**The Demon I Hate** (大嫌いなアイツ *Daikirai na Aitsu*?) is the two hundred-and-ninety-eighth chapter of Osamu Nishi's *Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun*.

## Summary

Amaryllis goes to speak the Three Greats, leaving Ameri and Alice to tend to Iruma following Amaryllis's squabble with Fenrir. Iruma convinces the two that he is fine and they should mingle with others while he does some serious thinking. Though reluctant, Ameri and Alice accept Iruma's wishes, leaving him be, promising to be there should he need them.

As Iruma sits alone, he thinks about the harsh words Fenrir said to him about how he feels regarding humans. He knows it will only be a matter of time before he finds someone like him, but deep down, his words have left him very sad. Iruma gets pulled out of his thoughts by the surprise arrival of Paimon in disguise, who offers him some tea to cheer him up. Iruma graciously accepts as Paimon asks him if someone has been picking on him, and Iruma ultimately tells her that Fenrir said he hates him, which made him feel unwanted and his confidence waver.

Paimon calls Iruma an idiot for letting Fenrir's words get the better of him because, according to her, **no one** in the Demon World likes one another. She tells him that it's natural for demons to deceive and use others to survive, and several are doing it right now at this party. Paimon says getting along with others is impossible, so having a fighting spirit is more charming. To emphasize, Paimon tells Iruma about her rivalry with Bachiko (though Iruma never finds out that she is who Paimon was talking about). Paimon describes Bachiko as having no class and style, terrible taste, being cocky, temperamental, and just being very annoying to her. However, Paimon says that she feels she can truly go all out against her when climbing to the top because of those traits. In short, Paimon advises Iruma to not let someone else's hatred of him demoralize him, for it will sow the seeds of his growth.

Iruma takes Paimon's words to heart and remarks how he feels like Bachiko is cheering for him right now, even though Paimon is so different. He thanks her for talking to him, but Paimon merely says she was making idle chatter with him before revealing that she was trying to perk him out of fear that Bachiko won't give her a real challenge. A bell then rings, and Paimon leaves, but as she does, she tells Iruma that he needs to go all out when fighting someone he hates, and if he wants, he can consult her for advice again.

With that, Paimon joins the rest of the Thirteen Crowns as they prepare to announce the group's newest members.
