The Narrow-Eyed Villain of the Demon Academy chapter 9

Episode 9

His expression hardened as he realized the seriousness of the situation.

It was because I knew roughly what kind of unexplored place this place was.

‘Now I understand.’

I found out that beef jerky had been prepared out of nowhere in the unexplored area and why the partition was divided using a tent.

This is an unexplored place created by the Baares family for the purpose of ‘training’ their youngest daughter.

The pupil of arrogance must have been a reward prepared for the youngest daughter who had completed training.

‘It’s not particularly strange.’

High-ranking families in the demon realm possessed many of these unexplored regions.

In order to efficiently train those who have inherited family blood or family members.

It was too dangerous to fight blindly against monsters, and there was a limit to improving one’s skills by training alone, so he used this expedient.

To describe it in one word.

I unintentionally robbed the eyes of arrogance that might have belonged to the successor of the Baarez family… … .

I mumbled despondently.

“This life is gone.”

This is not a situation that can be resolved with an apology alone.

At least one arm should be given up.

Should I cut off my little finger like the Yakuza?

Around the time I was muttering with a voice that had become empty in an instant, I heard the cry of a Death Knight.

Please open the door… … !

Death Knight was desperately appealing to me.

At the same time, a sound like head being cut came from the front.

And a dull, heavy sound thumping the ground that was approaching.

Guessing, it must have been the regenerated Guardian who was cut down and defeated.

Maybe next time

– please… … .

I’m going to be the one who begs desperately.

It was inanimate, something that would be regenerated anyway, and it was like an enemy, so I didn’t have the slightest intention of saving it.

and.

It’s already late.

My, please!

The merciless roar stopped, but the Death Knight begged more pathetically.

The reason was simple.

buy, save… … !

Denggung-.

Because the culprit who shook the unexplored world came right in front of him and cut the Death Knight in two.

Death Knight’s neck and body were separated and rolled on the floor.

It was to subdue the Death Knight in a single blow.

And the eyes of the person who was looking at the Death Knight moved.

“… … .”

Then he started staring at me.

Black bobbed hair that seemed to contain the universe, blue eyes that harmonized with it, and black horns on both sides of the head.

The youngest daughter of the Baárez family.

It was Lene.

Rene was sweeping me away with cold eyes that made me shudder.

Eventually, Lene, who was searching for me, pointed a sword at my neck and asked,

“… … you, who?”

I lowered my gaze without immediately answering Renee’s question.

My eyes were on the nape of Renee’s neck.

I knew it.

had a tattoo

A ‘black dragon’ tattoo proving that he is a blood relative of the Baarez family.

I noticed that Rene was the original owner of the Arrogance Eye and was certain to be the youngest daughter of the Baares family.

A character I didn’t describe in detail when I was writing the novel.

I had to use such Lene.

As a tool to survive here.

… … good night. I’ll do it.

After thinking, I opened my mouth.

“Congratulations on conquering the unexplored region. Miss Lene.”

A sudden but natural word.

A voice that seems not to be my own comes out of my mouth.

Adele’s temperament is assimilated with mine, and a natural respect comes out.

Adele is brutal and savage when she has to deal with her enemies.

However, when he had to bend, he knew how to bend to the point of being servile.

The setting was made with the motif of Sima Yi’s character in Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Thanks to this personality, Adele was able to survive until the second half of the work.

Was it because the situation itself was awkward no matter how natural it was?

Rene’s expression was stained with caution.

“What are you talking about.”

“Didn’t you finally prove your ‘qualification’ to the head of the household?”

“… … .”

Renee kept her mouth shut as if her words had hit the mark.

The sword aimed at my neck was not removed, but it was a satisfactory result.

Rene’s silence was proof that my prediction was correct.

‘As expected, René didn’t come to this unexplored place to get the eyes of arrogance.’

If Renee’s goal was to get the eyes of Arrogance, she would have reacted as soon as she saw me.

Because the pupil of arrogance was openly set in my left eye.

But Lene didn’t.

Just looking at me with a wary gaze.

In other words, it means that Rene doesn’t know about Arrogance’s pupils.

If so, there are two reasons left.

First, the position of the ‘successor’.

‘But the probability of that is low.’

It can be affirmed that this unexplored region has nothing to do with the successor position.

It has to be.

Settings I made myself.

So it’s natural to know

Since the successor of the Baares family was a ‘man’ other than Rene, it could be said that the capture of this unexplored region and the successor’s position had nothing to do with it.

If the condition for the successor was military force, it would have been reasonable for Rene to become the successor, as he had conquered the unexplored region with his overwhelming skills alone.

However, in the original work I wrote, the successor was someone other than Rene.

‘So what kind of qualifications must it be?’

If it was for the purpose of training, the Barares family would not have given the Iris of Arrogance as a reward.

Proving a certain qualification by acquiring the pupil of arrogance is probably the reason Rene challenged the unexplored region.

After thinking, I opened my mouth and asked in a calm voice.

“You’ve proven your qualifications enough, but you don’t look good.”

“… … .”

“Do you have any reason?”

“huh.”

Lene, who had been silent, responded immediately.

“you.”

“… … ?”

When I pointed my finger at my face, Renee gave a small nod.

“huh.”

The moment my gaze met Rene’s blue eyes that seemed to contain the sea.

I froze for a moment.

It was because Rene kept giving short answers, so I had to guess the first sentence in my head.

… … In short, the fact that I was in this unexplored place itself meant that I was dissatisfied and questionable at the same time.

But I had an excuse I had already prepared.

“Since you have proven your qualifications enough, the head of the household has instructed me to escort Lady Rene from now on.”

As I mentioned my family name and insinuated that I was an ally, not an enemy, Rene’s face hardened sharply.

Could it be that I made a mistake?

When your palms are sweating profusely.

Rene opened her mouth with an unreliable expression.

“you?”

Judging by how he lowered his sword while asking that question, he seemed to have determined that I was not the enemy.

Or maybe he decided that I was no threat at all.

I must have thought that I was weak because the mana I had in my body was several times less than his own.

Should I say that he is arrogant like the Barares family?

Something is a bit bitter… … .

But you can’t show your true feelings on the outside.

I said, trying not to lose the smile on my face.

“So you’ve got quite a bit of skill?”

“Put.”

This woman just laughed.

It’s good that the role of the servant of the Baarez family worked perfectly… … I don’t feel good because I’m being ignored from the front.

And it doesn’t seem like Lene has completely cleared her doubts yet.

Perhaps the amount of mana felt in my body was small, so I didn’t even think of it as an escort knight.

Then you have no choice but to show your skills.

To add credibility to my role as an escort.

“appointed.”

“… … ?”

When I stretched out my finger, Renee tilted her head.

Seeing that he didn’t react at all, he seemed confident enough to handle whatever happened.

It was a reaction that kept ignoring me.

I forcibly smiled and exchanged positions.

The moment the open arrow touched Rene’s sword.

“movement.”

The position of my body and sword changed.

Clink.

René’s sword made a loud noise as it fell to the floor, and my new model arrived right in front of René.

And her left hand, which had held the sword, came to hold my right hand.

“… … !”

A big ripple in Renee’s eyes, as if the feat of moving in an instant was amazing.

I stared at Lene and said in a sad voice.

“How is it?”

“… … .”

For a while, Lene didn’t answer.

Instead, he stared at his sword lying behind me, then bit his lower lip.

It looked like he was angry, so I swallowed the wind in my heart.

It’s not like I was offended… … .

I had made Renee hold my right hand to stop her from attacking me just in case, but I strongly felt that her judgment was correct.

While I was trembling in fear, I let go of the hand Rene was holding.

Only then could I breathe a sigh of relief.

“This is the reason why I joined as Lene-sama’s escort. It is useful for protecting Lenne-sama.”

That wasn’t a bad excuse.

Since I showed you the location swap, René would have noticed that my talent was related to movement.

Renee didn’t let go of her expression, as if she understood, but she didn’t question me any more.

Well, is this enough to convince you?

“Let’s go out now.”

I hinted at Lene.

My heart is full of thoughts of wanting to get out of this unexplored region.

You don’t know when your lie will be caught, so you have to run away as soon as possible.

“… … .”

Lene didn’t answer me.

He spoke very little and his facial expression changed little, so it was difficult to grasp at all.

I am very uncomfortable with this situation… … .

I continued talking to break the awkward silence and get her away from me.

“When you leave, go see the head of the household right away. Because you are waiting.”

“… … !!”

Rene trembled at the word “gaju”. It was a reaction as if he had touched the reverse.

He shook his head while thinking about whether he had a bad relationship with the householder.

After we get out of this unexplored region, we’re going to break up right away.

It would be good for her and for me not to see her any more.

“I have another job that the head of the household has entrusted to me, so I think I should go somewhere else right away.”

“… … .”

“Did you understand?”

“huh.”

A smile passed across Renee’s face as she answered my words.

Are you prone to emotional ups and downs?

I walked away from Rene and approached the door that seemed to be the exit to the unexplored region.

And as I grabbed the doorknob, I was lost in thought.

‘Let’s run away as soon as René goes to Crete.’

to leave quickly.

It was the only way I would live.

How did he escape from Peltz and come to the Demon Realm? He couldn’t die in vain in a place like this.

To double check, I turned my head back towards Rene and opened my mouth.

“You see? If you leave the unexplored region, are you going to Crete-sama right away? … .”

moment to finish talking.

Lene, who was following me, froze.

In that moment, I felt something was wrong.

Where Rene’s eyes were directed.

Follow that gaze and slowly turn your head… … .

‘crazy.’

There is a situation where curses come out of nowhere.

The inhabitants of the Demon Realm, with black hair and horns of a black dragon, each holding a weapon.

They look down at me with eyes as cold as frost.

and before them,

A man wearing a robe with a black dragon pattern on his body and boasting tremendous vigor was contemplating me.

“father.”

A single word escaped from Renee’s mouth as she met his eyes.

If it’s Lene’s father.

Head of the Barares family.

I knew the name

The seven families of the demon realm were the initial settings that I painstakingly put together, so I have no choice but to know.

The name of René’s father and head of the arrogant Barares family.

Crete.

He was welcoming me out of the mystery.

The moment Crete and I met eyes like that.

“Hoo… … .”

A laugh of admiration escaped Crete’s mouth.

At this, I felt an indescribable fear and shuddered.

this.

It seems to be properly prepared… … .
