The Mystery of the Ring (指輪の秘密 Yubiwa no Himitsu?) is the forty-fifth chapter of Osamu Nishi's Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun.
Summary[]
With his ring now a conscious being, Iruma tries to learn what he can about the ring and Alikred.
Plot[]
Ameri catches Iruma wearing a dress and is left stunned at the sight. Embarrassed at the situation, Iruma attempts to explain that his attire was a result of talking about magic with his ring which only makes Ameri more anxious and causes her to leave. Iruma becomes upset at Alikred for not appearing to Ameri but the little spirit explains that, because he is an "unknown object" to most, he wants to keep his presence quiet until he is sure others will not try to experiment on him.
He then tries to assure Iruma that Ameri will forget the matter so long as Iruma does not bring it up. Iruma feels better at hearing this suggestion but decides it's still better to try to figure out all he can about the ring and decides to visit Sullivan for potential answers. Unfortunately, because he's never heard of such a situation before, Sullivan doesn't believe Iruma's story and thinks he just saw something odd due to weariness that causes Sullivan and Opera to put Iruma down for a nap.
Later in the school library, Iruma is looking through books to try to locate any information he can about the Gluttonous Feeder Ring. So far, he has only been able to find information that he already knows and all Alikred can offer was how hungry he was when he had first appeared. This thought continues when Alikred states that he does not remember his involvement in other activities, such as creating the cherry blossom tree and when Iruma used magic when training for the Cannonball tournament.
Iruma asks Alikred what his earliest conscious memory is. Alikred answers that it was when he had dragged Iruma to Kirio in what he felt was a clear warning, but Iruma states was anything but clear. With Alikred himself unsure as to how and why he suddenly changed, Iruma feels cornered about what to do next when he hears Alikred singing about the fireworks show they had put on. This causes him to get a sudden realization and draw up a timeline involving everything that's happened since Iruma came into possession of the ring. With a clearer picture now before them, they see that Alikred became more conscious after Iruma had ranked up.
Based on this theory, Iruma thinks that Alikred will continue to develop into a more sentient being if he continues ranking up. Although Alikred agrees with the theory, he points out that others may notice their growth if this happens. However, he still agrees. When Iruma states he is embarrassed at the spirit calling him "master", they agree to call one another as Iruma and Alikred.
Although he feels things around him getting more chaotic, Iruma goes to sleep that night feeling he is getting closer to Alikred's secret.
