How To Survive at the Demon Academy

Chapter 53

My name is Rain Firehead.

He is the blacksmith of the Firehead clan, one of the dwarven tribes of Arkenia.

I still have a lot to learn, and I haven’t been able to wear the title of artisan due to my lack of experience.

Among my peers, there was no dwarf better than me.

Boring training and work repeated every day.

It was hard, but it was fun.

Because I had the goal of quickly becoming a craftsman and creating various masterpieces bearing my name.

But one day my life took an unexpected turn.

A mysterious magic circle encountered in a cave to find minerals to use as materials.

I was caught up in the magic circle and fell into another dimension.

The destination is the Demon World Academy.

devildom?

What fell into that terrible world that was only heard in rumors can be passed over.

No, to be honest, it’s hard to get over it, but since dwarves are a race of adaptability, I thought I’d be able to endure it.

But here I met a being who said he would make me his attendant.

It was clearly seen as a noble demon of the demon realm.

And my prediction was right.

The problem is, his identity beyond my imagination.

Diablo?

He is the son of the Great Demon King, whose name is widely known even in Arkenia.

what do i do

* * *

“Huh!”

Lane raised her body with a shriek.

The cold sweat on his forehead looked like he had a nightmare.

“Whoa… Whoa… .”

Rain takes a deep breath and looks around.

“Is it a dream?”

okay.

The dream is clear.

It wasn’t enough that he had fallen into the Demon Realm and was caught by the son of the Great Demon King.

No matter how you think about it, it makes no sense.

“Hahaha, it was a dream after all.”

“Are you awake?”

“Aww!”

Lane frightened and runs out.

I furrowed my brow at the sight.

“Are you trying to faint again? You can forcefully wake him this time.”

“Huh, no. I am fine.”

“You took a fairly confident posture earlier, but you’ve become a coward.”

“Well, that’s natural, isn’t it? He said he was Diablo-sama’s son.”

“right.”

Seeing Lane tremble slightly, he was genuinely afraid.

I tilted my head looking at it.

‘Am I afraid of my father that much?’

It would be understandable if Rain was a demonic being.

The names of the Great Demon Kings have spread widely in the demon realm, and the achievements and power they have achieved will come directly to your skin.

But Rain is from another dimension.

He would have never encountered Diablo in person, and at best he would have only heard about it through storytelling.

But what kind of reaction is that?

“It seems that your father’s name is well known in your world.”

“Of course not. The demonic beings have invaded Arkenia only a few times, but each time they caused great chaos. And among them, Diablo’s invasion was the battle that suffered the most damage.”

“okay?”

“Of course, Diablo, unlike other great kings, did not indiscriminately slaughter. He only hoped to fight against the strong, and his subordinates were similar. However, it was also an invasion in which the strongest people of Arkenia were sacrificed the most.”

“Hmm.”

It just didn’t sound like something I wanted to hear.

In fact, even from the information I came across through Sebastian and his diary, Diablo, my father, was a very upright image, unlike his name as the Lord of Terror.

‘It doesn’t seem to suit the status of being the Great Demon King.’

In any case, it was clear that Lane was so fearful that she fainted just hearing her name.

If that were the case, I wouldn’t have to think about a situation where they disobeyed me or stabbed me in the back.

‘It’s not like that in the first place.’

From the perspective of Lane, who has fallen into another world with no connections, I am a rope.

It’s not an ordinary rope, it’s a golden rope.

It was like committing suicide to think about something else when it was not enough even if you could see well and stick to it until the end.

-Is your little friend awake?

Xeon, who was eating a snack in the corner, flew in.

“What? who is the kid yes?”

Rain, who was angry at Xeon, tilted his head.

And he looked carefully at Xeon.

“uh… Could it be a spirit?”

-right. Xeon is a spirit.

“Um, spirits can live in the Demon Realm?”

Lane’s eyes shake violently.

It’s less than when I heard my true identity, but it’s an expression of formidable surprise.

“Zeon is a demon. It is a special spirit born in the demon realm.”

-Zeon is special!

“Yeah, it could be. Well, I’m not in a position to say anything because I don’t know anything about the Demon Realm.”

-Let’s play with my little friend.

“Who is the kid? Aren’t you smaller?”

-right. Xeon is a kid. and you two little

“Okay.”

Seeing the level of arguing with Xeon, I feel like we would get along well.

“First of all, you should stay here for a while.”

“You mean here?”

“okay. It’s a large room to be alone anyway. Don’t you have a place to stay too?”

In the first place, there was no place for Lane, who could be called an illegal alien, to stay.

“thank you.”

“And being a non-student wandering around the Demonic can get you into trouble. So from now on, reveal that you are my servant. Then you won’t be in trouble for a while. Of course, wear a robe. The existence of dwarves can attract attention wherever they go.”

If the fact that he was a dwarf that could not be seen in the Pandemonium was discovered, it would be annoying in many ways, so it was good to hide it.

“All right.”

“Then go in and rest.”

– Little friend. Come play with me.

“I am Lane.”

Lane headed for the small room attached to the inn, followed closely by Xeon.

“The dorm will be a little noisy from now on.”

It was the day that a new family member increased in the room where I was alone.

* * *

A demonic who doesn’t care about social status.

That is not to say that there is no discrimination.

Because there was definitely discrimination based on the difference in skill and strength.

Of course, that discrimination was a discrimination that had no nutritional value, such as the qualification to challenge a stronger opponent or the inability to fight a weaker opponent.

And thanks to that discrimination, I couldn’t fight with the students.

The people I could deal with were limited to professors, and I had no choice but to fight with professors every day.

Same goes for today.

Wow.

Destroying the flames and ice spears flying from the left and right, I ran quickly with the recoil.

The distance narrows in an instant.

At first glance, the surroundings of Cedric, who seemed defenseless.

However.

shit.

The moment I saw the smile on his lips, I had to step back.

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam.

Black lightning strikes in front at the same time.

If it had just rushed in, it might have taken quite a bit of damage.

“Isn’t that too much?”

“It is natural to conduct sparring as if it were a real battle. Don’t you know that well?”

wooow.

Sweetheart.

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam.

At Cedric’s beckoning, various magics flew from all directions.

The damage is gradually accumulating in the continuous attacks that are difficult to wake up.

‘It’s still hard to win.’

Right now, my stats are higher than Cedric’s in all stats except for Magi.

Strength is 200, Agility is 90, Durability is about 50.

However, the Magi’s gap was about 500, and that gap was creating such a one-sided battle.

Of course that’s for sure.

‘The difference is getting smaller.’

The growth rate that surprised even oneself.

Not only my simple abilities, but my experience as a hunter and various skills were making me stronger.

But it wasn’t enough to beat Cedric yet.

Kwaaang.

Although the attack was deflected with a powerful blow.

grip support.

Before I knew it, more magic was baring its teeth at me.

“Huh, thank you for today.”

“Good work.”

When I declared surrender, Cedric regained his strength, and the magic that had filled the sky disappeared.

“But it is amazing.”

“What do you mean?”

“Your growth is not usually fast. No matter how much Diablo-sama’s lineage, it’s a period of rapid growth. Compared to when we first met, it’s an amazing growth.”

“I just worked hard.”

“It’s amazing. It’s hard to do without getting a huge chance.”

hot.

It’s not like he knew about it, but Cedric’s words were correct.

Because I was the only one with a status window in this Demon Realm.

In addition, there was a time when Cedric absorbed the magic of the Chaos Stone intact.

Even if I think about it, it was right that great luck came one after another in a short period of time.

“If we continue like this, we might catch up in half a year.”

“I’ll try my best.”

“haha. It’s scary. I hope that confidence continues.”

Cedric’s jaw started crackling.

That’s one of the things he does when he’s in a good mood.

“Is something good going on?”

“Well? Do you see that?”

“That’s right.”

“Nothing. Because your seniors, who went out sooner or later, are going to come back.”

“Seniors?”

“okay. All the personnel who emptied the Demonic as a group will return.”

Come to think of it, only freshmen were staying at this academy.

The reason why I only challenge professors is because there were no seniors.

However, I was a little excited for the seniors to return.

‘There must be many strong guys, right?’

They are beings who have rolled for a year or even several more years in the demonic where endless battles take place.

You would have to be strong to survive and hold on, and you will definitely be strong.

If there are many strong opponents, it is rather good from my point of view.

“What did the seniors go out for?”

“Each of them have different missions and goals, but they all have one thing in common: to become stronger.”

“To be strong?”

“okay. The purpose was to go around various areas of the Demon Realm to experience actual combat and practice.”

Cedric’s words stuck out my tongue.

‘As expected, this demonic is not normal.’

The academy is basically an institution that nurtures talented people.

It is common to allow students who are not yet ripe to develop their skills through various education and training.

However, this demonic rarely has such a process.

Because it was a place where only fighting was meant to die.

But that’s not enough, so let’s go outside and experience the real battle?

I don’t know if it’s a student right before graduation.

At that point, it’s to the point where the student tee is out of the way.

However, after listening to the words, it seems that everyone except for the freshmen has been sent outside.

To this wild world of demons.

‘It’s an environment where I have no choice but to become stronger.’

A minimum level of safety is guaranteed in the Demonic.

There are rules, and you have to live within those rules.

But outside it is different.

I, too, have only been outside on a handful of occasions, but I know that Demonic is completely different from inside and outside.

“It will be fun.”

I raised the corner of my mouth in anticipation of the changes that would happen in the future.

* * *

Time passed and a week passed.

A raucous and loud demonic as usual.

But today was a bit different.

“Hmm.”

I slowly looked around.

Students fighting everywhere.

Students talking to each other.

Students indulging in alone time.

Everyone was different, but had something in common.

right atmosphere.

‘It’s strangely submerged.’

And the cause was roughly predictable.

“Kyler. Did you hear the news?”

Jetty flapped its wings and climbed overhead.

“What news?”

“The seniors say they’re all coming back today.”

“Was that today?”

“yes? Did you know?”

“I heard it by accident.”

It was also as I expected.

It seems that everyone is nervous about the news that the seniors are coming back.

Up until now, I had been playing around to my heart’s content in the academy, which was only freshmen, but I couldn’t help but feel that it would be different from before when the seniors returned.

There may be people who have expectations like me, but that is only a minority, and most of them have no choice but to worry and tense.

Jetty seemed to be the same.

“Is anything going to happen?”

“do not worry. I’ll just have to live like I’ve been doing until now.”

“If Kyler is like that, then Jetty is too.”

Can’t you come back and what’s going to happen right away?

I don’t think seniors would make an accident without thinking like that.

That moment.

aaang!

The door flew away with a loud explosion.

Through the door, someone huge entered.

“Brothers. nice to meet.”
