A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 427
426 – Different Dreams (3)
Dan Ye-rin was busy organizing her thoughts and reaching an agreement with Luna.
Even if Grace didn’t know, Luna’s joining was beyond her expectations.
But it’s even better. Luna is a valuable gemstone, even if not as valuable as Shivar.
‘The most notable part is the growth. It’s growing to a noticeable degree.’
Luna entered the class at the top of her class a year ago and attracted a lot of attention.
But it felt a little overshadowed by the intrusion of the unapproachable wildling, Shivar.
If Shivar is the sun so bright that he cannot look straight at it, Luna is the moon.
The only being that shines in the dark night sky. A person who shines only after the sun sets.
What they have in common is that they haven’t been properly crafted yet. Anyone can become the owner.
‘The sun and the moon. They go together quite well.’
Luna said, “I can’t tell you yet, but I’ll be following the same path as Shivar.”
I wondered what that path was, but it was easy to figure it out. Dan Ye-rin raised her head and stared at the sky.
A full moon and a river of stars flowing clearly. The taste of alcohol at a time like this cannot be expressed in words.
‘But the sun and the moon cannot coexist. I will keep the sun by my side.’
The sun and the moon follow the same path, but they cannot coexist.
Dan Ye-rin lifted her glass while thinking like that. It felt sweeter today.
‘I guess I’ll have to keep Luna as a hidden card. I’m also concerned about her ultimate goal.’
Dan Ye-rin’s goal is the emperor’s seat. However, Luna’s goal is slightly different.
To steer Shivar on the right path. Stay away from politics.
I would say it’s closer to a love story than a political one. That might be the most difficult part.
‘The crown prince of the Matra Empire is also a headache······’
Even though the prince held power for a long time, he could not ignore Karas.
A person who is eyeing Shivar. A person of power who is certain to become the next emperor.
Even if he sat on the emperor’s throne, he could not let his guard down as much as Karas.
‘The only good thing is that Shivar seems to be uncomfortable with Karas.’
Dan Ye-rin also knows about Karas’ reputation. She is the type of person who is more suited to madness than anyone else.
But madness tends to turn into something more than just power the moment it meets it. It’s what you call a freak.
Karas’s abilities are so outstanding that he can realize his ideals. You can’t let your guard down.
‘Being a man is a blessing from heaven.’
If Karas was a woman instead of a man, I would think the world is so unfair.
No matter what he did, he would not be better than Karas at anything.
Of course, I know what kind of adversity he has been through. He must have been through something just as difficult as I was.
That’s why I’m confident that I know Karas’ personality better than anyone else.
‘He is a human being who is willing to sacrifice even his own body. I am like that too.’
If Shivar had not discriminated between men and women, he would have desperately tried to restrain them.
But Shivar is a man who loves women more than anyone else. He never showed any sign of that.
Dan Ye-rin drank alcohol, recalling the memories of how she reacted whenever she teased Shivar.
“so······”
Then she put down her glass and spoke softly. Today, Shivar did not come for the secret meeting.
There’s no particular reason why she didn’t come. She just seems to have been suspicious of Grace recently or something.
So the presence I feel behind me now is not Shivar. It’s someone completely different.
“What brings you here today?”
Dan Ye-rin looked back and asked. When she looked back, there was darkness where not even the moonlight could shine.
A woman soon emerges from the darkness.
“I have something to tell you.”
The woman’s identity was Jo Han-born, Lee Yeon-ju. Dan Ye-rin looked Lee Yeon-ju up and down.
Just like last time, black clothes that seemed to cover her entire body. The curves of her body were clearly revealed.
Dan Ye-rin leaned against the railing and asked in a slightly drunken voice.
“Isn’t it hot? It’s summer now, so it must be very hot.”
“It’s better than my home country. The heat there is brutal.”
Lee Yeon-ju responded with a joke. Dan Ye-rin handed over a bottle of alcohol after hearing the answer.
An invitation to go out for a drink. Lee Yeon-ju furrowed her brows at the invitation.
“We’re not close enough to share a drink, are we?”
“That’s too bad. I thought we were already on the same boat.”
“Bound by a contractual relationship.”
Lee Yeon-ju snorted. As expected, she couldn’t trust that sly woman.
Although we joined hands to liberate our country, it was difficult to trust each other.
Dan Ye-rin also seemed to know Lee Yeon-ju’s feelings, as she spoke with her characteristically sly expression.
“Yeah. So you can’t drink alcohol? Is he still a kid?”
“Who said that······! Phew.”
Lee Yeon-ju barely managed to suppress her tears. At the same time, Shivar came to mind.
During the day, Shivar teased her for being like a child, but this time, Dan Ye-rin teased her. They really are a well-matched pair.
“Okay, I have some exciting news.”
“What’s the news? Parents of first graders are attending?”
“I guess you know a little bit. I just saw you drinking every night.”
“Because I don’t work at night like some people do.”
A clear response. Anyone who hears it will know that it is a shot at Lee Yeon-ju.
Since Lee Yeon-ju had no intention of denying it, she was able to let it slide.
“Have you heard who’s coming?”
“Well, I don’t know about that.”
“The head of the Namgung family.”
“··· ···”
-Stop!
Dan Ye-rin, who was about to pour alcohol after hearing the information that Lee Yeon-ju had given, stopped.
It means that the information is so important that it makes her body stop. She froze in that position.
After a while, he seemed to be gathering his thoughts, then he poured some alcohol into a glass and opened his mouth.
“That’s unexpected. I thought you were a heavy-bottomed person.”
“There must be something about it that interests you enough to make you want to take that butt off.”
The Namgung Family is currently one of the most prestigious families in the East.
The Huan Empire has a very unique culture of non-interference between government officials and martial artists. Government officials and martial artists do not interfere with each other.
However, as the wind of blood blowing through the imperial family has made the government quite unstable, the family’s prestige is rising.
Namgung Se-ga was leading the trend, and the head of the family was also known to be a person of considerable ability.
Of course, the buttocks must also be heavy. It’s hard to believe that they would do something like this.
“Are you talking about Shivar?”
But if something comes out that even catches the attention of the head of the Namgung family, the story will be different.
An academy student who fought on equal terms with the King of Destruction, Hector.
What if that student is a teaching assistant, and that student is teaching a class that includes a member of the family?
“As expected, you’re quick-witted. Nothing’s been confirmed yet, but at least that’s what I think. I’d like to see it for myself, even if it’s just out of curiosity.”
“hmm.”
Dan Ye-rin raised her glass. She had a lot to think about.
The Namgung family and other families do not support anyone in the royal family.
The winning side is on my side. I will be loyal to the winner.
Even though I have a bat-like mind, there’s nothing I can do about it. Even if it’s a noble family, in the end, a family is a family.
The greatest military force in human history, the ‘military’, is like a light in the face of a typhoon in front of the imperial family.
‘This is the most tricky method.’
But remaining neutral means not helping. It’s a double-edged sword.
In the end, you should support the side that seems likely to win, so that it does not have a negative impact on your family in the future.
If you are in a position like Gaju, you would have figured out the relationship between Shivar and Dan Yerin.
‘Interesting.’
Dan Ye-rin touched her lips. A smile came to her face.
Hector’s military power is rumored to be comparable to that of an army.
Even the generals of the Huan Empire are helpless in front of Hector. He is that strong.
But now that the rumor has spread that Shivar is as strong as Hector… it’s already getting interesting.
“Putting aside the fact that your lord is coming, what about your hometown people? What are they doing now?”
“He’ll come, of course. He’ll want to see how strong Shivar is.”
“I will provoke you to show your force by any means necessary.”
“That’s a bit worrying.”
Many people treat rumors as just rumors. That’s why you’ll want to see it with your own eyes.
The situation had become complicated in many ways. Dan Ye-rin drank the remaining alcohol in her glass and opened her mouth.
“So, why are you telling me this information?”
“If you ever get any important information, tell me. I’ll consider it a debt.”
“Information······”
Dan Ye-rin hesitated as she recalled what had happened today. Something very interesting.
After a while, she smiled and told Yeonju Lee.
“There is a proverb like this in Joseon.”
“What proverb?”
“A pumpkin rolled in on a vine.”
“?”
From noble mtl dot com
Lee Yeon-ju opened one eye. It was a reaction of, “What are you talking about?”
“I’m more curious because your intentions are good. Did something happen?”
“I’m sorry, but that’s all I can tell you. It’s personal. It’s related to my life.”
“Who did you recruit at the cost of your weakness?”
“As I said before, I can’t tell you.”
“hmm······”
Lee Yeon-ju narrowed her eyes and glared at Dan Ye-rin. Dan Ye-rin simply smiled her usual sly smile.
Even the intoxication made it difficult to understand his true intentions. In the end, I had no choice but to shrug my shoulders and move on.
“Well, I’ll have to look for it myself. It seems like it’s probably someone from our neighborhood.”
“It’ll be fun.”
“I hope so. I’m going now.”
With those words, Lee Yeon-ju jumped under the railing. There was not even a single sound.
Dan Ye-rin drank all the remaining alcohol and returned to her room. Then she slowly laid down on the soft bed.
A slight intoxication and a soft feeling on your back. It’s perfect for falling asleep.
“Huhhu······”
She looked up at the dark ceiling and let out a weak laugh.
It seems like a familiar man’s face keeps being drawn on the ceiling. A man’s face with a unique, charming expression.
My face was burning, was it because I was drunk, or was it for another reason? I couldn’t stop laughing.
‘Whatever it is, it doesn’t matter.’
It was nice just thinking about it. I’ve never had an experience like this in my life.
Before a romantic relationship, I found someone I could trust as a person.
‘It can never be taken away.’
Dan Ye-rin slowly closed her eyes.
‘Never.’

[Faith rises!]
“?”
As soon as I woke up in the morning, a message was printed.
What is this?
