Hybrid x Heart Magias Academy Ataraxia

In order to fix Love Rooms weakness, the low level of its mob AI, Shikina Kei incorporated the AI that was built in Exodia Exodus, a VRMMORPG game that was developed by the private sector in the past.

Kizuna and Amaterasu each entered a separate Love Room to test the newly implemented environmental data and the character AIs that were inside.

However for some reason Kizuna appeared in the demon king castle Infermia, where the demon subordinates called Hellsecter worshipped him as demon king.

Imcoming in.

Kizuna arrived at the meeting room of the castle that could only be used by the upper brass, that meant the demon king and the leaders.

The place looked like a gothic style church from the Middle Age. But the place looked more like a demons lair rather than a house of god. The room was dark, with the interior design resembling demon or eerie monster. It was truly an ominous place.

It seemed that Kizuna was currently set as the castles owner, but he could only hunch in fear. Kizuna secretly entered inside with a hesitant conduct, but the man that was dressed as a butler sharply noticed him.

Isnt this the king. Its an honor to stand before your majestic presence.

This was the handsome vampire who was wearing glasses, Adra.

Lord king, whats the matter with ya? Are you free? Then how about going hunting with me?

This was a handsome werewolf with muscular body and ears growing on top of his head, Glasya.

Originally there should be two more people,

The fallen angel Forneus, a beautiful woman with blonde hair and blue eyes, white wings growing from her back, with a ring of light around her waist.

The beautiful and seductive dark elf Satanachia who had brown skin and white hair.

Those four were Kizunas, no, demon king Hellshafts close aides and the generals leading the four army corps of the demon king army Hellanders.

However even the trusted retainers Hellsecters would stop being loyal subordinates if their Loyalty status decreased and would revolt against the demon king.

In fact, Forneus and Satanachia almost revolted against Kizuna when their Loyalty parameter dropped.

I somehow handled them using a method like Heart Hybrid, but what should I do with these two?

Kizuna could only pray inside his heart so that these twos loyalty wouldnt drop no matter what.

Kizuna sat down on an excessively large chair while thinking of such thing. Just how big the demon king was that he needed a chair this large? To be honest, it would fit more if he sat on it while wearing Technical Gear.

King, pardon my hastiness but, there was a report that some strange fellows appeared at the vicinity of Caldert.

Strange fellows?

Adra placed his finger below the bridge of his glasses and pushed it up.

Yes. According to the orc who made the report, theyre wearing unfamiliar armors and they look like human, but their combat strength rivaled even high class monster.

Glasya leaned forward eagerly.

What the hell with that? Aint that interesting! Say, Lord King. Im gonna go to kill those guys!

Strange fellowshuh.

Kizuna thought that they were most likely Aine and co.

Got it. Then, can you show me the way to Caldert?

There is no need for that.

A familiar voice resounded inside the unfamiliar castle. The door opened and a silver haired girl wearing white armor entered.

Aine!

Aah! Kizuna-kun, youre really here as expected.

Himekawa appeared behind AIne, then next Yurishia entered inside the room without any reservation at all.

Really Kizuna, youre a demon king even inside the Love Room.

She chuckled and stared at Kizuna who was sitting on a large chair.

It should be enough testing already right? Lets return back al

Adra pulled out a sword from behind his tuxedo and suddenly attacked.

Hayuru!

Yurishia backed off. In exchange Himekawa stepped forward with her sword unsheathed. The two swords clashed and scattered around sparks. Adra kept glaring at Himekawa while apologizing to Kizuna.

King, my deepest apologies for allowing you to take a look at these deplorable fellows. I shall dispose of them immediately.

Ha!? W-who are you calling deplorable

Adras words made Himekawa flustered. Adra untangled his sword from Himekawas sword using that opening and slashed again at her with a beautiful sword technique. Himekawa also swung her Sword and blocked the attack, but she couldnt find any opening to attack back.

Hayuru? Dont play around, do something about him quickly. If the opponent use sword then its your responsibility right?

Please dont say something so selfish! This person

Is strong. What a splendid swordsmanship. His speed and destructive power arent at all inferior compared to me who are wearing Heart Hybrid Gear. His appearance is like a flesh and blood human, but most likely thats not actually the case.

Aine cracked her fingers and stepped forward.

It cant be helped. Ill

Glasya turned toward Aine and kicked the floor to leap toward her.

URAAAAAAAAAAAA!

Glasyas arm enlarged when he punched with it. Steel furs grew on his arm as it enlarged and lengthened to be several times bigger than normal human arm. That arm shot toward Aine with a terrific speed.

Kuh!

Aines punch and Glasyas punch clashed. A powerful shockwave spread out and shook the windows glass.

No way!? Hes as strong as Zeross punch!?

Kizuna was astounded seeing Adra and Glasya fighting equally against Amaterasu.

And then for some reason he felt deeply moved because it was like he was watching the original function that Love Room was made for as a combat simulator.

Althoughsomehow, I cant bear seeing them fight like this.

Even if they were just data, these guys looked up and worshipped him as their master. It pained his heart a little seeing them fighting against Amaterasu.

Kizuna stood up from his chair and opened his mouth to address everyone.

Everyone

.

STOP THERE!

.

A voice that sounded like it came from the bottom of earth thundered.

The tall door opened and a large body that corresponded to the size of the entrance appeared. A black armor that reached the height of 230 cm. Flame like burning magma could be seen inside from the armor gaps.

Arms that were even thicker than human legs dangled down from his wide shoulders. His chest was so massive that it gave the impression that perhaps he wouldnt fall even if he was hit by cannon shot. But even though he was so rugged, he had a tight waist instead, making him far away from looking slow and heavy. The mantle flapping on his back was mysteriously blazing and flickering like flame.

A sonorous voice resounded from that armor.

.

The inferno of hell that was born from the abyss of darkness

.

Adra raised his voice in shock seeing that existence.

King!?

Kizunas eyes also widened.

So this isthe real demon king.

An overwhelming presence. There was even pressure that could be felt from the pulses of magic power that huge body radiated. The helmets eye part was dark as though it was connected to the darkness of hell. Light flickered like flame inside it.

The Absolute Ruler of Flame and Darkness! Hellshaft!!

.

Hellshaft twisted his waist and spread out his arms toward Kizuna.

.

Wandering travelers, king of another world, listen to the voice of the world calling for thee and return home. This is the forbidden sanctuary that is only allowed for thedemon kingme.

.

Five more seconds until the designated finishing time. Four, three, two

Keis voice entered Kizunas ear. The countdown progressed and the demon king castle Infermia vanished at the same time when the voice reached zero.

Eh?

In front of Kizunas eyes was a pure white wall. He was inside a small square space that had nothing inside.

Im insideLove Room. Well, of course I am.

He went outside and found Aine, Himekawa, and Yurishia exiting from their respective Love Room too.

Kizunaaa~, good work in there

Yeah, thanks for your hard work. Everyone, do you feel anything strange with your condition?

Aine nodded with some reluctance.

Yeah, no problem here.

Even so, the new AI is amazing. They look no different from living human at all to meI want to try talking with that person called Asagiri-san again.

When Himekawa muttered that, Keis window opened in front of her eyes.

Good work. The first stage of the experiment is a success for now. Our experiment today is over with this.

Roger that, Shikina-san.

Kizuna suddenly recalled something before he cut off the communication.

Shikina-san. The people that we encountered inside Love Room just now, are they really just game characters? They felt strangely real to me.

No doubt about it. They are characters that were made for the game Exodia Exodus.

Heeso there was an amazing game like that. Its surprising.

Kizuna spoke with admiration. Yurishia also agreed.

Its true. I might want to play that game too for a bit.

Thats impossible. This game isnt in circulation right now.

The four dropped their shoulders dejectedly.

However, they would be able to go to that world again if they activated the Exodia Exodus data that had been added into Love Room as a new option.

Those characters were strangely lively and humane for game characters. They had a strange charm to them. But the only thing that bothered them was the demon king Hellshaft who appeared at the end.

The king who ruled over the world Exodia Exodus.

What kind of figure was hidden under that armor? Besides, his lines sounded like he was urging Kizuna and others to return to their own world.

He didnt look like a simple last boss character.

Just what is his true identity?

He wanted to try talking with him a bit more in the next test, Kizuna thought.
