I Became the Demon Grand Duke in the Academy

chapter 16



16 – aka wheel – 16

“You look cute.”

Hearing my words, the president snorted as if he was dumbfounded, and then made a wicked expression.

“is it so? Then, would you like to touch it?”

“Can I?”

“Yeah, whatever. First of all, it’s one of the summons that signed a contract with me.”

I wonder if it was the president’s summons?

Cerberus slowly approaching me.

The sight of a giant three-headed puppy approaching me was fantastic.

“Gregory, are you really okay? That pup… … I think it would be very scary.”

Rose, who was behind me, carefully asked me if she was worried.

don’t you know me That the president is doing that to bully me.

But I wouldn’t have expected this.

“Cerberus. sit down.”

“king!”

As soon as the approaching Cerberus hears my words, he slumps down in his seat.

Three heads panting and sticking out their tongues. The one and only tail is buzzing.

“What is this… … .”

And the president opens his mouth as if he doesn’t understand this situation.

Do I even need to explain it?

“ah! It’s because Gregory-sama is a devil.”

Fortunately, Rose explained instead.

“… … Gregory. You said you were the Archduke.”

“Yes, he recognized my rank.”

Cerberus is a high-ranking witch who lives in the demon realm. Even if it was an ordinary devil, it was natural for him to automatically curl his tail when he saw a devil of the level of a grand duke.

“He seems like an unusual guy among Cerberus. Does he have a name?”

“… … thin. He is the boss of the Cerberus group.”

Oh, was it a named mob? It was a guy who had been released as a card before.

Rating is R. There was also the level of the summoner, the president, so he would be able to chew up to a tolerable SR grade.

Even if I acted like this now, if I tried to force myself into the academy, he might eat me in one bite.

“Cerberus has been cute enough, so let’s go inside soon.”

After stroking Cerberus’ head as he leaned down, he got up from his seat and said that. The chancellor sighed.

“… … Yes. thin. I’ll go to the Young Medicine High School.”

“bruise!”

Gyareum stepped back and entered the original hole. It must have been that Gyareum’s house was there.

The president stood in front of the door of Young Yak High School and touched his hand. Then he began to mumble in an incomprehensible language.

“Gregory! That is an ancient language!”

“… … Could you understand the ancient language?”

It was unexpected. To think that Roger, a poor half-elf, knows the ancient language.

“I learned it when I was young. I-I’m from the Euglia family after all, right?”

I thought that if it was the culture of the old elves, I might have had enough early education.

“It’s probably some kind of chant that breaks the seal. I thought this level of security was only available on the world tree, but it’s amazing.”

“There must be so many precious things.”

In fact, it seemed that the security was much stronger than the one that came out in the game.

How many times have you been robbed?

While I was having an unkind conversation with Rosé in the back, the iron door made of iron began to open slowly.

“Come in.”

“It’s taking longer than expected.”

“It’s a warehouse where the most expensive items in the academy are gathered. It was designed so that it would take time to open even if the skin was damaged.”

“Not a bad way.”

“Yes?”

Upon entering the door, a space reminiscent of a museum appeared.

Each elixir was stored in a glass tube.

“Welcome to the Academy’s greatest pride, Youngyak High School. You haven’t forgotten your promise, have you?”

“So, you only took one, didn’t you?”

“Yes, I personally recommend the hundred-year plum blossoms.”

“Are you talking about the flower that blooms only once in 100 years?”

It was a material that was often used as an experience point material in the game.

“You know? Miss Euglia is a half-elf, so she’ll go well with the wood-element elixir.”

Certainly, Rose can accumulate more mana than other elixirs.

But I had an elixir I had in mind from the beginning.

“Sorry, but that’s for the next one.”

“If you say so… … Wait, what next?”

I ignored the president who said that and walked to the far end of the Young Yak High School.

Rosé follows behind me. The place where I stopped was the wall at the end of the academy.

“Open.”

“yes?”

The president tilts his head as if he doesn’t know what he’s talking about.

Do you think I’ll be fooled by that level of acting?

“What you said was one of the elixirs in the arsenal. Since this relief is also included as an elixir, I have the right to go inside and choose an elixir.”

When you hit the wall with your hand, you hear a thud.

It sounded like it was empty.

“Wait a minute! How the hell do you know there? It’s a space hidden with all sorts of magic, let alone obstruction of perception?”

As I was walking, I also said long games. Because in the game, the 2nd Elixir Vault existed here.

2nd Young Yakgo. A place where we keep the magic vaults that are higher in level than the magic vaults we are in now.

It was a place that did not appear in the original work and appeared in the prequel game [Summoner of the World].

“Do I have to tell you all about that?”

I said that because I didn’t bother to explain it, but the president came up to me and said with his eyes wide open.

“yes! Of course I have to say it! The 2nd Spiritual Medicine High School is a place only a few of the faculty members of the academy know about, isn’t it strange that you, who have been summoned for less than a week, know about it?!”

Oh, bother. I just decided to tell you the truth as it is.

“I have been here with Schnaglo, the 13th president. Is it okay?”

The 13th president of Summoner Academy.

Schnaglo Orphee. He was the person who rose to become the academy’s president right after the hero Lars sealed the disaster.

Now that the president is in his 25s, he was no different from a distant senior.

“With the 1st and 13th presidents? what the hell are you… … .”

The president soon gave up on thinking and stood in front of the door of the 2nd Young Yak High School. The president casually grabbed the doorknob and opened it sideways.

“… … Is this the end?”

“Did you know there was a great security device? If you’re a person who has already pierced cognitive impairment and all kinds of magic, you’ll be able to pierce it no matter what kind of magic you use. I just made it into a sliding door.”

Surprisingly, there are many people who can’t open the sliding door.

Having said that, the president entered the 2nd Miracle Vault.

The second elixir vault looked like a small room. In front of my eyes are personal safes that can only be found in banks.

Each personal safe had a written description of what kind of elixir was inside.

“Ha, take your pick. Whatever you choose here, I have no power to be surprised anymore.”

As if giving up, the president leaned against the wall and sighed.

I was just worried about how many times I sighed today alone.

“If you sigh too much, you will lose your fortune.”

“That’s something my grandmother used to say. … … I don’t think it’s a demon.”

No, it was a story I heard from my grandmother too.

I looked at the personal safe, leaving the president who was stunned behind. Rosé was also looking at the elixirs one by one as if she were curious.

“Gregory! It’s awesome here! There are elixirs from legends and tales!”

“I guess. This place is like a real treasure trove.”

I said that and casually put my hand on one of the personal safes.

chin. and there was a hand blocking my hand.

“Hey, wait!”

“… … Why? Didn’t you say you don’t have the power to be surprised?”

“That and this are different! Are you really trying to pick that one?!”

A personal safe that the president is desperately trying to block. There was a piece of paper with the words [Golden Fruit of the World Tree] written on it.

“right. This elixir is also of wood attribute, so it will go well with rosé.”

This fruit is the condensed fruit of the World Tree, the power of life that spread throughout the world after the disaster disappeared, and it belongs to the highest tier among wood attribute elixirs.

“Oh, no. Still, this doesn’t work!”

“Any reason?”

“This, this is the elixir I’ve been working hard to give to the princess, the first year senior!”

Did the princess also have a wood attribute?

“If that’s the reason… … .”

“Do you understand?!”

“It doesn’t matter if we have it.”

“yes?!”

I called Rosé, who was looking at the safe with a grin.

“Rosé.”

“yes!”

“The golden fruit of the World Tree. you have it.”

“All right!”

“wait for a sec! Just please!!”

A safe that opens easily if there is no separate locking device. It seemed to be used only for storage.

“and… … This is the golden fruit of the World Tree. I heard that my grandmother picked it herself… … . I never thought I would eat it myself.”

Grandma? Ah, the lifespan of an elf is longer than that of a human, so isn’t it very strange?

“Ahh… … Ahh… … .”

The president cries as he sees Rose taking out the fruit.

Not blocking it by force is still a promise, so it can’t be helped.

“Gregory? Can I eat this as it is?”

“Yes, swallow it in one bite.”

“yes!”

A fruit the size of a cherry tomato. Rosé said ‘I’ll eat well~’ and put it in her mouth at once.

“hmm… … hmm! Gregory! Is this really delicious?”

“Yes—”

what. Right before he could finish his words, golden light exploded from Rosé’s body.

Fortunately, there was no physical force, so I didn’t fly back, but it was a surprising enough situation.

The light faded little by little, and I could see Rose looking around her body.

“Ah, Mr. Gregory… ! I’m in the 3rd circle!”

A soft light was spinning around Rosé’s body. Perhaps the effect of the elixir was stronger than expected, and Rosé, who was in the 1st circle, jumped over the 2nd circle.

“Then I can go up to 3 stars without difficulty.”

This world, like a world that was a f*cking game, had a lock on growth.

That was the reason why I only got 2 stars in the Demon Realm even though I ate so many Mana Stones and Prism Stones.

Originally, in order to shoot 2 stars without difficulty, I had to make Rosé into a 2nd circle first, but at that time, the situation was not easy and I had to force myself to break through.

However, it was easy for me to become a 3-star as Rosé has now formed the 3rd circle.

All you need is a decent amount of combat, fear, and elixir.

Growth experience greatly increases from 3 stars, so it will take a while though.

“Ah, the golden fruit of the World Tree… … .Ha ha ha ha ha.”

The president sits down and continues to laugh nonchalantly. For some reason, I felt like I had done something really bad.

No, it’s natural because it’s a devil.

Still, my heart was stabbed and I felt like I needed to comfort her.

“Don’t worry, President. We’ll take the top spot for this test. You comforted the princess, who was second in line, and roughly… … Just give me hundred-year-old plum blossoms.”

“… … Is that what you call consolation now?”

“Didn’t you hear that?”

I’m sorry then.

Leaving behind the president, who was smiling as if he had lost his mind after hearing my consolation, I approached Rosé and asked.

“What’s wrong with your body?”

“no. On the contrary, I am in the best condition ever.”

Fortunately, as befits the family that manages the World Tree, it seems that they have completely absorbed the elixir.

Originally, I had to sit in place and capture the mana for hours to fully absorb it, but… … .

“You are the one who smokes cigarettes with the leaves of the world tree.”

Rosé’s body had already perfectly adapted to the World Tree, so she chose this elixir because there was no need for that.

“… … How did you know that the golden fruit of the world tree was here?”

The president, who was sitting behind me, asked me.

“A guy I know told me.”

It was something Paimon told me separately before parting ways.

‘Recently, there is news that a person who seems to be the president of the academy has obtained the golden fruit of the world tree. If Rose, your summoner, consumes it, there will be great results.’

I thought it would be in the 2nd Spiritual Medicine Vault because it was not in the 1st Spiritual Medicine Vault, but it was fortunate that the prediction was correct.

“Rosé, since the circle has risen two levels, you should be able to see the status window in more detail. Let’s check it out.”

“yes!”

As the summoner, Rose, has grown up, my status window must have changed as well.

“Status window… … hmm?”

After reciting that, I was astonished when I saw the status window that appeared in front of me.
