The Forbidden Magic Laws of a Fallen Princess

And she can even clean those hard-to-reach corners in the room that some people can't, which is really convenient.

Wait... coming to that, I seem to have forgotten something very important these days.

I don't think I've paid Lilith and Louise their wages!

Damn it, isn't this just like using their labor for free? In that case, let's have an emergency meeting tonight to discuss their wages.

Because I don't want to become a princess who has authority but uses free labor, because if word gets out, how can I protect my reputation!

Chapter 41 Peach Demon King Teacher Miriam

That evening, I sat in the main seat at the dining table in the living room, with Lilith, Louise, and the carriage soldier sitting on either side of me.

Actually, it wasn't until we sat together now that we learned that the soldier in the carriage was named Lauda, ​​and that he had once been a poor boy from a village outside Claust.

More than a decade ago, a small unit of the Demon King's army razed his village to the ground, and the only survivor was the sleeping baby Lauda.

Therefore, he grew up in the castle and, from the age of fourteen, served as the coachman who transported Belissa and Otto, as well as feeding and training the horses in the castle.

To be honest, I felt a little embarrassed, and I didn't know how much they were paid at the castle on a regular basis. Perhaps... it must be very high.

However, they are still working at my house, even if their work isn't as regular or busy as the work at the castle.

Well, these three people are still putting in their hard work and effort, so how could they not be compensated?

However, I was so stubborn that I completely ignored this point.

So today I'm going to be frank and make things clear, and then we'll settle on the salaries of the three of them.

“Well… well, actually, the three of you have been with me for a while now, and it’s time to pay you your wages. By the way, I will pay you the same wages you were paid in the castle.”

Although I'm speaking so grandly now, I'm afraid they're already cursing me in their hearts for only bringing up wages now.

"Oh dear, what was I thinking at the time? Your Highness, you don't need to worry about these things at all."

However, Lilith, who had been quite serious just moments before, instantly broke into a smile that seemed to show great satisfaction after hearing what I said.

"Yes, we are simply following Your Highness willingly. We have long considered this place our home. Talking about money would really be too much of a mood killer."

“That’s right. In fact, I had planned to spend my whole life repaying Prince Otto for saving me when I was young. Now that Prince Otto is gone, all I can do is protect you, Princess. Only in this way can Prince Otto’s spirit rest in peace.”

"You guys..."

Hearing what the three of them said filled me with emotion, and I almost cried.

Although they don't intend to accept wages, occasional monetary or material rewards are still necessary.

Since that's the case, I will do my best as a princess to ensure that the three of them can live happily in this home.

Therefore, this issue regarding wages has been resolved, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

However, it's already late today, so I'll get some rest. Tomorrow, I'll go to the academy with Lila to participate in the third week's practical training course.

I'll also try to strike up a conversation with that light blue-haired girl, Elena, and build a relationship with her first.

In fact, the first week's basic courses and the second week's basic magic training courses were specially designed for all applicants, essentially condensing the entire three-month curriculum for normal students into these two weeks.

However, the practical course in the third week is taught by a dedicated practical course instructor.

In other words, from this day forward, theoretical and cultural classes will be reduced accordingly, and most of the time will be devoted to practical courses.

"By the way, who are our practical training instructors?"

That morning, Lila and I, the center of attention, slowly walked into the academy gates.

The main reason is that Lila, Louise, and I single-handedly wiped out dozens of criminals around Allen City without a single one of them. It also seems that some senior students living nearby witnessed the fact that it was definitely the three of us, so I don't know how the news spread.

Therefore, Lila and I became completely famous at this time.

"Um... I think it's better if you don't know."

At this moment, Lila began to tremble uncontrollably.

Could it be that this teacher is very capable, or has a terrible personality, that even a proud and stubborn child like Lila is deeply afraid of him?

This actually piqued my interest.

And so, after the first theory class ended, we all changed into outdoor shoes and began this so-called practical class.

The instant I stepped out, I seemed to see a figure that shocked me.

She had pinkish-peach hair tied in a single ponytail, and a pair of big, bright eyes on her cute doll-like face. At that moment, she stood with her hands on her hips, a forced smile on her face.

Hey, hey, hey, this is so weird! This thing looks just like Milim from a certain slime anime. If it had pigtails, it might even look better than the original.

She could actually be a monster, becoming our class's practical training instructor. That would be... a recipe for disaster.

"Look, our practical class teacher is her, named Milian Babelksi, who is also the strongest of the few court magicians in the academy, commonly known as Teacher Peach Demon. In fact, the main reason is that her teaching method is extremely terrifying. Basically, very few students who have taken her class can still be normal the next day. So, we are really unlucky that Teacher Peach Demon chose our class."

As Lila talked about her teacher, the Peach Demon King Miriam, she looked quite disappointed. It seemed that this teacher was indeed quite difficult to deal with.

However, the fact that this Peach Demon King teacher is actually a court magician surprised me.

However, she does look quite young, only around seventeen or eighteen years old. Could it be that she is also a genius magical girl?

"Haha, kids, get up and get ready for class!"

Good heavens, this guy is so similar to that great demon king who only exists in the anime, even in voice... name and personality, that's just too bizarre!

It seems that dealing with this kind of person with an unusual personality will require some very sophisticated strategies.

Fortunately, I am still injured, so I have the privilege of watching the students in my class go to their practical training sessions.

So I happily limped down on the stairs in the playground, holding a tissue under my butt, just in time to see how she could be called the Demon King.

But at that moment, Milian's big eyes suddenly turned to me.

At that moment, a chill ran through my entire body.

So this is the legendary powerful being... I hope she won't do anything outrageous to me, an injured person...

Otherwise, I hold grudges very much, yes, very much!

Chapter 42 Peach Demon King Teacher's Practical "Exercise" (Part 1)

Thankfully, the Peach Demon Queen, Ms. Miriam, only glanced at me once before turning her attention to the students who were already standing in neat rows.

I quickly patted my still-settled chest, because what had just happened was truly terrifying!

If I weren't so resilient to stress, I probably would have fainted on the spot.

However, perhaps it was because Teacher Peach saw that my leg was still bandaged and that I hadn't attended class for a week that she let me off the hook...

Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have picked up a chick and just tossed it into the line.

"Hmm, that's great. It seems everyone is really obedient. Not a single one ran away; everyone is here."

At this moment, Teacher Peach Demon probably looked around, probably counting whether any students were missing. However, she was sure there was no problem, and then she couldn't help but reveal two sharp canine teeth and a bright smile.

"In that case, let's start the practical training today. If any of you can hit me with magic, or even just graz me, that counts. Then today's practical training can end and we can disband. Otherwise..."

Instantly, Peach Demon King Teacher's aura surged, and an extremely terrifying killing intent erupted directly from her body.

"None of you will ever leave, even late at night!"

As expected, this Peach Demon King teacher is no pushover... Just think about it, she's only facing a bunch of twelve or thirteen-year-old kids. Do you really think she can use her low-level magic to fight a court magician?

Haha, that's really wishful thinking...

Let alone court magicians, even second-level magicians find it extremely difficult to hit a magician of their rank with magic...

"Hmm... As expected of Peach Demon King Teacher... Always doing some unreasonable things."

"Yes, yes, I heard that some students from the previous year didn't sleep for two days and two nights, but still couldn't catch a glimpse of Teacher Peach Demon..."

"As expected of the Demon King, the great demon..."

Instantly, the students in the class erupted in chaos.

"Alright, you bunch of brats, what are you babbling about? Hurry up and get going! If you can still make it home before sunset and have a hot meal, then hurry up and try to defeat me with your magic, hahaha!"

With that, Peach Demon King lifted his foot and stomped it hard on the ground.

Instantly, the ground began to shake violently, and a huge crater was revealed in front of all the students.

Of course, because the pit had spread over a large area, all the students were dodging around during the exam, because no one wanted to get caught in it.

It seems that this Peach Demon King teacher is actually a very powerful earth magician.

However, in the realm of magic, earth magic is basically only good at either defensive spells or earth puppet spells. I really didn't expect there to be people in this world who use this kind of attack method.

Since Peach Demon King is a court magician... and should be skilled in ancient spells rather than the kind of chuunibyou magic spells like mine, and she also possesses the cheat-like ability to chant quickly, she does seem somewhat like me who can cast spells instantly.

However, this is not instantaneous, so she will also consume an extra amount of magic power to cast a quick incantation. In fact, it is not worthwhile to just cast low-level magic.

That kick was indeed a low-level spell, and it was a low-level spell that required rapid incantation. Moreover, she didn't use a staff at all; she only relied on the magic power within her body to cast it.

This clearly demonstrates her strength.

If she were to use her wand... then absolutely everyone here could be defeated by her earth magic.

"What, are you bunch of kids such cowards? If that's the case, then if you won't attack, then I'll attack myself."

As she spoke, she strode forward quickly, stretched out her arm and aimed it at a female and male classmate who were still in a daze in front of her, bent over and slammed it down onto the ground beneath their feet.
