Chapter 41: Hero Party (Part 1)

After Ryuryeon disappeared, Leticia and I were in charge of cleaning up the academy, which was in a state of

emergency.

There were other professors, but they were all busy in their respective positions, so Leticia and I, who fought the

intruders directly, naturally became in charge of the cleanup.

Above all, Leticia captured one of the invading demons.

Leticia said she would take charge of interrogating the demon herself, and as soon as Ryuryeon disappeared, did my

desperate explanation work?

Leticia disappeared with an incomprehensible, satisfied smile, saying, “See you later.”

It’s a good thing.

I couldn’t bear to say that I used a trait to seduce a woman.

If I had told the truth, I might have been banned from using the Yuri (S) trait for the rest of my life.

After Leticia disappeared by teleportation, I frowned, staying in the office after a brief interview with the chancellor,

who was on a business trip to another place and rushed to the academy upon hearing the news of the demon attack,

writing a report on what happened at the time.

First of all, the fact that an apostle, who was called the former Demon King’s right arm, invaded the academy with

her subordinate demon was a big problem, but the bigger problem was that the demon was allowed to invade the

academy, one of the centers of the empire.

‘…They must have invaded the empire with space magic. But even if they could avoid the eyes of ordinary knights or

civilians, they couldn’t have avoided the eyes of the wizards of the magic tower or the emperor’s hunting dogs. If

there was even the slightest abnormality in space, there’s no way the space wizards wouldn’t have noticed it.’

But if it was a sophisticated magic that even Leticia couldn’t notice, it’s understandable that they didn’t notice it.

“The magic used to escape at the end. You said it was a portal, right.”

Even to me, who is ignorant of magic, it was a fairly sophisticated magic with a well-structured magic formula.

Leticia only said that it was a magic that connects space and space, so it’s not a forbidden book, it’s just that they can

move by connecting to their hideout, but she said she couldn’t know the exact coordinates.

That means they can come and go between the empire and their hideout at any time, which was a big problem.

Even if it’s not anytime, the fact that they can invade the Imperial Academy itself was a problem.

If Ryuryeon brings an army at the next attack, a war will break out in the middle of the academy.

“I need to take action as soon as possible.”

It’s an empire that has finally regained peace.

How long has it been since people regained their smiles, and war again?

A war of taking and taking something.

I frowned, recalling the blood on my hands.

I couldn’t break this peace because of those guys.

“The Demon King has also been contacted, so if he has any sense, he’ll move. It would be easier if he rooted out the

rebels moving in the Demon King’s territory first.”

The opponent is an organization that Ryuryeon is involved in, so it’s unknown.

It could be a small organization, or it could be a larger organization than imagined.

Then, acting rashly is just poison, so we need reliable information.

Besides, if there are fanatics of demons hiding in this empire who are helping the rebels and trying to start a war, it

will be a headache.

I felt tired from the worst-case scenario in my head, pressed my eyes with my hands, and sighed at the complicated

thoughts.

“Their purpose is probably a war between humans and demons, so it doesn’t matter… but this incident can’t be

covered up quietly.”

Because the academy, which is considered the best in the empire, was attacked.

It was fortunate that there were no injuries or deaths, but the airspace of the academy was taken, and if something

had gone wrong, it could have turned into a major accident, and the intruder, Ryuryeon, disappeared using a portal

without being captured.

I feel like this incident won’t end easily.

“Phew—.”

After the attack, Leticia said that she explained to the emperor’s knights, the wizards of the magic tower, and the

hero Leo and his wives, the saintess and the divine archer, who came to support.

They were astonished and agreed with Leticia’s words that it was such a sophisticated magic that even she couldn’t

know the exact location of the portal, so it was no wonder that she missed it.

It wasn’t strange for them to be wary when they heard that even Leticia, who is called the sage, couldn’t grasp it.

The terrified knights said they would report this situation to the emperor and immediately returned, and the wizards

of the magic tower remained here at the academy, saying they would investigate the scene.

And unlike Leticia, who moved to another place with Leo for a detailed explanation, the former my companions who

came along with Leo as a bonus.

“Pfft, pfft. Hahahahaha!!! Ah, it’s the first time I’ve laughed this much since Leo turned into a woman. I heard from

Leo, but you really turned into a woman? You’ve become a completely different person! That Damian Radius

becoming a woman, Leo and you are really unlucky!”

“It’s amazing. It’s a curse that even my divine power can’t cure, so I’m a little frustrated, but it’s the first time I’ve

experienced this since Leo. Fortunately, both Leo and you have no problems with your bodies. Hmm. By the way,

with this, our hero party has become a party made up of only women, without a single man. Should I be happy about

this….”

“There’s nothing wrong with your body, right? Then it’s okay if it’s fun, right, Chloe? Ah. It’s not a mixed-gender

party anymore. It’s a party made up of only women… the bugs who looked down on the hero party because it was

made up of women would be startled. The Heavenly Demon, who was called the strongest swordsman of the time, is

a woman, what could be more fun than this.”

While I was sitting on the sofa in the office that I had extorted… obtained from the chancellor, they were happily

chewing and testing my patience.

“Ah, really! You two, shut up. Can’t you see that I’m busy right now?! I’m already annoyed because of Ryuryeon, that

b*tch…!”

I expressed my annoyance and glared at Chloe and Irinia, the saintess and divine archer of the former hero party.

“Have you two not changed at all while I was gone? Huh? And shouldn’t it be normal for you to point a weapon at me

or be wary of me because you can’t believe that your only companion has become a woman?!”

“That’s the normal person’s reaction.”

“At first, we didn’t believe it either. Even when we heard Leo’s words, we thought that a b*tch impersonating you was

being brazen, but if that were the case, Leticia wouldn’t have left her alone.”

Above all, Leo asserted it.

If she was a fake with a thick face pretending to be you, she would have suffered a lot from Leticia, Leo, or the two of us.

Irinia added with a smile on her creepily beautiful face.

“We were on the better side. Leticia was rampaging, saying that she would tear the guy who impersonated Damian

limb from limb and feed him to the monsters, so we had a hard time stopping her.”

“…I’m, sorry….”

“It’s okay. I’m glad you came back, even if it’s now. Although I can’t forgive the fact that you became a woman and

left without saying a word to us.”

“But Leticia will be more unforgiving. Eating and abandoning a lover is the worst.”

At Chloe and Irinia’s merciless fact-bombing, I grabbed my dizzy head, waved my hands, and gave them an expulsion

order.

“Get out.”

“That’s too much. Are you kicking out a precious companion you met after a long time?”

“You’re cold. Damian. No, is it Charlotte now? If you kick us out like this, something more troublesome will happen,

right? What if we walk around the academy grounds?”

“What if you walk around? The students have all evacuated outside the academy or returned home…… No. I just

talked to the principal and said that we can’t close the academy because of this incident….”

Some students returned home at the request of their parents, but there were far more students who remained at the

academy.

In this situation, Chloe or Irinia, who are treated as legendary heroes as the hero party that drove out the Demon

King, walk around the academy grounds?

It’s obvious that rumors will spread in many ways.

I continued with a tired face.

“You guys just stay here. Just the fact that the former hero party is all gathered at the academy will spread

unnecessary rumors.”

“Don’t take it too seriously because it’s a joke. I’d like to see the faces of our juniors, but it’s not a situation where I

can do that leisurely.”

Chloe said with a hardened face that seemed a little angry.

“I didn’t know this situation would happen when it’s been so long since the war between humans and demons ended.

It’s the peace that Leo made, and they’re trying to break it.”

Chloe is right.

The empire has just found stability now.

It was really fortunate that most of the emperor, who newly strengthened the imperial power, and the nobles who

seized power, thought about the stability and peace of the empire above all else.

The previous Demon King, who pursued war, was deposed by the Demon King who newly took the position of king,

and in agreement with Leo’s thoughts, he achieved peace.

The church, which sanctified the war with the demons as a holy war, was also destroyed by Chloe’s hands, so war was

no longer necessary.

“But Damian, you’re the teacher of the candidates for this hero party, right? I thought there would be no hero party

after us… Ha. Really, you never know what’s going to happen in the world. How are those kids?”

“It’s Charlotte now. Hmm. It’s only been about a month, so honestly, I don’t know well, but those kids….”

They’re almost finished golden eggs.

I smiled.
