I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy

26 – Straighten your shoulders, great queen – 3

“I don’t know if it suits you…”

A room provided for the sins of pride. Christine muttered.

The black dress Christine wore was quite revealing.

However, it wasn’t simply a question asking if it suited her, it was a question she was saying while looking at the rings, rings, necklaces, and tiaras on her chubby thighs.

As Christine, who likes simple things, this kind of decoration is very awkward.

It was to the point of appreciating it to herself that the word shackles would be more appropriate than the name decoration.

However, Artel nods with tears in her eyes.

“miss. It’s really beautiful… my lady…”

“You cry too often. Do you know?”

“sorry. This isn’t going the way we want it to… Lady Christine is finally this dignified… Hmmm…”

“You have to stay calm. Resolutely.”

However, Artel’s reaction was not something that Christine hated either. At the same time, I feel the responsibility weighing down on my shoulders.

She has no choice but to work hard in the future because she has so many followers who believe in her and follow her.

“…Adrian.”

I suddenly thought of you. Christine muttered the name.

I didn’t even expect it to come, so I didn’t expect it even more. However, he showed up at the banquet.

I didn’t know why, and I didn’t want to admit it, but I had to admit it.

He certainly saved Christine’s energy from the crisis. It is certain that the eyes looking at Christine easily at the banquet after his appearance have faded quite a bit.

Swoop- Swoop-

Artel, who was checking Christine’s clothes and ornaments, reacted immediately to the name.

“Do you care about that man?”

Christine nodded wordlessly. I couldn’t lie that I didn’t care about the casually spitting out his name.

“There was no particularly suspicious behavior.”

“I would like to hear more about the exact actions you took.”

Artel began to slowly review what he had seen.

Today’s Jekiel has been acting strangely. It’s not that I acted like crazy, it was strange behavior in the sense that I acted so differently than usual.

Basically, Jekyel was an intimidating figure.

Since he was ridiculously tall, and he was a man who knew how to decorate himself appropriately, it was a natural step for him to look precious.

Is the sin of arrogance just a simple modifier? He still had his own personality.

He met the thrones of sin in such a guise. It’s not that strange to meet someone at a banquet…

‘It was strangely different.’

He responded with a serious attitude to those who spoke to him, and if there were people who did not approach him, he cautiously approached and talked to them.

It’s like saying hello to everyone here at least once.

Could it be that the oddity was too great? Artel forgets even the question he was asked and instead spits out the question.

“Hey, have you reconciled with Jekiel-sama?”

“Well… ?”

Christine’s eyebrows twitched.

“It’s like that guy showed up wearing a ring today… And not doing anything that would be rude to the other guests at the banquet… ”

-I get it. Instead, don’t touch Christine.

-good night. Pay off the debt to Christine later.

– Say thank you to Christine.

All Artel overheard were such things. I didn’t even mention this.

The gap was so severe that I had no choice but to ask. I needed to know if there was something between Jekiel and Christine that Artel missed.

Only then will I be able to fulfill my role as a secretary better—

“What the hell are you talking about?”

It wasn’t a loud voice, but it was very distinct. Artel’s thoughts were cut off by that voice as firm as a sword.

“sorry. Anyway, Adrian didn’t do anything to bother Christine at the banquet today.”

I bowed my waist at ninety degrees and apologized politely, but I couldn’t hear any reply from the queen.

waited a little longer Because it is true that I acted rudely.

But it’s strange. No matter how long I wait, no answer comes back.

‘You’re sleeping… ?’

Suddenly, Christine’s head nodded. Christine never fell asleep during her long service.

and after a while

thud-

Christine falls forward like a log falling. Surprised so much, Artel’s eyes narrowed to 400 eyes.

“Ah, lady. miss?”

Artel, who knelt down and sat down, immediately checked Christine’s condition.

The ominously desolate space, all sorts of ominous things surround Artel.

“Ahhh..”

Christine, pale with blood in her mouth, trembled with her hands. Artel’s body becomes covered with sweat in an instant.

“Christine, Christine!”

Artel’s cry echoes.

.

.

Tsutsutsu—

The white snake of the Demon Realm. The sins of the times so called. Vivian flicked her forked tongue.

He closely examined Christine’s condition with his hands, but whenever he tilted his head in disbelief, Artel and other Christine’s henchmen clutched at her chest.

what if it goes wrong There was nothing I could do about my beating heart.

“Chut.”

Vivian withdraws from Christine.

“I don’t know.”

Despite looking at it for a long time, what finally came out of Vivian’s mouth was denial.

“Christine’s condition is like this… The Lamia people don’t know this?”

Artel had a good reason for asking this far.

Christine’s pale neck was swollen with veins that had turned purple.

It is a situation where there is no choice but to doubt poison, but aren’t the Lamia people almost the only ones who deal with poison in earnest in the demon realm?

“Your symptoms are openly poisonous, so are you going to say it so irresponsibly? Even thinking about future relationships… ”

“I told you. I don’t know. Tsutsu… If it was poison, I would have done something.”

“That means… ”

“It’s not poison.”

ha ha Artel’s sigh deepened.

“How can you say that it’s not poison?”

ttt ttt ttt. Vivian picks up a nearby vase, making a snake-like sound. Then, she gently bit off the petals.

Then the white flowers slowly turn purple and wither quickly. Later, it turns completely gray and falls off the calyx.

“This is poison, you know. After digging in, it spreads endlessly.”

“Isn’t Christine’s condition like that now?”

“no. It’s not something spreading… Rather, it seemed like he was lacking something.”

“Then what the hell is missing?”

As if in trouble, Vivian made a noise. Artel immediately apologized.

“sorry. I was in such a hurry… There was only about an hour left until the coronation…”

“I understand what you mean. But this is a problem that a vampire like you should see.”

After saying that, Vivian slowly slips out of the room. Without even opening the door, I somehow managed to crawl through the gap and get out.

“Same vampire… Even if it’s a vampire…”

Artel and other decent henchmen looked at the situation, but couldn’t even get a feel for it.

It was natural in the first place. This is because Christine’s body, a top-class individual, is as different as the sky and the earth from her own, a high-class individual.

Artel scratched his cheek with his fingernails. Because she failed to control her strength, her face was scarred and blood dripped.

But now, none of that mattered.

The coronation is an hour away… Christine can finally see the light… I mean, why did this happen?

It is certain that karma does not exist. It’s clear that Christine, who has never been a nuisance to anyone in her entire life, is going through something like this.

It is unfair. All Artel was unfair and to the point of resentment.

Then another henchman from behind opened his mouth in a determined voice. It was Kiaru.

“It would be a lie to say that it is not poison. Vivian played the trick.”

“It’s not. The throne of sin would never lie so openly.”

“Isn’t it the sin of envy? It is a sin to eat lies. It remains.”

It wasn’t that Artel was also suspicious of Vivian.

Vivian, the sin of envy. she hates everything He was a person who took pleasure in ruining things that seemed to work well.

But for now, I have no choice but to rely on those words.

“vampire. The same vampire said you need to see the status. Let’s start with that.”

“It’s a tweak to buy time. Seriously, where on earth is a vampire who is higher than Christine?”

“that…”

Artel wandering through her head, she immediately recalls something.

“uh…?”

one person.

There was only one. An entity equal to or higher than Christine.

◈

I pride myself on having a point with all the names in the banquet at least once.

Where would you have contacted? I also got a strong promise not to touch Christine.

Even if it’s just a verbal promise, it’s necessary. It’s much more reassuring than not even having such a promise.

Various goods, properties, and treasures in the demon realm were robbed, but what is it? These are assets that will no longer be needed for living in the human world anyway.

[ Main Scenario Turning Point ]

▶ Happy ending figures

▶ 33.3% → 66.6%

“Is this the best?”

‘But why can’t it be achieved?’

Christine’s coronation was only an hour away. I think I did everything I could, but the numbers don’t go up.

That was the moment.

“Jekiel. No, Jekyel…”

A voice contemplating whether or not to add you to the back. Well, apart from that, I heard a very urgent voice.

When I turned my head, Artel was there. Artel, who is also very impatient.

“What is it?”

“Are you okay for a while?”

“I am so busy.”

It’s a lie. As soon as he sneaks up saying he is busy, Artel’s eyes tremble greatly.

It means that they did not come to me for a simple matter, but because there was something that really had to be done without me.

“However.”

So I was sure

“Don’t make a special time for it. For a little while.”

The incident that you will face after chasing this guy is the key to filling the remaining percentage.
