The Demon Prince goes to the Academy Chapter 521

Chapter 521

A kitten suddenly appeared.

But the cat, who had never shown much interest in anyone but Adriana, seemed very fond of Ellen.

“Looks like Ellen.”

Adelia, who was watching Ellen and the cat, quietly said so.

“This cat hasn’t eaten anything today, so if Ellen gives it to you, will it eat it?”

At Kono Lint’s words, Ellen turned to her. When Ellen turned her head, she saw a new dish of slightly lukewarm milk that she had received.

“How about you give it a try?”

At Adelia’s words, Ellen carefully accepted the plate.

Ellen looks at the cat who is still staring at her.

Ellen didn’t know how to read the facial expressions of animals.

But somehow, I get a strange feeling that I’m reluctant. But I heard that he didn’t eat anything, and that he seemed a little sick.

Ellen sets the plate down in front of the cat and gently pushes it towards it.

Squatting down, Ellen looks at the cat.

-… … .

The cat looks at the plate, then at Ellen, and then repeats.

as if you’re looking at it.

at last.

awesome

Gear nose.

The black kitten starts to lick the milk with its head stuck in the saucer.

Even if someone gave it to her, she ate the milk she would never drink, as if Ellen couldn’t beat the runner.

– Oh oh oh.

Everyone couldn’t help but realize that Ellen was a person who made the impossible possible.

Ellen was staring at the black cat quietly licking the milk with cloudy eyes.

Ellen began to slowly sweep the back of the cat who was quietly licking the milk.

Currently, there are not only units directly under the Imperial Army in the Allied Forces. If that’s the case, there’s no reason why it’s an Imperial Army, but an Allied Army.

This is humanity’s strongest army, and it is an army that combines all of humanity’s capabilities.

Although they are shunned by the people, the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Saint-Ouan and his magicians are on the campaign, and the remaining vassals gathered all their strength and dispatched them to the allied army.

In a way, it is only natural that Kernstadt, the most powerful of these empires, sent the second largest number of troops after the Imperial Army.

It is a war that stakes the fate of mankind, and it is a dispatch.

So, after the Empire, the number of troops in Kernstadt that succeeded in maintaining the state was considerable, and it was inevitable that they occupied a very important position in the Allied Forces.

The youngest prince of such Kernstadt, Heinrich von Schwarz.

Pyrokinesis, a psychic power related to combat, is now comparable to Liana de Grantz, who used to deal with lightning strikes.

Of course, Liana awakened her ability to manipulate the weather in a place unknown to them.

-Kurrureurreung!

Heinrich was still on his horse watching as the waves of fear burn the monsters.

The troops who followed Heinrich were watching the scene blankly.

Ellen Artorius was also able to draw out the true power of the flame-manipulating holy object through a certain opportunity, but of course, it was only natural that Heinrich, who only handled flames, would use the ability more excellently.

The monsters on the ground were burned to ashes by the waves of cowardice.

Next, Heinrich watches a swarm of flying monsters flying across the sky.

Just as there are different types of monsters on the ground, it is the same that flying type monsters are also different.

However, because they move more freely than ground monsters, flying monsters appear everywhere.

That’s why no matter how much you organize the surrounding area, you have no choice but to keep watching the sky and be vigilant.

Looking at the group of flying monsters flying by, Heinrich concentrated his abilities.

“Prepare for shock!”

Heinrich’s cry made the troops tense for a moment.

All troops saw a red flash fading from a point in the sky.

– Flash!

momentary glimmer.

– Rurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

And a fierce shockwave that occurred with a deafening explosion.

Heinrich watched as the approaching flying monsters lost their balance and crashed to the ground due to the shock wave.

Fire is not the only weapon.

Even all the additional effects that can be generated by flames are all Heinrich von Schwarz’s power.

* * *

Each psychic ability is different, but as in the case of Liana, all psychic powers related to destruction and the operation of power were treated as very important forces in the Allied Forces if the level of those abilities was above a certain level.

A typical example is Heinrich von Schwarz, and another example is a psychic who can manipulate wind.

Although conditional, Rdina’s psychic powers are also considered very important.

Due to the nature of his abilities, Heinrich takes on large-scale missions similar to Ellen’s, and they often overlap.

That’s why there have been quite a few cases where Heinrich performed the mission instead of Ellen when joint operations were carried out or when Ellen Artorius was in bad condition.

So, from the Temple Royal class. Even if not as much as Ellen, those with psychic powers are making a name for themselves after the Gate incident, and they have no choice but to have a significant position within the allied forces.

Heinrich, who had returned from the search and annihilation mission, returned to the garrison, accepting the salutes of the soldiers who recognized him one by one.

Not like Ellen.

Naturally, Heinrich could not have as much fame as Ellen, who possesses two sacred relics and is considered to be the enemy of the devil.

-Prince.

-It’s the prince!

-Prince! Please have a look here!

However, when passing through the camp of the Kernstadt Army, Heinrich had no choice but to be treated as a hero like Ellen.

Heinrich waved to the soldiers who shouted for him to be seen.

A great tragedy continues, but people always find hope somewhere.

The youngest prince of Kernstadt, Heinrich von Schwartz, was also regarded as one of those hopes by the people of Kernstadt.

Every time Heinrich sees people looking for hope in him, Heinrich feels the pressure as if a very heavy stone has been placed deep in his heart.

However, the pressure was never unpleasant.

‘Heinrich, have you returned?’

“… … uh.”

Heinrich muttered quietly, startled at the sudden voice that seemed to pierce his head.

All psychics have their own role to play. Even if it’s an ability not related to combat.

The voice that penetrated his head was transmitted by the telepathic ability of Ivia, who was B-7.

Since Ivia’s abilities had grown by leaps and bounds, she was in charge of disseminating the intentions of the Allied Command to each unit.

Although it is not an ability directly related to combat, it is perhaps the most important ability in warfare in terms of immediate communication from a distance.

That’s why Ivia was almost forced to stay in the headquarters barracks rather than the royal class barracks.

To put it bluntly, Ivia is the lone signalman in this huge army.

‘Go to the headquarters barracks in Kernstadt. Commander Kernstadt is looking for you.’

“… … okay.”

A voice that stabs directly into the brain.

No matter how many times Heinrich went through this, he couldn’t get used to it at all.

telepathy.

Although not a force for attack and destruction.

How long could that not be a force related to destruction?

If it’s the ability to interfere with someone’s brain from a distance, isn’t it rather the most dangerous superpower in the world?

Every time Heinrich was telepathically connected to Ivia, such a strange feeling of uneasiness could not be erased.

* * *

After completing the mission report, Heinrich headed for the Kernstadt Army Garrison just as Ivia said.

Since Heinrich was as famous as Ellen in the military garrison in Kernstadt, the soldiers and knights saluted Heinrich with awe and respect even if they looked at Heinrich from afar, even if Heinrich couldn’t see him.

I couldn’t answer all the salutes and cheers one by one, and now I have a call from the Kernstadt military commander, so I’m on my way.

Heinrich hurriedly headed for the military commander’s barracks area.

Since it was a vast garrison, Heinrich had to walk a long way before he could reach the camp of the commander of Kernstadt on the hill.

The knights and guards guarding the area looked at Heinrich and saluted respectfully, paving the way.

Upon entering the military commander’s barracks, Heinrich could soon see a familiar face.

Two men sitting on the left and right.

“It was put into another large-scale operation. Good work.”

A man with a serious expression.

“Still, aren’t you playing the royal family too carelessly? Doesn’t it matter if the royal family of the vassal kingdom is consumed? Looks like you need to protest.”

A man with a disgruntled expression.

Both were Heinrich’s older brothers.

“Stop, if you put that into perspective, no one is good enough to be put on the battlefield.”

“But sister… … .”

“done. The maknae, whose face is hard to see, has come this far, how long are you going to leave it there?”

And, the woman sitting in the top seat.

“Here you come, youngest. sit down.”

A sharp-eyed woman glanced at Heinrich.

“Yes, sister.”

Heinrich is the military commander of Kernstadt, the first princess and successor of Kernstadt. She bowed her head to Louise von Schwarz.

you’re the youngest

brotherly treats.

Only after the world has become like this, Heinrich is treated as a brother by his brothers who treated him as someone who did not have one.

Eldest daughter, Louise von Schwarz.

The eldest son, German von Schwarz.

The second son, Alphonse von Schwarz.

Five sons, Heinrich von Schwarz.

All the brothers gathered together.

* * *

Heinrich was slightly avoiding Louise von Schwarz’s gaze while sitting in the last seat of the headquarters. The first princess of Kernstadt and the heir to the kingdom.

Since the king could not leave his parents’ home, the military commander of Kernstadt was now assigned to Louise, the successor.

Also, she is the leader of the Royal Knights of Kernstadt.

That means that in addition to her commanding skills, she is also very good at what she actually has.

The successor of Kernstadt and the Commander of the Royal Knights, as well as being a sword master at the age of twenty-four. Louise von Schwarz.

Heinrich was always afraid of his sister’s sharp gaze.

All of Heinrich’s older siblings had long ago graduated from the Royal Academy in Kernstadt.

Even Louise von Schwarz is a talented person who graduated early from the Royal Academy at the age of eighteen.

Just as there are temples in the Gradias Empire, there is also an academy system in Kernstadt.

It was a royal undertaking that was expected to one day transcend Temple and attract talented people from all over the continent to the Royal Academy in Kernstadt. And, in fact, the Royal Academy of Kernstadt also had an education system worthy of being called prestigious, albeit a bit lacking compared to Temple.

The reason why all of Heinrich’s brothers entered and graduated from the Royal Academy of Kernstadt, not the Temple, is because, of course, if the royal family is not sent to the royal family’s business, the credibility is low. It is the same reason that the Gradias Imperial Family entrusted the education of the Imperial Family to the Temple.

but.

Heinrich von Schwarz was sent to the Temple rather than to the Royal Academy of Kernstadt.

It wasn’t because Heinrich was an important person.

I wanted to get rid of it right in front of my eyes.

All the brothers gathered, but Heinrich was the 5th male, the 6th.

The fourth and fifth are not here.

no, not in the world

The childhood when Heinrich von Schwarz’s abilities were just awakening.

They were burned to death by Heinrich’s cowardice.

That’s why Heinrich went to the temple when he came of age.

No, they were kicked out by the Templars.

* * *

“sister… … . The reason you called me… … .”

“Is there a reason why the brothers are gathering? It’s hard to see your face since you’re not from our army, so I invited you to have a meal.”

Louise said, and as instructed, the food soon began to be placed on the table in the headquarters barracks one by one.

The meal starts with the brothers sitting around the table.

It’s not a pleasant scene, and there’s not much conversation going on.

But it’s important that we’re sitting here together.

sibling.

At those words, Heinrich’s heart felt like it was rattling.

Heinrich had not been treated as a brother by his brothers for a very long time.

I couldn’t go to the Royal Academy, where all the royal family goes, and it was the same as being abandoned in the temple.

Eight years old, the beginning of Temple primary education.

Heinrich went to Temple at the age of eight for an education.

In effect, it is tantamount to deportation. Even though the Kernstadt royal family paid for his education well, they were concerned about how Heinrich was doing and what he was doing.

Because I had no interest.

From the point of view of the royal family, Heinrich was just a royal descendant with the cursed power of killing two brothers.

It was a simple accident, and it was a story from when Heinrich was too young to remember.

An accident that happened when I was very young.

A prince who was abandoned when he was too young.

So, in fact, Heinrich is unfamiliar with the brothers, whom he can see often again now that he has become an important person after the gate incident.

The face, the attitude, the behavior.

The two older brothers who ignored or hated themselves.

My older sister, who was always cold, and now I feel cold.

Heinrich could be treated as family only now, when he had made achievements and became an important person.

Abandoned royalty.

Heinrich was able to reluctantly become a brother again amidst the unwillingness of the brothers only after he became an important being holding the cause and value of the name of power now that the fate of mankind is at stake.

Heinrich tended to overestimate himself.

I knew in my head that I was an abandoned royal family, but I didn’t accept it.

I am the Prince of Kernstadt. He is a descendant of the First Empire, the next in line to the Empire.

That was Heinrich’s pride and pride.

Until some madman gets admitted to the royal class and grinds himself shortly thereafter.

I now know that he is not actually a beggar with no horns, but a man with an extraordinary and astonishing history called the Demon King, but it will not change even if he finds out.

Hearing harsh sounds that he had never heard in his life, and even getting hit.

Even showing an ugly face in front of a classmate he had a crush on.

Heinrich realized that he was weak.

You have a background to put forward, but that background doesn’t really support you.

In fact, he had to admit and accept that he was not much different from the beggar, and that he was far worse than that.

Even the power given freely was not properly polished.

Heinrich did his best.

In order to turn the given power into practical power.

Reinhardt, who went from being a stupid classmate to being a terrifying being.

It was through him that I knew exactly what my subject matter was.

That’s why, after the Gate incident, Heinrich did not neglect to improve his abilities while killing monsters and saving people with his abilities.

That’s why Heinrich was able to become a very important person now.

I was able to be treated as a brother again by the brothers who had abandoned themselves and treated me as a missing person.

Heinrich in the past tended to overestimate himself.

So, Heinrich at the time would have judged this situation that way.

As expected, in the end, they recognize my worth, and the brothers accept me as a family again.

When these things are over, I will be able to return to the palace, and I will be able to live as a member of the royal family, even though I don’t even want to be the heir to the kingdom.

That would make you feel proud and proud.

After being abandoned by his family, he was able to return to his place for whatever reason, so he would have been happy and satisfied with it.

However, there is no Heinrich in the days when he was arrogant and self-indulgent.

Because of this guy, I learned to do something called figuring out the subject.

From where to where it can be done, and from where to where it cannot be done.

who i am

what i have to do

Heinrich was now able to look at himself and his surroundings quite calmly.

“When this situation is over, do you intend to return to Kernstadt?”

It was Louise’s question asked quietly as she cut the meat.

If it had been in the past, of course I would have answered yes.

He said he wanted to be acknowledged by his brothers and parents by contributing to the reconstruction of the country.

I would have answered that.

However, the other two brothers are paying attention to their sister’s question.

I sensed that the brothers were focusing on their answer.

Return to Kernstadt.

I just miss the arms of my family.

However, what he will do when he returns to Kernstadt to make a contribution, to rebuild the country and to win the recognition of his brothers.

Think of the problems that arise when your position becomes stronger.

My older sister is now thinking about herself.

About how the behavior of innocently missing the arms of the family will be understood and accepted.

Not only my brothers, but what many others will think of themselves.

About how to feel.

Think about it.

There are many things that will be brought about by the foolish innocence of the person who misses the arms of his family.

I have a feeling that there are people who are afraid of it.

Heinrich judges that his older sister is weighing him.

“There are many things in the world, so for quite a while… … . I can’t seem to go back. Even if I go back, I will only stay for a few days… … . It seems to be If the temple is rebuilt, I will have to study. I don’t know if that day will ever come… … .”

Heinrich felt that the stiff atmosphere softened at his answer.

“I see.”

It’s been a while since I felt overwhelmed by being recognized as a brother again.

A family that is forced to be accepted because of circumstances, because of fame, or because of power cannot truly be a family.

Heinrich von Schwarz had no choice but to realize.

“That’s a pity.”

Louise looks at Heinrich and slices the meat and puts it in her mouth.

grasp the subject.

A guy who has become a cursed being just by mentioning it.

The things I learned to do because of him were helping in the wrong places.
