Surviving as an Academy Black Magician

“What are you doing? not even doing what i was doing continue.”

blatant killing.

I quickly put my hand down and said.

“This… . sorry. I did it on a reflexive basis without even realizing it… . But what are you doing here at this late hour?”

“You have to speak straight. It’s not me, it’s you.”

Even though she raised her hand, she still didn’t take her life. I knew he had a fiery personality, but would he commit murder in the academy?

Roman, who belatedly sensed the change, showed up.

“master! Are you okay? For sure… I couldn’t detect any signs, so how could I… .”

“Oh, it’s okay. are you okay. someone you know You can go back.”

Aria’s eyes narrowed while looking at Roman.

“I said it looked familiar, so is that the killer I saw last time? Did you really think of turning it into an undead? The more you know, the funnier it is. you.”

If the opponent is Aria Valentine, it’s understandable that Roman and I didn’t feel any sign of it.

The one who is favored by the night.

This is not a figurative expression. She had the protection of Nox, the 41st in the hierarchy, the demon of blood and night.

Protection (加護) was a kind of blessing directly bestowed by the gods, and was of a completely different nature from signing a contract with the gods or borrowing power.

There were gods who bestowed blessings without asking for anything in return, while there were also gods who bestowed blessings only on those who passed through trials.

Depending on the inclination and type of the gods, the blessings that humans could obtain were also different.

It was thanks to this divine protection that the idiot Lars was able to become a hero.

Of course, it was not common because the granting of protection itself was a matter of consuming the probability that could be said to be the source of the people themselves.

As you may have noticed by this point, the demons also bestow blessings on the humans they like.

Of course, demons and black magicians who worship demons call it a blessing, but most humans who worship the main god consider it a curse.

In fact, even if you call it a curse, there is nothing to say. The protection of demon gods is unique in that it gives both sickness and medicine at the same time.

If you ask what this means, it means that instead of giving you a special power, you give a penalty equivalent to that.

I can’t quite understand why he’s doing such a thing, but I think it’s probably a bad taste to harass the people he’s marked.

“… hahahaha. I’m sorry, but could you please clean up that life?”

“I? why? you cheated on me Aren’t you of mixed demon race?”

Anyway, the ‘favorite of the night’ she possessed was, as the name suggests, a divine protection that exerts tremendous power at night.

Her original strength is doubled, and no one can find her if she doesn’t want to. It will assimilate into the darkness itself.

So even Roman, an excellent killer, couldn’t help but feel her presence.

“Well, you seem to be misunderstanding something, but that demon is of mixed blood.”

She clicked her tongue as if bewildered.

“under! You want me to believe that right now? You say you’re a descendant of the Sieghart family. Are you saying that the descendant of a family revered as a hero among humans was actually a demon?”

I had expected this to some extent, so I had already prepared an answer for him.

I said with tears in my eyes as if I was sincerely sorry.

“I am a descendant of the Sieghard family. I didn’t even know I was a member of the Sieghard family until my mother died. I lived in hiding for the rest of my life seeing my father killed by humans.”

Her life had diminished a bit, but she still looked at me suspiciously.

“Mixed blood between humans and demons is by no means common… . Besides, why did the clan of the hero family marry the demon?”

“I don’t know the details, but the current Sieghard family has only a name. I was able to enter the academy because there were still people who remembered that name, but other than that, there was nothing to benefit from the family. So did my mother. On the contrary, I heard that they lived poorer than common people.”

“Where did you live with your mother?”

I was taken aback by the unexpected question, but I didn’t show it off and said the village located closest to the territory where the demons live.

“I don’t know if you know it’s a village, but it’s a town called Kazan located in the southern part of the empire.”

I was the one who was in charge of the preliminary investigation of the demons while traveling with a group of damn warriors.

“It’s Kazan… .”

I saw her eyes soften. He did not miss this gap and vomited his passionate speech.

“yes. I heard that it was also there that my mother and father first met. It is said that when his mother went to collect herbs in the mountains and was surrounded by bandits and was in danger, it was her father who helped her. I remember that he said every time that he still can’t forget how cool it was at that time. It was a very unsafe neighborhood, so there were frequent raids by bandits.”

“okay. For now, let me believe your words. But there is one part I don’t understand. If you’ve been avoiding humans all your life, why did you come to the academy?”

Now that was the highlight.

“I want to change this country.”

she frowned.

“… Say it right.”

“Discrimination against mixed races. Discrimination against demons. It is my dream to get rid of all these things. After graduating from the best academy in the empire, I will become a pillar that supports this country, and I will change one by one with my own hands.”

“… do you think that’s possible? In the first place, you would be executed right away if you just said that you have demonic blood mixed in?”

I laughed bitterly.

“Probably very difficult… . No, that would be close to impossible. However, I won’t give up. This is possible because I have both demonic and human blood. There are many people suffering like me at this time. Demons are also intelligent beings no different from humans. I feel emotions, I love, I have a family. They also have a country and people. I believe that humans and demons can no longer confront each other, and can reconcile. To break the chain of reckless hatred. That is my true dream.”

“… Even if countless compatriots bleed to death in the process?”

“I have no intention of sacrificing the small for the great. Keeping them from bleeding is part of my dream.”

“It is a vain dream.”

“you’re right. I am a dreamer. But if you don’t dream, you won’t be able to achieve anything.”

She smiled softly.

“… Although it’s like a dream baby, it wasn’t bad. where do you do well I will be watching.”

I also looked at her and smiled brightly.

“I will definitely do it.”

Suddenly, a hideous demonic energy rose from her whole body.

I tensed my body so that I could fight right away while hiding my embarrassment as much as possible.

‘what? Did I make a mistake… .’

The entire arena was covered in darkness, and what looked like bat wings rose from her back.

flutter.

She spread her wings and soared through the air. Red eyes filled with demonic nature stared at me.

“My real name is Aria Deamon. She is the first princess of the Demon Kingdom.”

I hurriedly fell to my knees and shouted.

“Wow, meet the princess!”

“When darkness comes, it will be watching you wherever you are. the dream you told me never forget.”

“Ah, I see!”

“Remember. that the night is forever.”

After a while.

The darkness lifted. Her figure was no longer visible. After looking around for a while, I let out a sigh of relief.

For whatever reason, he absolutely refused to fight her at night.

“You’re still doing fun things.”

I was alerted by the sudden voice and looked around, but I couldn’t see anything.

“Who are you!”

“This way. this way.”

Looking in the direction from which the voice was heard, the two-headed doll I saw earlier was toddling with its short legs.

“you… . Could it be Asmodeus?”

“It’s been a while, Contractor.”

I couldn’t control my welcome heart and ran with all my might and lifted her up.

“How much is this! Why didn’t you say anything! What is that face?!”

The doll pursed her small lips and said.

“Didn’t you say you went to war? Things got complicated thanks to you.”

“me?”

Only then did I remember the deal I had made with Andromalius.

“ah… … . right. Sorry, I was really in a hurry back then.”

Her stubby fingers moved.

“done. Because I didn’t bring it up to blame you. First, let’s go over there and talk.”

I took her in my arms and sat down on a bench at the back of the gymnasium. She jumped out of my arms and sat next to me.

“Feel so good.”

“What is that body?”

“A small human child made this doll and prayed to me every day. So I gave you a present.”

I didn’t bother to ask how the child was able to know the name of Asmodeus and pray.

“You can’t… The child’s soul… ”

“I don’t like children’s souls.”

“I’m glad. So what happened?”

“Nothing. I cut off the limbs of Andromalius, who asked me to give him legions, and personally put them in his mouth.”

At a loss for words, I stared at her.

“Nothing to worry about. We have reached an amicable agreement. In addition, the heads of Halfas and Raum are displayed. They took advantage of the war and fearlessly invaded my territory. It’s a new head, so it’s perfect for decoration.”

They were demons ranked 38th and 40th, respectively. He was talking about such a transcendent being calmly, as if he killed an ant while walking down the street, so I couldn’t believe it at all.

“… So, who started the war?”

“It was Paimon and Sitri. Since Baal went into hibernation, they were trying to expand their territory. Well, they weren’t on good terms in the first place.”

… Both were demons who belonged to the ranks of the strongest. Pan-dimensional beings to the extent that even if only a portion of their bodies were manifested in this world, perhaps one-third of the continent would disappear without a trace.

If it had not been for the oath made by Salmon, the first transcendent, and the wall of probability blocking the dimension, the continent might have disappeared by now.

“result?”

“It is a truce. This is very unusual in Gehenna. Even those who endured for eternity did not have the confidence to prepare for extinction in the end.”

“… … .”

“By the way, it seems that you have made some new growth that we haven’t seen before. Did you find any clues about Lemegeton?”

“yet. Now that you have entered the academy, you should start looking for it in earnest.”

“Remember. We officially sign a contract after you find Lemegeton.”

“I know. don’t worry. I will definitely find it and make your dream come true.”

The doll’s ugly lips pouted.

“… Well, you’re good at talking about mere mortal subjects. Oh, come to think of it, I heard an interesting story in Gehenna.”

“Fun talk? What?”

“I heard that Barbatos competed with a human.”

I doubted my ears for a moment, wondering if I had heard it wrong.

I couldn’t believe it.

“human? The person I know?”

“Yes.”

8th in the hierarchy, Barbatos, the Demon God of War. He worshiped martial arts, loved martial arts, and was crazy, but as an unrivaled demon god that no one could touch, he was a battle madness himself.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the reason he lived through the time of endurance was to fight.

I muttered with a confused face as the shock had not yet subsided.

From noble mtl dot com

“No, how… . Of course it’s an incarnation, but how can it be with a human… .”

she said as if it didn’t matter.

“It’s possible because he’s an eccentric guy. But what’s even more bizarre is that human. He was a funny guy who called himself the sky for a mere human subject. The name… … .”

At that time, only one name passed through my head.

“… Small Heavenly Demon, Cheonakcheon.”

“okay! It must have been that name. Do you know this human?”

“… know.”

“okay? Come to think of it, he looks quite familiar for a human. where did i get this name… .”

Looking at the red full moon just in time, I murmured lowly.

“You know very well.”
