When I returned to my seat Emilia said
“Candidates please stand up.”
All the students who had previously raised their hands stood up.
5 people including me. At a quick glance none of them particularity interested me but upon closer inspection one of the girls caught my eye. A blonde twin tail with blue eyes.
She looks strong minded with good features and a good stature. She’s actually similar to Misha but most importantly their magical wavelengths are similar.
“Well then, before you start grouping up, students who are running as team leaders please introduce yourselves. We’ll start with………Sasha-san.”
The twin tail from earlier huh. She smiles with a determined expression.
“I’m from the Necron family and a direct descendant of one of the original 7 demon emperors Aivis Necron. I’m Sahsa Necron the witch of ruin. Pleased to make your acquaintance.”
She grips the edge of her skirt and bows elegantly.
Though Misha appears to only be absentmindedly listening to Sasha her eyes are locked on her.
“When she says Necron?”
“…..Older sister……”
I see. The older sister she doesn’t know if she’s on good terms with or not.
Sasha’s in black clothes so she’s a pureblood while Misha is in white.
That means.
“Different mothers?”
When I asked Misha shook he head.
“………Same parents……..”
“Then aren’t you a pureblood as well Misha?”
“There are other reasons apart from pedigree for someone to be in white clothes.”
“What?”
Misha is silent for a moment before speaking.
“…….My family decided it……..”
“Your family?”
“The Necron family.”
Fumu. What kind of circumstances do you have to treat only one of your daughters as royalty?
Pedigree is a very important thing in this era. It’s strange.
It’s bothering me now.
“Arnos-kun. It’s your turn.”
While talking to Misha the others have done their introduction and it’s my turn now.
Whatever, I guess I’ll hear about it in due course.
First off let’s introduce myself. I turn towards the students and declare in a dignified manner
“I’m the Demon King of Tyranny Arnos Voldigod. I’ll tell you all right now that the name of the demon king you believe in is wrong. The real name is Arnos Voldigod. Not that any of you will believe me. I don’t blame you though. In time, you will understand. Pleased to meet you.”
The classroom falls silent at my self-introduction. Liorg told me that to call myself the founder was disrespectful. Now I’ve told them that the name is wrong as well.
Nobody looks directly at me but keeps sneaking glances and whispering about what’s this inept person saying.
Even Emilia who is in a position to tell me off ignored it and carried on talking. Was it because of what I did a while back? (1)
“Okay, your self-introductions have ended. All students who didn’t run please go to the team leader who you prefer. You don’t know each other yet so don’t mind first impressions. There are no number restrictions for the teams so don’t worry about being too large.”
The students stand up at her words and move to the people they like.
“It’s possible to change groups at any time, however, it’s up to the team leader to accept a new member or not. Also, if a team leader loses all their members they will lose their position.”
Seems like another mechanism to test the ability of those that would lead.
“Hey, oi. What will you do?”
“It’s got to be Sasha-sama after all.”
“It seems so. The witch of ruin. Another hopeful in the chaos generation. Some people are saying that she’s the founder reincarnated.”
“Yeah, I’d heard that too. The owner of huge magic power and powerful magic.”
Fumu. That girl Sasha is also one of the chaos generation?
Whatever. The founder is me though she does seem to have a lot of magic power like rumoured.
On that token evidence, most of the students move to Sasha.
Misha who was sitting next to me stands up. For a moment she looks at Sasha then looks at me with her usual deadpan expression.
“If you want to go to your older sister, you may go.”
*Furufuru* Misha shakes her head.
“………Arnos’ group is good…….”
“Really?”
“……..Nn……”
“I’m saved.”
Misha looks a little bit shy and says
“…….Because we’re friends……”
“That’s right.”
It seems Misha is my only member though we are still qualified as a group. (2)
What’s happened to the others? I could just use magic to gather and compel more members but wheres the fun in that?
While thinking along those lines a blonde girl pushes through the crowds.
It’s Sasha.
“Arnos Voldigod was it? Nice to meet you.” (3)
“Aah.”
She gazed at Misha for a moment.
