Crutiara: Where New Demon Lords are Born 29. Farewell
The crack reached the bottom and causes the amethyst to break. A flow of liquid aura circulated around it and formed a figure of a monster. Its head and claws depict a wolf and its body is a well-built titan. It has nothing below its waste as it floats. The pressure in the air became heavy. Its body absorbed most of the cave rocks until it materializes. Then, it made a roar that resonated throughout the cave. It screamed the same way he did in my head. "SHOW YOURSELF, ARGOS! I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE! I SMELL YOUR PRESENCE YOU PEST!" "Argos? What a lame ancient name for an easily forgettable character," I murmured. "I don't mind such jokes," Nazuno replies. "Moreover, it is speculating how it got activated." "Do you know anything about forbidden gems?" "Usually, they contain swarms of monsters detained for periods of time. Most of the monsters contained in it are evil ones that became refugees." "Un," I nodded.
Crutiara: Where New Demon Lords are Born 1. The New Transfer Student
In this dusty room, everything was scattered. All over the place, books tumbled down the cabinet. It was unsightly. It is the leaves from the outside that make up the floor pattern.Then there was I, a peacefully sleeping man. While I drowse, I salivate unconsciously. For an unknown reason, my pillow, which is supposed to be on my head, is placed under my foot.I groan as I roll to the right edge of the bed in my sleep. I fell, of course. The back of my head hit the ground hard, waking me up from the imaginary paradise I'd been dreaming of.I groaned for real this time. In no time, I rubbed the back of my head to ease the pain. I mumbled my curse."Argh!" It's been my 6,812th day of living this miserable life. I wonder every time I clean up this mess, it keeps growing. I never thought there was a hellish place other than hell.I can't ask Risano to clean up again. She doesn't care. This room is my room by the way. There is no harm in asking for a cleaning service, but if Risano sees it
Crutiara: Where New Demon Lords are Born 2. Tears of Fear
She’s cute. I can’t deny it. But this isn’t the time to think of thoughts like that!She is 5' 4" tall with long brown hair and a slim body. Her chest and bottom are average. Judging from our uniforms, we’re going to attend the same university.When she takes my hand and stands up, she quickly wipes her eyes until no tears are visible. The shaking that she felt had stopped. She’s surprisingly calm.She bathed in sweat. But even if she was, she should have entered university by now. Since when are these guys chasing her?“Are you fine now?”She nods as an answer.Turning around, I begin walking. “Then there’s no time to waste. We’re already late. We should rush through the gates…”But she pulls my cloth to stop me from walking. As I turn towards her, she shakes her head. Is she deaf?“You’re late as well. Why are you slowing down?”With a whisper, she replies. “Guards.”Does she want to take custody of these smugs? Does she know that we’re already an hour late to catch our breath at the
Crutiara: Where New Demon Lords are Born 3. Listening to a Lecture
There was a realm where demons lived in the past. Zeno is ruled by a demon lord and was once a place prone to human invasion.Without a clear reason, humans once treated us as pests. In their eyes, we are evil. We did nothing at all.It all came from the tales of the reborn hero fighting the demon lord. Those absurd myths became human religion and later became international beliefs.Those myths led to a war, an unreasonable war between humans and demons. Those humans just couldn't stop back then. Every demon lord becomes a threat to them.Humans are a complicated race. Even though they are weak unlike the beastmen, the sylphs, and the others, they are formidable creatures. A demon can have a hard time reading human actions.That made the hierarchy of the demon realm become different. Instead of demon nobles, war generals became demon lords. The monarchy became a competition for power. Gluttony was replaced by unity.Demon Lords are volatile except for one… well, almost one. He is an un
Crutiara: Where New Demon Lords are Born 4. Aroma of Food and Coffee
This lunch time, I accepted Majiro’s request to walk around with him. I would have lost my way back to my classroom if I had not trusted Majiro with my freedom.We first stood in front of the building where the classrooms are located. In preparation for his active introduction, Majiro opened his arms wide."Welcome to the sophomore school building. This is where sophomore classes are held. There are a lot of sophomores at Crutiara, and a building is adequate for them."The school building is a huge two-story building with a huge area. Its exterior has pillar designs, and its roofs are triangular and pyramidal.The first floor’s ceiling is impossible to reach for a six footer. No wonder why classrooms are also wide.Do they have a different design for the buildings from other years?" I asked.“No. Do you see the buildings there?” He points his fingers toward three buildings with the same layout. “The numbers pasted on the building represent the years of students.”“So that roman numeral
Crutiara: Where New Demon Lords are Born 5. Mothers Could Fly
The school will end at 5 PM. The bell rings and the same crowd swarms outside the classroom. The same girl stands up again and walks away with the guards. I was right. Her name was Tsuki Kugiyama. She became the topic of my conversation with Majiro earlier in the park. "Before the break, there's some kind of apocalypse going on. It keeps bugging me. Do you know what's going on? It feels weird not knowing any of your norms." "It isn't the norm, if you can call it that. It has been like that since uhm… two weeks? No, it's been a year already." "A year!?" "Don't you know her, Ritake?" I shook my head. "I barely know anyone who's stepped on Yruiburg's ground." Majiro puts his hand in his chest and slowly smiles while looking at the sky. "Being Ritake's first friend in Yruiburg is such… ughh." I knocked on his head. "Stop moaning! By the way, who the heck is she?" He winks at me and does an idol-like pose. "Tsuki Kugiyama, the lead dancer of the pop group ChENA. She's pretty as hec
Crutiara: Where New Demon Lords are Born 6. Duel Against Failure
And as we got in, I saw a woman flying towards Nazuno. She had the same hair as hers and she looked young with an adult's body. She has a sweet face. She smiles broadly and hugs Nazuno as tightly as she can. Nazuno can't move due to suffocation. It seems like the woman is immature... perhaps out of excitement? "Nazuno, my darling! Did you miss mom!?" Is this the reason why she wanted me to be late? Her mother is excessively sweet. Nazuno tries to find a way to escape, but as I thought, her weakness is physical. "Stop it, Miss Haimika. I can't breathe…" "Eh? My daughter doesn't call me mom? Are you embarrassed because there are other people here?" "Idiot! We're in a formal setting. You should act accordingly!" As soon as Miss Chiho looked at me, our eyes met. Nazuno was able to escape when she lost her grip. But I might be the one who won't be able to escape this time. She narrows her eyes and walks towards me step by step. I flinch back at every move she makes until I'm cornere
Crutiara: Where New Demon Lords are Born 7. The Second and Seventh Day
Plot Driver: Ritake Hanashiba "There is," I said seriously with my furrowed eyebrows. Without thinking of anything, I ran as quickly as possible, all with my Spatial Sense turned on. The only drawback of this is that I can't detect waves. That means I can't see light nor hear a bit of sound. I can describe it as I'm transferred in the particle space dimension. I can sense the particle of the body accelerating in a rapid state as it goes down the stairs, but because I've limited the range to just a few meters, he instantly vanished from my radar. Catching up with that stalker will be hard, knowing that there are too many lineages with ability regarding speed. I need to ask more of her, but that eavesdropper destroyed our time, no romance intended. I feel too bad that I can only apologize to Tsuki through text. If a word comes out that we've been connected, we'll be considered both suspicious individuals. Her 'perfect' image will be destroyed. I think that's what she's scared about.
