Even the Demon King is worrying about another world today.

"This is……?"

This is the mark of a demonic contract!

Even more deadly is that there is a ram's head in that six-pointed star magic circle, and that ram's head represents the Demon King, the leader of all demons.

Although I had heard the Demon King mention this before, I never imagined it would have progressed to this point.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that this beast-eared girl can be called the Demon King's exclusive possession.

Anyone would find it irresistible to have their own special mark left by the Demon King!

Akman's feelings at this point could no longer be described as envy; they were filled with pure jealousy.

With his extraordinary perception, Mikayi immediately sensed the killing intent emanating from Akman.

"I told you, don't make a move," the Demon King warned.

"Demon Lord... I'm sorry." Akman released her grip on Kuro's wrist. "I... I just..."

"Don't worry, I'll leave after I find her family."

The Demon King could probably guess what his apostles were worried about.

Mikayi's life is infinite; compared to creatures whose lives are constantly slipping away, he is eternal. Even when souls that have exhausted their lives are reincarnated and resurrected, the number of times a soul can be reincarnated is finite.

He was trying his best to maintain an observer's attitude. Only by keeping a sufficient distance would the actual separation be less painful. Although he was trying his best to restrain his emotions, Mikayi had to admit that since coming to this continent, his emotions had been leaking out as if they had found an outlet.

It's not that he's fickle; rather, the most essential aspect of his soul is that of a fickle human being. Even though he once sealed away his excess emotions, the emotions that re-emerged only grew stronger and stronger.

When a life comes to an end before his eyes, the most painful person is not the deceased, but the one who watches the deceased depart. Therefore, keeping one's distance is, for the Demon King, a matter of being responsible to himself.

Emotions are something that, if left untouched, will not bring pain. Besides, dark magic devours his heart and emotions; as a demon lord, cruelty and evil are what he should be doing. It's just that lately, his emotions have been increasing, and the rate at which they are being consumed can't keep up.

If necessary, he would activate the sealing magic again to plug the emotional gap.

Immortality, in a sense, is extreme loneliness.

Kuro's eyes flickered with unease. From her perspective, she believed that her mentor, Akman, had seen the black magic circle on the back of her hand and, because she repelled black magic, had acted in this way.

When Kuro placed his palm on the testing crystal ball, the originally clear crystal became cloudy. Black gas flowed inside the crystal ball, and suddenly, the black light intensified.

The encroaching darkness drew everyone's attention away.

"Dark magic..."

"My God, there's a dark mage in my class..."

Anxiety and fear are spreading.

The exclamations were not deliberately concealed; both Mikayi and Kuro heard them clearly.

Mikaela remained silent; this was a responsibility Kuro had to bear alone. Even if he stepped forward and taught those people a lesson, it would only make Kuro more vulnerable to being bullied.

Kuro clenched his fists, lowered his head, and his drooping bangs completely obscured his expression.

I've told you before, you have to be careful when you go down the path of dark magic...

From now on, you will have to endure being looked at differently every moment.

Seeing Kuro's clenched fist, Mikayi raised his arm and tried to comfort her.

Before his hand could even touch the top of Kuro's head, Kuro raised his head.

"Hmph, a bunch of weaklings. Don't even think about clinging to me, Kuro, after I become a powerful dark mage!" Kuro snorted a few times, pushing through the crowd of onlookers as he left. He didn't forget to take his master with him as he went.

Mikayi smiled helplessly and glanced at the symbol that appeared on the crystal ball as he left.

It was the head of a young goat that hadn't yet grown horns; goats represent the Demon King. Perhaps Kuro's soul was influenced by the Demon King, which is why this strange pattern appeared.

The magic essence was only the size of a sheep's head and not worth mentioning. The crowd of onlookers glanced at it disdainfully for a few moments and then dispersed.

Mikayi, however, knew that there was a kind of black goat, even as a cub, that was taller than a mountain.

Back in the classroom, classes officially began in the afternoon.

The college seems to be very cautious in grading students. Another test will be conducted before a final grade is determined regarding this test result.

Hedis had naturally sat down next to Mikayi, reasoning that, 'Since we're roommates, it's only natural to sit together and foster our relationship.'

But in his heart, Hedis was making his own calculations. Micah always gave him an extraordinary sense of power, and cultivating a good relationship with such a powerful mage would be beneficial to both him and his family.

"You're back?" Hedis, who was resting on the table, raised his head. There were marks on his forehead from the cuffs of his sleeves.

Mikayi and Kuro sat down beside him. After they were seated, Hedis mysteriously leaned his head closer.

"So? What was the result?"

“What else can we do?” Mikayi shrugged. “I’m wind attribute, and Kuro is dark attribute.”

"That's not what I asked you! Stop pretending and tell me properly."

Helpless, Mikayi took a pen and drew a circle on the paper.

"that's it."

“Hmm…” Hedis stroked his chin thoughtfully, “A circle can represent too much.”

"It's probably about the size of a car wheel."

“Impossible,” Hedis immediately rejected. Although he had never seen Mikael’s strongest magic, the fact that he could unleash such power with just a single wind blade showed that his mastery of magic was unparalleled.

To possess such powerful control over the elements would require an exceptional affinity for wind magic. And with such an affinity, the crucial magic element would be even higher.

Hedis was calculating the circular object in his mind.

"It can't be a sun, can it..." Hedis said doubtfully.

"Pfft... What are you thinking?" Mikayi chuckled. "How could that be? If it were that advanced, what would I be doing sitting here? I would have already unified..."

"Have you ruled the world?"

“That makes sense.” Hedis was quickly convinced.

Not to mention that no species in this world possesses such magic, furthermore, if it were truly that powerful, why would anyone risk their life to accept a subjugation mission?

"Sigh..." Kuro sighed from the side.

This seemingly casual sigh was actually a moment of silence in mourning for Hedis.

This human being completely manipulated by his master... how pitiful.

093 Monster Classification

"The difference between magical beasts and monsters: magical beasts are all beasts that have been corrupted by magic. Monsters, on the other hand, include not only all magical beasts, but also demons, dragons, insects, and so on."

"To distinguish between magical beasts and ordinary animals, you only need to know whether their meat is edible to easily differentiate them. For example, wild boars and magical fire boars are both pigs, but the former is a delicacy on the table, while the latter is a nightmare that disturbs farms. If you eat fire boars, their meat will damage your liver."

"However, I recently heard that in a distant eastern country, they've already figured out how to eat the fire boar. Those foodies are something else..."

"Teacher!" A girl sitting in the front row raised her hand and asked, "If we classify them this way, would inedible insects like fleas and spiders be considered monsters or animals?"

The history instructor, who was giving the lecture, adjusted his glasses: "If you were to deep-fry the insects you mentioned, they wouldn't be completely inedible. It's understood that spiders are extremely high in protein, which is beneficial to the human body. However, if it's a three-eyed spider, then it's a demon. Demons contain toxins, and these toxins can cause irreversible damage to internal organs once they enter the human body."

"To be precise, the difference between magical beasts and animals lies in whether or not they are harmful to the human body after being eaten. All magical beasts contain more or less toxins, so this classification is both simple and clear."

"Oh..." The girl who asked the question nodded and sat down.

What's wrong with these people? They're actually using food to distinguish species... But it actually makes a lot of sense, and there's no way to refute it. Mikayi listened expressionlessly, but his mind was racing with complaints.

"The variety of magical beasts is too vast, so classifying their strength by race is clearly not feasible. Over a long period of time, humanity has divided magical beasts into seven corresponding magical ranks."

"Magic levels: low-level, mid-level, high-level, advanced, ultimate, lost, and divine. These correspond to the seven major magical beast levels."

"Beast levels: Low, Medium, High, Calamity, Annihilation, Divine Beast, Ancient Divine Beast."

Mikayi listened very carefully. In the past, the Garan Continent didn't have a clear ranking system for magical beasts. Basically, the longer the lifespan, the greater the strength. Therefore, Ancient Divine Beasts were the strongest magical beasts on the Garan Continent, and by that logic, they were also the highest level on the Garan Continent.

"I see!"

Hedis’s sudden remark startled Mikael, who was standing next to him.

Realizing his voice was a bit loud, Hedis lowered it and said, "Mikai, your magic power is a well!"

"what?"

What is this guy saying?

Mikayi couldn't understand this person's thought process.

“So, it’s a circular well.” Hedis was quite confident in his conclusion, gesturing as he spoke. “Although the wellhead isn’t large, it goes straight down to the ground! So the total volume must exceed the volume of my house, no doubt about it!”

This unfathomable depth perfectly captures the sense of mystery that Mikayi evokes.

Hedis nodded, becoming even more convinced of his conclusion.

"..." Is this guy alright? Why is he still dwelling on this issue? Is he just stubborn?

Mikayi did not respond to him, remaining noncommittal.

"A year ago, in the distant Ais Federation, well... now the territory should be called the Zorro Empire, a very ancient demon race appeared there."

“Demon,” the history instructor emphasized. The word sent a chill down the spines of all the students.

"The demons appeared and disappeared without warning, reminding people of the era thousands or tens of thousands of years ago when demons were still active."

"That era could only be described as terrifying. Black magic was rampant, and disease and despair permeated the streets and alleys. Until a hero appeared. The powerful hero broke through the darkness and ushered in hope and light."

The instructor spoke with great passion. Mikayi listened quietly.

Well, the hero thing is so cliché. Justice and evil can't maintain an absolute balance forever, so it's perfectly normal for one side to suddenly become powerful for hundreds of years at a time.

When darkness descends, heroes will appear to save the world. When justice prevails, demon kings will emerge to disrupt the order.

This is the law of conservation of all things.

Mikayi listened attentively. If there was one course in this academy that attracted him the most, it would be history.

As for the other courses, such as mathematics, the math in this other world was shockingly bad, barely reaching the level of simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Mikayi, who had taken the Earth's college entrance exam, could only sit in his seat and anxiously watch his math tutor.

Furthermore, language lessons were child's play for Mikayi, who had been fluent in the languages ​​of various ethnic groups for tens of thousands of years.

As for magic lessons... needless to say. No one has the ability to teach a demon lord magic.

However, regarding physical education classes, since it's Akman's class, special attention is needed.

Pay attention for a few moments. It seems like we have physical education class the day after tomorrow.

“Previously, there were no textbooks specifically about demons in the curriculum. Because of the demons that suddenly appeared a year ago, the country stipulated that information about this ancient race be brought out and taught so that the people can understand it clearly.”
