“Not bad for a half-breed.”
The blue-haired girl who was sitting with her legs crossed muttered arrogantly.
Her hairstyle revealed her forehead and she had two long, slender horns growing from her head.
The girl's eyes were fixed on Adel, who was relentlessly stabbing the Sword Saint.
After hearing her comment, one of the students flattered her.
“But he's still weaker than Ms. Fron. It's ridiculous to even compare a half-demon to Ms. Fron.”
“Haha, that's obvious.”
The girl dismissed the student's flattery as if it wasn't worth her time.
At first glance, her words and actions seemed arrogant.
However, no one dared to criticize her because she had the qualifications to say such things.
She was Fron, the only daughter of the Laurel family, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, who was in charge of ‘Lust’.
“Well, even so, the nature of a half-breed doesn't change.”
Fron said as she watched Adel mercilessly killing the Sword Saint.
“In any case...such a low-level being.”
Adel was splattering blood everywhere.
It was certainly a gruesome sight.
At least, it was unpleasant enough for Fron, a member of the Seven Deadly Sins, to watch.
“Half-breeds are all like that. They're inherently inferior beings.”
Suddenly, Fron stopped speaking.
For some reason, she felt a very sharp gaze coming from afar.
Who dared to look at her with such impure eyes?
With that thought in mind, Fron turned her head.
And her gaze stopped at...
“......”
A woman with a black dragon crest carved on her face, filled with killing intent.
Fron's face hardened as she recalled.
‘If it's a black dragon, it must be a child of the Bares family, but why is she looking at me like that...’
Rene's gaze was so intense that it made Fron uncomfortable.
Fron swallowed nervously as she faced Rene.
‘W, what's with that look...!’
Fron was terrified by Rene's intense gaze.
She wondered if there were any students who would intervene, but the students were all backing away and watching the two of them.
“Even though they're both from the Seven Deadly Sins, they're different. Are they already fighting?”
“I wonder who will win.”
Fron was frustrated by this.
The two of them didn't look away from each other for long.
After all, it was the first time that a member of the Seven Deadly Sins had appeared in the exam.

"Group 33, you pass."
"“Alright!””
Instructor Ares spoke, looking at me with disapproval.
On the other hand, Chris and Kina hugged each other and rejoiced.
Schancie seemed to be trying to manage her expression...
But the slight twitch of her lips betrayed her joy.
Well,
It was only natural, considering we had defeated the Sword Saint, even if it was just a tenth of his power.
I was about to join in the celebratory mood when,
"Pixie Adel."
Instructor Ares called my name in a serious tone.
I turned around, thinking he might be about to offer some praise, but Ares's face was contorted in a grimace.
There couldn't be two people using this alias, so he must be calling me...
Feeling puzzled, I asked Ares,
"What's the matter?"
"Are you really asking because you don't know?"
"Yes, I am."
"I'll be watching you."
Ares turned his back and walked away as if he had said everything he needed to say.
Why did he even call me...
It was baffling, but I decided not to dwell on it too much.
Swish.
I raised my head.
The descendants of the Seven Deadly Sins in the audience.
I observed their reactions.
'Not a bad reaction.'
They were looking at me with curiosity.
Since I hadn't shown them how I defeated the Sword Saint while trapped in the darkness, they might be trying to figure it out.
'But why is she angry...?'
I flinched involuntarily at the sight of Rene, killing intent emanating from her eyes.
Fortunately, it didn't seem like her gaze was directed at me.
Following her line of sight, I unexpectedly saw a familiar face.
A girl with blue hair and distinctive Japanese-style oni horns.
Fron Laurel.
She was one of the descendants of the Seven Deadly Sins.
I remembered her because she was a character I had written about and featured in the story.
But why was she having a power struggle with Rene?
Rene wasn't the type to pick fights with people for no reason.
As I pondered for a moment, my head throbbed, and I pressed my forehead.
'The information I have about the Demon Realm is full of holes. This is a headache.'
The settings I remembered about the Demon Realm.
Let's start with the settings related to the Demon Realm. I knew the names of famous demons, information about items and hidden treasures that could be found in the Demon Realm, and even the settings of powerful demons representing the Demon Realm...
However,
Even that knowledge was fragmented and incomplete.
That's why I knew about Diana, the student who would become the Demon King, and Fron, one of the descendants of the Seven Deadly Sins, but I had no information about Rene.
It's true that my head is full of information about the human world.
'But what good is that?'
However, most of the information I have now is useless.
What good would it do me to know about the protagonist's party?
All I can do is prepare for that time.
At least that information won't be useful until the middle of the story.
"Whew."
I sighed with worry about the future.
And I took a step towards Rene and Fron.
I think it would be better to stop the fight between the two of them for now.
As someone who needs to recruit more powerful people, it's not a good sign for future comrades to be at odds…….
"Miss."
Rene turned her head at my call.
Then her fierce expression gradually softened and returned to her usual blankness.
"You worked hard."

ReplyDeleteI envy your optimism
DeleteI looked back at NU to check once again whether this novel was in the harem genre. But the romance genre tag doesn't even exist, let alone harem, so let's hope for more.
