Faculty Meeting Room.

The atmosphere was tense in the room where the faculty members who would be in charge of the first-years and the headmaster were gathered.

Ares, who was in charge of Class C of the first-years, opened his mouth.

"I will go to Class A."

At that remark, the faculty members next to him looked at Ares as if they were bewildered.

The faculty members had already been assigned to their respective classes.

Ares had also been assigned as the faculty member in charge of Class C.

However, it was natural for the faculty members to be in an uproar when he suddenly said that he would change the class he was in charge of.

The headmaster, who had been listening to Ares in silence, asked.

"Is there a reason why you suddenly want to change the class you're in charge of?"

"Yes, there is."

Ares said, meeting the headmaster's gaze.

The headmaster nodded as if to say that he would listen to the reason.

"Adel, I have confirmed that the student has been assigned to Class A."

"So?"

"I want to control him directly. There is a high probability that he will grow up to be a person who will harm the Demon Realm in the future."

"Why do you think so?"

"Because he's dangerous. When I was rolling around on the battlefield, I saw countless people with an aura similar to Adel's."

Ares paused for a moment.

Everyone listened attentively because he had a brilliant track record of preventing humans from capturing the capital in the war.

And then Ares's mouth dropped.

"That child is born with the nature of killing."

Nature of Killing.

It meant the talent and destiny of those who had no choice but to live by taking and trampling on life.

If that nature is handled well, it will not be a big problem.

But if he turns the blade against his own allies.

‘There will be great damage.’

There was one good thing.

Adel, when judged solely on power, didn't stand out as much as the children of the Seven Deadly Sins.

He was still young.

"It would be better to tame him while he can still be controlled."

So leave it to me.

As Ares finished speaking, an opposing opinion emerged.

"Aren't you paying too much attention to a half-breed?"

"That's right. Compared to the children of the Seven Deadly Sins, he was ridiculously weak. There's no need to go as far as being the faculty member in charge of him...."

Clatter.

Ares shook his head at the opposing opinions.

“Strength is not solely determined by force.”

Ares added.

The teamwork Adel had shown when subduing the Sword Saint, the boldness and composure he had displayed when making his decisive move.

Considering all of this, there was no way he was inferior to the children of the Seven Deadly Sins.

The instructors also knew this, so even those who had opposed him had no choice but to remain silent.

“That is why I wish to go. Adel needs to be watched over......”

“Wait a moment!”

Before Ares could finish speaking.

Idea, Ares's junior and the appointed instructor of Class A, slammed her desk and shot to her feet.

“Senior, do you not trust me? I'm also a worthy instructor of Sytan!”

“......That's not it, but that child is a natural-born killer.”

Ares denied it with his words, but his expression clearly showed that he did not trust Idea.

There was no way Idea would not notice Ares's subtle feelings.

“Is that to say, you do not trust me enough to entrust him to me?”

“......”

Ares could not find any more words to say and hung his head.

“I apologize if I have made you uncomfortable.”

“Really, when will you stop treating me like a child......”

Just as Idea was about to flare up her Mana in frustration.

The headmaster personally stepped forward to mediate between the two.

“That is enough.”

“But......”

“That is enough.”

The headmaster's voice carried an overwhelming pressure.

At this, a chilly atmosphere hung in the conference room as if frost had settled.

“You're always picking on me.”

Only then did Idea slump down and sit back in her chair.

After confirming that Idea had calmed down, the headmaster sighed and opened her mouth.

“I have heard the instructor's opinions. However, the classes have already been assigned. I do not think it would be beneficial to change the classes now.”

“......I understand.”

Ares accepted the headmaster's words as if he had no other choice.

Even Ares, who had fought countless battles on the battlefield, did not dare to refute the headmaster's words.

Everyone knew that despite the headmaster's childlike appearance and gentle speech, she was no different from a monster in reality.

That was why Ares decided to put aside his own opinions and listen to the headmaster's words.

Believing that the headmaster must have thought everything through.

“One thing, the instructor's words are not without merit. Instructor Idea, I would like to ask you to pay special attention to the child named Adel.”

“Yes.”

Idea, who was satisfied with the fact that she would be in charge of Class A as planned, replied in a much better voice than before.

The headmaster, who confirmed this, tapped the desk and concluded.

“Then, this concludes the meeting. Everyone, please go to your respective classes and greet the children.”

With this, the entrance exam and class assignments were all finalized.

Finally, the first class was about to begin.
