Chapter 39.2: Part 2

'It's not like they can't form groups at all.'

It would be fair to say that there were absolutely no half-demons who formed groups with pure-blooded beasts.

There were cases where half-demons formed groups among themselves, but they had to endure the harsh glares and insults of the demons.

So they were timid.

Even though they were clearly being treated unfairly, the half-demons didn't confront them head-on.

I suppose they didn't want to act out and become targets for the ill-tempered demons.

'Still, the intensity of the bullying doesn't seem to be as bad as I thought.'

In the past few days, I hadn't seen any half-demons getting beaten up or bullied noticeably.

Maybe it's because it's the beginning of the semester.

Or maybe it's because the animosity of the demons is focused solely on me.

'I hope they have at least a little bit of goodwill towards me.'

With a glimmer of anticipation, I approached a half-Demon.

A female student who couldn't even form a group with the half-Demons.

She was a student I remembered.

'She had healing abilities.'

She was an outstanding talent that I had wanted to recruit to my team.

I stood in front of the girl and blinked blankly.

'Her appearance is quite decent.'

Her impressive, light pink hair was lively and refreshing.

She had a bright and cute appearance, but her face looked a little gloomy.

She seemed to be intimidated by the sharp gazes of the other Demon students.

When I swept my gaze across the girl's face, she flinched.

"Hic......"

She hiccuped as our eyes met.

Her skin seemed whiter up close than it did from afar.

Of course, her appearance wasn't important to me.

The reason I was looking at her was simply to assess her level.

'The amount of mana she has in her body is not something to scoff at.'

She wasn't as good as me or Samuel, but she seemed to be in the upper-middle ranks of the class.

However, one cannot measure strength based on the total amount of mana alone.

More outstanding than her mana was her unique healing ability.

Still, it wasn't bad that she had a lot of mana.

I thought for a moment and finally made a decision.

I would put her on my team.

"What is your name?"

"Me, me?"

"Yes."

When I nodded, she answered in a trembling voice.

"My name is Luna......"

"That's a nice name. Do you know my name?"

"Yes, I do."

Luna nodded.

After all, if there was a student in Class A who didn't know my name, they must have been a spy sent from the human world.

After such a brief self-introduction, I got straight to the point.

"How about joining my team? I think we half-Demons would get along well."

"Th, that's a little......"

Luna tried to refuse my offer with a look of obvious embarrassment.

I stared at her with a pressuring gaze.

"Eek!"

Luna cowered under my gaze and hesitated.

When the pressure didn't let up, Luna reluctantly nodded.

"Ha, then do it. Same team......."

"An excellent choice."

I smirked at Luna, who was trembling.

With that, I had secured one member for my team.

The problem now was how to find the other member.

While I was lost in thought.

Stab, stab-.

Someone was poking my shoulder from behind.

I turned around and saw Fron standing there, clearing her throat.

Why did she suddenly come to me?

As I wondered inwardly.

Fron suddenly pointed at me and shouted.

"I haven't acknowledged it yet!"

"What do you mean?"

"Your position as the leader! I will definitely take it away from you. I am the one who is most suited to be the leader of the class!"

"Ah, yes."

I replied insincerely.

It seemed like she came to me because she was dissatisfied with Idea giving me the position of leader instead of her.

I was a little busy to listen to her complaints.

But even after a long time, Fron didn't leave and just stood in front of me.

Why don't you go away?

".........."

".........."

As I stared blankly for a long time, the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

In the end, Fron couldn't hold it in and sighed as she spoke.

"I heard that you haven't found all the members yet."

"Yes, that's right."

I was a little surprised.

She was surrounded by so many students, but I thought she had heard everything we were talking about.

I looked at Fron with slightly widened eyes, and she cleared her throat and spoke.

"Let's be in the same group as me."

"Hmm?"

It was a refreshing suggestion.

Fron came to me to be on the same team as me.

But there are so many students who want to be on a team with me.

Why does she want to be on a team with me?

As I wondered inwardly, Fron spread her arms wide and shouted at me.

"Come under me!"

Fron seemed to be speaking as if she thought I would accept it.

However, the words that came out of my mouth were quite different from Fron's expectations.

"......That's impossible."
