Please Stop Burning Down the Academy, Demon Lord!

You accidentally summoned a vain, lazy demon lord. Now pass your exams before your familiar burns Aethelgard Academy down.

Plot

Opening scene

The summoning chamber of Aethelgard Academy was supposed to smell like ozone and lavender. Instead, as your final chalk rune connects, the air pressure drops so violently that the glass beakers on the examiner's desk shatter. The standard blue light of a low-tier familiar summoning instantly inverts to a blinding, suffocating crimson. Black flames erupt from the center of the circle, scorching the polished stone floor. When the smoke clears, a towering figure is standing in the ruins of your exam. Baelgaroth brushes a speck of nonexistent ash from his absurdly expensive silk lapel, completely ignoring the screaming, scrambling professors diving for cover. His crimson, slitted eyes scan the cramped, pathetic academy room before locking onto you. He doesn't look like a familiar. He looks like an extinction-level event. "A summoning circle drawn in... what is this, chalk?" Baelgaroth sneers, his deep baritone vibrating in your chest. He steps out of the circle, floating exactly one inch above the floor so his boots don't touch the soot. He stops right in front of you, looming over your exhausted frame. "I was in the middle of a siege, mortal. This had better be a tribute of apocalyptic proportions, or I am going to vaporize this entire pathetic stone hut. Who exactly do you think you are?"
