The students stirred at Idea’s unexpected declaration.

― The instructors aren’t coming with us?

― Is that even possible?

― Then who are we supposed to listen to?

My skin tingled at the students’ anxiety.

I had a feeling that the likelihood that I had described Sytan’s invasion of the human world failing was being fulfilled.

Idea continued in a more serious voice than before.

“This is a test after all. We have not assigned you to assassinate high-ranking humans but rather targets that we believe are appropriate for your level. If we were to accompany you, it would not be a test, would it?”

And later, the instructors will have to prepare to open the gate so that you can return, so they can’t go.

Therefore,

“From now on, I will delegate all the authority I possess as an instructor to the class presidents of each class. All students must follow the class president’s orders as a priority.”

Swish-.

After finishing her words, Idea approached me and attached a badge to my chest.

A badge shaped like a plum blossom.

“Its a flower, which symbolizes Sytan. It has the flower language of ‘representative of the group.’”

I see.

This is a symbol.

A symbol that proves that I am their leader.

With this badge, they will be able to distinguish me even if I am wearing a mask.

And by adding the distinction of the class president position, it will make the students protect me as a priority.

‘Is that why you put the badge right in the center of my chest?’

The enemy will notice that the one wearing the badge is the leader and attack them.

Literally.

This was also a test.

‘I guess she means to see my leadership skills during this opportunity.’

The invasion of the human realm is not a simple terrorist activity.

It is clearly a part of the midterm exam.

She wants to see how the class presidents who have been entrusted with the authority of the instructors will avoid the attacks focused on them and command the students.

However, the students of Sytan are weak compared to the monsters in the Imperial Academy, so there won’t be any time to command them.

I didn’t bother to say that out loud.

I didn’t want to demoralize them before the battle.

That’s when it happened.

“Class president, please take this.”

Idea called out to me again and rummaged through her pocket.

Is there anything left to give?

A piece of paper that Idea took out of her arms.

When I looked closely, I could see that it was a map.

It was also a map of the area we were headed to.

“I heard from the principal that you can read maps. I hope this map will be helpful.”

“Yes, thank you.”

I bowed my head in greeting.

I already knew that ‘area’ like the back of my hand, but it wouldn’t hurt to receive it.

“Then, it’s time to leave.”

Idea muttered, looking worried, and then opened her mouth.

I don’t know why she’s making that kind of expression.

‘The woman who urged me to abandon unnecessary students without mercy……’

Now, I felt a sense of doubt at Idea’s appearance, as if she was worried.

That doubt only lasted a moment.

“I will open the Gate.”

Idea hardened her expression again and spoke in a cold voice.

At those words, I checked the things I had brought for this test.

‘My preparations are perfect.’

Perhaps even excessively so.

Now, all that remained was,

To go to the Human Realm.

Koo-goo-goo-goo-.

Like that, Idea and the instructors joined forces to activate the Gate.

An immeasurable amount of mana condensed and distorted the space.

And soon, the space began to split apart, leaving behind afterimages.

The afterimages began to fill with a purple hue, eventually forming a giant circle.

The Gate to the Human Realm had been fully opened.

“Then, good luck.”

Idea’s final greeting.

The students made determined expressions and headed towards the Gate.

To them, it was an unknown world, but to me, it was a world like hell.

We took a single step forward.

* * *

Not long after entering the interior of the Gate.

“Ughhh…”

Fron began to vomit.

Starting with her, the other students were unable to overcome their dizziness and vomited up food and stomach acid.

Watching them,

‘Ugh……’

I felt like I was going to vomit too.

Even the great Samuel had his mouth full as vomit rose to his throat.

The dizziness was incomparable to the interior of Sytan’s train.

The space was distorted and fluctuating, and it was difficult to adapt since we were experiencing it with our bare bodies.

I wiped the cold sweat running down my cheek with the back of my hand and shouted to the students.

“Everyone, there’s not much time left. The end of the passage is starting to come into view, so please hurry!”

The end was visible ahead.

If we didn’t hurry, we would be trapped in the convergence of space and lost in the labyrinth of dimensions.

If that happened, we wouldn’t be able to move to the designated coordinates and would likely end up somewhere completely different.

…Perhaps we would never be able to return to the Demon Realm.

I quickly looked back.

Swish-.

Before I knew it, the Gate was about to close.

“Hurry!”

I shouted anxiously and ran towards the exit with all my might.

The students also sensed the crisis and stopped vomiting and started running.

Finally, when everyone had passed through the exit.

Crash-.

The trembling gate completely disappeared.

We had managed to cross the gate just in the nick of time.

It was the moment when I was about to indulge in joy for a moment.

“……What.”

I looked up at the sky with trembling pupils.

A building appeared before my eyes.

No, can it be called a building?

What appeared before our eyes when we crossed the gate was,

A ‘castle’ floating in the sky.
