The Black Death Emperor Faction Volunteers for Death

"Seeking an interpretation--"

"What is this? Although it doesn't seem like a virus email..."

Asagi tilted her head and opened the documents attached to the letter.

A quick glance revealed a strange string of characters of unknown origin, an alarmingly complex language system, and a flawed logical array. It was unlike any other language that had ever existed on Earth, and it was not a spell used for magic or incantations.

Even if all the linguists or magicians were mobilized, deciphering these would likely still be difficult.

However, it was a completely different story for Asagi Aiba.

She is very intelligent and has a strong interest in solving puzzles.

"You've got guts to challenge me."

With a pleased expression, she exhaled, her Asagi.

Her hacker instincts told her that the symbols displayed on the phone were not strings of characters designed for humans, and therefore could not be deciphered using ordinary linguistic methods.

This is a language created for things other than humans, a command system used to manipulate unknown and special structures—it is a program.

A command system used to manipulate unknown special structures.

This perfectly matches her expertise.

Just then, she was still upset because of the big loss she suffered in her most prized area due to that unknown guy last time. With nowhere to vent her frustration and driven by pure curiosity, Asagi immediately decided to prepare to decipher it.

Soon, Asagi began to immerse herself in deciphering the text.

The strange script was dismantled, revealing the translated text.

"'Narakvera'...?"

Looking at the single word appearing on the screen, Asagi muttered something and continued typing on the keyboard.

As night deepened in the Demon Sanctuary of Itogami City, neither the security forces nor the demon hunters had yet learned that things had taken everyone by surprise.

Orcs simply lack the intelligence to decipher the characters, but they can entrust the task to world-class geniuses...

It was already midnight when we left the cruise ship.

Since Yukina lives in a small villa next to Mahiro's house, she can go the same way as Mahiro.

As they left the cruise ship to return home, Yukina kept apologizing on behalf of her friend, hoping Mahiro could forgive her.

Along the way, Yukina talked a lot.

It mainly focuses on Sayaka Kirasaka's past.

Sayaka Kirasaka was often abused by her biological father when she was a child, so she is afraid of contact with boys.

All the schools she had ever attended were women's colleges.

She's been my only friend since childhood, so I care about her too much, which is why I acted out of spite.

Mahiro knew these things very well, and they were described in the original work. However, after hearing them, he couldn't help but sigh that sometimes the difference between people is greater than the difference between people and animals.

Despite having such a lovely and beautiful daughter, she doesn't cherish her and instead hurts her countless times.

Fortunately, Sayaka Kirasaka's father died a few years ago.

This is something to be comforted by.

"So, Sayaka Kirasaka didn't mean to speak ill of her senior. Actually Sayaka Kirasaka is quite pitiful," Yukina said softly.

"Yes, don't worry, I know. I didn't take those things to heart." Mahiro with a faint smile.

"Thank you so much, senior. If possible, could you please ask Ms. Natsuki about Jadex?"

Upon arriving at Yotsuba Mahiro's villa, the girl smiled Mahiro.

He waved Mahiro to Mahiro and returned to the apartment across the street.

Watching Yukina's graceful figure disappear into the villa next door, Mahiro couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking that this little girl seemed to be serious this time.

No, given Yukina's stubborn nature, she always takes every decision she makes seriously.

But what's the point of having him ask Natsuki- chan?

That Natsuki -chan did indeed capture several unregistered demons, and after interrogation, they were indeed connected to the Black Death Emperor Faction. However, the problem is that the whereabouts of those stone tablets are still unknown.

And most importantly, even Yotsuba Mahiro can't be of much help with this matter.

Aside from the lack of description of the stone slab's whereabouts in the original work, he also sent people to search for the Black Death Emperor Faction.

Unfortunately...

The large number of people associated with those beastmen, coupled with the numerous corporations on Itogami Island, has hindered the Shadow Garden's investigation, yielding mostly irrelevant information.

Even Zeta, who is most skilled at gathering intelligence, was at a loss at this moment.

We can only wait for these guys to show themselves.

The next day.

The blazing sun rose again from the sea, bathing the morning light streaming in through the window, and Mahiro awoke from his sleep.

It wasn't that I woke up naturally; I was forcibly woken up!

"Brother Mahiro! Oh dear, Brother Mahiro, it's time to get up!"

Instead of the alarm clock, Nagisa Aiba's voice rang in her ears, half as sharp as usual.

They chirped and chattered like sparrows.

The girl, already changed into her uniform, barged into his bedroom and flung open the curtains.

Then he snatched the blanket from Mahiro, who instinctively wanted to Mahiro her head because the sunlight was too bright.

"It's dawn! Get up! You'll be late. What are you going to do about breakfast? Oh, you turned off your alarm again. Did you bring all your textbooks? Where's your homework? You even took off your clothes and left them lying around... Hey? Mahiro- ge, really! How did you manage to crumple up such an expensive evening dress like that?!"

"Yawn, what does it matter? I'll only wear it once anyway. I was planning to throw it away anyway..."

Mahiro yawned, slowly sat up in bed, rubbing his sleepy eyes; he was clearly still half asleep.

"How can that be? I remember this brand of clothing is very, very expensive. We can't waste it; we have to keep it safe!"

Nagisa Akatsuki, who had been full of energy since early morning, stood by the bed, hands on her hips, and gave him a verbal lecture.

While giving him a lecture, she also took out a clothes hanger, picked up the trousers he had crumpled into a ball, shook them out, and then neatly hung them one by one on the hanger.

Meanwhile, Yotsuba Mahiro swayed as he stood up and walked towards the bathroom.

He turned on the tap and washed his face; the cool water immediately dispelled most of his sleepiness.

Given his current physical condition, he can actually manage without sleep.

But the worst thing is being forced to turn on your computer in the middle of the night; that would be pure torture.

However, if he weren't forced to turn on the computer, he probably wouldn't have been able to sleep for very long.

As always, the dining table was laden with breakfast specialties from various countries.

But unlike usual, the black-clad Gothic Lolita girl who always liked to sit in the main seat wasn't there.

According to Veldiana, Natsuki -chan left home before dawn.

It's said that the security forces have new intelligence; they've reportedly found the stronghold of the Black Death Emperor Faction.

When he heard the news, he glanced at Zeta and Alpha, who were dining there.

But they both shook their heads.

It's obvious that the information Natsuki- chan received was false.

However, he didn't mind. After finishing breakfast, he took Yuuma Sengakuji, Nagisa Akatsuki, and the others to school.

Walking into Class 1-A's classroom and returning to her seat, the first thing Mahiro was open the window, enjoying the cool sea breeze blowing into the classroom while catching up on some sleep.

Seeing this, Asagi Aiba, who was sitting next to her, simply sighed slightly, indicating that she was already used to it.

She also placed her schoolbag on the table and began to catch up on her sleep.

She didn't get much sleep because she was deciphering that text last night.

Fortunately, her efforts were not in vain; in just one night, she had already deciphered part of the program.

It seems to be Narakvera's wake-up program?

"What exactly is Narakvera..."

Accompanied by dreamlike murmurs, Asagi Aiba also drifted off to sleep.

It wasn't until the third period in the morning that she woke up from her sleep, sat up, and listened attentively to the teacher's lecture, taking careful notes.

Occasionally, he would steal a glance at Mahiro's handsome sleeping face.

Everything was the same as usual.

Then suddenly, a loud, rough sound came from the front of the classroom.

Clang!

Suddenly, the classroom door was rudely opened.

Upon seeing the figure slowly enter the room, the students let out short gasps of surprise.

The person who appeared and blocked the doorway was a tall man in a gray military uniform. His face was covered with silver animal hair, and sharp teeth were protruding from his mouth.

"Orcs? And not even registered demons?!"

Asagi's seatmate, Motoki Yaze let out a small gasp, which prompted Asagi to let out a soft moan in return.

Are unregistered demons scary?

That's terrifying.

Because that's something the security forces can't monitor.

Not to mention, they were a group of unregistered demons who suddenly barged into the classroom, looking like menacing terrorists!

Yuuma Sengakuji, who was in the same class, frowned slightly when she saw the group of orcs who had barged in.

If it were just an orc, she was confident she could defeat it with magic and easily subdue it.

However, there are currently about ten orcs swarming in through the front and back doors, and the safety of the classmates must also be taken into account.

Even with a surprise attack, it's difficult to guarantee the safety of the students...

As she thought of this, she caught a glimpse of her father, who was still catching up on sleep, out of the corner of her eye.

Seeing Yotsuba Mahiro's peaceful sleeping face, her heart inexplicably calmed down.

Yes, since Father is here, it seems there's no need for me to intervene. I just hope these orcs will behave themselves and not disturb Father's sleep.

Otherwise--

My father's morning grumpiness is terrifying.

"Grigori, have you found him?"

Following the orc who had first stormed into the classroom, another burly man in military uniform entered.

Although the newcomer was in human form, he was a middle-aged man with an astonishingly dignified presence. In particular, the scar on his left eye, which resembled a centipede coiled menacingly on his face, left a deep impression.

"I can only confirm that she's among the forty-odd students in the class, the team leader."

The orc being questioned spoke in a bitter, incomprehensible voice, apparently not fluent in Japanese.

Upon hearing their conversation, Motoki Yaze immediately understood.

They were looking for someone, so they went straight to their classroom.

Just then, the Void Witch, Natsuki Minamiya, was also away from school due to some business... Could it be that these guys deliberately lured us away?!

Motoki Yaze quickly analyzed the situation: if Natsuki Minamiya were at school, these unregistered demons wouldn't dare set foot in the Saikai Academy.

But the current situation is far too bad.

Does this mean we really have to rely on him this time?
