A little later, I finished thinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, I’d like her to be pretty. And maybe… I’d like a girl who could take care of me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Someone who takes care of you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I feel good when someone takes care of me. Like when you brought me a lunchbox thinking of me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce seemed to get in a good mood and smirked. Her subtle smile was lovely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And an audacious woman. Who’s unpredictable.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sounds childish. You’ll get bored of such a woman quickly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Huh?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I spoke while thinking of Dorothy, and Luce’s expression hardened dramatically before she answered with firm resolve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then what’s your ideal type?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…I don’t have one.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s boring.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yeah, it is.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were someone else, I would have told them not to lie, but since Luce had social anxiety, it made sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We finished the monotonous conversation and entered our classroom. I climbed the stairs and sat in the middle seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, Luce sat right behind me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why are you sitting there?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I feel like sitting here today.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was usually a strange girl, but when she acted out of the ordinary, there was a hidden meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like she sat behind me to carefully observe my behavior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as I sat down, I could feel a piercing gaze on the back of my head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grnnn… mmm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ciel, who had been hugging an incredibly comfortable pillow since morning, suddenly lifted her head. It was as if she sensed Luce and me sitting down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ciel looked our way, and her sleepy eyes quickly became lively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She seemed intrigued, imagining all sorts of things about Luce sitting behind me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaya glanced at Luce and then focused on preparing for class, relieved that Luce didn’t sit next to me and intended to focus on the lesson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isaac.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why… huh!?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, Luce grabbed my shoulder and pulled me towards her. When the back of my head hit the desk, I saw Luce looking down at me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce put something in my mouth. A sweet taste spread on the tip of my tongue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wanted to give you chocolate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I get that… but don’t you think you’re giving it too forcefully?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I chewed the chocolate Luce put in my mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How should I put it, it felt like a funny meme I saw on the internet in a previous life. It was like a baby grabbing a bird by the back of its head and yanking it down to force-feed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce’s rose-gold hair slid down and tickled my cheek. She elegantly tucked her hair behind her ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes curved gently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Was that audacious enough?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said it in a seductive voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why is she doing this again…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, wait! What are you doing right now?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaya jumped up from her seat, furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right, what is she doing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce glanced at Kaya and then locked eyes with me again with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t ignore me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaya squeezed her eyes shut and shouted until her face turned red and blue, but Luce ignored her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here we go again… Annoying bitches.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the back seat, Lisetta, who was sitting insolently with her legs on the desk and chair tilted back, sighed deeply as if she was tired of it all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the classroom door opened and a middle-aged female professor stepped in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Professor Daisy arrives.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kaya gasped at the professor’s entrance, glared at Luce for a moment, and then sat down. I also lifted my head away from Luce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why is she here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m seeing all sorts of things as soon as I arrive. You all seem to be wondering why I’m here. Let me explain,” Professor Daisy said in a sharp tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Daisy said in a sharp voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Professor Philip Meltron has some personal matters to attend to, so you won’t see him for a while.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, Professor Daisy, will you be teaching us instead…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Daisy nodded at Kaya’s question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh, that’s nice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She teaches classes in a fun and engaging way. The most regrettable thing about leaving class B was not being able to attend Professor Daisy’s classes anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, it didn’t mean that Professor Philip couldn’t teach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, not like I could say anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In ❰Magic Knight of Märchen❱, Ian was in Class B until Semester 2 Year 2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, I can’t cover all of the Professor’s classes by myself. Some classes will be replaced by other professors or part-time lecturers. And…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Daisy glared at me sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The moment I see anything resembling romantic behavior in front of me, I’ll deduct points mercilessly. I’ll let the earlier offense slide since it’s the first time, but be careful from now on.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For reference, Professor Daisy was an old maid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***During break time, while reading a book in the library, I started to feel sleepy. My head nodded and my eyes blinked involuntarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was about to close my eyes for a moment when a soft hand touched my forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before I knew it, Luce had approached me like an assassin. She gently pushed the back of my head and made her hand a pillow for me on the desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…What is this now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll be your hand pillow.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While I was familiar with using an arm pillow, it was my first time using a hand pillow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lullaby, lullaby…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce whispered in a sweet tone as she gently patted my back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…What are you doing?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You look sleepy, Isaac.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t it usually an arm pillow? No, that’s not the point…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you have a problem with Luce’s hand pillow?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I subtly turned my eyes. I could feel the other students sneaking glances at us. That woke me up completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is she trying to take care of me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like when she gave me the chocolate earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed she had reinterpreted my ideal type in her own way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I pushed away Luce’s hand from the back of my head and lifted my head. Luce tilted her head and removed her hand pillow from the desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thanks. It was very effective in waking me up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce squinted her eyes and puffed her cheeks, seemingly annoyed by my words. Her attempt at being considerate had not gone as planned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finding it cute, I pressed her cheek, and air hissed out of her mouth like a pufferfish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During lunchtime, Luce suggested that we eat together on a bench instead of at the academy cafeteria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I saw Eve hiding behind a tree, creepily spying on me. She seemed hesitant to approach because of Luce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll have to find her later when I have time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ll feed you. Open your mouth.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce insisted on feeding me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I said I’d eat it myself, Luce made a sulky face, so I ended up eating the food she offered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After I finished my business in the men’s restroom…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did it go well?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce greeted me, standing by the wall at the entrance of the men’s restroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Passing students stared at Luce with strange looks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boys who came out of the men’s restroom after me saw Luce, were startled. They sneaked away while casting wary glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You were in the restroom for quite a while. It’s not good for your health. If you take this, you’ll feel better… Isaac?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was at a loss for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I simply lacked the ability to speak at the current moment. She was clearly trying to emulate my ideal type.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh, thanks…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce smiled with satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>***In the Class A classroom, just before the last class started, Luce intently watched me from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luce, who often felt repulsed by others, didn’t know how to treat friends or lovers properly because she had avoided relationships.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, she acted like a lover, which was troublesome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that she was sure of her feelings, she cared for me to the point of making me uncomfortable. Luce’s immaturity was evident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if I like being taken care of, this is way too much…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anything excessive inevitably becomes a burden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If someone like Luce had acted this way when I was in school, I might have confessed right away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the current situation, it only increased the weight on my shoulders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isaac, are you uncomfortable somewhere?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, why?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It looks like it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She noticed things like that eerily well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just before class started, the classroom door opened, and two adults entered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was Professor Daisy and the other was a man I had never seen before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An adult man with neatly groomed brown hair, wearing a pristine robe. His flawless white skin and playful smile were striking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mouth was long. To exaggerate, it looked like it could reach his ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment I saw him, I held my breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Say hello. This is ‘Ronzainus Holland’, a part-time Instructor invited to teach here. He’s quite capable. He will be substituting for Professor Philip Meltron’s Study of Magic Circle Analysis class for a while. If you get any ideas just because he’s handsome, I won’t let it slide.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Daisy solemnly introduced the brown-haired man, Ronzainus Holland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instructor Ron stepped forward and scanned the Class A students, including me, with his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he slowly walked to the side, showing a confident smile to the Class A students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Nice to meet you, top students of the Empire.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instructor Ron greeted us arrogantly, raising both arms slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Consider it an honor to meet me. I will drill the difficult theories of strategic law analysis into your heads. If you listen to my lessons, I guarantee you’ll achieve the best results.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Class A students glared at Instructor Ron. Even Ciel, who had been dozing off just a moment ago, lifted her head and joined in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The students in Class A all possessed incredible talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They took classes to receive systematic education from academy professors who were well-versed in magical theory and knowledge, but in terms of combat, they each boasted great strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why no professor dared to be arrogant in front of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Ron’s arrogance suddenly felt out of place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And Ice Sovereign…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instructor Ron stopped walking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze fixed on me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Given the circumstances, I can adress you casually, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I simply nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron climbed the stairs and approached me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know why you’re attending classes at an academy like this… but let’s get along for a while, okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron extended his hand to me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I quietly looked into Ron’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes… pleased to meet you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I smiled kindly and shook his extended hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lv: 0\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Race: Heavenly Being\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elements: Light, Immortality\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Danger Level: ?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Psychology: [ ■■■ ]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We shook hands quite ordinarily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>:\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1830,"2026-06-05T21:55:37.925Z",1,"novelbin.me","0cb1e7be68e08a04539084e9dfecc2f7ee20b138740f65984c941af75677933f","the-academy-s-weakest-became-a-demon-limited-hun-chapter-280","the-academy-s-weakest-became-a-demon-limited-hun-chapter-278",377,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-academy-s-weakest-became-a-demon-limited-hun-cover.jpg"]
