Academy Munchkin Enslaved

27 – Should I drop out?

An abandoned castle in the wilds of the west. And the black throne in the center.

In front of the black throne, a long red carpet was spread along the hall.

“Queen.”

A succubus walks along the red carpet with an alluring gait.

Arriving in front of the black throne, the succubus bowed her head to the queen who was half-lying on her throne.

“… Camira? I’m here?”

The queen, who had been half asleep, opened her eyes at Camira’s call.

Although she is said to be a queen, she has a completely human appearance. It was different from Camira, who had a heart-shaped tail unique to a succubus, bat-like wings, and horns, a symbol of the demon tribe.

A succubus could always disguise himself as a human, but the reason he remained in human form in front of his own people was simply because the Queen preferred it.

“Yes. It’s about the hero of the prophecy. It is said that he was transferred to the academy as a cadet. From what I hear, you seem to have a special talent for magic.”

“Really? Is that the gift the goddesses were talking about?”

“I can’t be sure of that. However, it seems certain that he will become the strongest outside the standard among humans.”

“Really? Then should I deal with it?”

“Yes. But right now, it seems difficult to use your hands because you belong to the academy.”

“Really? Then watch a little more. Ok… “

Queen. Succubus Queen.

She rose from her throne and stretched herself.

“Ah~ When are you coming? How many years have you left, Camira?”

“If it goes according to plan, there are still 9 years and 4 months left. I’m trying to make it as fast as possible, but… “

“Haa… Bored. It’s boring. It’s unfair. This is unfair! After sleeping like this, she didn’t stay in the human world! Really, if it wasn’t for that promise, I wouldn’t be doing this.”

Quinn seemed annoyed as she fired her magic at the empty cavity.

Before the demon king appeared in the human world, he was the only one left in the human world, the succubus queen, and several of his subordinates, who had to do the basic work, so it was a very angry situation.

In fact, the black throne on which the Succubus Queen sits actually did not belong to her.

Belonging to the strongest Demon Tribe who will soon appear in the human world.

The Succubus Queen was given the role of managing the throne simply because she remained in the human realm.

“… So then she should have gone back to the Demon Realm.”

“That… Hing. It couldn’t be. You know, Camira?”

“I may not agree with you, but logically I understand.”

The only succubus queen left in the human world when all the demons returned to the demon world in the past.

And several succubuses, including Camira, who left to cry and eat mustard to assist him.

The fact that it was Kami did not understand the behavior of the succubus queen at the time, but she lied.

She is the Queen of Succubus. She always wanted to slap the naughty queen in the back, but she always had to suppress it.

No matter how immature she is, she was one of the strongest in the Demon Realm.

During the years left in the human world, Kamira was to the point of losing her hair as she tried to please her queen and clean up after her.

“And about that child. Found it. She was alive.”

“… Really?”

As soon as Camira uttered that sentence, the succubus queen’s expression changed in an instant.

Her mischievous expression hardened in an instant, and her tomboyish voice became chilly enough to make her hamstrings tingle.

“… Yes. In fact, she didn’t really have that child in mind. It was found in an unexpected place.”

“… Where was it found?”

“… She stayed with him. Warrior of prophecy. While enticing the Hero of Prophecy to investigate, she was able to confirm that she was with him. It seems that the child has also been living in the academy for a while, so we have not been able to find any traces of him.”

“… He was with a warrior.”

Upon hearing the news, the Queen sat down on her throne and tapped her temples.

There were countless thoughts and emotions running through her head.

She had to pick out the meaningful ones from her brainwaves that unnecessarily clouded her judgment.

It was a habit that came about because she had to shed those things well as she was in the position of queen.

Guilt, worry, longing, fear, pride.

And countless side branches related to those emotions. Numerous possibilities and ideas.

A succubus was a kind of tribe that feeds on emotions, but she didn’t like those unnecessary emotions that much.

A waterfall of accidents that rushes to the point where the back of your head vibrates. Barely suppressing it, the queen opened her mouth again.

“… For now, let’s keep an eye on that warrior. Do some more research. Did I say she was handsome? That’s too much.”

“Yes. Her appearance was within three fingers of the continent, and she also had manners. Probably the style that the queen would like… “

“Yes. Okay… I also have eyes to see… It’s okay. Just go back.”

“Yes.”

Succubus is a chatty race. The Queen was no exception.

Even so, the fact that she suddenly issued an order to celebrate her guests meant that she had to be left alone for now, although she didn’t know what caused her.

From noble mtl dot com

Having been her queen for a long time, Camira sensibly turned around and walked her red carpet.

“Huh… “

The Succubus Queen fell asleep again.

***

“Don’t you think it’s strange? He said that it had only been two months since he started magic.”

The morning when Ian decided to transfer to the academy in earnest.

In the center of the nobility-born students, the second princess of the empire. Julia was voicing a feverish speech.

She used to be the girl who would sit by the window and read a book elegantly, but she couldn’t do that today.

‘I can never go to the academy with that man. I have no choice but to let myself go away… ‘

It was a really servile thought for the princess to do.

But she was inertia.

Yulia was already the one who had him tortured, whether he wanted to or not, and there was no way that her hatred for Ian, which had accumulated until now, would easily disappear.

Although there was no confirmation, Yulia still didn’t think that her Ian had won her subjugation festival with her own skills.

According to the professors, during the subjugation system, they said that they could not find any traces of demons from him.

Anyway, Yulia was sure he had used some expedient.

At this point, you could have wondered if he wasn’t born with the qualities of a real hero of prophecy.

She was a high-spirited princess who had lived her whole life saying only the right words,

She had nailed her Ian as a useless summoner on the continent, so it might not be easy for her to change her mind.

No matter what, Yulia’s behavior was headed in the wrong place even if it went wrong.

Because inertia was such a scary thing.

“But… The professors were all observing, wouldn’t it be okay? He could be a real genius. And I heard that some of the Mage Tower lords were slaves.”

“That’s right, Yulia. If he is really talented, shouldn’t he also contribute to the development of continental sorcery?”

The response from the female cadets was mostly positive.

The reason is, of course, his outstanding appearance.

Even Lorraine, who was reputed to be picky, had taken an interest in him early on, so it was no different than the other cadets.

On the contrary, most of them harbored a subtle anticipation for him.

“But the screen went out for a moment at the last moment? Maybe something happened in between.”

On the contrary, some of the male cadets had a skeptical view of Ian.

The instinct of males is to naturally keep in check males who are stronger and more attractive than themselves.

Of course, there were students who were not interested in him, but it was not common for males to welcome a handsome man with excellent magic skills who would appear like a comet and win the subjugation.

In a way, it was also against nature.

“No, that’s right. Everyone is right, but there could be a threat. Everyone knows the news that strangely shaped monsters have been appearing all over the continent lately, right? The atmosphere of the continent itself is not good, so there is nothing wrong with being careful.

Of course, if he’s a good person, you should be friendly with him, but if he does anything suspicious, accusing him is also for the future.”

Is it possible that each student has the future of the continent? It was a word that could be thought of, but most of the students were nodding their heads at Yulia’s words.

As monsters of strange shapes gradually cover the continent, the demon king appears and devours the continent.

It was already a famous prophecy on the continent, and the fact that the prophecy was being executed was known to all continents.

In particular, the words of the princess and her prophecies were combined to be accepted as a conspiracy theory with public confidence to some extent.

Of course, not everyone accepted her idea.

“Are you doubting the skills of the professors now, Yulia?”

Lorraine, who came to school a little late, walked among the students and said.

The reason why I can speak to the princess so confidently and arrogantly is because the two of them have been friends for a long time, and because the Dearheart family was a ducal family that occupied an important position in the empire.

“At the time of the subjugation, the professors were watching the two of them fight right beside them in case of an emergency. Even if the screen didn’t come out for a while, the professors are aware of the situation.”

“However, there are many suspicious things about his skills. Common sense is absolutely impossible to explain. Historically, no wizard has ever achieved such an achievement.”

“But records are meant to be broken. In the first place, how strong is the barrier of the academy? This is something that can’t be penetrated unless the demon king comes. I don’t know if someone deliberately made a hole inside.”

Eri’s shoulders trembled as she listened to their conversation silently, but fortunately no one noticed it.

“However, with the situation on the continent like this, nothing can be certain. Just be careful. But Lorraine. Why are you so wrapped up in a slave you’ll never meet? Suspiciously.”

“Isn’t that obvious? Will Ian marry me?”

“Eh, Eek?!”

Eh!?

Lorraine’s sudden remark.

It was already an open fact that she was Creighton’s fiancée, so the cadets in the class were even more astonished.

“What, what… You are already engaged to Cadet Creighton… “

“Isn’t it wrong for the Dearheart family to marry the continent’s greatest wizard?”

“Wait, Lorraine! Are you serious about that? Are you sure!”

This news is enough to make even Eri, who has been down a lot lately, jump up and regain her energy.

No one knew why Eri was excited, but she was certain that the class situation was a mess.

“Isn’t that obvious? If not, you can make it that way.”

“So did the slave agree?”

“I’m not a slave, I’m a student now?”

“Lo, Lorraine, if your affairs are known, the reputation of the Dearheart family will be in trouble!”

“Even if there is a problem, it will be better than the ruined reputation of the imperial family, so don’t you mind?”

“Ha ha ha… ? You now… !”

In the midst of the fight between Lorraine of the Dearheart family and the second princess of the empire, no one dared to step in and stop it, so only the uproar was growing.

As soon as the class door opened, a man came in, and he sighed at the sight of the first day of school unfolding in front of him.

‘Same class as them… Should I just drop out?’

It was classmates who made me want to drop out from the first day.
