Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me - Immortals From My Past Life Are Still Obsessed With the Reincarnated Me chapter 35

35 – Demon Search Operation (1)

“After much thought, I decided to reorganize the content of the class.”

Elfin, who came back to the place where the special class students were gathered in the forest, told me everything honestly.

Of course, she didn’t reveal the identity of Justina and I, and she didn’t even mention that Elfin was from the royal family.

It was only announced that two demons sneaked into the mountain behind the academy, and today we would conduct a real-life class to search for such demons.

“In real life?”

“Ugh, ugh… I’m a little nervous….”

Students’ reactions to the change in class content were varied.

Josef had her eyes twinkling with open excitement, and Cornette, though not as outwardly as Joseph, had a very expectant face.

On the other hand, Charlotte clung to me, trembling, as if very frightened, and Gwyneth, the cat-beast, was scanning the others.

Finally, Justina and I knew the whole story, so of course we had no objection.

As a result, all six students in the special class had no complaints.

‘Why are all these guys so naive?!’

I didn’t express it, but to be honest, I was very embarrassed.

I thought there would be at least one person wondering why the students had to find the demons hidden in the mountain behind the academy.

Is this also the mindset of an adult who only cares about profit and loss?

Anyway, I was dealing with a real demon, but I wondered why there was no tension so I stabbed Joseph.

“Hmm? Deneb, what is it?”

“Aren’t you anxious? That’s where the real demons are hiding.”

“Well, we are not going alone, the professor is going with us, so what should we worry about! And wasn’t it originally a monster hunt?”

“I did. The task was to split the group and catch them one by one.”

“Beasts and Demons are equally dangerous, right? Even if you get hurt, the school is right next to you, and there are excellent wizard classmates, so how can you volunteer to be a warrior in the future if you are scared by this practice?”

Since I listened quietly, I felt like I was being persuaded.

Anyway, it seems that Justina gained trust thanks to using her healing magic to restore the male students who had been attacked by elfins earlier.

Not only that, but all six of them have personally dealt with elves, so she must have thought that as long as she was there, her demons were no match.

Especially, the gaze of Ruzef and Cornette, who tasted her kick, looked at Elfin like that of a fanatic serving God.

“Well, that’s fine. Then let’s have a showdown to see who finds it first.”

“Ha ha ha ha! Oops, if defeating them was the condition for betting, I would definitely lose, but if finding them first was the only condition, I think it would be worth a try!”

“Is that so?”

Well, the biggest reason is that these guys are all teenagers when they are growing up.

Originally, when I was in my teens, it was the way to see everything without measuring it.

She seemed to have judged to some extent that the students had accepted the change in the class, and Elfin clapped her hands in a loud clap to draw her attention.

“Now then, to facilitate the search, we will divide into two groups.”

It wasn’t a bad decision to split the six in half.

In the first place, since there are not one target, but two, so if everyone gathers together, even if one is caught, the other may escape and not be caught.

However, if you divide them into two groups, you can capture one demon each and finish the job with ease.

‘Wait, then which way is Elfin going?’

There are two Joes, but only one professor.

The moment I thought what would happen if this happened.

Justina, who was close to me, just caught her eye.

‘Aha, that’s why it’s two groups.’

Even if the students are divided into three and the other three, and an elfin is attached to one side, if Justina is in the other side, it is a composition that can run away even if the demon, not the demon, appears.

Even though it seems that Justina can’t use eye-catching wide-area magic attacks because it’s a secret operation of the imperial family, it’s easy enough to protect the three students since she’s the head of the academy.

“Then Deneb, Josef and Cornet are in Group A. Yuzu, Guinness, and Charlotte are in Group B. For now, I will lead Group A, but I will keep an eye on Group B as well, so don’t worry too much.”

Elfin roughly divided the students selected by Professor Perkin from the combat class into one group, and the students from the magic class chosen by Professor Darnay from the magic class into the other group.

Everyone seemed to be passing without any major complaints, but there was a student who suddenly raised his hand and expressed his dissatisfaction.

No, not exactly…… I was more of a director than a student.

“…… For a moment.”

“Hmm? Yuz Denbergen. Any questions?”

“Well, it’s not a question. I object to the grouping.”

…… Why?

I really wanted to ask Justina here.

If Elfin is to protect one side and Justina is to protect the other, it is exactly as I thought.

Is it a problem that the magic class students are grouped together?

Battle class students need to mix it up to fight well?

‘No, it can’t be.’

No matter how much I thought about it, there was no convincing reason.

Coming to think of it, it was a group of men and a group of women, so I wondered if there was any dissatisfaction from that side.

Elfin is the only one who is jealous that he hangs out with boys…….

‘Could that be it?’

It was an absurd story even when I thought about it.

While everyone tilted their heads and looked at her, Justina hesitated and opened her mouth.

“That… Shouldn’t you mix students who are good at magic with students who are good at combat so that you can practice joint practice and learn how to match combinations?”

“Well, that is a surprisingly valid opinion. I will fix it.”

As expected, Justina.

Have you considered the efficiency of students’ actual class learning as the chairman?

I couldn’t help but admire the attitude of a true teacher who really cares about his students.

Elfin is also good at being an Imperial family member, but her job as a professor seemed unfamiliar, so she accepted Justina’s opinion.

“Then, Deneb, Charlotte, and Joseph are in Group A, Yuzu, Cornet, and Guinness are in Group B. As I said before, I will lead Group A, but I will also look at Group B…….”

“Sleep!”

What on earth is Justina dissatisfied with?

I thought this arrangement was absolutely perfect.

Students’ strengths can be mixed together, and each group has insurance, so you can prevent unexpected dangers in advance.

But Justina raised her hand again and raised her objection.

“How about swapping Deneb and Cornet?”

“Me?”

“Why am I suddenly?”

Not only me, but the cornet also widened their eyes.

Suddenly switching places, what is this?

But Justina couldn’t bear to name the reason.

“…… Aha.”

Elfin nodded her head as if he finally understood.

I didn’t know why, but I also noticed how this situation was going when I saw Elfin’s sinister expression.

Justina didn’t object to the grouping on any reasonable basis, she just wanted to be in the same group as me.

It was not a group of children who simply wanted to be together.

It was an extension of the confrontation between Justina and Elfin that had just occurred in the forest.

“Hey, Yuzu. Don’t worry too much…….”

[How can you tell me not to worry! I can’t entrust it to an elf girl like that stray cat! Demon? What if I catch those guys easily and then take you and escape the academy right away!]

Justina burst out her long-suffering heart with telepathic magic.

It was so sudden that even I was a little taken aback.

In an instant, she accepted Justina’s angry voice as her magic, so her head was dizzy, but she soon returned to her original state.

Like Justina, I answered using telepathic magic.

[I see what you mean. I will mediate.]

[Arbitration? How do you mean mediation?]

[Even if I asked her to go with Justina, Elfin would reject it, saying, “Why do you have to do that?”

[Then how… ….]

[I just go alone, these.]

I cut off the telepathy and called the elfin by voice.

“How about splitting into three groups instead of two?”

***

There was a bit of a fight, but in the end my opinion was accepted.

First of all, it goes without saying that dividing into three groups is easier to search than two groups.

It’s a matter of safety if I had to argue with it, but I knew that Elfin, Justina, and I weren’t the ones who couldn’t deal with just one or two demons.

Stamina depends on stamina, it’s not like you have to deal with multiple people in a row.

“What, if it’s Deneb.”

“Because he is the strongest among us.”

The other special class students were generally agreeing.

Not only Joseph and Cornette, but also Guinness recognized me as a monster who defeated dozens of people in a row in combat class.

At least Charlotte was worried about me, but even in the worst case, there was a corner where I believed in my own way.

‘With this, I can use physical protection and swordsmanship at will.’

I put my hand in my pocket, put the magic core that emitted bluish light on my palm, and rolled it around.

It is true that golden swordsmanship and physical protection eat up an enormous amount of mana, so it cannot be used at any time.

However, what if we use the magic core obtained from the magical brainwashing leash?

I don’t run out of mana, so I can use protection magic at will, so there’s no shortage of stamina, and I can pull out as much swordsmanship as I want.

“Then, Group A will be Cornet and Guinness, Group B will be Yuzu and Joseph, and Group C will be Deneb and Charlotte.”

Besides, dividing a group of 2 into 3 doesn’t mean I’m going alone without a colleague.

If 6 students are divided into 3 groups, 2 students will be placed in each group.

Group A with Cornet and Guinness will be fine as Elfin will take care of it, and Group B with Justina will be safe as well.

Finally, Charlotte and I are together in Group C.

‘Charlotte is good at defensive magic, in addition to her magic core. Two insurances.’

Of course, Elfin and Justina showed signs of worrying about me.

Even if I exclude the embarrassment of being in a protected position for the first time in 500 years, those two tended to be too overprotective of me.

Justina said that she would protect me from the whole world. Needless to say, Elfin said that now I am just a half-master, and that she should revive properly, but she was uneasy and seemed at a loss for what to do. .

“Yes, I will lead Group A, but I will try to take care of Groups B and C as much as possible. Then let’s start slowly.”

However, Elfin erased her emotions and hurried to search for her.

Because it was difficult to argue further with the group formation when they took me into the woods and talked for a long time.

At this rate, there was a good chance that the whereabouts of the demonic brother and sister would become unclear as time would be delayed even further.

Besides, it’s so dangerous at night that I can’t even continue the search.

Then it would be like giving the demon brother and sister information that someone was looking for them.

“…… Be especially careful with Group C.”

[If anything happens, you must run away immediately, Deneb. Now that you are not the one from your previous life, even weak demons can become dangerous enemies. Of course, it’s true that you’re strong for your age, but no matter how you find her enemies, you must find her original daughter and ask for help.]

[Oh, my ears hurt. Can’t we just keep connecting telepathically?]

[…] … That’s it too. I got it.]

Only then did Charlotte and I step into the entrance of the mountain behind the academy, which was covered in thick darkness even in the middle of the day.

“I will protect you, young boy!”

“Puck. Take good care of your body.”

“Yes… ….”

With a strange anticipation in his arms, what he will meet in there.
