A VIP as soon as you Log In-Chapter 294 - School is a Legion (2)

“Please take care of us from now on, instructor Kang Shin-hyuk.”

“Please speak comfortably just like before, Mr. Bolton.”

Kang Shin-hyuk smiled bitterly as he regarded the middle-aged man, Emil Bolton, sitting before him. Was it only the bitter smiles that had increased these days? Emil Bolton, Mencius, who was once in the top 300, retired and now served as the male dormitory director. Now that Shinyoung was being transformed into a combat group, he also decided to defend the students and fight alongside them. So, in the end, Emil accepted the help of Kang Shin-hyuk’s ability.

“No, as long as you’re in a teaching position, I can’t treat you as before. You’re no longer a student but an instructor. We must make a distinction so that your disciples will know.”

“That’s... There’s nothing to be done.”

The two were in the private lounge of the royal class. Since Kang Shin-hyuk was no longer a student, he needed to receive new accommodations, so a new place had been prepared for him.

“After that, I made a promise to share the sword with you, but in the end, I couldn’t. But, I was able to keep my promise like this.”

“Promises like that...”

Honestly, he had been so busy for the entire year. Nowadays, when he thought of the past, he thought of things that tormented him. But it wasn’t something he could get rid of.

“Instructor Kang Shin-hyuk.” ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢

“Ah, yes.”

“I have a rough idea of what you’re thinking. In that sense, I think the title given to you will help... Goodness.”

It looked like he wanted to continue. Instead, he tapped on Kang Shin-hyuk’s shoulder and changed the topic.

“The conversation with the principal is over. Keep using your old room. Is that alright with Boyle?”

“Ah, yeah.”

“Good... At times like these, it’s good to have a lover.”

He didn’t say anything further and just left with a nod. Kang Shin-hyuk had a strange sense of appreciation for Emil, and then suddenly remembered he had never confirmed his status after evolving his trait. He had been blown around like in a storm since the trait evolved, so he had been distracted.

Although he had prepared for it, the change was extreme. It was ridiculous that all of his physical statuses had reached the current limit, but he was confident it was evidence he would soon exceed it. His special ability, Spiritual Power, and the new form of Golden Dragon Fighter had already reached X-rank. Those two had exceeded the current limit, so was there any reason his physical abilities couldn’t?

Even some of his skills had reached the X-rank for rarity and were nearing the current limit in proficiency. This wasn’t just because of his awakening, but because he had gained overwhelming experience in his fight with Janus. That had especially helped his spiritual power. The rarity and proficiency of his other mastery skills had risen, but it was surprising that his wind mastery had transformed further. A skill that mastered the winds and rains was the most appropriate for a dragon that ascended to the heavens.

‘But, this isn’t just a skill to call the wind and rain.’

Kang Shin-hyuk still remembered the moment when Janus arrived. They had overwhelmed the entire area with spiritual power and completely changed the battlefield to fit them. God wind was a skill that could bring about a similar effect. In other words, it was magic that affected the entire battlefield. It was a tremendous ability that manifested Kang Shin-hyuk’s ability to strengthen allies and weaken enemies. With that skill, he could be seen as taking a step forward as a transcendental person suited for the Hero Universe.

Of course, compared to Janus, he was still starting out, but with his trait, he would grow faster and stronger there. That had to be the case. If there was something else unexpected, it was that his emotion skill had reached X-rank. Was it because the level of his existence had been raised? Was it because of the change that had come over his eyes?

He faced some physical changes as a result of his traits evolving. It was normal that he became a little taller and more refined, but the change that came to his eyes was a bit severe. Now his pupils were vertical, like a reptile’s, and they shone five colors when he activated his Royal Dragon ability. However, because of that, his eyesight had improved remarkably. His ability to grasp the flow of energy was originally excellent, but it had only grown after his evolution, and he wondered if it was possible even to find and cut off the weaknesses in other’s flow of energy. Perhaps that was why his emotion skill grew.

“How magnetic.”

“Oh, Claire.”

The lounge door opened, and Claire walked in. Perhaps today was the first time she entered the royal class with official approval. It was fortunate that it was originally a dormitory that didn’t distinguish between men and women. If it were an ordinary male dormitory, Kang Shin-hyuk would’ve had to meet her outside.

“What are you doing here?”

“I had a little talk with Mr. Bolton. The paperwork has been processed.”

“Yeah, I’ve been talking with the female teachers too.”

Claire sat next to him with a small smile, then leaned on his shoulder and pressed her forehead against his cheek.

“They really gave it to me; how can you flirt with a minor?”

“Ah, no way.”

Claire shared a glance with him before smiling once more.

“I mean, all I heard was, ‘Wow, I was really surprised!’, ‘You work so well together!’, ‘The couple of the century!’ They even asked me if I knew your identity from the start.”

“It’s so noisy...”

“Well, isn’t it normal?”

Their relationship with each other, and even with Shin Eunah, couldn’t be easily explained.

“That’s why they were jealous of me for no reason. One even mentioned if they just weren’t a teacher...”

“Oh, I don’t even want to know who that is.”

He hoped it wasn’t someone he knew. While Kang Shin-hyuk showed a disgusted face, Claire laughed then continued quieter.

“Okay?”

“It’s not okay.”

“...Yes, actually me too.”

“But if we stop, it’ll be how they want it.”

In fact, the two weren’t as depressed by Shin Eunah’s death as others thought since the administrator confirmed she was alive. However, he felt frustrated that he was being pushed by Janus and the Hero Universe.

“I’m going to make a potion that can break that damn bitch. Of course, you have to take my revenge for me.”

“Please.”

“Yes, and I’m going to fix the whole system.”

Claire quietly pledged so as she buried her face in his chest. He couldn’t see her face, but he knew what she was feeling.

“Is that possible?”

“Last time, you did a good job bringing me to that world.”

“Cy Xenon?”

“Yes.”

She nodded quietly.

“Because I’ve grasped the idea of being able to change the system that manages the world with human hands. Of course, I’ll need help.”

“Of course, I’ll help.”

“Yes, help me. Jormungand, I hate playing with those strange things now.”

Claire stretched out her arms and held him tightly. It was the first time they had a chance to really talk since that day, so Kang Shin-hyuk felt a little nervous, but now it seemed to be okay. The two would continue to work well as partners in the future.

“Hey, it’s the common room here, but it’s a little bit...”

Karen was staring at the two through the door that suddenly opened. Kang Shin-hyuk, having sensed her approach with his excellent emotion skill, responded eloquently.

“Everyone does this much.”

“No, I think her Majesty will cry, so why don’t you take care?”

The couple sighed and stood up. However, Karen didn’t retreat as more members came in one after another. At that point, he knew that everyone had been listening in (though he had blocked the noise with his artifact), but why did they all come in?

“What do you mean why?”

“No, isn’t it obvious?”

“We want to discuss Masked Bacchus.”

Baek In-ha went to respond, but Lee Na-hee cut him off. Eleanor stuck behind them and nodded. She decided to pretend she didn’t see them flirting.

“Now, it won’t be like it used to; I want to go confidently. Maybe it’d be more beneficial to remain here than to go lead Baekyang.”

“That’s a radical judgment.”

“I-“

Eleanor’s voice sounded stiff.

“I’ve already bet my fate on you. Even if you don’t want to go to England, you have to be firm.”

“Ah... Huh?”

Kang Shin-hyuk realized something as he listened to her.

“Will you ever go back to England?”

“I refused, but it won’t be over easily, so I need your help.”

“Ha.”

“All international students must be in a similar situation now. By the way, if Shinyoung said they were transforming into a battle guild, they have to leave and go home to be a soldier.”

Karen smiled at Kang Shin-hyuk as she added to Eleanor’s explanation.

“So, this is a situation where international students have to offer the merit of not returning to their home country... What do you think, Shin Eun-hyuk?”

“Hey, first, let’s kick her out.”

“Ahhhhh! Don’t! Let me stay!”
