The Misfit of Demon King Academy

I calmly step forward and head towards the heroes.

Forming a line next to me is Ray with his sword Sigshesta and Sasha wearing her <Phoenix Vestment> is on the other side.

Misha also silently joins the line while Misa and eight members of the fan union follow behind.

Misa casts a questioning look at me with her eyes and I nod.

That makes 13 people in total. We now meet the number of required people.

“Heine” (Arnos)

Like someone unwinding after finishing their work he sits on a rock by the lakeshore and casts an innocent smile at me.

“Yo, Onii-san. That senpai was really weak. If that’s a third years student then the mazoku are no big deal.” (Heine)

Heine laughs trying to provoke me.

“If you were the genuine hero Kanon you wouldn’t have needed to use that barrier.” (Arnos)

The expression of Heine who was smiling comfortably distorted slightly.

“What are you trying to say?” (Heine)

“No matter what you do or how far you go you’re just a fake. A hero is someone who holds both strength and courage. At the height of the great war that man even gave mercy to the mazoku. Even if you look-alike you are nothing like that man that lived his life in constant conflict.” (Arnos)

“Heee. Are you saying I’m not a hero? You speak like you knew him.” (Heine)

Heine spits his words out.

“What do you know of humans Onii-san? Are you a reincarnated person? You may have met the hero but we still hear his voice to this day.” (Heine)

Fumu. Now that’s something interesting he’s just said.

Let’s talk about it in detail after I beat them up.

“And? Are you playing with us next Onii-san?” (Heine)

“Aah. Do your best to hang on. I’m going to twist and crush that boring pride of yours.” (Arnos)

Standing behind Heine, Ledoriano pushes his glasses up with his index finger while Laos stands up and cracks his knuckles. All the Jergakanon guys are motivated now.

“Sorry to interrupt all the excitement but your opponents are not Jergakanon.” (Diego)

Diego walks over to us.

“To begin with if they fight now Jergakanon will be fighting consecutive battles. You might think you can win if they are exhausted but that’s just cowardly or is that how you are taught in the demon king academy?” (Diego)

Deigo sneers at us while talking.

“Sorry, but this is the hero academy. You will refrain from using such tricks while here.” (Diego)

This fellow is number one at getting caught up in the moment and getting all cocky.

“The next opposition exam with Jergakanon will be held later. I really don’t know what you are trying to achieve with your insults. If you want to fight them then how about you fight my 3rd years first? The battle will start in five minutes. How about it?” (Diego)

I see. You want to let Jergakanon rest while we expose our power.

After fighting his 3rd years it will become a consecutive battle for us instead and he’s using lack of time to start the battle right away.

Such tedious little tricks he’s using.

“I couldn’t care less. Send out the small fries.” (Arnos)

Diego grins and laughs.

Looks like he thinks everything’s going his way.

The holy water barrier can be used even by non reincarnated humans so does he intend to cut our power down as much as possible and let Jergakanon finish us off in the end?

“Then let’s begin immediately. Where do you want your base?” (Arnos)

“Give us the underwater city.” (Diego)

We turn around and head towards the lake.

“Aah, first of all, can I just say I can’t use Underwater Activity <Coco> magic.” Ray says while flashing his refreshing smile.

“……… Okay. It’s an underwater battle. What do intend to do?” Sasha says while seeming surprised.

“It’s fine. I can hold my breath for a long time.” (Ray)

“Huh?” (Sasha)
