Surviving as an Academy Black Magician

Once in front, once in the window, once in the front, once in the window… .

repeated such actions.

Dyurahan, who had been in front of me until just now, disappeared without a trace in one spear.

Even if I saw it with my own two eyes, no, even if I made it that way in the first place, I couldn’t believe it.

Gulp, swallowing saliva, slowly scanned the spear in his hand.

“Demonic spear… … ..”

what is this… . scared… .

-To add, it’s not just because of the window. It’s because you have good compatibility with that spear. First of all, aren’t you my apostle? Just don’t make a fuss about something like this.

‘But it may be a bit out of the blue, but can I ask a question?’

-Tell me.

‘The way he speaks suddenly seems to have changed. Why is that?’

Silence flowed as if suddenly.

About 1 minute passed.

-… Isn’t there such a thing as authority? When I thought about it, I realized that the tone of this body seemed a little light.

‘is it? I don’t think you need to worry about things like that between us. hmm… . I think there must be a reason why I suddenly thought that way… . ah… no way! Did you look through my head again?’

Asmodeus, who seems to have a kind face for some reason even though he can’t see his face.

– Big, big. It’s not like that.

‘Honestly, from your point of view, as a demon at the beginning, the creations of the world I lived in must be very interesting.’

-right! This place is too boring for me… . I can’t even remember how long I have existed in this world. That is why you are so interesting to me, and the joy of discovering you is indescribable!

Her emotions were vividly felt in her excited tone.

time of eternity. Words didn’t even make sense.

She, who can be said to be a supreme being, must have spent a time far away that I, a human being, could not even dare to imagine.

Most of the gods, angels, or demons in the beginning were born from concepts.

When a certain concept is born, it naturally manifests itself in the world.

As she is in charge of lust and rage, and as she was originally an angel, she must have been born with the world.

Even if you show this in front of me.

I felt somehow uneasy.

‘It must have been difficult in the meantime.’

-… Do not try to understand this body on a mere mortal subject.

Having said that, it wasn’t that I didn’t like it.

‘So what happened to the apostle? Shion Sieghart is a human being, but how did he become your apostle?’

-he is… … . for a moment. There came a time when I had to go urgently. let me tell you next time

‘what? did you really go? really? really?’

There are two ways to drive a person crazy, the first is not to talk until the end… .

‘… … Really gone.’

At that time, Frey, who had come to his senses, approached me with an urgent face.

“Zile ball! What happened? Are you feeling well? I’m sure I even saw Dyurahan coming this way, but I can’t remember after that… .”

In the end, I couldn’t overcome the curse and lost consciousness.

“yes. it’s okay. I don’t know what’s going on, but luckily it seems to have gone well.”

“What happened after I fell?”

“Durahan approached me… .”

I didn’t want to complicate the situation, so I blurted it out.

For some reason, Dyurahan, who approached me, left without causing any harm.

‘Come to think of it, is Dyurahan completely annihilated? It’s too much to spend like that… .’

It wasn’t worth the trouble. Life in the academy itself is a series of hardships and adversity due to the fact that he is a black magician, but if there is an opportunity to increase his strength, isn’t it normal to use it?

‘I think he was a fairly famous knight in his lifetime… ..’

-Don’t worry, it’s not completely destroyed. It seems that they have also decided to accept you as their lord, so we will probably see each other again soon. And I also want to answer the questions related to Zion Sieghart right now, but unfortunately, it will be difficult to communicate for the time being. Something happened ‘this way’. I’m here to tell you that.

‘This way, to hell?’

-okay. It’s a war. Well, it’s like life to us… . I’m looking forward to it because it’s a little different this time. Anyway so know. Don’t go around getting beaten and humiliated while I’m out of this body.

‘okay. Whatever it is, solve it well.’

-OK.

It’s a war at this time… .

In a way, it was quite natural for them to struggle and kill, but rank and territory did not exist for nothing.

In particular, in a space made up of the logic of power as much as hell, I did not understand it even more because I tend to follow those laws thoroughly.

Even if the demons at the lowest rank are like that, the Seven Deadly Sins or the highest rank demons won’t move… .

Well, there’s nothing more stupid than worrying about Asmodeus in Hell, so let’s do our own thing first.

“I learned a lot from coming here. I still lack a lot. A knight can’t stand even that much… . On the other hand, Confucius Gail seemed to somehow hold on to his spirit until the very last moment. I am ashamed.”

My conscience stung as I saw Frey muttering with a very angry face.

In fact, if you look at her mental strength alone, she was already at a level far beyond the academy freshmen.

It was because he had withstood the notorious curse of Dyurahan only with pure mental strength.

I’m a dark magician who made a contract with the devil, so it didn’t work. It wasn’t because my mental strength was outstanding.

“… I’ve just been lucky. Frey. I know very well how brilliant your mind is.”

She raised her head and looked at me. A look of bewilderment was evident on his pale red face.

“That, that, is that so? Confucius Jail is such a mysterious person… .”

That moment. Whether he came to his senses belatedly or was pretending to come to his senses belatedly, Eden approached with a fuss.

“Ph, Mr. Frey! Mr. Gail! Are you all right!”

Frey looked at Eden and smiled.

“Yes, we are fine. Eden, you seem to have come to your senses now. Are there any places where you feel uncomfortable?”

Eden moved his body around and appealed that he was fine.

I watched this carefully. Somehow, it felt like an unnatural act to the point of being too exaggerated.

“Yes, fortunately I am fine! What happened? I don’t remember anything right after seeing the creepy black horse and the headless rider. omg. Seo, no way, did Zeil-sama solve the problem again!?”

Frey nodded proudly.

“That’s right. While we were unconscious, Confucius Zeil was the only one who was conscious.”

Eden approached me, grabbed my hand, and made a fuss.

“Awesome! As expected, the clan of heroes who saved the empire from the crisis of war is different from their mental strength. It is a great honor for me just to be able to take the test in the same group as Geil. If it wasn’t for Geil, I thought that maybe our group would have been eliminated this time. I’ve felt it before, but you seem to have extraordinary powers of observation and judgment, so why don’t you take the lead of our group? I think we need a representative to lead the group in order to pass the remaining exams safely.”

“I also agree.”

Second to the leader, at this point, it was undesirable to praise him and praise him to the point of being too exaggerated. At first, I thought it was just me being sensitive, but my doubt gradually turned to certainty.

‘okay. see you somewhere Even though your actions are from the heart, am I just misunderstanding, or if not, what kind of ulterior motive do I have in my heart while acting as a stupid and naive person on the outside?’

“… great.”

“Uh, by the way, where is Charlotte?”

“If it’s Charlotte… .”

Come to think of it, I couldn’t care about her because I was distracted by Dyurahan.

I looked around and saw Charlotte collapsed where I was earlier. It’s also quite ugly.

Since Dyurahan was gone, she seemed to have already come to her senses, but she was pretending to faint as best she could.

Eden, who hadn’t noticed, shook her as hard as she could and made a fuss.

“Charlotte! Charlotte! Are you okay? Did you pass out? Your face is pale. Could something be wrong?”

Then, he found a clear liquid near her buttocks and said with a serious face.

“What is this liquid identity that wets the floor?”

“… … .”

I didn’t say anything

“Liquid?”

Frey, knowing nothing about the situation, simply asked questions.

“Isn’t this a big deal… .”

Eden put his finger on the liquid on the floor with a rather serious face.

That moment-

“aaa!!!!”

Charlotte groaned and jumped up.

“charlotte! Are you okay?”

“are you okay! It’s okay, so go to the temple!”

“yes?”

“Oh, go to the temple! Do not vomit at my words and go if you want to go!”

Embarrassed by Charlotte’s sudden fire, Eden walked away with a shy face.

“… ah. Yes, sorry.”

Looking at the scene, Charlotte’s eyes met.

Laughter burst out without my knowledge. I couldn’t contain the laughter that leaked out.

“Poop.”

Charlotte, who had been glaring at me without saying anything, muttered in a very quiet voice.

“… If you leave, I will kill you.”

‘What? Are you out of your mind?

I mouthed it.

[Says.]

Her eyes, which had been staring at her intently, were broken, and soon turned into tears.

“Charlotte seems to have woken up too, so let’s go. Our group’s goal is to retrieve the mandrake.”

“Yes, captain!”

“captain? what is this sound?”

Charlotte asked back, and our kindly Eden gave a brief account of what had happened.

“… Really annoying.”

After hearing all the explanations, Charlotte became even more teary-eyed.

* * *

We walked back into the forest.

It seemed that they had come quite deep, but unlike the beginning, there were no monsters in sight.

It’s just that the surrounding scenery changes every moment. The unpleasant, chilly feeling intensified, but it wasn’t too bad, probably because I thought the end was approaching.

“Let’s take a break here for a while.”

You can’t taste, touch, or smell, but you can feel hunger. It was natural.

Therefore, rest was not an option, but a necessity. They ate porridge mixed with unknown weeds and sap.

Just looking at the visuals, it seemed like it came from somewhere in hell.

I wondered if the food was really something people could eat, but I finished my meal quietly as Eden confidently confided in his mouth that this is how they normally eat in his hometown.

Is it purely my delusion that prohibiting some senses seems to be rather useful?

I closed my eyes for a while, and when I was about to wake up, I heard Eden’s voice from far away.

“uh? captain. Is there another text here?”

At the place he pointed to, a large stone slab was erected.

[There is a mirror in front of this.]

Three roads stretched out before him.

“What should I do?”

Even just looking at it, it gave off an ominous aura. After discovering this type of handwriting in the first place, they immediately encountered Dyurahan, so the party was also quite wary.

‘The mirror and the three-pronged road… . Could it be that?’

After thinking, I opened my mouth.

“Looking at the situation, it looks like it will have to be torn apart. I’ll go left. Eden and Charlotte go to the center and Frey goes to the right.”

Eden answered lively.

“All right.”

Frey also nodded with a serious face.

Due to the memories of encountering Dyurahan, he seemed quite nervous.

Charlotte glanced at me with a sullen face, then turned her head away.

I said to my companions.

“You already know. Everything you encounter here is just an illusion created by the chairman’s magic. So, as long as you hold on tight, there won’t be a big problem. Also, don’t be shaken by any monsters or trials inside. This forest is a space prepared to test us. There is no problem we cannot solve. Then I will go first.”

After speaking, without hesitation, I entered the left fork.

After walking a little further, a mirror suddenly appeared in the middle of the street.

‘Maybe if I’m right, this place… .’

The ‘me’ in the mirror looked at me and smiled.

After a while, a voice came from the mirror.

“Hello, Seil Sieghard. No, is it Abel Croy? Or else… .”

Forest of Mirrors.

“Kim ■■?”

It was a doppelganger-themed ordeal.
