The Academy's Weakest Became A Demon-Limited Hunter

Chapter 175-176: Conspiracy (1-2)

There were many beautiful women around Isaac.

This was one of the things that had been bothering Kaya Astrea recently.

Luce Eltania and Dorothy Heartnova were already overwhelming enough...

...But with the addition of the Imperial Princess Snow White, who was known throughout the continent for her beauty, Kaya was at a loss for how to squeeze herself in.

It was an impregnable fortress.

The three girls clung to Isaac, giggling and sneering as if to mock her for not having a place to fit in as they proclaimed Isaac as theirs.

But she couldn't chase after Isaac, who was busy and always on the move.

Ever since Semester 1 Year 1, Kaya had struggled to suppress the urge to chase after Isaac after he eradicated the Ant Demon.

Isaac had told her not to follow him. As an archwizard, he'd be able to sense Kaya's approach easily. But if she approached him outright, Isaac would hate her because it would make him stand out.

Kaya was terrified of losing the affection of the one she loved.

So Kaya had been content with seeing and greeting Isaac, and sneaking away with him for the occasional tactical meetings.

But it seemed that things couldn't go on like this.

Luce Eltania ignored the students' gazes and showed affection to Isaac. It seemed like half the reason Kaya couldn't approach Issac was because of the top seat.

Especially since the disparity of her cold demeanor to others and her affectionate demeanor towards Isaac created a gap that aided her overwhelming charm. It was as if she was bestowing superiority to Isaac.

Dorothy Heartnova was a celebrity in the academy and an idol. Moreover, she was a formidable force to be reckoned with across the entire continent. She was someone who attended the academy with the goal of 'having fun' rather than learning.

Such a genius, caring for and cherishing Isaac more than anyone else, left Kaya feeling suffocated.

Princess Snow White not only held the highest status of an 'Imperial Princess' in the continent but was also arguably the most beautiful woman on the continent. Such a person was spending time with Isaac every day as his junior and mentee.

Kaya couldn't guess how much their time together would strengthen the bond between the two.

Dangerous.

Kaya felt an overwhelming sense of wariness.

"I need to come up with something."

[Countermeasures?]

Late at night in Charles Hall, the top-ranked dorm.

Kaya tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep, and she stared at the ceiling, muttering to herself.

Beside her was Dark Kaya, dressed in the same pajama, lying down and staring at her. As a personality, she was only visible through Kaya's eyes.

Then, with a flash of her bloodshot eyes and a wicked grin, Dark Kaya turned her face to the main body.

[So you're finally going to seduce Sir Isaac?]

"T-that's right...! I have to."

Kaya looked determined. A drop of cold sweat dripped down her face.

Dark Kaya blushed and gave a sheepish smile.

[I absolutely agree! You're aiming for the strategy meeting with Isaac tomorrow, right?]
