The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 561

Chapter 561

Ellen seemed calm for the moment she was asleep. He seemed to have no worries or concerns.

However, it also started to suffer while breaking out in a cold sweat for a while.

I can’t help but have nightmares.

I will have nightmares intentionally by Airi, but Ellen will have nightmares intentionally.

Whether it’s because of a ghost trying to devour him, or because of the countless deaths he’s seen, or because of guilt.

“Ugh… … .”

I felt sorry for the cold sweat on Ellen’s forehead, but I wasn’t Airi.

I couldn’t do anything except crouch down a little closer to the nightmare Ellen.

The curious thing was that just by doing so, Ellen hugged me in my sleep and soon began to breathe evenly.

This is animal therapy… … . What is it… … ?

Of course some… … .

that.

It’s because I’m too close.

hmm… … .

uh.

yes it was

The next day.

Ellen, who woke up with foggy eyes, stood up.

“… … .”

– Meow

Ellen looks down at me.

This look is creepy now, but I had to get used to it.

It was an empty eye. It looks like something has engulfed his consciousness. It seems to move more like a machine rather than a human.

Ellen looked at me slowly for about three seconds, then looked away and got up. Something other than Ellen moves Ellen’s body.

It’s not that the conversation doesn’t work.

In fact, I know that I go out on missions like that and always come back safely.

Ellen, with cloudy eyes, went into the bathroom, washed, came out, got ready, put on her armor, and activated the armor holder.

-Clap! Clap!

The seams of the armor are connected by themselves, and Ellen wears a splendid warrior’s armor.

The cloak of the sun and the sword of the moon were summoned on its shoulders and waist.

Ellen left the tent without looking back in my direction.

After all these things are repeated, will Ellen disappear as the time that Ellen’s consciousness is maintained gets shorter and shorter?

I can’t do anything.

It is impossible for me to force the souls out of Ellen’s body.

The only thing that can do that now is Lucinil. Not only that, but all the other Lord Vampires must also be present.

And Lucinil, as well as the Lord Vampires in the Senate, would not proceed with the ceremony no matter how much I asked. In particular, it is certain that Antirianus will reject or interfere with it.

Even if it is pulled out, someone has to handle the huge collection of ghosts.

It is a problem whether I enter the body of someone who hates me or the body of someone who loves me.

It doesn’t change the fact that Ellen is the only person in the world who can stand it the best.

At the moment of the end to come someday, we have to risk everything and do something.

In the hopes that he could save Ellen then.

I looked at the back of something in the shape of Ellen leaving the barracks without saying a word.

* * *

As soon as morning dawned, Ellen left the Royal Class Garrison.

Although Ellen in that state is like a machine, she doesn’t harm or harm anyone. Most people don’t even know what has changed.

In the first place, Ellen was quiet and silently did what she ordered, so unless you know Ellen well, you don’t know what’s wrong.

I don’t know if it’s Ellen that I’ll have to fight someday or something that has consumed Ellen’s body.

The future I saw in the preview is that I will be defeated by Ellen and Ellen will commit suicide in front of my corpse.

I don’t know if Ellen in that form is really Ellen or Ellen who has been taken over by ghosts.

I am training my image so that I will not lose at the moment that will come someday, but I just keep losing.

If you can win just once in reality at the cost of dying tens of thousands of times in your dreams, that’s enough, but you won’t know unless the situation hits you.

I am no different, as I do what I have to do no matter who is in control of Ellen’s body right now.

I saw that Ellen’s condition was not serious, but it was getting worse little by little.

I headed back to Anna’s tent, but it was still empty.

I could tell as soon as I saw him whether he hadn’t returned or if he had come in late and left early in the morning.

The inside of the tent was no different from what we had seen yesterday.

Anna didn’t come back yesterday.

Due to the nature of magic research or experiments, it is often necessary to stay up all night, and professional researchers sometimes sleep in the laboratory, so I wonder if it is like that.

And the Royal Class students, who looked at me just like yesterday, talk about cats. They don’t know that I’m wondering where Anna is.

And it’s a little bit like saying this, but Ellen’s side saying this and that as if she’s talking to me is weird.

When everyone saw me, there were more people who carelessly petted me or talked to each other.

Information gathering in the form of a beast has inevitable limitations.

That is, exploration is impossible.

Since it is impossible to ask questions, I have no choice but to collect information only in the stories that come and go between people.

blast furnace.

If it’s human, it’s a problem that can be solved by asking where Anna is, but since it’s a cat, if Anna doesn’t come up on the topic of conversation, you can’t know where she went or what she’s doing.

and problem.

“When did this guy come back again?”

“He’s grown up too.”

-Cat

people come up and talk about cats, but they don’t talk about anything I’m curious about.

Even if he eavesdrops on something, it is exhausting to wait for the topic of Anna to come out while hovering around for thousands of years.

Should I just call Kono Lint for this?

If it was him, he might know where Anna went.

however.

I don’t want to tell you that the cat in the Royal Class Garrison was actually Reinhardt.

that… … . I know it doesn’t matter if Kono Lint finds out. If I were to argue, I was told something I shouldn’t have told me, so I wondered if it would change anything if I knew more.

Listening to more bizarre perverts here is a specification.

You don’t even need to be caught looking like a cat. … . With something like that, you can somehow run into him outside the Royal Class Garrison.

As you said, Sarkegar or I will be the only woman like this who will be twisted into your life, so you know roughly, right? If you do, you’ll know right away.

But in the first place, Kono Lint is a non-combat force. So, the use of the guy always happens.

Since he can move anywhere at once, to be honest, Kono Lint is the hardest one to find.

Also, if you tell them not to find out what is going on, then if you call them again, they will lose their shape.

No, but this bastard isn’t really trying to figure this out on his own, is he? I don’t know if I’m going to have a real big trouble.

It is certain that Anna has not returned to her garrison.

But even so, I can’t tell if Anna is really involved in this or not.

Sarkegar is also collecting information in his own way, so even if I’m a fool, there might be information from them.

Once on my side, the limits were clear and I was only in the Royal Class Garrison.

Sarkegar, who was examining the entire Allied Garrison, might have gotten some other information.

* * *

Scheduled meeting place at the specified time.

Returning to my human form, I met Sarkegar in a lonely place in the warehouse area of the Allied Garrison.

“Gathering information is difficult.”

“… … Is that so too?”

Getting information about Titan wasn’t so easy either. But in this case, it is a kind of research or experiment that should never be known.

So, it would have had a different level of security than the case of Titan.

“Basically, wizards have a habit of not letting the outside world know what they are researching. That’s why security is tighter than other places.”

“habit?”

“Yes, it’s like a dog burying a bone in the ground.”

Sarkegar’s words were ridiculous even in this situation.

Magicians morbidly hate revealing their own research results to others. That’s why they tend to be obsessive about security.

The fact that it’s close to a habit means that even if it’s a study that doesn’t have to be a secret, they do it.

“Wizards also tend to encrypt the documents themselves. This is true even when it is a joint study, and even more so when it is an individual study.”

“… … They are nobles who live a tiring life.”

“So, I confirmed that each garrison where wizards were gathered had a large amount of classified documents, but there were very few documents that could be grasped.”

“The classified documents may have nothing to do with this case, right?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Wizards’ security obsession and encryption are now a stumbling block.

In the case of Titan, it was a very large project that was too difficult to hide. In the first place, each part of Titan was enormous, so transportation itself required a tremendous amount of manpower.

“How about finding a place where research or experiments are being conducted?”

“As I said, in most cases, the encampment of each wizard group is much more strictly controlled than the enclave of the royal class.”

There are so many candidate sites and most of them are hard to get into, so I don’t know where to go. The Allies are a moving army. Even so, even within this garrison, if it is enough to form an area with strict access control, you can’t help but know how strong the magicians’ obsession with security is.

And, of course, it would be difficult for Sarkegar to infiltrate the area where the Imperial Magicians were stationed, and even if they succeeded in infiltrating it, it would be even more difficult to secure conclusive evidence.

After all, Sarkegar hasn’t figured out anything yet.

“Hmm… … . In this case, it’s not much different from Titan, but… … .”

“If that’s actually going on, it’s true that you’ll need a huge area that’s hard to hide.”

It is an experiment on thousands of corpses. The size of the result may not be comparable to Titan, but the scale of the experiment itself should be huge enough to be comparable to the Titan project.

An experiment where security is very important.

But an environment where people have too many eyes.

Where the hell is the Allied garrison doing that experiment?

I never knew.

If Anna is involved in this experiment, you can find out where the research site is just by following her. However, they do not return to the Royal Class Garrison, as if they are staying at the place where the research is being conducted.

“I will have no choice but to keep looking. Keep investigating. Don’t do anything too risky. I will do my own thing too.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Sarkegar nodded quietly and turned into a black cat and disappeared somewhere.

Something.

Is it really that complicated?

Should I say that I seem to be missing something very simple?

It was such a strange feeling.
