I Became the Heavenly Demon of the Academy

evaluation (6)

In the palace, where even going out was not free, what Princess Riena could do was extremely limited. It was impossible to properly learn martial arts or magic due to checks, so it was only natural to focus on other skills.

Learn how to play a musical instrument, read books, paint.

In particular, painting was one of Princess Riena’s favorite things. Princess Riena had an outstanding talent not only in martial arts but also in painting, and she was able to transfer what she had only dreamed of to canvas in a stuffy world that was blocked in all directions, so she fell in love with painting naturally.

As a result, numerous paintings embodying all kinds of imaginations that the maids of the palace enjoyed reading and borrowed from popular novels sold in the market were still sealed and stored in a corner of the storage room of the princess’s palace.

Although she came to the academy, Princess Riena’s hobby continued without stopping. Everything in painting, from pigments to brushes and paper, was expensive, and I needed a separate studio.

There was no problem at all for Princess Riena, who was staying in the spacious imperial residence, which was made by renovating the entire top floor of the huge Helios Hall.

Today, I was sitting alone in the studio near my bedroom, staring straight ahead, holding a brush and drawing.

‘Is this what I saw yesterday?’

It’s the back I always see, but yesterday in Dalian, something looked different. Something more… It was an indescribable feeling from Princess Riena’s point of view.

Even if she had been drawing something else lately, when she came to her senses, she could find Princess Riena herself, who was transferring all kinds of Carol’s images onto her canvas.

At first, I tried to focus on drawing something else somehow, saying ‘It’s a home book’, but after experiencing a devastating failure, I decided to just accept it.

‘It would be nice if I could draw while watching.’

There were already plenty of ‘beautified’ paintings of Carol around, but Princess Riena was dissatisfied every time she drew them. It’s because drawing with your own eyes and drawing with memories are different. Of course, it was impossible to invite Carol to this studio.

By any chance, did Carol see this studio? Even if Princess Riena thought about it, if something like that had happened, the shame wouldn’t go away even if she kicked the futon all night. I knew that this wasn’t normal, but I think I’ve come too far.

I have no choice but to give up.

“Your Highness the Princess? Are you there?”

Today’s work was much more focused than usual. It was also a back view that I didn’t usually draw, and what happened in Carol’s room yesterday ignited Princess Riena’s girlish sensibility.

‘I’ll do it like this.’

After struggling for a while, he nodded his head in satisfaction, and was engrossed in painting while playing with his brush so dazzlingly that he didn’t even recognize someone coming into the room and calling.

And that was a great misfortune from Princess Riena’s point of view. Originally, no one came in and out of the imperial residence. I couldn’t get in and out easily. Because of this, Princess Riena’s room was completely her own space, and someone else entered without saying anything? It was something I wouldn’t normally have imagined.

However, Julia was given a heavy ‘mission’ to bring Princess Riena, and Julia, who received the order, did not stop no matter what obstacles stood in her way. If he’s sleeping, he’s opening the door and exploring with the momentum to wake him up and take him…

He ran into Princess Riena, who was drawing a picture while sitting on a chair in the studio.

“Your Highness the Princess?”

“huh?”

In Yulia’s field of vision, she could see red eyes looking at her, turning her head like a broken clock, while still holding the brush.

“that….”

“…..”

After a short search for the paintings in the studio, Yulia was stunned. Not one or two points. What does this mean? In addition, Carol’s paintings that had been ‘beautified’ were unnecessarily lively and realistic, making them spectacular. To the extent that even Julia herself was stunned for a moment.

“Yulia.”

In the face of the disaster caused by her extreme carelessness and high concentration, Princess Riena firmly held her heart. What has already happened cannot be undone. If that’s the case, the only thing you can do is make a quick fix.

“forget.”

Now is the time to use the princess’s authority.

“You mean… this?”

Yulia looked at Princess Riena with a bewildered expression.

“You didn’t see anything.”

Princess Riena held the brush firmly as if she would break it.

“It’s impossible to forget what you’ve already seen, but I won’t tell you where.”

“That’s normal.”

“But really… you are amazing. What a lot of this. Just memories.”

“stop…!”

Looking at Yulia, who was genuinely appreciating the painting without any malice and expressing her admiration, Princess Riena’s face suddenly grew hot, and a belated feeling of shame came over her.

“That… so what the hell is going on? They come all the way to my room like this.”

“Didn’t you hear? Prince Carl’s sparring is today. Prince Carol said that Her Highness the Princess and I must observe.”

“Has it been too late already?”

“yes. When Her Highness didn’t come out even when the time was right, Prince Carol sent me in her stead, saying it’s a bit much to go to the women’s room without saying anything.”

“sorry. I will prepare it soon.”

Throwing off the apron soaked in paint, Princess Riena quickly ran to the bathroom.

After looking at that figure for a moment, Yulia’s gaze returned to the picture Princess Riena was drawing.

Even Yulia was familiar with the broad back blocking the greatsword that had the momentum to split the heavens and the earth within the wide canvas.

After not being able to take her eyes off the painting for a while, Princess Riena finished her preparations and came to Yulia’s side before she knew it.

“I’m ready, let’s go.”

“All right. That… Her Highness the Princess.”

“huh?”

“Can I come and see you often?”

Yulia herself didn’t know why she asked such a question, but she had a sudden thought.

“What… what?”

“It’s a picture language.”

“why?!”

“Can’t you?”

“It’s not bad, but…”

“Instead, I will keep it a secret from Prince Charles no matter what happens.”

“…okay. Instead, you can’t just come in like today.”

“That’s it, don’t worry. It was inevitable today.”

“Yeah… do whatever you want.”

“thank you.”

In contrast to Princess Riena, who had a distraught expression, Yulia, who had completed a satisfactory transaction, raised the corners of her mouth slightly and smiled lightly.

* * *

The practice sparring with Dean Amelia was conducted in a place far from the center of the school. Schultz Academy, which had a lot of land that was equivalent to a fairly modest manor, had many vacant lots that were sparsely populated, and this place was one of them.

A translucent defensive barrier surrounded the land and stretched out in multiple layers.

There was an enchanted crystal ball and a mirror in the outer auditorium to observe the inside, so far away that it was impossible to see properly.

Dean’s secretary Yohana, Princess Riena, Yulia, and Selina were watching from the side of the auditorium through the crystal ball and the mirror.

“As predicted, I have prepared what I can mobilize here in advance. Since it’s a head-to-head confrontation between a knight and a wizard, it’s okay to have that kind of penalty, right? Space is also limited to this place.”

Amelia Dean asked, floating slightly in the air, holding a staff with a large jewel shining purple.

“of course.”

From noble mtl dot com

Just as I don’t care about my status as a dean or a student, Dean Amelia seemed to have a similar idea.

Around Dean Amelia, dozens of golems wearing black armor stood as if escorting them, emitting steam, and besides that, I felt a magic circle with concentrated energy nearby.

Among the knowledge I learned about this world while visiting the library, of course, there was something about magic. However, it seemed that magic was more of a vision than martial arts, and the published data only contained information close to the outline, and it was not known exactly what magic the wizards, especially the great wizards, used.

I asked Selina, but it seems that magic varies as much from individual wizard as martial arts, so it was difficult to figure out what Amelia’s vision was in the end. As seen in the Labyrinth, he seemed to have excellent abilities in making golems, but it seemed to be a secondary ability.

At first, of course, we started by widening the distance. At close range, no matter what’s blocking you, you won’t be able to parry my attacks.

A distance so far that Dean Amelia can be seen as a dot.

Bang-!

The fireworks that signaled the beginning embroidered the air.

At the same time, a tremendous flow of energy was felt, and a huge glowing magic circle appeared in the air. The earth resonated with the magic circle and vibrated.

It must have been a wide range of high-level attack magic. I walked slowly, looking at the sky. If he leaped quickly even now, there was a good chance of stopping the magic before it was activated. In general, you would think it’s far, but at the level of me or Amelia Dean, it’s just one or two workshops.

However, my purpose was to grasp the magic of this world, and to do so, it was also necessary to wait long enough.

Dean Amelia swung her staff once, and the earth, which had been shaking for a long time, rose like a wave and tried to attack me.

I pulled out the black lightning and swung it from bottom to top.

The waves of the approaching pile of dirt split in half and poured down behind him.

Against an army, such a broad attack would have been effective, but against an individual it was not so good. If it’s the same energy, there is of course a difference in power between concentrating it in one place and spreading it widely. If so, I had to assume that this attack was carried out on the assumption that I would block it.

Unsurprisingly, the obstruction of vision caused by the splitting of the waves of the soil. Aiming for that gap, I heard the sound of glass breaking in front of my eyes, and dozens of sharp ice pillars, each the size of my body, surged up in surprise.

Since he had already sensed it with his sense of humor, he naturally proceeded to smash the pillar with a bowel movement.

aaang!

Ice is followed by fire. The blazing flames swirled around me and began to explode violently. In the endless whirlpool of flames, he continued to walk forward without stopping, demonstrating strong self-defense.

The black lightning in his hand drew a circle like a sword dance, and the energy of the Heavenly Demon Spirit naturally arose and rushed into the sword.

“I expected it to stop, but it’s just ridiculous. I never thought I would do it without avoiding it at all.”

Dean Amelia’s words resonated equally from the front, left, right, top and bottom, like a six-part battle.

The scorched earth, swept by the great magic fire, reminded me of an infernal hell, and I could see an army of armored golems running through the scorching air.

In the magic circle that Dean Amelia had laid out beforehand, hundreds of chains of restraining magic that Selina had shown when dealing with Luke were tangled like threads and tried to restrict my movement.

In the distance, Dean Amelia was constantly casting spells and preparing something.

Moments and fleeting moments, manifested in a state of extreme concentration.

Lightly swung the black lightning with the black starlight horizontally.

Awesome!

The jet-black slash, which split the sky and the earth in an instant, slashed away not only the chains that tried to cover the heavens and earth, but also the golems armed with hard armor and fired at Dean Amelia.

Dozens of layers of blue defense magic rose around Dean Amelia’s body, but Kangi’s sword attack could not be stopped and only fragments of magic scattered and shattered.

The moment the slash was about to reach Dean Amelia.

The black lightning vibrated strongly.

A huge earth giant who blocked my attack in front of Dean Amelia. I’ve seen it in books. The highest level spirit of the earth. A spirit optimized for defense appeared in front of Dean Amelia.

“…What in the world is Prince Carl’s true identity?”

With Dean Amelia’s words full of surprise, all kinds of spirits began to appear, starting with the spirit of the earth, and in the center of the magic swirling in all directions, Amelia Dean floated in the air, pointed her staff at me, and finished the spell.

Hard.

Stone fragments and dirt poured down like heavy rain, contorting and compressing the surrounding space in an instant. Waves of enormous energy coiled around and twisted my body like a spiral.

As if stimulated by numerous spirits, the black lightning vibrated more strongly than ever.

While enduring Amelia’s magic that tried to crush my body with my whole body and raising the energy of the Heavenly Demon Sacred Art, I felt a will that resonated with me.

The combination of the great army of spirits, like an iron wall that blocks even strong winds, and Amelia Dean, who chants magic behind them, seemed like watching a martial arts battle and defense unite. Even a magician who is weak in melee will not be able to penetrate even a few knights if he is protected like that.

If you cut them down one by one, there’s nothing you can’t do, but Dean Amelia probably won’t just sit back and watch.

When I looked up, the sky that had been clear when we first started fighting was now covered with dark clouds. With an explosion, a dazzling line linking heaven and earth descended from the black clouds.

It soon turned into a halo of light that enveloped the black lightning.

I realized it automatically when I saw it. In the first place, Black Lightning was not something that could be handled with Spiritual Art. The answer was fixed from the beginning. A spirit that can only communicate with will.

Because that was the true nature of the lightning spirit.

Of course, the records must have been so small that Eliate could not find them. The odds of a warrior who handles intentions summoning such a spirit and leaving a record would have been infinitely slim.

While resisting Amelia’s magic, in her mind, she rearranged and combined the swordsmanship she had learned so far to match the Black Lightning.

Black Lightning Sword Type

Responding to the name he shouted in his heart, the black thunder emitted a humming sword.

Breathing slowly, refining my thoughts, I just swung the sword as I wanted.

Under the Black Thunder

Finally, a sea of black clouds covered the whole world.

* * *

“What happened?”

Even Princess Riena, who raised her energy and focused her eyesight, couldn’t see the situation inside.

The magic device that could see the inside was also wrapped in black light and didn’t work properly.

“…I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.”

“Master…”

Dean’s secretary Yohana and Yulia looked across the land with worried eyes.

“uh…?”

The fog, which had been so black that it obscured the view, gradually faded, and light began to shine through the clouds, illuminating the interior.

The first to notice the change was Princess Riena.

Dean Amelia, who was floating high in the air, fell down, and Carol hurled herself to catch it.

“Um… over there!”

At the location Princess Riena pointed to, Carol could be seen approaching the auditorium, holding the fallen dean Amelia in her arms.

“Nonsense….”

From noble mtl dot com

Johana’s face was stained with astonishment, as if she hadn’t even thought that Dean Amelia would be defeated.

“ha….”

Yulia, too, couldn’t breathe and looked inside, only then let out a sigh of relief.

“It is fainting due to minor internal injuries and exhaustion. You just need to recuperate a little.”

Carol, who had come nearby at some point, carefully handed over dean Amelia, who had fallen to Johana.

“You worked hard… I need to go back first.”

“yes. There is nothing good for anyone to see.”

“You worked hard, Prince Carol.”

Selina, who had been holding on to the crystal ball from beginning to end and observing it with devouring momentum, came to her senses and stood next to Carol and said,

“Okay, let’s go back.”

Thanks to that, I also got a clue about the Black Lightning, so I’ll have to thank Dean Amelia separately when she wakes up. With that thought in mind, Carol left the desolate vacant lot behind and moved on.

There were numerous spiers in the Schultz Free Imperial City. High spires also had the meaning of showing off, so those with even a little bit of power wanted to build endlessly stacked spiers, and thanks to this, spires built as if to pierce the sky existed all over the city.

one of those spires.

Three people were looking out from inside the tower with a panoramic view of the city.

“You mean we just need to create chaos?”

A woman with light brown hair asked the pale-faced young man next to her.

“okay. that was the order The Diabolus Pretum guys do the rest.”

“I hate those warlocks.”

“There is nothing to encounter.”

“Really?! Oh right. I think the intelligence dogs have some sniff.”

“There’s no way the subsystem knows anything about us anyway. That too is no problem.”

“I don’t know why the Imperials are so anxious that they can’t eat us. That’s what the Imperial Council agenda is for. Exterminate the demons!”

“It’s because the stupid demons tried to kidnap Princess Riena. If you’re going to do it, you have to do it right, what the hell are you doing with lesser ones?”

“Ri… Is Princess Riena coming too?”

A man of enormous stature, standing still next to him, drooled and asked when the story of Princess Riena came out.

“I don’t know. Also, swordsmiths follow around Princess Riena. There’s nothing good to touch now. Why are you so obsessed with Princess Riena?!”

“Isn’t it natural that failed films covet successful ones? You know instinctively.”

“Wrong?”

The woman tilted her head.

“Who are you!”

Suddenly, an old man climbed up the steeple and shouted in surprise when he saw the uninvited guests.

“I remember you said no one was coming here.”

The young man stared blankly at the woman as if scolding her.

“huh. Did you?”

“…I don’t want to talk. Lupus, take care of yourself.”

“Ah… got it!”

“what…!”

The eyes of the startled old man saw a huge man covering his entire field of vision.

That was the last sight the old man saw.

“Hey Lupus, blood is splattering all the way here. Won’t you eat clean?”

“Mi… I’m sorry.”

“Anyway, it’s no different from a beast.”
