I Became the Demon Grand Duke in the Academy

129 – Delinia – 3

As usual, Ella, who was patrolling alone in the territory of Euglia surrounding the World Tree, sensed something suspicious.

“… … undead? Is it a separate entity from Halloween?”

The fraud that could only be felt from the undead was felt in the middle of the forest.

It was Ella who had grown up and wandered around here all her life, so it was not too late to run to the place where the fraud was felt.

“… … found.”

Ella, who discovered the Skeleton Horse floating in the sky, took out the bow she was carrying on her back.

“According to my mother, that’s a nightmare… … ! Why are the undead riding high-ranking demons in Euglia?”

Looking closely, I saw personnel riding on Nightmare’s back. It’s difficult to see in detail due to backlighting, but at least two people were on board.

“What are the Yukelai guys doing that such undead come all the way here… … !”

When I go back, I pull the bowstring, thinking that I should say something to the snotster of the Yukelai family.

As I learned from my mother, I do not forget to use the wind spirit Sylph to erase the presence and smell.

“I have to get them down to the ground first!”

When Ella, who strengthened the arrow with the wind spirit, released her hand, the arrow flew at great speed and hit Nightmare.

At the same time, Nightmare staggered greatly. As if the attack had worked, Nightmare descended and landed.

Ella then hid and warned the intruders according to procedure. It was because they judged that they were intelligent beings by watching them talk.

However, what came out of there was a terrible creature that was hard to see as a human being.

A terrible existence that damages the mind just by looking at it. Seeing that, Ella tried to start an attack right away, but stopped attacking after discovering the existence that brought out her name.

“… … sister?”

The being who called her name was her older sister who had entered the ‘Summoners Academy’ in Sumonia last year.

Although, it wasn’t as black as when she was back in her hometown, Ella was able to determine that her older sister had dyed her hair by looking at the black part of the crown.

At first, believing that her sister had been brainwashed by that hideous monster, Ella would risk her life to save her sister.

It was because her older sister was that precious to her.

However, the more we talked, the more we realized that we were wrong.

That terrible being was actually her sister’s pet. And that, too, was a summoned beast that was hiding a very attractive figure.

My sister’s summoned beast was a demon. And, in the course of the conversation, I also learned that the demon who contracted with my sister is not an ordinary demon. The number of other summons signed with her sister.

Demon Archduke.

Demons who are said to rule the Demon Realm, beings called by another name called the Demon King.

Two such beings signed a contract with her sister.

Why did her sister, who went to the academy to become a great summoner like Lily, sign a contract with the demon dukes?

Of course, in the past, Lily also made contracts with some of the Great Devils. However, wasn’t it a contract made with a common enemy called disaster?

By the way, just by attending the summoner academy, you sign a contract with two demon dukes? Are you also friends with the other demon grand dukes?

Even the undead and necromancer who came together are friends from the same academy?

In response, Ella recalled the various eccentricities her older sister had carried out in the past.

Wasn’t it the older sister who dug a hole in the World Tree when she was young, wondering what the sap of the World Tree would taste like?

“Okay, let’s give up… … .”

When I stopped thinking about it, I felt better.

Afterwards, Ella escorted the guests who came with her sister to the mansion. The proper judgment was what I thought my mother, the head of the household, would eventually do.

And there I heard an amazing story. It was because he knew that such an insignificant looking skeleton was actually a Dark Knight ‘Demonic’ who had signed a contract with Lily-sama and risked his life to protect the children in the past.

“As expected, you can’t judge by appearance alone… … .”

Feeling fortunate to have brought guests to her mother, Ella watched as her older sister, who hadn’t seen her in a while, eagerly ate stir-fried eggplant with meat and mushrooms.

“Chi, friend? That, sure! I have a lot of friends and I signed a contract with a very strong summoner!”

huh? no wait

“If we go to the academy right now, Maru—”

“——Sister! Would you like some more meat?! Eat some of mine!”

Really, she was an older sister who couldn’t be careless.

“I didn’t know that it was Halloween time… … . Tequila. sorry.”

After the meal, we gathered in the tea room and had time to sit face to face and drink tea for the meeting.

“no. It’s not even Rosé’s fault that Halloween happened. It was strange that things went so easily in the first place.”

Tequila answered by sipping tea in a calm voice. Demonic also nodded with his jawbone rattling, as if trying to comfort the sullen Rosé.

“Getting through Halloween won’t be easy. Unlike the normal undead spawn, Halloween has a special entity that leads the undead.”

Halloween.

march of the dead.

The Halloween that occurred in the game was literally a disaster.

It was quite difficult both quantitatively and qualitatively, as not only heroic objects appeared, but there were also a lot of trash objects.

In the game, this was prevented in a defense format, but the difficulty was so terrible that the players also poured out bad reviews about the difficulty in the community.

But who am I?

Aren’t you the player who reached the top of [Summoner’s Academia]?

“There are plenty of possibilities.”

Everyone’s eyes turned to me when I put down the teacup and took out the remark.

“Is there a possibility?”

At my words, Rosé looked at me in amazement.

“Yeah, I can’t be sure of success, but… … . It is quite possible.”

“I haven’t even figured out the scale of Halloween and the special objects yet, so you can know that? No matter how much you are the grand duke of the Demon Realm, it’s not like it’s not easy to immediately judge that there’s a possibility—Ah! why do you hit sister!”

Rose slapped Ella’s thigh, who was refuting my story.

“What a great man Gregory is! Gregory-sama is not the kind of person who would say that it is possible to do something that is not possible!”

“no! Still, the other party is Halloween———Oh, no!”

“Gregory-sama is the savior of the empire who saved the empire from the invasion of the Holy Church?! First, listen to Gregory-sama and tell me!”

“yes? The savior of the empire… … ?”

As if the news hadn’t spread in Delinia yet, Ella put on an expression that she really didn’t know.

“It doesn’t seem to have spread to Delinia yet. What Rose said is true. From what I’ve heard, not only did she receive congratulations from the emperor, but I also heard that the position of the first princess, Miss Priscilla, rose significantly because of that incident.”

“yes?! Unni, are you also involved with the first princess of the empire?”

“Is Priscilla my friend?”

“You’re friends with the Great Devil and the Empire’s 1st princess, what kind of life did you live?! Be honest! I have more friends to surprise me with?!”

“Anning? Should I try, like Miss Daisy?”

“Well, if it’s Daisy, you mean that bastard from the Elena family? That bastard is friends with her sister, what the hell… … .”

No, why is the story of the sisters leaking elsewhere?

“… … Can I continue talking?”

“Oh, sorry. When my sister says she believes this much… … I will listen to the end.”

“thanks. So, let’s keep talking. Fortunately, our members have a well-divided position. A tequila specialized in multi-in combat. I am confident in both interpersonal and multiplayer battles. And Rosé and Demonic, who are specialized in interpersonal warfare. and… … .”

As I looked at Ella, her words faltered, and she trembled and opened her mouth.

“first… … It’s a big fight. I’ve never had a one-on-one fight before.”

“i get it. In any case, there is no need to worry too much about the amount of the other party. It can be said that the volume of this side is also considerable.”

Didn’t you feel it when you actually sparred with tequila? The unabated, terrible quantity was quite menacing.

“And, Halloween’s elite mobs are also subject to the sanctions of the world, so they can’t use more than 4 stars. It may be different depending on the individual, but for the moment, it is on the same level as me.”

Ella looks surprised at my story.

“All, you… … . Was it 4 stars? That, that means… … Is your sister in the 4th circle?”

“Whoa, are you finally starting to respect this older sister?”

“I haven’t been to the academy for half a year, does that make sense?”

“This is all thanks to Gregory-sama and my talent~ I mean~”

Looking at Rosé, who puts her hands on her sides and protrudes her breasts proudly, her words seemed to leak elsewhere, so she continued her conversation.

“Above all, our ultimate goal is to break through to Lily’s grave, not the annihilation of Halloween. That means you don’t have to deal with all the Halloween hordes.”

That is, what I meant to say was this.

“We break through Halloween.”

That was the best we could do.
