Match 1: Loss
Match 2: Loss
...All the way to Match 65.
"Well~ I lost again."
"You lost, but you seem quite happy," Opera said, looking at Iruma. Although Opera's face was expressionless, his eyes and ears showed a hint of confusion.
"Is that so? But… you know, besides my older brother, no one has ever played games with me, and my brother is busy for me every day, so I don't want to bother him… I really enjoyed playing today."
"Is that so? Then, how about another match?"
Round 1 begins.
"Huh? Why did Opera suddenly get weaker?"
"It's all because Iruma is too cunning!"
"Huh? Cunning?"
Iruma wins.
Shesi vs. Opera: 0:66
Iruma vs. Opera: 1:65
"Opera, is Chairman still not back?" Iruma asked.
"He has some matters to attend to and won't be back for a while, but there's no need to worry. That's what he said," Opera replied.
Suddenly, Shesi thought of something and pulled Opera aside to ask some questions.
Just a few days later was the Division Exhibition, known as the Tube-Scrambling Day in the human world. The first-year students of Babirus Demon School were waiting anxiously, in fact, they were extremely restless.
Kalego watched this scene.
"Calm down a little, all of you."
"But our parents are coming to see us!"
"Our hearts are definitely racing!"
Shesi and Iruma looked at this scene, somewhat stunned. It seemed they hadn't felt this way when they were studying in the human world, after all, those two never came back, and they barely even went to school. But it seemed this time, Chairman and Opera would be back.
Shesi and Iruma thought of this.
"Oh no, I'm starting to get anxious too."
Just as everyone was still discussing who from their families would come, Kalego finally interrupted them.
"Silence! In any case, prepare yourselves properly. Don't embarrass yourselves in front of your families, you fools! Also, those staying overnight, remember to write an application."
"Okay~" x14
"Teacher Kalego, could you come to the Chairman's office?" a female Teacher walked over and interrupted.
"Hmm."
Inside the Chairman's office.
"The Chairman was detained by the Border Control?"
"Yes, the Chairman himself contacted me."
"The Chairman said… it would take some time to clear up the misunderstanding. Kalego, you will temporarily act as Chairman. Ah, checkmate~"
"I lost!"
"Nani! That idiotic Chairman, not at school during the busiest time, right before the Division Exhibition!"
Robin, on the other hand, immediately started complimenting Kalego… it didn't seem like a compliment, just 108 questions.
"As expected of Teacher Kalego, acting as Chairman! But, but what exactly did the Chairman do? The Border Control made a hasty conclusion, and the Chairman was arrested for an undeserved injustice."
Another Teacher said,
"Although there's a basis, there's no direct evidence for the arrest, is there?"
Hearing this, Kalego also began to think.
"If there's no direct arrest and he's detained at such a crucial time… is there some purpose? It's too suspicious… Regarding the future course of action, to prevent unforeseen circumstances, all Teachers must not be careless during the Division Exhibition."
"Yes!" x8
Teacher Morax Momonoki looked at Kalego with an expression of adoration.
Ah~ Teacher Kalego already has the demeanor of a Chairman~
Inside the Division.
"Who will come from Asmodeus's family?" Iruma asked.
"Ah, my mother wants to come, but I will do everything to stop her!" Asmodeus said seriously, looking at Iruma.
"Huh?"
"Stop her."
"Okay… okay."
At this moment, Kiriwo also walked over and sat down.
"That's nice, I really miss the Division visit."
Iruma asked confusedly,
"Senior Kiriwo, did your parents come then?"
"Not my parents, but a senior from the Magic Tools Research Division came, a demon who was like my guardian."
"Like a guardian?"
"Don't I have very little magic… My parents were also very disappointed. To be honest, my relationship with my family isn't good."
Hearing this, Iruma thought of his own parents again.
"They're really similar…"
Suddenly, Kiriwo's phone rang in his pocket.
"Speaking of which, here it comes."
As soon as Kiriwo answered the phone, an angry roar came from the other end.
"Answer the phone as soon as it rings! You stupid glasses!"
Kiriwo quickly walked to the side.
"Sorry, Big Brother. Mm-hmm… No, the members have increased… Got it, I'll prepare," Kiriwo said to the others after hanging up the phone.
"Sorry everyone, shall we start preparing?"
"Okay."
Only Shesi looked at Kiriwo's phone, deep in thought.
"Big Brother is already angry before we even started. Big Brother is very Spartan."
The group arrived at the venue.
"It's really lively," Iruma said, looking at the scene.
"Oh, it's the Monster Division's circus."
"It's fun again this year," Kiriwo said.
"This is the Magic Division, they look so suspicious…" Iruma said, looking at the Magic Division next to them.
"Succubus Division!" Clara was about to rush over but was stopped by Asmodeus.
Shesi looked over and saw demonesses wearing very revealing clothes winking at them.
"Everyone is so motivated, we can't lose either! Charge!" The group arrived at their Division's exhibition space.
"Ugh… it's really narrow… and small," Shesi raised an eyebrow, complaining as he looked at the space in front of him, which couldn't even fit luggage and was less than a fifth the size of the neighboring Division's exhibition space.
Kiriwo saw this scene and spat out another mouthful of blood.
"Senior!" Iruma was startled.
"Yo, the Luggage Division is here? Do your best this year, haha," a passerby next to them said, teasing Kiriwo.
"Thank you."
"Don't thank them, they're making fun of you," Asmodeus said, exasperated.
"Haha, I'm a bit used to it…"
"It's all my fault. Even though I'm a third-year, I'm still rank 2, so I don't have much budget and can't get a good stall. I'm really sorry."
"It's okay, what's important is the content," Iruma said, trying to cheer up the disheartened Senior Kiriwo.
"What did you exhibit last year?" Shesi asked, stroking his chin. To be honest, besides some major plotlines, some striking plotlines, and character introductions, he had mostly forgotten the rest. After all, he had lived two lives; one had to learn to forget.
"Last year, we just displayed all the new magic tools, like this," Kiriwo laid out all the items, and the result was exactly as that person said—it was as cluttered as a luggage storage area.
"With your addition this year, I'd like to hear everyone's wishes."
Iruma spoke first.
"I like the glowing magic tool you made, Senior, and that's why I wanted to join."
"As for me… I have family-proven fire magic, which should be able to help Iruma," Asmodeus said, considering Iruma as usual.
"As for me, I like 'dong,' 'pa,' fancy things, and 'kacha kacha' things," Clara's explanation was as vague as usual.
