Volumen 08 Capítulo 77 - De Acantilado-kun a los Cortejos - Continuación

1ª Parte

Se extendió como la pólvora un aviso sobre la invasión del Rey Demonio por todos los reinos y países que rodeaban a la Universidad de Magia.

Primero fue la invasión y más tarde la invasión; aunque por lo general, la información debería de haber llegado primero, pero debido a la tremendamente alta velocidad del Rey Demonio, el tiempo en el que se recibían los informes de avistamientos y el tiempo en el que aparecía el Rey Demonio en ese país era casi simultáneos.

Todas y cada una de las naciones que escucharon este hecho, entraron en pánico, ya que aquellos seres conocidos como los Reyes Demonio nunca abandonan el continente demoniaco, principalmente porque los Reyes Demonio de las coaliciones de las facciones rebeldes habían muerto casi por completo durante la campaña de Laplace; hasta el punto de que se pensaba que el continente demoniaco había desistido en sus intentos de invadir el continente central, ya que solo seguían con vida los Reyes Demonio de las facciones moderadas y conservadoras.

No obstante, estas facciones todavía poseen suficiente poder como para controlar todo el continente demoniaco, por lo que si por cualquier motivo decidieran atacar, el resultado sería una oleada de destrucción.

Por todo esto, tras conocer sobre la invasión del Rey Demonio BadiGadi, las naciones de Ranoa, Neris, y Basheranto comenzaron a organizar a sus órdenes de caballeros y al mismo tiempo reunir aventureros; pero tardarían tiempo en llegar a la universidad de magia.

La capital de la magia, Sharia, es donde se encuentra la Universidad de magia, y en ella también se encuentra el gremio de aventureros y de magos.

Los 3 países combinados llamaron a las armas a todo caballero que residiera en esta ciudad, y estos se aglutinaron en una fuerza ofensiva insuficiente y rodearon la Universidad de Magia. Si fuera necesario, sus órdenes eran relentizar al Rey Demonio hasta que llegaran los refuerzos desde los distintos países.

Pero para ellos, el objetivo del Rey Demonio seguía siendo una incógnita, por mucho que supieran de quién se trataba por su famosa apariencia.

Piel color azabache y 6 brazos, por lo que se trataba del Rey Demonio Inmortal, BadiGadi. Se trataba de un demonio que vive desde antes de la campaña de Laplace, y es uno de los Reyes Demonio más antiguos; y si eso fuera cierto, ni el mismo Laplace fue capaz de acabar con él.

¿Por qué o con qué fin se dirigía el Rey Demonio a la Universidad de Magia?

¿Y por qué o con qué fin dejaría inconscientes a estudiantes normales de la raza feral?

Todos los países que se hicieron estas preguntas, así como la propia Universidad solo pudieron encontrar una respuesta a estas preguntas más tarde.

2ª Parte

-- Desde el punto de vista de Ludeus --

Actualmente me encuentro en la zona de entrenamientos de magia Avanzada en la universidad de magia, concretamente en medio de un espacioso patio, desarmado y preparándome para luchar contra BadiGadi.

Tengo la cabeza bien alta, con mis brazos cruzados, las piernas separadas y la boca con forma de へ; aunque en realidad, en mi interior temo enormemente por mi vida.

¿Qué esperabas? Un tipo enorme con la piel completamente negra me está clavando la mirada, no creo que nadie estuviera tranquilo en mi situación.

No voy a negar que en estos últimos meses he estado empezando a pensar que de verdad soy ligeramente poderoso siguiendo los estándares de este mundo; pero si tengo que vérmelas con un Rey Demonio, que sea ligeramente poderoso no creo que sea suficiente.

Siento como si un martillazo me fuera a poner en mi sitio por ser un clavo que sobresalía... Vamos, que si soy sincero, quiero huir por mi vida. Creo que he estado corriendo a diario para prepararme para este día. Quiero huir tanto y tan lejos como mi aguante y poder mágico den de sí.

"..."

Mirando a mi espalda, puedo ver a un gran número de espectadores rodeándonos. Estudiantes, invitados y hasta profesores; todos ellos observándome... Si fuera a escapar como el viento, me pregunto lo que pensarían de mí.

Aunque vamos, ha llegado un punto en el que realmente eso ya no importa, porque siento que he perdido la oportunidad de huir.

De entre la multitud, una sola persona viene corriendo en mi dirección con un paso bastante acelerado, se trataba de un hombre que llevaba puesto un peluquín que le sentaba bastante bien.

Vaya, parece que ya han inventado las pelucas en este mundo...

"Jinas me ha informado de todo. Siento pedirte esto, pero debes ganar todo el tiempo posible mientras organizamos nuestra fuerza de batalla."

Con estas rápidas palabras dio media vuelta y me dejó solo nuevamente.

¿Quién era el tipo ese? Siento que le he visto en alguna parte...

Pero comprendí lo que implicaban sus palabras; puede que Jinas no comprenda del todo la situación ni el cómo ni el por qué de lo que está pasando, pero por lo que ha dicho, si gano el tiempo suficiente vendrán refuerzos.

Parece que en los momentos importantes, la gente con recursos pueden hacer maravillas.

"Umu, ¿todavía no estás listo?"

"Creo que ya casi estoy."

BadiGadi aguardaba comenzar el combate con sus 6 brazos negro azabache cruzados en su pecho, ya que le había pedido a Fitts-senpai que me trajera mi báculo, Arrogancia del Rey Dragón de Agua, Aqua Heartia. Y parece que BadiGadi ha aceptado esperar hasta que me lo traiga.

Pero vamos, se está tardando... no hay tanta distancia de la biblioteca a los dormitorios y no recuerdo haberlo escondido demasiado.

Como de costumbre, simplemente lo dejé apoyado al lado de la cama con una tela recubriéndolo, no pensé que fuera a tomar tanto tiempo encontrarlo.

"Umu, este servidor siempre pensó que los humanos eran impacientes e iban siempre con prisas, pero no parece que sea tu caso; como imaginaba de alguien a quien la prometida de este servidor le ha echado el ojo."

"¿¿Prometida?? Hmm...Kirishika...sama, ¿no?"

"Umu."

Para responder a mi pregunta, simplemente dijo esa palabra y asintió con la cabeza.

La Gran Emperatriz Demoniaca Kishirika Kishirisu; es imposible que haya olvidado a la que me entregó mi ojo místico. Aunque en aquel momento nunca se me ocurrió que de fuera la verdadera, apareció de improviso y desapareció de la misma forma dejándome simplemente anonadado por lo ocurrido.

¿Pero me pregunto por qué habrá aparecido ahora su prometido? No lo creo, pero no habrá venido como los de la raza feral, para retarme a un duelo de cortejo, ¿no?

"Es cierto que me entregó este ojo místico, pero mi conversación con Kishirika-sama fue extremadamente corta."

"Kishirika me contó la buena impresión que le causaste diciendo cosas como, ¡sorprendente, increíble! Hacía tiempo que no veía a la prometida de este servidor tan encandilada en sus observaciones de alguien, hasta con la tolerancia que este servidor posee no me quedó más remedio que sentir cierta envidia."

BadiGadi dijo esto con una de sus cejas enarcadas y sonriendo de oreja a oreja.

¿Envidia? ¿Celos? No recuerdo haber hecho nada que pudiera llevar a que sintieras eso de mí... ¿acaso hice algo indebido que pudiera haberle molestado? ¿Podría ser que mi medio broma cuando le dije que me diera su cuerpo le haya sentado mal? Pero si solo fue una tentativa, pero recuerdo que me dijo que le era imposible ya que tenía un prometido... Oh, mierda... este tipo es el prometido del que hablaba entonces...

"Tan solo soy poca cosa, nada más que un lamentable ratoncillo solitario. N-No soy nadie tan importante como para el usted, Rey Demonio-sama, sienta envidia de mí. Seguro que Kishirika-sama tan solo exageraba un poco en lo que dijo de mí."

Intentando ocultar mi inquietud interna le di una increiblemente serena respuesta. A lo que el tipo se rió, como si se riera de mis palabras de una forma excesiva.

"Fuajajajaja, no seas tan modesto, he oído de ese enorme poder mágico que posees en tu interior."

¿Enorme poder mágico? Por mucho que digas eso.. hace poco es cuando he empezado a darme cuenta de lo increíblemente elevado que es comparado con el de otros. Pero lo pongas como lo pongas, no debería ser motivo suficiente para que un Rey Demonio me envidie... ¿no te parece?

Aunque... ahora que lo pienso, recuerdo que en aquel entonces dijo algo extraño. ¿Qué fue exactamente? Tan solo recuerdo que fue algo curioso.

"Hmm... pero si mi poder mágico tan solo es ligeramente superior al del resto."

"¡Fuajajaja! ¡Mira lo que dice, solo un poco!"

BadiGadi continuó riéndose durante un corto periodo de tiempo, pero de improviso detuvo su sonora risotada y se dejó caer al suelo con un sonoro golpe.

"Creo que deberías sentarte un momento."

Hice lo que me pidió y me senté con él, y he de decir que aun sentado, BadiGadi es enorme; imagino que podría considerársele una mole de carne musculosa.

Me encantaría tener músculos así.

"Da la impresión de que no comprendes el significado de que la Gran Emperatriz Demoniaca Kishirika Kishirisu diga que eres sorprendente."

"...Por mucho que me lo digas..."

"He visto a un tipo por ahí que posee un increíble poder mágico, tiene hasta más que Laplace. Eso es lo que ella me dijo de ti y es la primera vez en su vida que dijo esto."

Laplace... era el Dios Demonio, ¿no? Pues por mucho que me digas que tengo mayor poder mágico que el Dios Demonio no me dice demasiado realmente. No voy a negar que casi nunca me he llegado a quedar sin magia, pero no es que posea mayor habilidad física por ello.

"La cantidad de maná que poseía el Dios Demonio Laplace era considerada la mayor de la historia. En otras palabras, posees la mayor cantidad de maná de la historia de este mundo, es algo digno de jactarte de ello."

"Debes estar de broma."

Al escuchar sus palabras, he de decir que mi corazón se aceleró un poco, porque después de todo, el que me dice esto es un Rey Demonio, por lo que sus palabras poseen cierto peso. Se siente similar a cuando un jugador profesional va y te dice Tienes talento para esto.

"Este servidor no puede atestar la veracidad de estas palabras, ya que Kishirika suele dejarse llevar según el momento. Y existe la posibilidad de que mi prometida se haya equivocado en su observación."

Mientras decía esto, BadiGadi sonrió forzadamente, lo que me hace preguntarme si habrá pasado antes.

Conociendo a Kishirika-sama... no me cuesta imaginar que haya ocurrido antes.

"No puedo negar que hace unos años realicé un entrenamiento con el fin de incrementar mi maná, pero decir que poseo de los mayores del mundo creo que es algo excesivo. Cualquiera que hiciera el mismo entrenamiento que yo debería ser capaz de alcanzar una cantidad similar."

"Umu, pero por lo general, eso sería imposible."

Normally it would never happen.

Then, I wonder if it's something that's possible if they reincarnate from another world like me.

Or else, did I receive some kind of cheat from the Human God [Hitogami] when I wasn't paying attention.

I'll try asking.

"Come to think of it, Demon King-sama, there's one thing I'd like to try asking you."

"What is it, feel free to ask anything."

"That is, the person who I'm about to speak of is absolutely not someone I'm the subordinate or follower or that kind of thing, therefore, I'd like for you not to suddenly attack me."

"Didn't you say to wait, Demon Kings don't break promises."

An Indian doesn't lie.

That better be the truth.

Don't attack me. Absolutely don't attack me.

"Have you ever heard of the name Hitogami?"

"....You, where did you hear of that name?"

"He comes out in my dreams."

Badigadi unfolded the top pair of arms and stroked his chin.

I wonder if he knows something.

"Humu, I see.. In a dream huh."

"Do you know anything?"

After asking that Badigadi gave it some thought for a short while.

But, he nodded with a "Humu." and shook his head.

"I see now. No clue! I have the feeling I've heard it somewhere before, but I can't remember! At the very least, it's a name I haven't heard about it in these past several hundred years!"

"I see, thank you very much."

Speaking of several hundred years, how very vague.

"Humu, if I remember I'll inform you! Fuhahahaha!"

"Please do."

"What a boring guy you are, you should laugh as well. Fuhahahahaaha!"

Badigadi is a person who laughs so enjoyably.

Since just now, even though nothing particularly interesting has been said, the laughs just haven't stopped.

Suddenly, I remembered the time when I met Ruijerd.

That time as well, through laughing with him we deepened our friendship.

Laughing could be considered a common language in this world.

The other side has come to talk while laughing.

It would be rude to not return the smile.

Alright, I'll laugh.

"Fu..hahahahahaha!"

"That's good, that's good, Kishirika said it as well. No matter the time you should just laugh! I remember, the last time Kishirika died as well and was laughing in a loud voice, fuhahahaahah!"

Badigadi said that and laughed.

His appearance is frightening, but it seems that this man isn't all that bad of a fellow.

"Hn?"

Around the time when I was laughing with Badigadi it seems like the onlookers from behind have suddenly gotten noisy.

After turning around to take a look it seems like someone is rustling around.

After clearing my ears to hear, I was able to catch some of the conversation.

"Let go! If I don't deliver the staff!"

"Stop it! After you deliver that staff the duel will start!"

"What are you going to do if the duel starts without the staff? Will you leave him to die!?"

"Tha..that is."

"Leave this to myself!"

"Ah...Zanoba-kun!"

"Zanoba Shirone is it! Hey, let go, let me go... owwowowowo!"

Fitts-senpai came flying over the onlookers.

And then with an amazing speed he came running here.

Those are some unreasonably fast legs.

Probably, three times faster than me.

But, he isn't red and doesn't have horns or anything?

"Ha..ha..Sorry, Rude...Rudeus-kun. The teachers got in my way."

Fitts-senpai was breathing roughly while carrying the staff.

"Se..senpai your legs are fast aren't they."

"Eh?? Ha..shoes, are a magic item bestowed with magic power after all.."

After hearing that I look at the boots senpai always wears.

Is that so, they were a magic item bestowed with magic power was it.

It could be that the mantle he's always wearing is a magic item as well.

This person, he never takes off the mantle even when it seems hot out after all.

"Could it be those sunglasses as well?"

"Ha..ha...these as well..yea..no... that is, a secret so.."

Fitts-senpai laughed with a bit of an Eh~

I wonder why this person's laughing face is this cute.

I'm feeling my heart pound.

"Fu...Yes, Rudeus-kun, give it your best.. but don't overdo it. If you don't think you can win, even if you say sorry and run away, it's an opponent where no one will say anything. Don't worry about some kind of strange pride, at least your life, right?"

I received the Aqua HartiaArrogant Water Dragon King from Fitts-senpai.

It's been quite a while since I last seriously fought while holding this guy.

Let's give it our best, partner Charlene.

As a present for the other world I'll tell you.

That after we return we'll get married and have some Pineapple Salad.

I removed the cloth wrapping my Aqua HartiaArrogant Water Dragon King.

I understood that Fitts-senpai held his breath.

Some feelings of playing a bit of a prank sprouted.

"..Fitts-senpai, look at the magic stone at the end of this, what do you think of this?"

"Am..amazing, big??"

"!"

Somehow, just now a bit, I felt a bit of a shock around the back of my hips.

I wonder what that was.

No, let's stop with the jokes here.

Badigadi was standing up and rotating his shoulders.

I wonder if I've managed to stall for some time.

Wouldn't it be impossible to hold him off with conversation until the military force gathers?

Fitts-senpai reluctantly returned.

It would have been fine for you to stay here and back me up though.

Rather, how about saving me...

"Are you ready?"

"If possible I would prefer to just keep talking while laughing like this."

"Fuhahahahaha! We can do that again later!"

Does that mean he doesn't intend to take my life?

No, he's a person with a kind of vague feeling to him.

He might think I'll be fine since my aggregate magic power is large and just happen to kill me like that.

It might have been better to get a few more words in just now.

That I'd like to go with an exchange that spares my life.

Badigadi stood loosely with his hands at his hips.

It seems he doesn't intend to commence attack.

I wonder if he's waiting for some kind of signal.

For the time being I'll open my foresight eye.

"..Huh?"

I couldn't see anything with my foresight.

In the place where Badigadi was standing, nothing was standing there.

"What are you making a surprised face about...? Oh, I see. You immediately started using the Demon Eye you got from Kishirika. However, that's unfortunate. Demon eyes don't work on me."

He carelessly said it and Badigadi snorted with a Hmphm.

Seriously.

Demon eyes don't work huh.

As expected of a Demon King.

However, if this is the case then it's bad.

The probability that I won't be able to barely avoid a fatal wound is increasing.

My physical ability isn't all that high.

The chance that I might get hit in a bad place increased.

"Demon King-sama."

"Badi is fine. I asked you to laugh and those who honestly laugh are permitted to call me by that name."

"Badi-sama. I'd like to make one suggestion."

"What is it?"

"Even if I were to lose, somehow please at least leave me my life."

After saying that, Badigadi broke out into laughter.

"Fuhahahahaha! Pleading for one's life before you even start! What an interesting guy!"

"Life is meant to be treated preciously."

"Humu, that is true. The human race quickly dies after all! I hear there are many who think as such!"

Badigadi continued to laugh.

"However, even while you possess such a tremendous amount of magic power, it seems you don't have any confidence in your power!"

"Since two years prior a person named something like the Dragon God just had me on the verge of death after all."

After saying that, Badigadi's laughing voice instantly stopped.

"By Dragon God, you mean Dragon God Orsted? After fighting that guy, you survived?"

"I was on the verge of death. If he hadn't left me alive on some sort of whim, I would be a ghost right now."

Badigadi's face became serious.

This is bad.

Since Hitogami's name was alright I felt a bit relieved.

It seems Orsted's name was no good either.

"Did you manage to leave even a bit of wound on that Dragon God during the fight?"

"Eh? Yeah, though it was just to the degree of some skin peeling off on the back of the hand."

"...."

Badigadi completely sealed his mouth.

A scary face.

Le..let's laugh.

"Then, I'll make one suggestion from my side."

"Wh...what is it?"

I made a serious face while asking Badigadi.

"Just a single hit."

"...?"

"Fire off one shot of your ultimate technique at me. That's right, it's fine to use what you used to wound the Dragon God. I will receive that and if you manage to do any damage through my Fighting Spirit it's your win. If there's no damage then it will be my victory, how does that sound?"

Yeah.

It's a suggestion just as I'd wish for it to be.

Splendid.

They're considerably favorable terms.

Moreover, we can end it without me being hit.

I wonder if it's fine.

"But, I wonder if in that case, wouldn't I have too much of an advantage?"

"Advantage? Advantage you say? Humu, that is true isn't it! Then, if in the case your attack does almost nothing, I'll perform a counterattack. Just one attack that is!"

I have the feeling I dug my own grave.

But, I mean what if that single attack goes through my heart?

Let's stop already, I don't want to dig my grave any further than this.

I don't want anymore holes opened up in my chest.

"I understand. Well then, let's go with that."

"Humu."

While saying that I prepared my staff.

I packed as much magic power as I possibly could into my staff.

What I'm producing is a Rock Bullet.

However, I'll make it even harder than the one I used on Orsted.

That time I was barehanded, one handed, and created it in an instant.

This time there's the staff as well.

The power should be several times greater.

Formation.

Refine the magic power, harder, even harder.

The foundation is the same as when creating a figure.

Just, without thinking about its pliability, just make it harder.

Sharpening as much as possible in a spindle shape.

With notches almost like a drill attached.

And then apply a rotation to that.

A high speed rotation as fast as possible.

Nothing but spinning.

Even I don't know exactly how many times it's rotating per second.

All that's left is the firing speed.

Magic power should be worked into here as well.

Set it forth at the fastest speed possible.

There's never been a time where I focused this much magic power into a Rock Bullet.

It takes some time to pack the magic power into it, I'm sure it could almost never be used in actual combat.

Even if I were to use it, it would just be overkill on most monsters.

However, if it's a Demon King, then they might be able to endure it.

I'd like to at least leave some damage.

I don't want to be hit.

"Then, here I come."

"Humu! Come!"

Fire!

I heard a whistling sound.

There was no recoil.

I don't know why but no reactions exist from magic.

However, as natural as it is, an impact occurs.

The Rock Bullet made a loud bang sound as it crashed into the standing Badigadi, his upper body was shattered into very small pieces that went flying, his six arms were disassembled and scattered, even just his lower body was sent flying backwards several tens of meters and then fell over.

Part 2

"....Eh?"

He's not moving an inch.

I timidly, slowly walked towards where the lower half of his body went.

And then my eyes fell onto his lower body with it's internal organs flooding out.

There was no blood flowing out.

I wonder if it's because he's a Demon King.

I thought he was a guy without tears who could only laugh.

Could it be that he was a guy with neither blood nor tears.

"....Eh?"

No, it can't be.

Eh?

It's a lie right???

He died?

I didn't understand very well what was going on.

After taking a look behind me, it was silent and still as death.

Everyone was looking over here.

The gazes hurt.

No one was moving, not even a quiver.

Swallowing their saliva.

A loud gulp sound came from my throat.

Di...did I kill him???

No, I mean, it's a lie right.

I mean, No, why.

Even though he was that full of confidence.

Eh?

I mean, he's the Immortal Demon King right.

Eh?

He was full of confidence and said to come at him with just one hit.

Eh, Eh?

Slowly and timidly, I turned around once more.

I was going to confirm what I was guilty of.

"Fuhahahaha! My great resurrection!"

I was close to firing off another Rock Bullet.

There, a half-sized Badigadi was standing.

He was about the same height as me, but the large size of his face hadn't changed.

Therefore I was getting an unbalanced impression.

Putting aside the matter of his size.

"Ah, you survived."

I felt relieved.

I thought I had become a murderer for a bit there.

That's great, that the opponent wasn't a human.

"Fuhahahahaha, I thought I was going to die! But, humu, I see now, I get it well. Choosing not to fight was the correct answer! If we had fought seriously, all around here would have become a wasteland after all!"

Badigadi was laughing with a Fuhahahaha.

On his side, his six arms were crawling up and combining with Badigadi.

Badigadi's height continued to bulge larger.

But, he didn't return to his previous size.

"Oh, it flew considerably far didn't it!? It seems that it will take a bit of time in order to return to normal!"

It seemed that Badigadi was a bit excited.

"It's your victory, Rudeus! It's fine for you to call yourself Hero!"

"No, I'd rather refrain from that."

"Then at least let out a cry of victory! Fuhahahaha!"

While saying that Badigadi took my right hand.

He grabbed the hand holding my staff and raises it upward.

Almost like a Boxing Champion.

I wonder if it was the decision for a win.

It was a conclusion that I don't really understand.

"Ka??"

However, if he says that it's my win, then it's probably a win.

"I won....nnn!"

The onlookers were all still stuck in the dead of silence.

I don't really get it but they were all dead silent.

Shortly after confirming that, Badigadi nodded to himself.

"They're really a lot that doesn't go with the flow. Well then, I'll have you let me get one hit in."

Is what he said.

"Eh!!?"

That's different from our promise!

Just as I was thinking that, his fist caught my face.

With just one hit.

Just, when it came to him, he counts three fists as one hit.

In the situation where my arm was being held onto I couldn't even defend.

I was knocked unconscious with three hits.

This damn lying Demon King...

Part 3

After that, it seems Badigadi was taken away somewhere by the middle aged man with the hair accessory from just before, a middle aged ikemen type man in armor, and an old man in a robe.

I guess they're having some kind of talk among important people.

I resurrected from my unconsciousness after Fitts-senpai used healing magic.

After that, I was brought to and warmly welcomed into a staff room by Jinas.

After receiving some tea and cakes I took a single breath.

Jinas didn't talk about it very much.

It seems, that he couldn't really understand the situation all that well either.

A Demon King suddenly came in and knocked out the conscious of some students and outsiders.

Then he challenged me to a duel and after declaring me the winner he hit me and knocked me unconscious.

It's not like you can understand the situation just by knowing that much.

Also, it seems that there were no deaths among the students that were knocked out by the Demon King.

In the first place Badigadi is part of the Moderate Faction, so that means he won't especially go out of his way to kill people.

In regards to his objective, it seems the important people are investigating it from here on.

It seems that the accessory middle aged man was this school's Principal.

What was his name again? That's right, the Wind King class magician Georg.

I did see him during the time of the entrance ceremony.

The ones taking part in the talks seem to be the leader of the three countries' knight group came to protect this town.

Also, the leader of the Magic Guild.

The four were gathered together and currently talking about various things.

"However, as expected of Rudeus-san. To finish off the Demon King with a single pre-emptive attack! And then to be recognized by the Demon King??! The Principal said that even though you were "The Quagmire" as just a lone adventurer stalling for time would be the best you can do. However, we never could have imagined it would turn out like this! After reaching this age I can't remember ever having gotten so excited over such a scene before!"

Jinas couldn't hide his excitement and was saying something like that.

It seems, they don't know about the contents of what we talked about prior to the duel.

That Badigadi intentionally took on the magic for example or that even if it had been ineffective it would have ended with that.

A short while after being looked at with eyes of respect by Jinas I was released.

For the time being, I was told to be on standby in the dorm until various things are decided.

Part 4

After I left the staff room, Zanoba came running up to me.

"Oh~, Shisho, I was watching. As expected isn't it. No, I guess I should say it's only natural."

Zanoba was praising me like that but I shook my head.

"He just lent me his chest and I took it."

Certainly the attack was effective, but the opponent didn't evade or defend.

And then from there, there’s that regeneration ability.

If we were to fight seriously, I can't imagine that it would just pass with my win.

"You're being modest. Isn't just landing a hit on a Demon King an amazing thing?"

Zanoba said that while laughing.

Julie looked at me with eyes of even greater fear.

I'm sure even from a distance it looked like a splatter.

I've shown her something frightening.

Part 5

On my way back to the dorm I ran into a considerably glowing Elinalise and Cliff.

"Oh my Rudeus, what was the disturbance about?"

"Umm, what were you guys doing?"

"Exactly what you think we were doing."

Elinalise was laughing with a "hohoho", and Cliff went bright red and got angry with a, "Don't say anything unnecessary!"

It seems that the two were opening an adult meeting while the Demon King was invading.

They sure are happy.

"Just now, Badigadi-sama challenged me to a duel and I somehow managed to win."

"Eh!! That guy has already come here!?"

....Already?

What the heck do you mean by already?

"Did you know? That he would come?"

"Yes, but he was being restrained by the Ogres, it seemed he wanted to stay there for a little while so I went on ahead myself. Look, those sorts, they're pretty loose with time right? Which is why I thought he wouldn’t move for another 10 years or so? In reality, the time when we separated was two years ago after all.."

If you've lived for denominations in the thousands of years, I guess your sense of time would deviate.

In my previous life, even though I passed thirty years, time felt like it passed quite quickly.

The denomination is just a bit large.

"But, he was a good guy right?"

"He didn't seem like a bad person."

Among the nobles and royalty that I've met he was a top class good person.

He laughs well after all.

He did break his promise, but if you think of the difference between one hit and one strike then that is fine as it is.

"Hey, what are you talking about?"

"Oh my oh my, Cliff you, are you jealous? It's alright, right now, the only one whom my heart can love is just you."

"No, not that, ah, don't stick so close, Rudeus is watching isn't he?"

"I'm showing him."

Since they had started flirting, I dispersed from that location.

From behind I heard a loud voice yelling, "There's no way a Demon King would come to a place like this right?"

I thought the same until just a short while ago.

Part 6

Fitts-senpai was waiting at the entrance to the dorm.

After seeing my face he made an indescribable face.

After all, I wonder if he is excited as well.

His cheeks were red and he was tightly holding his hands.

A feeling sort of like he saw something amazing, but the impression isn't coming out.

"Rudeus-kun is am..amazingly strong isn't he!"

An average impression.

That sort of word floated into mind.

"I couldn't have imagined you would do it in a single hit!"

"A single hit, since we had decided on such rules for victory and defeat, I used the strongest magic I could in terms of power."

"The strongest?... Huh, isn't that the same thing you used during the time of the examination against me right, that amazing one right?"

"Yeah, it's a Rock Bullet. Although I had 'accumulated' a considerable amount into it."

"Even though it's just intermediate magic, if you master it it'll have that much power!?"

Fitts-senpai raised his voice in admiration with a "Oh~" and started making a Rock Bullet that has a rotation and fired it.

A whistling sound let out and it pierced into the ground far away.

He's quite good to reproduce something he's only seen once or twice.

However, it didn't have as much power as mine.

"I don’t really have the intention to master it though."

"Are you normally using nothing but earth magic?"

"I guess so, at one period it was nothing but water, but at some point it became nothing but earth."

"After all! Since we're using the same system of magic, that should mean I can get better at it right."

I wonder if that's the case.

No, I have the feeling I did gradually get better at making the figures.

"..I, guess so. I wonder if you call it precision getting higher."

"However, the consumed magic power will increase as well right!"

"That's right. During the times when I'm making dolls it's considerably difficult."

Fitts-senpai seemed very happy.

Come to think of it, I haven't had very many opportunities to talk about chantless incantations with Fitts-senpai.

"Also, sorry, I'm sure you're tired. I'm sorry for holding you back. Today you should rest at ease."

"Ah, yes."

After saying that Fitts-senpai ran towards the school building.

I wanted to talk for a bit longer, but well it's fine.

It's immediately after that incident after all.

I'm sure he's busy with the student council as well.

I returned to my own room.

I lean my staff against the wall.

Things about the Demon King and what not, today was difficult.

My mental and physical fatigues are both building up, so I lay down on the bed.

I'm somehow tired...

Part 7

After that sort of thing happened, a month has passed by in a flash.

The Magic Triumvirate talked with Badigadi and it seems they decided to treat him as a state guest.

In response, to apologize for the trouble he caused, Badigadi decided to lend an arm to the Magic Guild for researching immortality.

Furthermore he ended up participating as a temporary martial arts adviser for the combined knight group.

And then...

Part 8

Next homeroom.

The two senpai came out from the dorm.

Since Badigadi put order to all of the Beast Races, it seems they became able to come to class.

"As expected of boss nya, thank you nya. I'll treat you to something next time nya."

"But, I couldn't have possibly imagined that a Demon King would come nano. We're such devilish women nano. You did well in protecting us. In return you're free to grope the chest, of Rinia that is."

"Thank you very much."

Since I received the privilege of groping the chest, without reservation I'll grope them.

Rinia's that is.

"Ginya!"

She scratched my face.

Even though she said it was fine.

Even though she said she would treat me.

That's cruel nya.

It's stingy.

If it's a lady then all of them have them, isn't just a bit fine?

"Shisho is considerably open to women but, however, I've heard one uncertain story."

"Hey, stop Zanoba, you're not allowed to say anymore than that! Look, that matter!"

"..Oh, that's right isn't it, please excuse me."

Recently, Cliff's seat has become quite close.

It seems he hears stories about me from Elinalise sometimes.

I don't know what they're talking about, but it seems they are reasonably good rumors.

Somehow, it seems to be talk about sympathy, it may be or may not.

It seems that the reason why I ended up being rejected by Eris has become because of the illness.

Well, it's fine though.

The things about Eris are already fine, I'm over them??!

This past month, Cliff and Elinalise's public flirting gradually decreased.

Even though I say that, it seems they haven't separated yet.

Once in every two or three days Cliff comes in tired.

I'm sure he's being squeezed out.

If she's not allowed to flirt in public, I wonder if they properly talked together.

Rather, I wonder if that isn't a hindrance to their studies.

Well, I'll leave things of the two to themselves.

It's not really a problem that I have any say on.

I'm a bit jealous.

"...Grand master, I don't have enough magic power to make this hard part, please make it."

Julie is continuing to make dolls everyday with diligence.

Recently we've been teaching her workmanship at the same time.

Although, since that side isn't our main expertise, Zanoba got a dwarf in his year to help out.

We weren't told anything but an outline of information in regards to Demon King Badigadi.

Badigadi said he came this far because he was jealous of me.

In other words, that would mean I have some level of responsibility remaining for the problem I wonder.

No, I want to think that Jinas somehow cleared up things like that.

He's the one who scouted me after all.

And then at that time, the door suddenly opened.

Excluding Silent, all of the Special Students were in attendance.

It's still too early for the teacher to come.

It can't be, Silent is showing their face in home room?

And the instant I thought that.

"Fuhahahahaha!"

The loud laughter was resounding through the classroom.

And then he came into the classroom.

Magnificently, without a care about what others think.

And then he stopped on the platform and looked over us.

"The Immortal Demon King Badigadi has arrived!"

That's a lie right.

He's wearing a uniform!? This guy.

---

And then he entered the Magic University as an advertisement.

Without specifically planning to learn or research anything, but it seems occasionally observing and offering some tips or concerns.

Although, if it weren't for the tips, it seems that the Demon King's wisdom wouldn't be granted...

In any case, just like this, the Demon King invasion incident of the Ranoa Kingdom ended.
