The Elemental Sword Demon King
Episode 42: Introduction of New Students
POV: Kirigaya Kaizo

Afterwards, Kaizo, who separated from Victoria and the others, immediately walked towards the principal's office. He knocked and opened the door.
"You're late, how many seconds are you planning on making this woman wait?" It was the first thing Aidenwyth said that was sitting at the office desk, in a cold tone.
Blue Palace Witch, 【Aidenwyth Miel Kais】
Her figure was certainly a dazzlingly beautiful woman, but she was originally a spirit knight with long military service, whose name entered first in the list of twelve knight commanders (Numbers).
She has wavy gray blonde hair. His gray pupils shone behind his little glasses. The dim sunlight made it look even more dazzling.
"I'm sorry, I heard that you have business with me and no matter what I do, walking here makes my legs heavy."
"Hmm, so now you can pull out your rather naughty mouth, right? Where did the pure obedient boy from that time go? Really, this thing called the flow of time is cruel."
"You're the only one who hasn't changed, Aidenwyth. Your outward appearance as well as your cunning character." Kaizo said with disdain.
Aidenwyth was one of the few people who knew him three years ago. And he is the doer who summons Kaizo, who dumps the name of the Strongest Sword Style Holder (Rei Assar), to the academy and attempts to get him to participate in the Sword Style Festival two months later.
He didn't tell her the reason for that. Although, often the Witch of the Blue Palace worked hard on Kaizo without telling him anything.
"That's right, you really have changed. Compared to three years ago, you have become very weak. In a training match some time ago, what kind of miserable performance was that when facing an opponent of that level? If it was you from the past, you would have defeated that one person in less than three minutes."
"You're watching? As usual your hobbies are bad."
"In such miserable circumstances, the qualification of your participation for the Sword Style Festival is also doubtful. Or, did you happen to defeat that military spirit?"
"That time is...." Kaizo muttered a little.
It was not that he defeated her with just his own strength. Kaizo, who has a chance encounter with her former contracted spirit who has turned and is engulfed in despair, is given the power to stand up once again by the red-haired Hell Salamander girl.
Suddenly, the sensation of her soft lips reappeared in her mind. In order to eliminate it and clear the evil thoughts, Kaizo shook his head in confusion.
"I also think I'm miserable. I haven't even been able to fully use my contracted spirit power." Kaizo dropped his eyes onto his right hand, which was engraved with a spirit seal.
"Are you still unable to forget your previous woman? How stubborn."
"Don't mess around! To me, Alicia isn't like that!"
"Instead, being grumpy made him even more suspicious. If you like, how about getting a lover or something in this academy? It might even shift a little loneliness."
"Love?"
"Or, are the girls in the academy too childish? Then I'm good too." Aidenwyth smiled bewitchingly and slightly pushed his chest area with his fingertips.
Kaizo accidentally saw a black lacy underwear like an adult on her cleavage.
"Ja-don't mess around!"
"That's a joke. Hmm, with that tone, it seems like you haven't reached that level yet. I've heard rumors that you made a pretty little-breasted girl and the spirit of naked socks waiting for you and enjoying life with an inappropriate harem."
"Gee!"
Trying to refute, Kaizo was at a loss for words. Looking at it objectively, it was the truth and it was painful not to be able to deny it.
"Aidenwyth, did you call me just to tell me a useless joke?"
"That's true, but of course it's not the only one."
Aidenwyth scrunched his chair and faced the living room on the indoor side.
"I have a girl I want to introduce you to. Okay, come on in"
"Good."
From the inner room, there was a sound like a bell being played. The one who opened the door and appeared was a girl wearing a black uniform like clothes, different from the academy uniform.
It was a beautiful girl, whose long black hair was so impressive, to the point that she was shocked. He has black pupils. Without a second thought, Kaizo was fascinated by his neat and clean appearance.
"Eh?" When his eyes met hers, he made a confused face for some reason.
"Errm, you, Kirigaya Kaizo?" Blinking her eyes nonstop, the girl asked.
"Ahh, that's true, but...."
"But my impression is very, very,"
(W-what's wrong with this?)
"But, that's true. He's a man after all and it's been three years." The girl muttered to herself in a voice that Kaizo could not hear.
After which, he looked at Kaizo's face again and said, "Yes, there must be a resemblance. Anyway, this is okay."
"What's up, Tiana?" Aidenwyth exclaimed, looking confused.
"Ah, sorry! Err, this is the first time I've seen a male elementalist!" The girl named Tiana shook her head in confusion.
Kaizo faced Aidenwyth and asked, "Em, who is this girl?"
Then, the girl, for some reason, made a pouting expression and pursed her lips, "I know that, you don't remember. Well, it's okay."
"He is a recently accepted student who is about to enter the same Crow Class as you."
"The student accepted? Uh!" Kaizo. They talked about it at the cafe a while ago.
(This girl is the only one who has the strongest saint attribute spirit.)
Lesley said that she was the daughter of a noble social status, but, after all, in this academy the women with noble social status were all around her, so she did not feel anything special.
(After that, he said that, his chest was big.)
Without thinking, she glanced towards the chest area of the uniform like a dress.
(Indeed, of course.) Kaizo agreed strangely.
"She is the second daughter of the Eldant Empire, Her Highness Tiana Von Eldant."
"Eldant?" Kaizo frowned for a moment, "No way!" His eyes widened in surprise.
In the Princess Sizuan Academy, which was an elementalist training organization, many of the princesses of the original nobles were registered.
This was the result of the royal family and nobles continuing the elementalist bloodline through a marriage of convenience that even lasted for generations.
Sure, there were also exceptions, but, speaking of elementalists, it was normal for them to be noble princesses.
Veilmist, head of a military family, and Neidfrost, with a family history. The land was currently confiscated, but the Victorian Lionstein family also had a royal pedigree.
However, this girl before him was a second princess of the Eldant Empire. He's not even a noble. She was what would be called an actual princess.
(Why is the imperial princess in the academy?)
Daughters born into the Eldant imperial family should be scheduled to attend training as Queen candidates, serving the Five Great Elemental Lords. They will be included in the Queen's training organization, «Divine Ritual Obsession».
After all, Kaizo kept the question in his chest for now, and knelt on the ground with one knee.
"Excuse my rudeness, Your Majesty."
It was not that he had specifically pledged allegiance to the Eldant Empire, but the attitude that had to be taken before nobles were pushed hard by his former contracted spirit.
However, Tiana silently shook her head. "It's okay, we are students from the same academy here. Besides, even though I was called the second princess, I was the Missing Queen, my social status was gone."
"The Missing Queen?" Kaizo asked back and then he remembered.
(So, second princess of the empire!)
He remembers hearing it from rumors.
(If I recall, that girl is the Queen's candidate to serve the Elemental Lord of Fire.)
Four years ago, the Queen of Fire, Monica Lionstein's escape occurred. The Empire fell into chaos for a moment by the wrath of the Fire God Elemental, who knew of his betrayal.
In order to assuage the anger of the Elemental Lord Fire, «Divine Ritual Obsession» tried to support the second Queen, but at that time the second princess of the empire was supposed to be supported as Monica's successor. She was never Queen.
At the time, she stated that she was stepping down from the Queen's candidacy for a reason and her existence was removed from the imperial family.
The reason she refused to become Queen has not been officially announced so far. From then on, the second princess completely disappeared from the middle stage.
(The Missing Queen means this girl?!)
