I Misunderstood the Date and Saved the Demon King

50. No, kids?

Investigation and announcement of great men of the Empire. The theme is the war hero Lethe.

After hearing the news from the leader, Michaela, the professor in charge tilted his head at first.

I didn’t question the person named Lethe. It’s just that great people have a subtly aura of people who have passed a little bit of time. It would be more convenient to do it with people who are not already of this world.

I wondered if it would be difficult for Lethe, who had been circulating about things until not too long ago.

However, the professor had to nod his head as he knew that the warriors had many points of contact with Lethe, and that the demon kings called Jo Won strongly wanted it.

I wanted to refuse the sight of demon lords coming to my lab as a group while trying to stop me.

The data investigation of the war hero ‘Lete’ started like that. And the warriors knew.

“No, I mean. You say you always have a habit of drinking water before going to bed?”

“I also have a habit of drinking water and going to the bathroom.”

“Don’t you know that you have a habit of biting your lips when you don’t like something?”

“… Seriously, I can’t draw.”

More than you can imagine, these demon lords are completely crazy about Lethe.

At first, I just thought it would be good to know where and how I fought, who I met, and what level I was as a ‘great man’ in the literal sense.

In fact, the information the warriors themselves knew and the data they investigated were like that.

But what about Lethe before he became a war hero? I don’t know anything about it, and even less is known. He doesn’t even know where he came from or where his hometown is.

Imperial historians and military science experts wanted to know about that part, but they are still alive. Even going to a person who is much younger than himself to ask for some information is an atmosphere where everyone refrains from drawing because it is strange.

Thanks to that, nothing was known about Lethe’s past.

‘Oh my God. That’s the first time we’re hearing that.’

‘Oops. Seniors. You have such a small habit! It’s amazing.’

‘El is good at drawing.’

Selapy, Haniel, and Meta. Whenever the demon kings talked about this and that, sometimes they laughed and sometimes their eyes twinkled as if they were curious.

“….”

And Michaela, the leader, was listening to the demon kings most passionately among the heroes. Even with a notebook and pen in hand.

‘This is, as a leader, to make the presentation better through more thorough organization! This is normal! Yes! By the way!’

The reality was that they comforted themselves by saying

That it was okay, and even encouraged them to write more diligently and listen more diligently.

“By the way. Senior, where is your hometown? People from the Empire say it’s definitely not.”

“Right. I was curious about that too Even for people in the Empire, women were too lenient about drinking and smoking. As if there was a problem with that.”

At some point, it became not a group assignment, but an interview about a war hero that warriors listen to from the devil.

But for that part, neither the hero nor the demon lord. No one raised any issues.

“We don’t know exactly. It’s because the old man hasn’t often talked about his hometown.”

“To be precise, he never gave me a definitive answer. However, there have been times when you have described your hometown.”

“What did you say? Didn’t you say that the world is full of carriages without horses?”

“… He said the sky can fly too.”

“Right. There was that too.”

On the contrary, they only squeezed out what they knew with all their heart and soul.

“Just hearing about it makes me think that it is a very far away place.”

“It is a carriage, but if there is no horse, is it a carriage? Shouldn’t it be just tea?”

“Oh. In fact, my uncle did that. They just called it tea.”

Where did the character Lethe come from? What was the beginning like? Starting with that topic.

There were also stories about how he lived before he became a war hero.

“My older brother was good at being dexterous. I just made something like this and it works right away.”

“Right. Do you know that you can’t use magic?”

“Eh? You said you couldn’t use magic?”

Haniel, who belonged to the Mage Tower, asked back with an expression of disbelief.

It has no choice but to do so, she has already heard the news. Lette came and shook the magic circle that Astaroth had broken! Then she said that she succeeded in restoring it to its original state at once.

Other wizards have done a rough restoration, but the consensus was that it would still take a few weeks to get it back to its previous state, but it was finished in less than a day.

By the way, that Lethe couldn’t use magic? Even if this doesn’t make sense, isn’t it too much?

“It sounds like a lie, but it is true. Master actually had no talent for magic.”

“… Scroll, often used.”

“Ex. You said you used a scroll?”

“Ahahahaha! What is it, Haniel? Isn’t that something you mages hate so much? It’s a disposable piece of paper that contains holy magic on a piece of parchment and blows it around.”

“Joe, be quiet. Selfie.”

“Come to think of it, in the past, Haniel, you didn’t like using scrolls either?!”

“Be quiet! Why are you taking out your old job!? Not now?!”

It was a selfie that teased Haniel hard saying that this is the chance. Why? She used to nag her quite a bit, telling her to stop drinking or smoking.

Of course, I didn’t do the basic posture as a hero, but I did it out of concern for my health.

“Wait, wait.”

Michaela, who had been diligently writing down all the conversations so far, hurriedly raised her hand.

“If you haven’t been able to use magic, what about now? Are you still the same now?”

“Yes. I’m still not familiar with magic. My uncle.”

“By the way, what about repairing the magic circle, and what kind of magic was shown during the war….”

“Oh, you mean that? My brother just memorized the entire formula and slammed the magic circuit into his body. That’s why it’s like taking out the magic stored in your body as a medium and using it.”

This is a very surprising discovery. Haniel, Sellafi, and Michaela too. That war hero, Lethe. During the war, he was very amazed at the fact that the god of death, who literally turned the demons into well-minced meat, could not use magic.

Wouldn’t the professors be shocked if this was put into a presentation? Maybe you like it because you found a new research topic.

Even if you can’t use magic, or if you’re not familiar with mana, you can just punch it into the body. Magic is not the exclusive property of wizards. Anyone can do it if they try! What like this?

“But you mean you couldn’t do that before? That’s why the uncle once told us subtly. Can you teach me some magic?”

“Huh? Didn’t everyone get their magic from you?”

“Theory was overwhelming us. The same goes for the concept of imagery. However, in practice, magic did not work at all. If they were so frustrated, they would have asked us for help.”

“Mmm.”

Michaela, who had written that far, suddenly let out her drool and tapped her lips with her pen.

“Hey, Astaroth.”

“Ashu!”

“… Ashu. I’d rather not post this. I don’t like having flaws about the war hero, and if I tried to learn something from the demon king more than anything, I’m sure there will be people who look at this badly again.”

Then, the demon lords this time, eh? And looked at Michaela. It was something she hadn’t even thought of.

I can’t imagine that other people, even the warriors, would try to hide the truth.

“Can I? Shouldn’t a hero only speak the truth?”

“I don’t want to talk about Sir Lethe’s shortcomings. Maybe Ashu wants that?”

“No way! I also want to never, never talk about my uncle’s flaws! But you guys were curious, and the uncle never told me not to say that!”

At Astaroth’s words, Haniel tilted her head.

“Hey, Ashu. Seniors never told me not to talk, but wouldn’t that necessarily mean that I could talk?”

“… Is it?”

I think so. Even having a conversation like this between us right now might not be very pleasant from Lethe’s point of view.

*

Finally, the day when the group assignments were announced. When a group of four heroes and four demon lords, a uniquely organized group, made an even more unusual presentation with Lete as the theme.

“Hmm?”

“Whoa.”

Professors who came to play for a while burned the will of scholars in various areas.

For one thing, I was impressed by the fact that even if it was impossible to use magic, there was a practical record that it was possible to just hit all the formulas and circuits into the body.

The other is that the war hero of the empire, which was close to perfection, actually had a very clumsy and a little immature period.

And.

“You damn thing! What were you talking about?!”

All of his dark history. For example, I bought a magic scroll and bought it, and I was told that eating something would improve the concentration of magic, so I ate it and suffered for three days and nights.

As things like that spread throughout the academy, Lette had no choice but to scream at the demon lord, the hero, and all of them.
