“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?
[Summoner Academia]
A space where countless summoners from all over the world can learn how to use summons, as well as various knowledge and studies.
And, of course, the races are as diverse as they receive students from all over the world.
And, of course, humans are also included in this race.
“When did you start accepting inferior elves here? Did you forget that this is a VIP room? Elves?”
Like I’m noble. A drill-haired woman who appears with a gait as if to express herself, and a young man in a black suit standing behind her.
Chew. The woman, who covered her mouth with a fan, glared at us with half-moon eyes floating on top of the fan.
“Does this academy not have time for character education? Every time I get a chance, inferior elves, inferior elves, the level of personality makes no sense.”
“uh… … There is etiquette and morality class every Wednesday in the 2nd period, but… … .”
“Rosé.”
“yes?”
“Shut up.”
“yes… … .”
“What are you?!”
The woman’s gaze moves to me. It wasn’t a good look.
“You haven’t revealed who you are, so why should I?”
The woman who heard me swallowed a laugh.
“under! I ate one.”
widely! A woman folds her fan and bows down with an aristocratic gesture.
She spoke in a soft voice, unlike her first harsh voice.
“The girl is called Parfait Sagari, who lives in the family of Count Sagari. And next to it is my summoned beast, Purpur. He is number 34 out of 72 demons and the Count of Hell.”
Purpur bows his head politely when his name is called.
The face of Parfe Sagari, who called her summoned beast one of the 72 demons, was full of pride.
From what I remember, it must have been the guy I used to play with between R and SR. Well, it could be high here.
“Now, since we introduced ourselves, can we listen to your introduction?”
And Parfait Sagari, who returns with a rough look.
I said in a calm voice.
“It’s Gregory Jones.”
Then, with a glance, he looked at Purpur and continued.
“He is the grand duke of the Demon Realm.”
widely. With that, the fan that Parfait Sagari was holding fell.
“… … yes?”
“Do you have bad ears? He was called the Grand Duke of the Demon Realm. With a position like this, it wouldn’t matter if we ate here, right?”
“yes? Now, wait! Are you the Grand Duke of the Demon Realm? No, that doesn’t make sense! Are you the grand duke of the Demon Realm?! There’s no way a demon world grand duke would come to such an inferior elf—”
“Watch your mouth. He is my summoner.”
“… … Oh, anyway! You can’t be the Grand Duke! Purpur! Is there a man like that among the grand dukes of the Demon Realm?”
Parfait turned his head and asked Purpur. Purpur said in a sweet voice.
“I was well aware that there were several grand dukes in the Pandemonium besides the famous ones.”
I bet Because the developer also has to leave room to continue releasing cards.
“However, with my limited knowledge, I don’t know.”
huh? Do you want to see this kid?
I called his name in a cold voice.
“Purpur.”
“yes.”
“Demon of thunder and lightning, number 34 of Solomon’s demons, Count of Hell and commander of 26 legions.”
wriggling And Purpur’s eyes moved.
“Are you really trying to go against my heart?”
It’s really embarrassing. I don’t know if this was my original feeling or Gregory Jones’ feeling, but I was very offended.
About the dare to stand up to the grand duke, who is nothing but a count in the demon realm.
And about a guy whose SR is the end at the highest, going against my planting aiming for 10 stars.
“I have no intention of offending you. It’s just that I’m cautious because someone I’m seeing for the first time calls me Grand Duke.”
You won’t acknowledge me as a grand duke until the end.
“Prove it by force. Is this what you mean?”
“What else could the devil have?”
Hearing Purpur’s words, I burst into laughter.
Because it’s right? No, because it’s ridiculous.
“Challenge anytime.”
“It is an honour.”
what is glory It’s nasty to say that it’s not a devil.
I turned around and said.
“Rosé. Have a meal.”
“oh! four!”
After ordering the food each person wanted from the chef and sitting down, Rosé cautiously opened her mouth.
“Hey, Gregory… … . Are you okay? To others, it may have looked like avoiding a fight.”
Did you analyze the situation from your own point of view? Certainly, it could have looked that way, as Rosé had said.
That’s what normal students see.
“I fully agree with your thoughts, but Rosé, nobles are a little different.”
“yes? is that so?”
Perhaps because of [Attribute: Noble], I knew right away what to do about things like this.
“Saying to fight first is tantamount to proving that you are a subordinate. Because the superior is the one who takes the duel, not the one who bet it.”
Violence directed downward is just violence wrapped in the word duel. Such violence only provoked a backlash from others.
“So wait. He will definitely challenge us to a duel.”
“yes?! Surely?!”
“He has no choice but to do that.”
As I said that, I remembered the setting for R-rank Purpur.
[Although Purpur always has a smiling face, the demon blood in his body is always eager to fight.]
What about settings like that? If you wait, it will come.
“The food is out.”
The server put tomato pasta, steak, and red wine on the table.
“By the way, can you eat meat like that in the morning?”
“yes! This is the first time I’ve had such luxurious meat!”
Oh, he was having a hard time.
“If you eat this and hit the bread after dinner, it’s key~!”
“… … Eat a lot.”
You’re really excited.

“Purpur, the man I saw earlier. What do you think?”
A privacy room located in the VIP room. Inside, Parfait Sagari and Purpur are talking.
“To be honest, he is a dangerous man.”
Hearing Purpur’s words, Parfait’s eyes widened.
“Then are you saying what the man said is true?”
“I don’t know. Most of the Grand Dukes of the Demon Realm do not come out of their own territory.”
After saying that, Purpur raises the corner of his mouth.
“Well, wouldn’t it be okay to stick around?”
“yes? Purpur, are you really going to fight that man?”
“yes. That man seems to have something.”
Saying that, Purpur picked up the steak placed in front of him.
Took. Took. Blood drips.

“schedule.”
“yes! Today’s timetable is basic liberal arts in the 1st and 2nd periods, and continental history in the 3rd period. 4th period is an introduction to auxiliary magic, 5th period is an introduction to summoning, and 6th and 7th periods are sparring!”
“It’s empty all morning today.”
“yes! that’s right! Are you taking classes together——”
“Don’t go anywhere.”
“yes?”
“I have business to do.”
“is that so… … . all right… … .”
Rosé, who quickly became mushy, made a sad expression on her face.
food. I laughed.
“I’ll be back soon, so please listen carefully to the class.”
“… … yes ah! You must carry your student ID with you! It’s the only thing that can prove Gregory’s identity.”
“do not worry.”
After that, I went out of the academy.
Outside of the academy, it was my first time going out after coming to this world, so I felt my heart pounding for some reason.
“Go carefully. Summons.”
“thanks.”
Leaving behind the academy guards, I started walking aimlessly in the direction the guards told me.
Since the city was said to be 10 minutes away by carriage, it would take an hour or two on foot, but I was no ordinary person.
[Skill: Explosive Speed]
If you use the skill, you can move at the same speed as a horse.
The summoner’s city arrived like that. It was a city called [Sumonia].
“Is it because the game shows it as an aerial view? It is very different from seeing it in person.”
A city in a fantasy world. Numerous carriages and crowds were roaming the streets.
“It’s slightly different, but the road will be the same.”
[Sumonia] is indeed the main city of [Summoner Academia].
The length was at a level that even ordinary users could memorize.
After passing through the main roads, alleys and small shops, we arrived at a small shop called [Flies and Goats].
When I open the wooden door and enter, I hear a rattle bell. Eyes quickly turned to me.
As we walked to the counter without saying anything, the bartender who was washing the cups opened his mouth.
“Look for something.”
“With goat milk mixed with absinthe and set on fire.”
“… … Nice to meet you.”
“Do you manage even that?”
“… … Chet. Go out the back door and enter the third room.”
A series of secret situations. This level of passwords and security was indispensable.
Because they were a group of black magicians who worshiped the devil.
After following the bartender’s words, I went out through the back door and entered the third door, where I saw a human figure behind a black tent.
“So, why did our devil come to visit this old man?”
A voice that seems to have crushed the sound itself. It was a voice that was even mysterious.
It’s all like a clumsy play, though.
“Old man, don’t say a damn thing and get rid of this mat. Paimon.”
“Paimon? Ho-oh, are you saying that you came to know my identity?”
As I removed the tent blocking my way with my hands, I saw a silver-haired little boy sitting with a fungus bag.
“Oh my gosh, who is this? Gregory Jones! Aren’t you my old friend, the Grand Duke of the Demon Realm, who rules over insects with Baalzebub, and rules all the underworld! Well, if it is you, you are qualified to sit down with me.”
have a seat
Said Paimon I sat down in front of her and stared at him.
same. It’s the same. An SSR grade card that is quite rare even in the game and can be used in mainstream decks. It looks the same as [Paimon].
It was truly mysterious that a person who had only seen illustrations would actually appear like this.
“How about you stop staring? If you look at me with such intense eyes, even this old man would be ashamed.”
“You talk nonsense.”
I was momentarily ashamed, but I leaned back against the backrest, replying like Gregory Jones.
“ha ha ha! Don’t say it so coldly, come on. Would you like a drink? There was something I was going to offer when a special guest came.”
When Paimon snapped his fingers, the wine and glasses that were displayed on the wall flew out and were placed in front of me.
Squeeze. With a noise, the wine fills the glass. I briefly bowed my head to express my gratitude, then quenched my throat.
“hmm? It is precious.”
I don’t even know the name, but judging from the reaction of this tongue, it seemed to be quite high-end.
“Ah, the warlocks here and there gave it as a price.”
Then he takes a sip and looks at me.
So, what did you come for? with the eyes of
“I am trying to return to the demon realm. I wish I could help.”
“huh?”
Paimon’s eyes, which had been looking at me with deep eyes, became blurry for a moment.
It’s like ‘What did this baby just said?’ is the expression
“I have to say it one more time to understand. I’m going to ask you for help because I have something to stop by.”
widely! and the glass is placed on the table.
“Now, wait a minute. Hey, are you telling me that you can’t return to the Demon Realm on your own right now?”
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“I was summoned by an elf.”
“You think that makes sense?!”
“That elf is the descendant of the hero.”
“That makes sense.”
Why is the conversation like this?
Thinking about that, I sighed and continued.
“That’s why my current power is limited and I can’t go back to the Demon Realm on my own. I want you to help.”
“okay? Hmmm? I mean… … .”
Paimon, who was holding a glass in his right hand, began to flick his left fingers on the table.
scene drawn in the illustration. This meant that Paimon had begun calculating profit and loss.
“hmm. It’s good, but there is a condition.”
“Yeah, I thought you would say that. What are the conditions?”
Paimon grumbled after hearing my words. laughed
“once.”
When I was so lucky, Paimon continued to speak.
“Please do me a favor just once. how about Isn’t this a good price for a price?”
When Paimon said that, his face was filled with wickedness, excitement, and joy.
