"What's going on, Professor?!?" Olivia exclaimed while the others listened. Blythe laid in bed, unconscious while Vivien placed her hand on Blythe's forehead to maintain the sleeping spell Blythe was on.

"We'll wait for the principal to get here."

"Professor! Please.. Duke is unconscious and our team is injured. We at least deserve to know the truth." Olivia begged in a shaking voice as the others looked at Slack intently.

"Very well." Slack said and sat in the chair of the room while the others sat across him.

"As you all already know, Miss Ainsley is a demon and a powerful one, too. But she's not just any demon. She is the daughter of the demon king which makes her a demon princess." The people in the room looked horrified like a sudden chill went up their spines.

"After a few weeks from the peace treaty, the demon king and queen personally came knocking to my door." the voice of an old man continued Slack's explaination.

"Principal Aiwell!" Slack exclaimed.

"It's okay, Slack. I'll take it from here." Aiwell said.

"Principal.." Olivia's face looked shaken and confused.

"I'm sorry to have put you all in grave danger. It must have been a terrifying experience to you all." Aiwell said while he pat Olivia's head.

"The demon king and queen begged to let us have her educated in our school. They explained that Miss Ainsley had the powers of a prodigy magic user. They have tried their best changing from tutor after tutor so she could cope with her current level."

"But why would they enroll her in the Academy?" Taka asked.

"Let me get back to the basics of science in this world. In order for a magic user to level up, he has to improve all his attributes first. This allows the body to be capable of carrying the amount of magicules that circulates in the vessels of the user. The greater the amount of magicules is, the harder it is to take under control. In a normal person, the development of the attributes happens first in order to increase the amount of magicules in the body. But in the princess' case, her magicules developed even without increasing her attributes. In theory, if one could not contain or control the magicules, the body self destructs and the 10000 miles radius that goes down with it."

"She's a ticking time bomb." Taka said making the principal nod.

"Thankfully, she's almost up to the limiter. If she gets all her attributes to maximum, then there wouldn't be any problem with her self destructing."

"That would make her the youngest fully developed magic user in the world." Taka said.

"Exactly." Aiwell agreed.

"But why the Academy, principal? Aren't there other Academies that could teach her!?" Vivien rebeled.

"Our Academy was built to deal with this type of situation. Even though some of the professors are lower in attributes and level compared to her, they have the knowledge of thousands of spells due to the countless of ancient ruins containing treasure scrolls of travelers that have died in those places that were discovered by the Academy's faculty which makes them much powerful than her.. for now. The demon kingdom have very little land in this country due to past ancestors who have lost a lot of lands from the war. The current demon king is the only king that maintained the territories because of his wise decisions during battles. Still, he did not like the idea of harming those that are not part of the war like normal people. If he wanted to, he could have taken back the lands that were stolen from the demons but because of the innocent humans residing within those lands, he did not bother to. There is very little ground to discover new knowledge leading to a lot of demon races becoming close to extinction because of the lack of cognitive development on how to survive this world. Some of them have even devoted themselves into attacking normal humans as bandits of the demon kingdom. It's the reason guilds were formed in many different towns." Aiwell paused for a while. He noticed a familiar presence and right then, he knew who it was.
