The Misfit of Demon King Academy (WN)
chapter-35-1

“Right. Now that Ray-kuns group has been decided I’ll begin the class.”

Emilia’s in high spirits, no doubt due to Ray becoming a group leader.

“We’ll be performing grand sword training today and since this is practical training we’ll be moving to the arena. Since a special lecturer is here please don’t be rude.”

All the students stand up and leave for the 2nd training ground.

“Arnos.”

Misha calls out to me as I start walking

“What’s up?”

“Do you know Ray?”

She’s asking something strange.

“No. Does it seem that way?”

Misha nods

“Looked like you were having fun.”

I see.

“Well, he’s an interesting guy.”

Do I know him?

It wasn’t only me who reincarnated. Some of my subordinates did as well. I wonder if that guy is one of them?

I say reincarnation but there’s various levels. Depending on the level of the source magic, it’s not uncommon for the memories and magic power to be overwritten, however, something will always be remembered somewhere in the heart.

“It’s possible we met 2000 years ago.”

“Nee. If we don’t hurry up class will start without us.”

Sasha calls out to us from the doorway.

“Shall we go?”

“Nn.”

Along with Misha I start walking again.

When we enter the arena the students are standing in a circle around something.

Getting closer I see it’s Emilia and two other mazoku.

One is a huge person, double the height of a normal person with dark skin, thick arms and legs knotted with muscles and sporting a beard.

The other person is of normal height with long black hair and sharp eyes.

“Now then, the grand demon sword training will be conducted by 2 of the old seven demon emperors. Gaius Anzem-sama and Idol Anzeo-sama.”

The huge one is Anzem and long hair is Idol.

Their appearances are certainly the same as 2 mazoku that I made and their magical wavelengths are also similar, however, their origins and bodies may have been taken over by fusion magic as well.

I didn’t think 2 of them would come.

“Gaius-sama, Idol-sama, thank you for today.”

After bowing her head, Emilia went over to a corner so as not to disturb us.

“Hmm. Well then. Instead of a greeting shall we do something different?”

A deep voice is emitted.

Gaius raises his hand overhead and dozens of magic circles form.

“Same amount as the number of students.” Misha mutters next to me

“Looks like it.”

Magic gathers and sword blades appear from the centre of the formations.

“Wh…wha…..it’s demon swords…….”

“What’s with this absurd magic power……..? Why don’t they fall…..?”

While looking up the students edge back in fear from the demon swords overhead.

“Ooops. Stop moving little chicks.”

The deep voice of Gaius echoes and the students stop while shaking.

“That’s it. Be good and stay still. If you move you die.”

Gaius makes a fist and swings it down with all his might.

“NOUUUUUUUU!!!”

At the sound of his harsh voice demon swords pour down in a shower from the magic formations.

“UWAAAAAAA!!”

“KYAAAAAAAAA!!”

Screams come from many places in the arena but all the students were unhurt.

Demon swords pierced the ground at their feet.

“Well then. Take the sword at your feet and try it out.”

The students fearfully laid their hands on the swords.

“Eh? It won’t come out……”

“This is…….my magic powers being absorbed……..!”

“Uwaaaa! I can’t remove my hand! Help meeeeee!!”

Screams ring out again from all over.

“Haahaahaa. Don’t yell little chicks. That’s what a demon sword is. A true demon sword chooses its user. If you don’t show power appropriate to the demon sword you will have a bitter experience. Force your magic power in and force it to yield. If you half-ass it you might die.”

Fumu. They don’t seem to have been made with magic. They all appear to be the real thing.

I ascertained the wavelength of magic power in an instant and could choose a demon sword appropriate for all the students here if I wanted.

“As everybody knows the Deruzogedo demon sword tournament will be held soon. It’s a tournament to decide Deiruheido’s best swordsman and participants from all over Deiruheido will gather. Unlike you chicks, everyone will be outstanding. You have to bring your own sword and if you don’t have one then there’s no point participating.”

Gaius raises his voice to encourage the students.

“However, if you want to show off in the tournament then take out the sword! If you can do it then I’ll give it to you.”

I look over and Sasha is trying with all her might to pull out the sword but she’s not getting anywhere.

“Ha. What’s this Sasha? Can’t you pull it out?”

“………Noisy. Shut up………”

Misha is also trying to pull out her sword but it’s not going well either.

“Weak with swords.” Misha mutters.

Well, irrelevant of magic there’s strong and weak points.

<Ice Lotus Leaf Ring> and <Phoenix’s Vestment> are exceptional tools far superior to these swords and they are able to wear them no problem.

That reminds me, Shin was able to handle any demon sword but was absolutely useless with any other magic tool, however, since he solved everything with his sword he perfected his swordsmanship at least.

“……Arnos hasn’t even tried to touch his sword. Surely……can’t you pull it out?”

“Ku…kukuku, hahahahah. That’s a great joke Sasha.”

I look at the demon sword in front of me and in the next moment it showed it’s obedience to me by rising out of the ground by itself and moving to me.

“….Oi, look. Arnos pulled the sword out without even touching it…….”

“…..Damn it. How? I feel like I’ll lose just by touching it…….. Is that guy a monster…….?”

I grab the floating demon sword with my hand
