-Wenar Academy, Hachi-gatsu 16, 7567-
~Momoe-chan~
Hi! Hi! Momoe is here!
It has been awhile since the last time I spoke to my inner mind. It's been very hectic around in the academy since five days ago. Why, you ask? Let's just say there was a big commotion with adventures getting dispatched along with armies from the other kingdoms to subjugate undeads that flooded into the Xervy kingdom.
The scholars in our academy are speculating the possibility of an undead king rising. I read that the undead king is an alpha ranked monster, so by itself it's quiet weak. But it is able to command an army of undead, which are around gamma class. Because of that it requires around twenty sigma class adventurers to subjugate the undead king, which the Kingdom of Xervy did not have. Yeah, I used the past tense just now. The king must have died in the kingdom along with the kingdom itself. I heard that the prince, the weirdo who babbled nonsense about me becoming his slave, left our academy for his upcoming birthday, the day before the attack… Poor kid, I guess Karma is real…
To respect the dead in the kingdom, the academy stopped the class for five whole days. This also meant we had to wait for our familiar summoning until five days later. It's not that I didn't feel bad for the kingdom's innocent civilians but come on! They practiced slavery! Okay… I'm being kinda bias here… Let's leave it at that.
Today is finally the day the students in summoning class bring forth their familiar from the summoning circle. Now here is a quick lesson taught to us by professor Muro, a stout dwarf man with a short beard and grouch face. Let me quote him exactly, ahem...
“Now then class, there is two types of summoning magic in our world. First is what everyone of you snot faced little kids think of when we talk about summoning magic, circle summoning. The basic magic where you summon a monster that appears from magic circle for you to command.
The second, which is much more elegant, known as familiar summoning. Now what's the difference between the two? Well think ya morons! The first is a summon that creates a weaker version of the original monster with no intellects. Also they disappear once ya run out of mana! Now as for the familiar summoning, it's the complete opposite of the regular old circle summoning.
Ya make a triple layered summoning circle, place your mana into it. Your flow of mana will attract certain types of monsters or spirits who are willing to serve ya. When the contract ends through show of affectionate bond such as hugs, kiss on the cheek, or even a simple gesture of friendship will bond your familiar to you and you become life long companions. As for the circle, don't worry about it, we have one set up outside. It's outside cause a student from five years ago summoned a giant killer elephant destroyed the summoning classroom and several others. I had to pay for the reparation and I ain't doin’ it again. *Throws a piece of chalk* Mr. Saito! If yer gonna fall in class, do it in the hallway while holding two bucket of water as a punishment!” Is exactly what he said.
Currently, Oneesama and I are in the magic combat class with professor Yomi. Professor Yomi is a middle aged woman with well toned muscle. Even though she has some lean muscles, she still has the classic feature of an elf with her elegant and dainty body, long pointed ears, and strawberry blond hair in a bulb.
It has been quiet boring in other classes where everything is too easy for me. Even the mandatory classes we all have to take every forth day, such as language arts, math, and history, are too easy for the two of us. The headmaster is already looking for a solution to our boredom since there is nothing else the school can teach us but we are too young to graduate. I mean even if it's a magic academy, it's still a school so they can't just let us leave in one year after we started attending it.
According to the school handbook, a student must take classes to obtain minimum amount of credit in order to graduate after their eighth year. I guess the system is similar to American high school and college.
So the headmaster proposed two plans to keep me and Oneesama busy. First was, as I already mentioned, becoming a professor for the next eight years. Second, attend the knight section of the academy where Kei-kun is studying. Hmm… I know Oneesama doesn't want to teach since she hates talking. Well, then again, she started to speak to people more often, is this what they call growing older and mature? Nah, we were highschoolers in our previous life so I doubt it.
So I guess teaching in the academy for few years aren't too bad? But what if the students won't listen to me, do I beat them up? Or do I do nothing? With my temper, I might beat them up… I should warn the headmaster about that possibility.
This is so complicated. In any case, I don't have anymore classes to take after this year, which is making things complicated for the headmaster to have a first year student who learned everything available within the first several days after school began. Oops, sorry headmaster, I caused you some major migraines.
But I wasn't sorry when I found him peeking into the girl’s shower room and struck lightning bolt at him.
The pervy old man thought he could sneak a peak during nighttime two days ago. I saw him sneaking close by so I called in Ochiai-San, whom I knew I could rely on, struck the old pervert with lightning magic then froze everything below his head, I didn't want to kill him even though he deserves to die for peeking but I was a bit close to think about killing him. I let Ochiai-San bring him to professor Harada, headmaster’s assistant, to detain him.
Now where was I… Oh, yeah, I'm in the magic combat class, my thought went astray for a sec. Right now Roku-kun is charging toward me while covering himself with the enhancement spell, iron body. I nimbly, dodge to the side, went behind him, and electrocuted him. His big bear-like body fell down with a loud thump. I thought the ground shook but that must be just my imagination since he is the same age as me.
Oh my, I put a little too much mana into that attack. I wanted our match to last a little longer…
“Roku-kun, are you okay, Nyah?”(me)
I stretched my hand out toward him so that he can rise on his feet again.
“Yes, this one is fine. This one’s body is very sturdy so the president doesn't have to worry about hurting this one.”(Roku).
The burly third seat of our year is very reliable secretary even if he looks like a brut-*cough* rough man. Event though he is the third strongest in our class, he does not have any arrogant bone in his body.
He is also very good at handling student council paper work and without him, I don't think we would have gotten things done this past few days, which is apparently the busiest time for the student council do to the beginning of the new semester.
I really doubt I could do all the things he does in our council meeting even with my photographic memory and past life experience. He is an admirable man.
One curious thing about him though, he always refers himself in third person, I wonder why?
The class ended shortly, and we meet up with Toshiaki-kun, the fifth seat if you don't remember, and headed toward the summoning class’ personal practice area.
“Um… President, that's the wrong direction…”(Toshiaki)
“Urr… I knew that, Nyah.”(me)
Again, I was about to take the opposite direction from our destination. Maybe I should walk in the opposite direction of where my mind is telling me to go.
<…>(me)
As we walk toward our destination, we saw professor Muro on all fours trying to make sure the summoning circle has not been tempered with. Without trying to disturb his work, we headed toward the other students.
Of course, no one greets us and looks at us with a mixture of awe and fear(?)
After finishing his circle, professor Muro spoke to our class.
“Alright, little kiddies, let's begin our lesson. We are going by last name, so line up and when you get into the familiar circle, pour your mana in. It's simple. No incantation, no nothing.”(Muro)
So one by one the students walked into the circle to summon his or her familiar, which arranged from a turtle like creatures to a slime. Toshiaki-kun walked in before me and he summoned a two headed lion.
“Miss Takasugi, leave the egg with me for now.”(Muro)
I handed my egg, which I keep around everyday with me, to professor Muro
Now I'm walking forward to summon my familiar. I strolled inside the circle and poured my mana in. Strangely, not like the others, nothing gets summoned immediately. I could feel my mana draining, but I don't understand why nothing is happening.
“Miss Takasugi, come out of the circle and try again after you replenish your mana.”(Muro)
I do as the professor says and come out of the circle. I would have to wait again until everyone is done. This is embarrassing, even though I'm supposed to be the archmage, I can't even do a simple familiar summoning.
There is a murmur in the crowd as students spoke excitedly toward each other. It's not that I care what others think, but as Oneesama’s Valkyrie, this is beyond humiliation.
I guess my ears drooped down from disappointment because Oneesama came toward me to cheer me up before summoning.
After she spent sufficient amount of time, Oneesama went into the circle to summon her familiar. Her mana drained for around five second an a white phenix appeared. Professor became very excited to see a variant of a phenix.
One by one, everyone summoned a familiar without a problem, so what about me?

Everyone finished and professor Muro motioned for me to try again. I don't want to go back in the circle…
I went in the circle once again and poured my mana into it. I think I put in at less twice as much mana as I did before and the circle started to turn crimson red.
“M-miss Takasugi! Stop the summoning right now!”(Muro)
Before I can stop however, the circle glowed brightly and the light filled the whole field. The blinding light forced everyone to look away, and when it faded a figure stood in front of me.
A handsome bishoujo butler with bright red eyes, which reminds me of oneesama’s eyes, and lion mane like blond hair kneeled down while looking up at me.
“I have come to answer your call, mistress. I have tried to appear by your side when you first called me but the connection ended shortly not enough for me to cross. Please scold this humble servant for not being efficient.”(???)
“Um… It's fine, Nyah?”(me)
“Thank you for your benevolence, milady. Let me introduce myself, I am called Geoffrey, pleased to finally meet you.”(Geoffrey)
“S-same here, Nyah”(me)
In a sudden motion, Geoffrey kissed me in the lips… Nope I'm dreaming, this never happened! Lalalala I can't hear anything. That kiss did not count, it was a familiar bonding ceremony. Yup, that was not an intimate kiss.
My face is boiling hot, what the heck?!
Professor Muro walks in with a look of astonishment.
“Miss Takasugi! What is this?! How did you summon a human?!”(Muro)
The whole field turned dark and sudden rush of bloodlust started to emit through Geoffrey. He glared at my professor with an outraged expression. His red eyes glowed brightly like flames and his veins started to pop out.
“Insolent mortal! You dare show hostility toward my mistress?!”(Geoffrey)
I am not the one on the receiving end of the bloodlust but I still tremble at the pressure. I am pretty sure he is stronger than me. I believe he is at the level of our demon lord Sensei.
Professor Muro could not stand the pressure and fainted. Before he drop to the ground, I took back my egg so that it won't break.
“G-geoffrey, calm down, Nyah!”(me)
“But, mistress, this weak mortal dared to insult you.”(Geoffrey)
He pointed at the figure of the professor who now has foam coming out of his mouth
“It's fine, stop now, Nyah”(me)
“As you wish, milady.”(Geoffrey)
He bowed his head and the bloodlust that filled the room dissipated. I signed in relief and others do the same.
I could see that everyone besides Oneesama have pale faces and are shivering like a leaf.
Oneesama walks forward, and Geoffrey gets back on guard. Oneesama looks at him with a cold smile and he shivered(?)
“Milady, please stay behind me, that creature that's coming toward us is dangerous.”(Geoffrey)
Eh? What is he talking about?
“Um, Geoffrey, she is my Oneesama, Nyah.”(me)
His eyes widen and he goes into a dogeza.
“I apologize for my insolence mistress’ Oneesama.”(Geoffrey)
“It's fine, so get up. We have class next period.”(Oneesama)
“Yes”(Geoffrey)
“Oh, I have a question, Nyah. A familiar is supposed to be a monster, so what type are you, Nyah?”(me).
“It is my mistake for not explaining what I am to you. Please forgive your ever so humble servant.”(Geoffrey)
“It's fine, Nyah.”(me)
“I am what the mortals in this world calls the greater archdevil.”(Geoffrey)
Greater archdevil…. Huh? THE FREAKING GREATER ARCHDEVIL?! The omega class monster?! Why the heck is my familiar more OP than me?!
“Hahaha, Geoffrey, do you mind showing me your status, Nyah?”(me)
“Yes, of course, milady.”(Geoffrey)
He uses a spell to allow me to look at his status.

Holy crap! I almost pissed my pants. This guy is much more dangerous than Maou Sensei. I think he can destroy a kingdom by himself if he felt like it. Now this monster is my familiar… What if he betrays me?! It might be the end for this world, holy crap!
Alright, act normal Momoe! This guy is your familiar, no need to be scared. Stay strong!
“That is an excellent stats, Nyah”(me)
“Thank you very much, milady. This humble servant of yours is very satisfied by your praise. I shall protect milady with my life.”(Geoffrey)
Okay… He doesn't seem to be lying. He does act royal to me so there is no problem I guess? I mean he could have crushed me with his pressure like a fly, but he hasn't yet.
“Milady, your complexion doesn't look so well, might I suggest you sleep in your dorm?”(Geoffrey)
Wait, did he just say dorm, how does he know we are in school?
“Geoffrey, how did you know this was a school, Nyah?”(me)
“When our bond was placed, I received your memory of this world, so I have learned many things. This is same for all of the familiars.”(Geoffrey)
Wait, that means he knows my fighting capability and my weaknesses...
“U-um… Geoffrey, you do know you are extremely strong compared to me, Nyah? A-are you okay with serving someone as weak as me, Nyah?”(me)
“I already understood from the beginning the difference, however, I came to serve milady when I was summoned and I intend on serving you until death.”(Geoffrey)
I smiled in relief and looked at him in a new light. Instead of viewing him as a potential enemy, I now see him as a very strong ally.
“Thank you, Nyah”(me)
Geoffrey bows his head wordlessly, but I think he is happy.
Geoffrey, Oneesama, her phenix, which perched on her shoulder, and I went to our next class which is the advance magic theory class.
“Milady, forgive my insolence but… You are going the wrong way…”(Geoffrey)
Seriously?! Even my sinew servant who never been to the academy is telling me I'm going the wrong direction. I feel like crying right now.
~Kei’s P.o.V~
“Kei-kun~”(Tamasine)
“Dude, you sound really gross right now. Cut that out.”(Me)
Tamasine leans forward and he asks a question which seems to be the question everyone in our lunch table wanted to ask.
“Did you hear the rumor about how the Xervy kingdom really fell?”(Tamasine)
“What are you talking about?”(me)
“I thought you would know since you are pretty close with the Goddess. I heard the several days before the kingdom ended, the kingdom’s idiot prince went up to the goddess and told her to be his slave. I heard she personally beat him up for it.”(Tamasine)
“Yeah, I heard Momoe-San beat him up. Nani Ka?(so what?)”(me)
“Well, people are thinking that the goddess and her guardian angel had a role in ending the kingdom, what do you think?”(Tamasine)
“Don't be ridiculous! Momoe-San would never do such thing!”(me)
“Are you perhaps hinting that it is possible for her to destroy a kingdom though?”(Tamasine)
“T-that's…”(Me)
Before I could defend Momoe-San, a girl from a different table walked toward us.
“Hey, did you guys hear about the familiar summoning that took place today? You know the class the goddess is in.”(girl)
With one word referring to Momoe-San escaped from the girl’s mouth, people in the knight section cafeteria gathered.
“Huh? What happened?”(Tamasine)
“I heard from one of my friend in the class that the goddess summoned a GreaterArchdevil!”(girl)
“What?! That's an omega class monster right?!”(random person #1)
“Holy mother of gods, one of does can kill off everything in this world.”(random person #2)
“Wait! I thought the greater archdevil and omega class monsters are just legends to stop little kids from wondering aroun in the dark.”(random person #3)
Another girl walks into the crowd announcing herself as a witness.
“I was in the class with the goddess. I might be a knight but they placed me into a summoning class because the professor thought it would be befitting for a knight to have a familiar.”(Summoner girl)
“Continue! So what happened?!”(Tamasine)
“We were summoning our familiar one by one, and when the goddess’ turn came, nothing happened. So the professor told her to try again after everyone finished.
Then her guardian angel summoned a variant white phenix, which is a double sigma class monster. So we were all very surprised.
When the goddess went into the circle again, the circle glowed blood red and then there was a blinding light. When I opened my eyes again, a handsome blond butler man appeared. He knelt down in front of her and after a moment, he kissed her fondingly.”(summoner girl)
“HE DID WHAT?!”(me)
Everyone started to stare at me with dumbfounded expressions.
“*cough* urr… Continue please.”(me)
I turned bright red as I desperately tried to shift the attention back to the summoner girl. Tamasine is chuckling in a mocking manner.
“Where was I? Oh! So the Professor headed toward the two while asking in a fearful voice and the goddess’ familiar released a bloodlust strong enough to make professor faint.
I heard the conversation between the goddess and her familiar. When the goddess asked her familiar about his race, he told her that he was a Greater Archdevil. The goddess even checked his status to confirm it.”(Summoner girl)
I think everyone was surprised by the turn of event but more speculation about the Xervy kingdom actually falling from the ‘wrath of goddess’.
I better go check on Momoe-San… It's not because I'm worried about her kissing her familiar or anything like that. I mean she has the right to kiss whom she likes, right? I'm just keeping my promise of going to see her, that's all…
