The Misfit of Demon King Academy

TN: Sorry, but this is a bit of moan on my part. I normally like to leave anything I have to say until the end of the chapter but this time it will have to go to the top I’m afraid.

I’ve noticed people are starting to posts spoilers in the comments, so to all the people posting spoilers can you please stop. There are forums you can go and post your spoilers on which people can look up if they want. You are free to post the links to whatever forum or other places you choose in the comments so people can find them but I do not like nor tolerate spoilers. I do not read ahead and part of the fun for me is reading as I translate and reading the comments section where people put out their ideas and discuss them. Spoilers ruin all that and really hit my motivation hard so please do not post spoilers. Thank you.

I woke up with the bell signalling the end of the class.

“Today’s classes are now over. Everyone, please be on time tomorrow.”

Emilia leaves the classroom and all the students start getting ready leave.

Ray who sits in front of me leaned his chair back and tilted his head my way.

“Should we get something to eat?”

“You’re always hungry.”

“My bodies efficiency is bad.”

I push my chair back and stand up.

“Do you want to come to my house and have a victory celebration? My mothers home-cooked food is the best.”

“Sounds good. It’s your treat then.” Ray says before standing up

Next to me, Sasha has a doubtful look on her face.

“Nee. Just this morning we were cruelly fighting for our lives in the demon tree forest. Why are you both so friendly? Also, isn’t it humiliating to celebrate with the person you lost to?”

Ray and I look at each other.

“Is that so?”

“It was my complete defeat and I don’t feel bad about it because I’ll win next time.”

Ray smiles at me. He’s a funny guy.

“Surely you don’t think you’ve got a grasp of my power with just that one match?”

“I’ve never lost to the same opponent twice.”

“I’ve never lost.”

In response to my gaze that looks down from the high place I’m in Ray smiles his refreshing smile.

“…….Why are you competing against each other again? I thought you were going for a victory celebration? I don’t understand at all.”

Sasha’s complaint seems to come from the bottom of her heart.

“What don’t you understand?”

“It’s a difficult thing for girls to understand.”

“Aah, I see.”

We laugh together as we reach an understanding.

It felt like we could understand each other’s thoughts and feelings without speaking.

There’s some similarities to the master-servant relationship from the age of myths but there’s more a sense of equality between us here.

Is this what friendship between men is like? It’s not bad.

“Jealous?” Misha said to Sasha.

“I’ve said before but I’m not even though Misha keeps saying it.”

“Shouldn’t I?”

“It’s fine. It’s good you speak your mind.”

“Hey! Don’t answer for me! Misha asked me not you!”

What are you getting so excited for?

“I say what I want to say when I want to say it.”

Sasha seems dissatisfied but I lightly brush her off.

“Anyway, let’s go. There’s a guy over there who’s face is saying he’s hungry.”

“That would be me, but I can last another 10 seconds if needed.”

“Is that your limit?”

Me and Ray laugh.

“……..What are those two laughing at……?”

“…….Relations are good…….”

Sasha and Misha mutter something to each other.

“I’ll transfer us.”

I hold out my hand and Sasha takes it firmly while Misha takes Sasha’s hand.

I offer my other hand to Ray.

“…Aah, could you wait a moment?”

Ray seems to have remembered something and calls out to a girl who’s about to leave the classroom.

“Misa-san.”

Misa stops and comes over to us.

“What’s wrong?”

“We’re going to have a celebration at Arnos’ house. Do you want to come with us?”

“Eh…that’s. I’m happy to be invited but isn’t it better for just your group to go?”

Ray makes a meaningful face at me.

Is he just being kindhearted or is he interested in Misa?

Either way is fine I guess.

“What are you talking about? You are already one of my subordinates.”

“Eeh…..? But I completely lost to Sasha-san and Misha-san. I borrowed the power of Ray-san.”

“Victory or defeat is irrelevant. You showed great promise. Also, mazoku cannot use spirit magic but you can and it was the same magic as the great spirit Riniyon.”

“…..Riniyon……?”

“You don’t know?”

Misa shakes her head.

If I remember right she did say that her mother was dead. No wonder she doesn’t know anything.

“It’s one of the great spirits that protected the spirits forest during the age of myths. You probably have some kind of link to it. A spirits magic is deeply related to its existence.”

Misa was seriously listening to my words. She must be interested in her deceased mother.

“It’s pretty interesting that you can use the true power of a spirit.”

There were no half spirit half mazoku in the age of myths so I have no idea if Misa will be able to completely use the power of a spirit yet.

“….Thank you…….I’d love to be one of your subordinates but……”
