Crossover Anime: How Did I Become Iruma-kun?

"How interesting, they dared to launch a surprise attack even knowing who I am~"

A mocking smile appeared on Iruma's lips as he restored time to normal, casually raising his hand to pinch the back of the other's neck, a gesture that seemed to determine fate.

“Huh?!!!!”

Nova, whose neck was being gripped, stared wide-eyed, not even realizing when the other person had made their move. In a flash, everything went black before he was captured.

"Kid, state your name~" Iruma's eyes were playful, his golden dragon eyes filled with a sense of oppression.

The young boy from the Polygonian tribe in front of me had taut and strong muscles all over his body, which was obviously the result of long-term training.

Her long hair, which was gold on the outside and black on the inside, was also quite peculiar. Her eyebrows, which resembled an inverted "V," were furrowed, making her look sullen.

"Gudong!"

Nova was startled by the other's gaze. Its four short, black rabbit ears twitched, and it struggled to twist its head.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

"I am Nova of the Dori tribe!" (chaj)

Upon hearing the other person's name, Iruma nodded thoughtfully, realizing he didn't know them at all.

"What a bold brat, daring to attack me. Do you know what the consequences will be?"

Nova wasn't afraid at all, waving her little fist and shouting, "I just can't stand it! Why should we, the Doll tribe, always live under the feet of others!"

"The charm of our Dori race lies in our solitary nature, unique in the Demon Realm!!"

The chieftain of the Doll tribe was so frightened by the sight that he almost fainted. He immediately shouted at him, "Nova! You are extremely rude!"

"Apologize to Lord Iruma immediately!!!"

Nova glared at Iruma, climbed up his arm and onto his neck, swaying back and forth. He was shocked to find that he couldn't budge Iruma at all, so he simply grabbed the pair of golden dragon horns.

"No!" Nova refused decisively, pointing at him and retorting, "Just because the other party is a high-ranking demon doesn't mean you should grovel!"

"We, the Dori, should be a race full of integrity!"

At this point, his anger intensified, and he almost gritted his teeth: "Why must we choose a way of life that is forever dependent on those of higher beings?!"

Iruma listened to Nova's speech without getting angry. Instead, he found it quite interesting. He never expected that this race, which only knew how to depend on others, would actually have someone who stood up.

Kneeling for too long makes it hard to stand up, and among those who kneel, rebels will emerge.

Faced with his disobedient grandson, the chief of the Do-Ear tribe sighed helplessly and rubbed his forehead, saying earnestly, "I've said it many times, this is for the continuation of the race."

"I already said that!" Nova gripped his dragon horns tightly and continued to retort, "Even without relying on high-ranking demons, we can still survive!"

"We are not a weak group that needs protection!"

"They even said that just because someone has excellent hearing shouldn't be labeled like that!"

"Therefore, I strongly oppose it!!!"

"I strongly disagree with this kind of cage-like gathering!"

As he spoke, he pulled on the dragon horns even harder, his face turning red, but he couldn't make Iruma move an inch.

"Did you hear me? You so-called emperor!"

Asmodeus, seething with anger, snapped, "You brat! Don't be rude to Lord Iruma!!"

"Hahahaha!!!" Iruma laughed instead of getting angry, his voice cheerful: "It's alright, this little guy is really interesting, hahaha~!"

"It's been a long time since I've met such an interesting guy!"

Upon hearing this, the chieftain of the Do-Eared Clan was stunned. He had not expected the other party to say such a thing. Faced with such rudeness, even if the high-ranking demon did not punish him seriously, he would at least resort to corporal punishment.

"However, I know nothing about your Doll tribe right now. Let me learn more about you."

Iruma grabbed Nova by the back of the neck and lifted him down, laughing as he said, "From now on, let this little guy be my introducer~".

"He will be in charge of explaining your Do-Ear tribe to me."

Nova struggled and refused, shouting, "Why should I?! I absolutely don't want to!!"

Why would I do something like this!

Asmodeus and Clara each grabbed one of his arms, staring at him with wicked grins.

"Since Lord Iruma has specifically chosen you, you should feel extremely honored and accept this supreme honor, little Nova~~"

"Let's join Iruma-chika's parade, little crawler~-~"

Ignoring Nova's struggles, the two dragged him out by force.

Mephistopheles, sitting inside the tent, smiled and looked meaningfully at the backs of the four of them.

His eyes were filled with curiosity and anticipation for them.

"Just how much of a surprise do you have in store for me? I can't wait to witness the results!"

"Will it be a collapse, or will I ascend the throne?"

Nova, who had been forcibly dragged out, explained the surrounding tents to the three of them with a pained expression, clearly stating where the tents were for bathing, eating, and resting.

Asmodeus nodded after listening, inwardly marveling at how well-stocked the tent was, befitting a nomadic race.

It can be packed away anytime, anywhere and taken away for evacuation.

He pointed to the ornate purple-blue tent and asked, "Nova, what's that over there?"

Nova, perched on Iruma's neck, looked in the direction of the sound. When he saw the ornate tent, he frowned slightly but said nonchalantly, "Oh, that's a training hut."

“People will be there for training in things like gem identification, music appreciation, and distinguishing subtle footsteps.”

"It's a tradition to train from a young age so that one can get a good job in the future."

Upon hearing this, Iruma crossed his arms and immediately lost interest.

"That kind of thing is really boring. There are only these three abilities from beginning to end. It's so tedious."

"Oh, so you think so too?!" Nova's eyes lit up, feeling as if he had found a like-minded person.

They also changed their opinion of the suddenly appearing Iruma-o.

After all, these three professions practically lock down the Do-Ear tribe, and at worst, they can only work as butlers or something similar.

Iruma put him down on the ground: "Hey, kid, take me to your tent!"

"Huh? There's nothing interesting there."

Nova's eyes darted around, as if he was trying his best to hide something.

Iruma didn't care at all, and poked his forehead with his finger: "If you want to change your race, take me to see. You must start by changing yourself."

"Then come along."

Nova reluctantly started walking towards his tent.

The three entered the Nova tent. Before they even went in, they could smell the scent of plants. After lifting the curtain and entering, they found the sides filled with a dazzling array of plants.

Clara took off her shoes and rushed into the house, looking around with curiosity in her eyes.

"Little Crawler has so many magic books!"

Asmodeus picked up an old magic book, and after reading its contents, he raised an eyebrow: "These are all about herbs and such, and even astrology, but they're all too outdated."

He put the book back in its place and turned his gaze to Nova.

This particular member of the Multi-Eared Tribe is so strange; no matter how you look at it, he seems like a born rebel.

If anyone dares to obstruct Lord Iruma, turn him into roasted rabbit!

Iruma carefully observed the vegetation; most of the plants here were vines, clinging to the tent like ivy.

"I see, so you specifically chose this kind of plant that can be kept alive by watering it?"

"Ah, after all, we migrate at any time, while other plants die very easily."

Asmodeus nodded: "However, given the Dolls' excellent hearing, is it really necessary for them to learn magic and specialized knowledge?"

After all, the Dolls are practically useless in both physical combat and magic, and are not even worth mentioning. Learning magic would be a complete waste of time and energy.

He couldn't understand why this young man from the Duoer tribe was so persistent.

Upon hearing this, Nova reacted like a flustered little rabbit, clenching her fists and shouting at him, "Of course it's necessary!!!"

He lowered his head, a gloomy look lingering between his brows: "Of course it's necessary. For the future of the Do-Ear tribe, those things are essential."

"Absolutely indispensable"

"The Doll tribe has exceptional hearing, and I deeply respect and am proud of them for using this ability to thrive in various places."

"But that's precisely why I don't want to accept using my powerful abilities as a way to serve high-ranking demons, as I am doing now."

"Instead of working for outsiders, we should make good use of these abilities for ourselves."

"If you have a low magic reserve, you can hone your skills; if you lack knowledge, you can learn!"

"Even without relying on other demons, our Doll race can become independent on our own!"
