Chapter 121 – 121. First lecture
Late at night.
Owen was already asleep on my bed, breathing softly. It started late, and it must have been difficult for Owen, who was still young, to endure.
Still, he tried to concentrate, and it was especially admirable that he tried to keep at least one aspect of the soul in his head since it was a field he was also related to.
Of course, Findeneye ran away and never came back.
Maybe I should go back to my room and sleep.
Erica, who listened to the lecture until the end, was organizing what she felt in her own way.
“Perhaps because it was unfamiliar knowledge, the level of satisfaction with the lecture itself was quite high. “I almost want to hear it again.”
“okay.”
“But I think they are trying to give too much information in too short a period of time. So, I won’t be able to work as a teacher for long. “You have to use a little Yudori.”
“What do you mean?”
“It’s lecture time, but you don’t have to just lecture. “Especially since you are a warlock, there will be some students who are nervous, right?”
That was correct.
In fact, I was most worried about dealing with such students.
You need to learn, but if you are afraid of the professor, how can you concentrate properly?
I can’t even see the blackboard properly.
“So it’s okay to relax with something like an icebreaker or tell a joke.”
“… … .”
Do I really think I can do that? She must have thought this wasn’t right after Erica spoke, so she folded her arms and thought for a moment, then opened her mouth again.
“Or you could tell me a story about what happened to you. “I went through a lot of incidents during this vacation, so I used that to help me focus or cool my head for a while.”
“hmm.”
“It would also be quite helpful to give students something to eat or something they might like during the lecture.”
I thought it might not be a bad idea. Honestly, Erica’s advice was quite helpful.
“Thank you, it was very helpful.”
When I honestly expressed my gratitude, Erica smiled softly.
“What is this? “More than that, I liked seeing you sincerely trying to do your job as a professor.”
I didn’t bother to answer.
Since I was getting paid to work, I thought I would do my best, and since the Academy has a large number of leading and supporting actors, I think my lectures will be of some help.
“Hey, by the way.”
Erica hesitated for a moment. Erica seemed to be having a hard time putting her words into words, but she opened and closed her mouth several times until she finally made eye contact with me and spoke.
“What on earth is this student named Aria Rias?”
I had no idea that the story of Aria would come out of her mouth.
“I met that kid during this summer vacation. Dante? “It’s an unfamiliar organization, but I’ve fought with them against the warlocks they belonged to.”
“You mean?”
“Yes, in Rometiu Forest. “I went to the spirit there with the intention of learning about the spirit magic you told me about.”
I definitely felt a unique energy next to her, but was it a spirit?
It seemed like Erica had grown a step further than before.
“I saw Aria there. Starting with killing people without hesitation, to you… … “He was showing abnormal obsession.”
“… … .”
“Of course I would like to do as you wish, but I am also a professor, Deius.”
Erica clenched her fists and declared firmly about Aria.
“We can’t have a dangerous child in the academy who wouldn’t hesitate to kill for his professor.”
Because I also agreed with that statement.
I answered with a small nod.
“Yes, I will take responsibility for that child.”
“… … Please call me if you need any help. Still, in my own way… “Well, because I’m a single woman.”
Erica stutters and doesn’t bother to point it out. The reaction was strange, but I didn’t really care.
“Okay, I’ll ask you when the time comes.”
Then Erica smiled brightly, something she only shows in private situations.
“huh!”
* * *
“Wow, this is my first time listening to a lecture in the main auditorium.”
“It’s not just first grade, it’s all grade levels, right?”
“Don’t make eye contact with your seniors.”
The main auditorium where Deius’ lecture will soon begin. Since any student who applied for joint lectures in all grades can take the course, most of the academy students gathered here.
Just as the first year students were watching their seniors, the second and third year students were also watching the professors standing behind the auditorium.
Since the lectures at this time were expected to be concentrated in one place, except for the liberal arts section, almost all the professors were preparing to come and listen to Professor Deius’ lecture.
“Wow, that’s fascinating.”
“It’s black magic. “To be honest, I’m still reluctant.”
“Well, it’s because His Majesty has personally recognized him. “It must be something different from what we knew.”
“So, Professor Gideon didn’t come?”
“Oh, indeed. “You’re on vacation because there’s a lot going on with the Xeronia family right now.”
This is a situation where even normally polite professors can’t stand it and are whispering among themselves.
In particular, Erica, known as Deius’ fiancée, was receiving looks of envy and envy, but unlike the innocent smile she showed last night, she was looking toward the auditorium with her arms crossed as cold as ice.
The second and third year students did not just pay attention to the professors.
Of course, in the first year, there was truly a giant among giants.
For some reason, Eleanor doesn’t scribble even though she has a pen and paper and just stares at the auditorium.
Everyone was trying not to focus their attention on the princess of this kingdom, fearing that they might make a mistake.

Aria waits next to Eleanor with her eyes wide open as well.
The two girls were waiting for Professor Ona Deius at some point.
A little ahead of time, Professor Deius came up to the auditorium.
“It’s a little early as many people are waiting, but let’s get started.”
The time everyone has been waiting for.
Some people had fears.
Some people have doubts.
Some people still feel disgusted.
Some people are excited about taking steps toward a new field of study called black magic.
Everyone concentrates on Deius’ lecture with a variety of emotions.
On the other hand, Deius was worried about how to proceed with the lecture, even practicing in an unusual way.
A calm expression, no different from usual.
It’s natural, but Deius didn’t practice because he wanted to stand in front of people.
He practiced how to pour out his knowledge to a large number of people.
There was no hesitation in his actions, as he had already expressed his opinion confidently in front of several times more people than this at a major debate.
“First, here, let me introduce my assistant.”
Erica’s eyebrows twitch slightly at the start, which is different from yesterday.
Did he change anything after receiving his own advice?
Everyone’s eyes are focused on who Deius’ assistant is, and his fingertips point right next to him.
“This is the dark spirit who is with me.”
[…] … .]
The dark spirit standing next to Deius was momentarily embarrassed and pointed at himself.
[Eek?! Me? Can you see me?]
The dark spirit looked at Deius in surprise, and he nodded, wondering why he was so surprised.
“Say hello.”
At those words, the dark spirit master turns his gaze towards the people. People’s eyes on her were quite difficult for her as she stayed in her lab every day and practiced only her necromantic arts.
[Ah, hello. It is said to be a dark spirit temple.]
I bow my head and say hello.
When he thought about it, Erica, Karen, and the Dean had seen him before and wondered if he was okay.
“Well, my assistant just said hello to you all. “Have you seen it?”
Hearing those words, the dark spirit looked at Deius with a puzzled expression.
no!
The students answered with one voice.
[this! this! this!]
The dark spirit, who thought he was being made fun of, clenched his fist and glared at Deius, but he didn’t care and continued talking.
“But here, I definitely have an assistant.”
Then Deius looks at the dark spirit.
“Show me.”
[…] … I really hate it.]
While grumbling, the dark spirit summons his mana to create a simple flame.
It was glowing purple with the necromancer’s flame.
The place is momentarily agitated.
Since most of the students and professors here can manipulate mana, it is not difficult to notice that the flame burning here was not created by Deius.
Even as I looked at the suddenly rising purple flame with startled eyes, I had no choice but to admit that there really was something there.
“I couldn’t see anything, but mana appeared for a moment and it immediately became magic. I will teach you about these things that are invisible but exist.”
The introduction to a captivating lecture.
Some professors were impressed, saying that the beginning was quite excellent, and Erica hides a smile as she hears such praise.
“Also, I will give this to the student who guesses the appearance of the Dark Spirit before the winter break when my lecture ends.”
Sigh.
What Deius took out from his pocket was a golden card that could fit easily in one hand.
At first everyone thought it was something. No, even if I looked closely, it was the first time I had seen it, so I was so dumbfounded that I couldn’t say anything.
Exclamations come out from among the students and from the princess.
“Wow, royal millennium library pass?”
“what?!”
“Wow, awesome.”
“Well, I heard you have to pay a lot of money to get in there?”
For the wizards of the Griffin Kingdom, the Millennium Library is a must-see on their bucket lists.
It is a place where it is fitting to say that it is a treasure of knowledge, along with numerous original books of magic.
Although it was originally given to me by the dean.
There was no need for him to have two passes since he had already been issued a pass anyway.
I followed what Erica said about giving a gift to make the lecture more focused.
“Yes, the royal treasury. This is an entrance pass to the Millennium Library. “It may not be a banned book, but other than that, all books can be read.”
Deius passes the passes over the students, as if gently waving a fishing hook to attract fish.
“As I just said, I will give this to the student who is the first to guess the appearance of my assistant, the Dark Spirit. “If you listen carefully to my lectures and work hard, it will be possible.”
[Well, I’m kind of embarrassed.]
The dark spirit lowers his head for no reason.
But the effect was clear.
In fact, even though most of the students had not even started the lecture yet, their insides were burning with enthusiasm.
Deius slowly approached the blackboard, holding a piece of chalk.
“Let the lecture begin.”
