Maou Gakuen no Hangyakusha - Volume 2 - Chapter 1

Chapter 1 - Devil King Candidate of Devil 

(TN: Devil king=魔王, maou. Devil=悪魔, akuma) 

Part 1 

It was the next week after the battle against Aspite(アスピーテ). 

Then the class today is over. Everyone, please be careful on your way home. 

The one who said that while smiling gently was Nakano Tsuruko-sensei(中野鶴子). She was a beauty with a calm atmosphere. The way she talked and taught was also elegant. 

There will be a small test about the history of torture and method of execution next week, so please review the lessons well. 

However it doubled the mismatched feeling and the dreadfulness of the Torture and Execution lesson that she was teaching. 

Even so as expected from the academy of devil race, the lesson was just too peculiar. 

The lessons were covering a lot of topics from direct things like magic, martial art, assassination, till indirect things like the way to rule over human, territory management, politics and economics, strategy, tactic, and propaganda. 

Even among the devil race academies, this Ginsei Academy(銀星学園)--aka devil king academy was literally an academy that educated the leadership class including the devil king himself. That might be why there were a lot of lessons here that would be useful for ruling and managing. 

But, sometimes there were also normal lessons like modern Japanese or math. Though these normal lessons only highlighted the abnormality even more. 

But setting that aside, the class was over now. 

As always there was no classmate who would talk to me. 

No one would meet my eyes since the incident where I burned the classroom. This was better than receiving hostility or harassment openly, but this still felt a bit lonely. 

Well, fortunately there was the daily routine of meeting and receiving special training from Lizel-senpai and Miyabi in the palace after school. Thanks to that I didn’t feel that lonely or depressed. 

I walked toward Miyabi’s seat with my bag in one hand. 

Miyabi, let’s go to the palace. 

However Miyabi didn’t give me any reply. 

She was looking dazed while continuing to stare at a single desk. She still didn’t notice me even when I was standing in front of her. 

When I looked down at her, I could see the cleavage of her breasts clearly from her exposed chest. My focus almost got absorbed into the skin colored valley, but I firmly held myself back. 

Oi, Miyabi? What’s wrong with you  

Eh? 

She finally noticed me and raised her face. 

Hyaa! Yuuto appeared out of nowhere!  

You really only noticed me just now......what’s the matter  

T-there’s really nothing! Or rather, you’re really something! You suddenly come out ‘puff’ and stick all over me without me noticing! 

I don’t come that close to you. More importantly, aren’t we going to the palace  

Heh? Ah, I-I’m coming! Coming coming!! 

Her wording sounded somewhat lewd, but I purposefully ignored it and headed toward the waiting room of Lovers. Though I called it palace, it was just a single room inside this building. 

But, I heard there was also other devil king candidates that built a detached building for themselves on the academy’s ground. It seemed to depend on the person’s strength, financial strength, status, and standing whether they did that or not. 

It was something that I who was a devil king candidate of the puny Lovers and also a human in addition shouldn’t even wish for. 

I arrived at the Lovers’ palace. When I opened the door, 

Oh, Yuuto. And Miyabi too. 

Lizel-senpai was sitting on a chair near the window while enjoying tea. 

Senpai was beautiful too today. 

Whether it was her glossy black hair, or her blue eyes that were shining like jewels, or her face that represented flawless beauty, or her body that personified female beauty and eros, all of them were the best. 

Even if this was just a single room in a school building, it was a grand palace for me just with Lizel-senpai’s presence in it. 

I’m sorry I’m late. Excuse me. 

Yahhooo!! Nooow let’s do our best too ‘gyaruu’ today!! 

Lizel-senpai smiled at me with her usual beauty and gentleness. 

Fufu, good afternoon. But, this room is Yuuto’s palace, so it should be us who say excuse me. Also Miyabi, there is the proper decorum even between close friends. You should at least say your greeting properly. 

Miyabi pouted and looked aside. 

Sheesh really, senpai is ’gachi gachi’stiff  as usual. 

In the end Miyabi didn’t say the proper greeting. Lizel-senpai sighed at that, but she still prepared tea for the two of us. It was a black tea with slightly sweet aroma. 

That’s a nice smell. 

It’s a new brand from Mariage Freres. I’m glad you like it. 

I could only say ?Heee? because I didn’t know about that brand at all. It was pathetic. 

Hmph, this is also nice but, I think I like Marco Polo better. 

What was that? Marco Polo was the old man from the book the Travels of Marco Polo wasn’t it? Perhaps she misspoke Milk Bolo((ミルクボーロ)? (TN: A snack brand in Japan) 

Don’t tell me......you know about this tea Miyabi  

Heh? Well, yeah.....wait, why are you that surprised  

Because that doesn’t fit your image. You feel just like a lady. 

What does that mean! Even I am a Yuugaoze(夕顔瀬) although I look like this, a margrave’s.... 

Miyabi’s(雅) tension was gradually decreasing while she was talking. Her voice was getting smaller. In the end she stopped talking and looked down. 

What’s wrong Miyabi  

Nothing.... 

As I thought, it was strange. Let’s try asking her more I thought that, but, 

Both of you, sit down already. I’m thinking to do a slightly new training today. 

Lizel-senpai said, so we obediently sat on the sofa. 

We sat with Lizel-senpai in front of me and Miyabi at my left. 

The voices of the students doing club activity at the schoolyard could be heard from the window at my right. When I looked there, it seemed to be the track and field club. There were normal clubs even in this devil king academy. 

But my training wasn’t a club activity. It was special training as a next devil king candidate. 

Then Lizel-senpai. What kind of training this new training is  

Before that there is something I want to ask the Lovers arcane. Can it display the effect of Healing Lovers in number  

Number......  

Yes. When we’re supplying Yuuto with mana, how much mana can Yuuto obtain in the end......I want to check that. 

I see. Certainly I could somehow feel that I was receiving mana, but I didn’t understand at all just how much it was. 

Besides, the amount of mana that was stocked inside my body was also unclear. 

In the fight against Aspite the other day, Yuuto was luckily able to activate Infinite Lovers, but if your mana reach zero before that.... 

It would be my lost......wouldn’t it  

Exactly. Even stronger opponents will appear in the future. That’s why we too have to learn to be more tactical. First we have to learn about our own ability for that. 

As expected from Lizel-senpai! I didn’t think about something like that at all! 

I-is that so? This is really nothing big. Fufu  

She said that, but she actually looked like in a great mood. Her smile that looked like a little girl was really adorable. 

Wait, more importantly I tried asking my arcane quickly. 

Possible. Sharing information in numerical form. 

That’s what it said. 

When I told Lizel-senpai the arcana’s answer, Lizel-senpai put down her tea cup. 

Miyabi, try hugging Yuuto’s arm and share your mana. 

Eh? Right. 

Miyabi hugged my arm without any hesitation whatsoever. 

My arm was buried into the cleavage of her voluptuous breasts that stole my eyes in the classroom. 

O-oi, Miyabi-? 

I felt the soft and bouncy sensation from my elbow until my upper arm. 

Miyabi’s face was also close. Her sweet smelling breath blew on my neck. I unconsciously twisted my body. 

Auhn?! Don’t struggle! It feels......t-ticklish if you do that! 

Y-yeah......my bad? 

Miyabi pressed the enormous breasts that were her pride even more on my arm. She was even rubbing them on me. 

There was amazing elasticity within the softness. I could never have enough of this pleasant feeling no matter how many times I experienced it. 

Something soft flowed in from Miyabi’s breasts into me before long. 

This was Miyabi’s mana. 

It was sweet like candy, and yet it felt like it energized me. 

It was as though mana also embodied the characteristic of its owner. I was getting drunk with the sensation of Miyabi’s breasts from outside and the pleasant feeling from Miyabi’s mana in the inside. It was then the arcana’s voice resounded in my head. 

Mana supply 12000? 

MIyabi jumped in happiness when I said that number. 

Oo~, the number sound amazing! Far from a hundred, it reached ten thousand! Ten thousand-! It’s like Yuuto has recovered ‘dokan’ with a bang! 

Miyabi was rejoicing, but there was nothing to compare this result with, so it was completely unclear whether this number was a lot or not. 

Then, I’m next. 

Lizel-senpai stood up. 

Y-yes. Please take care of me. 

Just what is senpai planning to do? I thought she moved aside the table and stood in front of me. 

Yuuto. Can you flip up my skirt for me  

Eh  

Flipping up the skirt! 

That skirt flipping, the king of the mischief act toward girl that was done by children! 

I looked up questioningly at Lizel-senpai. She averted her gaze shyly in respond. 

That gesture and her troubled expression that was blushing with knitted eyebrows were adorable. 

D-don’t make me say it over and over......I want you, to flip my, skirt, and look at......my panty. 

No good. My heart was going to explode. 

I pinched the fringe of Lizel-senpai’s skirt and slowly lifted it up. 

......It felt like I was doing something really wrong. My hand was shaking. 

This wouldn’t be an accidental glimpse of panty, I was flipping up a skirt with my own hand to look at the panty underneath. It was exciting. 

Furthermore we were in the academy here. 

Even though I could hear the sound of students doing club activity outside, we were doing obscene thing like this. The immorality of this act was sending shivers into my spine. 

The skirt was lifted up like pulling up the curtain of the stage. 

Finally a wonderful view appeared from beneath it. 

The white panty under the black stocking. 

That transparency was doubling the indecency. 

When I observed closer, I could see the elaborate design of the panty. It was decorated with delicate laces. The panty looked really expensive. The material was slightly shiny. Surely it was made using the best material. 

This panty was undoubtedly worth dozens of my underwear. 

Here I go......Yuuto? 

Lizel-senpai’s hand quietly touched my head and it unexpectedly pushed me onto her crotch. 

Se-senpa gumuuuuh!  

I reflexively let go of the skirt and my sight suddenly got dark. My face was completely pushed into the skirt. I couldn’t see anything except senpai’s lower stomach. 

And then, my nose, cheeks, and lips felt the high quality texture of the smooth stocking. 

In addition to that sensation, senpai’s fragrance also filled my chest. 

The sweet fragrance that was like fruit invited me into the world of ecstasy in the blink of eye. 

Aa, I’m really......this is, really embarrassing......] 

Senpai’s whisper that was filled with shame reached my ears faintly. It made my blood boiled needlessly. 

Mana poured into my lips at the next moment. 

It contained a refined sweetness and high class fragrance. Various aromas entwined together with each other to form a taste that had complexity and depth in it it felt like I was actually tasting such sensation with my tongue. 

Mana supply 24000? 

After I said the number with a muffled voice, I could hear Miyabi’s angry voice. 

Wait! Double score! What does this mean!  

My head was let go and my face came out from under senpai’s skirt. 

When I looked up, I found Lizel-senpai’s satisfied face there. Perhaps it was just my imagination but, her face and skin were also looking glossy. 

Fufu, as I thought. 

As you thought......what  

Depending on the method, the amount of mana that can be supplied with Healing Lovers will differ. 

You mean it’s the difference of me doing ‘mugyuu’ to Yuuto with my breasts and senpai showing him your panty over your stocking while grinding Yuuto’s head ‘guri guri’ on it  

The way you say that is concerning but, that’s how it is. Your relationship with the partner is important when supplying mana. It’s important to trust and hold affection to the partner. On top of that, there is also the factor of how stimulating and exciting the act is. That feeling of exaltation and obscene intoxication will supply even stronger mana. 

In short, I would become even stronger by doing even more erotic thing with someone that I liked. 

Uu~, I see! Got it!! 

Miyabi suddenly flipped up her own skirt. 

She showed me her panty that had leopard print design without hiding anything. Furthermore it had the color of black pattern on pink background. 

Wait! Mi-Miyabi!! 

In other words if I do the same thing like senpai, the mana will increase ‘don’ till double! Isn’t that right!  

Was it that simple of a problem! 

I retorted like that inside my heart, but my eyes couldn’t move away from the pink leopard print panty! 

Why was this girl wearing an erotic panty that was this flashy! 

Certainly she had this gal image going for her! Even so its surface area was too tiny-! 

The crease at the bottom of the triangle shape made me imagined various things. Her curvy abdomen and the belly button above it also made my heart pounding hard. 

How is ittt? It get you even more excited than senpai’s panty right  

Wha-......!  

Lizel-senpai was clearly making an offended expression. 

That’s not true! It’s obvious that mine is more charming if compared with yours! 

And then this time senpai flipped her skirt by herself and showed me her lower body that was wrapped in stocking and her thin black panty. 

What do you think, Yuuto? Don’t you think it gives off a refined impression with the stocking over it? It’s really similar like when a noble lady of Heian era was talking with male from across a bamboo blind isn’t it  

I didn’t think that there wasn’t any refinement or anything like it at the time she showed it off by herself though....... 

There isn’t anything like that! Any boy should want to see something with more ’gatsu’impact ! Something with more ‘baaam’ like mine is better isn’t it? Yuuto!  

E-err......that’s? 

When I was at a loss of how to answer, Lizel-senpai pressed me even more. 

Miyabi is too direct. According to my investigation, a bit of refinement is necessary for the relationship between man and woman. Hiding it slightly like mine is will stimulate the imagination and excite man even more. 

Senpai, you usually used garter belt ain’tcha! 

Th-that’s.... 

Got it! It’s surely that! Some people would look up what a boy might like, found an article about what people are recently doing, believed the article easily, and then tried it out ‘dojaaan’. Senpai is like those people!! 

.... 

Lizel-senpai turned bright red and shook all over. She was smiling but, her eyes were a bit tearful. 

Y-you’re wrong mon! Th-that’s, a false accusation mon! 

......It was bull’s eye. What’s more her speech was regressing to be like a young child....... 

Late late, Reina is really sorry desu de ? 

Nice timing! 

The angel of salvation of our Lovers camp she was a devil though. 

Reina was rushing into the palace like a bunny that was in a hurry. 

Auh!  

And then the katana she was carrying on her back got stuck on the entrance and her body pitched forward before she rolled behind from the recoil. 

O-oi oi!! Reina! Are you okay!  

I rushed to the corridor in panic, but then I stiffened there. 

After all, Reina had splendidly toppled over and then came to a stop just when she was in the middle of rolling backward. 

She was falling with her bottoms pointing up, so her skin was exposed from the lower half of her back. 

Of course, her panty......was also completely laid bare. 

I would turn into a molester if I carelessly reached to her. 

Re-Reina is fine......au......Reina, fell again.... 

Reina muttered with a tearful voice while still laying on her back. 

I had to quickly lend her a hand to help her stood but......my hand stopped in the middle of reaching out to her. 

The reason was because the panty that protected Reina’s lower body......surpassed my imagination. 

It was the so called string panty. 

I completely thought that she would wear a childish panty with cartoon character printed on the back, but to think it was actually a string panty. 

Furthermore the color was purple. 

It was covering Reina’s small bottoms with even smaller cloth surface. Its surface area was even smaller than Miyabi’s leopard print panty. Furthermore the thin fabric was indirectly displaying the shape of her bottoms and her crotch. It hinted at an immoral sexual allure that was gave off from such young body. 

Hey Yuuto! How long are you going to stare at Reina’s panty!  

To think that Reina will go this far to make her appeal.... 

Miyabi and Lizel-senpai’s retort made Reina’s legs to jerk straight. She rolled quickly using the recoil and lifted up her body. 

Hawawawawah! Au au, e-, everyone saw it-!  

That’s......it would be strange if we didn’t see. That was....... 

I took the hand of Reina who looked like she would cry and made her got up on her feet. 

No, that’s......just a glimpse. 

Auuu......sorry......thank you so much, desu desu.... 

Miyabi pulled my arm to turn my focus on her. 

More importantly Yuuto! Which is better, me or senpai, choose ‘supa’ with no hesitation! 

No......that’s.... 

I couldn’t say it. 

Actually the instant I saw Reina’s panty, 

Mana supply 25000. Upper limit reached. 

The voice said to me! I couldn’t say that from my mouth!! 

Yuuto!! Be clear! 

Yuuto, you don’t need to be reserved. Make Miyabi see the reality. 

Wh-what should I do! 

Cold sweat burst all over my body. 

Was this a danger that was lurking within the ordinary day! Just when I was at a complete loss , 

Aa, aa, can you hear? Wait, I won’t be able to hear even if you reply back I guess. Hahahaha? 

This voice......Headmaster Gandou? 

The voice of Gandou Barbatos(岩洞バルバトス), the headmaster and also the current devil king came from the speaker that was set on the wall. 

Today I have a little bit of explanation about academy event to give. The devil king candidates are to gather in the gym at 8 PM! That’s all!! 

. 

Part 2 

If it was a normal school, I would have already gone home a long time ago at this time. It would be even more impossible for a teacher do something like calling students to gather at this time. 

Originally only the devil king candidates would attend, but Lizel-senpai and Miyabi were worried that there might be sudden attack just like at the unveiling, so they forcefully came along. 

The crest of Lovers was shining faintly under my feet. 

When I looked around, the crests of other devil king candidates were also floating within the darkness. 

From a brief count, there seemed to be less than twenty crests in total. 

Apparently these crests were also to show the attendance. The crests were lacking showed that there were candidates who were absent. 

However I couldn’t see the figures of the devil king candidates who were here. My eyes could only see the crests that were shining in the wide area. 

Even so, it felt like the gym was wider than usual.... Perhaps the space here was actually distorted to make the area bigger. 

But even that was something possible for this devil king academy. 

Yooo, ladies and gentlemen! Good for you to come!! 

Headmaster Gandou showed up with his usual carefree attitude. 

For a moment I wondered if he was floating in the air, but it seemed he was standing on a stage. 

And? What’s your business that you call us here? I have to cancel a work to come here. 

One of the crests shined brighter and illuminated the voice’s owner like a footlight. 

The Star’s devil king candidate, Hoshigaoka Stella(星ガ丘ステラ). 

At my fight against Aspite, she offered to work together with me. I thought that she gave the offer because of her good will, but when I heard about her offer in more detail, it included a condition of giving Lizel-senpai to her. 

There was a rumor that her true strength was monstrous, but I didn’t understand what she was actually planning in her head. She was an opponent that I couldn’t measure. 

Hahhahhaa. Don’t worry! After all this is a big event for all of you students! That is to say~? 

Headmaster Gandou thrust out his fist. The mana that was emitted from that fist drew letters above his head. 

. 

Devil King Academy Athletic Festival!! Is Going to be Held!! 

. 

Several crests vanished from the floor at the next moment. 

Eh! W-wait! Why are you guys going homeeee!  

The headmaster called at them to come back, but then several more crests vanished. 

Oi oi, you guys aren’t upbeat enough even though you’re still young. Even though I’m planning to prepare some reward too.... 

And, what’s this reward you’re talking about  

Headmaster Gandou answered proudly at Stella’s question. 

I’m still in the middle of considering it! But I’ll give meal tickets for the cafeteria for the winning group! 

Even more crests vanished. 

W-wait! Come back! I’m begging you!! 

Headmaster begged while looking like he wanted to cry. Seeing his figure made me questioned whether he was really the current devil king. 

Th-that’s right! I’m also thinking to give special reward for the MVP of the winning team! 

That’s why, what’s this reward  

I’m telling you I’m still thinking about it! Well, this place is more or less an academy! Teacher too will want to give good grade to the students who cooperate with this kind of event, that’s just human nature! I’m a devil though! 

He said that and laughed ‘wahahaha’. On the other hand Stella’s face was sullen. 

Well, fine. I myself won’t be absent if it’s an event. 

Stella was an active popular idol. This event seemed like it could be good to attract fans. However it didn’t seem possible to open this event to the public. 

What about you Neith  

The figure of the devil king candidate that Stella addressed emerged from the darkness. 

Neith Carnac(ネイト・カルナック) with her blonde hair and brown skin answered with her usual bashful look. 

Y-yes......if it’s not a fight, but sports......I’ll join, perhaps. 

Was this person really a devil king candidate? It felt like she was avoiding to fight. 

Err, I’ll also participate. 

A girl with a voice that I had never heard before emerged from the darkness. 

Ou! Isn’t this Kouma Ruki(好摩ルキ) of Judgment! 

She was a slender beautiful girl with medium length light blue hair. From her school emblem, she seemed to be a first year like me. The word sweet befitted her slightly shy expression. She only looked like a normal high school girl. A girl like this was also a devil king candidate? 

Noticing my gaze, Kouma Ruki looked my way and slightly bowed with a smile. 

Not only she looked normal, she was polite....... 

When I returned the bow, Kouma Ruki smiled affably and walked toward me. 

Hey, you’re the devil king candidate of Lovers aren’t you  

Eh? Y-yeah. That’s right. 

Hee~, you’re the first human to be a devil king candidate right? That’s amazing~. Ah, IBoku am Kouma Ruki. Call me Ruki  

She was so cheerful toward someone who she had only met. In addition her distance was close. 

It felt like her distance to him was a step closer than a distance of a normal conversation. Because of that I was able to observe that beautiful face well. Her face was small and delicately made. Her eyelashes were also long. 

 >Also......this didn’t really matter but, this was my first time seeing a girl calling herself with ‘boku’. 

I’m Morioka Yuuto(盛岡雄斗). Best regards. 

So, is Yuuto-kun going to participate  

Eh? Err.... 

I reflexively turned toward Lizel-senpai. 

Lizel-senpai nodded while staring fixedly at behind me she didn’t take off her gaze from the Judgment’s devil king candidate at all. 

I looked up at Headmaster Gandou. 

Lovers’ devil king candidate, Morioka Yuuto will also participate! 

Headmaster Gandou nodded in satisfaction when I said I would participate. 

How’s that? Lovers’ devil king candidate will also join. You guys aren’t going to be left behind by a human aren’t you? Even though you guys are devil king candidates who want to reign above all devils! 

Ah, this headmaster, he was using me as a dupe!! 

I’m gonna join too yeahhh! Yayyyy!! 

I was surprised by the voice tone that didn’t suit the mood. 

The voice’s owner was a man who I never saw before. He was tall, more than 180 cm. He had blonde hair and darkish skin from sunburn. His carefree bright smile seemed to say that he was enjoying his life to the utmost. 

He body looked trained. Muscular chest could be seen peeking out from his unbuttoned uniform. When I looked at the emblem on his collar, it seemed he was a third year. 

Sure enough an event won’t start without me joining in it!! I’m totally fired up! I’m going to blaze up even now!! 

Headmaster Gandou folded his arms and stared at that man with an impressed face. 

Hahhahha. What a festive guy just like usual! That’s really promising! Devil’s devil king candidate, Mitsuishi Ibiza(三ツ石イザ)? 

Devil. 

That was Devil’s devil king candidate....... 

Everyone in this academy was devil race except me. And this man had the arcane of Devil among all this devils. Just what kind of devil he was? 

Leave it to me headmaster! I’m gonna make this into the best athletic festival! Just look forward to it headmaster!! 

Oo I see. That’s laudable! But, don’t get nearer than that! Also, don’t stare too much at me! 

Ee~, that’s cold of you headmaster! It’s fine! I won’t do anything! Right, everyone  

When Ibiza said that and looked around him, the crests of several people near him vanished. 

......Did they, run away? 

In other words they feared Ibiza.... 

Even the headmaster who was the current devil king acted warily toward him. So that meant......this devil king candidate of Devil called Ibiza possessed such terrifying power. 

But in contrast to the reaction of his surrounding, Ibiza himself was smiling brightly. 

Everyone is non-cooperative with the event eeeh. But, not me! Because, me and headmaster are completely in the same wavelength. Eh? Doesn’t that mean it’s already a done deal that I’ll be the next devil king  

Certainly, his carefree and irresponsible attitude might be similar with the headmaster. But, Ibiza’s clubber aura was amazing. The headmaster mysteriously didn’t give me any unpleasant feeling but......I didn’t know why, however Ibiza gave off an aura that made me didn’t want to go near him too much. 

Suddenly Ibiza turned toward me and grinned. 

Hey! Don’t you think so too! That I’ll be the next devil king!! 

......Why did he ask me something like that? 

I ? 

Don’t think so!! 

Behind me Miyabi replied loudly first than me. 

......Miyabi  

She was glaring at Ibiza with a pale expression and a gaze that was a mix of anger and fear. 

Ibiza was still smiling like before. It didn’t crumble at all even when he was yelled at. 

This guy......was he looking at Miyabi instead of me from the start? 

Eeee? What’s the matter, Miyabi-chan of Yuugaoze  

Don’t screw around-! You, what have you done to my subordinates-!  

Mi-Miyabi  

I unconsciously shrank back from how menacing Miyabi acted. 

However Ibiza answered pleasantly as though it was just a passing breeze. 

Ah! You mean, my cards  

Two girls showed up from the darkness behind Ibiza. 

Re......Rebecca! Maki!! 

Miyabi’s complexion changed. 

The two girls were staring at Miyabi with faint smile. 

Isn’t this Yuugaoze-sama. Long time no see. 

Rebecca! Where have you gone until now! All the assets and territory of your house are gone you know! Even all of you family members are sent back to the devil world! 

However the girl called Rebecca laughed mockingly at Miyabi. 

Hahaha, I know. Because, we were the one who presented all those to our lord. 

Presen.....ted  

This time the other girl, Maki smiled sexily while hugging Ibiza’s arm. 

We are Ibiza-sama’s card. We offered him everything that can be offered. Our peerage, our fortune, and even our body......  

Wh-what are you saying! Maki too, get a hold of yourself! 

It’s not just Rebecca. I also offered my everything. To this devil among devils......Mitsuishi Ibiza-sama. We’ll also withdraw from the academy soon. We aren’t noble anymore after all. 

Sweat trickled down Miyabi’s cheek. 

Are you......sane  

Yes, we’re going to return the devil world and get sold to some nobles over there as slave. Aa......to think I will feel this happy to offer everything I have to Ibiza-sama.... 

The two snuggled on Ibiza with expression of ecstasy. 

T-that’s not happiness or anything! That man is only making use of you two before selling you away after you have nothing else to offer you know! Then you won’t be his card but just someone else’s slave you know!  

Miyabi pleaded with tearful eyes, but that only became a target for the two’s ridicule. 

You really don’t get it......foolish woman. 

We don’t need to fuss about you anymore. It’s refreshing. 

Wha-.... 

Miyabi gritted her teeth. Her shoulders were shaking. 

This is......just what in the world was going on? 

I looked toward Lizel-senpai in search for answer. 

However Lizel-senpai only shook her head slightly with a grave face. Even Lizel-senpai couldn’t comprehend this situation. In other words, it would be better to not do anything drastic here. 

However Miyabi showed no sign of calming down. 

......Everything is your doing right  

The tone of Miyabi’s voice was filled with dark anger that was unthinkable coming from her who was usually bright and cheery. 

Mitsuishi Ibiza answered with a wide smile. 

That’s a complete misunderstanding! I’m only working hard to achieve my objective. These girls, my cards are devoting their affection and supporting me who am working hard like that! I can spread my wings with my cards’ love!! 

!! 

Magic circle formed under Miyabi’s feet. Next two magic circles flowed inside Miyabi’s body. 

Miyabi! Wa ? 

Miyabi already rushed forward when I was halfway telling her to wait. 

IBIZAAAAAAAA!! 

She approached Ibiza with a speed that was in a different level from her speed when we trained. However Maki and Rebecca who were hugging Ibiza stood on Miyabi’s way. 

What’re you doing to master-!  

Maki unleashed the flame magic Figa while Rebecca fired ice magic IzaFreezing  from close range. 

However Miyabi dodged them as though she was dancing. 

UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! 

She avoided the two and punched at Ibiza with the momentum of her rotation adding into her force. 

!  

However her full power attack was stopped by Ibiza’s palm. 

Uhyoooh! Flying into my chest by yourself like this! It’s the best yahoo!! 

Do-don’t screw with ? 

Miyabi’s balance crumbled when Ibiza twisted his hand. He controlled Miyabi’s body as though toying with her on the palm of his hand and hugged her into his arms. 

Le-let go!! 

Miyabi-chan. Won’t you be my card too  

Haa! What are you? 

If you do that then you’ll obtain the best life you know? You’ll be pretty happy. After all, you’re gonna be loved by this me! 

Don’t screw around! I’m the princess of the Lovers!! 

Miyabi desperately struggled, but she was unable to escape from Ibiza’s arms. 

You’re really hopeless Miyabi-chan. Okayyy!! I’ll give you a bit of push on the back so that you can become honest! 

Ibiza’s eyes shined red and red magic circle spread on the floor. 

Lovers arcana’s voice sounded in my head in that instant. 

Warning, threat is approaching princess card. Danger level 12. Recommending swift retreat. 

Danger level 12! 

Aspite’s World Revision had threat level 9 you know! This was even more dangerous than that! 

However there wasn’t any visible effect that seemed to be that dangerous. 

......Did he fail in his magic activation? 

No, I certainly felt a magic activating. 

And yet, I couldn’t see anything. I didn’t know what Ibiza was trying to do. For some reason it didn’t feel like my defensive or offensive magic would be useful here. 

What was this! This anxiety!! 

And then there was a wicked air that induced the urge to vomit. It was terrifying and sinister. 

What in the world was this.... 

N-no......stop? 

Ibiza whispered softly with a coaxing voice as though to reassure the scared Miyabi. 

Now, free your true self and fall in love with me. And then offer your love to me. 

Ibiza brought his face closer to Miyabi to kiss her cheek. 

My patience reached its limit at this time. 

I lit fire to the mana like a chain reaction and activated it explosively. Armored, Maximize, and Stride activated in parallel and I charged toward Ibiza. 

REMOVE YOUR HAND FROM HERRRR!! 

Ibiza only turned his eyes toward me. His lips were tugging a composed smile. His lips approached Miyabi even more. 

Mana swelled explosively inside me. 

Infinite Lovers!! 

My speed rose dramatically. 

!  

The composed Ibiza showed a surprised expression. He quickly let go of Miyabi and jumped backward. 

My fist punched empty air. 

However, that impact grazed Ibiza and destroyed the wall behind him. 

I didn’t pursue deeply and glared at Ibiza with my fist still outstretched and Miyabi behind me. 

Miyabi is my precious card! Don’t lay your hand on her!! 

Yuuto.... 

A happy voice came from behind. But I couldn’t look back. The opponent was a devil king candidate. An instant of carelessness would be fatal. 

Hee, so this is the human devil king candidate. So what they said that you defeated the World’s Aspite isn’t a joke. 

If you make a pass to my card even more than this ? 

Aa, come to think of it, Miyabi-chan is your card  

My whole body was wrapped in tension. 

The opponent was the Devil’s devil king candidate. There was no doubt that he had some kind of special power. 

But, I didn’t know what kind of ability it was. 

I clenched my fist and sharpened my senses. 

I seee. Well, I don’t really mind that she’s your card. 

Heh  

Mitsuishi Ibiza easily recognized it. 

It felt anticlimax. I thought he would declare that she belonged to him or that he would snatch her away. 

Because humans belong to me. And, you’re a human. In other words your possession belongs to me. That means~! In the end, Miyabi-chan belongs to me!! Perfect! No problem!! 

Wha.... 

What is this guy saying? 

I’m tolerant and deeply loving! Deeper than even the bottom of the sea! Whether it’s will, thought, principle, or whatever, all those things doesn’t matter. Aaalll of them will come to like me without exception! And so, eeeverything belongs to me! 

......I don’t really get what you’re saying though. 

Hahaha, don’t worry! I can love even inferior creature with low intelligent! 

Love......you say  

Yep yep yep! Love isn’t just the special privilege of Lovers! I know how ignorant and useless human is, even how stupid they are. But even knowing that, I’ll still love them and take possession of them. You humans don’t need to worry about anything. Rest assured, everything will go well if you just leave them to me. 

What a self-centered guy. There was a limit even in being egoist. 

Something like that isn’t love at all! Besides, I don’t remember ever being yours! Just who do you think belong to you huh!  

Everyone other than me. 

A magic circle formed in front of Ibiza. 

This time the magic was different from before, I could see it properly. But, this was , 

Advanced flame magic.... 

A magic that I still couldn’t use, FidezenonEarth Scorching Devil Flame ! 

Warning, threat is approaching. Danger level 8. Recommending swift retreat. 

Kuh......could I match that! 

Come on Lovers’ candidate! Don’t be scared! Come at me! I’ll give you the best welcome! 

Kuh! 

Don’t falter!! I’m going to, protect Miyabi, my precious people! 

*Clap clap* Hands were clapped and Headmaster Gandou intruded into the space between me and Ibiza that was filled with tension. 

Aah sheesh, okay. It’s over, over. 

Eh  

The critical situation’s atmosphere vanished from the headmaster’s sentence for some reason. 

If you’re gonna fight anyway then do it at the athletic festival. The guests will be happier with that. 

Ibiza shrugged and smiled cynically. 

What’s that. A public execution you mean? That’s the best ain’t it! 

No no, you can use magic in the athletic festival, but attacking the opponent directly is forbidden. If you do that, the festival will descend into bloodbath and the event will lose its uniqueness. That’ll be boring. 

Eee, that’s fine ain’t it! That sounds fun! 

It’ll be fun for you guys, but it’s going to be troublesome if all the ordinary students are slaughtered. There’ll be guests from outside coming here too this time, the purpose of this is to give them entertainment. And so, go home. Shoo shoo. 

The headmaster shooed us away as though it was a hassle. 

His intercession came out of nowhere, but honestly it was a big help. 

Ibiza scoffed condescendingly at me and left with Maki and Rebecca in his arms. 

Let’s go Yuuto. Miyabi too. 

Lizel-senpai urged us and we headed toward the gym’s exit. 

Miyabi seemed concerned by the girls that Ibiza led away, but she followed behind us reluctantly. 

Just what had happened between that Mitsuishi Ibiza and Miyabi? 

I was concerned about that more than anything. 

Aa......Miyabi  

I tried asking Miyabi when we were outside. But in that timing, 

Ah, Yuuto-kun. I was nervous for a moment there at how it would turn out~? 

For some reason Kouma Ruki caught up with us and talked to me. 

Eh? Aa......that was just, how the situation developed. 

And then when I was distracted by Ruki, 

I, I’m, going home first-!! 

Miyabi ran away and passed through the schoolyard. She was gone from view in the blink of eye. 

I didn’t understand what happened and reflexively looked at Lizel-senpai. 

That Miyabi......what’s going on with her  

Lizel-senpai stared at the direction Miyabi vanished to and frowned. 

Actually something strange had been going on from some time ago. But it went back to usual after Yuuto was chosen as a devil king candidate, so it slipped my mind but.... 

From some time ago? 

That Miyabi......did she have some kind of connection with that Mitsuishi Ibiza? 

Sorry, is it because I talked to you  

Ruki looked apologetic. I shook my head at her. 

No, it’s not Ruki’s fault. More important, do you have some kind of ? 

No. I just wanted to try talking to you a little......oops, I have to go home too. Then, Yuuto-kun. I hope we’ll be in the same group at the athletic festival! 

Ruki showed an innocent smile and left. 

......So there is also a normal girl like that even among the devil candidates. 

Normal  

Yes. She is bright and friendly, for some reason she feels like a human girl. 

I......guess. 

Senpai sounded doubtful for some reason. Did I say something wrong? 

While I was pondering that, Lizel-senpai started talking with a reluctant look. 

Perhaps you haven’t noticed but......that child, is a boy you know  

A boy, that word, as far as I knew it should mean a male though.... 

You’re joking right  

It’s not like I have ever confirmed it with my own eyes but, it’s true. 

.... 

As expected from a devil king candidate. Should I say that here? 

No! That wasn’t in the level of a boy dressed like a girl though! The structure of his face, his small hands, his slender fingers, he was completely a female no matter where I looked though! Certainly it felt like he had no breasts but, wasn’t it discrimination if I pointed that out! Even small breasts weren’t bad! Everyone was different but none of them was bad! Wait just what was I thinking? 

I’m relieved seeing your face. It looks like Yuuto has no preference for homosexuality. 

I, I don’t have any preference like that! 

Shit, the topic veered off because of Ruki’s fault. The problem right now wasn’t that, 

More importantly senpai. About Miyabi.... 

Yes, it’s a bit worrying......let’s try asking her tomorrow after school. 

I agreed with that suggestion and then I got sent back to my house like usual with senpai’s car. I still felt like I kept troubling senpai even though this was the usual routine. 

And then the next day Miyabi was absent from the academy.
