Chapter 5: The Senior Who Was Invited to Dinner “I heard that the senior was also…
Ivida, who was unaware that she had been targeted, ignored the terrifying screams outside the window and sat at her desk with the tip of her pen resting on the paper, hesitating whether to cross Iruma's name off the list of candidates for the Demon King.
There were constant terrifying screams outside the window, and giant black shadows occasionally passed by. However, Iveda, accustomed to the demonic world at night, remained unaffected. She was lost in her own thoughts.
It’s not like there haven’t been cases of humans becoming demon lords, but being human doesn’t rule it out.
Moreover, the demon who treats Suzuki Iruma as his grandson is not an ordinary demon. Sullivan can be said to be the pillar of the demon world now.
According to Avida's not-so-in-depth investigation, since the death of the Demon King, it can be said that the three heroes have been performing most of the duties on behalf of the disappeared Demon King.
And Sullivan is one of the three heroes.
In Avida's view, the Three Heroes Conference is the highest authority in the demon world.
It was originally thought that Sullivan, who had the highest public support, would be the next Demon King, but he failed to properly shirk responsibility at every meeting.
Iveta had heard rumors that Sullivan had been cursed by a vanished demon king, preventing him from becoming one. She didn't quite believe the rumor, having secretly examined Sullivan and found no trace of the actual curse.
She was almost caught, but luckily she ran fast.
In fact, Avida doesn't want Sullivan to become a demon king. If he becomes a demon king, it will be very difficult to defeat him.
The cunning old demon said that his strength was at level nine, but secretly he had reached level ten.
Bad.
It would be best if the young devil could become the Demon King. That way, she could easily complete her mission as a hero without any harm.
Every time she thought of this beautiful dream, she hoped that the guy she knew could become the Demon King as he wished.
Avida also didn't believe that a demon like Sullivan would suddenly have the urge to go to the human world and kidnap a strange human to be his grandson. There must be something wrong.
A bastard? But Iruma had clearly identified him as a human.
Avida now has some doubts as to whether there was something wrong with the hero's skills. What if the advanced appraisal was deceived by an even more advanced camouflage magic?
If magic doesn't work, try science, a DNA test?
Avida thought that she would ask Iruma tomorrow if he was willing to provide a sample for the test.
There is a more important reason for not ruling out Iruma. Just now, Avida found the ancient prophecy handed down from the demon world in the information she collected.
To put it simply, the prophecy is that a person from another world wearing a golden ring will gather all races, sign a blood contract, and heal all things.
When she first read it, Avida thought the next Demon King would be a beastmaster.
Iruma is a human, and he wore the Ring of Evil Food when his rank was determined. Could it be that Sullivan is creating a demon king according to the prophecy?
Iveda reasonably guessed that bringing all races under his command might be a comparison with humans being able to summon demons and sign contracts?
Not to mention, if humans want to summon demons, they really need to provide blood.
How can we have the ability to heal?
Didn't realize Iruma had healing powers? Ivida put a big question mark on her notes, puzzled.
However, if humans become demon kings, wouldn't they be easier to defeat? Iveda closed the notebook, drank the iced carbonated drink in one gulp, leaned back in her chair, and made a hasty and decisive decision. No matter what the purpose of Sullivan's plan was, she would help him move forward.
Even though she had set a goal last night, Avida was assigned a new task when she arrived at school the next day, and at this moment she just wanted to resign.
She tried to refuse the assignment to the dean, saying, "I'm still new and have no experience."
"Don't worry, senior Kaluyeger will guide you first." The head teacher of Babirus, Danlindali, gave a cheering gesture to the new teacher.
He doesn't want to let the new teacher do whatever he wants.
I really want to apply for the security guard position. Iveda could only smile helplessly and go to ask Kaluyegg how to supervise the rank upgrade test with the Jade Punishment Cannon.
Kaluyeger was indeed a very good instructor. His explanation was concise and clear. After listening to it, Aveda took it in and said, "Isn't this just dodgeball?"
"Dodgeball?" The demon Kaluyegg had never heard of the name of the human sport, so he repeated the unfamiliar word.
"When I first heard the name, I thought it would be bloody. I also thought that when invigilating, I had to be extra careful not to let students die."
Although Kaluyeger had read Iveda's resume and knew that she did not graduate from the three demon schools, but participated in adult demon education, she lacked common sense.
Doesn't the ranking exam at the adult demon education institution focus on cultural tests?
Kaluyege, who doubted the credibility of the other party's academic qualifications, suddenly realized that Avida was born in a remote demon area.
Survival is a problem there, so it is naturally impossible to attach importance to basic education.
The few lines of introduction in the resume, if put into reality, Iveda, who had such a difficult time coming out, could become a demon of the same rank as himself. Kaluyeger felt that it was understandable that the newcomer had some shortcomings.
Avida, who had no idea what her mentor had imagined, took the stack of notebooks handed to her by Kaluyeger in a daze as soon as she got to work the next day.
The other party said succinctly, "I'll lend it to you for reference."
After saying this, Kaluyeger returned to his workstation and started working without waiting for Avida to react.
Do you have classes to prepare for early in the morning?
Avida was very confused. She lowered her head to look at the heavy stack of notebooks in her hand. She opened the first one and found that it was Kaluyeger's work notes.
The handsome handwriting is full of essential content, and the key points and summary of each work are listed clearly and concisely by him.
There is also a table of contents and an index.
Xueba Notes? Teacher's Edition!
When the other teachers came in later, they saw the new teacher, Iveda, with an excited look on her face. She tightly held Kaluyege's hands and said, "Kaluyege, you are such a cold-faced but kind-hearted senior! I will never speak ill of you again!"
"Let go! Why are you telling people about the stupid things you did behind my back?"
"Let me treat you to a meal!"
"No, let go of my hand!"
"But I want to express my gratitude, so please let me treat you. I'll treat you to an expensive meal!"
"Let go of my hands first!"
The character of someone who has no moral integrity and is thick-skinned and insists on his own ideas is exactly the type that Kaluyege is not good at dealing with.
He had no choice but to accept the other party's invitation to end this endless cycle of conversation.
Kaluyeger, who had a headache, sat down and didn't understand why Avida was so strong, almost like some brute force.
The thought of brute force almost brought back painful memories, so Kaluyeg decided to abandon this line of thinking.
The other teachers who were watching the scene exchanged happy glances, and Kaluyeger felt frustrated.
Naberius Kaluyeg, who was helpless but true to his word, reluctantly went to the appointment on the afternoon of his day off this week.
Worried that she would forget to thank her mentor if she delayed any time, Avida had been trying to find out what kind of food Kaluyege liked this week.
When Kaluyeger was a new teacher, he had a dark history of being in charge of booking a store for a teacher's party, but ended up booking a super-luxury restaurant that he usually went to.
So when he saw that the newcomer was obviously trying to find out how to talk at the store he often went to, he took the economic level of ordinary teachers into consideration and gave Avida a reference to an affordable izakaya.
A sunny day on a day off will make even the devil feel better.
It would be even better if I didn’t have to go out.
Kaluyege arrived at the appointed location on time. As soon as he landed after folding his wings, Avida stuffed an oversized snack into his hand. "Senior Kaluyege, try this! It's our super popular grilled wings!"
Rather than the grilled wings in his hand, Kaluyege was more puzzled as to why she had so many goods hanging on her body, almost covering her entire body.
Avida, who arrived early, heard the sound of a rally being held on the next street while waiting.
Each store displays its signature products at the door, with a wide variety of food, clothing and supplies, and loud calls for help.
Many doorways were swarming with demons.
Following the principle of squeezing into crowded places, Avida visited all the places without missing a single one.
She was so caught up in the lively festive atmosphere that she almost forgot her main task for the day.
Fortunately, when she was buying commemorative dolls, she saw a bird-shaped doll and remembered the important matter she had made with Senior Kaluye.
Just in time.
Immersed in the excitement of shopping, Aveda saw her senior, Kaluyeger, frowning and backing away. Only then did she calm down and put all the things she had just bought into the storage space. She explained seriously, "Sorry, I couldn't help it, as it's my usual way of venting to prevent a vicious cycle."
The demonic pressure here accumulates and creates a vicious cycle.
Iveda concluded that the demons in the evil cycle will become perverted, have bad tempers and are difficult to control, and can easily lose their minds and become mentally ill.
Although she is not a genuine demon, Avitan often uses this excuse to ask for various leave.
And it's not lying.
Because Avida needs to complete the hero's mission but has no conditions to do so, she can be under great pressure, have a bad temper, and behave in extreme ways at any time.
The demons still need to accumulate pressure, so just let them go to work in human capitalist companies, ensuring that every moment at work is a vicious cycle.
It sounded like a reasonable reason, but Kaluyeger was skeptical. He was about to say something when Avida put her arm around his shoulder. All he heard was, "Let's go, Senior. I've already booked a private room."
Kaluyegg wanted to avoid the other party's physical contact, but his body's defense alarm sounded first, and he noticed that the space was distorted.
The scene around me changed.
Iveda had already withdrawn her hand, took two steps forward, and gestured for her to come in at the door of the shop she had booked in advance. "Senior, please go first."
In front of me is the store I often go to, in the opposite direction of the agreed meeting point. So why not just meet here directly? Why go around in such a big circle to show off my family's ability?
Kaluyeger walked into the store with snacks in his hand, turned his head to look at Avida who was communicating secretly with the clerk, and always felt that the other party was not smart enough to this extent.
In the private room, Avida was showing off her generosity. "Senior, don't be polite, just order whatever you want! Teacher Balam said this is your favorite place."
Kaluyege now knew who leaked his information.
"I heard that you, senior, decided to have the dinner here, and your mentor scolded you for it."
Kaluyeger, who was originally planning to take care of his junior's wallet, immediately closed the menu and read out the names of the dishes after hearing this. As a regular customer, he knew clearly which one was the most expensive.
Avida, realizing that she had accidentally revealed the dark history of her predecessor, really wanted to cast a silencing spell on herself. She silently closed her mouth and had no opinion on the food ordered by Kaluyege.
Anyway, the delicacies from the demon world all looked strange, so it didn't matter to her. To make up for it, she even added some 999-year-old red wine.
Because she felt that ordering soju would not be in line with Mr. Kaluyeg's style.
