Chapter 1 – First Time Devil King Academy


Part 1 

Wake up. 

Nn.... 

It’s time to wake up, my master. 

My body stirred on the bed. 

What was this voice? It wasn’t the familiar sound of my alarm. It wasn’t the electronic sound that I set up as the my smartphone’s default and also wasn’t my mom’s voice. 

It was a woman’s voice that sounded somewhat mechanical......what’s more the wording was strange. Who was it calling master? 

......Did I set up the alarm with a strange sound while half-asleep  

I rubbed my eyes while sitting up. 

......What’s this  

A card was placed beside my pillow. 

It was a sparkling pretty card. It had the picture of naked man and woman facing each other and an angel at the background giving them blessing. 

This is a Devil king arcana the arcana of Lovers. 

The voice from just now resounded inside my head. I picked up the card beside my pillow. 

Was this card......talking? 

That’s stupid, was what I thought, but that was the only possibility that I could think. To begin with, why was something like this here in my room? Was this dad or mom’s card? 

I got down the stair still wearing my pajama and entered the living room. Mom was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Dad was sitting on the sofa watching news in the internet using a tablet. 

The two of them should be around 40, but they looked strangely youthful. I hesitated who I should ask before I showed the card to dad. 

Hey, was it you dad who put this card beside my pillow  

Hm? What, you didn’t even say good morning ? 

Dad was speechless seeing the card in my hand. His tablet slipped from his hand and hit his foot, and yet he didn’t even twitch. 

Oi, wasn’t that painfu ? 

Mo-! Mom-!! Look, look at thissssssssss-!! 

Mom came to the living room in panic due to dad’s sudden screaming. 

Dear!! What’s wrong!  

Yu-Yuuto is......Yuuto is, chosen as a candidate to be the next demon kingggggggggggggg!! 

Eh!  

Mom also stiffened the moment she saw the card. Tears were immediately pooling up in her eyes. 

Wait......wh-what’s wrong? Mom ? 

YUU-KUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUB!! 

She suddenly hugged me. 

Wai-! Wait!  

What’s going on! The last time mom hugged me was when I was at elementary school! Or rather, what were these two going on about! 

I looked at dad to ask for help, but he was also getting all teary. 

L-l-listen to me Yuuto. C-c-c-c-c-calm down and p-p-p-pay attention. 

Y-yeah......first you calm down dad. 

What you have there is a Devil King arcana. 

Devil king arcana? 

Do you know about tarot card Yuuto  

Well, more or less......it’s the thing you use for fortune telling right  

That’s right. Tarot card is divided into the major arcana and minor arcana. This card is one of those arcana ......the arcana of Lovers. This is also dad’s first time seeing it. 

I turned my gaze toward the card once more. It got ?THE LOVERS? written on it. 

Hee......eh? Then it wasn’t dad or mom who put it beside my pillow? Then how ? 

Mom grabbed my arm and shook me back and forth with all her strength. 

It’s because Yuu-kun is chosen to be a candidate for the next devil king!! 

Devil king candidate? 

I was worried about my parents’ sanity. 

I never thought they would still have chuunibyou at this age. These parents of mine couldn’t be underestimated. 

You see......dad and mom, we are actually working for the devil race.... 

I felt like I was going to faint. 

What do you mean? Are you two getting tricked to enter some kind of strange cult  

That’s not it. I meant we were contracted with devil. 

Their sickness was really serious. My parents were no good. I had to do something right away. 

Dad failed in finding a job in the past......there a devil invited me. The conditions were also far better compared to the normal company......well, because of that dad joined a company that was managed by the devil race and worked as support to make it easier for the devils to do their activity in the human world. 

H-hee......when, dad said devil, are you talking about a superior you hate or something  

I know it’s hard to believe to hear something like this out of nowhere but......for example? 

Dad spread his palm and a small flame rose from there. 

Eh!  

What’s this? A magic trick? 

Just so you know, this isn’t any trick. 

I checked all over dad’s palm, but I didn’t find any gadget at all. Dad grinned and showed me the ring on his left hand’s ring finger. 

This is the power of the ring that a devil bestowed to me. I got them as the reward for my ten years of continuous service. 

Dad showed off the ring to me while looking strangely happy. That ring wasn’t a wedding ring? 

Mom too, show him. 

I guess......ah! 

Mom noticed the frying pan that was still heated by fire in the kitchen and stretched her hand toward the gas stove. Then the adjustment dial of the stove rotated and the fire stopped. 

......Seriously  

Mom suddenly looked like Luke Skywalker. 

I can only do this much though......ah, but this ring also has anti-aging effect! It’s already the best just from that! 

Mom was also showing off the ring on her left hand’s ring finger. Even so, after hearing the story of these two, the devil’s existence felt like it wasn’t that much of a big deal anymore....... 

Dad and mom want to live as devil instead of human......sometimes we would think like that. But ? 

A human cannot become a devil. It doesn’t matter how hard a human work, at best they will be given the title as honorary devil. Even that is impossible to reach unless you make a great contribution for the devil race. 

Even this ring, its anti-aging effect is amazing but......its other effect can only be used for cooking at best. While dad’s ring can only be useful for making campfire. 

Mom, you don’t need to say that. I’m amazed you can say such cruel thing so casually, mom. 

Dad was also making a slightly hurt look, but he immediately got back on his feet and spoke to me. 

The devil race’s world has a strict class system. That’s why we had given up, and yet......to think that you can.... 

Dad rubbed his tearful eyes. 

A-anyway. Now that it has come to this, we need to take care of the school transfer procedure right away. 

Eh? School transfer  

Mom started shaking my body back and forth again when I asked that. 

That’s right! Exactly! Aaah! Yuu-kun is going to become a student in that Ginsei Academy! Mom is really happy!! 

W-wait a second! What’s with the sudden school transfer!  

Mom wiped her tears of joy with her fingertip and answered while breathing hard. 

It’s the rule that a devil king candidate will enroll into Ginsei Academy. 

Ginsei Academy......what’s that  

I looked toward dad with a puzzled look. Then dad nodded with tearful eyes. 

Ginsei Academy aka devil king academy. It’s the academy where noble and high class devils are going to. 

Devil king academy. 

My parents were actually working for devil, devil king candidate, transferring school to an academy where the devils went to, it was a special bargain sale of shocking developments and it felt like my consciousness was going to leave me. 

In addition, apparently I couldn’t avoid transferring to that devil king academy. I felt like it would be bad of me if I refused after seeing my parents’ happiness. 

Besides, if I could be honest, I was also feeling slightly excited. It wasn’t like I was dissatisfied by my mediocre life. 

But, there wasn’t any man who wouldn’t be excited when they learned that there was actually a special world inside this world that looked like it contained no mystery or miracle at all. 

What’s more, I could receive the qualification to step into that world. 

Then , 

I’m going, to the devil king academy. 

Part 2 

As expected, I couldn’t transfer to the new school right at the next day. 

There were many things to prepare like ordering new uniforms or taking care of the procedure. A week passed like that. 

During that time I also gave a notice to my old school that I would transfer and said my farewell to my acquaintances there. 

It felt quite suffocating to say my farewell in the classroom and then leaving the school alone while class was going like normal. 

But even that sentimentality passed quickly before I finally came to my new school. 

So this is Ginsei Academy.... 

According to the academy manual that I received beforehand, it was a huge school that included elementary school, middle school, and high school. It boasted a great scale as the academy that was built for the devil race. 

The academy’s ground was vast with full set of facilities filling it. Although it was located at the outskirt of the city, it was astonishing that no one realized about the existence of an academy this grand apparently it was the result of the barrier that was applied to the academy. 

The barrier made it so that the citizens in this area didn’t feel that there was anything out of place. I also heard things like politicians that were the subordinates of the devil race pressuring the mass media and so on. 

I was in front of the school gate of such wondrous devil king academy. 

The gate was magnificent. The inside of the school also didn’t lose in extravagance. The building’s architecture had a cool design that must cost a lot of money. 

I was feeling somewhat daunted, even so my heart was feeling exhilarated. I wonder what would be waiting for me here. 

I passed through the gate with expectation of a new life in my heart and headed to the school building midway I got uneasy from the attention of the surrounding students that I gathered. 

As expected, did they understand that I was a human? After all I was apparently the first human to become a student in the devil king’s academy......or perhaps my commoner nature was oozing out from me? There were a lot of students here who came from aristocrat background or wealthy family even among the devil race. 

Oh man......it’ll be tiring just to be here if it’s like this. 

At that time, a black limousine drove past me. It parked in front of the entrance to the school building. 

Then a student who had been waiting opened the door. A gray haired handsome guy got down from the limousine. But, his atmosphere was different from your average joe. This guy was clad in an air that pressured other people. 

Should I say that he got a different aura? The pressure he gave off was in different level. I would easily accept it if I was told that he was a noble devil. 

His gaze was gloomy and heavy as though he was lacking sleep. It was a gaze that was looking down on the whole world. There was also an eerie presence lurking within him. 

All of those signs were telling me that this guy wasn’t a human, but a different creature altogether. 

This guy was dangerous my instinct was telling me so. 

If this guy felt like it, surely he would be able to kill me instantly. 

......Hm  

Crap, our eyes met. 

However, the guy only frowned slightly before entering the school building. 

I’m glad that nothing happened and patted my chest in relieve. But , 

Oi, you bastard! 

The guy who opened the limousine’s door was glaring at me. 

He was a student with his hair dyed blond gaudily. He gave an impression that was completely different from a rich young master. I was surprised that there was also this kind of student here. 

The student seemed to think I was ignoring him when I was staying quiet. His gaze sharpened and he walked toward me. 

What the hell were you doing staring at Aspite-sama like that? Aa  

Aspite? 

You mean, the one who got down from the limousine just now  

Obviously you idiot! Are you playing stupid......then again, I never saw your mug around here. 

Aa. I’m only transferring here from today. 

The expression of the gaudy looking student changed. 

Don’t tell me......! You bastard is the transfer student with Lovers arcana!  

Eh, how did he know? 

The gaudy looking student calmed down while staring fixedly on my face. And then his flustered face changed completely into a wicked grin. 

Now this is lucky......I heard that a new devil king candidate is coming but, it’s actually only this weak looking guy. I can’t even feel any mana from you......don’t tell me, you bastard isn’t even a noble but a commoner  

Not really......I’m a human. 

The face of the gaudy looking student twisted and he burst out laughing. 

Wahahahahahahahahahahahahha!! That’s real funny! So not only you aren’t a commoner, you ain’t even a demon! You’re just trash then! 

Trash......what do you mean by that  

Aa, perhaps I’m going too far calling you a trash. Well, you’re more of a pig I guess. 

Pig!  

For us, the like of humans are just livestock like pig. What the hell are you pig doing wearing this devil king academy’s uniform huh! Know your fucking place! Apologize for talking back to this Geld-sama! Strip and do dogeza with your peewee dangling! 

What the hell is this Geld bastard prattling on? 

His behavior made me went past getting angry into exasperation instead. Was there only this kind of guy in the devil race? 

You listening you bastard! Huuhh!! 

I held back the anger that was boiling inside me. 

I’m listening. I understand that you can’t stomach me coming here, but I got the permission for my enrollment. Can you let me pass  

This Geld too was moderately strong even if it wasn’t as much as that Aspite. I was strangely able to sense that. 

I was feeling something whirling from Geld’s body. Was this mana? I didn’t really understand, but at the very least it was certain that he wasn’t an opponent that I could face. 

Besides, I mustn’t cause problem in my first day of school. I remembered how happy my parents were that I was able to enroll into this academy. I needed to endure a little provocation like this. 

What’s with that way of speaking!! You got no discipline eh......guess it can’t be helped for a pig like you that was born from stinky geezer and hag. 

......What did he say? 

Your parents, they are useless old man with no worth at all and a hag who can only give birth to a shitty brat ain’t they  

.... 

I gritted my teeth and walked toward the entrance. However, 

Where are you going! Shitty pigggg!! 

Something snapped inside me when he called me to a stop. 

......What, so you can speak with words. I didn’t get what the hell were you talking about with those oink oink of yours. Can you please talk with me using human language  

......Wha? 

It looked like Geld never thought that I would talk back to him. He stopped moving with his mouth staying wide open. 

I spoke further. 

I don’t know how strong you are, but just because you’re strong doesn’t mean that you are a great person or someone worthy of respect. Keep that in mind. 

B-bastard.... 

What’s important for human is heart. Only those who live with the righteous heart is worthy of respect. The you right now don’t deserve any respect. You’re contemptible instead. 

The students who were watching from afar were starting to murmur to each other. 

Oi, that human......he is disobeying Geld who is from a viscount house. 

He really doesn’t cherish his own life. This Geld was also the one who caused that bloodbath with his classmate before this wasn’t he  

What’s more he is chosen to be Aspite-sama’s card right? That transfer student is just a human no matter how I see it......he’s going to die. 

......Isn’t this a bit dangerous? 

But, it didn’t matter if it was just me, but I couldn’t forgive him for insulting my dad and mom no matter what still, perhaps it would be better if I quickly scamper from here. 

When my foot stepped toward the entrance, 

.....You’re on......I’ll murder you here!! 

A vein popped on Geld’s forehead. 

Crap. It looked like this guy had also completely snapped. 

If I kill you bastard, then perhaps Aspite-sama’ll also promote me to be his court card yeahhhh!! 

Court card? No, forget about that, this guy was saying dangerous thing like ?kill? just now! 

It would be bad if this commotion got bigger than this. I should calm him down for the moment. 

Well, calm down a bit. It’s not good to fight inside the school you know  

It didn’t look like he was listening to me at all. 

What was I going to do if he suddenly tried to stab me with a knife? 

Geld didn’t pay any mind to my worry and spread open his empty hands toward me. 

How dare you talk back toward me who is a card of Aspite-sama, the world arcana......regret it with your death!! 

So that meant, the guy just now was also a devil king candidate whatever, it didn’t matter right now!! 

Flame was gathering in the hands that Geld spread out. That flame took the shape of a ball and rotated with great speed. It was a terrifying flame magic that couldn’t be compared with the fire that dad showed before. 

Eat this! FigaMega Flame!! 

Geld pushed both his arms forward and the mass of lame flew. If I didn’t dodge it , 

!  

The flame ball was already in front of me when I noticed. 

Fast. 

It wasn’t a speed that I could dodge. 

It was too sudden that I couldn’t even yell. 

What the hell is this. 

For me to get game over in my first day of coming to school, I hadn’t even entered the school building. 

I couldn’t apologize enough to my dad and mom who were happy for me. 

To think that my life would end because of something like this , 

The instant I resigned myself, 

The flame was deflected away from me. 

What!  

The flame was blocked by an unseen wall in front of me. No, rather than a wall, it was a shining magic barrier. 

And then I caught sight of the back of the girl who deployed that magic barrier. 

Beautiful black hair that grew long until her waist. Slender legs that stretched out from the uniform’s skirt with black stockings covering them. 

I was convinced that she must be a beauty even though I had only seen her back. 

And then that conviction was proved to be right when she looked across her shoulder and I saw her face. 

She was the very picture of beauty. 

With that mature expression, she must be older than me. Long eyelashes and unclouded eyes. Beautifully lustrous skin. Her shiny pink lips opened and I caught a glimpse of her pure white teeth. 

Are you alright  

Her voice was refreshing and dignified. Even though this was a deadly situation where life might be lost, she was behaving calmly. And then above all else was her beauty. It was as though a goddess or an angel had descended before me. 

No, this was the devil king academy, so perhaps she was more of a witch or a devil or perhaps a succubus. 

In fact I felt my spine shuddered just from getting stared by her. 

The flame vanished and Geld yelled angrily. 

You......Himekami Lizel. You are on the way!! 

Himekami Lizel, so that was this person’s name. 

She smiled toward me before looking toward Geld once more. 

You should worry about yourself. A mere card dare to make a move toward other devil king candidate without permission from his lord. You’re going to get punished later. 

Gu.... 

Geld faltered for a moment, but his anger from getting looked down on won. His face turned bright red and he yelled so angrily that his saliva scattered. 

Don’t screw with me you bitch! It was you who dare to ignore Aspite-sama’s invitation! Even though he was even going to make you the World’s queen!! 

I’m not interested. 

Aspite-sama is the owner of the World arcana you know! Don’t you know that he is said to be the one closest to be the next devil king even among all the Devil King arcana!  

He isn’t to my liking. 

Geld opened his mouth in exas[eration. 

A......are you stupid! He is the heir of Line House! He’s handsome and can do anything. He’s a man who’s going to be the best in the world in anything he do without a doubt! Any woman is going to go weak in the knees against him! Women who want to be embraced by Aspite-sama are a dime a dozen! 

I could only see her back, but I got the feeling that Himekami Lizel was looking grim. 

I don’t feel like talking with you more than this. The one I have business with is, Morioka Yuuto......only him. 

She glanced back at me and winked. 

It was a wink that would make any kind of man fell in love. 

I also don’t have any business with you! Screw off, I’ve a fight to finish with that human!! 

Flame was whirling around Geld once more. 

It’s obvious just from a glance! I can’t feel any mana or magic formula from that guy! He’s seriously just a human! Obviously it’s just a mistake that a Devil King arcana came to him! But, it’s still counted as defeating a devil king candidate if I take him down. I’m gonna rise in rank using that guy as stepping stone! 

Geld turned his palm toward me with a vulgar grin. Magic formula was forming in front of his hand. 

......There’s no other choice. 

The back of the reliable Himekami Lizel moved aside wait, eh! 

She twirled with dancing-like movement and circled to behind me. She placed her hands on my shoulders and stuck close to me. 

You have Lovers’ arcana with you right  

Eh? Y-yeah. 

Her breath blew on my ear. My back shuddered from it. 

I could smell a really nice fragrance from her. 

And then, there was the soft sensation touching my back. 

My heart was pounding from that touch, even so I still got enough sense to bring out Lovers’ arcana from under my shirt. 

It was put inside a card case and hanging from my neck with a chain. Mom prepared it for me. 

Don’t worry. That arcana will teach you the magic you need......believe it. 

Even if you tell me that!  

It’s fine. Take a deep breath and calm down. 

It was almost impossible to calm down in this kind of situation, but I could only try. For now I took a long and deep breath. 

Good job. Next you have to wish it. Ask for a shield to protect yourself. 

When I did just as she told me , 

Defensive magic BarricadeMagic Barrier is learned. 

That voice resounded in my head. 

How is it? Can you hear the arcana’s voice  

Arcana’s, voice? 

The voice just now was certainly the voice that woke me up in the morning when the Lovers’ arcana came to me. As I thought, it was really the Lovers’ voice. 

A complex string of character and drawing formed inside my head in the next moment. 

What’s this! 

Letters and drawing that I had never seen before no, 

This was the magic barrier that Himekami Lizel used to block Geld’s flame. 

And then, the meaning of this incomprehensible magic circle, 

I understand it. 

Mysteriously I understood the meaning of its mechanism right now. 

The meaning of every single letter, the meaning of the geometrical pattern. 

I thought it was just a design without any meaning at first, but far from it. Every single part of it had a meaning. It was only inevitable for the magic circle to take this shape. 

Fufu, it looks like you can hear it. 

She whispered into my ear in delight. Her voice was ticklish to my ear, but the soft elasticity that was pressing on my back was even more terrific than that. 

I could hear it, but......that’s......it’s touching my back.... 

Himekami Lize sighed ‘fuh’ and whispered sexily into my ear. 

I know  

Shivers ran from my lower body until my head. And then my back felt it. A softness that I had never experienced until now. A warm and mysterious sensation was spreading from there into my body. It flowed through the nerves and blood vessels throughout my body and reached until every corner. 

What’s, this? 

It was hard to describe but......it was something extremely concentrated. Should I call it the undiluted solution of endurance and willpower? The energy was hiding outrageous explosive power that was flowing into my body. 

The more it flowed through my body, the more power was welling up and my feeling clearing up. It was an overflowing hope. Even the working of my brain felt like it was gradually speeding up. 

I could see things that I could never see until now and heard sound that I couldn’t hear. 

Even things that I thought was impossible was possible now that was what I felt. 

Yuuto. Imagine pouring this mana into the magic circle floating in your head. 

Mana? 

Did she mean this mysterious sensation that was flowing into me from Himekami Lizel’s breasts? 

When I looked forward, Geld was forming a flame that was several times larger than before. 


Don’t flirt in the middle of battle you fuckers! This time isn’t gonna be the same like before! I’m gonna burn you two without even leaving bones behind!! 

This is bad! We’re going to get burned to death at this rate!! 

I desperately imagined the warmth flowing from Himekami Lizel’s breasts pouring into the magic circle. 

But at that time, 

DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! 

Explosive flame was fired toward us from Geld’s hand. 

Is this the end! 

I pointed my left hand forward in blind desperation and yelled that incantation. 

Barricade!! 

A magic circle expanded in front of my left hand. 

The flame that attacked like a muddy stream was completely repelled by the magic circle in front of my surprised gaze. 

WHATTTTT!  

Geld’s face twisted in shock. 

His flame magic that he formed at full power by pouring time and mana into it had been repelled. 

By an amateur like me. 

Well of course he would be shocked. It was none other than myself who was the most surprised after all. 

Let’s run away using this chance such thought crossed my mind, but Himekami Lizel was pressing down my shoulders firmly behind me. 

Next is attack magic. 

Seriously? 

Geez, this person is a slave driver. 

I desperately held back my complaint and prayed to the arcana once more. 

At this rate both of us would get burned to death. 

Please. Devil king arcana. 

Give me the way to fight. So I can save myself and the person behind me! 

Then , 

Attack magic Figa is learned. 

I could hear the arcana’s voice. Then I raised my right hand forward. 

A magic circle with slightly different shape from before formed slightly ahead of my palm. 

This was the same with the magic circle that Geld created just now. 

However, the quality was different. 

It was only now I realized the power of the Lovers’ arcana dangling in front of my chest. 

And also the power of Himekami Lizel who was supplying me with mana. 

Figa!! 

Flame burst from my magic circle when I yelled that. 

Flame attacked Geld like a muddy stream. Its firepower and speed were several times his own. 

UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! 

Geld had laid out a defensive magic, but he was washed away along with that magic circle. 

Geld’s body was sent flying and crashed on the entrance. Shore racks were crashing from the impact and he got buried under them. 

The students who were watching from afar lost their voice. 

I got worried for Geld’s safety seeing how powerful the magic was. 

......Is he, going to be okay  

I turned around looking for an answer. 

I found Himekami Lizel looking surprised there. 

I unconsciously gulped, seeing her beauty from this close. 

......Unbelievable. To think that you would really succeed. 

Eh? 

By that......don’t tell me this person was intending for me to die! 

I was planning to interfere in case you failed but......this changes everything. 

She seemed to read my expression and added those words with a smile. 

For you to be capable of producing this much power with your first magic......to be honest, this surpassed my expectation. As expected from an owner of a Devil King arcana......no, that’s not all. 

Himekami Lizel was staring at me with a heated gaze. 

It was embarrassing. My eyes unconsciously darted around. 

I didn’t know that it would be this embarrassing to be stared straight by a transcendental beauty like this! 

E-err. Himekami, Lizel-san? Who could you possibly be....... 

I am Himekami Lizel from class 2-A. You can call me Lizel. Please treat me well, my devil king. 

Second year student......as I thought, she was a senior wait, devil king! 

Lizel-senpai......I have......a lot of things I want to ask but, for now, thank.... 

Eh? I wanted to say thanks, but my sight was blurry....... 

Lizel-senpai smiled affectionately. 

Don’t force yourself. Rest well. 

For some reason I felt dizzy. Was it because I was staring at a beauty from this close? 

There was no way that was the case I self-retorted before my consciousness cut off. 

Part 3 

When I woke up, I was sleeping on a bed. 

Was I carried to the infirmary.... 

I’m glad, it looks like you have come to yourself. 

Eh  

When I looked beside me, there was Lizel-senpai’s face. 

......Tsu!  

I jumped in surprise. 

The blanket on Lizel-senpai and my body was flipped up by my movement. 

Yahn  

Lizel-senpai let out a cute voice and covered her breasts with her hand. 

A naked body without a single cloth covering it appeared from under the blanket. 

N-naked! 

I, I’m sorry-! 

I gasped and checked myself. My upper body was naked, but fortunately I was wearing my briefs. 

E-err......t-this is......what’s going on  

I muttered my question. Lizel-senpai smiled calmly in respond. 

I was doing the ritual magic for healing......Healing LoversLove Magic Offering . 

Lizel-senpai was lying on her belly with her hands supporting her cheeks. The blanket was only hiding from her butt below while the crack there was half visible. Her white back that was completely laid bare was radiant. 

Then there were the curve drawn by the large breasts that were flattened against the bed and jutted out to the sides. 

Lizel-senpai must have noticed my gaze, but she didn’t even try to hide her body. 

E-err......ritual? Magic? Healing Lovers  

You have only wakened up as a devil king candidate. You ran out of mana just from using some simple magic. That’s why I’m healing you like this by sharing my mana with you after you used magic. Like that your mana can recover immediately. This is a special ability that only your Lovers possess a characteristic magic. 

I touched the Lovers’ arcana that was dangling from my neck like a pendant. My upper body wasn’t wearing anything but this pendant was still here. 

I obtained knowledge of magic from this arcana in the fight before. 

In addition mana was poured into me from Lizel-senpai’s breasts that were touching my back. At the very least that was what I felt. 

Say, Lizel-senpai. Just now, when I fought Geld, from my back there was ? 

Yes. I used Healing Lovers to send mana to you from my breasts. 

It was embarrassing to be told straight like that. It was especially awkward to hear the word ‘breast’ from a girl’s mouth. 

Is this your first time using magic Yuuto  

Yes, of course. 

Fufu, so you were really just a human. It feels fresh somehow. 

Lizel-senpai sat up while covering her breasts with her arms. I got a peek of her plump thigh when her leg got out of the blanket. 

I unconsciously gulped. 

Lizel-senpai hid her breast with one hand while her other hand reached toward my chest. 

Ah.... 

Her slightly cold hand touched my chest. 

It was really soft. So a woman’s palm was this soft. 

By having skin contact like this, my mana is absorbed by the Healing Lovers to heal you. The deeper our bond with each other is, the stronger our feeling to each other is, the greater the effect will become. But if there is no intimate relationship between the two sides, then a skin contact on the spot that is unusual for touching will be more effective. 

I see......so that was why senpai was intentionally pressing her breasts on me when I was fighting Geld. This situation right now was also to make me recover after I lost consciousness. 

That was also my first time doing it though. 

Lizel-senpai lightly tilted her head. Then her glossy black hair slid above her white skin smoothly. 

She was certainly a senior who was a year......above me. However it was unthinkable for a high school student to be this charming. 

My eyes were stolen by that sex appeal regardless of my intention, but then I noticed that senpai was also staring at me. I reflexively took my gaze off from her and my eyes wandered around. 

Inside this room other than the large bed, there was also a table, chairs, sofa, TV, cupboard, closet, and a dresser. All of the furniture was of splendid quality. This place looked like a high class hotel somewhere. However when I looked at the wall, ceiling, and window, it felt like something was out of place. 

Where is, this place  

This is the waiting room of Lovers team aka a palace. It’s located at the third floor of the school building. 

......Wait, could it be, we’re still in the academy!  

Indeed this is the academy. The devil king candidates are given their own waiting room. Also pardon me, but I was taking the liberty to decorate this room arbitrarily. 

I looked around the room once more. She called this room a waiting room, but its size was around the same like a normal classroom. Even this bed was king sized. Furthermore it got a canopy attached. It was extremely pleasant to sleep on. 

Lizel-senpai turned her back on me and took the black underwear that was placed on the side table. 

She was putting on a sexy black brassier while talking to me. 

I will slowly teach you the details in order after this. So that you can win the Devil King War to decide the next devil king. 

Devil king war? 

I got a bad premonition from hearing that disquieting keywords. 

S-somehow......I get the feeling that it won’t be a peaceful process. 

Yes. It’s a battle for deciding who will ascend to the throne of the devil king. It’s a war. 

Haah! By that senpai means that I’ll have to do other battles like just now!  

Senpai put her hands on her back and hooked the bra strap in place. Her movement was extremely bewitching. 

No, it won’t be like the previous fight. 

I’m glad. Even if I had more than one lives, it wouldn’t be enough if I had to continue doing something like that. 

It won’t be that kind of child’s play, but a real battle. It will be a real fight against the strongest devils who possess their own Devil King arcana......each of them is unequalled monster in their own right. There is no guarantee that you’ll be able to keep your life. 

That’s even more horrible!! 

Err, isn’t there a more peaceful way to do this......like discussion, or a vote.... 

Lizel-senpai kept sitting on the bed while bending forward. And then she stood up and pulled up her panty. 

For an instant it felt like I could get a glimpse of her butt. 

Lizel-senpai turned around to look at me whose mind was going blank and smiled reassuringly. 

It’ll be fine. You won’t fight alone. 

Eh  

Lizel-senpai fixed her garter belt around her waist and placed her right foot on the sofa before starting to wear her black stocking. 

A devil king candidate can have retainers that are called as card. For example like that Geld. 

Now that she mentioned it, 

Geld......that guy is a card of that devil king candidate called Aspite, the World arcana he is like his retainer isn’t he  

If I remembered correctly the person himself also said something like that. 

That’s right. That’s why I have a request. 

A request  

I want you to make me your card. 

Senpai? Becoming my card? 

No no, I’m just an amateur who was a normal human until last week. In contrast Lizel-senpai was a considerably powerful person. It was mentioned how she was scouted to be the World’s queen. Someone like me wasn’t suitable for her. 

But, this kind of thing......normally shouldn’t the master be the stronger one in the equation  

Yes. You’re right. 

Then ? 

Because, you will become strong. 

Lizel-senpai answered casually. 

I will train you to obtain strength that is worthy as a devil king more than anyone. 

I was dumbfounded. 

You means......I will become senpai’s disciple  

No, you will still be my master even then. I want to become Yuuto’s card, your trump card. I want to serve Yuuto and become a strength that pushes you up to become the devil king. Training you is also a part of that. 

Lizel-senpai connected the stocking with the garter belt. 

It was the completion of a sexy lingerie show. However right now I didn’t have the composure to enjoy the beautiful and provocative body before my eyes. 

No no no no no! Impossible impossible impossible! Even before this I would already die around this time if not for senpai’s help you know!  

It would be bad for me to stay longer here. 

It would be disappointing for dad and mom, but I would relinquish this arcana and returned to my former ordinary life. 

I got down from the bed. 

I’m thankful for senpai’s offer, but I’m just an amateur.... 

Eh? Where is my uniform? 

Yes, you’re an amateur. You don’t have any knowledge or mana. Until this morning that is. 

Lizel-senpai stood in front of me and stared with a serious gaze at me. 

But, you have caught a glimpse of the depth of magic and a fragment of the devil world. There is no more going back for you. 

Senpai......how can you place that much confidence on me  

You heard the voice of the arcana. 

That’s because I’m a devil king candidate ? 

Senpai shook her head to left and right. 

Even a devil king candidate normally cannot hear the arcana’s voice. You are loved by the arcana. That’s one of the reasons. 

One of the reasons......is there any other reasons? 

Besides even if the arcana can teach magic, it will depend on the person himself to be able to understand and use it immediately. Yuuto, you were able to use Barricade and Figa without any trouble even though you had only just learned them. In other words you have the talent for it. Besides.... 

Lizel-senpai’s cheeks reddened slightly. Her confident attitude that was full of composure until now was suddenly reversed into a bit of shyness with what she told him next. 

That’s......our body’s affinity seems to also match well. 

It felt like my heart was shot. 

It made me wanted to question that perhaps this was also magic. 

I thought that I would do anything she asked me if it was now. 

Lizel-senpai......I’m ? 

Suddenly the door opened with a sound. 

Senpaaai! Are you ‘snip snap’ finisheed  

P-pardon us, pardon us......desu desu. 

Two female students entered the waiting room. 

Lizel-senpai sighed in annoyance seeing the two. 

Miyabi, Reina, I told you two that I’ll be the one doing the talking. 

Hahaaa, because we can’t wait anymore, so ‘bam’ here we are. Ehehehe. 

The one who said that was the girl with blond hair and twintail. She wore her uniform totally casually with stylishness and a lot of exposure. She also wore showy accessories and makeup. 

She was a gal. 

I’m Yuugaoze Miyabi-! I’m from class 1-D, a gal. Nice to meetcha! 

Her bright smile was dazzling. The same with her valley of her breasts that could be glimpsed from the middle of her shirt. 

What should I say here? She was an energetic person with breasts that looked like it would make her shirt’s button popped off. If it was the size of breast, then she might surpass Lizel-senpai. 

The other girl was a study in contrast. 

She was short and the curve of her body was also modest. She was most likely a middle school student. 

Err, err, Reina’s name is, Koiwai Reina. Reina is second year student in the middle school......e-err~, Reina is an incompetent person but, please take care of her desu desu. 

The silver long haired girl bowed deeply. 

As for this girl, she was adorable like a small animal. She was already at her wits’ end just from giving a greeting and acting all flustered. 

On the other hand Yuugaoze wasn’t bashful at the slightest. She brought her face close to mine and grinned widely. 

Then Yuuto? Will you do the ritual to recruit us as your cards formally? Let’s do it quickly, snip snip. 

This person, she was using a lot of sound effect when talking since just now....... 

Err......card’s ritual you said, Yuugaoze-san  

Then Miyabi pouted. 

Too stiffff! Like a toy going ‘clack clack’. You can call me Miyabi, Mi – ya – bi! 

She winked and made a peace sign in front of her face. Certainly she had been calling me Yuuto already even though this is our first time meeting each other, so I guess I could call her Miyabi too. 

Got it, Miyabi. But before making anyone my card, I also still don’t know anything about the Devil King War so.... 

Eeee! Hey senpai, you still haven’t talked about it with Yuuto  

Miyabi looked dissatisfied. Lizel-senpai folded her arms and sighed. 

We would already do the formal contract around this time if you two didn’t rush in here. 

Reina jerked and trembled, then she bowed her head and said?I’m sorry? repeatedly. 

However Miyabi showed no remorse at all and brought her face closer toward mine again. 

Well, doesn’t matter. Hey, Yuuto. You have heard about how devil king candidate have cards right? We’re a really good deal you know! You can call us high quality products! Now, decide it with a bang already! 

W-wait a second please. Because, what you are asking is like for everyone to become my subordinates right  

Yup. Well, rather than calling us subordinates......we’ll be more like retainers or battle strength......ah? 

Miyabi grinned widely and pushed up her breasts with her hands and twisted her waist. 

Or like slaves? If you make me your card, you can do whatever you like with me. 

W-whatever, I like! She said! 

Miyabi! 

Lizel-senpai called Miyabi’s name chidingly. 

Eee, because that’s true isn’t it? A card is going to offer their body and heart to their master, and it’s all the more true for the Lovers arcana. 

Yes it is, but be a little more delicate in the way you’re saying it. That’s unrefined. 

Sheesh, senpai is too overly seriously geeez? 

She looked aside and stuck out her tongue. 

However it seemed that Lizel-senpai had also anticipated that. 

Miyabi? Is there something that you want to say to me  

Nooope. I’m just thinking here that it will be faster to use our charm. No boy will be able to resist if we push him like that, that’s aaall? 

You won’t be trusted if you’re acting like that. Besides Yuuto is different from other men. 

Miyabi turned toward me and then she unbuttoned even more of the buttons of her shirt that was already showing her cleavage from the start. She opened her collar and her breasts spilled out from their restraint. The cleavage and bulges of her breasts that were pressed on each other were exposed even more. Her pink bra was visible now. 

There’s no such thing you know? Because he’s a boy mon. Of course he want to do lewd thing with a girl, aren’t you  

She gave me an upward gaze with a fawning expression. 

My heart almost yielded under the attack. However , 

No......please let me think about it for a while. 

Eh  

I still don’t know anything about this academy and about Devil King War. If I make you three my cards, perhaps it will affect your life or destiny from here on won’t it? In that case, it’s not something that I should shoulder so thoughtlessly like that. 

.... 

The frivolous grin vanished from Miyabi’s expression. 

Perhaps she was feeling put off by me? I continued even while thinking that. 

But, for you to insist becoming my card like that, then perhaps I too have some kind of potential in me. That’s why, I want to learn about this academy and the devil king matter first, consider it carefully, before I give my answer. Is that alright with you  

Miyabi was staring fixedly at me with a clear gaze. 

Hmph......certainly, he might be different from other men. 

It was mysterious. Even though Miyabi’s appearance hadn’t changed any, her atmosphere was changing to feel more intellectual. 

There was a hint of nobility and even elegance that was coming from her. 

Was this Miyabi’s true face? 

But in the next instant, she showed me a grin that looked thoughtless once more. 

Can’t be helped. Then I’ll consider it as a period to make my appeal for a while  

When I moved my gaze to Reina next, 

Reina too, Reina too will wait until Yuuto-san has make your decision. But, please don’t hesitate to rely on Reina even before that. After all Reina is Yuuto-san’s ally! 

She said that with an angelic smile. Though it was strange to liken a devil to an angel. 

Err, really really, if Yuuto-san need anything, please tell Reina no matter what it is. Are you tired? Are you hungry perhaps? Ah......how about Reina show Yuuto-san around the academy  

Reina, you’re middle school student right  

Lizel-senpai’s calm retort made Reina’s shoulders dropped in dejection. 

......desu desu. 

Lizel-senpai suddenly let tension left her shoulders and, 

Then, let’s do the formal contract when you are resolved to make us your cards. We will give you a lot of lectures until then. 

Yes, thank you very much......also, there is one thing that I want to ask. 

What might it be  

Just now, Lizel-senpai said that I have talent but......Lizel-senpai looks like someone who might be popular, and there are also other devil king candidates......then why will you choose a mere human like me  

Lizel-senpai folded her arms and stared at me with a kind gaze. 

Our ancestors has been serving the Lovers arcana for generations until now. 

Aa, I see. So they were like samurai who had served a feudal lord for generations......so that’s why , 

But, that’s not all. It’s also my own desire. 

Eh  

Senpai took one step, two steps toward me. 

I learned something from the conversation this morning. You have a strong heart that won’t yield no matter how powerful the opponent is, and also a heart that will keep resisting even against an opponent that you aren’t a match against. 

Th-that’s just......me being reckless. 

You also have a heart that love justice. You are someone who can get angry and fight for other people’s sake. It’s really hard to find that kind of devil king candidate. 

Her face was close. But her breasts were even closer than that. 

Haha......isn’t that a flaw for devil  

No. I dislike ruling the world using only fear and violence. I refuse to live in a world that only has the sense of value and desire of a single person imposed on it. 

Senpai.... 

Her eyes were serious. 

Certainly fear and violence are necessary. But it’s no good to rely on only those things. Love for others has to be there too. That’s why the next devil king......it has to be you, Yuuto. 

Her largely bulging breasts first touched my chest. 

The Lovers arcana in your possession......that’s the only devil king that possess the power of love. 

Devil king, of love? 

Reina raised her hand to be allowed to talk. 

The meaning of Lovers arcana is connection between people......it’s bond desu desu. Also ? 

Miyabi interrupted and continued after Reina’s words. 

Passion and choice isn’t it? There is also.... 

She glanced toward Lizel. 

Fate encounter. And then hope toward the future. 

Hope, toward the future. 

I have said this too just now, we can’t accept a ruling that is only using violence and fear. We wish to serve a king who will allow us to hope for a future where the world is ruled with the power of love. 

Senpai.... 

My devil senpai whispered to me with an angelic smile. 

This encounter, is something fated......that’s what I believe.
