The Misfit of Demon King Academy

“……..Be okay……..?”

“Well, usually this tactic would lead to our defeat. I’d be shot with that much magic fire I’d look like a honeycomb but if there is enough power difference it will work.”

Are you worried? Misha’s face hardens.

“You worried?”

When I ask her Misha shakes her head.

“I’m anxious but……Arnos is strong…….”

I’m starting to understand Misha very well. She’s staring at my core with her demon eyes and understands me as well.

“I’ll leave the decoy to you.”

Misha nods.

“……..Be careful……….”

“Yeah, I know. I’m not very good at going easy on someone after all.”

Misha blinks at me a number of times.

“……Talking about Arnos……..”

“This me? Being careful?” I ask unintentionally

Misha tilts her head at me.

“…….Strange…..?”

“No.”

*Fufufu* laughter comes deep from my stomach.

I didn’t think that she’d be worried about me fighting. Is this what having a friend is like? It’s a fresh feeling and unexpectedly doesn’t feel too bad at all.

“You be careful too Misha.”

“……Nn…….”

Waving at Misha I head off into the east side of the forest where Sasha’s group is.

After a few minutes, a huge magical power flow comes from behind me.

Turning around I see 3 huge castles have been built in separate places throughout the west side of the forest.

They will probably be hollow shells as they are only decoys but even so. For Misha to construct 3 huge castles in such a short period of time is outstanding. Her magic power far exceeds others in her class.

Excluding me of course.

“Now then. Hows the other side reacting……?”

I use my demon eyes and intercept their Thought Communication <Liikus>.

Voices came through almost immediately.

“Sasha-sama. Three castles have been built on the enemies side.”

“Two are probably traps. The Demon King (King) will be hidden in the remaining one.”

“Do we destroy the castles one by one?”

“No. In such a short time Misha cannot create three complete Demon King castles. She will be buying time to complete and strengthen the real one. I’ll swat them first.”

“Roger that. Please give us instructions.”

“Form units consisting of Demon Swordsman (Cavalier), Therapist (Healer), Sorcerer (Mage) and Summoner (Summoner) and head to each castle.”

“Understood!”

I see. Assuming its one class per unit that 12 people heading off to the 3 castles.

She’s still got more than half her units at her position. She’s being more cautious than I thought.

Now then——

“Fumu. Have you finally built your castle?”

That took longer than expected. A huge Demon King castle has appeared on the enemies side. Until I had a destination I couldn’t move out.

Now then, let’s begin. I use Transfer <Gatom>

My field of vision turns pure white and the next moment Sasha’s Demon King castle appears in front of me.

I intercept their Thought Communication <Liikus> again and my head is filled with noise.

“Sa, Sasha-sama!?”

“What’s wrong?”

“The enemies Demon King (King) Arnos Voldigod has suddenly appeared in front of the castle!”

“What!? How’d he do that…?”

“I don’t know. The (Shaman) was watching very carefully for approaching magic power but he just suddenly appeared!! It’s some type of magic we don’t know!”

I heard Sasha take in a sharp breath.

“……..Possibly…….the lost magic Transfer <Gatom>…..? It must be…….what else could it be….?”

Fumu. She’s very flexible in her thinking and understood it without seeing it.

“If the Demon King (King) wants to come alone that’s fine. He might as well beg me to kill him. He probably intended to surprise us but we’ll teach him the folly of his reckless tactics!”

“I wonder about that?”

I force my way into their <Liikus> causing Sasha’s team to start panicking.

“What the…….. Why can I hear that guys voice!?”

“I don’t know. The magic formation has no problems. We shouldn’t be able to hear him!”

“Well, we can!! Find the cause, quickly!! There’s a chance that he might be able to hear us as well!!”

Yare yare. They sure are noisy.

“The cause is the method in how you constructed the spell. The recall rate of the formation is 89%. That’s pretty low so it enabled me to monitor you.”

“That’s stupid! If the recall rate is 89% then it can be used to conceal secret communications on a national level but you’re saying it can be intercepted!”

“Don’t be fooled by his words! There must be some other reason!

Good grief. I took the time to carefully teach them but they don’t believe me.

“It’s not a problem.”

At the sound of Sasha’s voice, her subordinates regained their calm.

I’ll admit her charisma is pretty good.

“Even if he’s monitoring our <Liikus> he’s still the enemy (King) and he’s here alone. This castle was constructed by 7 (Guardians). He won’t be able to breach even the first layer.”

7 (Guardians) made this? I guess it will be pretty sturdy. There are a number of traps, dungeons, reinforcements for the (King) and plenty of protection.

However………

“It’s a very light castle.”

I walk straight up to the castle and place my hand on the wall.

“It’s useless. Multiple anti-magic formations are woven through it.”

“If you are only cautious of magic then you don’t know what a real battle is.”

I strongly grasp the wall and sink my fingers into it.

“Remember this. In the future make your castle heavier.”

With a groaning sound, the Demon King castle is ripped from the ground.

“Shaman! Wha, what’s going on!?”

“I can’t believe it. That guy…..Arnos Voldigod, he’s lifting the castle out of the ground!!”

“No….way. Hows he doing that………!!”

I completely lift the castle out of the ground using only one hand.

“….No way…… Where’s he getting the power from? He’s the (King) and he’s not receiving any protection….How…..?”

“Certainly, when using Demon King Army <Guys> the power depends on the class, however, there’s a big difference between our base strengths.”

I slowly turn my body and start swinging the castle around. Centrifugal force slowly builds up as I start swinging faster and faster.

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

“Mon, monster! Not only lifting the castle but swinging it around as well!?”

“Stop! What are you going to do? Stoooooop!!”

Fumu. Don’t look for mercy here.

The anti-magic was perfect but they ignored physics (1)

In the first place, these people have gotten too used to peace and no longer train their bodies. Before starting to use strong magic you need to work on your physical strength.

“Hey, take care when falling otherwise you’ll die.”

I throw the castle away using the centrifugal force I’d built up. The huge Demon King castle flies through the sky cutting through the air and then smashes into the ground.

(1) Says the guy swinging around an entire castle one-handedly.
