A Wild Man Has Entered the Academy - Chapter 484



Overwhelming Power (4)

In the past, Dan Ye-rin witnessed countless instances of precious people disappearing before her eyes.

The first was his mother, who was the emperor’s concubine. Although she came from a humble family, she had something special about her that set her apart from others.

Outstanding beauty and intelligence. These two qualities enabled a daughter from an insignificant family to become the emperor’s concubine.

After that, he steadily strengthened his political position while not being greedy.

People tend to become greedy when they have power, but Dan Ye-rin’s mother was not like that.

But this was also just a means to protect himself, and he was definitely not without ambition. Rather, he was closer to being ambitious.

He worked hard so that one day his children would become emperors or have powers similar to that of emperors.

An ambitious person who suppresses his greed will eventually achieve great success, and Dan Ye-rin was also deeply influenced by this and grew up to be a great person.

‘Daughter, remember this. If there is someone you would give your life for, you must never lose that person.’

‘Did you lose your mother?’

‘I lost it right before my eyes. After that, I vowed. I would achieve what I wanted even if I had to hide my true nature. But I would not abandon people.’

‘I don’t know.’

‘You’ll find out someday.’

A few days after my mother said that, she disappeared without a trace.

I had no idea where he had gone, but I was able to figure it out through rumors going around the palace.

The half-sister and mother of Danjucheon, the empress, sensed her true intentions and sent her far away.

There is no one more dangerous than an ambitious person who hides his desires. From then on, Dan Ye-rin realized what it felt like to lose someone.

‘Princess. What shall we do today?’

The maid I was usually close with suddenly disappeared.

‘I have come to hear your request. It is an honor to become the princess’s bodyguard.’

My mother’s younger brother, my maternal uncle, died protecting himself from assassins who attacked at night.

As the people she thought she had a close relationship with gradually disappeared, Dan Ye-rin became determined.

He decided that if he were going to lose like this, he would become an emperor who would never lose. From then on, he gradually increased his power.

‘You are foolish, little brother. The emperor’s position has already been decided.’

Until Danjucheon ruined everything. She hurriedly fled to the academy when Danjucheon started his political strangulation.

He went to the academy to take refuge and gather his thoughts. However, he encountered an unexpected ‘fate’.

What should I say about that fate······ It was the most unique of all the people I’ve met so far.

He is clearly smart, but he does ignorant things, and he has good nature, but when the time comes, his hands become cruel.

But because the person himself was so kind, Dan Ye-rin couldn’t help but fall for him little by little.

As time passed, she became increasingly entangled with the politics of the Hwan Empire, and Dan Ye-rin also became increasingly uneasy.

I was worried that I might lose the person I thought was my destiny. I was worried that I might have gotten myself involved in something useless.

‘Was it really a good thing to get involved?’

That idea was proven quite quickly. Now that I’m back in the palace that was nothing short of hell.

Dan Ye-rin watched the duel between her destined opponents, Shivar and General Yi-ryong, with an anxious heart.

It’s a battle in name only, but in reality, the dragon is determined to kill Shivar. There’s no way he wouldn’t know.

‘I know you’re strong, but······’

Dan Yerin looked at Shivar with concern. She had a rough idea of ​​how strong Shivar was.

The practical training and experiments we had at the Academy. Each time, Shivar showed tremendous performance and led us to victory.

Thanks to that, I realized that Shivar had the skills of a professor, not just a student, but that was it.

No matter how strong Shivar is, he will be no match for the strongest military force in the Hwan Empire, the Yiryong. That’s what I thought.

‘It would be more like a bluff to say that you defeated the King of Destruction.’

A bluff that men inevitably show. A tactic to look good to women.

If it were normal, I would have just let it go, thinking it was cute, but not now. As for Dan Ye-rin, her anxiety only grew.

But it was already over. Moreover, there was one thing that Dan Ye-rin believed in.

‘Even a saint would stop you in a dangerous moment.’

The saintess, Lize, was sitting carefully right next to Danjucheon. Dan Yerin glanced at her.

No matter what Danjucheon was saying, Lize was keeping her eyes focused on the training ground.

It is truly an extremely rude act, but it is none other than Lize, who is a saint and also holds the title of the Holy One.

The Lord, who is currently praised as the Sword Master, is known to be a walking army, and his authority is no less powerful than that of the Emperor.

And Lize is even worse. Even Danjucheon, who is only a prince, has no choice but to talk.

If anyone was going to be able to properly perform the ritual, it would have to be an emperor who was sick in bed. That was why I could trust him.

‘I hope you don’t get seriously hurt······’

Dan Ye-rin prayed earnestly that Shivar wouldn’t get seriously hurt. Even if his limbs were broken, it would be okay as long as he was fine.

Because losing someone precious was just too much to bear. Moreover, Shivar was harboring emotions he had never felt before.

Beyond a political partner, she is a life partner herself. Someone to whom I can give everything, as my mother once said.

I don’t know exactly when it started. I just became close to Shivar and before I knew it, I was captivated by him.

-Dang!

While she was lost in thought for a moment, the bell signaling the start rang. Dan Ye-rin concentrated on her training.

Although she focuses more on strategy than brute force, she has learned some basic self-defense techniques. That’s why she has an eye for the situation.

-Whew!

‘What······!’

That’s why I was shocked to see Shivar’s actions. He threw the axe as soon as he started.

The dragon was momentarily taken aback by the unexpected attack, but turned his head and easily dodged it. It was an incredibly futile attack.

That wasn’t all. As soon as Shivar threw the axe, he rushed at her with his bare body. Dan Ye-rin was shocked.

Even if you’re ignorant, you’re still too ignorant to attack head-on. Even the dragon is already swinging his sword.

“not······!”

-Kwaang!

Before Dan Ye-rin could even shout, the Unwol-do struck Shivar’s shoulder. I’ll say it again, ‘hit hard’.

The blade did not dig into his shoulder and he felt fine, as if he had hit a solid rock.

What follows next is······

-Thud! Thud! Thud!!

Indiscriminate violence. Shivar grabbed the dragon’s beard and beat him indiscriminately.

Dan Ye-rin couldn’t help but be shocked. In the meantime, Yi-ryong tried to counterattack as if he wouldn’t give up.

A truly ignorant power struggle. The result of that fight······

-Deaeng!!!

It was a humiliating defeat for the strongest general in the Huan Empire, Yi-ryong. Dan Ye-rin blinked.

It felt as if time was passing slowly. Shivar defeated the dragon with ease.

This means that you have been dealt the strongest card. Above all, Shivar is your life companion.

The fable about the ugly duckling who turned out to be a swan. Something much more than that fable was unfolding before our eyes.

It’s not a swan, it’s a dragon. A symbol that resembles a dragon is standing next to him.

‘oh my god······’

Dan Ye-rin held her face with both hands. She couldn’t tell if this was a dream or reality.

If you defeated the dragon while inflicting humiliation upon him, wouldn’t you have defeated Hector, the King of Destruction?

This is not the kind of boasting a man would do, but the truth. Shivar has only told the truth so far.

The only one who didn’t believe it was herself. Dan Ye-rin’s lips slowly rose.

‘You are truly······’

An unknown pleasure surged from deep within my chest. Was this feeling ecstasy or joy?

Whatever it was, it still had a deep connection to happiness.

‘This is a gift from the heavens······’

It’s a story that seems to have come out of a fairy tale. It feels like the story has become a reality.

Dan Ye-rin couldn’t easily come to her senses until the moment when Shivar looked at her with a trembling expression.

All the tension that had built up until then was suddenly released, and I was so happy that it was hard to control my emotions.

Not yet. The fight is not over yet. Danjucheon will definitely use his power again.

My head was clearly telling me so, but my emotions were not calming down, so I was confused.

“······Lord.”

“··· ···”

“princess.”

“Huh.”

Then, she was able to come to her senses thanks to the voice that was digging into her ear. Dan Ye-rin looked to the side in surprise.

Danjucheon was nowhere to be seen, and the blue-eyed saintess, Lize, was looking at him.

Dan Ye-rin blinked and looked around. Before she knew it, even the soldiers had all left.

‘Oh, when did you go out?’

I’m really confused. It’s almost the first time I’ve been this distracted.

She looked around with a puzzled expression and then came face to face with Lize. Lize was wearing her signature gentle smile.

“It looks like you had some happy thoughts for a moment.”

“That······is so.”

Dan Ye-rin answered in a bewildered voice. She had no idea why Lize had asked such a question.

Meanwhile, Lize nodded and spoke in a soft voice.

“What are you thinking now?”

“What do you mean······”

“There’s no one here right now. You can just talk to me comfortably.”

“··· ···”

What do you want? Dan Ye-rin turned her head without realizing it.

For some reason, Shivar had disappeared. Her heart sank.

“Hey, Shivar! Where is Shivar?”

“Why me?”

A voice was heard right behind her. Lize turned her head and looked behind her.

Shivar came into view, with her characteristically blank expression. Her complexion brightened as if she were about to shine.

Then, Dan Ye-rin spread her arms wide without realizing it. Anyone who saw it could tell that it was a reaction asking for a hug.

Shivar blinked his eyes at her and then slowly hugged her.

-Whoa!

“You······!”

“huh.”

“From now on, I will believe every word you say.”

Dan Ye-rin answered while rubbing her face against Shivar’s chest.

“Even if you’re a devil, it doesn’t matter.”

“··· ···”

“So please don’t leave my side.”

Shivar didn’t answer. To be exact, it was closer to not being able to do anything.

-pat pat

Instead, he expressed his intention by patting her on the back.

“··· ···”

And Lize looked at them with a mysterious expression.
