The Author's POV

The elective was in room B17

When I entered, the rows of the classroom were already filled with students, most of which were wearing a familiar azure blue blazer. There were about 40 first years of which 32 of them were girls. The reason for such disparity in gender probably had to do with the class president's bewitching appearance.

After glancing at the room for a couple of seconds, I turned towards Amanda's direction and sat a few seats behind her. All the front row seats had been taken by the girls.

Sitting down, I could smell a nice rose-like scent coming from her direction promoting my nose to greedily take in the smell. After being exposed to this scent for five minutes…

An elegant young man, with nicely combed hair, entered the classroom. He had a gentle smile on his face, and his looks could've been considered to be on the higher end of the spectrum.

...The club president finally showed up.

Arriving in front of the podium, the young man calmly placed his stuff down and looked at all the students that had come. Smiling he said

"Nice to meet you. I'm Elijah Turner. I am very pleased by your participation in our elective, food exploration."

Elijah Turner, the current president of the elective and a third-year.

As he smiled, apart from Amanda, all the girl's faces flushed red in excitement

Rolling my eyes, I rested my head on my right arm and carefully looked at Elijah. Though the class may be ignorant about his true nature, I wasn't

Elijah Turner was a Villain and professor Thibaut's second in command. Soon, several incidents would happen in the academy, including an incident involving Amanda. Elijah would be the mastermind behind it.

Of course, I had no reason to make trouble for myself by shouting, 'This guy is a Villain alongside Professor Thibaut—!'

They'd probably glare at me and kick me out of the club.

Wasn't worth the effort.

In any case, Elijah had made a pact with a demon that was part of the charm clan, a sub-branch of the demon clan of Lust. In exchange for selling his soul to the demon, he obtained his current appearance and an ability called 'Bewitchment' which was very similar to Donna's enchantment art. The only difference was that it only worked on females, whilst Donna's worked for anyone regardless of gender or race.

Currently, his main goal should be Amanda. Being such a talented individual, alongside her impressive background, the demons highly coveted her.

That was part of the reason why his contractor was a high-ranking demon within the Charm clan despite his talent being on the lower side.

"Since today is the first day, I'll do a brief introduction about myself and what the club consists of"

His charming voice drifted across the classroom pleasantly entering everyone's ears like it was a beautiful note from a fine-tuned instrument. Instantly the eyes of the female students started shining even brighter.

"In food exploration, we research and discuss monster and plant composition. We will look at which monsters and plants are edible, and how they benefit our bodies. The topics that we will cover in this course are, monster identification, methods of cooking, poison extraction, what combinations were most optimal, and plant identification."
