My Summons Are Special - My Summons Are Special chapter 117
117. Asmodians
The two 4-star Summoners were helpless in front of Ian.
In the first place, they are two people who have no intention of fighting him seriously.
It was impossible to win a fight with Ian in such a field.
A fake victory obtained by half-aggression.
However, Caroline, who had lived her life as the second-largest person, accepted even that victory sweetly.
“… Marquis, did we really win?”
“okay.”
“Really, really?”
Ian nodded without saying a word. At that nod, Caroline wept. The pleasure of victory, which I had only ever tasted in my imagination, was always dramatic, dynamic, and bursting with cheers.
But what about reality? It’s dramatic, but it’s also very emotional. Far from cheering, it’s so quiet that it’s deafening.
Caroline felt a pounding in her chest. It was a whirlwind of emotions. The heart that got on the tsunami is swaying here and there.
In the process, the trauma and qualifications that have been deeply embedded in the heart are washed away as well.
‘Marquis Ian.’

My heart is pounding It has always been that way, but this time it was different. If the heart palpitations up until now were somehow artificial, the current heart palpitations are very natural.
She realized that feeling was love. she is in love now When I realized that, my heart sank. It hurts terribly to know that he is in a position he cannot dare to touch.
‘It’s good for a joke.’
Through this fight, he realized that he had no reason to love or need him. He made it clear that he didn’t even deserve to be by his side.
Caroline gave up on Ian in tears. But I just gave up on approaching him, ready to accept him at any time… .
Ian was happy to know that Ian had solved the problem in his own way – according to his plan. See, isn’t this world just a rolling miniature garden?
I thought so.
Then, demons appeared inside the academy.
The demons killed 16 cadets and were expelled.

Even if the seed of evil germinates and turns into a demon, not everyone has strong power. Talent is also required to become a demon, and that talent is usually divided according to the level of the summoned being possessed.
The cadets who became demons this time were the lowest level summoners with one-star summons, and even if they became demons, they could not leave the lowest level.
However, to kill the defenseless academy cadets, one lowest level demon was enough.
[Our teachers are deeply reflecting on not being able to prevent this disaster… … .]
group funeral. While all the cadets were silent in front of the statues of the dead academy cadets, Ian thought about the cadet demonization that he could not stop.
Should he be sad that his efforts were in vain, or should he be happy that at most a one-star summoner was turned into demons?
The principal beckoned to him when he was happy that no one like No or Stella was hurt.
“Ian. Look at me for a moment.”
“… Yes.”
Ian headed to the principal’s office with the principal. It was a very familiar place now. At first glance, it looks more like a training ground or classroom.
Inside the principal’s office, the nobles and priests they had never seen before were sitting there.
“This is Count Egao, who has been appointed to be in charge of the Asmodian situation, and this is the High Priest dispatched by the Holy See.”
“Nice to meet you. I am the Marquis of Ian Clark.”
After a light greeting, Ian realized why he was called to this place. He had been warning about cadets becoming demonic a few days before this incident.
He must have come to ask how he knew this and what he could do to prevent this from happening.
“This is Count Egao Drahu, who has been appointed as the investigator. Marquis, I’m asking you straight up. How did you know?”
“It would be strange to ask what-”
Ian sat in front of them and began to explain how he knew the cadets were going to become demons.
In fact, there was nothing to explain. The fact that cadets can be turned into demons is something the Academy already knew about.
“The same thing happened to someone I knew. Dinua Erebos, with the help of demons, she aimed at my head.”
Referring to her case, the investigator nodded and glanced at the principal. The principal was also aware of this, so he handed over the materials he had prepared in advance.
To the investigator reading the material, Ian continued with several supplementary explanations.
“It could happen twice, so we investigated beforehand.”
“okay. then… .”
After that, the investigator asked about the conditions for becoming demons, how to distinguish such humans, and how to return them to safe humans.
Ian explained the things he had done with all his heart. And the investigator, who heard all the explanations, pondered while drooling.
“It’s inefficient. It’s better to just take the beast and lock it up somewhere.”
“The problem is that all summoners are nobles. If you end up locked up like that… .”
“I might buy a backlash from other families… .”
The biggest problem was that. The point was that other Summoner families might interfere with him if he recklessly tried to kill or capture him with the possibility of becoming a Demon.
Why, all human beings are born with original sin from birth. Since you don’t know who will become a demon, it was natural for those with vested interests to prepare for when they became demons.
Of course, the person who was pointed out that the devil’s seed was planted right away can be put to death without saying anything… What if the remnant burns their vengeance?
“If you create infighting between humans in that way, you will only make the demons full.”
That was the reason Ian bothered to melt Caroline’s heart. Killing her is simple, but losing her family and pretense after killing her is irreversible.
What if the accumulated anger explodes someday? Just fighting the demons will kill you, but there is no time to fight humans.
“How to do it, isn’t it?”
“There is not.”
“Hmm- I’m in trouble.”
The investigator frowns and rubs his temples. In fact, there was no way out. There were two ways.
‘The problem is that I can’t run both.’
First, it kills all mankind. Just as disease naturally disappears when no one gets sick, so there is no need to worry if there are no humans to plant the seeds of evil.
Naturally, it was a method that could not be used, and if so, it naturally moves to the second method.
second. kill the devil It was, however, a possible way. And that was Ian’s dream.

demon king.
The demons living in this castle where the demon king resides live as parasitic on the magic that the demon king constantly emits.
The demons, who have lived like this for hundreds of years, have now reached a point where they can understand the mood and state of the demon lord only by the amount of magic that the demon lord exudes.
[Because of his hero.]
The high-ranking demons sang like that. Having already been parasitized by the Demon King for hundreds of years, he can easily guess why the Demon Lord is so angry.
[Hundreds of years ago, and again this time. When we gather our strength and go out, he appears like a ghost and gets in the way.
—So, why don’t we just keep watching the demon lord get angry?
[Is it necessary?]
The high-ranking demons conspired with their comrades and came up with a way to relieve the demon king’s wrath. It was very easy and simple.
[We’re going to catch a warrior amongst ourselves.]
—Grrr… … how?
[The hero himself is only human, right? You can sneak into the human realm secretly and kill it.]
─If that’s easy… Killed it right away… .
[Are you scared?]
The comrades, who heard the high-ranking demons, trembled in their legs and trembled in anger. Are you scared? Just for humans?
─No-!
[Then go. Gather some more colleagues.]
—Is it worth it to a human?
[Then, not there.]
If it were originally – a high-level demon-like being wouldn’t move here. Because the only way to go to the realm of humanity and risk death to fight humanity was the worms that were kicked out of the Demon King, or the other species that wanted to stand out from the Demon King.
Rather than killing humans, he gains more mana by just breathing near the demon king. The demons lost their will to do something due to the magic inflation and magic distribution caused by the demon king.
[One of the Four Heavenly Kings has died, so the seat is vacant.]
Such demons had a chance to ascend to a higher position. The death of the Four Heavenly Kings, Ra-S-Ti, and the throne empty because of it.
In order to occupy the remaining position, the demons who had not moved before began to move first.
Warrior.
Aim for Ian Clark’s neck.
