120 – Academy Transfer – 1
“So you said you came to ask for my help?”
I was taken aback for a moment when I realized that the method I had in mind was to cling to myself, but it was clear that there was no other way, so I decided to help and returned to the academy to gather other possessors.
It would be very bad for Beatrice’s health if Elisiere were hired as a maid again when Nica was already brought in without consulting her.
Beatrice jumped up and objected, saying that she needed to rest for at least two days, but she immediately calmed down when he hinted that since she had been good so far, she could be taken to the academy as a servant.
Her parents ended up not being able to see each other. It was because something urgent came up and he was away during the half-day while I was briefly heading to the demon world. I heard from Beatrice that they were both very disappointed.

“That’s right. No matter how much you are at Bellium Academy and how much you are the chairman, it’s not like you can completely ignore the emperor’s orders. Wouldn’t it be possible to count at least one new student as having transferred somehow? “Elisier or something like that would be enough to secure a top spot here.”
Perhaps because the basic weight class of the demons is so high, all of the power of the demon lord has been taken away, but by human standards, the skills are enough to occupy the top ranks at Bellium Academy.
Even that was the result of trying to suppress demonic energy and fight while not being familiar with one’s own physical condition, so if you can control demonic energy more skillfully, it would be worth aiming for a higher level.
“If I ask, my father will also try to organize the invitation. “You can just manipulate the other contents and create them.”
Laura frowned.
“However, keep in mind that the chairman can refuse at any time. Even if he is my father, he can recommend, but he cannot give orders. You know it’s a dragon, right? “He is not someone who can control the emperor’s authority.”
“I will try my best to do something about that. The chairman owes me something. Laura, you know that, right?”
The chairman was trying to reward Mahbat for killing him, going so far as to rob the imperial palace’s treasury at will. If a request was made from my side, there was a high probability that it would be granted.
If that’s not enough, there’s also the absurd right of wishing that I saved up a long time ago, so I could combine that and use both at the same time. It was unclear what I would receive anyway, but it was a good thing.
“Instead, Elisiere, you must not be found out that you are a demon. “I especially don’t want it to be discovered that I am the Demon King.”
“Do you mean this?”
It may have been Mahvat who caused Meligor’s betrayal, but it was the Demon King who drove a wedge. In the face of Meligor, who demanded punishment, he defended Mahbat and laughed at Meligor, saying it was a sin to be weak.
If his identity is discovered, it will be a very terrible situation.
“I can help you with that. Let me create an artifact that changes the properties of the body. “It’s just a cover-up, but it’s probably enough to fool the chairman’s senses.”
“…… “I express my gratitude.”
When the conclusion was reached, Elisier bowed her head towards us.
“As expected, the right answer was to ask you. But, dear… ….”
Eyes that had turned black for camouflage glanced at me. No, more precisely, I glanced at Priscilla sitting on my thigh.
“It seems really popular. “For some reason, it seemed like it didn’t bother me much when it came on. Maybe it was because I was already used to it.”
“It’s not like I’m particularly used to it. I’m holding on to it. What is this…… “It somehow ended up like this.”
Priscilla was sitting across from me on my thighs, breathing deeply with her face buried in the crook of her neck. It seemed like she was trying to paint me with her own scent.
As soon as I came back, she started to cling to me as if she had been waiting for me, and she has been like this ever since I noticed that she smelled like another woman.
In fact, Rosaria seemed to think that this was the first time she had seen something like this, and Elisier did not point it out any further.
“If I hadn’t sealed my memories, I could have been even more damaged than that…” ….”
Laura was breathing a sigh of relief, saying that she was glad she had lost her memories.
“…… So. From now on, I think we will have to assume a fight against the demon god and make a plan.”
After the biggest problem, the issue of Elisier’s residence, was resolved, I confessed that Astaroth had been resurrected and that it was almost certain that a demon god was behind it.
I deliberately did not mention the things I felt from Astaroth that were related to my past. At least right now, I was overdoing it. Just thinking about it made me feel like I wanted to vomit.
“Have you set anything separate for the Demon God?”
“There is none. Didn’t you say that it was a boss that would appear after defeating the Demon King? At least until the end, there were only a few fragmentary descriptions. “Of course, there is a setting that I have planned in my head, but since it is literally just a design and has not been explained in the novel, I cannot guarantee that it matches the current Demon God.”
I nodded. If I hadn’t just planned it in my head and written it down in a novel, I couldn’t be sure that the demons Laura had in mind and the demons that actually exist in this world would share exactly the same setting.
“I’ll tell you that it’s better than nothing, but why not solve the artifact problem first?”
The artifact that Laura mentioned was the Necklace of Heaven. An object she used when she lived as the crown prince.
The argument was that even the chairman could not detect the true gender, so if they improved it a little more, it would be enough to hide the fact that they were demons.
“Of course, you have to go through the test. If we are requesting incorporation, it is a given order to observe the subject very closely. “It may have been because I was convinced that I was male and didn’t dig deep into my gender.”
I was like that too. I was so sure of Laura’s gender that I didn’t even try to check it properly. If I had had some doubts, I could have approached it differently.
“I won’t even reveal its true purpose. Even if you are my teacher, shouldn’t we have a few secrets that we can never reveal? “The teacher must also have such a secret.”
The conversation was premised on the assurance that the Archmage would make the necklace of heaven, but of course there was a good reason.
“I am. Archmage Valera.”
“Is there something you want? “Just say it.”
Because I was the one who asked.
“Could you make me another necklace of all kinds? I hope it is an item with a better concealment effect than the one used by His Highness the Crown Prince. And the sooner the completion date, the better. One…… About four to five days? “I think that will be enough.”
I could feel Valera becoming embarrassed as she realized that my words were more of a notice than a question or even a request.
“Wait a minute. “You can make it, but it takes time.”
“Hmm. Come to think of it, I forgot to mention this. Have you ever heard of the Mana Breathing Method?”
“I’ll come visit you in three days.”
With those words, Valera cut off communication.
A while later, news came from Laura that a group of great wizards had come and robbed the palace’s treasury, and that the emperor had caught them by the neck. It was such a shame that even once was not enough to get robbed twice.
Actually, it is not a sad thing. I should actually like it because I indirectly supported my daughter, whom I cherish so much that it wouldn’t hurt to put it in her eyes.
“Is it okay for me to teach you the mana breathing method so easily?”
Elisier, who had seen me cast it when she fought Astaroth, asked the question carefully. Even to someone who didn’t know her, she didn’t seem to have average skills.
“Just because you tell me doesn’t mean you can follow it right away.”
I used it like it was nothing, but even in the magic-crazed world, it was a technique that only the top 1% of elites could use properly, based on numbers alone.
There are many things to prepare, many things to consider, many things to consider, and the activation order is extremely complicated. If you exclude everything else and just focus on the mana breathing method lectures, you will be able to use it for a year.
“I understand. “If you say so, then yes.”
Elisier lightly nodded and stepped down.
And around this time, one more special thing happened. Beatrice entered Bellium Academy as my attendant.
It was a bonus for Nika to have finished handling her duties as queen.
As soon as Nika met me, she told me what happened in her demon world. She said that the overall quality of my essence, including taste and scent as well as efficiency, was so high that she deliberately mixed it with lower-grade essence to prevent addiction.
The problem is that even then, more than a fairly high-quality product was released. At this point, she was starting to feel dumbfounded, but after hearing her say that the quality of energy is proportional to the strength of the target, she was able to understand.
Because I’m not a person who can’t be self-objective to that extent.
“My name is Beatrice, and I am the master’s exclusive maid and the chief maid of the Crait family.”
Beatrice, who came to her club room and formally introduced herself, finished her greeting, looked around, and looked at me with wonder.
“…… What’s the matter?”
“Do you really not know what surprised me when I look at the people in this room, young master?”
“… ….”
How could that be? I kept my mouth shut.
Other people’s reactions were also varied.
Priscilla and Elisier were calm, Laura was avoiding eye contact, Leona and Rosaria were blushing, and Aria was fidgeting. Nica actually seemed proud.
I know too. Everyone here is female except me. But I didn’t bring in just anyone, and with the exception of Nica and Beatrice, aren’t they all important characters who played a role in the original work?
It would be a bit unfair if this was pointed out as a problem with my conduct. It’s a matter of questioning the person who set this worldview as a lily version and set the male-to-female gender ratio in an awkward way.
“… ….”
That is a certain crown princess who is avoiding my gaze over there.
It was the second day since I returned to the academy.
ㅡCould you come to the chairman’s office for a moment? I have something to give.
As if he had completed what he had prepared by stealing the emperor’s treasury, the chairman summoned me in a completely different tone of voice than usual.
