Surviving as a Villain at the Academy

15 – Dancing with Fairies. (7)

I can feel the fishy smell of blood. Asti tried to forget the bloody smell that was washing over her neck.

Her corruption makes her a high-ranking demon, and punishment from her heaven is given to her. She could get used to it, but she couldn’t get rid of the unpleasant smell that spread throughout her mouth.

In fact, she hoped that the way she ate her emotions would not become vampiric. She’s not a low-level vampire, so why on earth would he have to suck her blood?

But the Almighty God made the act she hated most into her daily life.

‘As expected, I don’t like it.’

The reason she gave Prah a taste for nothing and acted as if she liked her blood-sucking behavior itself was to avoid giving him another excuse.

Regardless of her dislike of eating, she could only survive by sucking someone’s blood, and this was used as an excuse to block Prah from not giving her his feelings in return.

As soon as her sly contractor found out that she hated blood, it was obvious that she would say that since she hates blood sucking anyway, why not just give her enough to not kill her?

But that wasn’t what she wanted. Her act of vampirism itself was an absolutely terrible act for her, but the result was the reason for her existence to live.

She is a devil who loves humans. The reason she became her demon was because she felt dissatisfied with the situation, which prevented her from intervening on earth more than necessary.

She was fascinated by the sight of the weakest creature created by God growing rapidly through emotions and knowledge.

In short, human emotions, her staple food, were what she loved the most.

It is impossible to kick the opportunity to obtain such things on a regular basis.

In fact, she didn’t need to deal with her emotions right now. Not only was she not a weak demon who would struggle even if she starved for just a month, but her magical power rivaled that of even high-ranking demons.

But why did she bother to show her feelings to Prah? The reason was simple.

Because I wanted to know a little more about the person named Prah. It’s not because she’s been on contract for a long time. Her presence alone in Prach was a curiosity to her.

How do you know the true name of a high-ranking devil? Apart from that, he knew most things that ordinary people would not know.

I couldn’t look into his memories, but I could at least know what kind of person he was. Because emotions reveal more than you think.

Once the unpleasant, bloody smell that fills her mouth now goes away, the happiest time for her will come.

The time when a wave of emotion felt by an individual sweeps through her entire body. Time to learn a little more about that individual.

But what she faced was not a very happy time.

The feeling as if she had entered an abyss pressed down on her whole body.

No words came out. Her body stiffened as she bit Prah’s neck.

‘What is it?’

The first thing I encountered was a wave of fear. A fear that even she, a high-ranking demon, could not resist, tightened her entire body. She couldn’t even move.

Is this a fear that an individual can have? What on earth is he facing?

The doubts quickly disappeared. Because the fear of Prah that she was currently facing made it impossible for her to even think about anything else.

I can’t breathe.

And in the next moment, she was inside Prah…… I saw a certain sight.

She somehow managed to shake off the fear that was suffocating her and tried to understand this ridiculous situation. Originally, she only ate emotions, but couldn’t see anyone’s memories…… How on earth did this happen?

The world was red.

All that is before my eyes is trial and blood. It is an absolutely terrifying sight.

Although she was said to be a devil, it was an unfamiliar sight to her as she had never slaughtered humans at will or treated them like slaves.

From noble mtl dot com

It may be a familiar sight to other demons, but she, who fell from heaven and became a demon in the first place, was not familiar with this sight. Her vision was so dizzy that she felt nauseous.

There, she saw demons and angels that were familiar to her. Humans simply sadly died in their fight.

You can see the eyes of a person pierced by an angel’s spear.

You can see a person whose body has been torn by the devil’s claws.

Such things happened not infrequently. Humans tried to resist somehow, but they could not.

Why on earth do I see this scene after reading Prah’s emotions? I couldn’t figure it out.

No matter where you look, there are only scary sights. It was a world where someone’s death could happen all too easily. Prah’s fear was keenly felt.

Asti was so confused. Is this just an illusion? What on earth? What is it that allows him to see this kind of scene?

“What’s wrong?”

The sight she saw disappeared in an instant and Asti saw Prah’s neck with a small hole in it before her eyes.

‘What was the scene just now?’

Her confusion washed over her. Prah. Is he really just a human being? Such doubts coiled in her chest.

“Have you eaten everything? Then it happens.”

She lifted her body from where she had rested and looked up to see Prah’s face caressing her neck.

‘What on earth are you?’

A question that she couldn’t bear to ask almost came out of her mouth, but she held it back. Because I felt like I shouldn’t have asked something.

* * *

Asti’s reaction was strange. She looked at me as if she were seeing something unfamiliar. Was my fear that strong?

“What’s wrong?”

When I asked about her confusion, she slowly shook her head.

“It’s nothing. “It’s just that your emotions were so big that it was a little overwhelming.”

“The emotions were too big?”

“I don’t know how you live with such fear.”

The strangely submissive attitude is strange. How on earth did he feel the way I felt?

“Anyway, since my stomach is full, I’ll do everything as planned tomorrow.”

“Yes.”

It was a strangely questionable attitude, but she looked at me with something inexplicable in her eyes.

“I’m tired. Can I sleep now?”

“Once your stomach is full, shouldn’t you feel a little less tired?”

“I eat my emotions. Not eating food. Of course, now that I’ve felt your emotions, I feel full, but I also feel tired. “I need to get some sleep.”

It was that kind of system. He is an amazing guy in many ways. But. This guy went from an angel to a devil in the first place…… I can’t help but be amazed.

“…… Okay. “Rest.”

I came out to visit her. The decision is tomorrow. I hope there are no special variables.

* * *

To conclude, the first plan was completely ruined. Ruslanne only glared at me with a subtle look, but she didn’t do anything else. Even though she went to the warehouse to get teaching materials, they didn’t come to me or visit Asti.

In the end, for the second plan, I moved the teaching materials and bribed the professor, Elaine. She looked a bit perplexed, but she decided to go along with my plan.

Even if she joins my plan, there will be no harm to her other than a loss of reputation among her students, and on the contrary, she has benefited from the promise I made to her…… It’s something she welcomes with open arms.

“But still, Mr. Prah. “There’s really nothing special happening to Miss Aris, right?”

“I swear on Lancel’s name. Nothing much will happen to Aris. Just…… “Finally, she just has something to say to that guy.”

“I understand. I will do as Mr. Prach says. Oh, and maybe something happens to Miss Aris because of that…….”

“Yes. “I will take responsibility for everything.”

“Good.”

On the outside, it is an academy that dreams of fairness, but there is no place in the world that is fair. Status and wealth. As long as I had those two things, I had no problem making things go my way.

Moreover, Elaine, a professor of magic, was a person with a great desire for success and exploration, and did not care much about other things, so it was easy to appease her.

Asti has already completed all her preparations to open the Magic Mirror. Now, she goes to the textbook warehouse, calls Aris, opens her magic mirror, and that’s it.

Ruslan’s family would probably be hanging around after Aris and I went alone, but that was just what I hoped for.

Because my goal was Ruslan, not Aris.

What are magic classes…… It was the same as always. If you want to draw a certain magic formula, draw along the formula or listen to magic theory.

“So, if we substitute this formula…… One magic circle is completed. You can do it easily too. “It’s time to review what we learned in first grade.”

“Yes!”

I was so surprised to see that the course content worked quite well even though it was not set up in detail.

Anyway, after magic class…….

“Okay then, Mr. Frach and Ms. Aris will be in charge of organizing the teaching materials.”

“Yes?”

Aris looked at Professor Elaine with a puzzled expression, wondering if she felt strange that she was suddenly called.

“Wait a minute, Professor. Aris and Prah…….”

Ruslan tried to stop him, but Professor Elaine tilted his head.

“Is there a problem? “We are just moving educational materials.”

“In that case, I will go instead.”

“No, Ruslan. “The professor called me.”

At that time, Aris showed an unexpected reaction. I also couldn’t help but make a puzzled expression. Why Aris? Ruslan’s decision to take the initiative was definitely a reaction she did not expect, but she was even more surprised because she thought she had done well.

Why is Aris trying to move the teaching materials alone with me?

“I will do it, Professor.”

“Yes. “Then, thank you for your hard work?”

Professor Elaine left the classroom in a somewhat shameless manner, and I packed up the messy teaching materials – magic reagents and empty bottles, etc. – Into a box and left the classroom.

Aris was also the same.

Ruslan asked her if Aris’ reaction was unexpected.

“Aris. You don’t have to do it. And… ….”

He said that and glanced at me. It was obvious even without looking. I’m sure they think I’m going to do something.

“It’s okay. I have something to say to Prah. Ruslan doesn’t need to listen.”

I listened to their conversation and spoke indifferently.

“I go first.”

Aris said a couple more words to Ruslan and then followed after me.

Silence fell between me and Aris.

“Aren’t you curious why I wanted to go with you, Prah?”

I walked, deliberately ignoring her words. Because she has said something before and she doesn’t need to mix it up.

“Is there any need to say useless things? And I would have said it yesterday. I don’t want to talk to you. So just shut up and move on to the teaching materials.”

At my words, she closed her mouth and headed to the warehouse on the second basement floor. An uncomfortable silence falls.

When I finally arrived at the warehouse, I put down the teaching materials and was about to leave the warehouse, Aris caught me.

“Wait a minute, Prah.”

“…… What.”

“Do you remember this brooch?”

What she gave me was an elaborately crafted brooch. And I knew that very well. Although I didn’t set it up myself, it was something that remained very clearly in my memory of Prach hitting me.

Brooch of promise.

It was an object that was intended to give Prah and Aris an opportunity to talk one day when their relationship worsened.
