**Hide and Seek** (かくれんぼ *Kakurenbo*?) is the two hundred-and-thirty-third chapter of Osamu Nishi's *Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun*.

## Summary

Sabnock Sabro overhears the announcement that more teachers are being added to the mix, which excites him, so he and his juniors prepare to go somewhere spacious to prepare for combat. But one of them, Ronron, tries to advise against it since she thinks it's too dangerous, but Sabro confidently tells her that the Demon King doesn't hide and he will protect his "subjects." With that, Ronron and the other, Pulu Puko, hold his arm as he runs off, all the while saying that they are bound to clash with the teachers at some point, so they should prepare themselves.

Elsewhere, Gaap Goemon struggles to reel in his feuding students, Roel Michel and Jig Zakumu, as they have different opinions on what course of action to take. As for Asmodeus Alice's group, Zepar Zeze is seen intensely staring at the camera. When asked by Alice, Zeze replies that it's been a while since he felt a camera focused on him. Sabnock Silvia starts making herself limber, telling a confused Alice that while she may not have strong magic, she is very sturdy, so he is free to use her as a shield. However, Alice refuses to do such a thing, instead advising her to stay behind him. Zeze also adds that she shouldn't be exposing her legs so recklessly lest men become tempted by her. Both end up making Silvia blush since they are both so handsome. Still, Alice says they should take precautions when dealing with the new teachers.

The teachers, led by Buer Blushenko, are told to do whatever they please but do communicate, which Atori says is very laid back, and Marbas March comments that it is very demon-like. But they are to remember the ground rules: stay on the assigned patrol route, and if they encounter an ongoing battle, do not join in. The Psychiatry teacher, Murmur Tsumuru, hopes to clash with Ix Elizabetta, claiming it's because he wants to experience her psychological magic, *not* because she's cute. The tactics teacher, Ipos Ichou, says he wants to face off against Allocer Schneider because of his intellect. Atori asks March who he wants to face, to which he says that he has a relative, but Marbas thinks that he wouldn't want to run into him, so he asks who Atori wants to face. Atori says he wants to fight someone who will fight back hard. His words impress the teachers, with Ichou saying that if he wants to beat someone tough, he should fight Alice or Soi, with Soi, in particular, he believes would have a difficult time hiding his students since they are so tall. With that, Blushenko dismisses the teachers to hunt the students.

Little did they know that Soi and his students were hiding in front of them, as Soi was able to use his Bloodline Magic to hide his students, albeit he needed the proper amount of magic and imagination, which he discovered at the very last minute. As Soi tries to keep focus, he thinks back to when he was younger and found his older brother, who was hiding.

## Chapter Notes

* The teachers express their choice of the student to which they want to fight.
	+ Tsumuru wants to fight Ix Elizabeth's team. His reason is that he wants to test her physiological magic (or since they are cute).
	+ Ichou wants to fight with Allocer Schneider for his intellect.
	+ March mentions that he has a relative (Marbas F. Yabashi) in this exam, but he thinks Yabashi won't be eager to meet him.
	+ Atori says that he wants to fight with someone who will fight back hard. Due to this, Ichou tells him that he should fight with Alice or Soi if he wants someone tough.
* Soi develops his Bloodline Magic, as he can now also hide the people surrounding him (in this case, his juniors).
