chapter 12
I doubted my ears for a moment.
hamburger?
Americano?
It’s a word that can’t come out of this demon world, and it doesn’t fit.
Let’s say the suit is like that.
No, it’s ambiguous to say that, but at least it’s more convincing than a hamburger or Americano.
However, those words that came out of the professor’s mouth were strange no matter how you look at them.
‘No, just in case. There may be such foods in this demon realm.’
I don’t know exactly, but I know that the world of demons is very wide.
So, wouldn’t it be possible that there are as many different foods as the Earth?
‘Even so, I don’t think that’s the case.’
It’s not even a similar food, it was exactly a hamburger and Americano.
This was a word that couldn’t have been said if you didn’t know about those foods.
‘Am I the only one who knows that professor?’
This was evident from the chef’s reaction to the menu.
“ah… I’m sorry, but could you say that again?”
“I said hamburger and Americano.”
“uh… .”
A chef with a warm impression looks at his colleagues around him.
However, all of them ignore his gaze and do their own thing.
Cold sweat ran down the cook’s forehead.
It looks pretty flustered rolling its eyes back and forth.
Looking at that reaction, it seems that the menu the professor ordered was not normal.
“Has the main chef changed?”
“Ah, that… The head chef took some time off for personal reasons.”
“Well… .”
“Has the head chef prepared the professor’s food all this time?”
“Yes. It’s a pity that I even gave you a simple recipe and asked for it.”
“Lessie… Ah, sorry anyway, but it seems difficult now.”
“Okay. Good job.”
Is it my imagination that the professor’s shoulders look droopy as he turns around and returns to his seat?
‘Something strange.’
not human
A pair of horns extending from both sides clearly indicated that he was a demon.
But for some reason, I still feel familiar with him.
‘Shall we talk to you?’
It is not at all unusual for a student to ask a question to a professor.
If you have any questions, ask a question, and the professor will answer the question.
In an academy, this is a common situation where, of course, you have to come out.
Of course, in this demonstration, the professor is closer to confirming the student’s achievements rather than teaching them.
However, learning is not forbidden.
But while I was thinking about it for a moment, the professor left his seat in an instant.
‘I should aim for the next opportunity.’
And it’s like waiting.
“You bastard! Did you tease me earlier?”
“hem? Your eyes look like that, are you arguing now?”
“You’re not even a kid to eat this kind of food hahaha!”
“Better than four-faced garbage food!”
Fights break out on all sides.
As Jetty said, food flies, tables and chairs flies.
Of course, students also fly here and there.
It must have been that the professor was suppressing this fight earlier.
‘How did he do it?’
Makai is a world where the rule of the jungle is applied, and if you are a professor, you must be strong.
However, it was a bit strange to be quiet in the cafeteria just because there were so many guys fighting without paying attention even in front of the president.
“I think we should talk about it later.”
“yes? what?”
“not. Don’t let me finish the meal.”
We finished our meal at a restaurant where people and food were flying around.
* * *
Every day at the academy is very busy.
A variety of education and training.
And fierce competition takes place every day to keep up with the same students.
Of course, this is the case of a general academy.
Now this place is Demonic.
It is an academy in the demon realm.
“Is the academy right for you…? .”
different education?
none.
systematic training?
none.
Fierce competition among students?
There is this.
To be precise, there is only ‘a fierce battle’.
Just a fight with no purpose or motive to defeat the opponent and climb higher.
We fight because we don’t like it, and we fight because people around us fight.
I sigh at myself, who has quickly adapted to this absurd situation, but I can’t help it.
Because I can’t change anything on my own.
“Still, it seems that the number of guys attacking me has decreased.”
“Because Kyler is strong.”
“Kuhm… Most of the time, I can’t stand it, but I think I’ll avoid Kyler as well.”
Even from my point of view, it is a good thing that there are no annoying guys.
It was tiring to keep beating even the easiest opponents in a situation where their stats barely rose even when dealing with weak ones.
‘If I deal with seniors or professors, I think it’ll work.’
Except for the case of opponents attacking me, the only ones I can deal with are seniors and professors.
The problem was that the seniors said they couldn’t meet right now, and it was strangely difficult to meet the professors.

Until now, except for the professor in charge, Cedric, and the mysterious professor he had met at the cafeteria, he had never met.
‘It’s not like I’m hiding on purpose.’
I even thought about going out of the academy.
I was lost in thoughts like that.
“Everyone is working hard.”
A voice broke my thoughts.
A body made of flaming wheels and ice.
It was Professor Cedric.
“Um, good. It’s a good vibe.”
Cedric put on a happy expression as he watched the fights taking place here and there.
After looking around for a while, Cedric raised his hand.
At the same time, I felt a heavy pressure pressing down on the entire class.
Even the students who fought mindlessly.
Even the sleeping students.
Even the students who were talking.
Everyone turned to Cedric for the pressure.
“Now, stop what you’re doing and pay attention to what I’m saying.”
It’s a bit embarrassing to do that after it’s already drawn attention.
“At our Demonic, we have a lot to offer for our students. And support a lot of activities.”
I don’t know what is supported, but it does.
“And there are club activities among them.”
buzz buzz.
At Cedric’s words, the atmosphere in the classroom becomes chaotic.
The words that came out just now were absurd.
‘A club?’
Of course, it is not strange that the academy has clubs.
No, maybe it should exist.
There is nothing like a club to exchange knowledge among students and build friendships with each other.
People with similar hobbies were able to become friends more quickly.
Even when I was at Hunter Academy, there was a club and I remember joining and being active.
if there is a problem.
‘From here?’
That this is the Demonic Academy Demonic.
A club in a place where you fight every day, always fight, and fight non-stop?
Even if you make a club, it’s good if you don’t fight in it.
‘Could it be that the club here is different from the one I knew?’
Wouldn’t it be that people with similar hobbies or interests don’t get together, but just get together and fight organizedly with other clubs?
Rather, this seems more likely.
‘It could be seen as a violent organization.’
In this demon realm, this one suits her better.
Students form organizations and engage in large-scale group battles.
‘Well… It must be this way too.’
Of course I thought it was this way.
However, my expectations were wonderfully missed.
“Now, I will tell you about the various clubs in our school.”
Cedric waved lightly, and light emanated from the orb in the center of the classroom.
The light turned to paper and fell in front of the students.
‘Is it some kind of magic? that’s interesting.’
The paper had the names and information of various clubs, and the professors in charge.
‘Anyway, most of them must be related to fighting.’
I slowly checked the contents of the paper.
and.
‘Is this real?’
What was written on the paper was beyond my expectations.
* * *
If you could express the clubs written on the paper in one word.
normal.
That was it.
It was so plain and innocent.
General clubs such as travel clubs, reading clubs, music clubs, cooking clubs, and research clubs were crowded.
‘What is this… .’
I checked several times just to be sure, but nothing changed.
There were also clubs related to combat or fights, but they were extremely few and the majority were general clubs.
‘It’s absurd.’
It’s the first time I’ve come to this demon realm, so it’s rather embarrassing because it’s so normal.
I read what was written on the paper again.
<Travel Club>
Instructor: Clark Mason
Capacity: 20 people
Traveling to various places in the demon realm, checking and recording the scenery and information there.
<Reading Club>
Instructor: Grid O’Neill
Capacity: 30 people
He reads countless books of the demon realm and gains knowledge through them. The ultimate goal is to visit Gainus, the largest library in the demon realm.
“Well… .”
Nothing special.
No matter how you look at it, it’s a normal club.
It’s not a normal trip and reading because the place is in the demon world, but even taking that into consideration, it exceeded my expectations.
‘Is there a club that can help me in my current situation?’
If you want to understand the demon world in more detail, a reading club is fine.
But I am the son of the Demon King.
With Sebastian, a high-performing explainer, by his side, it is not difficult to listen to information if desired.
‘I think a travel club would be fine too.’
As you go around, you put your eyes on the world of demons and experience it.
I wonder if there is a way to grasp the world as effectively as this.
This demon realm is basically a space similar to the fantasy in the novel.
Of course, there are other points, but that’s just what I figured out.
Even if it is not a world with the Internet or media, and even if some convenience is guaranteed by using magic, it is undeniable that in the end it is best to jump and find out with your own body.
‘Let’s think about it for now.’
I was still reading the paper.
‘Well?’
There was a club that caught my eye.
<Cooking Club>
Instructor: Michael Douglas
Capacity: 5 people
Who wants delicious food.
Someone who wants weird food.
Who wants plain food.
don’t come
I only want special food.
The goal is to research and create only foods that are hard to see and taste in this world of demons.
‘Well… .’

Unlike other clubs so far, the number of seats was very small.
I don’t know if it’s because they expect it to be difficult to fill in the number of people, or if it’s because they’re trying to go with a small number of people.
Perhaps the former seems more likely.
Even if it doesn’t seem like there are many people with a hobby for cooking in this demonic, seeing that explanation will make you reluctant to join.
‘Shall we take a look around?’
If you research and make food that is difficult to see and taste in the realm of demons, maybe the food of the earth will be possible.
There was a professor who mentioned hamburger and Americano right away at the restaurant, so it wouldn’t be impossible.
‘Couldn’t that professor be the professor in charge?’
Come to think of it, the odds are pretty high.
If you specifically mentioned the food called hamburger, it means that you know about other foods to some extent, and of course there is a high probability that you are related to such a club.
‘Then, the cooking club… uh?’
the very end of the paper.
The moment I checked the name of the club written there, I could not believe my eyes.
<Different World Exploration Club>
Professor in charge: undecided
Garden: undecided
Research other dimensions except for the Demon Realm.
Arkenia, the spirit realm, and Earth.
Gather those who want to figure out how to cross into another dimension.
It was a club where I studied what I wanted and needed the most.
