Chapter 2 - If you want it, fight for it
Klaus applauded inwardly at the sight of the fairy woman, who had become so loose that it was hard to believe she was the same Natasha from just yesterday, and praised her as an excellent student.
The sight of a woman who had been grumbling about being embarrassed just yesterday turning into a temptress overnight, exposing her own bare skin and openly seducing a man, was a truly desirable picture no matter how many times he saw it.
On top of that, although Natasha didn't know it, she had just effectively issued a challenge to the Demon King.
Because Yulia, who had just been about to speak to Klaus, had been pushed back because of her.
A woman from a powerful family in the fairy world, and a monarch of the demon race, however nominal.
The war of nerves between the two was a masterpiece that never got old, no matter how many times the regression cycle repeated.
'Should I fan the flames a little more here?'
His goal was Yulia, through and through.
Did that mean he intended to give up on other women? Absolutely not.
If he had intended to be satisfied with just one Demon King after going through all this trouble, he would have succeeded long ago.
As the creator who made this world, he should at least live surrounded by dozens of notable women.
The fact that Yulia was the first among them, but that he absolutely did not intend to be a man of pure love looking only at her, was Klaus's true inner thought.
In that sense, he was currently showing more focus on Natasha than Yulia.
By showing a scene where he was slightly shaken by Natasha's sudden change, he planned to instill the possibility of "It's possible!" in the fairy, and the tension of "I'm going to get stolen away!" in the Demon King.
"Cadet Natasha. What is that outfit. Button it up properly."
"What can I do? The cadet uniform is too small. I did order a new one, but the custom tailoring is delayed, so I think I'll have to be like this for a while."
Well, it was all true, so there wasn't really anything to say.
In reality, unlike her temper that would hiss at the slightest touch, Natasha's breasts were incredibly merciful.
Usually, they were hidden by the cadet uniform so that feeling didn't come across, but today, by deliberately unbuttoning it and erasing the aura of being tightly blocked, that voluptuousness was emphasized twofold.
Although she could be called a novice at handling magic power, when it came to handling her own charm, as expected of the seductive fairies, one could say she was well above average.
"Or, would you like to button it for me, Professor-nim?"
"...."
"I can't seem to get it closed when I try."
It made him wonder if she was really the same person as the woman from yesterday.
He had known for a while that she had made up her mind overnight to drag Klaus into the Belarus family, but it was one of the scenes that was surprising every time he saw it.
Later on, she would stuff letters, cups, and even swords into that cleavage; she really did all sorts of things.
Klaus, who had shown a moment of conflict, turned his body.
And then, just as he was deliberately reaching out his hand very slowly toward the sweet-smelling skin of the woman...
Hwak!-
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Natasha's body spun around to the other side!
Unlike Klaus, who wasn't very surprised because he knew this was a situation that would happen, Natasha, flustered by the sudden situation, stopped scrambling and soon faced the person who had turned her around.
"Y, you!"
"You are rude to the Professor-nim. Are all fairies like that? Even us demons observe basic etiquette."
The monarch of the Eastern Demons, Yulia Agnesa.
The very woman whom all cadets subconsciously were wary of, even though they tried not to be conscious of her, was glaring at her with terrifying eyes.
Natasha was startled by that, but realizing Klaus was standing right behind her, she soon calmed her pounding heart and opened her mouth with her usual haughty expression.
"Rude? I was just making a request to the Professor-nim, wasn't I?"
"Aren't you ashamed? You, who call that a request."
"No? I actually feel more ashamed of you for cutting in like this. Your Majesty the Demon King."
For reference, no one in the world knows Yulia's terror yet.
It is a fact known only to Klaus, who has suffered it dozens of times.
Even Yulia herself did not know that such a terrifying nature resided within her.
For that reason, not only the cadets but everyone in the world just saw Yulia as a woman who rose to the position of King by chance, because she was lucky, met good parents, and had absolutely no talent or ability.
It is a natural result, but they do not fear or dread her either.
"...."
If this were an ordinary academy, Natasha's behavior just now would certainly be rude.
But this Continental Academy is a place where the situation is completely different from other educational institutions.
Every single cadet has a higher social status than the professors belonging to the academy.
Or, even if not right now, there are many who the professors wouldn't dare to even speak to later on.
Right now, Natasha is a woman of the Belarus family, and Cecily is the youngest daughter of the Leblanc family.
Besides them, many other cadets were people from places that held power in their respective races.
There are even several cadets of royal origin. Of course, it was an unprecedented case for a King to enter as a cadet like Yulia.
In any case, an unconditional hierarchical relationship is not established just because they are cadets and professors.
They respect each other, but since it is an educational institution, the cadet side shows courtesy first, and the professors do their best as teachers in accordance with that courtesy.
"And don't touch my body carelessly. How dare a mere demon."
"What did you say?"
"Don't even think about saying I'm rude just because you're the Demon King or whatever. One of the conditions for entering the academy is not to excessively reveal your birth. Surely you don't remember, do you? You are not the Demon King here, just a demon cadet. So, if you're a demon, stay put like a demon. You were so confident, yet you were the one who proposed the armistice negotiations first."
For a moment, Yulia's eyebrows arched up scarily.
Even if she is a nominal Demon King controlled by her uncle, she is ultimately a demon.
They are people who spew out tremendous hostility without hiding it toward those who look down on them and their kin, especially those who act up without being strong themselves.
"It's absurd. You'd think it was you who led those armistice negotiations."
"Isn't that obvious? It's because the Western Alliance won...."
"Don't make me laugh, fairy. You were on the verge of defeat. If that man standing behind you hadn't held out in the South, the demons' supply lines would have been a smooth road, and all defensive lines would have been broken through just like that. You didn't win. Commander Klaus of the South won."
I've heard that conversation a few times, but it still feels like my hands and feet are curling up.
The feeling of hearing someone else talk about you in front of another person is always like this.
It should be normal to feel happy or proud, but it's that kind of thing where you strangely start coughing and feel embarrassed.
Meanwhile, Yulia stepped a few steps closer to Natasha.
By the time the distance between the two became close enough that one might worry, 'Wouldn't she punch her in the face at this rate?',
"And as you said, I also know for sure that it is not allowed to excessively reveal one's birth within the academy. That is why I am saying this, Cadet Natasha Belarus. You should also conduct yourself like a cadet if you are a cadet. No matter how I look at it, your current appearance is not that of a student who has come to gain teachings."
Click-.
Yulia buttoned up Natasha's cadet uniform with quite rough movements.
Her expression looked like she would grab her by the collar or strangle her in this state, but she didn't go that far and was just buttoning it up to the end with rough hands, the Demon King.
"You look like nothing more than a lewd fairy."
"Wha, what... Keuk!"
Yulia buttoned the last button while deliberately choking Natasha's neck slightly.
Thanks to that, Natasha, who had been speaking, had to grab her neck while gagging.
After knocking down the lewd fairy who was flirting like that in one go, Yulia left the lecture hall without hiding the fact that she was very displeased.
"The lecture was very impressive today, Professor-nim. I'm really looking forward to the next lecture as well."
Of course, not forgetting to give Klaus a subtle look.
Slide, thud!-
'...She was definitely a scary woman from this time.'
Just as he was thinking that while looking at the place where Yulia had disappeared.
The fairy woman who had been gagging for a while glared with eyes that had turned red, looking quite angry.
"What kind of woman is that? This is why demons are!"
"Stop it. I suspected it, but it's your fault for doing that openly in the lecture hall, Cadet Natasha."
"I did what you said, so what's the problem! Attack regardless of time and place! That's right, isn't it!"
"It's good that you want to apply it, but the time and place I was talking about didn't mean a place where there are eyes watching like this. Think a little, think."
"The cadets all left the lecture hall, okay? I thought I was the last one, but that damn demon..."
"Disparaging the opposing race within the academy is an absolute taboo. Surely you haven't forgotten?"
He stiffened his face coldly while looking serious.
Then, Natasha, who had been grumbling in anger, was suppressed by that momentum and couldn't even speak properly, only muttering, 'I did what you told me to do, so what's the problem.'
Watching that, Klaus thought it was a truly Natasha-like appearance.
Because of her sharp appearance, one might think she would show something thorough and cold.
In fact, Natasha Belarus could be called a fairy who possessed a subtle clumsiness, a woman who had good intentions but couldn't quite follow through with the results.
Even now, she is setting her sights on things like, 'I am seducing Klaus,' 'I will make him fall for me and fix that arrogant attitude,' but.
In reality, it could be said that she was the one who was gradually falling into the quagmire called Klaus.
Later on, the people around her would all know that fact.
Natasha herself would be shocked, saying it's absolutely not true, asking why she would be falling for that man.
"Cadet Natasha. Didn't you say you had something to talk to me about?"
"Ah. Yes, that's right."
"You seem to be intending to list very accurately what you can do for me if I head to Belarus. Is that right? Cadet Natasha?"
"...Yes."
Natasha looked at him as if wondering how he had predicted that.
This part was something that could be obviously predicted regardless of regression or cycles.
There had been such and such things with Natasha for the past few days, so would this woman have really come up to him fluttering, with her cleavage all exposed and wearing bottoms that looked like her panties would be visible if she moved even a little, just to chat about miscellaneous things?
Everyone has something they want from each other.
This is indeed an academy, but it is not a place of learning like other academies.
It is a place where things more intense, murky, and ugly than any desire in the world run wild.
It was a place where those standing above struggled to climb higher, or to avoid falling to a lower place.
"Then, shall we talk while having a cup of tea or coffee, simply?"
"No. In my room, like last time."
"...The sun is still high in the sky, Cadet Natasha."
"Did I say anything else? I just said it would be nice to talk quietly, just the two of us in my room. I remember saying that. Were you imagining something, Professor-nim Klaus?"
In a situation where it was obvious what purpose she was inviting him to her room for, she twisted her words like that.
She seemed to have done so with the intention of provoking him, but unfortunately, he was the one who had repeated the same situation as now over and over again.
"Well, that's fine. I don't have many lectures today anyway. I'm really looking forward to what kind of secret story it is. I hope there is a condition that I will be tempted by this time."
"Don't worry. I've brought a 'condition' that you'll really like."
This is really something to look forward to. In fact, he already knew what that condition was.
And he also knew that a moment later, a situation completely opposite to the picture she had in mind would unfold.
Klaus laughed inwardly and pretended to have fallen for Natasha's words, saying they should be careful so they wouldn't get caught by other cadets again.
'Good, keep being off guard like that. I'll seduce you in an instant!'
They said there was nothing easier to lure than a man who was off guard.
Natasha thought so and took the lead, heading to her room.
She was still a little embarrassed and felt shameful, but if she thought about the future of Belarus and herself, she consoled herself that it was a profitable deal.
'As expected, a klutz.'
It's fine to harbor vain delusions at least while going to the room, isn't it? I'll let it slide, Natasha.
Spin your happy circuits a lot. That way, it'll be more fun to torment you a little later.
Thinking about the show that would happen in a moment, which would be so much fun just to think about, Klaus smiled.
