The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 288
Chapter 288
Monday.
It was the long-awaited start of the Temple Festival, and it was a week with many tasks to be solved for me.
For one week from today, the temple will be open to all civilians.
Of course, most of the parents come to the temple to see their children. As students from all continents gather, there are cases where parents come to meet their children in celebration of the festival, and there are also people who are just people from the zodiac but come to enjoy the temple festival.
Of course, even in this case, the safety of the temple students is the top priority, so there is a restricted area, so the defense is much stronger than usual.
However, even if the defense is sure, there is no change in the fact that a large number of people will eventually gather.
The fact that the temple is open to civilians means that it is during this festival that the temple is most vulnerable.
There are no accidents this year, but next year’s year-end festival right before the gate explodes, taking advantage of the vulnerable point to create a commotion.
But I’m not sure if that will happen or not.
If the changed history has an impact, the accident could happen again this year.
If the Black Order were to visit me at Temple, this timing would be the easiest. So far, they haven’t used their hands to see if they’re coordinating their opinions internally.
If it comes, you will have to respond in your own way. I’m pretty sure they’re not trying to kill me at least.
Monday anyway.
It’s the festival period, but it’s not vacation yet.
Cliffman, Ellen, and Riana all returned to the dormitory.
All the students of the Royal Class were now assembled in the main hall according to the student council’s instructions.
In front of all the Royal Class students on the first floor, student council president Ceres Van Owen was standing on the stairs.
“Starting today, the Gradias Temple Festival will be held for a week.”
Because it was in front of the entire school, she used honorific titles.
“Originally, the Orbis class and the Royal class were supposed to participate in the opening ceremony at the Great Stadium, but as you know, all official events and schedules to be held during the festival as well as the opening ceremony have been canceled this year.”
“So, in a very unusual way, the royal class is given unlimited free time during this festival. Students who wish to personally participate in tournaments or festivals are free to do so.”
“This year, you just have to enjoy the festivities. Do what you want to do, and play when you want to play. All of you who have been working hard this year can participate in activities to check your achievements or take a break.”
“There are no official event notices, but general notices will be disseminated.”
“Currently, a significant number of civilians have entered the temple. They are people from all walks of life and from all walks of life. I ask you not to cause unnecessary quarrels with civilians, and I hope that you will not be quarreled.”
“There is always a lot of friction between students and civilians at temple festivals. It could be a mistake by students or it could be a mistake by civilians. If an unidentified civilian exerts undue pressure on you, contact a nearby guard for assistance and action will be taken immediately. The security is currently heavily reinforced, so you should be able to see the Temple guards everywhere. Of course, if you use pressure or force, it can be dealt with as well.”
In a word, it was a message saying don’t get hit and don’t get hit. Ceres Van Owen looks down at the students after concluding their words.
“As the president of the Royal Class Student Council, I hope that this festival will end your year successfully.”
The festival is an event enjoyed by all temple students who have worked hard throughout the year. So, after playing and having fun, you can greet the winter vacation with a comfortable mind.
of course.
To me, this felt like the final gateway to the year, not a break after a hard run.
Through the tournament, I verify how much my skills, which I didn’t know how to do at the beginning of the semester, have improved.
If I win the freshman tournament, I’ll see how far I can go in the unrestricted tournament finals.
Miss and Mr. Temple.
And even the bloody dress up contest.
Let’s get over this gobi and take a breather.
“I hope you have a good festival. more.”
The festival started with applause from the students. With those words, some students jumped out of the dormitory as if they had been waiting for this moment, and as always, there were those who returned to the dormitory with a plain expression as if they were not interested in the festival.
Harriet was moving with a group of people.
They were members of the Magic Research Society.
– You guys play. I’m fine.
– No, it’s okay. Let’s go.
-It’s really okay… … .
– There are still many things to improve. It’s not long before the finals, but I need to refine it more.
The members of the 1st year magic research club gathered around Harriet.
– Junior! Are you practicing today? aren’t you playing?
Even Rudina added to it.
-Ah yes… … . I’m going to. You can go to the festival… … .
– No, this is more fun!
-That’s it… … .
It seems that the Magic Research Society is supporting Harriet, who participated in the Unlimited Tournament.
I didn’t tell you how I did it, but I won the group stage of the unlimited tournament and advanced to the finals.
It’s something I’m not confident about, but Harriet did it.
The fact that Harriet’s actual fighting ability is at that level means that even if Harriet’s fighting ability is very small, it is the same as mine and there is a very high possibility that it will be higher.
Getting hit here and there, getting hurt, rolling, and being sad.
Harriet felt a desire to become a good fighter and was eventually succeeding at it.
So, rather than enjoying the festival, Harriet seemed to be concentrating on preparing for the Unlimited Tournament. It seems that the members of the Magic Research Society are helping with that.
By gathering together with the same major, they are already creating synergy that is separate from the work I ordered.
Good thing.
Harriet met my eyes before going to the Magic Research Club.
He might come to watch, but Harriet will be busy with her own business.
After a moment of apologetic look, Harriet left the dormitory.
No, it’s not a big deal, but I don’t think there’s a need to be sorry.
Harriet left the dormitory.
I was at the back of the Class A dorm row, and Ellen was at the front.
You must have tried on various things over the weekend and wondered what to do at Miss Temple.
The guy turns his head and looks at me.
I left the temple on Friday and came back late last night, so it’s like seeing my face for the first time in a few days.
As for makeup, the Duke of Grantz would have tried it, but of course Ellen had a bare face and was dressed in a school uniform.
“?”
Ellen tilts her head as I stare at her.
however.
What should I do?
I don’t think there’s much difference from usual, but I think I’ve become prettier for nothing.
– Ellen! come to my room My new cosmetic order just arrived this morning.
-Ah yes.
Ellen looked at me and was dragged by Liana’s arm.
-Do you have to call me?
-ah. Yes… … .
-At this point, isn’t it time to take care of yourself? Why is the kid slow?
– I’m sorry… … .
Ellen on the right and Cliffman on the left.
Liana dragged it off.
Ellen was staring at me as she was being dragged away.
Are you debating whether or not to come to the tournament today?
how to say
Rather than having fun, everyone seems busier than usual, what can I say… … .
It’s a festival, but doesn’t it feel like a festival?
It felt like that.
“Reinhard!”
– Wow!
“What else!”
Suddenly, Olivia hugged me as if she were running behind me, and I jumped in surprise.
“Let’s play with my sister! There are many things I want to eat and many things I want to do!”
Olivia looks at me with her eyes twinkling.
“I’m busy with the finals of the freshman tournament today.”
“Oh right! Then can I go see you today?”
“When it comes, it comes, and when it doesn’t, it ends.”
As Olivia was talking about that, her eyes met Ellen, who was being dragged away by Liana from afar.
“I heard she’s coming out with Miss Temple?”
“yes… … . I say yes.”
Olivia loosens her arms around me and looks back and forth between me and Ellen.
“Are you going to film me?”
I didn’t answer and Olivia pinched my cheek.
“An idiot who can’t even talk.”
Olivia laughed bashfully and went somewhere.

Monday.
Numerous events, performances, and events are taking place all over the temple, but I was far from the glitz and bustle of such festivals.
Today is the day of the first year tournament finals. The finals for each year’s tournament will continue to be held in the same arena and the seats will be filled with spectators.
I belong to Group A. it’s the first game
There are a total of 32 freshman finalists.
Round of 32, Round of 16 and Round of 8.
Three matches are to be played, with the semifinals and finals remaining tomorrow.
To prepare for the freshman tournament, I moved in with Ludwig Scarlett.
Needless to say, Scarlett and Ludwig also made it through the preliminaries.
Ludwig smiled happily as he looked at the bracket.
“Did the group split up by accident? thank god.”
I was Group A, Scarlet, Group B, Ludwig, Group C. There is nothing to meet until the winner of the group stage of the finals is determined.
If we’re going to face each other in a tournament, it’s at least the semifinals.
“Is it a coincidence?”
“Did you make it this way on purpose, then?”
Ludwig… … .
My sin for making you like this is great.
“Of course, if you drive the championship candidates into one group, there’s nothing to see later.”
“Oh, I see… … .”
There are a total of four groups in the final round.
Group ABC has members from the royal class.
And there is a name you know on the Group D bracket.
Gladen Amorel.
The Orbis class disappeared, but the one who moved to the normal class joined the battle.
Other guys from the Orbis class might have names, but there were no names I knew. Nilsonia, Rilka Aaron, Ender Wilton, etc.
An unknown guy might have participated, but we confirmed that Group D’s Gladen Amorel was there.
If we win the group stage, who will face Gladen Amorell?
I don’t know yet.
We were on our way to the stadium where the finals of the tournament were held. There, three matches will be played today, followed by the semifinals and finals tomorrow.
Ludwig was laughing.
“I heard that all the kids are coming later, so what if I get nervous?”
There are only two finalists in the B class. So, except for a few guys, to watch the tournament as a group. To be precise, it seems that he will come to see Ludwig and Scarlett’s propaganda.
It looks like everyone will come, except for the Magic Research Society.
how about mine
Ellen and Harriet probably won’t come… … .
Olivia should be said to come. But Olivia seemed a bit angry earlier, but I don’t think she’ll come.
how about charlotte? Do you want to come because there are also class B kids? Then you might not have to come to see me.
No, I just have to do my job whether I come or not.
Why are you a little sad?
Why am I the only one who feels like my parents aren’t coming to a sports event where everyone else’s parents are coming?
It’s because I’ve been a kid for too long. I don’t think there’s really much difference from a kid, but now?
“Reinhardt! Let’s do our best!”
“uh.”
A stiff answer popped out for no reason.
