Chapter 264 - Spring Again (1)
[Beauty Mage – Wow, so this is the person who ranked first in the popular vote last year?]
[Now Nougat Sword Master – Mixed race beauty is good.]
[Mob 72 – Mid is also good.]
[Nambabamba – Please delete these strange comments.]
[Good Nick Nemda – A British princess and Miss Shinyoung? I’m against beauty monopoly!]
[Talent S Rank – Will they look at you even without that?]
[HN.O – Male playboy.]
[Yeeun – He looks handsome, but hahaha.]
[Future – If that face is convincing, lol.]
[Ironform – No chance.]
After the entrance ceremony was over, Shinyoung’s various student communities were raring to gather new students. Of course, the main character was Kang Shin-hyuk. Eleanor R. Algiers (her real name was Eleanor Rosaline Redlake), who was the head of the Wyvern Knights and the youngest princess of England, appeared on the day of the entrance ceremony. Even last year, when the ceremony was over, they ran wild.
[Nahee-Marion – I like her. For reference, he hasn’t even dated Eleanor.]
[Mob 72 – My back.]
[Talent S Rank – Noona.]
[Algiers РThis is related to personal honor, so please refrain from mentioning it in the future. This article is a hoax, and I have no fianc̩e.]
[Nahee.Marion – But Eleanor also likes her junior.]
[Algiers – Please refrain from spreading rumors.]
[Nahee.Marion – Please refrain from spreading rumors.]
[Yeeun – Are you two together?]
[Future – Well, perhaps with Kang Shin-hyuk...?]
[Now Nougat Sword Master – Hahaha.]
[HN.O – Tomcat trash.]
Lee Na-hee wasn’t fooled by the article, but rumors about the triangle relationship centered on Kang Shin-hyuk had already spread out of control among the first years.
“Woah, no matter how many comments I read, I can’t organize them.”
“To think this would happen.”
“You should’ve expected it.”
It was unbelievable that the best newspaper in England made a false report, but if you read the article, they didn’t tell a single lie. For example, Eleanor and Kang Shin-hyuk were the captain and vice-captain of the Wyvern Knights. And, in the underline, it read ‘The British royal family revealed that it doesn’t matter if her marriage partner is Korean, they support her choice.’ They were deliberately misleading the people!’
“It’s in England...”
“It’s the same as Korea.”
“By the way, when was this picture taken?”
Lee Na-hee pointed to the picture of the two on the front page of the newspaper. The two were wearing plain clothes while walking into a café, having a friendly conversation. The final blow was that the distance between them was too close, and Eleanor was looking at him with a shy smile. It was a picture that no one would doubt was of young lovers. Kang Shin-hyuk never dated her, so he had to ponder over it.
“It looks like it was when the two of us went for coffee after Masked Bacchus activities.”
“Ah, we bought it and drank together because it was late. All five of us were there.”
“No, Eunah was there too, so six.”
“What? Then it’s not a date!”
“Of course?”
Was the British government keeping watch on her? Even so, Kang Shin-hyuk speculated that their Masked Bacchus activities wouldn’t have been discovered at this time. As he dealt with spiritual power, Kang Shin-hyuk had excellent senses, and Eleanor herself was quite alert, so they would immediately notice if they were under surveillance. Perhaps this photo was a random one someone had taken? But even so, it was a very sharp picture.
“You look sweet. Hee...”
“Eli, don’t download it.”
“Eli? Did you say, Eli?”
“Ah.”
Kang Shin-hyuk’s eyes went wide at his mistake. He thought Eleanor would be the one to make the first mistake! Instead of blaming him, Lee Na-hee narrowed her eyes at Eleanor.
“Eli... It looks like there really was...?”
“Well, that’s, more than that, Na-hee...?”
“What?”
Sparks flared between them.
“I did it too, on the roof.”
“The tent for executives at the Casablanca forward base. Technically, space was divided there as well.”
“We kissed, too.”
“I thought that was the case.”
“Eli, it’s pretty much you...?”
Kang Shin-hyuk, his patience at his limit, pushed the two quarreling girls away.
“Now, both of you go, please.”
“What are you doing? Don’t push me out!”
“This is my room.”
He ran straight to the dorm after the ceremony for his appointment with Claire, but he was unable to shake off Lee Na-hee and Eleanor. He said he would listen to them, so they entered his room in an attempt to get rid of the confusion. Then why did they start to fight?
“Anyway, others are also listening.”
“How did you know?”
“I’ll tell you, Na-hee.”
“Na-hee...”
“Just go, both of you!”
When Kang Shin-hyuk yelled, a red-haired beauty appeared behind him.
“Ah, why are you so ruthlessly chasing them out?”
“Claire?”
Claire also had that earring-type comms device that could teleport her directly to other top-rankers. It seemed she had used it just now.
“Noona?”
“Ah...”
When the owner appeared, the thieving cats shrugged. It was only then that they realized why he was trying to get them to leave. Claire, on the other hand, smiled brightly and pulled out several bags of chicken from her inventory.
“It feels so boring to eat alone. Let’s have a school opening party.”
“Well, are you feeling okay?”
“Of course. Let’s eat while we talk about what happened.”
“Uh...”
Lee Na-hee and Eleanor both froze at that, seeing the glint in Claire’s eyes. They may not now, but the article published today was a detonator that pushed Claire off the brink she was on after Tsukuyo’s visit. Originally, Kang Shin-hyuk was going to see her alone, explain it carefully, and soothe her, but these two ended up getting caught.
“Good?”
“Yes, yes!”
Kang Shin-hyuk couldn’t save them. That was because his own ass was on fire the moment Claire appeared. The home party lasted for three hours, and Lee Na-hee and Eleanor were only released from their interrogation after they confessed all that had happened with Kang Shin-hyuk during the vacation.
“I’m scared, I’m scared...”
“Junior, I’m dying...”
“That’s why you should’ve run away.”
“I didn’t know it would be like this...!”
Kang Shin-hyuk saw the two off and looked back at Claire, smiling victoriously.
“Are you satisfied now?”
“It’s still not enough, given Tsukuyo.”
Her cheeks puffed up, and she threatened him by raising her arms up. Of course, it was just cute, but she probably knew that. Kang Shin-hyuk felt the stress that had been accumulating vanish as he looked at her.
“Yes, I’ll tell you everything. Come on.”
“No, you come. Sit here.”
She put her cup down, spread her legs to the side, and tapped between them. Indeed, she wanted that. Kang Shin-hyuk obeyed. First, she folded her legs over him to constrain him and then wrapped her arms around his stomach to ensure he couldn’t escape. She sounded relieved as she leaned against him.
“You’re mine now.”
“I was always yours.”
“Then, write it down.”
She pressed her chin down on his back. He could feel her lips on his neck.
“Your back has grown bigger again?”
“Didn’t I tell you about my trait? I guess my status also went up at that time. Somehow, the school uniform became a little tight.”
“Your stomach has become soft.”
“Because my abs were solid from the start?”
“No, it’s gotten harder... So what about the forearms? You have more muscle. Why?”
“Haha.”
She touched his body everywhere and asked why he had grown bigger. He laughed low and moved on before she could.
“Can I stop listening to Tsukuyo?”
“I know nothing happened. It was unpleasant to hear that that fox knows a lot about you.”
“That’s right; it was a past life.”
“No, not like that... You don’t know.”
She stopped talking and buried her face in his back.
“So how about Eunah...? Did you clear things up with her?”
“I don’t know, but I don’t think it’s the worst.”
“Yes, that’s it. Please don’t be too harsh about making her independent.”
Kang Shin-hyuk smiled bitterly. The words he heard from Shin Eunah came to mind. Of course, the conclusion he made was a cause of his distress.
“No, I think it would be better to stay away for the time being. For both of us.”
“You just looked like a dad. Or a grandpa, I suppose.”
“Yes, that’s why. Now I want a more normal senior-junior relationship.”
“Like that...”
So that was how the story ended concerning the expedition. Claire also liked the conclusion. She clung to his body and spoke playfully.
“So, why is this place so big?”
“That’s right.”
“Ahhhhhh!”
The wolf quickly stood up to perform his mission. Claire screamed as if she had been waiting and happily met the fate of Red Riding Hood.
***
The next morning, Kang Shin-hyuk’s phone vibrated as he entered the second year’s class A and sat by the window.
[♥Claire♥: Do your best today ♥♥♥]
All of Claire’s complaints seemed to have been safely resolved. Kang Shin-hyuk smiled happily at the message, but the person behind him suddenly shook his head.
“What am I seeing?”
“Baek In-ha?!”
It was a little strange that he and Baek, who was fighting for the top-rankings (though Kang Shin-hyuk was the likely victor), were in the same class this year. But the reason was simple. Shin Yoon-hak, the principal, realized there were many talented people in the first year’s Knight Department last year and decided to put them together and provide them education appropriate to their level. So this year’s Knight Department A class had gathered only the best students. It was natural that Baek, Do Woojin, and Karen were all there. In fact, many from the Wyvern Knights were there as well, so the new class had drawn a lot of excitement.
“Pretending to be popular?!”
“Oh, can’t you leave it? This is the achievement of special training!”
Kang Shin-hyuk was able to distinguish between hostiles and non-hostiles with his spiritual power... However, before Kang Shin-hyuk could say anything else, Baek continued with an odd expression.
“By the way, Shinyuk, is that Clare-noona?”
“Don’t talk out loud.”
“Why... Why are there so many hearts? You don’t always do that.”
“We’re dating.”
“No, even with that, it’s a 180-degree turn...?!”
Baek was in full force today. Claire, who had created Masked Bacchus because of her tastes, could send such a stupid couple-like message?!
“It’s not like this every day, but when we feel good.”
“When you feel good...? Then, yesterday, when I knocked on your door for us to eat dinner together...”
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know.”
He thought it was really fortunate that the door was locked. Baek’s eyes narrowed at that.
“Shinyuk, you, from the first day of the new semester...”
“Hey!”
The moment he was about to say something, Do Woojin came in through the classroom door. During the vacation, he had grown considerably, becoming a very desirable tank.
“Aren’t the first years fighting?”
“Fighting on the first day of the new semester...?”
“There’s a girl named Oh Hye-na and some other students...”
Baek jumped out of the seat and began to move. Kang Shin-hyuk shrugged and stood up, and Do Woojin stood there, surprised.
“She’s a candidate as Baek In-ha’s wife-to-be. Let’s go see it.”
“Ha, from the first day...”
“That’s right.”
Perhaps it would’ve calmed down by the time they arrived, but it was quite worth seeing.
Kang Shin-hyuk left the classroom with Do Woojin, feeling a sense of youth he hadn’t felt during his first-year.
