The Academy’s Weakest Became A Demon-Limited Hunter
Chapter Summary
The meteor shower that had been streaking across the night sky suddenly changed its trajectory toward the ground, significantly slowing its descent. Surely, if she arrived at the Märchen Academy’s reunion now, she would have her husband all to herself. With a surge of energy, Dark Kaya flew straight toward Isaac, Dorothy, Luce, and Alice.
It was chilly.
The cat familiars, Ella and Cheshire, disappeared, and from the direction of Düpfendorf, I felt an overwhelming mana.
“So… Isaac’s first love is me…”“Amy, stop.
”I slammed the table and stood up as I spoke, “Stop talking about that.
”“Huh?
”I pressed my index finger to my lips and leaned toward Amy, speaking urgently.
At my sudden reaction, my classmates at the table looked puzzled.
I ignored them and turned my head.
This is crazy, she’s already…?
Before I knew it, a dazzling meteor shower had appeared, creating a beautiful spectacle across the sky.
In the distance, the legendary Thunderbird, cloaked in purple lightning, surged forward at an astonishing speed.
What’s with this quick action?
A chilling mana spread widely and simultaneously, prickling my skin.
Surely, many people were witnessing this overwhelming mana phenomenon unfolding in the sky.
“What is that?
”“A meteor…?
”I could hear my classmates whispering.
Cold sweat trickled down my cheek.
My wives are coming.
Whoosh!
The meteor shower that had been streaking across the night sky suddenly changed its trajectory toward the ground, significantly slowing its descent.
The colorful starlight mana surrounding the meteors scattered in all directions.
At the center, a beautiful woman with light purple hair gently landed nearby, adjusting the witch’s hat on her head.
Dorothy Heartnova.
Her starlit eyes glowed mysteriously beneath the brim of her witch’s hat.
Boom!!
Almost simultaneously.
A black thunderbird streaked across the sky, leaving behind trails of lightning, and a purple bolt struck the ground beside Dorothy.
At the spot where the lightning struck.
A woman, her rose-gold hair fluttering, emanated an electrifying aura.
She glared at me with cold aquamarine eyes.
Luce Eltania.
A chilling murderous intent flickered across her composed face.
…They actually came.
It was already too late.
My classmates began whispering in amazement at the sudden appearance of Dorothy and Luce, the living legends of Märchen Academy.
But I couldn’t pay attention to their voices.
“President…”Dorothy looked at me with a meaningful gaze.
“…”Luce had a look in her eyes that suggested she wouldn’t be satisfied until she tore someone apart on the spot.
It would have been better if that gaze was directed at me.
Unfortunately, the target was Amy.
“Wow, it’s Isaac’s wives…”Amy, this idiot, must be so drunk that she completely lost her sense of awareness.
“I overlooked something,” Luce spoke.
“That pests can also cling to Isaac.
”Isn’t calling her a pest a bit too much…?
“Luce, I think there’s some kind of misunderstanding…”There was no way I couldn’t understand what kind of misunderstanding my wives had.
I approached Dorothy and Luce with my usual gentle smile.
“Isaac.
”I stopped in my tracks as Luce approached and closed the distance, as if she had been expecting this.
Soon, she was standing right in front of me, looking up at me intently.
Her face was as graceful as ever.
Luce spoke firmly, “Kiss me.
”“What?
”Suddenly?
“Here…?
”She wants me to kiss her in this crowd?
“Kiss me and prove your innocence.
”Why is she acting so serious about this?
Anyway, it seemed like Luce had come up with her own way to proudly declare, “Isaac is my man.
”Is she thinking that kissing her in front of my first love would be difficult for me…?
I read Luce’s intentions and understood them.
How did she even come to this conclusion?
What kind of thought process is this?
Even if Amy really was my first love, Luce didn’t seem to care.
She was determined to show off our love so that Amy wouldn’t dare to get any closer.
[Raiding the scene of my master’s affair!
]Suddenly, from behind Luce, a small killer whale familiar, Bello, popped out.
Bello raised his fin boldly and shouted.
[At this very moment!
The valiant killer whale detective, Bello, appears!
I’ve also secured evidence of Isaac’s affair compl…!
]Smack!
[Kyahh!
]“Shut up.
”[Bello, shocked!
No violence!
No violence!
]After getting flicked on the forehead by Luce, Bello spun in the air and fiercely protested.
I’m going crazy.
My classmates sent me intrigued glances.
Especially Ciel Carnedas, her eyes were shining so brightly it was almost blinding.
What’s up with her now?
Ciel’s sparkling gaze left me baffled.
Why is she so unnecessarily interested in my love life?
“They said it’s an affair!
Isaac, are we having an affair?
”Amy giggled in a babyish tone, completely failing to grasp the situation.
Meanwhile, Ian had fainted.
Wake up, Ian!
Go deal with your girlfriend!
This won’t do.
I need to get out of here quickly…“President.
”A voice, usually filled with cheer, now refined and controlled, followed.
I turned my head toward the owner of the voice, Dorothy.
Dorothy glanced at Amy with drowsy eyes, then, like Luce, stepped closer to me.
“Senior?
”Dorothy cupped her hand around her mouth and whispered into my ear, “Let’s get out of here first and talk somewhere else.
”I felt like giving applause to my ever-understanding goddess.
“Of course.
Let’s get out of here and talk…”“But seriously.
”“Hmm?
”Dorothy narrowed her eyes and gave me a questioning look.
“Is she really your first love?
Not me?
”“…”“You are… my first.
”Dorothy gave me a wistful look as if she would be really hurt if that were true.
As if that could be true… Of course not.
Amy?
She was just someone I felt attached to because she was the heroine of .
From the very beginning, my love for Dorothy and Luce had never wavered.
“It seems like there’s a misunderstanding, so let’s talk somewhere else.
Dorothy, if Ella said something weird, just ignore it.
I’ll explain everything….
”At that moment.
I started sensing a familiar mana behind me.
It had to be the person Cheshire had called.
Unlike Dorothy or Luce, the approaching presence wasn’t openly releasing their mana, which was why I was slow to detect it.
“Isn’t that Alice?
”“The Former Student Council President?
”“It’s Senior Alice…”I heard my classmates murmuring.
Dorothy, Luce, and I all turned our heads at once.
A beautiful woman approached me, her silky light golden hair flowing elegantly.
It had been a while since I last saw another one of my fiancés.
One of the strongest figures who stood on equal footing with Dorothy at Märchen Academy.
Alice Carroll.
She approached me with a relaxed smile.
Smooch.
“…!
”Suddenly.
She cupped my cheeks with both hands, lifted herself onto her toes, and kissed my lips.
Smack.
Slurp.
Alice’s tongue slipped between my lips.
Caught off guard, our tongues entwined, and the warm sensation of our mingling saliva spread between us.
Flustered, I took a step back, but Alice only stepped forward, deepening the kiss even more.
It was a bold kiss, seemingly intentional as if she wanted to put on a show for those around us.
“W-wait…!
Alice, hey!
”A bewildered Dorothy tried to stop Alice.
My vision was soon filled with my classmates’ shocked expressions.
I could hear their exclamations and murmurs all at once.
I could also feel a chilling bloodlust nearby.
A battle could break out at any moment, and it wouldn’t be surprising.
All of this had happened in the blink of an eye.
Just as I was about to push Alice away—Smooch.
As if to enchant me.
With a final, sticky kiss that fully sealed our lips together before slowly parting, Alice pulled away first.
“Alice…”“It’s been a while, Darling.
”Alice gazed into my eyes with a sultry smile.
“I’m back.
”The ever-beautiful face of Alice filled my vision.
*** “Hmm hmm hmm~”A woman with light green hair, Kaya Astrea, hummed a tune as she soared through the wind.
The anticipation of meeting her future husband, Isaac, filled her with excitement.
Surely, if she arrived at the Märchen Academy’s reunion now, she would have her husband all to herself.
With powerful figures like Dorothy and Alice, and a fierce rival like Luce around, monopolizing Isaac would be difficult.
So there was no way she could let this golden opportunity slip by.
At least for today, Isaac will be mine alone…!
The long-awaited moment.
She would finally have Isaac all to herself.
“Isaac, I can finally see you—huh?
”As she neared the reunion venue, Kaya abruptly halted mid-flight.
Her eyes widened in shock.
The wife who was supposed to be in the Heart Kingdom, Alice… was kissing Isaac.
And beside her, Dorothy was shouting something while Luce radiated a murderous aura.
“Why…?
”Why…?
Why are THEY here…?
A shadow fell over Kaya’s face.
She had been caught off guard.
She had foolishly believed that she could shake off those cunning women and have Isaac all to herself.
Why…!?
“Ugh…!
”As her swelling anticipation burst like a balloon pricked by a needle, Kaya let out a stifled whimper, close to sobbing.
Kaya retreated into the farthest corner of her mind as if trying to escape.
Swoosh.
Her body lost strength all at once, and her upper body slumped forward.
For a moment, Kaya nearly lost consciousness, but then her Dark persona surfaced and saved her.
“Haa… What are you doing?
”The Dark Kaya frowned as she looked down at her own body, her crimson-stained eyes filled with displeasure.
Her original self had suddenly withdrawn deep into the recesses of her mind and cowered there, leaving Dark Kaya completely bewildered.
“We’re all Isaac’s wives anyway.
Equal to each other.
And you, haven’t you been gaining confidence through your training lately?
”[I guess… but…]The hidden Kaya spoke inside Dark Kaya’s mind, her voice weak and lacking confidence.
Dark Kaya scratched her head before letting out a small chuckle.
She spoke to her inner self as if soothing a child.
“Aww, our little Kaya lost her confidence?
But you were so excited, thinking you could have Isaac all to yourself today.
”[Help me…]“Yeah, yeah, that’s how it should be.
Listen carefully.
Tonight, we will have Isaac.
”Dark Kaya smirked and licked her lips.
Her blood-red eyes gleamed vividly under the moonlight.
She gathered her mana.
Whoosh!!
With a surge of energy, Dark Kaya flew straight toward Isaac, Dorothy, Luce, and Alice.
