The Demon Prince goes to the Academy - Chapter 637

Chapter 637

Two days after the fall of Wallen.

“At this rate, the entire object will be restored within five days.”

Temple College of Magic Underground Lab.

Cristina nodded slowly as she looked at the Immortal, whose body was slowly recovering from damage in the port.

What immortals fear is not force, but self-repair.

Since it is no different from a golem, it is a machine that can be restarted by simply repairing it.

That’s why Immortal’s real power comes from resurrection.

It is an army that never dies.

The only living being in the army.

Ludwig.

Of course, Ludwig participated in the Battle of Wallon as a member of the Immortals wearing a helmet and face armor.

All individuals possess exceptional strength, but Ludwig was unique among them.

In order to withstand the black magic, he had to undergo more powerful black magic and chimera treatment. That’s why Ludwig had no choice but to be more powerful than other immortals.

For the price of enduring the unbearable, it is stronger than other immortals.

The allied forces had only fought one battle since the Battle of Serandia, but Ludwig, who moved with the Immortals, had little time to rest.

As long as he fought alongside the dead soldiers who did not get tired, Ludwig had no choice but to be put on more battlefields.

Occasionally seizures from rejection occur, but after the Battle of Wallen he was in fairly good shape.

“Woo-wook… … .”

Ludwig swallowed the dark red liquid and covered his mouth.

“Wook! Whoops!”

After a moment of gagging, Ludwig managed to inhale the liquid and let out a deep sigh.

Even Ludwig, whose physical strength was his only ability, had gout through countless battles.

Beside him, Louis Ankton and Anna were checking on Ludwig.

What Ludwig drank now was an alchemy potion that alleviated the rejection reaction.

“The effect is certain. I’m sorry to say this, but… … . Why is this not so tasty… … ?”

Ludwig was gagging, covering his mouth and catching his breath.

Ludwig wasn’t having a rejection attack right now, he was gagging because of the awful taste.

“I don’t know if it was written, but something smells disgusting… … . I feel like my tongue is rotting as well as the taste… … .”

Ludwig, who had endured the pain that would have shocked a normal person, shuddered as if he couldn’t stand the taste of the tranquilizer.

Cristina shrugged, looking at Ludwig, who had become even more emaciated from the nasty taste of the tranquilizer.

“Actually, there’s no reason it should taste so disgusting.”

“… … huh?”

“I made it that way on purpose.”

“Huh?”

At that, not only Ludwig, but also Louis and Anna, who were checking Ludwig’s physical condition, were shocked.

Did you deliberately make it taste disgusting?

“As long as you eat it, you will keep looking for it. I purposely made it that way so that you only drink it when you really need it.”

“… … Is this bad for you?”

“It can’t be good.”

The stabilizer prevents Ludwig’s body from collapsing or rejecting it, but in the end it is a very dangerous item in itself.

“It’s okay right now, but there’s nothing good about drinking often.”

So when he said that he deliberately made it taste disgusting, Ludwig nodded with a bewildered expression.

“by the way… … . People saw Immortals in this battle. Is that okay?”

Louis Ancton said it carefully.

Until now, it had been operated in secret, but in this battle, the Immortal was revealed to all allied forces.

As a result, everyone knew that the atmosphere was getting upset in real time.

“The situation must be complicated, but it is none of our business.”

As Christina said, politics belongs to those who play politics.

“If people know about the identity of the immortal, it will be a big deal… … . It will get complicated.”

“It’s good when it gets complicated.”

Christina says, looking from a distance at the ports that are regenerating.

“If things get complicated, those hiding will come out one by one.”

“… … ah.”

“If you hide after everything is over like this, the guys you’ll never find will show up one by one.”

Cristina is not interested in politics or how things are going.

But in the midst of chaos, opportunities always arise.

When an opportunity arises, those who want to seize it will appear.

Those who have been hidden and have not been able to find them until now will come out among them.

You just need to know that.

You don’t need to know more than that.

who causes confusion.

Who uses confusion.

“We just have to wait for that.”

And the one who waits for everyone to gather in the chaos.

In each of their different thoughts, the gate crisis is heading toward an end.

“Let’s go back soon.”

They do not have to be resident in these already automated facilities.

After all, everyone has one goal.

Everyone goes there together.

* * *

There are people who communicate with the devil.

The allied forces continued to move toward their next destination, but at the same time, a fierce war of nerves was unfolding with each other.

“How can something like this happen? We need to find and punish the evil group that has been in liaison with the traitors of mankind as soon as possible.”

There are those who claim so.

“This weapon of the Hana Empire is too dangerous. Of course, those who conspired with the demon king are also important, but it is clear that recklessly supporting the empire’s actions is also very dangerous.”

There are people who hate both.

“… … .”

There are those who do not say anything, suppressing the words they want to say.

A place without an emperor.

Louise von Schwarz watched silently as influential people from all over the world gathered in the barracks of the Kernstadt Army Headquarters and talked about such things.

Powerful people from various places tried to find a central point in this chaotic situation.

They couldn’t gather under the Emperor who touched excessively dangerous power, so as an alternative, they gathered in front of Louise.

With the noise canceling turned on, the story won’t leak out of the barracks.

However, the emperor said something he shouldn’t have said in a gathering of too many people.

Too many ears have heard the story and too many mouths.

So, the story that there is a demon king’s snitch in the allied forces.

The story that the army that appeared at the Battle of Wallon was actually an army made from the corpses of war heroes would soon spread throughout the Allies.

A secret is only temporary.

The whole world learns of the Empire’s madness and that there are many traitors to humanity.

And Louise is one of those traitors.

Louise quietly looks at the side that both should be vigilant, the side that says they should slaughter the demon king’s infiltrators in excitement, and the side that observes the situation silently.

Not everyone needs it anyway.

“What do you think, Commander?”

There are many commanders of other armies in this position, but Louise is the only one who can be called a commander here. Because they have the largest army.

Everyone looks at Louise von Schwarz.

The current Allied Forces second-in-command.

Her words must have considerable weight. Isn’t that why the emperor came to visit her?

Surprised by the sudden downpour, they gathered to seek shade.

Knowing that the giant tree named Empire, the shade that has protected them so far, is on the verge of rotting and collapsing, they gather in the shadow of the name Kernstadt, which seems to be in good health.

The devil, the emperor, the empire.

I wonder what happened to this.

They say they don’t know yet because they have to kill the traitors of mankind.

Louise closes her eyes as she sees the attention focused on her.

“Hmm… … .”

The emperor threw the dice.

“I am… … .”

that was a sign

A sign that she too must throw the dice.

“I support the Demon King.”

Should I say I poured cold water on it?

Should I say it’s frozen?

Despite this situation, Louise saw people who seemed to have turned to stone while sitting down.

It was pretty fun.

* * *

The words that people have been waiting for to come out of Louise’s mouth are the analysis or prediction of the current situation and the direction humanity should go in the future.

I was waiting for you to take that path.

Does the empire have a future?

What attitude should I take toward the demon king’s infiltrators?

Should I take action right now or not?

I was expecting a story like that.

I was hoping for some insight or prediction.

Naturally, there was no situation in their heads to say that the commander of Kernstadt supported the Demon King.

No one else had ever predicted that she would be an infiltrator.

“What the hell… … ?”

A lot of people froze and couldn’t say anything for a while, but when they finally opened their mouths, that was all they said.

“It wouldn’t be that difficult, would it? I am the devil’s snitch.”

People’s complexions were becoming earthy at the next bigger bomb declaration that popped out.

I support you. Beyond that, the introvert is me.

no one else

The commander of the military, which can be said to be second only to the Empire, confidently declared that he supported the Demon King.

There was no one here who could jump up and say that the traitor to humanity should be dragged out and hanged.

There is only one thought in everyone’s head.

since when?

Was Kernstadt, not another country, colluding with the devil?

Why didn’t anyone know about that until now?

Until now, those who had shouted that their voices should explode and that the demon king’s infiltrators should be punished would rather bite their tongues and die right here.

The complexion of those who were angry is gradually dyed with fear.

He was shouting in front of the demon king’s snitches that he had to kill them.

“You think I’m the only one who called you?”

While you guys didn’t notice, the great country of Kernstadt had already fallen into the hands of the Demon King.

Do you think it is only Kernstadt?

Can you guess how many forces have already fallen into the hands of the demon king without your knowledge?

Louise throws other thoughts into the minds of those who are confused.

What should be done if the demon king’s infiltrators are the majority?

Do I have to side with them to survive?

Louise doesn’t tell you everything.

The Knights Templar and the Main Church were on the side of the devil, and the Archduke of Saint-Ouan was on the side of the devil.

doesn’t tell me everything

There is no need for that.

“Why did I say this so you can think about it? Where does that confidence come from? Why did I decide to support the Demon King?”

If you imagine alone and grow your inner fear, you will inevitably end up with delusions that are bigger than the real thing.

Fear arbitrarily increases in size.

“Those who agree will remain.”

“Those who are not, go back.”

“But I don’t know if the door to my barracks will be open again next time.”

Just as the name of the demon king once created a notoriety greater than the power of the actual demon king.

This time the fear within them will bring them to their knees.

“Give me 10 minutes.”

only 10 minutes.

It was too short a time to decide the fate of the world.

However, the shortness of time causes anxiety, and the word that there is no next opportunity makes people fearful.

Saying there is no next opportunity is more like coercion.

When those 10 anxious minutes passed, there were no empty seats in the barracks.

Clearly someone has left.

However, there were many more unoccupied seats.

“… … .”

In the end, will it collapse in front of the absolute desire to survive even if all the anger and hatred are added?

Louise could never be satisfied with the sight before her eyes.
