in class with you?”
“yes! In fact, I was so envious of the other people taking classes with my summons.”
Was that what you were thinking?
Soon after, Rose brushed the herbs from her pipe into the ashtray, cleaned the pipe, and put it in the holster.
“Class 1 is monster study! ruler! song!”
Is this going to be so exciting?
I arrived at the classroom pushed by Rosé’s annoyance.
When Rosé and I entered the classroom at the same time, countless eyes were directed at us.
It had no choice but to be.
It wasn’t even 3 days since I summoned the summons, and Rose, who had been listening to inferior elves until now, was beating top students one after another with me.
Rosé and I moved to the back seat. This was the seat I sat on the first day.
And soon after, the bell rang and a human who seemed to be a teacher came in and started class.
He is about 168 cm tall. It was a woman with long, orange hair tied back.
The teacher put the attendance book he had brought on the table and began to call out one by one.
As I sat still and waited for me to be called, the teacher’s eyes widened.
“Gregory Jones? You came to class today. I heard you don’t usually show up in class.”
“Because I’m interested.”
“… … Right. Do you know my name?”
“I do not know.”
At that time, Rose, who was sitting next to her, whispered softly.
“Cuse. I’m the Cuz teacher.”
“Cuse. It says.”
After hearing my answer, Cuz smiles.
“thanks. Rosé. Then keep calling attendance.”
As I was calling the other students by name, Rosé sneaked up to me and whispered again.
“Instructor Cuse is a great warrior who made a name for himself in the past… ! He’s in charge of today’s first period, monster department and martial arts.”
is it.
Certainly, even to me, he looked like a warrior who had fought quite a bit.
Although I couldn’t see it in detail now because I was wearing a long-sleeved shirt, small and large scars were showing little by little on my wrists, neck, and parts covered by hair.
“Right.”
“Two people there. no more small talk Class has started.”
“Ah, four! sorry!”
Hearing Cuse’s point, we quietly began to focus on the class.
Classes were about the types of monsters and their weaknesses.
It was certainly necessary information for newbies.
However, I felt that the class was boring because it was common sense that everyone knew.
Did you spend 20 minutes of such a boring time?
Suddenly, I realized that Cuz’s eyes were fixed on me.
“… … Gregory Jones.”
“Why?”
“I don’t seem to be paying attention in class… … .”
“No, I was focused.”
I couldn’t openly say I wasn’t paying attention, so I lied.
“Are you focused? good night. Then let me ask you a question. Questions you could answer if you were paying attention.”
You’ll never know if you don’t pay attention. eyes like that. The look of it made me proud.
“Try it.”
After hearing my answer, Cuz grinned.
“good night. I just talked about gunpowder slimes. What are their characteristics, weaknesses, and how to hunt them safely?”
A smile is drawn on my lips when I hear the question.
“You mean gunpowder slime?”
“Yes, gunpowder slime.”
They seem to think I’m laughing because I’m shy.
But what about this?
Even if I collected the gunpowder slime I caught, it would cause a world war.
