Even though the interview wasn't published in the newspaper or other media, many high-level students, such as the student councils of the other schools and the executives of the integrated enterprise foundation, knew that Tamazuki had become the rank 1st on the Seidoukan.
Many thought that the Seidoukan was lucky, and the Ginga as the parent of the Seidoukan, was happy since Tamazuki brought them a lot of traffic and attention, which was good for the company.
Yet, one person wasn't happy.
Claudia's father, who knew that his daughter was close to a scoundrel, was furious, thinking that his lovely daughter had been robbed by a bandit!
Meanwhile, Claudia's mother was rather calm and didn't voice her opinion. Still, whether Claudia really loved Tamazuki or not, she wasn't sure, but her daughter's decision gave a lot of benefit to the Seidoukan, so it was all good. Yet, if her daughter was happy, then it would be even better.
Still, without a doubt, everyone was surprised by how he could become number one on the Seidoukan in just a day. However, when the content of his interview was announced, everyone exploded.
"FUCKING BASTARD!"
"I WILL KILL HIM IN THE FESTA LATER!"
"KILL HIM! WE HAVE TO BRING TO RETURN THIS HUMILIATION!"
While the news he had become the number one surprised them, his arrogant words made them furious and clouded their thought. However, some also knew that it would be difficult to take down Tamazuki, especially when he was the rank 1ts on the Seidoukan. Still, they only thought that it was because the level of the Seidoukan had fallen so much that they were beaten by this fake King!
Yet, they had to say his arrogance and egoism were definitely on a level that he had never seen.
One often said that the Japanese people were known for their humility, yet they couldn't see a trace of humility in him!
Yet, for the enterprise, his character was a good thing since they could predict this year's Festa would be on another level.

"This bastard! Master! Let's participate in the Phoenix!" Hufeng felt that if this continued, the sacred battle on the Asterisk would be tarnished by a demon known as Tamazuki.
Meanwhile, Xinglou laughed heartily as she watched his interview. "Interesting. So fun!" She had to say that Tamazuki really knew how to enjoy life, and she really wanted him to become her disciple.
"Master?"
"Sure. If you want to join, then join. Make this festival more interesting, Hufeng!"
"Yes!" Hufeng nodded, but then he asked, "But who should I pair up with?"
Each Festa has different rules and a different number of participants. For the Phoenix Festa, the contestants need to enter as a pair.
If Hufeng wanted to enter, he should have a partner.
"How about Cecil? I have heard that the Li siblings are also going to join. Oh! This year's Festa is going to be fun! I want to join too!"
Unfortunately, she was too young, and she couldn't enter.

On the laboratory equipment with various advanced machines, which was impossible to be seen in his original world, two girls stared at the monitor, watching his interview in silence.
While one girl was speechless by his arrogance, the other laughed happily.
"Why are you laughing, Ernesta?"
"Nothing, but I just wonder why he did all of this." The girl rubbed her chin as she stared at the picture of the young man on the screen. "Do you think that he has some other purposes that he wants to achieve?"
"....."
The other girl had never thought of this and thought that this guy was just an arrogant bastard, but when she thought about it, she knew that this young man was smart, so smart that it might not be weird for him to enter Allekant Academy and become a researcher like her.
Why did she believe this? It was because she had seen his profile.
"But his existence is a good thing since as long as we defeat him, then our dream will be realized!"
"That's true."
He had attracted the attention of all the people in the whole world and became the demon king.
Then as long as one was able to defeat him, they would become a hero.

Each school showed each other a reaction, but the one with the strongest reaction would be the Saint Galahadworth Academy.
As a symbol of order, how could they bear to see someone so rampant?
"Kiii!"
In the student council room, one girl bit her thumb annoyedly as she watched the young man, who was so close to the beautiful girl with platinum blonde hair.
"How can such a scoundrel be with Claudia?! Where are Claudia's eyes?! How can she feel for a bad guy like him!"
A girl with long, curled gold hair seemed furious when she thought her childhood friend might be in a dangerous situation as she stayed with this wolf-like man.
"What if she is attacked? Ah, will she be able to refuse? Ugh... will you become an adult earlier than me?" She murmured as she stared at his picture. "But well... his face isn't that bad?"
"Laetitia, what are you murmuring there?"
"Ah, Ernest! What do you think we should do? We need to beat up this bastard!"
Laetitia showed the picture of Tamazuki to the president of the Saint Galahadworth Academy, Ernest Fairclough.
A gentleman... this was probably how one would describe what kind of man he was.
"Haha..." Ernest laughed. "But it is fun, isn't it? He is so free."
"This isn't a time to laugh! He is provoking everyone in Asterisk! How can we let him go?! Moreover, how can you laugh so freely in a time like this?!"
"Why not? It is a festival anyway. Let's make it merrier! But I have to say; he is extremely conceited since he dared to declare that he is a King on this Asterisk."
King.
However, strangely this name fits him well.
His demeanor and action clearly told everyone that he was really the King.
Undefeatable, absolute, and heroic.
Those three traits could be seen in him as if he was ready to face anything in this world.
As he had such a thought, his Orga Lux trembled as if wanting to say something to him.
"It seems that I need to take him seriously."

Dirk, who was in his office watching his interview, was quiet, but Korona, his secretary, seemed to be entranced.
"How domineering... How handsome..."
Korona somehow also wanted to do something similar since her life in the Le Wolf wasn't good, considering she was bullied all the time. Fortunately, she was taken by Dirk as secretary.
Yet, unfortunately, her mood wasn't good, especially when she could see how close Tamazuki was with Claudia.
Her idol was close to a woman; how could she be happy?
"President, what's wrong?"
However, she saw that Dirk's mood also wasn't good.
"Nothing."
Dirk shook his head and felt a bit regret since he couldn't make him transfer to the Le Wolfe, but one thing he wanted to know was why that bastard went to the Seidoukan.

In one of the cities in Europe, a certain Diva watched his interview with a hint of interest.
"A king, huh? It's been a while since I returned to the Asterisk, and this city has become more fun."
---
While many were talking about him, Tamazuki ignored them and walked with his new disciple and Claudia. He wanted to know more about the school, so he asked them to lead him on the school grounds. As for his bags? He wasn't sure, but Claudia took care of everything. Except for the bag, which was filled with various Lux that he had brought with him, the rest of his luggage was taken care of by Claudia.
"This is your exclusive training room."
As a special scholarship student and also the 1st rank of the Seidoukan, all the treatments he received wouldn't lose to any top-class athletes. There were also many other perks, but he could mention them later.
"Kirin, let's meet her tomorrow for the morning training."
"Ye-Yes, Sensei!" Kirin nodded eagerly and shyly.
Then, after they ate food together, Kirin excused herself reluctantly, leaving him and Claudia alone.
"Do you like someone younger?"
"...don't say something that will cause a misunderstanding. She is a middle school student, you know?"
"But you are a high school student!"
"....."
He suddenly realized that his relationship with Kirin wasn't as immoral as it seemed. However, he quickly threw his thoughts away, then asked, "By the way, where is my room?"
"Oh, I am sorry, but your room isn't ready yet." Claudia had a troubled expression.
"Is it under renovation?"
"Yes, you should understand, right?"
Unlike the other students who could only share their room, he got an entire floor for himself. Moreover, he asked for his room to be renovated in the Japanese style since he was more comfortable that way. As a youkai, while he had a Western type of house, he liked to stay in the Japanese style more. Moreover, as the golden boy of the Seidoukan, there was no reason to reject his request, especially with how much traffic he gave to the Seidoukan and Ginga.
"Then, where should I sleep?" Tamazuki was speechless.
"You don't need to worry. As student council president, I have solved that problem for you."
"As expected of you, Claudia." He nodded, then asked, "So where will I sleep?"
"In my room."
"...what?"
"In my room." Claudia smiled brightly. "My room is huge. You can sleep there for a while."
"...."
Wasn't this girl too aggressive?
'Wait, it seems I have become a light novel protagonist.'
However, he wasn't a light novel protagonist, and when one tried to invite a beast like him to their room, they should be ready for the consequence, right?
Claudia smiled, waiting to see his reaction, yet unexpectedly...
"Sure. Let's go to your room."
"...."
Eh?
Why did she feel something was different somehow?

In case he returns to the original world, do you think that I should add another work in his original world? If so, what "work" do you think is suitable to be added to the original world? It's just my idea, but I want to add Yuuragisou, Mieruko-chan, and Yofukashi no Uta.
By the way, you can give your opinion freely.
