Maou Gakuin No Futekigousha Chapter 190.1

Chapter 190.1

U-Umm D-Dad? Misa asked, as if trying to catch a glimpse of s.h.i.+ns face.

It-Its not what you think. I was just feeling a little too shy to go all out, so Lay-san helped me relax. Its not like we werent taking this cla.s.s seriously or any (Misa)

Misa. s.h.i.+n said in an indifferent tone.

We are in the middle of a cla.s.s. I am not here as your father. I do not appreciate you mixing public and personal affairs. (s.h.i.+n)

I Im sorry. (Misa)

Misa turned her face down in apology.

s.h.i.+n stepped back to move away from Lay.

Speaking of which, Lay Grandsley. Where were you and what were you doing three nights ago? (s.h.i.+n)

What do you mean? Lay asked back without dropping his smile.

Nothing. There is no particular meaning to my question. It is simply that (s.h.i.+n)

s.h.i.+n paused and turned his face to Lay.

Three nights ago, my daughter came home later than usual. (s.h.i.+n)

His eyes were filled with chillingly cold murderous intent.

I will therefore ask you once again. Where were and what were you doing three nights ago? (s.h.i.+n)

s.h.i.+n channeled his magic power into his left hand, causing the Pillage Blade to glow mysteriously.

He was clearly mixing public and private business.

D-Dad! I told you I was late that time because I was at Ellens house! And she told you the same, didnt she?! (Misa)

s.h.i.+n immediately replied to Misas justification.

That day, she had a rehearsal with the rest of the Demon Kings Choir. Her schedule was to last until sunset. However, My Lord was on official business that same day until late at night. (s.h.i.+n)

Umm And what is your point? (Misa)

From my perspective, the choir girls, especially Ellen, wish to set their own loyalty as an example. It is inconceivable to me that a loyal subject of Ellens caliber would leave the castle before My Lord. (s.h.i.+n)

It took one loyal subject to recognize another.

s.h.i.+n could probably tell the extent of their loyalty from watching the Fan Union girls working for the Demon King as his choir girls on a daily basis.

In other words, what he was thinking was that Ellen mustve lied to cover for Misa and gone along with her excuse.

E Even she can slip up once in a while (Misa)

Misa smiled nervously, as if she were in trouble.

To s.h.i.+n, that was a lousy excuse.

Misa, you are not the one I am interrogating right now. This is going to be dangerous, so stand back. (s.h.i.+n)

B-But Dad, um, please dont do anything horrible to Lay-sa (Misa)

Do not address me as your father here. (s.h.i.+n)

Yes, Sir. (Misa)

Misa looked troubled, but reluctantly complied.

When she looked at Lay with concern, he responded with a refres.h.i.+ng smile.

As if to tell her not to worry.

How about you answer my question now, Lay Grandsley? (s.h.i.+n)

Talk is cheap. (Lay)

Lay drew a magic circle with one hand.

A divine light gathered there, then he summoned and grabbed the Sword of Three Races with his right hand.

I will answer your question with this sword. (Lay)

I shall take you up on it. However, if I detect even a hint of wickedness in your swordsmans.h.i.+p, I will immediately chop you to pieces. (s.h.i.+n)

Lay and s.h.i.+n faced each other.

Misa watched the two of them with discomfort.

U-Umm, Lay-san? Erm That sword is the Sword of Three Races, right? Isnt that the sword meant to destroy the Demon King? And you too, Dad. What are you planning to steal from him with the Pillage Blade? Umm Are you sure you two dont need to calm down? (Misa)

However, they both remained silent as each of them was now focused on the others sword and their own.

Ah Ahaha W What should I do now? (Misa)

Nothing. Theres no need to worry. (Anos)

Misa turned around, startled.

She looked surprised to see me there without noticing.

No need? What do you mean, Anosh-kun? (Misa)

s.h.i.+n was a man devoid of love. But now that he has you as his daughter, he was able to develop something called parental love for the first time. And because he never knew what love was, he doesnt know how to suppress this new feeling either. (Anos)

Misa looked as if she didnt understand a thing of what I just said.

Simply put, he doesnt know how to stop being a doting father. I never thought s.h.i.+n, who never knew love, would turn out like this. This is most amusing. (Anos)

U-Umm But the swords they are holding right now are nothing amusing at all, though (Misa)

This is a path every parent with a daughter has to take. Lay must challenge him with all his sincerity, and earn the right to be with you. That being said, s.h.i.+n is an awkward man. Words alone arent enough for them to understand each other. Since Lay realizes that, hes trying to have a conversation with him through swords. (Anos)

A conversation through swords? (Misa)

When youre as talented as those two, its easy to imagine how they can a.s.sess each others feelings by crossing swords. (Anos)

Is that how it is? (Misa)

Misa glanced at both of them, as if she was still skeptical about it.

The other students noticed that Lay and s.h.i.+n were about to begin their sparring match, and turned their attention to them.

H-Hey That demon sword s.h.i.+n-sensei is holding, I think it might be crazy dangerous and I feel like it has an unusual magic power in it (Student boy A)

And look at what Lay-kun pulled out, its the Sword of Three Races! Isnt that the holy sword that was crafted to destroy the Demon King?! (Student girl A)

Hold on Hold on Does this mean that this is gonna be a one-on-one battle between the Hero Kanon and the Demon Kings right hand s.h.i.+n Reglia?! (Student boy A)

Maybe they still have a score to settle from two thousand years ago. And s.h.i.+n-sensei is using this cla.s.s as an excuse to purge Lay (Student boy B)

If he werent, he wouldnt have pulled out that awesome-looking sword, and Lau wouldnt have brought out Evansmana, right? (Student boy C)

The students gulped as they carefully moved away from the two swordsmen.

They didnt want to be caught in their conflict and become collateral damage.

[Khahaha! Hey everyone, forget the training and look at these two! Looks like s.h.i.+n-sensei will now put into practice what he first mentioned. This oughta be more instructive than doing warmups. (Eldmed)

What he first mentioned? Are you referring to what he said about dying? (Student boy A)

Exactly. Death was commonplace two thousand years ago, and overcoming it was also a regular thing. Which means, you cant reach that state of mind unless you experience death yourselves! How much does it take for you to die? Whether you know this or not can make a world of difference! (Eldmed)

Eldmed hit the ground with his cane.

Also, theres another benefit to experiencing death. And thats . Its the sort of spell that operates at the source. By becoming conscious of your death, you detach yourself from your physical body and can perceive your own source. And then, youll be able to feel firsthand the effect of the spell formula! (Eldmed)

Eldmed cackled with a hoa.r.s.e voice.

Now thats s.h.i.+n Reglia for you. Making you experience death promptly so you can become conscious of your own sources to teach the most basic of the basics in battle Such a rough yet subtle teaching method! Hes not the Demon Kings right-hand man for nothing! (Eldmed)

The Conflagration King pointed his cane at them two, and spoke in a low voice.

Look, theyre starting. (Eldmed)

Lay kicked off the ground.

But s.h.i.+n was already closing in on him, as if he had foreseen his move.

Hmph! (Lay)

The Sword of Three Races and the Pillage Blade collided straight away.

The aftershock of their magic power hit their surroundings, with the wind pressure ruffling the students hair and uniforms.

The Sword of Three Races possessed the greater magic power, but s.h.i.+ns skill was slightly superior.

The two of them were locked in a fierce duel, and they glared at each other.

We do this in three rounds? (Lay)

Very well. (s.h.i.+n)

When s.h.i.+n replied, a faint light covered their surroundings.

This was the spell.

However, this wasnt for converting feelings into magic power.

This was to make it easier for them to communicate their feelings to the other through their swords.
