It seemed like a flame rose up with a snap.
　In fact, Relivia's red hair, standing in front of the demon, was swaying in the wind.
　Her thin, white arms were folded in front of her chest, and her azure blue eyes were shining with confidence.

　The appearance of the girl, a descendant of a brave man, seemed to make the demons slightly trepidatious.

''That idiot........''

　Mattelus holds his head up.

'Descendants of the brave...?'

　He narrowed his eyes at 17.
　He was somewhat intrigued.
　He asks Mucha to explain.

''She's a daughter of the Grand Dukes of Diriban, a direct descendant of Zenarest Diriban.

''Isn't the Grand Dukes of Diriban one of the most prominent families in the Aystiban Empire? Is that young lady a student of Branch 5?

　17 looks at Relivia's outfit again.
　The Adventurer's School's uniform is not much different in design from the main school and other branches.
　It came to that shape as a result of prioritizing the efficiency of the magic granted to it.
　The only difference is the color.

　But Relivia's uniform was not the 'red' of the main school, but the 'black' of Chapter 5.

''She has an older brother...''

Yeah. Iolada.

And it was Lacelle who broke him.

Okay. I see. Hello, vengeance.

What is the matter with you?

　Lelivia exclaims.

"................................

　They all exclaimed.
　What surprised even the demoness was her distance.
　In an instant, she had slipped into the bosom of the demoness.

　And the magic was held in her hand.

　【Blast Splitting Formation】!

　The impact of the blast was released around them.
　In an instant, the uninhabited house where the demons had been hardened was blown away.
　It's an intermediate level magic, but it's such a close proximity.

''It must have taken quite a bit of damage...''

　Lelivia smiles.

　But..........

''Hm. That's quite a magical power.''

　A hand reached out, still in a cloud of dust and smoke.
　An arm as thick as the trunk of a large tree catches Relivia's neck.
　Her physical strength is tremendous.
　In an instant, her neck screamed.

''(This guy.........''

　What Relivia saw in her eyes was a one-eyed demon.
　His physical strength and the speed with which he was able to catch Lelivia, even if it was a surprise attack.
　But what was even more surprising was that she was standing unconcerned, having eaten the magic from earlier.

''(Looks like someone from somewhere........)

　Suddenly, bitter memories of the entrance exam flashed through Relivia's mind.

　Relivia tries to escape for the time being.
　But at that moment, smoke moved again.
　It wasn't long before she wondered if it was another demon, but it was a young man with a scar on his nose who did the sideways pass.

　It's Borunga.

　When he comes charging in with his sword at the ready, he swings down to the man's arm as hard as he can with the strength already applied.

''Gugu...!

　The one-eyed demon's face twisted.
　The man who had a cool expression on his face, even with Lelivia's magic, raised a muffled voice
　The moment the power relaxed, Relivia kicked the man away.
　When her hand completely leaves her hand, she flies with her signature 【Transfer】.

　I expected him to take a distance from me once - but no.
　Relivia went directly behind the man.
　Consolidating the magic power in the palm of her hand, she activates her magic without a pause.

　[Gouflame----]

Don't push it, girl!

　A hand reached out from behind the smoke again.
　It was a female demon, not Mucha.
　She catches Lelivia's leg and tries to slam it straight to the floor.

''Guh!''

　Lelivia interrupted the magic.
　Quickly, she activated the next magic.

　[Transfer]

　Execute the short-range transfer again.
　Relivia and the female demon were in the skies of the Sow Trading Company.
　What was supposed to be a slamming of Relivia on the floor of the house ended up empty.
　After getting out of her predicament, Relivia activated her magic once again.

''Let go of me!

　[Fireball]

　Unleash an intermediate level single flame attribute magic.
　The female demon's eyes were dyed red lotus.
　As it was, red flames bloomed in the sky.

　The one who jumped out of the explosive flames was Relivia.
　It seems that because she was struck at close range, she was also wrapped up in the flames.
　Her white skin was slightly sooty.

　Even so, Relivia is still in good spirits.
　I'm sure there's not a hint of shade in her piercing gaze.

Tch!

　Lelivia heard the sound of her landing on the ground and clicked her tongue.
　The one who appeared was the woman from earlier.
　Even though she received an intermediate level of magic, she was almost unharmed.
　Her curly blonde hair was only slightly frayed.

　Her candy-colored eyes glistened coldly, and her mouth was glowering with a straight line, glaring (heigei).
　From the expression on his face, he was definitely angry.

''As expected of you, Majin-sama.

　Lelivia twisted her face in an abhorrent manner.

　Shortly thereafter, she heard the sound of the wind cutting at her side.
　She thought it was an enemy attack, but no.
　It was Borunga coming out of a house that was still covered in explosive smoke.

　He went straight into a house in the opposite direction.

'Hey!　Are you okay...?　You!

　Lelivia confirms.
　There is no response for a moment.
　A cold sweat breaks out on her back, but the next moment she blows away the debris and Boronga appears.
　He brushes away the dust and holds his sword as if nothing had happened.

'Ah. No problem.'

'It's not very convincing when you say that with your cheeks red and swollen.

　Lelivia let out a sigh.
　She must have been attacked by a demon.
　There was a clear mark on her cheek where she had been hit.

　The demons finally come out of the house as the two of them re-position themselves.
　They blow away the explosive smoke that was floating around.
　The female demon joined them there.

''Are you okay, 17, 19?''

No problem.

Yeah. Trivial. But you've been a real lazybones. That was your first grade.

　The demon called 17 looks at the uniforms of Relivia and the others.
　He confirmed the 'Cherry Blossom (Serigia)' emblem, which indicates the primary student.

''It's perfect as material. If we can take them home, mama will be pleased.'

But 17....

　It was 19 that disagreed with the opinion.
　He disagreed with his expression and demeanor, albeit with a few words.

'I know, 19, but for now, I'd rather send 47 and 83 to the hiding place.

I think that's the point...

Please hold.

　Mixed in with the conversation between 17 and 19 was the female demon from earlier.
　Lelivia and the others had arrived at the scene a little while ago and overheard the conversation, but the demons had called her 21.

''I, I thought it would be enough if one of us stayed behind...''

You can do it, 21.

　19 asks.
　His one-eyed eyes flashed sharply.
　But 21's demeanor is calm.
　He bows his head reverently.
　He must be so confident.

''I'll definitely show you how to catch these people.

All right, 21. All right, 21, you're in charge.

　As he said that, 17 turned his head away from Relivia and the others.
　Likewise, Mattelus and Mucha also turned their faces down.
　For a moment, Matellus had a worried expression on his face, but Relivia silenced him, saying it was his imagination.

　17 activates the magic.

　[Transfer]

　As darkness envelops them, the demons disappear.
　All that was left was 21.
　And then Relivia and Bornga, the remaining students of Chapter 5.

'It's a tame one,'

　It was Bornga who complained about the situation.
　Somewhat disapprovingly, he stared at the remaining 21.

　Relivia, on the other hand, had a different opinion.

'You're a fool. You should feel saved. Aside from that woman, the rest of them are definitely monsters.''

Well, well, how do you do, Relivia D'Riverdale?

　21 wrinkled his brow.
　Relivia flicked her tongue out.

''Oh..... Did you hear me?　I'm sorry.

Isn't it you who's licking it?

I'm not saying that. It's just that you're the weakest of them all.

'I won't deny that. But the way it's said pisses me off.

　21 killing spirit swelled up.
　I felt the magic power around the magic circuit amplified.

''Bornga, get it together.

No need...

　With that, Bornga walks away.

　He stood in front of 21, holding only his sword.

It's a good thing that it takes two of you to deal with a woman, or else Lacelle would laugh at you. And besides, I don't feel sorry for Mr. Luxor, who taught me chivalry.

　Borunga took a wide stance and held his sword at the ready.
