Chapter 223 – 223. Maehwa Swordsman Reincarnated in the Count Family
223. Maehwa sword reincarnated in the count family
All the professors at Goldway Academy were summoned to the conference room.
More than 40 professors, including the dean, are all keeping an eye on Ploy.
“…… I’m not sure if the monster is really demonic, but even if it’s not demonic, it’s dangerous. I couldn’t even counter the monster properly. We must report to His Highness, the Cobalt King, and request support.”
Ploy said to the professors.
The professors are all deep in thought, and Dean Harvis’s face is seriously hardened.
The only non-professors here are me and the student council president, Melissa.
I attended the meeting as an official, and Melissa was the student representative. Also, Melissa is the eldest daughter of the Duke of Argen. If she harnesses the power of her family, she can wield an influence over the academy that even the dean cannot ignore.
“…… Professor Floy. The monster may not be a demon. Isn’t it possible that some warlock created a demonic creature and left it in that cave? There is not enough information to determine that the creature is a demon.”
Dean Harvis was negative about the existence of demons. Contrary to his benevolent appearance, he is full of greed.
Just looking at the fact that I gave him money in the form of a donation and was able to attend Goldway Academy.
If he had been a person of integrity, I would not have been able to attend the academy.
‘If rumors spread that there is a devil, the city will immediately fall into chaos. The citizens will panic, and the students who attended the academy will quickly try to get out of the city.’
At worst, you’d think the academy might close. Also, it is unknown how much money and time will be spent searching for the hidden devil.
From the dean’s point of view, he would deny the devil for his career, money, and power.
‘On the surface it is. You’ll find the devil behind you. It’s too big a risk to leave alone.’
Some of the professors also agree with the dean.
“If there is no hard evidence, our Goldway Academy is the people of the Cobalt Kingdom… No, you will be accused of causing chaos by everyone on the continent.”
And there were professors who disagreed with them.
“But what if it’s really the devil? The demon painted a magic circle with the thief’s blood. We haven’t yet fully interpreted the magic circle drawn by the demon.”
The professor pointed to one side of the wall in the conference room.
There are two magic circles drawn in black ink on a large sheet of paper. One is on the wall of the cave, and the other is a magic circle drawn on the ceiling and drawn on paper.
“Professor Mariel, who went into the cave to investigate, said he could find no magical response. Those magic circles might be plausible graffiti.”
“Graffiti…. Are you a professor in the Department of Magic? Treating such an elaborate magic circle as graffiti? We just don’t know about that magic circle. It is our job to interpret the magic circle, and we must find the devil for the sake of the world.”
“As the dean said, it is still too early to judge that he is a demon. And, objectively, there’s a pretty good chance he’s not a demon.”
Professors exchange opinions with each other. Although each professor has a different opinion, it can be broadly classified into three categories. Those who think they are demons and those who think they are not. And those who are silent without hastily speaking.
“For a moment. Professors! Be quiet! Whether it is a demon or a monster cannot yet be determined. Professor Ploy is a professor in the Department of Inspection and has no knowledge of demons, right? Also, student Eugene doesn’t have much knowledge about demons either. There is too little evidence to judge them as demons based solely on their opinions.”
“…… ,”
Ploy’s right eye twitched. However, she said nothing. As the dean said, she has no knowledge of demons.
‘This is the reality of swordsmanship professors.’
It was mostly the magic department professors who were giving their opinions. Most of the swordsmanship professors are silent. If I just open my mouth here, I’ll only get hurt by the magic department professors.
“Dean. What is the dean’s opinion?”
“I think we need to find out about that magic circle first. Does anyone know what that magic circle is?”
“…….”
Professors shut up.
There was no way that the Archmage, Dean Habis, knew that the magic circle was them.
‘Knowledge of the devil. Among them, knowledge related to demonic magic is very rare and forbidden.’
The magic circle was drawn by Yuria.
Yuria received a book from Bella Heutris, who made a contract with the demon of plague in the past, and those magic circles are the knowledge written in that book.
“Professor Priscilla. What do you think, Professor?”
All eyes turned to Priscilla. Priscilla sat quietly in her chair with her arms crossed.
“…… Why are you asking me that?”
Speak rudely to the dean without hesitation.
I looked around. I know she’s a dragon, so I guess so, but how will others react?
The reaction of the professors was more tolerant than expected.
‘Is it because Priscilla is externally active as an Archmage?’
I watched the dean’s reaction.
“Isn’t Professor Priscilla excellent in her knowledge of magic circles?”
The dean treats Priscilla carefully. She is a little softer in her words than when dealing with other professors.
He must have known Psilla’s identity. When she sees that Priscilla is acting as her professor, she may have some sort of deal between them.
“…….”
Priscilla got up from her chair and walked to the wall where the paper with the magic circle was attached.
She raised her finger and pointed at the magic circle to her right. It is a magic circle drawn on the ceiling of the underground cave.
“It’s a sacrifice ritual magic circle. It has the effect of changing the vitality of living things into magical power.”
… It is indeed a dragon. It matches the effect Yuria said.
“You are amazing. Professor Priscilla. If it’s an evil magic circle like that, it must be a magic circle drawn by the devil.”
A professor said admiringly. But Priscilla shook her head.
“I can’t be sure.”
“Yes?”
“This magic circle is a magic circle that is often used not only by demons but also by warlocks. There is no law saying that only demons use wicked magic.”
“…….”
Priscilla then pointed to the magic circle next to her.
“This magic circle has two meanings.”
“…… How about two?”
This time the dean asked. The eyes of the wizards, including him, sparkle with curiosity about new knowledge.
“One is a summons. This is a magic circle to summon the demon lord.”
At Priscilla’s words, the surroundings instantly became an uproar.
“What crazy! You’re the Demon King!”
“Are you really the devil?!”
“Quiet. Be quiet Professor Priscilla’s explanation is not over yet.”
At the dean’s words, everyone shut their mouths and paid attention to Priscilla. She said Priscilla, looking around her as if she was pitiful.
“I don’t know why you are making a fuss. There’s no way you can summon the demon lord with just one magic circle like this. To summon the demon king simply by sacrificing humans, you will need at least a kingdom-level sacrifice.”
“…… What is the other meaning of this magic circle?”
“It is worship.”
“Worship… ?”
“This magic circle is also the symbol of the demon lord. Lesser demons draw this magic circle and worship the demon lord.”
“According to Professor Priscilla… Are you saying that the thing in the cave is a demon?”
“I do not know.”
“…… The professor just didn’t tell you. Lesser demons worship the demon lord through magic circles.”
“Devil worshipers with superior knowledge know all of these magic circles. Just because I drew these two magic circles, I can’t jump to the conclusion that they are demons. Aren’t the things in the cave simply painted magic circles with human blood?”
“…… It means that humans, not demons, could be the culprits.”
I found out about the magic circle, but the matter fell more and more into obscurity.
The meeting continued.
Priscilla got up midway and walked out of the conference room.
“Professor Priscilla. Where are you going?”
“My research is more urgent than this meeting.”
“…….”
The dean made no reply to her rude attitude. Now you can be sure. He knows Priscilla’s identity.
The meeting finally ended in the evening.
“I don’t know if the one in the cave is a demon or a demon worshiper. As the matter is a matter, more information is needed. Unless there is a valid basis for determining that it is a demon, we will defer judgment on the creature Professor Floy claims to have seen. All work as usual. However, you must not divulge anything related to this meeting. For the academy and the city. I trust that everyone will cooperate.”
“Could it be that the dean wants to bury things like this?”
“No way. I am fully aware of the danger of this. I will call a demon expert to the academy, and some professors will work with me on a secret investigation into demons.”
As a result, it wasn’t that there was a massive search for demons right now.
‘As Yuria intended.’
It was a good thing for me. I still want to enjoy the academy life. There are still women who haven’t taken it.
I glanced at one of the professors. The woman twitched the corners of her lips as her eyes met mine and made her lustful expression.
‘The pervert I met in front of the hamburger shop the other day…. Did this mean that I asked to see you again?’
She is the woman who had sex with me on the street while standing in line in front of a burger joint. At the time, I was wearing an academy uniform. He said he had sex with me even though he knew my identity.
‘A lewd year. I’ll have to visit you later.’

“Ha. The dean has no intention of investigating properly. As time goes on, the demon must be wanting to run away from the city.”
Ploy lamented as he leaned over to the window of the dark hallway.
My thoughts on her are the same as hers. The dean will let go of this incident. Because that’s convenient from the dean’s point of view.
“Professor Ploy must have been disappointed in the dean.”
“Dissappointed. If I were the dean, I thought I would be more proactive.”
“What do you think is the right way to deal with it?”
“Even if the citizens are not notified, all the professors will step out and find the devil… Oops What, what are you doing?”
I reached out and touched Ploy’s chest and buttocks. One hand slid into her blouse and massaged his voluptuous tits, the other slid into her pants and rubbed her cunt.
“What are you doing? I’m just caressing what I see.”
“Lord, Lord…. This is a hallway. If someone comes… !”
“The sun has set. Shall we come here? And… Your pussy is wet.”
“This… Aang….”
“If it is my scabbard, please accept my six swords as if it were a scabbard.”
“Hem… Yes…. Lord….”
I lowered the female knight’s pants and inserted my cock.
•••
Melissa came out to the student council room and when we were alone, she asked me.
“Eugene. You asked about the devil the other day, and you and Professor Floy almost died in a cave while investigating the devil’s tracks. You knew early on that the devil lurked in this city. Why didn’t you tell me?”
“…… It was just a guess. Heading to the cave with Professor Floy was to find evidence. Who would believe me if I told you that there are demons without proof.”
“If you had told me the truth and asked for help, I would have helped you.”
My eyes lit up when I heard Melissa’s words. This is your chance.
“…… Can you really help?”
“I am the student president. If a student wants legitimate help, he does not refuse it.”
“There are a few suspicious places this time. Professor Floy is busy preparing for the contest, and the other professors won’t believe me. Chairman. Please help me.”
“Doubt is… Is it something related to the devil?”
“I do not know. I want to check that out.”
“I will help. What do you want to check?”
“Turtle Dormitory. I intend to check it out.”
“Turtle Dormitory? No problem there… Oh There were rumors that there were ghosts out there. However, no student actually saw the ghost. I think it’s one of the rumors in the academy…. You must think differently.”
“No, there is no way smoke comes out of a chimney that has been removed, so you never know.”
“It doesn’t make sense that there are demons lurking within the academy… , I get it. Check it out I was worried about rumors too. When are you planning to go?”
“Now…. No, I’m going tonight. Ghosts usually come out late at night.”
