The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 16: Dormitory Princess Nobles
(Huh, I really made myself into something troublesome.) While walking on the stone pavement of the academy, Kaizo sighed a few times today.
In front of his eyes was the culprit with his red ponytail hair swaying about. As before she had an empty stomach, she had lost her home and to make matters worse.
It was the result of a duel with a fellow elementalist. No matter what the situation is, this is beyond misfortune. It was definitely none other than the curse of the Blue Palace Witch.
"Uh, are you grumbling? How not manly!" Victoria turned and flicked her finger.
"My house."
"You...."
Kaizo groaned with his half-opened eyes. Victoria turned her eyes to look far away.
"Fight Maniac! Crime!"
"I-I understand! I feel a little bad too!" He blushed and pouted on his lips. It seems like he was at least aware of his crimes.
Since this was the perfect moment, Kaizo blatantly sighed, "Geez, homeless people like me should sleep in the Spirit Forest."
Kaizo slightly sobbed and continued, "Sleeping at night in the Spirit Forest is a serious act of suicide. But how else, my house has burned to the ground." She lowered her shoulders unnaturally to see Victoria.
Victoria bit her lip. And then, he tiptoed and looked into Kaizo's eyes, motionless. His face is near. Kaizo was involuntarily shocked as his nostrils were lightly tickled by the scent of a girl.
"Well-well. In that case, I will compensate you properly!"
"Compensation?" Kaizo muttered with a face somehow twitching with a bad premonition.

Kaizo is brought to the front of the Crow-class female dormitory. Although it was called a dormitory, it was not an ordinary building. It was a luxurious mansion similar to the residence of the upper nobles.
"Eh, what is this?"
"For a while, I will allow you to stay in my room. Be grateful."
"Huh?"
(What a strange thing this high-class woman suddenly proposes.)
"After all, if I leave you outside, Aura will interfere. And since you are my slave spirit, it is natural for me, the elementalist, to take care of you." Victoria told him, bending her empty chest.
"No, it's not that. You're still a girl of my age and I might do something, aren't you considering that?"
"A-Are you planning on doing something to me?" Victoria glares. Kaizo shook his head horizontally.
"Salamander will be on guard. If you try to do something, ash."
"Don't that violate the rules of the dormitory? A man like me, enters a women's dorm."
"It's okay, because you will be treated as my contracted spirit, just like Salamander."
"That's not okay at all." Kaizo replied with her half-opened eyes.
Victoria played her hair in annoyance and pointed her finger, "Ahh, come on, do you want to stay? Or do you want to turn into ashes? Which one?"
"Why are there only two choices?" Kaizo lowered his shoulders and sighed resignedly. Victoria's room was on the second floor of the female dormitory like a noble residence.
"Don't be too noisy, because the dormitory secretary is so scary."
"Y-Yes, I'm sorry for the interruption."
For Victoria, who was ideally portrayed as arrogant, afraid of the dorm secretary, her interest was a little disturbed. While thinking that, he timidly stepped into the room. No matter how rough her personality was, Victoria was a girl.
Besides, she was an extraordinarily beautiful and pitiful girl at the same time, even Kaizo would inevitably admit that. As expected, when he entered the room, he became tense.

"Fire, turn it on."
Victoria recited spirit magic and the room lit up. Victoria's room was not what Kaizo thought in his mind. It was different from the room of a noble princess.
There was a mountain crumbling from a large number of books. Clothes were left to tangle, plush toys and small items and so on, strewn here and there until there was nowhere else to stand.
(It doesn't look like a high-class lady's room in the pedigree.)
"You should at least do the cleaning."
"Uhhhh! Usually, Salamanders are clean. Come on, come on in." Victoria kicked Kaizo on the back, sending him to the center of the room.
"Ouch. Gosh, you actually used such a powerful fire spirit to clean the room, if the elementalists all over the world heard it, I'm sure they would all cry."
"Hmm, Salamander is different from you, he's smart. He also burned the trash."
"Ahh, so. That's good as long as it's comfortable."
Immediately after they argued, a fire-clad Hell Salamander appeared and started collecting the room's trash and tidying it up.
(Indeed, there seems to be a place where scrap paper is burned.)
(If that Victorian fire spirit were to grow, it could match even with a large dragon type. But this pitiful sight, was it made to do things like clean rooms?)
"Thank you, Salamander. A good girl." Victoria muttered by stroking Salamander's back.
"Gerrr. Grrr."
"Are you really a Salamander!?" Kaizo retorted thoughtlessly at the fire spirit that licked with joy.
(The arrogant spirit has been fully tamed.)
Well, if one was gently caressed like that by Victoria, whose outer appearance was at least like a pretty girl, it was understandable to be completely bound.
For now, since there was nowhere to stand, Kaizo also helped clean it up. In the past, because Aidenwyth worked hard for her, homework became her specialty.
He started carrying the books that were in a large pile at his feet to put in the corner of the room. Then, he saw the title written on the front cover of the book.
'The Count And The Naughty Princess', 'Tease Me More, Master!', 'The Princess Was Kidnapped By Pirates'
(Indeed, this is what girls usually like. There are ten such bizarre romance novels, aimed at a teenage girl.)
"Hmm, so you like this kind of thing. That was a little unexpected."
"Don't look!"
Victoria's pillow was thrown, landing a direct hit on Kaizo's face, and she was rolled over and squashed by the book.
"If you don't want anyone to see, you should have tidied it up. I feel that liking such a novel is no big deal."
"Secretly, it's not like I like it! Err, yes, I borrowed it from a friend, so I had no choice but to read it!"
"Hmm, so. You borrowed twelve volumes of a novel you didn't like."
"I-said shut up!!" Victoria cried out with her teary eyes and hit Kaizo. It was weak, probably because he was embarrassed.
Kaizo shrugged his shoulders and placed his hands on the floor to stand up. And, just then, the hand came into contact with another soft one.
(Dn?)
A rather nice fabric to touch. Is that silk? It is soft, smooth and very nice to touch. Unintentionally, he grabbed it. At the edge, a white flutter was attached to him.
(White head!?)
With a twitching face, he looked at her hand. Kaizo's hands tightly clasped the underwear tied with a fine rope. Surprisingly, it was a rather mature silk underwear. Cold sweat splashed on his forehead.
"Hn, what are you doing?"
Kaizo became confused and put it in his pocket.
(What will I do by putting it in! What I really do! Doesn't this make me a total pervert?!)
"What's? Why are you so surprised?" Victoria frowned and brought her face closer with suspicion.
"N-no, it's okay!" Kaizo stood up while shaking his head.
(Is there a topic that can distract him?)
Kaizo looked around, then he realized something.
"O-by the way, about this room, don't you have a roommate?"
Even if this was the academy dormitory attended by the princesses, the room was a bit too big for one person to live in.
(With such a chaotic room, wouldn't the girl of his roommate be angry? Moreover, is it good to accept a man even without permission from his roommate?)
After which, Victoria tightly bit her lips and looked down muttering, "No. Nobody wants to be in the same room as someone like me."
"Don't tell me, you don't have an elementalist partner?"
"Who needs things like a partner. As long as I have a strong spirit, I alone am more than enough." Victoria folded her hands and declared so, she looked like she was pretending to be tough with all her might.
(Why is that?)
This person did have a hard personality, but as an elementalist, his abilities were top class. He thought with such ability, he could ignore any team.
"But without gathering 5 people, you can't get into the Sword Style Festival."
"I, I'll set it up somehow. If I had to, I would somehow gather that many people." Victoria turned her eyes awkwardly. It seemed like he did not want to touch on this topic.
"Well that, you're hungry, right?" Victoria was beating with force.
"Hn, ah, the soup that I had been waiting for so long, which I happily accepted, was ruined."
