Maou Gakuin No Futekigousha Chapter 56

Chapter 56

Heading back home my mother is talking to the fan union girls .

They’ve left the more popular streets and the area they are in now is already dark and deserted .

“Isabella-san . ”

My mother turns around and see’s Emilia standing there .

“Good evening Emilia sensei . It’s amazing that the two students from your cla.s.s are in the finals . ”

“Indeed . Thank you . Both of them are my prided students . ”

Emilia smiles but something about the expression gives off a dark feeling .

“Is your home this way Emilia sensei?”

“No . I’m here because the regulations say that the finalist’s swords are kept the day before the finals so I rushed after you . ”

The fan union members seem to be wary of Emilia and whisper amongst themselves

“Was there such a rule……?”

“I don’t know……but……”

“Is that so? I wasn’t aware . Does the tournament committee keep them?”

My mother asks without displaying any cautious behaviour .

“Yes . Its to stop swords being switched . It’s just a formality though . ”

Fumu . So Emilia’s aim is my sword .

Do you intend to alter it or just break it?

“I see . I feel bad asking sensei to do it so I’ll go and hand it to the tournament committee directly . ”

“It’s fine . I don’t mind . I’m going back to the school anyway . ”

“Funnily enough, I’ve left something at the school as well . Should we go together?”

My mother laughs while smiling but Emilia is starting to panic a little .

“It’s a bit strange though . I read through all the tournament rules but having to leave the sword behind wasn’t written down anywhere . It did say though that each person was responsible for managing their sword . ”

My mother’s smile doesn’t break .

Even if she’s not suspicious of Emilia directly she’s not accepting her words either .

Since she investigated about becoming a demon emperor she must be aware of the feud between the royals and the unification faction . She’s also aware that Emilia is in the royal faction .

“Let’s go . I can’t believe I missed that rule . I need to confirm it properly . ”

Emilia’s really confused now .

At first glance, my mother seems like she’s easy to deceive, however, compared to mazoku society human society has a lot more scammers, swindlers and fraud in general .

As such, even if you read a manual on a product you’ve bought you’ll get a headache from the level of detail written .

Humans, in particular, are very noisy and troublesome when it comes to rules and regulations .

It looks like it hasn’t changed after 2000 years either .

No, it might actually be worse .

Even if my mother trusts Emilia she will want to check just in case . Emilia seems to have made light of the common sense of human society .

I guess due to that wall I made there would have been almost no interactions between the humans and the mazoku . Oh well .

“……I’m troubled……”

That said, Emilia grabs the sheath of my sword .

“…………Emilia sensei… . . ?”

“Please give me the sword Isabella-san otherwise you’ll get hurt . ”

My mother pulls the sword from its sheath and backs off .

“Are you okay with that? If you don’t listen to me then you might end up dying together with that sword . ”

The magic formation for Grand Heat Blaze appears on Emilia’s palm but my mother still doesn’t let go of my sword .

“Shall I burn that filthy body that gave birth to that child that defies royalty?”

A large dark red flame that was burning vigorously attacks my mother .

“Mother! Please escape!”

The 8 fan union girls all deploy anti-magic fields at the same time .

For a moment the barriers seemed to block but they were burnt down the next moment .

“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

Wounded by the intense flames the fan union girls collapsed . Though they managed to avoid death thanks to their anti-magic fields they had suffered extreme burns .

“Everyone… . . !”

My mother screams out .

“Why………Emilia sensei? Aren’t they your important students?”

“No . Lowly mixed-race peasants are not my students . They are just leftovers begging for the sc.r.a.ps left in my cla.s.s . ”

Emilia lets out a smile full of dark feelings .

“Will you hand me that sword now?”

“…… . . Why……?”

“Why? Please don’t say such a shameless thing . ” Emilia says in an upright and innocent tone .

“My brother Kurt Roodwell is a swordsman representing the royal faction . More than anyone, he had a n.o.ble power and a n.o.ble heart but that unforgivable cowardly great criminal Arnos VoldiG.o.d broke that . I cant silently allow that man to brazenly stand on the final stage . ”

“Arnos-chan fought fairly! Your older brother won’t be pleased even if you do something like this!”

Emilia scowls at my mother in anger .

“Fighting fairly are words only allowed by the royals . There is nothing honourable in the power of Arnos VoldiG.o.d . No matter how strong he is, he is still a feeble coward of low birth . Such contemptible powers cannot be allowed to defeat royalty . ”

“………Don’t you find it strange that you intend to break Arnos-chans sword so he can’t appear in the finals? If you say royalty are honourable and n.o.ble then do the right thing and act like it!”

“You’re wrong Isabella-san . The royals don’t have to do the right thing because anything the royals do is always the right thing . Your arrogant words of doing the right thing is a direct criticism of the royals!!”

appears in Emilia’s hand again .

Anti-magic appeared again to counter it .

“…… . Mother…… . please run away…… . ”

The 8 badly burnt fan union girls stood up again .

“Everyone, don’t . ”

“If we relax the anti-magic everyone will be burnt again . Please run as far away as possible . Arnos-sama will surely come . ”

“But……… . . ! If you are all burnt by that flame you will all die! ………… . You’re all already badly burnt………!!”

Emilia intensifies the flame .

was already twice the size of the last one and it was getting bigger .

The fan unions magic cannot prevent it . It’s hopeless against the power difference but they all laughed .

“It’s fiiiiine! There’s eight of us but only one over there . ”

“Fumu . I held back a little last time . ”

“Oi! Are you imitating Arnos-sama!?”

“By imitating Arnos-sama I can borrow one one-millionth of his power! That’s fan union magic!”

“Was there such a magic!?”

“If we can borrow one one-millionth then this will be easy!”

Despite the crisis in front of them, they are fooling around trying to calm my mother’s anxiety .

“Please hurry up and go mother . If mother is here then we cant get serious!”

My mother nodded immediately .

“I’ll call for help! Please wait!”

My mothers starts to run while carrying my sword .

“As usual I don’t know what any of you are thinking . Even doing this won’t buy you any extra time . No honour, no power no wisdom . There’s a word for all of you . Stupid . ”

In Emilia’s other hand another appears .

“…… . . It’s not useless…… . ”

“…… . It’s not stupid……”

They say it like they are persuading themselves as well .

“……I’ll protect……the important Arnos-sama… . . ”

“… . . Protect…… . !!”

“Everyone, let’s go!!”

The fan union match their magic power together and deploy their anti-magic but the from Emilia’s right-hand burns it away instantly .

All eight people had spread out and dodged the flames . They quickly used Construction Creation and created spears before attacking Emilia all together, however, Emilia exploded the in her left hand releasing flames in all directions .

The fan union was surrounded by flames and blown away .

“… . . Kyaaaaaa…… . . !!”

“Like I said, you can’t buy any time by doing this . ”

My mothers figure is still reflected in Emilia’s eyes .

Another appears in her hand .

If she releases it my mother has no way of dodging it .

At that time I heard a faint melody .

“…… . You are under and I am above…… ♪”

Singing . The fan union girls lying on the ground are singing .

“…… . Shuu, shushushu, Instant death……♪ …… . . Fuuhaa…… . . ♪”

They unsteadily start to get up but there’s no power to resist . If Emilia ignored them it would be over .

“… . . You are under and I am above……♪”

Emilia’s face distorts and she says in a low voice .

“Would you please stop?”

Another fan union girl gets up .

“…… . La lalaala easy victory♪ ……… . Uuuahaaaa♪”

Emila shouts out like she can’t bear it .

“Don’t you understand what the word stop means!!”

Emilia’s burns one of the fan union girls but she continues singing whilst on fire .

“… . . The n.o.ble Arnos-sama’s gift~…… . . ♪”

They are doing anything to attract the attention of Emilia .

“………Attentive in bed . The prey dances~…… . ♪”

The remaining seven people rush Emilia empty-handed .

“…… . . Arnos-sama will put it♪ ……… . Get filled with the best magic power♪”

“Stop it!! Stop it right now!!”

Another girl burns but still the singing continues .

“…… . . Strong m-a-n in one shot~♪”

Another girl collapsed . If they are singing they are burnt but still, they continue .

“……Geeeet filled with♪ …… . . geeeet filled with♪ ……… . geeeet filled with♪”

Gasps for breath and a weak melody sounds .

“…… . You are under and I am above… . . ♪”

“You are all underneath!! You are all under the royals!! Stop this stupid song!! It’s royal criticism!!”

Emilia furiously burns the fan union girls .

“……… . Byuu, dobyuuu, instant kill♪ ………fuu ahaaa♪”

One by one the girls fall to the ground .

“……You are under and I am above……♪”

Two people are left .

“………Ahh, Aaahah relief♪ …… . Uuahaaaa♪”

One falls, another and the last person falls .

“… . . Hey, struggle…… . . receive the…… . n.o.ble gift……”

Still, she sings . A painful voice comes out from the flames .

“Making me go through this extra trouble……!”

Emilia clicked her tongue .

“But like I said it was useless after all . ”

Emila cast Flight and rises into the sky . Scanning around she quickly caught sight of my mother .

“… . Die…… . . !”

burnt violently in her hand and then shot towards my mother in an instant .

The next second a huge pillar of flame shot up into the sky .

“……Fufu, aha, ahahahahah!”

Emilia descends to the ground with a laugh .

“Haa . I finally feel refreshed . Should I send her corpse to that in inept person?”

She begins walking then begins to skip .

“Fumu . You’re in a good mood . Did something good happen?”

She stopped moving and turned around .

“…… . Arnos-chan… . . ”

I moved to my mothers side using Transfer and became her shield .

“Mother, are you injured?”

“I’m fine . ”

My mother hides her hands behind her back .

They are slightly burnt .

Because I arrived right at the last minute I wasn’t able to protect her .

I healed her using Healing and turned to my teacher .

“Hey Emilia . ”

I take step forward .

Despite the fact we are quite far away from each other Emilia steps back like she’s been struck .

“I’m a tolerant person . I can’t remember a single time I ever got angry in my past life . Fools used to buzz around me all the time but if they changed their att.i.tude I forgave them . I thought that it was narrow-minded to get angry over such small things . ”

I stare straight at Emilia . I wonder what type of face I have right now? I can’t even imagine it .

“The thing is I’m sure that was a mistake now . ”

I take another step forward .

My voice sounded much colder than I would have thought .

“Emilia . You, I do not forgive . ”
