37 – Preparation one step ahead – 4

The day after returning from destroying all the breeding grounds created by the succubus, I was spending time sitting idly in the club room.

I skipped the liberal arts lecture for two days in a row, using club activities as an excuse. I really didn’t feel like paying attention to studying.

The professor in charge originally gave permission without question, saying that there was a lot of work to do in the early days of the club’s establishment, but in reality, it was the opposite. Since the superficial purpose of establishment was poor, there was nothing to do.

Instead, there was enough time to invest in thinking.

‘…… The devil is possessed, Ra.’

No matter how much I thought about it, I kept thinking about that possibility. If the Demon King were both a possessor and a regressor like Priscilla or Rosaria, all of his strange words and actions would be explained.

Things like the declaration that this world was a lie, that I was trapped in a puppet show, or that they would never kill me. And maybe even the possibility that she lost control of her body like Priscilla or Rosaria.

Throughout the regression, I had to watch the characters repeating only the words and actions from the original, so it would have felt like everything I saw was not alive but a programmed NPC.

Of the four who remained until the end, Priscilla and Rosaria had control of her body taken away, but she was a possessed person just like him.

‘What does the devil think of me?’

There is a possibility that he may think of me as a possessor just like himself, or as a character in a novel who deviates from the original and acts as he pleases.

Because it was like that in Rosaria right now. Before I revealed my identity, they thought I was simply a character from the original and tried to explain it using a clumsy analogy.

The more I thought about it, the more regretful it was. If things had gone a little more normally, there would have been plenty of time to think about it.

The Succubus breeding ground is suddenly guarded by the commander of the 6th Corps, and after hearing from the commander that the Demon King had predicted this situation, the Demon King himself suddenly appears and beats his subordinates to the brink of death. Something keeps happening. I just did it.

Furthermore, the Demon King, who I thought was a bloodless and tearless massacre, grabbed me and told me to switch to his side, so it was hard to even understand the situation that was right in front of me.

‘How many more people have been dragged here?’

Only one month has passed since I entered Bellium Academy. However, in that one month, I have already found three people who were brought here like me, and four more if you include the demon lord.

At this point, I started to become curious. Who, why, and for what purpose brought us here, and for what reason the possessors who came first made them repeat the same actions as in the original.

‘…… I don’t know.’

But there was no answer, and my mind was still confused. I buried myself on the sofa.

“Mummy! “We’re here—huh.”

“What’s wrong, Leona? Why all of a sudden- hehe?”

No matter how much time passed, she opened the door of the room with all her might, and Brunhild and Aria, who followed behind her, tried to come in, but she froze in front of the door.

The round eyes rolled continuously. She raised her head slightly and looked at the two.

Brunhilde was trembling as she looked at the clubroom, which had changed 1080 degrees since she was first assigned, and Aria had a half-panic look on her face. She changed every little thing, so it was natural to get such a reaction.

“What are you doing when you’re not coming in?”

“…… We can step on this, right? “If it gets dirty, you have to pay a cleaning fee, right?”

“What are you talking about as soon as you arrive? Of course, it’s there for you to step on. Otherwise, why would there be carpet?”

“Do I have to take off my shoes to go in? No, I was wearing shoes the whole time, so even my bare feet would be really dirty, so let’s wash my feet first-“

“Just come in. You don’t have to take it off, you don’t have to wash it. “If it gets dirty after cleaning, you can buy a new one later.”

“…… Buying a new one? This? “How much does it cost?”

How much was that? I looked back at the list of receipts Beatrice had presented. When I remembered the price and told them the price of the carpet, Brunhild and Aria both sighed.

“Hey…… What kind of carpet…… In my hometown, if I used it sparingly, it would be enough to cover a year’s living expenses…….”

“Well, you can really step on it, right…?” … Yes…… ?”

When I saw the two people shaking when they heard the price, a memory of old times came to mind and I smiled. It was around the time when I had just realized that I was a possessor.

It was a carpet that looked expensive, so I took off my shoes and stood on it, and my parents burst into laughter. The butler and Beatrice were so cute that they laughed as if they were dying.

Well, everything will get used to it later. Because I did that too.

“Do you do everything else the same way?”

“That’s right. “There’s no reason to buy just one expensive carpet, right?”

“…… Did you buy everything with the club’s budget? “Even though it’s Bellium Academy, they don’t give that much money.”

“I bought it with my own money? There was a budget, but it wasn’t much, so I left it as is. “I’ll use it somewhere else later.”

“Why, why? “Is there any reason to decorate it like this?”

“This is a poor room that we will be using for the next three years. “It’s a club activity anyway, so we’re just going to hang out and eat here, so we have to make it look like there’s some atmosphere.”

“Boo, atmosphere… ….”

Brunhild and Leona seemed completely overwhelmed by her poor appearance. When she saw that, she decided that if she ever asked about the price of the entire remodeling, she would give it a sizeable reduction.

If you put all the furniture here together, it would be worth a decent amount of money for a house.

What if you add in the cost of the workers they brought in to install it in one day? For those two, it was a truly unimaginable amount of money. I didn’t want to burden them by telling them a specific amount.

‘Should I have just chosen it myself?’

Actually, I didn’t plan on spending money like this from the beginning.

Originally, I was planning to just decorate it in a moderately old-fashioned way, but when I asked Beatrice to recommend some furniture for a new club that we could put there, her advice fell into my parents’ ears.

Thanks to you, I was also dumbfounded when I first came here.

“Hey, Mira. Am I sitting here? Are you really sitting down?”

“It’s a sofa that was put there just for that purpose, so sit down quickly. “What are you afraid of?”

“Wow, wow…… It’s very soft… ….”

“The more expensive ones, the texture is different… ….”

As soon as Aria sank down on her sofa, she let out a small exclamation, and only after Brunhild asked me back several times did she close her eyes tightly and throw herself on the sofa with a face that looked like it was about to melt. Did.

“… ….”

Our eyes met. The two blushed as if they had finally come to their senses. It seemed like he had no intention of leaving.

“Well, where did Priscilla go? “I was always with you, right?”

“He was with a candidate for sainthood. They said they had something to say. “So, did you guys have a good time at the imperial palace?”

“Ah, that’s right!”

Brunhild stood up as if bouncing.

“You said you could have fallen into that murderous spirit or something? “Are you okay?”

“I’m so quick to ask. “Don’t worry, that won’t happen.”

“Are you really sure? Is it real? Mira, if you become a murderer, are you really going to cry?”

“If you’re going to hear the news, you should have listened to it properly. When we first met the Sword Saint, what was the reason that he was so furious and ended up doing nothing? “He did that because he was confident that I wouldn’t change.”

“…… “Is that what happens?”

“Are you a warrior?”

Brünnhild looked away with a embarrassed expression. This time, Aria was next to her, “She pulled out the holy sword, so doesn’t that mean she has enough qualifications?” She was trying to defend herself.

Actually, it was understandable that there wasn’t that much awareness until now. It is said that he only begins to realize himself as a hero in earnest after several incidents occur in the middle of Part 1.

In other words, if Belium Academy is safe because of me, the time for Brunhild to realize his power as a warrior will be far away.

‘But I have no intention of letting the Academy be destroyed.’

You want me to be dragged home again, that is absolutely unacceptable. Especially if you are dragged into a situation where the academy is destroyed and you have no place to stay.

“Umm…… Okay! Mira, if you say so, you are correct. Anyway, Sword Saint wants me to thank you again. “I heard you’ll definitely do the case again later?”

“… ….”

I shook my head inwardly. It was a remark that seemed to have no intention of hiding his intentions. She was very outspoken in her suspicions that Karna was the cause of her return to normal.

“All I did was stand next to him while waiting for the Sword Saint to return, and I was lucky enough to see him come back, and I’m thankful for that. “I’m dying from the burden, really.”

“I guess it means he’s sorry for being so cruel to us. She apologized to me and Aria three times for bowing down to her. Later, the recipient said we would please lift her head?”

ㅡKnock knock.

Suddenly, I heard someone knocking on the bedroom door. Aria, who was sobbing on her sofa, lifted her upper body as if bouncing.

“Who is it?”

“Well. “Aren’t you Priscilla?”

“If it were Priscilla, I would have knocked and come in right away. “I don’t think so.”

ㅡKnock knock.

“Is there anyone inside?”

The knocking sound echoed again, and this time a woman’s voice was also heard. It was a voice I had heard before.

‘Roxanna Astrière.’

She is a member of the Astrière family and a half-succubus who is said to have been infiltrated into the empire by succubi for a very long time. She is also a woman who tried to seduce me but failed.

“I think I understand. Are you the same person from last time? “She is the woman who opposed Mira’s entry into the student council behind the Crown Prince’s back.”

“That’s right. “It’s her voice.”

“Umm…… But why did she come here?”

Aria tilted her head.

“Well. “Once you open it, you’ll find out.”

Even as I approached the door, Roxanne continued her patient waiting with her third knock.

The soundproof door, which was designed to allow outside sounds to be heard from inside but prevent inside sounds from leaking outside, seemed to be working properly.

“They finally opened it. Hello, Mummy Krait. “It’s been a long time since we’ve been together, right?”

As soon as I opened the door, Roxanna greeted me cheerfully. Beneath her pink hair fluttering behind her head, her breasts, whose size was in no way comparable to Rosaria’s, were bouncing and shaking.

“I thought you didn’t want to even make eye contact with her.”

“Oh, indeed. That happened some time ago, but is it still like that?”

Roxanne laughed and nudged my stomach with her elbow. Even though she had only half of her blood mixed with her, her every action seemed very natural, perhaps because she was a succubus.

The way he speaks and the way he behaves has also become much more lively. I really wondered if this woman in front of her was the same woman who was desperately opposing my joining the student council.

“So, what brought you here? As you can see, I’m involved in club activities.”

“Oh, about that.”

Roxanna took out her paper, which had been folded neatly into a square, from the inside pocket of her coat and unfolded it.

“Ta-da! Application for admission!”

“…… “An application for admission?”

“Did you know that you can join multiple clubs at our academy? The student council is also a club, so it is no exception. So, I’m going to submit an application to you guys!”
