School is a Legion (4)

“If you don’t have the ability anyway, it’s meaningless. Why do humans like fighting spirit so much?”

-Kuoooo!

The wyvern’s cry carried concern over what he was feeling. Kang Shin-hyuk responded by feeding the Hell Spike Wyvern ‘Hell’ a snack he had purchased from the Hero Universe.

“It’s like wearing a crown. It’s cool, but a definite burden.”

-Kooooo!

Hell’s head twisted around, and Kang Shin-hyuk wondered if those red horns were some feelers.

“Wow, woaahh…”

“It’s real; it’s the wyvern the Masked Bacchus member was riding.”

“It’s so cool… Is it a male?”

-Krrrr!

Hell sounded disgruntled as the members of the Wyvern Knights murmured to each other. Kang Shin-hyuk stroked the wyvern’s neck as he spoke.

“It’s a girl.”

“No, that appearance is completely male.”

“If you say that, you may be stabbed by Hell.”

“You understand it?!”

“When did you hear what we were talking about?”

The place where they were was the wyvern barn, a facility affiliated with the Blackwood Training Center, exclusively used by the Wyvern Knights. The facility was largely expanded, and once were only two wyverns had been able to enter, now all the spike wyverns led by Hell were kept. Kang Shin-hyuk’s identity was now known, so Hell, who recognized him as a master, didn’t need to be set aside, so she was brought here. In addition, he had calculated that if a powerful riding monster called a spike wyvern was set out as a product, it could boost the students’ enthusiasm.

“So, where has this wyvern been so far?”

Do Woojin asked what all the members wanted to but couldn’t. Kang Shin-hyuk tilted his head as he replied.

“Africa, of course.”

“This isn’t Africa…”

“What bullshit. Didn’t you see it flying?”

Do Woojin silently touched his forehead and stepped back. Kang Shin-hyuk admired the Michael Jackson-like movement, but Karen spoke up.

“It’s ridiculous that you’ve been left on that dangerous continent so far, but now you tell me it flew from there to Seoul?”

“Right.”

In addition, although Africa was dangerous, Hell was a local monster living well there with the spike wyverns in the first place. Moreover, due to Kang Shin-hyuk’s trait, Hell had even evolved, so there wasn’t much chance that such a monster would die.

“Besides, flying from Africa to Seoul… How long were you flying?”

-Koooooooo!

“We flew for about five hours and rested for a bit in the middle. What’s wrong?”

“Fast!”

“It would’ve been much faster if Hell was alone.”

-Krrrrah!

Hell naturally responded to his words. The cries were overbearing, even though it didn’t intend for them to be, so those who didn’t have high resistance were forced to step back.

“Ah, Kang Shin-hyuk is really Shin Eun-hyuk…”

“Only Shin Eun-hyuk could have such a ridiculous pet…”

“Then, is that really our leader? R?”

As the third-years spoke, Kang Shin-hyuk and Karen quieted down. Yesterday, he had officially revealed the list of Masked Bacchus members, but it was a little embarrassing to affirm it. On the other hand, Do Woojin, who had nothing to do with Masked Bacchus, nodded confidently.

“I thought it was the boss from the start. That movement with the spear was the same, but the heels were too high.”

“If you’re going to be caught with something high-heeled, why wear high-heeled shoes?”

“Isn’t it because she wanted to look tall?”

“Damn, captain!”

Eleanor appeared at that point, her bright face red.

“How are you? Are you okay?”

“Ah, you just decide you haven’t heard.”

Someone murmuring caught Eleanor’s bitter glance, and everyone quieted down. No one wanted to be pierced by Eleanor’s spear, who was now recognized as No. 6 in the world.

“Yes, I think it’s okay. Except for Mars and Meloy being scared of the newcomers.”

Kang Shin-hyuk responded accordingly (Mars was the name of the flame wyvern they had tamed before). Now, even though the two were talking plainly, no one dared interrupt. This was because they learned the two were associates of an armed group that had been active together for more than half a year.

“Oh, yeah.”

Eleanor seemed to be enjoying the atmosphere that spread, as people acknowledged her relationship with Kang Shin-hyuk. Karen stepped forward and covered Eleanor’s face as she was showing a grimy look.

“But Mars is brave. He won’t do anything forcefully, but he’ll try to protect Meloy.”

“Oh, that…”

The appearance of the A+ rank flame wyvern trying to protect Meloy from the SS-rank spike wyverns was a little touching. Of course, they didn’t have any intention of harassing Meloy or Mars, and if they really wanted to, it would take them less than three seconds to swallow them both up.

“Is it because Meloy is pregnant?”

“…Huh?”

At Kang Shin-hyuk’s words, all the people around him froze.

“What are you saying now?”

“Because Meloy is pregnant, Mars is trying harder.”

“…”

“That… pregnant…”

No one could believe his shocking remarks. No, he was suspicious that he was the only one who knew. Shin-hyuk knew the second he examined Meloy with his spiritual power.

“What the hell…?”

“No, these guys are intelligent, but they wouldn’t want to show us that. Secretly…”

“Oh, hey.”

“Shut up.”

“Then will the number of wyverns possessed by the knights increase?”

“Well, I like the spike wyverns.”

Everyone’s attention was focused on the member who made that last remark. He turned his head away quietly.

“No, it’s just that… Sorry.”

“It’s not hopeless. If you accumulate a lot of mileage, you can be recognized as the owner of a spike wyvern. It’ll be difficult because everyone wants one.”

“Just tell me honestly, there’s no hope.”

“But spike wyvern…”

Everyone was surprised. In the past, if a wyvern had grown pregnant, it would have been surprising if the whole school went crazy.

“The spike wyverns are resting here, but they aren’t members of the Wyvern Knights. In that respect, wouldn’t it be nice to be happy with the birth of the wyvern who is a member?”

“Can I see that as belonging to the knights?”

“Mars is a member, so what’s that?”

“If you keep breeding like this…”

“No, I can’t.”

“But it’s clear there are three wyvern riders in the Wyvern Knights.”

“How old does a wyvern need to be to ride?”

The members who had silently given up on their dreams began to chatter about their delusions. Kang Shin-hyuk thought the day would come for these people to join as new members of Masked Bacchus but decided to provide an independent congratulatory speech for Meloy and Mars.

“Well, as a bonus…”

He decided to put a buff on them as well, as he stretched out his hand and stroked the wyverns while infusing them with strength. He was planning on buffing the spike wyverns as much as possible, so he needed to stop that gap from widening.

“So, Eli.”

“Huh?”

“What was the royal family’s answer?”

“Come, but…”

Eleanor made it clear she had no intention of returning to England. When she returned, she was treated unfairly and would be pampered. Had she nothing to do with the royal family, she might’ve gained tremendous popularity, but Eleanor was royalty. Unless she were seated as the next queen, she would be a thread. As a princess, she had enough pride and affection for her country, but nevertheless, she couldn’t tolerate the way her life was controlled. Therefore, by discussing it with Kang Shin-hyuk, she decided to go out of England and work independently with him, to give a firm answer to those who called her. At the same time, a public announcement was made by the Masked Bacchus member R. Eleanor and R revealed that the British royal family couldn’t hold onto them.

“I just knew…”

“Wow, it’s suspicious.”

“For the time being, it might be better not to set foot on British soil… I don’t know.”

“But I can’t.”

Of course, Eleanor knew that. Kang Shin-hyuk had already made up his mind to submit to the World Prize, and…

“Then, I’ll go too.”

“Yes, well, you probably want her there.”

“What is it? What is it?”

“It’s a secret.”

“I really want to kill you.”

“Now, everyone go. The wyverns say they hate you for being noisy.”

-Kooooooooo!

Kang Shin-hyuk beckoned for the members who flocked to the wyverns to leave, and after checking their condition, withdrew himself. The spike wyverns had strengthened Shinyoung’s position once more.

“Will there really be talents who can join Masked Bacchus?”

“Here I am!”

“Yes, if it’s a porter, it might be okay.”

“A porter?! You…”

“That’s too real!”

Karen, who had constantly been appealing to join, ran out angrily. Kang Shin-hyuk grabbed her without difficulty and looked back at Do Woojin, who flinched.

“Because your ranks are similar, I think you two will act together. Do well together.”

“I’ll do well even if you don’t say it. I’m not interested in this Masked Bacchus or whatever.”

“Really? Karen is joining?”

“…You said you wouldn’t let me.”

“Huh? If Karen joins, will you join too?”

“It doesn’t matter!”

What youthful energy. Kang Shin-hyuk fussed over Do Woojin while holding onto him. Eleanor sighed anxiously as she followed behind.

There were ten days until the competition.
