The Narrow-Eyed Villain of the Demon Academy
chapter-25-2

All of the Seven Deadly Sins defeated the Sword Saint!

As expected, they are on a different level from us...

The second test was over.

As Fron said, the students of the Seven Deadly Sins each showed their outstanding talents and produced overwhelming results.

Since they had finished the test so overwhelmingly in an instant, it was not easy to determine the ranking among the children of the Seven Deadly Sins.

Still, I know who the two strongest are, so I don't need to worry about the ranking.

Anyway.

With this, the entrance exam was over.

Instructor Ares instructed the students in the audience to come down.

As expected, the students who had given up on the fight out of fear of the Sword Saint were eliminated.

On the other hand, the students who had participated in the battle but failed to even touch the Sword Saint's hair seemed to have passed.

Ares opened his mouth to the students who were barely over a hundred and remained until the end.

"You all worked hard."

The students burst into tears at his words.

I couldn't tell if it was out of frustration for not being able to defeat the Sword Saint or joy that this hellish test was finally over.

But one thing is for sure.

"With this, you are all members of Sytan and official students."

Everyone smiled at Ares's next words.

"Don't be happy."

Ares poured cold water on the atmosphere.

"A path of hell will unfold before you. Once you enter Sytan, it will be useless to try to give up then."

Do the students understand the meaning behind those words?

That from now on, Sytan will drive them to their limits.

'Of course they do.'

There's no way they don't know why Sytan is teaching and developing them.

And yet, the students enter this place carrying their own pasts and circumstances.

It felt as if a terrible karma was weighing down on their shoulders like a rock.

Do I deserve to be here?

'I have to do it anyway.'

Even if I don't deserve to be here, there was no other choice.

...I decided to be a little shameless.

"Anyway."

Ares delivered a stern warning, then relaxed his expression and opened his mouth.

"Welcome to Sytan, you fearless bastards."

Ten minutes later.

Ares dismissed the students, telling them to meet again at the entrance ceremony in two days.

Except for eight of them.

"Why did he leave us behind?"

Rene, who had approached me, asked with a curious expression.

I seemed to know the reason, so I told her my guess.

"Probably to give us a reward. He said that those who passed with excellent grades would be allowed to enter the armory."

"I see."

Rene nodded and looked around intently.

I knew what she was going to ask without her saying anything.

"They are the children of the other Seven Deadly Sins families."

"I know."

Rene turned her head away.

'She definitely looked like she didn't know until just now...'

As I stared at Rene with cold eyes, she deliberately avoided my gaze.

As we were chatting, Ares approached us.

Ares scanned us and spoke with a serious expression.

"You all passed the entrance exam with excellent grades. Therefore, according to school policy, you will be given the opportunity to choose a weapon from the armory. Any questions?"

"Me!"

A boy raised his hand high. He was a student I remembered.

He was also a demon who played a major role in my work.

"Baltan, what's your question?"

"Can I bring a lot of weapons? It seems like Sytan's weapons would be really useful."

That was a greedy question.

I could sense the excitement in his voice.

Well, I guess that's inevitable.

'Lycan Baltan.'

He was a member of the Lycan family, which symbolized 'Envy'.

His greed and curiosity were strong, so he had a rather demanding and annoying personality.

"Denied. Each of you can only take one weapon from the armory."

Ares answered right away to Baltan's question since he was very curious and greedy.

"Why?"

"Having more weapons isn't necessarily better. It just increases the number of things you need to train with, making it difficult to focus on one."

"Aha."

Fortunately, Baltan quickly agreed.

The work proceeded quickly after that question.

Ares didn't fawn over the descendants of the Seven Deadly Sins.

He treated them as harshly and decisively as he did other students.

"I have finished explaining everything, so follow me. I will guide you to the armory."

So we quietly followed Ares.

Ares moved to the wall in the corner of the auditorium and cast a spell.

KuGUGUGU.

Then, with a loud noise, the wall split open and revealed its appearance.

There was a staircase leading to the basement inside the wall, and even though there was no sunlight, the bottom was clearly visible.

Ares pointed to the hole and said.

"Enter one by one. When you come out, I will give you a simple physical examination just in case."

The children nodded and Ares set the order.

"Let's choose weapons in the reverse order of the second test."

The order was set as Ares liked.

I thought about complaining, but I shook my head and dismissed it.

Anyway, there won't be anyone choosing the weapon I'm going to take.

"Okay, I'm first!"

"......Hurry up and get in."

Baltan, who took the test last, cheered and went down to the armory.

As I watched him, Rene approached me.

"Have you decided on a weapon?"

"I haven't decided yet because I don't know what's inside. Well, I think I'll choose artifacts."

"I'm going to choose artifacts too."

"You too?"

"Yeah, I have a weapon."

Rene said that as she shook her sword.

After all, there's no way Crete would have given her a cheap sword.

It would be better to get an artifact instead.

Wait a minute.

Then the other guys will try to get the artifact too.

......I won't let them take it.
