I Became the Demon Grand Duke in the Academy

4 – Akabug – 4

On the way back to the dormitory after finishing all the classes, we were originally going to enter Rosé’s room, but were blocked by the supervisor.

“uh… … Is this my room?”

“Not anymore.”

The housekeeper who said that while raising his glasses. Soon after, the headmaster handed a card to Rosé and said.

“The 13th floor. From today, this is the place where Roger and the summoned beast, Gregory Jones, will stay.”

Rosé’s eyes widened after hearing the supervisor’s words.

“yes? The thirteenth floor?”

“yes. All personal belongings in the room have been moved, so you only need to go.”

“Gregory! It’s on the 13th floor! 13th floor! The 13th floor is only used by royalty and those with high-ranking summons!”

Oh, did the academy come out like this?

The system of the summoner academy where the room is different depending on the summoner’s race and title.

“Don’t get excited, Rosé. It is natural.”

That’s what I said, but actually I felt good too. Who wouldn’t like a nice room?

It seemed that my title of [Grand Duke] made me change rooms.

“Oh, and Nizazel from the administration office said she would wait for the two of you in a room on the thirteenth floor.”

Waiting in the room where we have to move? Do you have anything to say?

“i get it. Rose, let’s go.”

“yes!”

The elevator was moved from the original 2nd floor to the 13th floor.

It was a really convenient worldview, a fantasy world, but a world where magic engineering was mentioned and even science existed.

“Ji, is it really true that we’re staying here?”

“Don’t be so surprised. It’s natural for me.”

Originally, it wasn’t something I would say when I lived in a one-room apartment, but what is it? The grand duke in my head told me to say this.

When I opened the door and entered, I saw Nizazel sitting in a chair waiting for us.

“You are here.”

“It’s funny how you’re a guest entering a room that even the landlord hasn’t entered yet.”

After I said that, I sat across from Nizazel with Rosé.

But why are you staring at me?

“Archduke Gregory Jones?”

Ah, you call my name in a terrifying voice.

“Why are you calling?”

“Archduke Gregory Jones must have written that as a grandduke on the application form.”

“right.”

“Among our faculty members, there was someone who dealt with demons, so I asked. Do you know Archduke Gregory?”

“What do you mean by that?”

Why is this story suddenly appearing here?

“The devil said that there are currently three archdukes in Hell, and none of them is named Gregory Jones.”

Oh, does it come out like that?

food. and laughter came out.

“What is funny?”

“I can only laugh.”

Ah, Nizazel, the NPC that appeared from the main story. But he still knows less about this world than I do.

“The devil you asked about is probably a little devil who didn’t even rank.”

“Is that so?”

I felt a thirst in my throat from talking so much. Coincidentally, there was a mini bar in the living room, so I took out a bottle that looked roughly antique and poured it into a glass to drink.

um, not bad

“The name of the Grand Duke is not light.”

That is the setting of this summoner academy. There are a total of 4 Grand Dukes of Hell that I know of. Of these, only three are known.

“How wide do you think the Demon Realm is? What land do I manage? Do you think that demon knows all of the Demon Realms?”

“No, that… … !”

“What, there is no evidence? Wasn’t there at least something wrong with the papers?”

“What kind of enchantment you used——!”

“Are you admitting that the Academy’s security is only about that?”

Upon hearing my words, Nizazel’s expression turned to bewilderment.

“If you want to find evidence like that, find it yourself. I don’t see the need for me to find it. Isn’t everything you say just speculation?”

The evidence is clear to me. Same for Rose.

This system window that comes to mind when you shout the status window right away.

[The Grand Duke of Pandemonium, Gregory Jones]

[☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆]

This window, the world itself, can never lie.

“Ask the high-ranking devil or something. As I said just now, all I had to prove was the paperwork.”

It was a congratulatory order. Just get out of this room.

Upon hearing my words, Nizazel jumped up from her seat and walked toward the front door.

And before leaving, Nizazel suddenly turned around and shouted.

“After checking the results, if you are lying, I will not stand still!”

“Sure.”

thud! and Nizazel left the room, closing the door wide.

I leisurely put my glass on the table and sat across from the rosé.

“I… … Mr. Gregory, Ms. Nizazel, isn’t like that. Take care of me who was always bullied… … .”

“Know.”

Nizazel must have known that Rosé is a descendant of the hero.

Maybe in Nizazel’s eyes, Rosé would look like her nephew.

“By the way, isn’t this the time for you to worry about Nizazel?”

“yes?! Me, me?”

Rosé is taken aback when her story suddenly comes out. I looked at her and grinned.

“It is a special training. I’ll make you a proper summoner by tomorrow.”

* * *

“good. Are you ready?”

“… yes I am fully prepared!”

“good night. Let’s hold on a little this time.”

“yes!”

At the same time as the roaring answer, Rose raised her head and stared straight at me.

“Aww! Ugh! Kyaaah!”

“Isn’t that overdoing it?”

“but… … Gregory-sama looks so scary… … Big!”

“But you can’t fight with your eyes closed forever.”

I said that and let out a sigh.

“That’s what Gregory-sama said, but… … No more!”

“Yeah, you lasted quite a while this time.”

I said so and released the transformation form. returned to human form.

“I won’t faint anymore.”

“yes! that’s right. Looking at it, I think there is something cute about it… … It’s not good. till now.”

Certainly, it seemed impossible for me to find anything cute in cockroaches.

“It has improved a lot though. Let’s do that for today.”

“no. As a summoner, it is natural.”

I wanted to say that such a guy fainted from the first meeting, but I held back.

“after… … It was so hard. Can I smoke for a while?”

“smoking?”

Did the elf smoke too? Than no, isn’t this guy a student?

When Rose saw my face, ahahahaha! and laughs awkwardly

“cigarette… … Rather, it should be medicine.”

Saying so, what she took out of the holster on her thigh was a pipe with a lotus flower carved into it, beautiful enough to be mistaken for an art piece.

“Actually, they say that my ancestors are of mixed blood, so there is something like a residual disease. That’s why I’m taking the medicine sent from my hometown like this.”

Saying so, he took out a bag of medicinal herbs in a plastic bag.

Wait, that looks dangerous.

“… … It looks a bit dangerous.”

No, no matter who sees it, that’s it.

Rosé waving her hands as if she saw my expression

“Wait! Why are you looking at me like that? It’s nothing strange at all, it’s an herb. medicinal herbs! really… … .”

After saying that, with a gloomy expression, Rose put herbs in the pipe to marinate. Soon, he uses magic to make his fingers light up and then lights the pipe.

“Pooh! You see! It doesn’t even smell weird, does it?”

“Hmm, can I smoke indoors?”

“It’s medicinal, so there’s no problem. It doesn’t even smell that bad.”

Paha~ and white smoke came out of Rosé’s mouth.

The scents felt were the faint scent of herbs and strong flowers, and the smell of weak medicinal materials.

Certainly, it didn’t seem like a bad thing.

“If you don’t spread it on, it gets pretty dangerous as you start to get sick like you have a cold.”

Puffy. Rose sucking a pipe. Soon, Rosé’s face hardened as she looked into the mirror.

“Ahh!! The dye has fallen out again!”

Saying so and looking at the crown of the head of the person himself. If you look closely, you can see that the root part has been dyed black.

“What is that head?”

Dark-rooted elves? Wait, dye? What is dye?

“You… was that blonde dyed?”

The innocent-looking elf summoner was a bully who dyed his hair blonde and even smoked cigarettes.

“Couldn’t you have piercings or tattoos somewhere?”

“Yes? Uh, no! There’s no such thing! How the hell do you see people?!”

“A blonde-dyed weed elf.”

“That’s too much!”

Rosé, who cried out like that, cried.

“It’s like mixed blood with other races. Traits of both races are inherited. I’ve had black hair since I was born, probably because of the genes of my human ancestors. That’s why I always dye my hair.”

Black-haired elves are strange. Rose said with a smile.

Rosé, who had smoked all the cigarettes and turned the pipe empty, opened the window wide and said.

“Okay~ I took my medicine and moved my room, so now I have to pack my stuff!”

“Then I will go back.”

“yes?”

Rosé turned her head and looked at me.

“what? Are you going to make me do something?”

“Oh no! It’s not like that!”

The corner of her mouth went up at Rosé’s reaction.

“If you’re bored, don’t let me come out. Where is my room?”

“uh… … Is it good?”

“Then let’s use that room.”

I said that and pointed to the second largest room.

After canceling the summons anyway, the room was not very important to me as I had a familiar space.

“Take care of your belongings. Please cancel the summons.”

“yes… … .”

Leaving the gloomy Rose behind, I returned to the studio.

After all, familiar places are best.

I quickly sat down on my computer chair and looked for the Summoner Academy set-up files I had.

“The black-haired elf… … party… … Where have you seen it?”

If I, a deceased person, are familiar with it, then it must exist somewhere.

It was a set of hundreds of pages, but I slowly read through the set.

“… … found.”

[About half-elves of mixed race of humans and elves]

item with the title. I quickly read through what was written in it.

* * *

Around the time I was sleeping in a studio room. A ding-dong sound came from the doorbell.

“Is it morning already?”

Looking at the TV screen, I saw Rosé looking in the mirror, all ready to go to the academy.

I look at myself in the full-length mirror in the room. I had just woken up and was speechless.

I walked over to the intercom, pressed the mic button, and spoke.

“I’ll let you go when you’re ready.”

[Wow?! what just?! ear, is it a ghost? If it’s a ghost, come out immediately!]

Still a dumb reaction. I said with a sigh.

“It’s Gregory.”

[Ah, Mr. Gregory? Can you talk inside?]

“If it’s a summoned beast, you can probably do anything.”

Even in the game, most of the summons were able to communicate with the summoner even after the summon was released.

[okay! I’m learning another one. I called with about 30 minutes left until morning time.]

Breakfast at the academy? Certainly, I was curious to see how it would turn out.

“i get it. Get ready right away and move on.”

[yes!]

Preparation did not take as long as expected.

“transform”

transform into a cockroach.

“transform.”

And when it comes back to its human form, it returns to its perfect original form.

“It is also convenient.”

Still, sometimes, I tend to take a shower. Because there’s nothing like a shower when you need a change of mood.

When I came out in response to the summons, Rosé greeted me with a bright face.

“Good morning! Gregory!”

“Okay, where is the restaurant?”

“yes! It is an annex restaurant building on the first floor.”

“egg plant.”

“yes!”

Take the elevator and move your steps to the restaurant building.

I saw many students heading to the cafeteria around me.

Upon entering the building, I saw a long line.

“The facilities are pretty good.”

It’s like watching a modern buffet. Food was placed on each long table, and it seemed that students ate freely.

“yes! You can line up there, sit in a comfortable seat, and eat! I usually ate alone! Now, Gregory-sama is with me!”

Did you always eat alone?

I felt sorry for Rose for no reason.

“Gregory! Here!”

Rose, who quickly stood in line, called me. I shook my head and said.

“We are over there.”

“… … yes?”

the tip of my finger.

It was an independent space marked [VIP ROOM].

“Gregory? We can’t go there… … ah! We now live on the 13th floor!”

“okay.”

The 13th floor is for VIPs. We were qualified enough to go there.

Because I’m a grand duke

“I… … I am very moved. The fact that I will go to the 13th floor… … I thought I would eat there… … I couldn’t have imagined it.”

Rosé says so with tears in her eyes. getting more and more heartbroken

“Get used to it. These are things that you, my summoner, should enjoy.”

“yes!”

[VIP ROOM]

It was truly a place worthy of its name.

Chefs located there were taking orders from students and cooking on the spot, while other students were waiting for staff to bring their food.

“Go over there and sit down.”

“yes!”

When you sit in an empty seat and wait for the staff to come to take your order───

“When did you start accepting inferior elves here?”

Some other pups started to fight.

Why are you here at this academy?
