chapter 3
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
The fight that no one stopped started to get more and more intense.
“How dare these bastards!”
“Are you spilling demon energy on me?”
“I don’t like the way you look.”
“Why are you breathing in front of me?”
In the end, other students around them were caught up in the fight, which spread to a group war.
‘What the hell is this?’
I’ve given up on understanding.
I wonder if I’m weird when I see the students who fight despite the fact that the highest person in the academy is right next to them, and Veigar who smiles happily when he sees that.
‘Am I not weird?’
But I had to shake my head.
If the normal person is alone in the abnormal, the normal person becomes abnormal.
‘This is the world I have to live in from now on, so I’ll have to adapt.’
If it was Kyler Diablick, he would have taken it for granted.
I have to get used to this situation too.
Because that’s how you can live.
“Now, don’t worry about trivial quarrels and keep following me.”
“All right.”
It didn’t seem trivial at all, but I had neither the reason nor the ability to stop it, so just following it was the correct answer.
Just, I was a little curious about how to restore such destroyed buildings and facilities, but it was also ambiguous to ask.
While following Veigar like that.
Kwaaang!
Pew!
Kwak Kwa Kwak!
I had to watch a total of 6 gang fights.
‘I think I’m going crazy.’
I realized once again about the crazy world of the demon world.
“Right here.”
After passing through the chaotic battlefield, they arrived at a classroom with a pattern of black flames.
“This is where you will live for a year.”
“1 year… is it?”
“okay. Based on your performance during the year, it will decide whether you move on to the next level or stay here. We might not get out of here without progress.”
The basic method didn’t seem to be much different from the general academy.
Grades are given on a variety of criteria and students are graded accordingly.
It’s a very simple yet effective method.
“Oh, of course, in the worst case, you could be expelled, but I don’t think it has anything to do with you.”
“… … .”
I have the experience and knowledge of being an S-class hunter.

Under normal circumstances, that’s a huge asset.
But the problem is that the current situation is not a normal situation.
There is a high probability that what I know will be of little help in a world I know nothing about.
Of course, the status of being the son of the Great Demon King will be of great help, but it is not a positive situation at all because the standard will be raised that much.
‘Still, I’m glad I have time.’
It’s a very tiring situation for me, who haven’t fully grasped Kyler Diablick and the world of demons yet, but at least it’s fortunate that I won’t be expelled right away.
“I don’t have to go in with you, right?”
“of course. Thank you for guiding me.”
In fact, what I showed was students fighting and collapsing buildings, but it is true that I came to the classroom with his help anyway.
“great. Let’s talk again later. Then I will go.”
Veigar waved his hand and left the seat.
“after… .”
I took a few deep breaths before opening the door and entering.
“It reminds me of the first time I entered the old academy.”
At a young age when I was young, I was a little excited with the excitement and anticipation of meeting new friends, but my age and situation were different to have such feelings now.
“Now, I guess I’ll have to meet some new friends.”
I slowly entered the classroom.
* * *
noisy classroom.
Some laughed and chatted, while others joked around.
And there are students who are working hard on writing something or reading a book.
If you look at the situation, it’s an ordinary appearance.
It’s just that the beings who create that situation are a little, no, very unusual.
‘I was expecting this, but wow… .’
I expected it to a certain extent from the beings I encountered while coming with Veigar.
However, the actual (?) friends in the classroom were very diverse.
And those various friends were looking at me at the same time.
curiosity.
surprise.
and admiration.
Most of them were on the positive side.
‘I guess what Sebastian said earlier is correct.’
Kyler Diablick talked about being quite famous and receiving good reviews.
Even if he had a little accident at the entrance ceremony, it must have had a big impact on Kyler’s reputation.
Of course, it is true that my appearance calmed the noisy classroom atmosphere.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and just looked at me.
‘It’s a little awkward.’
When I was an S-class hunter, I was the one who received many people’s attention, but now the gaze was burdensome.
I can’t tell you not to look at me.
I slowly looked around the classroom.
Half of them are humanoid demons similar to me.
Although there are differences in the number and location of the horns, as well as their height and size, they do look like humans.
But the other half was different.
‘Well… .’
In addition to the skeletons and wolves that he encountered earlier, there were various types of beings.
There were cases similar to the monsters I encountered while living as a hunter, and there were also unusual appearances I had never seen before.
“Is that Kyler Diablick?”
“You look fine after being knocked out by the president earlier?”
“Veigar must have adjusted it.”
I’m talking about myself, but seeing that no students approach me, it seems that I don’t have any special friends.
I narrowed my brows and looked around again.
Then something caught my eye.
While everyone is filling the seats, there is only one empty seat.
Maybe that seat is my desk.
As I got closer, I could tell for sure.
The name Kylers Diablick was clearly visible on the small crystal ball placed on the desk.
‘Well… .’
And the gaze naturally turned to the side.
This is the seat allotted to me.
Then the existence next to me is my mate.
And that pair is right.
‘Slime?’
It was a strange creature that looked like a slime.
‘Slime… Right?’
First of all, the basic appearance is the same as slime.
A monster you have encountered in a dungeon or gate.
They are very weak and pose no threat, so most of them are slimes for training purposes.
The slime in front of me doesn’t look that strong either.
If only there was something different from the slime I knew.
‘Eyes and… It has a mouth.’

Unlike jelly-like slimes with nothing in them, this one was a slime with eyes and a mouth.
And that figure was quite, no, very cute.
‘It would be very popular if sold as a character.’
Of course, I don’t know if there is such a thing in this demon realm, but anyway, the slime in front of me was cute.
And the way the slime turned its round eyes to me gave me a little exclamation.
“You are cute. I wish I had a pet like this.”
My true heart came out without my knowledge.
But as soon as I finished my words, the surroundings became noisy again.
“Is he also Diablo-sama’s son?”
“I’m going to make you a slave… It’s tougher than you think.”
“I love that look. ha… .”
“Keukkeuk… Indeed, the man I recognized.”
It seems that I have firmly misunderstood.
And there were also some very strange reactions.
But the first thing I had to worry about was the slime.
“me… Make me a slave?”
I never said I was a slave.
Of course, from the point of view of acceptance, pets can be similarly accepted.
“Ah, I made a mistake in my words… .”
“yes! Please make me your slave!”
“?”
I tilted my head as I saw the slime talking with its bright eyes shining.
“now… what?”
“Kailus, the son of the great Diablo, can become a slave!”
“… … .”
A slime suddenly begs to be enslaved.
I was at a loss as to how to react.
Of course, it is normal to express your intention to refuse.
But now I’m Kyler Diablick.
Therefore, the reaction must also be from his point of view.
‘What would Kyler Diablick do?’
Kylus, who had figured it out through Sebastian’s story and diary, would have said this in this situation.
“I refuse.”
“Uh, why!”
The big eyes shake violently, probably because of the shock.
Of course, that figure is also very cute.
“Because I don’t need slaves.”
It cringes so much.
But the words are coming out well.
Kyler Diablick is a being who pursues perfection to the extent that he says this without changing his face color.
Fortunately, my body knows how to adapt.
“I guess so. Countless people must already follow Kyler, but there won’t be a place for a guy like me… .”
Slime lowered her head with a sullen expression.
“What is your name?”
Slime hurriedly answers my question.
“My name is Jetty… !”
It is a very sweet name.
“Jetty. I said there was no need for slaves.”
“yes? what is that… Come on, can you?”
There is anticipation in the big eyes.
And I said something that met that expectation.
“How about friends who build trust with each other?”
“Chi, are you friends?”
“okay. Isn’t this more romantic than the harsh word slave?”
“… Wow!”
Plump.
Jetty is delighted by bouncing her body vigorously.
I looked at him and smiled softly.
And when I saw myself like this, the surroundings became noisy again.
“As you have heard, he is merciful.”
“As expected, the son of the Great Demon King.”
“ha… I love that look.”
“As expected, the man I recognized.”
Obviously a different reaction than before.
However, there are still strange reactions mixed in that are intrusive.
Of course, it doesn’t feel hostile to me.
I just think that no matter what I do or say, these guys will look at me favorably.
‘Is the position of being the son of the Great Demon King that great?’
If I compared the situation of the earth I lived in, would it feel like looking at the child of the world’s strongest hunter?
‘No. Anyway, I’m not so blind.’
Even though he is the son of the world’s strongest hunter, that son is not the world’s strongest either.
It’s a great background, but it doesn’t bow unconditionally or show a favorable reaction like the case now.
It’s just that this demonic world is strange.
“Jetty. Let’s get along well for the next year.”
“No, of course. I will do my best to become a friend that Kyler can be satisfied with.”
“We’re friends, so feel free to talk.”
“Ha, but how dare I… .”
Jetty is worried while rolling her big eyes.
I looked into his eyes and nodded.
“Okay. In Demonic, everything is decided by skill, not rank.”
“yes! Oh no… yes.”
The first friend I made in the strange world of demons became slime.
‘Honestly, cute things were big. The other guys are still… under… I’ll have to adapt.’
If Jetty had a stern or vicious appearance, it might have been difficult to treat her so comfortably.
And there are a lot of friends who are difficult to treat comfortably in this classroom.
And he’s casting a blatant glance at me.
I tried to ignore them and talked to Jetty.
“Do you know what the schedule is for today?”
“uh? uh… I heard that there is nothing special because it is the first day. That’s right, I heard that students who haven’t been introduced to the Evil Force receive separate education.”
“Right.”
Evil Force.
I don’t know what it is, but I remember seeing it in Kyler’s diary.
‘I must have liked that I received compliments.’
Jetty looked at me and made an envious expression.
“Kailus-sama, no, Kylas must be learning the Evil Force. And that’s incredibly good.”
Of course I am learning.
But I don’t know what it is.
You have no idea how far you have learned it, or where the final stage is.
It’s a fact I learned from Kyler’s diary, and it’s because Kylas learned that.
‘It would be nice if it could be easily checked like the status window.’
That moment.
Paaah.
A hologram appeared before my eyes.
‘uh?’
Letters and numbers in a very familiar form.
It was the status window.
Why is this floating here?
