I am Gilgamesh, the King of Heroes.

That message was sent three minutes ago.

"Please take good care of Kiana for me—"

Siegfried Kaslana.

“…What an unreliable father.” Jill deleted the message, turned off her phone screen, and looked towards the classroom.

Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Devil Teacher?

“Ouch…it hurts…”

Kiana rubbed her shoulder. She had been thrown to the floor by Gil several times today. She wasn't made of steel, and it still hurt when she got hurt.

"Not gentle at all! That devilish teacher!" Kiana complained angrily, waving her hands.

"Teacher is doing this for your own good." Mei checked Kiana's back. "There were no bruises or anything. Teacher was very careful with her strength."

"But it's definitely going to hurt..." Kiana pouted, looking as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"You," Mei said with a doting expression, "I'll make your favorite fried chicken for dinner tonight."

"I knew Mei was the best!"

"However, a teacher will come to tutor you in the evening, so you should be mentally prepared. You failed all four subjects in the last exam, and Teacher Welt was also very troubled by it," Mei said to Kiana in a somewhat helpless tone.

"...Um...Mei, could you..." Kiana immediately put on an expression like a puppy trying to please its master, attempting to gain Mei's sympathy and escape from the hell called "tutoring".

"No, Kiana, how can you become the strongest Valkyrie if you can't even pass the exam? Besides, Gilgamesh said that you have to become a B-rank Valkyrie before you can challenge him again, okay?" Mei helped Kiana straighten her clothes. "Alright, go play some games with Bronya for a while, I'll go cook."

"it is good!"

……

"Regarding the previous lessons..." At this moment, on the other side, Gil looked at Ren and Kusanagi, "You two should really catch up on your studies. After all, I'm not the one grading the exams; I'm only responsible for setting the questions."

Then Kusanagi and Ren exchanged glances and nodded.

Estelle has recently regained all her original power and seems to be sorting out her memories and reorganizing her power. Although Jill has essentially obtained the complete Demon Slayer, she is unable to use it.

However, this does not mean that Jill's abilities have weakened.

Moreover, there is no one in this world who can threaten him. Even those known as "Herrschers" cannot fight Gil and can only be suppressed.

Jill picked up the book. "Okay, then let's get straight to the point and start the tutoring... um..."

Jill looked at the five books in front of her—biology, geography, physics, chemistry, and history—and fell into deep thought.

It seems... like they might be difficult to teach...

Jill looked at the half-baked teacher who hadn't learned anything about these things, and the high school student who had only learned a little bit, and fell silent.

Well then, we'll have to start from the beginning.

So Jill reached out and picked up the geography book. "Come on, let's start with this."

I refuse to believe I can't properly teach these two!

So, Gil casually redeemed the Language Proficiency skill from the template and gave it to Kusanagi, and then began his teaching.

"First, let's talk about Earth..."

……

At this moment, in the office.

Theresa is working on documents.

Don't let the fact that our ruthless, shrewd capitalist Theresa Apocalypse enjoys slacking off and spending her days reading comics in the office fool you; when it comes to serious work, she takes it very seriously.

Although she's a bit silly and occasionally acts cute and silly, St. Freya Academy, or rather the entire Far East Branch, has reached its current scale not only because of Jill and the staff, but also because of Theresa's efforts.

"Himeko, how is the Hyperion?"

“No problem. The idea that Jill proposed last time was adopted by the research department and then applied to it. The Hyperion is now more powerful than before, and it is equipped with some special weapons... However, are you sure that what you are doing is okay?” Himeko and Theresa were reviewing documents, but Himeko had been dragged along by Theresa to help.

“Or rather, do you have a better candidate than him?” Theresa glanced at Himeko. “Your health is obviously not very good, isn’t it? Even if he helped you improve your health, it’s still not very good. So he’s the best candidate for this mission.”

"He just came back from a mission, right?" Himeko asked in a strange tone. "Do you believe he'll jump up and rebel if you exploit your employees like this? And let me tell you, I remember the first time I went on a mission, he was the captain and he was fighting hundreds of Honkai Beasts all by himself. While fighting, he was smiling at us and saying things like, 'You guys go ahead, I'll come over after I'm done...' Theresa, it seems like you can't beat him."

"Who can beat that monster! I've known for fourteen years that I'm no match for him!" Theresa exploded. "That guy's all bark and no bite. If you go and beg him, he'll definitely agree!"

Himeko then looked at Theresa with an "I see" expression, which made Theresa's face turn bright red instantly.

"No wonder he always accepts your tasks; did you have to beg and plead with him to do it...?"

"No way! No way!" Theresa retorted loudly, "There were definitely scams and tricks involved!"

Himeko was speechless, and finally slapped her forehead, "I can't even tell who the real branch leader of the Far East Branch is anymore."

"Long-winded!"

……

As evening fell, Kiana lazily slumped onto the table after finishing her dinner.

Bronya was playing a game. As the second-ranked student in her grade, she naturally didn't need tutoring (the first-ranked student was Fu Hua), while Mei was the third-ranked student in her grade.

As the only student in the entire grade to fail three exams, Kiana Kaslana was fortunate enough to be assigned a tutor by Headmistress Theresa Apocalypse.

Now, the hands have moved to the 7:00 position.

The dormitory doorbell rang on time. Although somewhat reluctant, Kiana resolutely chose to open the dormitory door in order to become a Valkyrie.

"I'm here to tutor you."

The blond youth standing outside the door saw Kiana open the door and raised the geography book in his hand.

"bump!"

Kiana slammed the door shut, her face showing a look of utter disbelief.

"What's wrong, Kiana? Didn't the teacher arrive?" Mei looked at Kiana strangely.

"...Mei, I think I opened this door the wrong way," Kiana said firmly. "The tutor is that devilish teacher. I must be dreaming."

Mei gave a strange look. "Devil Teacher?"

"In short, I must be doing something wrong! Let me check again!"

Kiana, skeptical, opened the door and saw Gil with a slightly gloomy expression.

"Hmph hmph hmph... Kiana-kun..."

Gilgamesh gripped the book tightly. "Have you gotten arrogant, or have I, Gilgamesh, lost my temper?"

Chapter Ninety-Eight: On Gilles's Troubled Students.

"Huh!?" Kiana instantly sensed intense malice.

"I'm sorry, Gil, I'm leaving Kiana's tutoring in your care." Mei, like a parent, pulled Kiana behind her and apologized to Gil on Kiana's behalf.

"...Never mind, I'm not angry."

Jill sighed, "Mei, you should be the one who spoils her too much. She's already a spoiled child by her father."

"What do you mean I was spoiled by my dad! He just told me my name and then disappeared! I can't remember anything before I was nine years old!"

Kiana spoke to Gil in a protesting tone.

Jill paused, wondering if he couldn't remember anything from before he was nine years old.

To be honest, I forgot about one possibility.

Gil watched Kiana with great interest. This also explained why Gil's rune inscription "GEBO" (Blessing) had disappeared.

But...

"Hurry up and prepare your books! If you don't study well today, you're not allowed to sleep!"

"If you're so capable, then stay up all night with me!"

"Come on! I once died from overwork after working a month of overtime, crawled back from the underworld, and then continued working overtime. Are you afraid of me?!"

Jill pinched Kiana's cheeks, pulling them from side to side, "If you don't study well, I'll tell Theresa I absolutely won't tell you where Siegfried is!"

"You are the devil!"

"Think what you want, but bring the books, and the history book over there too, hurry up! You're not allowed to sleep until you've memorized everything I've taught you tonight!" Jill said, picking up the book in her hand and gently tapping Kiana's head.

"The devil! You are the devil!"

"Yes, I don't mind being called that, just memorize the book you're holding!"

……

After making a ruckus for a while, Kiana was violently suppressed by Gil, and she was reciting her lessons with the bump on her head from Gil's punch.

Although the history of Honkai is slightly different from the world history of Type-Moon that Jill read, as well as the world history of the Little Garden, there are not many differences in general.

When did the Black Death reach its peak in Europe?

"Yes...yes..." Kiana paused for a moment, then quickly glanced in a certain direction.

Gil, who had noticed this little action, made no attempt to stop her, but instead waited for Kiana's reply.

“1348,” Kiana replied.

"How long did it last?"

"Three years."

"What were the consequences, and what was the most serious consequence of this incident?"

"..." Kiana looked at the small board that Bronya was holding up behind Gil, and the long string of words on it, and looked bewildered.

"It caused the deaths of nearly 30 million people. Then, because the range of this [Honkai energy] was too wide, a large number of Honkai Beasts appeared throughout Europe. At that time, [Schicksal] sent a large number of troops and Valkyries to clear them out..." Jill closed the book in her hand. "Forget it, forcing you to study is no different from killing you if you're an idiot like you... Well, never mind, let's learn in a different way."

Jill was somewhat exasperated by Kiana's learning ability. Rather than saying the girl was stupid, it was more accurate to say that she simply didn't put her heart into learning.

“You haven’t memorized any of this at all. Bronya has been reminding you from behind the scenes…” Jill rubbed her temples and sighed, “You’re just fooling yourself.”

"You devilish teacher, do you have eyes in the back of your head?!" Kiana exclaimed in horror.

“...I can hear Bronya’s breathing. My senses are stronger than you think. I can also feel Mei making black tea in the kitchen, and you holding a cheat sheet under the table... There’s also the headmaster who’s about to come in and is already ringing the doorbell, and Himeko is standing next to him.”
