The Misfit of Demon King Academy

Well, after all that, it’s no wonder they can’t forget their fear. It’s not going to happen any time soon, but it could be a trigger for humans to start hating the mazoku again.

“At the ceremony of the second coming of the demon king, it would be good if you could mention Avos Dillheavia and play a part in the friendship with Azeshion.” (Melheys)

“So I cooperated with Kanon and destroyed the false demon king of tyranny Avos Dillheavia?” (Arnos)

“Indeed. Plus in its own way, it is also the truth.” (Melheys)

“In that case wouldn’t it be better to have Kanon attend the second coming of the demon king ceremony as well?” (Arnos)

I watch Ray while I’m talking.

“I don’t want to stand out that much.” (Ray)

“Wear armour?” (Misha)

“That might be okay. We can use armour and a helmet to obscure my face. As long as I have Evans Mana they’ll understand I’m the hero Kanon.” (Ray)

“Then I’ll steer it in that direction. That’s it. That’s the gist of what’s going on. Is there anything else someone would like to add?” (Melheys)

“No, that’s it for today. Let’s proceed with the main issue.” (Arnos)

“Is this about the fire death king Eldomade?” (Melheys)

“Yeah. His body and origin have been taken over by Nousgalia but I’m not sure when this happened.” (Arnos)

Everyone falls silent and after a few moments, Melheys starts to speak.

“It was only several days ago that Eldomade did this and came to the academy. He said he wanted to become a teacher and even took the exam and interview and passed.” (Melheys)

“Did you meet him?” (Arnos)

“Yes. Because he knew Arnos-sama I met him directly and had a chat but he didn’t say much. All he really said was that he wanted to train the next generation in this new age.” (Melheys)

I did tell Melheys to be courteous to any mazoku from 2000 years ago who appeared and asked for me or enquired about me, however, it doesn’t seem that it was out of friendship that they waited until now.

“Have all the teachers seen the signed <Zekt> proving that Arnos is the demon king of tyranny?” (Sasha)

“All the trustworthy teachers have been told and I signed it in front of them. Because Eldomade already knew Arnos-sama I gave him a copy.” (Melheys)

There’s nothing wrong with proving I’m the demon king of tyranny now.

“When you met Eldomade had his body already been taken over by Nousgalia?” (Arnos)

“….I’m sorry but unfortunately I couldn’t tell……” (Melheys)

Oh well. Never mind it can’t be helped.

“I tried to tell Arnos-sama through <Liikus> even though it might be monitored but I couldn’t find you or your magic power.” (Melheys)

“Aah sorry. I was absorbed in rebuilding the underground dungeon. I haven’t even told Elio yet. I had to create it in secret because I didn’t want people to find out and think someone had broken into the underground dungeon and cause a fuss.” (Arnos)

“…..Then don’t go sneaking off and making something outrageous then…..” Sasha muttered to herself.

“It might not be related to Nousgalia but there’s something else I’d like to mention.” (Melheys)

“What?” (Arnos)

“I quickly informed the unification faction that Arnos-sama was the demon king of tyranny and just now I received a message from the head of the Unificationists, the Founder.” (Melheys)

Fumu. The mysterius mazoku that not even Melheys has met.

“And?” (Arnos)

“They said that they were a mazoku from 2000 years ago.” (Melheys)

I see. This could explain why they were not able to appear.

“Their name?” (Arnos)

“The right hand of the demon king of tyranny Shin Reglia.” (Melheys)

Shin huh?

Did his reincarnation go well? Apparently, he has his memories back.

“He is in the great spirit forest Ahartherun. Apparently, all your former followers have been waiting there for your reincarnation.” (Melheys)

He stayed away from Deiruheido so that I wouldn’t notice him, however, the matter with Avos Dillheavia has already been settled.

“Why hasn’t he appeared?” (Arnos)

“He said some circumstances were stopping him from moving and that he awaits you in Ahartherun.” (Melheys)

Shin has never asked me to go to him before. Even if the gods were standing in his way, that man would come to me himself, even if he had to cut them down.

What are these serious circumstances that stop him from moving?

“……Ahartherun…..” Misa muters to herself.

She looks down. Is she worried about the great spirit Reno?

“That half-demon sword the subordinate of the curse king had.” (Ray)

Ray picked up the half-sword with no tip with a serious look on his face.

Misa’s father was supposed to have the other half.

“When you look into its abyss you can see its original appearance.” (Ray)

I turn my demon eyes to the sword Ray’s holding.

“Fumu. I see. You can’t understand with just half but when both are gathered you can. Even then you have to have seen the sword before.” (Arnos)

Ray walks over to the plinth that contains the other half of the sword and pulls it out before pushing the 2 halves together. The next moment both swords are wrapped in a black light.

The 2 halves unite and its shape distorts before forming its true appearance of a curved sword.

“I see. The plunder sword Gilionojes” (Arnos)

A unique sword that only Shin used.
