I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy

5 – first match – 2

A ridiculously run-down training ground that even failing students don’t visit.

The place where only dust was blowing dizzy was crowded with people for some reason. It was a gathering of about 30 failing class students.

Charlotte and Adrian side by side. The sight of the two students surrounding them in a circle was like an arena.

“They said that they taught mainly on actual practice, did that mean this?”

“Well. It’s better than sitting in a boring lecture room.”

Students in groups of threes and threes whispered each other.

“Michelle. Why are you here alone?”

Michelle Maynance.

When it comes to the Maynance family, telekinesis. When it comes to telekinesis, it is the Maynance family.

Strange two-tone hair with white and light green in harmony and green eyes. Those were the things that people who called her name usually thought of.

one more there.

Even though she is a lofty aristocratic lady, in the recent level measurement, she was on the verge of dying. Isabel asked her with a twinkle in her eyes.

“Wouldn’t it be better to go to the front and take a look?”

“take no interest.”

Michelle used her telekinetic powers to remove the bandage on her arm.

There was no reason to be interested in whatever happened in the failing class.

I only fell in this class because I met a natural disaster called Hamilla in the level measurement. As time passes, you will naturally be promoted to the upper class.

It’s normal to not be interested. It’s not even half that long.

‘However… ‘

After tying the bandages, she looked at the face of the man standing next to Charlotte.

It was a strange thing. Michelle carefully examining someone’s face. Even she herself felt that way.

Since he is not interested in the special class, it is only natural that he is not interested in the professor of the special class. I should have done that.

‘Why?’

He was a man with a strangely eye-catching side.

Is it because the jawline is sharp and the eyes are sharp?

No, not just for that reason. Michelle was already an adult to judge people based on their looks.

“New professor, don’t you think something is great?”

“Not at all.”

It was Michelle who cut Isabel’s words like a knife.

I do not know.

Anyway, I don’t like that professor. It’s like the way I told you to raise your hand and talk…

There is no way to excel in the first place. If you are an outstanding person, there is no way that the president sent you to be in charge of the failure class.

After taking a deep breath, Michelle stood up.

“yes? Aren’t you watching Michelle?”

“take no interest. I’m going to the infirmary.”

“Oh, can I help you?”

“……I do not need.”

And please don’t talk to me in the future. Because you and I are different.

Still, he swallowed the words in his mind.

* * *

Professor Adrian stood next to Charlotte.

“……?”

Aren’t we going to fight and fight from now on? Then we have to face each other. But Adrian clearly stood by Charlotte’s side.

“The way to decide the winner is simple. charlotte.”

Adrian snaps his fingers, and three scarecrows appear in the middle of the training ground. They were scarecrows made of pure blue mana.

“Think of that scarecrow as a demon, and use the most powerful magic you can.”

When you snap your fingers once more, the scarecrow’s shape changes.

It takes the form of specific demons such as wolfen, vampires, and half-dragons. Vividly, as if it would come to life at any moment.

“They are just targets, so there is no counterattack. If you defeat even one, you win.”

Defeat the unresisting target. It might be easier than you think.

For Charlotte, who had been anticipating a duel with Adrian in her head, this felt much easier.

Because, a duel of wizards basically has too many things to think about.

While there is offensive magic, there is also magic that exists for defense. It is complex and difficult to consider all those numbers.

… However, isn’t this the end of the attack?

It seems that the other students were also expecting to see Charlotte and Adrian duel. There were quite a few students who dismissed the school with a sad sound.

“The time limit is two hours, and thereafter I will put one condition per hour.”

“Do it yourself.”

If you lose anyway, you’ll be expelled from this academy.

“start.”

Charlotte immediately warmed up the mana in her body.

First of all, let’s start with the Wolfen. The talent of the fire element was passed on to Charlotte by her parents. Werewolves, the Wolfen, are vulnerable to fire.

『Flame Arrow』

It was a skill with absolute confidence in speed alone. If this was to penetrate the vital points, even the huge Wolfen would not be able to withstand it.

The magic formula of this technique is only 5 strokes, draws a line in his head, then blows magic power along the circuit.

‘now.’

When everything finally comes together and your mage’s intuition kicks in, you stretch out your index and middle fingers—

Pan-!

Flame arrows are fired at a formidable speed. At the same time as it was fired, the blazing arrowhead collided head-on with the wolfen scarecrow’s left chest.

Ting-!

But it bounces nicely.

Charlotte chewed her lips at the futile sight. No matter what, does it make sense that I was fine when I was directly hit by that thing on my bare body?

“I would have told you to unleash the most powerful one.”

“This is mighty enough—”

“Not full yet.”

The man’s speech was cool and clear.

“It is commonly known that the wolfen are vulnerable to fire, but strictly speaking, they are only vulnerable to fire of higher ranks or higher. Basically, it is durable.”

Damn, advanced magic… Advanced Magic… .

In fact, I don’t even know how to handle advanced fire magic yet.

But I have the hatred that I must kill the demons, the mission that I must tear apart, and the revenge of my parents that I must fulfill…

I want to show that right here. I want to prove that will.

‘The most powerful technique. most powerful technique. The most powerful skill.’

I searched through my head again and again and tried to find a powerful flame magic spell.

Flame Explosion, Ignite, Flame Sweep… Several names popped into my mind, but suddenly the strokes of the spell didn’t come to mind.

Let’s not be impatient, we have been given two hours.

It’s a headache level. In the end, Charlotte even drew a spell with the tip of her index finger on the palm of her hand to organize her twisted memories.

It must have been around the time I almost remembered the spells of 『Ignite』.

“As expected, if you encounter demons, you will die.”

Adrian’s heavy voice hit Charlotte’s ears.

“Are you going to do that even with demons in front of you?”

“……It’s noisy.”

Maybe because I bit my lip too hard, I could feel the fishy taste of blood in my mouth.

I immediately used Ignite. This time towards the Vampire Scarecrow.

Hwareuk-!

A ferocious flame burns from the scarecrow’s body. However, that was all. it doesn’t fall

“Vampires are weak to the sun or fire are just rumors. It has been quite some time since the blessing of the vampire queen offset that shortcoming.”

“It’s noisy.”

My heart beats like it’s about to burst.

I can’t remember one or two of the spells, and it cools down to become the mana I had preheated. Even the flow of mana into the circuit causes a drop or two of error.

-If you meet a hundred times, you will die on your side.

– That’s awful.

-Only the surface is shiny.

Oh shit, now even when Adrian keeps his mouth shut, those voices linger in his ears.

‘Concentrate.’

Concentrate on doing it right again. obviously you can do it

no, can you?

If we go back to the time when our parents died in this state, will we be able to save them? I have to save it, but is it possible to save it with this kind of ability?

There’s no reason to be impatient, but I know I have to take it one step at a time—

It can’t be.

“ah… ”

breathing quickens

Ironically, the only spell I can remember in my head is 『Flame Extinction』.

I couldn’t find a single stroke to change the output, but there is no option. I drew the spell right away. Pours all remaining mana into the circuit.

Whoops—!

huge explosion. After a while the smoke clears.

“ah…”

The scarecrows were still fine.

so cruel.

.

.

.

“It’s open.”

“What, that’s not funny.”

The number of spectators watching Charlotte’s match quickly dwindled.

At first, a small number were watching, but after a few hours, even that was gone.

Even then, Charlotte was repeatedly detonating Flame Extinction.

All other skills did no damage. In front of the demon scarecrow, he showed a terrible power to the point of despair.

There is only one way left to defeat the scarecrow, the only way is to find the last stroke.

Adrian’s explanation was jaw-droppingly accurate.

Charlotte’s flame extinction, which couldn’t find the last stroke, only stung the scarecrow.

What kind of stroke do you mean?

One more stroke here, the technique itself failed.

One more stroke on this side, the speed slightly slowed down.

One stroke was added to this side, and an error occurred in the direction.

One stroke added to this side, rather, the explosive power decreased.

“aaaa… ..”

He covered his face. If I hadn’t trimmed my fingernails, they would have pierced the skin.

His face, which he held in his hands, was damp. Charlotte was crying at some point.

Indignant at one’s own weakness, tired of one’s powerlessness.

Suddenly everything is scary. Wouldn’t I die helplessly in front of the demons?

I tried to be the one who saved my parents, but I was still dependent on finding them in the fragments of my memories.

“Black… .. Ugh… ”

As the moon hung in the sky, Charlotte cried bitterly.

how much more did i cry

how much more time has passed

By the time she couldn’t figure it all out, Charlotte quietly stood in front of Adrian. It was not easy to even stand in front of the professor because his body was heavy.

“Give up… I’ll do it.”

What face is he making?

It’s dark and I can’t see maybe you’re laughing

Wouldn’t he have continued to laugh at Charlotte for this long time?

Without a word, Adrian started drawing the flame extinction spell on the dirt floor.

“Six hours and four minutes. charlotte.”

A cool night at Rahal Academy.

There was no sound except the sound of Charlotte whimpering and Adrian casting spells on the floor.

“First of all, we only put five conditions.”

He didn’t even look at Charlotte. He just silently draws a drink. Charlotte also nodded quietly.

what condition is it I hoped it wasn’t just a suspension or expulsion.

Perhaps conditions will be so dire that suspension or expulsion feels better.

Even if you insult yourself, don’t show displeasure, listen to lectures outside the classroom…

“First, I will faithfully attend from now on.”

The tone was cooler than the night air, but the content far exceeded Charlotte’s expectations.

Charlotte’s body trembled at the unexpected thing.

“Second, go home before ten o’clock at night.”

“Third, if you encounter demons, run away.”

“Fourth, don’t fight with other students.”

I had no choice but to listen quietly.

The sentence itself is not difficult to understand, but the situation is not understood.

While listening to his voice, which had no malice at all, Adrian quietly grabbed Charlotte’s wrist.

“Finally fifth.”

Using the girl’s index finger like the tip of a brush, she adds a horizontal stroke to the spell.

It was never a rough move. A gesture of warmth and consideration, different from simple compassion.

When the last stroke was finally drawn through Charlotte’s fingertips.

The scarecrows fall down with a roaring sound.

It was an explosion with twice the power, no more than that. Charlotte’s eyes widen.

“Never forget this one stroke.”

The man’s face briefly illuminated by the flash of an explosion—

Clearly, there was a faint smile.
