The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 320
Chapter 320
“Where and what is this bastard doing?”
Liana de Granz muttered with her arms crossed, frowning.
The Miss & Mr. Temple contest has already begun.
All of the Royal Class students who came to watch the contest were sitting in adjacent seats watching the contest.
“I know… … .”
Harriet quietly muttered at Liana’s nervous tone.
All of the contestants were just students like that, but they all had outstanding looks, and if that was a little lacking, they all had at least one outstanding individual skill.
Ellen’s participation number is 9.
Now that turn 7 has just ended, Ellen’s turn will come soon.
All the classmates including Kono Lint were there, but only Reinhardt was missing.
where do you do what
Harriet was in a mixed mood.
I don’t know what happened to Reinhardt, but I thought he would come, but he didn’t come.
According to Liana, the 5th grade senior also didn’t show up in the waiting room for some reason.
What are you doing?
It’s a place I have to come to, but why don’t I come?
I feel fortunate that this situation where Reinhardt doesn’t appear is at the same time I think it’s not.
Harriet knows that she is cowardly in not wanting Reinhardt to come. I was afraid to see what Ellen would look like today.
It was the same that everyone was puzzled that Reinhardt could not be seen.
Harriet watched the situation quietly, not knowing why she was nervous in the midst of anxiety and nervousness.
Participant No. 7, who was a bit nervous but calmly finished the dance of the Appeal Time, entered, and the time for the next participant, No. 8, came.
While the person’s turn was passing, Harriet herself became rather impatient.
and participant 9.
-Now, you are a Royal Class participant this time. As you all know, the royal class is numbered in order of skill, right? This time, the participant is the Royal Class 1st Grade A Class No. 2. It’s Miss Ellen!
Ellen walked out onto the stage with people applauding.
“… … .”
Of course I knew.
It’s because I always wear only my school uniform or training clothes. Harriet knows that Ellen has a very striking appearance.
However, seeing Ellen dressed up properly, Harriet almost opened her mouth in a daze without realizing it.
Riana seems to have been looking for the color that suits Ellen the most.
Ellen was now wearing a pure white dress. Her hair was tied up and accented with a ribbon. Likewise, Ellen, who was wearing white heels, seemed to Harriet to wonder if she stood out too much compared to the other contestants.
Liana was looking at Ellen like that with satisfaction, and her classmates as well as the audience who didn’t know Ellen were staring blankly at Ellen like that.
He practiced laughing lightly, and now it was perfect that he had a pretty plausible smile.
That’s enough.
Isn’t it comparable to Olivia?
Harriet thought so.
However, no matter what the onlookers were thinking, Ellen was still looking at the audience with a smile on her face.
As if looking for something.
Ellen, looking for something, soon met Harriet’s eyes, not the person she was looking for.
To be precise, her eyes met Harriet’s and she looked around. Like looking for someone who doesn’t exist anywhere.
And finally, the gaze returns to Harriet.
It was like asking something.
It looked like he was asking me if I couldn’t find it.
Even though Harriet was not the person present, her heart seemed to be tightened.
Ellen is asking Harriet with her eyes.
Didn’t Reinhardt come?
Harriet couldn’t quite figure out how to respond to that gaze. Because I can’t laugh and I can’t cry.
For some reason, he seemed to have a very strange expression on his face.
Ellen lowers her eyes.
As if Harriet’s trouble itself had already been answered.
-Is there any particular reason why you participated in Miss Ellen Temple?
-ah… … .
Ellen trembled.
There must have been something you wanted to say.
Harriet sees Ellen trembling still with her head hanging.
-Today, I want to show this image to someone in particular. Was there anyone like this?
-… … .
Ellen did not respond to the moderator’s question.
That was exactly what struck Ellen’s heart in this situation.
I have to say something, but what should I say? Seeing Ellen in agony, Harriet gritted her teeth.
A little while ago, Harriet thought it was a relief that Reinhardt didn’t come.
But seeing Ellen’s miserable appearance, I had only one thought.
It looks like Ellen will be ruined.
If nothing else, Harriet never wanted that much.
‘where are you… … .’
Harriet unknowingly clenched her fists.
‘Where are you doing… … .’
Harriet resented Reinhardt for not coming.
* * *
Sarkegar was watching the situation from the outskirts of the waste abbey. The monastery, which had been unused for a long time, was huge, but it gave off a dreary atmosphere because it had been abandoned for a long time.
Sarkegar still didn’t quite understand the situation.
I was told that there was something I needed to do, so I just followed it in a hurry, and I still don’t know how this situation is going.
However, there are people to be rescued and enemies to be annihilated.
I don’t know why, but it’s revealing their existence in earnest.
The goal, as always, is stealth.
This time it’s not kidnapping, it’s rescue.
Turning into a sparrow, Sarkegar easily flew over the outer wall of the monastery and headed towards the inside of the monastery.
The security was not strict, but there were little by little troops for security.
Among them, there are about 20 elites who can actually pose a threat.
The master ordered to rescue the two women.
A woman imprisoned in a monastery.
Even a woman who has just rushed into a monastery.
The number of people armed and able to use divine power in the monastery was probably more than that.
Sarkegar belongs to the demon species.
That’s why, even if it’s not as good as the undead Elleris, it doesn’t match well with divine power. That’s why he wasn’t too eager to infiltrate this place full of high-ranking paladins.
But do you have any dislikes for carrying out orders?
Sarkegar goes inside the monastery and flies cautiously, looking for signs.
-Where is Adriana?
Without having to look so closely, Sarkegar could hear the enraged voices coming from the clearing.
A woman who has just arrived at the monastery.
-That’s after hearing the answer from you.
-You know what the answer will be.
-Then you know what will happen.
-What do you want?
Sarkegar moved closer to the scene where the conversation could be heard.
An empty lot in a monastery.
A middle-aged man was sitting on an old chair around a bonfire, accompanied by several paladins, and across from him was a young blonde woman wearing a temple uniform.
Sarkegar knows that the middle-aged man is Leberier Ranche.
“Return to Tuan. And recant all your testimony and profess that you regret it.”
“… … .”
“The Five Great Main Church, with the Knights Templar as the main axis, will break away from the empire and establish an independent holy empire, and you will be the first emperor of that empire.”
“What… … . does not make sense… … .”
Olivia gazed at Leverrier Ranche.
prosperity.
Independent.
Olivia felt as if she would choke on the tip of her chin just hearing those words.
“… … What if you can’t do that?”
“Things will start to happen that you will regret.”
“Are you going to kill Adriana? The child who has not yet become a nun?”
“Let’s call it an unavoidable sacrifice. God will understand.”
Obvious contempt and disgust lingered on Olivia’s expression when she saw Leberier Ranche holding up a shield in the name of God in front of her evil deeds.
“… … Is this your father’s way? I was so resentful and resentful that I lost my power. Isn’t it your father’s way to even abandon your faith and not your humanity?”
“This is an inevitable choice to counter the threat to the five main religions. Also, if only you promise to come back, you know very well that no one will get hurt.”
“I am not going back.”
“Even if something happens to the child who saved you?”
“… … .”
Despair and resentment pass through Olivia’s expression.
LeBeria Ranche believes in the vision of making Olivia prosperous, but in reality LeBeria Ranche is aiming for the restoration of his honor and the restoration of his own rights caused by reversing Olivia’s words.
“Why me? Why are you here? If my father wanted to do something, he would just do it. I really don’t know why you’re trying to put me first. like this… … . I don’t know why you’re risking other people’s lives to threaten me. really… … .”
“As I always say, it’s because there is no one more qualified than you.”
“Don’t try to rationalize that, please… … .”
Olivia finally breaks down in tears with sadness.
“You just want power. You want to put me forward and satisfy your own greed. That’s why I created such a strange group. You want to reverse what I said and regain your power in order to restore your honor… … .”
“Olivia, I don’t think you understand what I mean. But people have a given role and destiny, and I live for that.”
Leberier Ranche had an attitude that would not allow even a toothpick to go in.
“My role was to lead the Demon World War to victory, and now it is to protect the Knights Templar, the favorites of the Five Great Religion, from the clutches of the Empire.”
In front of the sobbing Olivia, Leverrier Ranche does not reveal any personal feelings.
“And you are next to me. That’s how I decided and I grew up that way. If that doesn’t happen, I just make it happen.”
“how… … . why… … .”
“If you refuse, do you think it will end with Adriana alone?”
“!”
Olivia opened her eyes.
“Do you think you can’t touch Reinhardt?”
“What… … . what the hell… … . sound… … ?”
When the name Reinhardt came up, Sarkegar, who had been watching the situation, silently watched Leverier Ranche.
Sarkegar understood, though not fully, that Leberier Ranche had to be eliminated.
The author is the menace of Valier. As soon as the name Reinhardt was mentioned, Sarkegar clearly saw Olivia’s expression distort.
That woman was a clear ally of Reinhardt. Sarkegar gets that confidence too.
“If it doesn’t work with Adriana, you’ll just find someone else who is dear to you. Olivia I called you here to show you that this can’t be the end.”
“… … .”
“Give it up, Olivia. Before weeping and clinging on until a little pain becomes a bigger one.”
Olivia’s eyes went blank when she heard that, as if her pulse had been let go.
Adriana is just the beginning.
If you don’t give up, Lebarrier Ranche will destroy Olivia’s precious things one by one, no matter what.
Nothing can be achieved through threats and torture against Olivia, so Lebarrier Ranche looks for a way to dissuade Olivia from the outside.
Knowing that even if you put up with yourself getting hurt, you can’t stand getting hurt by those who are dear to you.
Olivia, accustomed to sacrifice, knows that she would rather sacrifice herself than see her loved ones hurt.
Just like when Radia Schmidt tried to destroy herself using Berserk, she gave up the championship and sacrificed herself in the name of abstention.
Lebarrier Ranche knew how to move Olivia.
“you are… … . devil… … .”
Olivia speaks in a desperate tone. The Paladins around them flinched at those words, but Leverrier Ranche raised his hand to stop them from opening their mouths recklessly.
“okay. If you can’t escape… … . This must be right.”
Olivia’s body starts to burn with explosive light and blue mana.
Olivia, who strengthened her body using both divine power and mana, glared at Lebarrier Ranche.
“If I die or if you die, it will all be over.”
Rather than live with this hopeless compulsion, Olivia eventually chose to resist rather than respond or succumb to it.
Because if you die, no one will be sacrificed.
But before that, if he could kill Leverier Ranche, who had plotted such a terrible thing, he would try to kill him. However, Leverrier Ranche was still calm in front of Olivia who showed her hostility.
“Do you think I didn’t know you would make that choice?”
Let Lebarrier Ranze beckon you. Two paladins appeared from somewhere in the hallway.
“… … !”
“You’ll see Adriana die the second she tries to do anything crap.”
“Seniors… … .”
Adriana with a miserable expression was being dragged into the clearing by the paladins. Olivia was looking at Leverrier Ranche with her eyes wide open.
“this… … . vicious… … !”
“Even if you try your hand here, it will only lead to dog death, and you will have to see Adriana die first.”
From the guilt on Adriana’s expression, she seemed to know well what she was being used as bait for and for what purpose.
Olivia couldn’t reach out after all. The moment Olivia was about to do something stupid, the sword pointed at Adriana’s neck would do its job.
“First of all, I don’t know why you think this is a bad thing. All of this is the first step in protecting church members. It’s about saving a lot of people. If you change your mind just a little bit, you can save a lot of people.”
Olivia couldn’t answer anything at Lebarrier Ranche’s words.
no i didn’t
The author sincerely believes in his words, so nothing can be said. He does not doubt himself because he believes that the path he takes is truly justice.
Olivia knows her adoptive father well.
he is such a person
A person who always asks for something and is never persuaded.
“Seniors… … . Never mind me!”
“Adriana… … .”
Adriana, who was being held, shouted at Olivia with a guilty look on her face.
Adriana’s expression was disillusioned beyond disappointment at all of this. It was an expression that he lost even the will to live because he was disappointed that the only thing he cared for was this much.
“Seniors… … I am fine. I am okay. As you wish… … .”
“Adriana! don’t say anything I… … . I… … .”
I.
Olivia was speechless afterward.
What should I do to save Adriana?
To save Adriana, you must stand in front of them.
You have to pursue something you don’t even want, whether it’s a holy empire or something.
Lebarrier Ranze may be able to become the Templar Commander again, but he has to lie that all the harsh things he did to him were lies.
Adriana is just the beginning.
Olivia coolly organizes her thoughts.
For now, let’s listen to them.
If you listen and confirm that Adriana is released safely.
let’s die
If you die, you won’t bother anyone to change your mind, and you won’t be able to bother yourself anymore.
Because his own death would be the greatest revenge for Lebarrier Ranche. Because those who want to take advantage of you probably want their own death the most.
Olivia thinks so and decides to accept the offer for now.
at that time.
– Squeak!
“Ouch!”
– Chop!
“ぅ!”
suddenly. A strange thing happened.
The heads of the two paladins holding Adriana were suddenly severed.
In the sudden fountain of blood, the mouths of Olivia as well as Leverrier Ranche hung open.
A shape took Adriana’s body as she watched the two decapitated corpses struggle in the dark.
“What is human?”
A dark figure that looks like a shadow muttered in the darkness with its red mouth open.
“How can you be so evil?”
The figure of darkness, which seems more evil than anything in the world, smiles as it speaks of human wickedness.
-Shhh!
“!”
As soon as the black figure reached out, a shadow enveloped Olivia’s entire body.
“This is… … !”
“Asmodians… … ?”
He spreads the wings of a shadow-like film that seems to have intertwined shadows and soars into the sky.
– Huung!
“Hehehehehahahahahaha!”
The monster that snatched Adriana disappeared into the sky in an instant with a mad light tearing through the night sky. It happened so suddenly that Olivia couldn’t even resist and was caught in the monster’s trap and dangled dangling in the night sky.
-What what is it! Let go!
It was a delicate and cute scream that did not match the serious and ominous atmosphere.
“What is that!”
“It looks like a demon!”
“Uh, how did the demons come to the ecliptic… … !”
Leverrier Ranche pointed at the mysterious demon monster that suddenly disappeared with Olivia and Adriana, but no one knew what it was.
But it didn’t take long to be embarrassed by the situation.
This is because there was a situation that made it even more embarrassing.
-Kurrureurreung!
Dense dark clouds hung in the night sky, and lightning shimmered in the dark clouds that formed.
– Flash!
Suddenly, lightning starts to fall from the sky.
Harriet de Saintoine summoned a thunderbolt during her battle with Olivia Ranze.
Dozens of such lightning strikes poured down.
-Kurrureurreung!
“Keugh!”
“It’s magic!”
The Paladins who were hit by the lightning began to protect themselves by activating their divine power, but those who failed to react properly were charred and crumbled in an instant.
The highest level of destruction magic, Thunderstorm, was cast.
“It’s an attack by demons!”
Paladins immediately grasped the situation and shouted, but the situation was not good.
Thunderstorm wasn’t the end. –
There were several strange gong sounds that seemed to distort the space around
Chiyiying Monastery, followed by huge shockwaves in the north, south, east, west, and west directions of the monastery.
– Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwang!
Four chain explosions.
Explosion was cast four times in a row, and the monastery, which had been devastated, collapsed and was crushed.
Paladins, priests, and members who did not use the protection so strongly were already shattered.
It’s a carnage.
Paladins begin to experience hell due to an unexpected raid by a high-ranking wizard.
Lightning rained down and the monastery was blown away by an explosion.
and.
-Kurrrrrrr
The earth is turbulent and sparks start rising from the ground.
A rain of lightning from the sky.
A storm of fire erupts from the earth.
Firestorm began to burn fiercely with the momentum to sweep the land.
“This… … .”
Lebarrier Ranche watches as the lightning strikes all over his body and the flames on the ground devour the Paladins.
There was a time when a firestorm like this erupted suddenly in front of the Templar headquarters.
There was a time when a dragon appeared and an unidentified lycanthrope appeared and made a mess.
Lebarrier Ranche wasn’t in charge of leading the succubus at the time, but he knew from the report.
Isn’t this what it felt like then?
An unidentified demon attack.
While the flame wave sweeps away, someone emerges through the flames and lightning.
As if the magic had deflected itself, they were unaffected by this mess.
There was a Lycanthrope demon in the shape of a wolf with a silver mane.
and next to it.
Something in the form of a human with blazing red hair and a pair of curved horns sprouting from its temples, but not human.
-Quarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
In the middle of Hell Island, a lycanthrope and an unidentified demon appear.
The demon was inside the wall of flame and had a sword with a milky white blade slung over its shoulder.
“Leberrier Ranche.”
This situation was a series of incomprehensible astonishment.
Lebarrier Ranze shouts while being hit by heat and lightning strikes with her eyes wide open.
“you… … . Who are you!”
“me?”
A demonic boy approaches him dragging his sword on the ground.
“My name is Valie.”
“He is the enemy of the Demon Realm.”
“I am the rightful heir to the Dark Lands.”
The boy aims a sword with a milky-white blade at Lebarrier Ranche.
There was no choice but to find out what the sword was, so Leverier Ranche widened his eyes.
“uh… … how… … crab!”
“ruler… … . You corrupt priest bastard.”
from one to ten.
Lebarrier Ranche did not understand this situation at all.
“It’s time to be punished.”
But even if you can’t understand it, the situation is happening.
The demon king holding the holy sword is trying to kill himself.
