I Got Reincarnated As A Demon Princess

Chapter 5 : Their First Mission

The daylight beamed into the letter principal Aiwell held.

"Principal, what shall you do?" Crisella asked.

"While it is risky to send my students again on a mission, a request from an old colleague is an opportunity for me to thank him for what he has done for me in the past. Despite the fact that it won't be like any of their missions before, it'll be one that would improve their skills. We'll send Professor Slack to keep an eye on them from afar. Plus..a promise is a promise. Besides hehe that idiot finally accepted my nickname for him." the principal said.

He cleared his throat and continued.

"According to the report, an estimate of 200 goblins attacked the village. Even though goblins are the weakest types of demon, in numbers they are strong and the possibility of goblin king still remains due to the mass number of goblins. If that is true then a question of why will rise. Goblins are normally dumb and only listen to their leader, so if a goblin king exists.."

Crisella's forehead wrinkled after she realized what the principal meant.

"T-the goblin king is ordering them."

Principal Aiwell nodded.

"We don't know if the demon kingdom will send recruits to stop the goblins but it's better to take precautions within our own hands."

"Yes, sir." Crisella said and was about to walk out of the room but stopped.

"Do we... tell HER?"

"Hm.. no. It's too risky. The child has just adjusted to her new life here. If she finds out we are to slaughter her people due to our own gain, who knows what will happen. For now, let her enjoy her time in the Academy."

Kendra and Blythe stared intently on their books, reading the climax while their chest pounded for every word they read. They both sighed in relief as they closed the book.

"That was so close. I thought she'd die!"

"Me, too. The plot in the book thicken so much it gets me excited to read the last book.."

"Rigghht?? It's so cool! I wish Taka would learn to love reading. I mean, it's fun to talk with you, Kendra, and read about it but it would be loads of fun if there's a ton of us!"

"I don't really get it but I do want my brother to love reading the same way I do. Although, these days, he seem to visit the library more often so, he might actually think about going into the hobby! And if Blythe thinks its fun, then I think it would be fun, too." Kendra smiled at Blythe.

"Kendra.."

Blythe's eyes sparkled as she hugged Kendra tightly.

"Ah! I forgot! I have to pass my essay from Professor Chrome's class since I finished it so late that when I was about to pass, everyone else was already on their way out and professor Chrome already went back to his office. I'll see you on Monday, Kendra!" Blythe rushed and left Kendra in the garden.

Crap. I'm so late. Professor Chrome is gonna kill me. And to think he already hates me for no reason.

Blythe ran to the office but suddenly bumped into a guy which made them both stumble.

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean-" Blythe explained trying to help the guy stand up.

"Tch." he glared, refusing to accept Blythe's help.

"Duke, everyone is waiti- huh?" A guy with an emotionless face approached them.

"I was on my way already." He said walking away with the other guy.
