Chapter 29. I Am Well-versed in the Art of Humility

"Are you and your sacrificed companion both Tier 4?"

I brought the challenger to the infirmary, helped him treat his wounds a little, and asked.

"Yes."

After the challenger finished speaking, he sized up Cornelia and me timidly: "Are you two Tier 4... or Tier 5?"

"Tier 4, we're all Tier 4."

I waved my hand and replied faintly.

"..."

Although the challenger had all sorts of doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to voice them.

He highly suspected that at least one of Cornelia and me was Tier 5.

Even if there wasn't a Tier 5, we were the kind of geniuses who could exert Tier 5 combat power at Tier 4.

The messy state of this infirmary was probably related to these two.

Without terrifying combat power, it would be impossible to destroy the infirmary to this extent, and even make the school doctor disappear into thin air.

What he found most incredible was that these two were completely unscathed.

I asked again: "By the way, was the classroom you failed in very difficult?"

The challenger: "...At first, we didn't think it was particularly difficult, but later when we discovered its mechanics, it was really disgusting."

"Oh? Tell me its mechanics. Maybe I can go and clear it."

I seemed to be more interested, and my eyes even became a little fiery.

This was very likely an elite room.

Since the difficulty was high, the exploration progress would also be higher, and there might even be information about the boss room.

"It's better to bypass that classroom. I really don't see any hope of clearing it... I can't drag you down..."

"You tell me the mechanics first, I'll judge the difficulty myself."

I still said with full confidence, as if exuding the aura of an absolute superior.

And Cornelia next to me also had an unruffled look, her expression cold and silent, as if no strong enemy could make her expression change in the slightest.

Carefully observing the state of these two people made the challenger a little dazed, and his heartbeat unconsciously accelerated. For a moment, he even had the illusion that these two were the masters of this demon school.

This was the aura of an absolute powerhouse!

Maybe... they really could help him and his companion take revenge!

The challenger took a deep breath, gently patted his chest, and looked at Cornelia and me with a solemn expression, saying, "That was a music classroom. The mechanic is called the Demon Choir."

"The music teacher plays an instrument, and the students have to participate in the Demon Choir's singing."

"When you first enter the classroom, you can listen to the choir sing up to three times, and there is a fifteen-minute free time for independent practice."

"Next, you have to join their chorus. Once you sing incorrectly three times, it will trigger the teacher's killing mechanism."

"Attacking other students will also get you killed by the demon teacher."

This made my brows furrow slightly.

I felt that this mechanic was not particularly dark, and could even be said to be very ordinary.

It shouldn't be enough to make a Tier 4 challenger fail.

Unless they were two tone-deaf people.

"Does this game have other traps besides the surface rules?" I asked.

"...Yes! Actually, the demon teacher isn't particularly disgusting, but that damned group of demon students in the Demon Choir will ostracize new students. They seem to have a secret signal among themselves. If a new student joins the chorus, they will collectively and deliberately change the way they sing in certain places."

The challenger replied, gritting his teeth.

"And then the teacher will judge that you sang incorrectly?"

"Yes, 'right and wrong are relative, not absolute.' We only discovered this rule trap after being tricked. Even after using up all three chances, we couldn't figure out the secret signal for the variations among the demon students..."

The challenger's face was full of pain and regret, and his eyes also became red.

Hiss.

I stroked my chin, thinking.

If the mechanic was like this, I did agree that this classroom was a bit dark.

The previous rooms were all about outsmarting the teacher, but in this music classroom, even the students dared to start making trouble?

I thought those demon students were all pure and kind.

I didn't expect there to be ones with such bad character!

Bullying classmates will absolutely not be tolerated in our school!

I had to go and stop this from happening.

"Cornelia, let's go!"

"Okay."

"Wait, aren't you going to listen to the information I already know?"

The challenger asked in a panic, looking at the two of us who were ready to leave the infirmary without hesitation.

"No need, the gentlemen watching the live broadcast outside don't want to listen to such a complicated analysis of the mechanics. Just watch me reform the Demon Choir and that's it."

"...You're carrying a broadcast program?"

"Newbie streamer."

Leaving this sentence behind, Cornelia and I strode out of the infirmary, leaving only the dumbfounded challenger...

"I haven't even told them the location of the music classroom..."

"Could it be that they even got the school map?!"

"How come I've never heard of such a god..."

The challenger sat in the infirmary and muttered to himself in a daze.

...

Cornelia and I walked towards the music classroom.

Now, the corridors of the Demon Academy had completely become our back garden.

However, we were quite annoyed by the bunch of idle demon students wandering around, so we made the school resume classes.

Anyway, when we challenged the music classroom later, we would have to set the school's state to "in class."

"Cornelia, this classroom is more suitable for a solo challenge. You can wait for me at the door later."

"Okay."

As we were about to reach the music classroom, I took out a Demon Pass from my pocket and handed it to Cornelia.

We had previously looted this from the corpse of a demon teacher in a classroom that had been swept by Bach.

The broadcast room and the infirmary didn't have Demon Passes, but the teachers in the other two classrooms did.

Originally, we each had one.

Now both were in Cornelia's hands, and each could guarantee at least half an hour of safety.

A music class was only an hour long. Even if the Dean was standing right next to Cornelia, she would not be in danger while waiting outside the door.

"Cornelia, I'm going in."

"Okay, be careful."

Then I pushed open the door of the music classroom by myself and walked in.

Light instantly filled my vision.

This music classroom looked like a classical concert hall.

Unlike the dark corridors, the music classroom looked very bright. The stone pillars were carved with various lifelike paintings, and the walls seemed to be made of pure, flawless white jade.

And in front of the hall was a circular stage. The stage was covered with a thick, soft carpet. On both sides were various musical instruments, and in the center were two rows of steps on which stood twenty demon students.

It seemed this was the Demon Choir.

In this classroom, the most conspicuous was the male demon standing in front of the Demon Choir, wearing a black formal suit and gold-rimmed glasses, looking scholarly and a bit serious.

"Welcome to the music classroom."

Seemingly having noticed my arrival, the music teacher turned around and said with a calm smile.
