Summary
2,000 years ago, Anos and his subordinates invaded the Great Spirit Forest Aharthern to find the Great Spirit Reno. Anos's right-hand man, Shin, won a bet with Anos and was granted the ability to reincarnate. Then Kanon appeared, Anos ordered Shin to go find Reno while he deals with Kanon. In the present, the teacher announces a royal student famous for his sword skills is transferring into the academy. Anos then thwarts the teacher's attempt to sabotage the results of the academy challenge. Misa Ilioroagu, a classmate, informs Anos she is a Unitarian, dedicated to forming a fair society instead of one where royalty can abuse hybrids. Anos is intrigued to learn Melheis Boran, another Elder Demon Emperor, is a Unitarian. Anos learns Misa's royal father, unwilling to admit he had a hybrid daughter, has not spoken to her in years, except to give her half a magic sword. Anos decides to let Misa and her Unitarian classmates join his team if they prove themselves. The academy begins magic sword lessons where Anos and the transfer student, Lay Glanzudlii, are the only ones strong enough to wield magic swords. Lay asks to join Anos's team, disregarding his own royal status. Anos refuses and tells Lay and Misa to challenge him in the next team exam duel. Misha and Sasha defeat Misa and the Unitarians. Anos holds his own against Lay using just a tree branch while Lay starts to remember having dueled Anos before. Anos finally claims victory and becomes convinced Lay is Shin's reincarnation. Lay promises to defeat Anos at their next duel.

Anime Differences

 * In the anime, Lay first appears in the Demon Sword Training Lesson and not in the classroom.
 * In the light novel, both Gaios and Ydol are able to trade blows with their respective opponents, resulting in their demon swords being shattered. But in the anime, the two demon emperors were effortlessly knocked out and thus their swords were left intact.
