I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy - I Became a Demon Professor at the Academy chapter 97

97 – Curse for you – 2

[This is the turning point of the main scenario]

▶At the same time, it is the turning point of Charlotte Forte’s death.

Yep, in the office, I touched my temple with my hand.

sunfish. The nickname that users gave to Charlotte Forte while she was in the outside world. The reason why it was nicknamed didn’t even need an explanation anymore.

‘Honestly, I haven’t been in a while lately.’

Recently, Charlotte has been living in a very safe environment to the extent that the nickname sunfish is colorless.

Her death flag has been raised again.

In a way, it was a fact that I was happy that the main scenario was progressing, and in a way, it was a fact that I couldn’t just be happy because I was worried.

‘Anyway, I have to overcome this time too.’

There is only a week left until the academy all-out war.

While saving Charlotte’s life, she must complete the transfer process so that Lepista’s power can be used as her ‘exclusive weapon’.

busy. always busy…

But it was something I couldn’t blame anyone for. Because this is the path I chose

pop!

At that time, Lepista, who had been polymorphing in the form of a nameplate, returned to the form of a goblin.

“Dad.”

“Here you can’t come back like that.”

I brought her on the condition that she would never appear in the human world, but that promise was already cracking.

Even though he is young, he seems to have some sense of humor. If you see him changing his appearance like this only in a space where there are no other humans.

“I’m hungry. I am hungry.”

Hey, he let out a deep sigh and handed over one of his arms. Lepista bites it straight away while making a loud noise.

I tried to entrust it to Christine, but Lepista stuck to me like a magnet and wouldn’t come off.

Watching Lepista sucking blood in a dainty way, I recalled the conversation I had with Vivian for a moment.

◈

The beginning of the story was, first of all, the story of a succubus who ran all over the demon realm.

Vivian clicked her tongue and began to talk.

“Do you know what Lepista’s goal was? Tsuttsut.”

“I know you had quite a lust for power.”

“right. It wasn’t quite a level, but it was a level beyond imagination. Lepista wanted to change the seven deadly sins of the underworld into the eighth deadly sins. He wanted to become a sin himself.”

Certainly, at the highest position in the succubus, there was already a sin of lust.

But to create a new sin, that alone made it possible to guess how great her aspirations were.

“What sin did you want to be?”

“The sin of obsession.”

Currently, there is no such thing as the sin of obsession in the demon realm.

“You failed.”

“Of course it failed. But her will is contained in the wand. And that… ”

Vivian tapped the desk with the tip of her fingernail to make a pop.

“…It also has to do with the curse the wand kid currently has. Do you understand?”

“Because I understand. I want you to explain what kind of curse it is right away.”

“I will. you’re doing it first of all… ”

Vivian paused for a moment. The eyes of a pure white snake, which only reptiles can have, contained a vague worry.

That look just makes me anxious. How serious is the sin of envy to the point of worrying about it?

“The existence that Lepista calls mother has already been designated?”

“Christine. Lepista recognizes me as a father, and Christine recognizes me as a mother.”

“Christine. I’m glad it’s Christine.”

Vivian sipped her tea. Some seemed relieved, some didn’t, and today it was difficult to read her expression.

she licked her lips again.

“First of all, being a father means specifying what you belong to.”

“It seemed so.”

The appearance of Lepista, who does not want to leave Jekiel’s side even for a moment. It was a part that I had already predicted from the time I looked at it.

“And the moment the mother is designated, Lepista’s curse is activated.”

“So you’re saying that the curse has already been activated?”

“right. To use the power, a being designated as a father must show affection only to a being designated as a mother. how is it? Isn’t the content of a curse worthy of the word obsession?”

“Hmm.”

Jekyll tilted his head involuntarily.

Show affection only to Christine. Actually, it’s not that difficult if you look at it.

“What are you thinking right now, it’s not a big deal?”

“I will not deny it. And it doesn’t really seem like a big deal.”

“it’s not like that.”

Vivian shook her head.

“It’s certainly no big deal if you think you’re using Lepista’s power, but your goal is to transfer this power to someone else.”

“Yes.”

“From here on, it becomes clear why this curse is tricky. Tsuttsut.”

“How are you?”

Vivian crossed her arms. Then, with a more serious face than before, he began to speak.

“Obsession is much scarier than you think. If you focus your mind on a certain object and cling to it, it also means that you will resent that being if it doesn’t act the way you want.”

“But what Lepista wants is for me to devote my affection only to Christine, whom I have designated as my mother. Isn’t that all?”

“No, it is simply a condition of using power, and other conditions are attached to the transfer.”

“For example.”

Vivian looked at Lepista with fearful eyes. The girl was sleeping like an angel in Zekiel’s arms.

“…This guy’s strength is. You can only transfer it to the person you hate the most. Of course, this guy decides who you hate the most.”

“So it was a curse rather than a blessing?”

“right. That’s why Lepista designates the being that receives power as an ‘enemy’. The name is the enemy.”

I could understand without further explanation.

‘If you don’t use this power yourself, I will gladly become the power of the person you hate the most.’ That’s what the curse says.

“Damn it… ”

He bit his lower lip. My brain got complicated.

Even if you treat students coldly, if you have to treat them like you would treat an enemy, that is the difference between heaven and earth.

If you want to deal with your enemies, you have to throw away the mind that you are for the other person in the first place.

To treat the object I need to protect as my enemy, isn’t it too absurd?

But that was then.

“But Jekiel, I think if you were smart you would have noticed.”

“what.”

“Didn’t you notice that there are gaps in what we just talked about?”

“A gap?”

Jekiel pondered the conversation he had with Vivian for a moment. and not long after

“Oh, no way.”

“right. That guess is right. tsut tsut tsut.”

He took turns looking at Lepista, who was sleeping in his arms, and then at Vivian.

“…I said that this guy made his own decisions. So if you can fool this guy, is that enough?”

“Exactly.”

Vivian nodded, arms crossed.

“But the question is whether you can cheat. That guy will test things on his own.”

“exam?”

“Yes, you will try to test whether the candidates to be designated as enemies really belong to you. A big accident could happen. Even if you look young, your magic is no joke.”

“I’m already dizzy.”

“Well, anyway, this is the end of the explanation.”

◈

When I recalled that conversation, my temples spontaneously hurt.

‘one week.’

Since the all-out academy war is in a week, we need to make Charlotte designated as a ‘enemy’ during that time.

‘I have to fool Lepista.’

I stared blankly at Lepista licking my arm. can i lie No, you have to cheat.

“Lepista.”

“yes!”

“Aren’t you sleepy?”

“I’m not sleepy!”

The safest time seems to be when Lepista is asleep, but you don’t know when he sleeps… I need to finish my observations of Lepista as soon as possible.

And then, footsteps in the hallway began to echo.

“Lepista!”

“Oops!”

At the urgent voice, Lepista immediately made a popping sound and changed into a nameplate.

And my intuition was more accurate than I could have imagined, and it wasn’t long before someone knocked on the door.

smart-

“Here, Professor. This is Michelle. Is it okay if I come in?”

What was it, Michelle?

I unknowingly let out a sigh of relief.

If it was Charlotte, it would have been pretty difficult. I had already treated her harshly once in the hallway.

He could really kill himself if pushed too fast, but it was really fortunate that the student who came was Michelle.

“Come in.”

“Then excuse me.”

A door that opens quietly. After a while, my eyebrows trembled.

“Because Charlotte has something to say. I brought it because I was frustrated because I suffered so much.”

It was because Charlotte was by his side.
