Surprising Even Breathing

20 – I think I made a pretty good first impression

“Sin, sorry! Mr. Demesis! My, my, my preparation was insufficient in many ways!”

“?”

Trunen fell flat on the ground.

I just asked when the dangerous monster would appear, but he was begging me for a mistake.

“What do you mean? Are you saying that preparations aren’t enough, that monsters won’t come out? Is there a problem with the illusion magic?”

“That, that. That’s not it! The Great Grizzly Bear that just came out was the monster I prepared!”

“But didn’t you say it was a dangerous monster?”

I asked Trunen again.

Where is the Great Grizzly Bear dangerous?

It is a monster that can be caught even with five dragonian warriors.

If it were to be a dangerous monster, it would have to be a 1st or 2nd grade ancient species, phantom species, or teratogens.

That’s because I was a worthy opponent.

It was like that during the subjugation of the Western Demon Lord.

Even if the Great Grizzly Bear appeared, I didn’t even care because it couldn’t even approach me.

“I-I was stupid and judged the Great Grizzly Bear to be a dangerous monster! The fact that I didn’t know Demesis-nim’s abilities at all. I apologize again!”

The more I looked down with doubt, the more Trunen’s lower back bent.

At this point, what he said seems to be true.

The real Great Grizzly Bear is a dangerous monster.

Is it a humanoid joke?

I tilted my head.

Since it was my first class, I might have chosen a light opponent as a test.

There was a feeling that steam was leaking because an excessively weak monster appeared, but if he was, I had to accept it.

“I get it. The only monster prepared was the Great Grizzly Bear.”

I shook my head for a moment in dejection and looked around.

The other students were staring at Trunen, stiff as if they were thinking the same thing as me.

They were timid students who couldn’t speak properly, so even if they were dissatisfied with the level of insignificant monsters, they couldn’t express anything.

The first class ended just like that.

The students in my class were introverted, so they were quiet, and the professor was unsatisfactory.

Still, no one fainted or ran away when they saw me, so I think I left a pretty good first impression.

I left the classroom in silence.

*

Some time after Demesis leaves in the cold silence.

Trunen muttered as if he had lost his mind.

“Wait, how strong of a monster should I prepare… Ah, no, why did the dean ask me to take charge of a person like this… Ah, I’m going crazy…”

He packed the magic stones and artifacts in the bag, hugged the booklet, and stumbled out of the classroom.

There was nothing like the authoritative image you usually see in academy classes.

The wizard’s trembling face in fear was all Trunen showed the students.

The students were still fixed on their chairs as if they were in the illusion magic, and slowly warmed up.

The first to speak was the barbarian.

“It’s f*cking scary.”

As if those words opened the preface, the moans of other students continued.

“Oh God…”

A saintess candidate who puts her hands together and prays.

“Kyaaa-”

A feline beastman who holds his tail upright and gnaws.

Tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk.

The 3rd prince of the empire tapping the desk with his fingers for no reason.

month after month.

Even a student from the South shaking the classroom floor with his legs shaking.

The reactions were different, but each was soothing his shocked mind in his own way.

haaa-

Broa let out a deep sigh and let go of the tension.

Finally witnessed the power of Demesis.

The Great Grizzly Bear is by no means a weak monster.

It was the monster that my father had asked me to form a party to deal with when teaching Broa.

He grabbed it like a toy, twisted it, and threw it away like garbage, so Demesis would laugh at least even the 1st and 2nd level monsters.

How strong are you?

My mind was dazed by the distance and fear.

“Wasn’t that monster Great Grizzly Bear hit?”

The barbarian grabbed anyone nearby and asked.

The Dwarf, who was stroking his beard and relieved his burden, answered his question.

“Yes. It was a 4th grade field boss type monster we know.”

“Yeah, but Demesis seemed to run away after seeing Yongin. Was I the only one who felt that way?”

“Well, that’s what I saw too.”

It was absurd, but everyone felt that way.

The Great Grizzly Bear must have been terrified and ran away and was captured by Demesis.

It was a truth that felt more frightening the more I recalled it.

“Sah, they say you’re a man-eating dragon, you’re so scary. Can I keep going to the academy?”

Although he was a barbarian, a symbol of courage and fighting spirit, he muttered like a frightened wild boar.

“You really must have seen the Dragonian Prince for the first time. The students who were afraid of him had already run away after seeing him once at the entrance ceremony. Only students who were ready in mind gathered here.”

“Eh, the entrance ceremony? I didn’t know the way, so I couldn’t find it! this is unfair! Isn’t the original academy special class the best place? I really didn’t know that I would be taking classes with such a scary Yongin!”

“I’m sorry.”

A whining barbarian.

A dwarf who answered roughly.

Everyone was sitting in the classroom silently, but the feeling was not much different from that of the barbarians.

Seeing it in person is even scarier.

At the entrance ceremony, I only witnessed Demesis briefly reflected on the second-floor seats, but when I met him in the classroom, I was trembling so much that I couldn’t breathe.

“Your father really is too much. He said that he would reward me if I became close with such a person, but he would rather order me to commit suicide.”

For some reason, the prince muttered as if feeling betrayed by himself in the corner.

“I ask the merciful Goddess Reinatis. Please lend me the strength to overcome this fear to the weak and courageous me. Please take care of me so that I can safely graduate from this academy and be of help to the church… … .”

The saintess candidate was trembling and praying.

The paladin closed her eyes and put her hands together as she did, and a few gathered around, comforted by her voice.

The students who came to their senses in the chaotic atmosphere went out of the classroom.

The first class ended in an instant and shockingly, leaving a lot of time empty.

*

Broa closed her eyes in the classroom and listened to the candidate saint’s prayer, and gradually realized something.

But will I really be okay like this?

Come to think of it, Demesis seemed to be watching him.

Ever since I first swung a sword at him at the entrance examination, we had kept eye contact.

In fact, I was caught spying on him even before class started today.

A bit of an uneasy mind.

I kept thinking about what was inconvenient.

Demesis is scary.

It’s really scary.

However, she attacked him at the entrance examination.

And I was scared, so I fell on the floor and cried and cried.

Was that really the right thing to do?

‘I’m sorry! Demesis!’

As soon as Trunen, the head of the academy’s special class and originally a reputed professor at the academy, fell on his knees and begged him.

Even the examiners at the entrance exam hall all knelt in front of him.

The students in class today all avoided Demesis’ gaze.

But only I, the only one, looked straight at him and tried to attack.

‘Maybe I was filmed?’

In an instant, goosebumps rushed from head to toe.

She dared to attack him, and did not wish for anything wrong.

After swinging the sword, I was just scared, so I lay on the floor and moaned.

Wasn’t that what made him uncomfortable?

If so, all explained.

Demesis looked down at herself at the entrance ceremony. He met eyes while everyone else in the classroom was avoiding their eyes earlier.

It was that he was upset with himself.

Because Demesis kept appearing in nightmares, his presence touched me even more.

“omg.”

What if it goes on like this?

It reminds me of the Great Grizzly Bear, who was dragged and dragged by the intangible pressure while running away from Demesis and twisted his neck.

Demesis was wearing a gray hoodie and cape in his academy uniform.

Without the slightest hesitation, he crushed the heart of the Great Grizzly Bear.

The figure of the Great Grizzly Bear, which howled desperately, overlaps with itself.

Demesis could one day twist her own head like that and crush her heart.

“Ugh.”

He let out a short moan at the shocking fact.

Prayer or something, peace of mind or something, you can’t stay still.

‘Sah, I have to apologize.’

First of all, I had to make a mistake with Demesis.

you can never beat him

Great grizzly bear?

stronger than her

If Demesis was playing with that monster with one hand, he wouldn’t be able to take a bite from him.

‘I need to apologize as soon as possible and clear his mind!’

I should have wished him while I still had the chance.

I thought that Demesis would be able to kill her anytime, anywhere.

Either run away from this academy as far as possible, or lie flat in front of him and pray.

I had to do one or the other quickly.

Broa abandoned the option of running away.

Demesis, constantly appearing in nightmares, followed her wherever she went.

To soothe this anxious mind, the first priority was to bow down.

She jumped up from her seat and left the classroom.

*

It was near the training ground that I encountered Demesis again.

Demesis was scared and avoided by people around him wherever he went, so it was easy to know where he was by following the commotion.

He was walking leisurely through the academy campus.

Broa flinched in fear before making a mistake.

My limbs trembled, not knowing when or when to speak.

At that moment, Demesis’ gaze swung back to her first.

“oh!”

Startled, Broa shrank and took a step back.

“Did you come to the training ground too?”

“Yes, yes?”

“Then together… Oh, no. Let’s see what we can do.”

He was about to say something, but stopped when he saw Broa’s almost weeping expression.

For some reason, I was very angry.

Upon receiving the sudden question, Broa froze like ice.

Demesis looked away from Broa and went back on the road.
