Orientation is one day away. Considering that the entrance ceremony later will be nothing more than a formal oath ceremony, the real academy life begins tomorrow.

Starting tomorrow, I will truly become a new student at the private Labyrinth Academy.

The only thing you lose is the fact that you have to be careful when you brag, ‘I’m a Labyrinthian cadet,’ but there are several limitations.

Until now, under the pretext of joining the dormitory, even if you moved into the dormitory and behaved rudely, it would have been condoned or aided, but now there is an obligation to maintain dignity.

Of course, if you have caused a major accident in that short period of time, you will be frowned upon before you even start, so it is natural that life at the academy will be more difficult, but the difference is that you will be subject to official sanctions.

Anyway, it would be nice if Sammy could have a smooth life at the academy without getting scolded… … .

Another thing is that from now on, you must learn and practice the laws of the Miss Academy in your life. Things like ‘Are you in peace?’, ‘Araara uhuhu’, ‘Soor’, and ‘Deswa’.

Some call it a cliché, some call it a class culture, and some call it an academy tradition or school culture, this is the so-called young lady habitus.

Of course, there is no way that a play like this can be performed well overnight. Moreover, if you are an outsider like me and come from the common people, it is no different from asking if you don’t like me.

“Still, do you understand why you have to speak in a girlish tone?” Miss Edrose said, raising her index finger in a half-melted state. “This is because there are fundamental classes and factions in this academy, which is a miniature version of the Demon World society.”

“Woman, as expected… … .”

“Being scared doesn’t help. It’s not a big deal anyway.” And Miss Edrose continued her explanation.

First of all, humans. It should be said that there is actually no case for a commoner like me who is also homo sapiens sapiens by blood. Most of them are those who passed the A3 screening process and are children of conglomerates or upper-class families who are trying to adhere to the order led by the devil.

Basically, they stick together and secretly look down on those who passed the A1 screening process because they were born from a different race thanks to having good parents. They also seem to have met their parents well… … .

“Then what about A2?”

“Well… … .” Miss Edrose pointed her index finger in my direction. I’m more concerned about Ms. Edrose’s flabby, bent, melting fingers than about being stabbed with a pointer.

“Won’t you be treated like Penny Dickens?”

“Huh? Me?” I understood what that meant only a little later.

A2, which I belong to, may be a bit embarrassing, but ‘special’ people like me are so rare that there are years when no one passes the exam, so it seems like there isn’t enough data.

So what about other races from another world?

Do you remember the story of Miss Sammy’s family, the half-breed raredona I described when I met Miss Edrose?

Because different races are more diverse than human races, their personalities are also very different, and of course there is invisible discrimination and conflict between them. And at the peak are the demons, the rulers of this world and the demon king’s compatriots.

Just below that, those from families that were active in major fields as the main force in the Demon King’s army are treated as upper class. Minotaurs, dark elves, ogres, etc., if you think about it, there are not many.

Next, regular soldiers such as lamia, orcs, goblins, and werewolves were treated as middle class. Still, at this level, I don’t think I’ll be ignored in this world.

The so-called protagonist party races, such as elves and dwarves who rebelled against the Demon King and were defeated, are said to be of quite low status, and many of them immigrated to Earth after the gate was opened.

Lastly, the Third Zone races, such as slimes and dragons, who had no interest or involvement in the Demon King’s war for domination of the other world, are in an ambiguous position.

Since this world has a kind of militarism, it seems natural that social status is determined by one’s position within the Demon King’s army.

“That’s fascinating, I didn’t know classes existed like that… … .”

“You are talking as if humans are not a class society.”

“… … Ah.”

Of course, the war happened 1,000 years ago, and during those thousand years, the Demon King himself tried to abolish racial discrimination, so species discrimination has become less noticeable today.

However, on the contrary, the invisible differences that had been deeply rooted in each race, family, and bloodline for 1,000 years, generation after generation, remained even stronger.

At Labyrinth Academy, where such diverse races gather, what unites students from different origins and families is the upper-class culture, ‘Lady Habitus.’

There are demons who have been educated by nobles since childhood and have ‘peace be with you’ on their lips, middle-class races who are trying hard to adapt to upper-class culture, and humans who think of all this as pretentious play, at least within the academy. The rule is that you have to say ‘araara uhhuhu’ when talking.

Of course, there may be people who see this as violence that requires all students to behave to the pleasure of upper-class noble students… … .

To me, it just seems okay with the romance mixed in.

───

The morning of orientation day. I met Finn in front of the room.

Originally, we had planned to head to the main lecture room, including Miss Sammy, except for Miss Edrose, who had locked herself in her room saying ‘I don’t feel the need to listen to the OT’.

However, early this morning, an incident occurred in which Miss Sammy was kidnapped by masked gunmen who opened the door and barged in, leaving only the words “Please help me “Please help me “───.”.

As soon as I woke up at dawn, my heart almost broke, and I quickly grabbed Ms. Edrose’s blanket and woke her up. “What should I do, Miss Edrose?! Miss Sammy… … .”

Miss Edrose fell out from under the blanket and began to take on the shape of a human being. “Hmm… … . What is it.”

“Miss Sammy has been kidnapped! City, should I report it? Or chase after it… … ? It wasn’t just one or two people! I, I’m not good at fighting… … .”

“Why don’t you just leave it alone?” Although it is questionable whether she is capable of rubbing her eyes, Miss Edrose answered by rubbing her eyes.

“No skirt─!”

“No need to worry. They can’t do anything to Sammy anyway. Because I chose the wrong person.”

For a moment I wondered if that was what he wanted to say, but then I agreed. Now that I think about it, considering Sammy’s strength, what we really need to worry about are the kidnappers.

Of course, considering Sammy’s naivety, I’m not worried about what might happen… … It wasn’t any other place, it was the Miss Academy, and I wondered what would happen.

Maybe it’s a surprise ceremony unique to the Academy… … . Or it could be Lee Gyeong-gyu’s hidden camera… … .

Even though I tried to soothe myself, I couldn’t calm down, so I had to open the door and look around for a while before going back to sleep.

Not yet realizing that I had misunderstood Miss Edrose’s words.

… … Thanks to this, I was exhausted from the morning of orientation day.

Finn also said, ‘I couldn’t sleep because I was half excited and nervous,’ but more than that, he didn’t seem to remember that he was briefly awakened by a commotion in the next room early in the morning yesterday.

Even so, “Penny, look at this——! This cloak──!! It doesn’t seem to have any effect at all as he runs around saying “50 points to Gryffindor!!””.

I left the dormitory building and headed towards the main building, which I had only seen through the vine-covered fence. What was more spectacular than the building was the procession wearing the same Academy cape as us.

Many new students poured out of the dormitory building, each heading in the same direction with expectations for a new world, and we were excited to know that we were also a part of them.

“How is it living with your roommates?”

One is a monster of sticky liquid, and the other is wearing only a thin bra top and dolphin pants that show off her buttocks every morning, and because it makes her dick angry, she uses you as a side dish every day to relieve it by masturbating.

… … If you say that, you will be scolded. No matter how good a kid Finn is, it is a sin that cannot help but be despised. “Uh, um… … What about that?”

“I’m glad that everyone in our room is nice and friendly. Ernestina was scary at first, but now she is very kind and reassuring! And Ratsby is very bright and cheerful, so he helps me a lot… … . Hehehe.”

Ah, he really has a face like Harry Potter. I’m living in a cheerful teen school drama. I can’t believe you’re already singing Yoviste.

If you think about it that way, I actually didn’t fall into a bad environment. Miss Edrose is strangely knowledgeable, and she often tells me in detail about the physiology of the demon world that I, a human commoner, may not know.

Sammy and I have now become as good friends as Finn, and we have developed a relationship where we always have deep conversations about my favorite novels and comics.

It’s true that I’ve met some really great roommates, but I’m just horny looking at them. It’s all my fault… … .

“… … Everyone in our room was nice and friendly .”

“Really? Thank goodness, I was worried about Penny because she was so clumsy, but I took a deep breath.”

I understand everything, but please don’t tell me that Penny is fluttering… … .

───

There were many seniors standing on the way to the main building after passing through the inner gate.

At first glance, you can’t tell them apart from freshmen because they wear the same uniform, but Finn said that if they have a somewhat relaxed air and look like they’re looking at freshmen passing by, they’re seniors.

‘The competition to win Soeur is fierce not only for us but also for our seniors. I’m already looking for juniors I like. Ratsby told me.’

Pin and I are alike in the way we pretend to know what we have picked up… … .

“Hey, you’re passing by! Glasses guy! Stop for a moment!”

I was startled and reflexively shrugged my shoulders. The main characters of the novel say ‘Ha?’ right here. And then I’ll counterattack with a cheat skill, but I’m the type of person who starts looking scared.

When I looked in the direction of the sound, I saw a senior with bright red skin that was almost hot pink and a sharp horn on his forehead, glaring at me with eyes burning yellow like electric current.

The hair is a pale silver color with a bluish tint. Although it has a characteristic appearance, the moment I was unable to figure out its identity, Finn was right next to me and said, ‘Oh, it’s a demon.’ By muttering, I was able to find out what the species was.

Speaking of demons, it is another race that is rare enough to be considered ‘legendary’!

Even if there are cases where elves live in the forests of Earth, the demons do not come out of the other world at all and live there forever, so ordinary humans cannot see them unless they go on a business trip to the demon world.

because? This is because they are treated as nobles in this world anyway. They say they break away from Joseon if they make money, but it is the same logic that conglomerates never leave Korea.

In the first place, the Demon King’s race is the Demon Race. There is definitely an atmosphere similar to the plaster statue of the Demon King Marina standing in the flower bed behind the demon senior. Horns, pointed tails, etc.

By the way, I was pointed out from the morning of the first day of orientation, so I would like to avoid that… … ! No, but maybe it’s not me?

I quickly looked around to see if there was anyone else with glasses besides me.

“I called. Are you dissatisfied? ” Still, seeing me confused about the object and looking lost, one more thing came out. “Yes, you. you. Who else is there besides you?”

There will be nothing more absurd in life than the shouting, ‘There is someone else besides you.’ There are a lot of people besides me, so take a look around.

… … But now even the situation is like, ‘Yes, it’s you. Penny Dickens.’ He seems to be saying this clearly.

Everyone was looking at me, including Finn, who covered his mouth in shock, as well as seniors and freshmen passing by, and even the statue of Marina standing in the flower bed.

The demon senior is walking straight towards me while stroking. Any way you look at it, it looks like a male devil, so it doesn’t fit at all in an academy with such a pious and old-fashioned atmosphere… … .

Perhaps this is what best fits the image of a model student at Labyrinthos Academy, which trains Majegan… … . What happens from now on?

“Hold it on.”

Then, the demon senior handed me the bag he was holding. I was scared because I thought he was going to lift me and kick or hit me, but I accepted it.

Wait, the taste is quite different, but this development… … .

“Tie is crooked, dude.”

No, that’s it!!

No, if you parody that in a gag novel like this, you will be beaten by 990 million Lily readers around the world… … !

Out of conscientiousness, I didn’t even add the lily tag to my work! I have to somehow shake off the demon senior before he reaches for my tie!

“That, that… … Ugh, ugh… … .” So, without realizing it, I screamed with all my might. “Stop it──!!!”

ah.

The gloomy eyes, which were either snake eyes or burning thunderclouds, stopped looking in this direction. Now that I look at it, the place where the white should be is pitch black.

“… … Huh?”

“Ah, no, that… … Well, I… … oh… … Ah… … .”

ruined. Instead of saying ‘Be safe’ to a senior, he said ‘Stop it’ to the person who was adjusting his clothes.

If you confront a senior on the first day of orientation, word will spread throughout the school that you are a rude new student, and you will be singled out. In the worst case, you will be stuffed into the community for saying what the MZ generation is up to.

“Ha, fun… … .”

If the eyes that radiate fierce anger are lightning shining through dark clouds, the atmosphere around me and others is like a torrential downpour. Even though the blue sky is full of sunshine.

And only at these times did Finn show his I temperament, activating his protective colors and blending in perfectly with the buildings and clouds in the background. It’s a chameleon, not a dragon.

I was literally blinded by the thought that I was heading down a path that would ruin everything. Even in previous academies, interpersonal relationships were not always smooth, but this time it was truly at the speedrun level.

“Hi, sorry, sorry, sorry… … !”

The demon senior spoke after quietly glaring at me for a long time, when I was almost on the verge of crying. “Hey, you. What is your name?”

“Yes, yes. Penny Dickens… … It is said that ”

The demon senior roughly snatched the bag from my hand and turned around. With each movement, I felt a quiet anger like thunder roaring in the distance.

“Remember the name InContinentia Virgilia. And after the entrance ceremony… … Don’t go anywhere, but come to the second-year Belial class. Let’s wait and see… … !”

Fucked! It’s a challenge! Ahhh… … . What will happen to my life? Finn, help me… … !
