The Demon Prince goes to the Academy Chapter 390

Chapter 390

let’s get engaged Because it doesn’t even matter if you’re married. To give Charlotte a temporary cause.

Not because he was afraid of Bertus’ power, but to prevent Charlotte’s aides from changing their minds.

I said it with the mindset of putting out an urgent fire. Charlotte lay down and looked up at me, biting her lip.

“how… … . Why are you even doing this?”

Charlotte puts her hand on my cheek, as I do.

Charlotte’s slightly cold body heat passed to my cheek.

“I, the person you have to do this far… … . it’s not… … . you are not me… … .”

“It’s precious.”

“… … .”

“You are precious.”

There were so many emotions and thoughts swirling around like my head was about to explode, but all I could say was this.

“That’s it.”

This is a bad choice.

No one can become happy with this choice, and it only secures someone’s survival. Would that be enough?

So, is it right to let Charlotte die?

I hate to see that situation, so is this situation right, where I only choose the lesser evil, not the worst?

When Charlotte finally sees me say that, her face distorts, her eyes are tightly closed, and she starts to shed tears.

“Reinhardt… … . very very… … . thank you… … .”

Eventually, Charlotte sobbed.

“too… … . I’m sad… … .”

I was sad because I knew that I had made this choice to protect her, not because I loved her.

* * *

I couldn’t spend the night at the Spring Palace, so I went back to the temple. Of course, it was through the warp gate in the basement of the Spring Palace.

It wasn’t officially talked about, but I agreed to get engaged to Charlotte.

I don’t know how or how to do it. It was a promise between the two of them, Charlotte.

In a situation where there were only wrong answers everywhere, I felt like I had chosen the lesser evil answer in the end.

I was engaged, so I couldn’t decide this on my own.

Externally, I have to make a justification for how I, who is only a student of the Temple Royal class, can be appointed as the imperial family’s sire.

soon.

It should be known that I am the owner of Alsbringer. So just because I decided to do it didn’t mean that it would be possible right away.

So, I had no choice but to meet the most important person.

“engagement… … . I mean.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

If you look at the situation, it’s very pretentious.

It was because a guy from a commoner’s background asked the emperor for a private meeting and promised to be engaged to the princess.

But in reality, the emperor wanted to ask me this first, but I was the first to say something that I couldn’t bear to say.

Engagement, not marriage.

Perhaps trying to gauge the gap that arose in that place, the emperor was silently contemplating in front of me with his eyes closed.

“Can you afford it?”

I didn’t ask what I could afford.

But there were too many words in that one word.

Although it was directly requested by Bertus, it must have been that he could afford Bertus.

If it is revealed to the public that he is the owner of Alsbringer, he may come to the attention of the demon king.

And, to the tangled and ruined relationships with other people.

I risked my life for Charlotte the first time, and I risked my life the second time too.

This time I have to risk my all.

life and everything.

It sounds like the same meaning, but in fact it has a completely different meaning to me.

Even Charlotte was rather saddened by my decision, but not happy. Because she seemed to be miserable of her own predicament.

“Yes, I can afford it.”

My thoughts were complicated, but the answer was simple.

I will protect Charlotte. This time, I’m going to pick up the whole thing with my own hands.

“thanks… … . Reinhardt.”

The second thank you from the emperor.

It must have been an honorable moment, but I didn’t feel very honored.

* * *

I talked with the emperor about the engagement.

Externally, I am still just an ordinary student, and if the engagement between Charlotte and I is known, it will only become a bizarre scandal about a commoner getting engaged to the princess.

The extent to which he is the new owner of Alsbringer needs to be known to pay off.

I don’t know how to go about this in detail, but it should be done before Charlotte becomes more dangerous than she is now. Once Charlotte was able to control her powers, she would be safe from physical assault.

and.

I didn’t know how to explain this to the kids.

Not everyone will understand.

I don’t even think that you will be able to understand.

But I didn’t know how to explain this, so I couldn’t do this or that.

The only ones who still know about this are me, the Emperor, and Charlotte.

If there were more, it would have been Bertus, who had made this proposal itself.

After the weekend, next week.

Saviolin Tana called out to Ellen.

“As of the current time, I will be in charge of the major classes for the two of you.”

Ellen and I had the entire major class replaced.

We both expected it to some extent.

Although the major class has already been replaced by combat training, the real training for the two of us must be based on the use of the holy relic. I even got an Alsbringer.

Saviolin Tana, who was an interim superintendent, eventually took over as interim teacher. Just to teach both of us.

“When I have other business, another person will supervise your classes.”

“yes.”

“yes.”

I also thought that Tana’s growing distance from her role as Charlotte’s bodyguard might be because she was pushed out of the race for succession, but I wasn’t sure.

The place where we learned from Saviolin Tana was not the dormitory gymnasium.

“Originally, it is a facility that cannot be used recklessly, but you have been granted permission to use it. I will register you to enter the facility, so you can come here and train separately.”

Saviolin Tana took us to the Temple’s high combat training grounds.

it’s such a place

A combat training ground with the same system as the main stadium in the Temple Tournament. A training ground where the Recall Artifact is activated when the situation is on the verge of fatal injury even if you fight with all your might.

It is a place with a setting that not everyone can use it because the construction cost is enormous and the maintenance cost is enormous. In fact, royal class only classes are not held here.

Unlike the main stadium, which was outdoors, we entered the training ground wearing artifacts, which are safety devices in the combat training ground.

Ellen summoned Lament, and I summoned Alsbringer and Tiamata.

“… … .”

Saviolin Tana looked at me like that and put on a sobbing expression.

Anyway, I summoned both of them.

me.

Do I have to practice double swordsmanship now?

“… … It hurts.”

“I think so too.”

“I know.”

Ellen nodded as if agreeing.

“I’ve had two sacred relics in my life, and you’re the first to think about whether to use both or just one… … will not be Anyway, should I call this a lucky worry? … .”

While talking, she must have remembered the case of Lagann Artorius, and Tana looked at Ellen once and corrected her words.

It seemed that Saviolin Tanah had no idea whether she should do the bizarre double swordsmanship from now on, or whether she should choose and concentrate and use it while exchanging holy relics whenever necessary.

“Your doctor will be important. What do you plan to do?”

Tiamata and Alsbringer.

Both are very powerful relics.

Saviolin Tana seemed to be very negative about the dual swordsmanship. I want to use both, but I don’t want to throw away everything I’ve done and learn from scratch.

Isn’t dual swordsman losing the freedom of the left hand rather than increasing the number of attack methods in the first place?

How can I not combine this into one bag?

I’ll change the name to something like Alstiamata, so why don’t we merge?

Of course, nothing like that happened.

I sent Tiamata back.

“I will do it as one. If I force myself to use both, I don’t think it will work either.”

“That’s a wise decision, Reinhardt.”

If you try to change your body by forcing yourself to use what you have, you will end up ruining what you’ve built up until now.

For now, the first priority is to experience Alsbringer’s basic abilities.

* * *

I didn’t set everything up, but the relic basically has two powers.

Basic abilities and true abilities.

In the case of Tiamata, it basically has very strong perm power. True power is being able to use enormous divine power at will. Although there is a special situation called Olivia’s help.

In the case of Rament, it has a similar effect to Aura Blade, and I don’t know the true effect yet.

In the case of Rapelt, I confirmed something similar to the Auror Armor the other day, and likewise, I do not know the true ability of this one.

And Alsbringer.

The true power is to summon the war god.

– Kwakang!

“Oops!”

When Rament hit the Alsbringer I was swinging, Ellen took a half step back.

It happened even though the power gap between me and Ellen was still significant.

– Kang! Caang!

After several more swordfights, Ellen repeated to retreat.

Alsbringer’s real power is the Avatar ability to summon the God of War, but Alsbringer doesn’t exist only for that.

Alsbringer’s basic effect is simple.

The stronger the enemy is stronger than me.

The more enemies I have to deal with, the more.

Makes the owner stronger.

It had a strong basic effect worthy of the name of the sword of the god of war.

Of course, this is just a setting made to easily create a situation where the main character defeats and eats a stronger opponent than himself.

The Alsbringer I had heard from Ludwig for that setting is now in my hands.

of course.

As is usually the case with such settings, it cannot be invincible.

strengthen the owner.

In the end, that ambiguous word said to be strong, but it does not mean that you will always win against a strong person who is stronger than you.

You said that the stronger your enemies are than you, the more there are, the stronger you are.

Of course, it can make you win, but there is a chance that it won’t.

It is a very powerful holy object, but in the end it is an ambiguous condition.

Because the ambiguous setting is convenient for writing.

– Cards!

Ellen’s rament comes in at an angle that pierces my neck, deflecting my sword roughly but at an angle.

– Phat!

And, with him, I was recalled off the training ground.

If it had been a real battle, no matter how much he strengthened his body with magic power, he would have been decapitated and died.

Ellen is much stronger than me.

That’s why even though Alsbringer made me that strong, I still couldn’t compete.

10 defeats before.

“ha… … . ha… … .”

I almost passed out outside the training ground.

It is exhaustion.

If it was a real battle, I would have been killed ten times by Ellen.

“I can clearly feel the power of the sacred object. On average, I lasted more than 15 sums more than usual.”

Saviolin Tana, who was watching the whole situation from outside the training ground, nodded silently. She seems to have been defeated as usual, but the frequency of her chasing Ellen has also increased.

Returning to the waiting room, Ellen was drenched in sweat, with hair sticking to her forehead.

“it’s hard.”

The 10 fights were intense enough for Ellen to say such a thing.

“What about me who even lost?”

Ellen didn’t even use lapel. It means that if it was really a real fight, he wouldn’t have been an opponent at all.

Is there any way to use Alsbringer and Tiamata at the same time? If you put it in something like a scabbard and fight while carrying one on your waist or back, would you be able to use both strengthening effects?

“Reinhardt, you often experience situations that increase your physical abilities, including enhanced psychic powers. So it’s not possible to accurately judge how much athletic ability you have every moment. That’s why there are often situations where you almost force yourself to push. On the contrary, there is a tendency to panic when the opponent is pushed away. You have to get used to how strong your physical abilities are under certain circumstances.”

Both Ellen and I were exhausted, so we sat side by side on the bench listening to Tana’s feedback.

“Ellen, there is nothing to blame.”

“thank you.”

no.

I only heard the feedback.

Saviolin Tana’s favoritism no longer exists.

Tana is not disappointed in me.

‘What should I say to Ellen? If I say too much to Reinhardt… … .’

‘I can’t deliberately say something to Ellen to tell Reinhardt not to die.’

‘What should I do?’

‘I want to praise you.’

I want to be partial, but I can’t.

It’s like that at a low level, I even wrote a self-reinforcing holy object on the cheat called supernatural power and applied it.

Ellen also used Rament, but sharpness was not such a big advantage as long as she had an unbreakable sword called Alsbringer in her hand. If you’re an aura blade wielder who can create magic waves from the sword itself, like Tana, the story will be a bit different.

Ellen, armed with all sorts of cheats, is just taking me down physically.

still.

“ha… … . ha… … .”

To see Ellen breathless and sweaty.

Something.

I felt like I was being followed.

No matter how bad the equipment is.

And whenever I saw Ellen, I felt uncomfortable on the other side.

A certain discomfort that should be called guilt.
