I Became an Academy Baldo User

165 – Great Demon (1)

“Your Highness!! Majesty!!!”

Euclid was stabbed.

I couldn’t see it because of Nana’s huge body blocking my view, but looking at the scream and the angle just a moment ago, it was definitely true.

She hurriedly ran to Euclid, forgetting that she was leading the sword, but a sound coming from behind her made her stop in her tracks.

“… She lost the fight, but achieved her goal, so should we consider her a draw? “Then let’s meet again next time.”

Draw? It was nonsense not worth listening to. The enemy accomplished their objective, but all we got was one useless puppet.

Calling this a draw was just sarcasm, nothing more, nothing less.

I was so angry that I kicked the puppet that Ganryu had already left, even though I knew it was meaningless.

I was suddenly filled with skepticism, wondering what would change if I did something like this, but there was no time to get lost in sentimentality.

When she ignored the puppet rolling around on the floor and ran to Euclid held by Nana, Euclid was thrown away as if Nana, who was holding her, had kicked something from her.

“Ugh!!”

I wondered what on earth had happened again, so I looked at Euclid that Nana was holding just a moment ago….

“What is that…?” ?”

I noticed that instead of blood, something like black smoke was constantly coming out from the dagger stuck in Euclid’s chest.

‘… ‘Is it Magi?’

This is not the first time I have seen demonic energy become visible, but it is the first time I have felt it so clearly and intensely.

The intense magical energy that erupted from his chest turned the snow-covered ground black, and the trees rotted rapidly and collapsed.

The surrounding environment changed due to the strong demonic energy, but it did not happen this quickly.

It took at least a few days, if not years, and I couldn’t even imagine how much magical energy was contained in that small dagger.

[Owner!! I can prevent it a little, but it’s still dangerous to stay there for too long!!]

“Nang, even if it’s just for a little while, can you completely block the demon energy?”

[Owner?! Well, what are you trying to do….]

“Speak quickly because we don’t have time. There is? Doesn’t exist?”

[It is possible, but… If it’s this strong, I don’t know when it will be released.]

“Okay, then it’s definitely worth a try.”

Maybe it was already too late, but if there was still a possibility, it was a good idea to give it a try.

Under Nanga’s protection, I ran toward the dagger, which was continuously spewing out magical energy without stopping. I grabbed the hilt of the sword and fired the dagger straight at Euclid’s chest.

The dagger was pulled out very easily for something that radiated such ferocious magical energy.

And the moment the dagger was pulled out from Euclid’s chest, the magic that seemed to cover the entire world disappeared in an instant.

“Ugh, ugh… !! “Me, Your Highness!!”

When the demonic force weighing down her body disappeared, Nana got up and quickly tried to run to Euclid, but it seemed that her body did not follow.

Before Nana could get far, she fell to the ground and stretched out her hand towards Euclid, who had not yet come to his senses.

“Don’t move too hard. “It’s not as bad as Euclid, but you too have been exposed to too much demon energy and are not in a good state.”

Once I calmed down Nana and made Euclid lie down comfortably, I put my ear to his chest and listened to the sound of his heart.

I was worried when I first put my ear to the chest as the stab wound was in the chest, but fortunately I could hear a normal beat, not too fast or too slow.

“Your Highness… ?”

“It’s okay. At least it looks that way on the outside.”

His complexion is also in surprisingly good condition for being so exposed to magic energy.

Furthermore, there was not a single drop of blood on the chest where the dagger was pierced, except that the clothes were slightly torn.

It was a very vain hope to say that the operation was a success.

‘But why Euclid…? ?’

Targeting Euclid means that they knew what was inside and targeted it, but I still don’t know exactly what they were aiming for.

Unlike others, he doesn’t even know what’s inside Euclid.

“Hey, if you’re hiding something, now…” .”

Just as she was about to turn her head and say that to Nana, just in case, Euclid’s body began to twitch along with her short moan.

“Ugh… !!”

At first, I thought it was a sign that Euclid was about to wake up, but what happened before my eyes was completely different from what I expected.

The body begins to wriggle as if in convulsions, and the entire skeleton, starting with the hair, begins to change.

“Look, don’t look!!”

While I was panicking and wondering what was happening, I turned my head to the voice I heard.

The emotion that appeared on Nana’s face as she made her sound was not fear or anxiety, but nervousness.

She immediately changed her expression as if she had missed something, but my eyes did not miss the emotion that instantly appeared on her face.

“I don’t know what it was, but you knew.”

Nana lowers her head that everything is over. In a way, she said yes, but she turned her eyes away from the ironic sight and looked back at Euclid, who seemed to be nodding.

I only took my eyes off her for a moment, but her hair, which was long for a man, grew in an instant and reached all the way to her waist.

Not only did her skeleton change from that of a man to that of a woman, but her flat chest showed a bulge of femininity that had never been seen before.

Looking at the very natural appearance and Nana’s eyes, I saw this… I realized that it was a familiar experience for them.

“… “What on earth happened?”

“… ….”

The situation would not have improved if she kept her mouth shut, but Nana never tried to open her mouth.

After a while, Marina and Jessica arrived and she said nothing as they moved Euclid into the hastily prepared cabin with an expression of disbelief.

However, when there was no sign of Euclid waking up, she slowly opened her mouth with her lips trembling.

“Well, there is an ancient devil inside you….”

“Ancient evil… ?”

When the name of a much bigger figure than expected was mentioned, everyone except me turned pale.

In particular, the expression on the face of Marina, the head of the academy, was truly a sight to behold, but her face was distorted as if the end had come.

“Do you know what the devil’s name is?”

“I don’t know…. Because he didn’t tell us the details about the devil. No, maybe he didn’t even know the devil’s name.”

“I can’t believe it’s him…” .”

“…… Of course, she is Your Majesty’s biological mother.”

“… ….”

As soon as she heard those words, Marina tried to leave with a look on her face that said she hadn’t heard anything, but I grabbed her hand and stopped her.

“Put this down!!”

“If it were you, would you let go? “It’s already happened, so just accept it.”

“No, why on earth!! “Nothing has happened for the past hundreds of years, so why does this keep happening since I became the dean!!!”

Well, since the time period overlaps with the original work, I couldn’t say the same thing.

After that, Marina, who had been indiscriminately venting her anger to no one for a while, grabbed her head and sat down on the ground.

I wonder how stressed he must have been, and seeing him even slightly teary-eyed made me feel pity for him.

“…… Are you okay?”

“…… Yes. “I’m sorry for showing you off.”

The cry that was almost like a scream earlier was so desperate that no one could even think of pouting at those words.

Instead, she looked at Nana, who seemed to be hastily changing the subject, and everyone had a puzzled expression on their faces.

“…… “To go back to the original topic, the devil has been inhabiting your body since the moment you came into this world.”

Among the magics that are banned due to various problems, there is a magic to find out the gender of an unborn baby.

In this world where men basically inherit the family line, the possibility of Euclid, a woman, inheriting the throne was infinitely close to zero.

A normal person would usually look for the next opportunity, but unfortunately, Euclid’s mother was a person who was far from being normal.

“So what you were thinking was a contract with the devil. By the contract she made, she received the power to transform her body into that of her male counterpart. Of course, it wasn’t perfect.”

Either she can change into a male at any time, or for some reason, she couldn’t maintain her transformation during her period.

“What did Euclid pay for that power?”

“…… “She left her seed inside Her Highness.”

Seeds are a type of ritual for demons to obtain a body. In the original work, there is a demon who obtained a body through this ritual.

When the seed planted in the human body is injected with strong demonic energy, the seed blooms and control of the body is transferred from the host to the demon.

Even if the control is passed, the host’s spirit does not disappear and continues to exist with the devil.

If the host’s spirit is broken, the last shackles blocking the demon disappear, and the demon that tore the body apart descends into this world in its own body. The demon that does this boasts a strength that far surpasses that of an adult dragon.

“I don’t want to criticize other people’s mothers, but you are an insane person.”

“How can you do such a cruel thing to your own child?” !!”

While everyone was expressing their thoughts, Nana suddenly got up from her seat, got down on her knees, and put her head in front of me.

“I know it’s shameless. Please!! Save your majesty… !!”

“… ….”

“This is a person who has suffered under him all his life, being denied everything. If possible, I would like to save it with my own hands, but it is beyond my power!! Request!! I’ll do anything you want, so please… !!”

“I’m going to help you, so raise your head.”

Nana looked up in disbelief, but I had no other choice than to ‘save her.’

That’s right, given the opportunity to fight an arch-demon that appeared only a few times in the original work, what fool in the world would refuse it?

‘Today I become a prosecutor who cuts down the devil… !!’
