Admission is for nothing (166)
Lesson 34. Free servitude – 1
Shik-groom (喰神狼) means a wolf that eats gods.
Fenrir, the son of Loki who ate Odin given in Ragnarok in Norse mythology, is representative of it.
When I came to Union Academy and studied the history of different dimensions, I could see that a legend similar to the story of Fenrir had been handed down in other dimensions, only with a different name.
――In fact, there were quite a few cases where even the names matched, but it would be meaningless to tackle it at the point where the Tower of Babel had its origins on the earth.
Then what about the nine-tailed fox? On Earth, it is a great youkai with origins in East Asia, and like Fenrir, it can be easily found in legends and myths of other dimensions.
It has a nine-pronged tail, so it can exert supernatural powers, and it is famous for bewitching people and eating their livers.
In China, Dalgi, a rare evil woman who became the concubine of the king of the Yin Dynasty and ruined the country, was described as Tamamo-no-Mae, who was bewitched by the emperor when she moved to Japan.
In fact, it is not known what the nature of the nine-tailed fox is, but it would not be an exaggeration to say that it is the most famous among animals that have been handed down in stories.
“But the blood of the two of them was said to be Lucille.”
“A miraculous probability. It’s not easy for those who inherit the blood of ancient divine beasts like us to leave descendants.”
“I guess that too.”
Without having to look at each one, Kanid and Lucia’s abilities are the strongest of the Wolf Tooth tribe.
If the two of them could easily conceive a child—this might not be polite to say, but it would have strengthened the tribe by producing as many strong children as possible.
At least, since Ruchel entered the academy, she would have to have a new child to make a successor…
“Son-in-law, that’s a little different. It’s true that it’s difficult, but–because I’m not even trying.”
After pouring alcohol into Ban Yu-Won’s glass, Kanid made a bitter expression as he poured the remaining half of the bottle to his mouth.
“It’s my fault. If I hadn’t been excessively greedy when I was young, I wouldn’t have signed a contract with him…” ”
Because only Lucille is enough for me to suffer. I can’t give the Constellation any more weaknesses.”
Lucia explained instead of Canid, who was speechless.
Indeed, Ban Yu-won soon realized.
They are worried that the Constellation will do the trick it did to Lucille again.
‘Wait, but I somehow–.’
Ban Yu-won stared at Ruchel for a while, who was purring in her arms and making a charming cry (it was because she was drunk).
somehow what Could they even say that if they had a child, they would enslave them and protect it from the Constellation?
It’s just that the owner has changed, but isn’t it the same as wearing a leash?
Even after thinking about his relationship with Ruchel for a long time, it was shameless to say that it was ‘help’.
“Ruchel’s heart is also… I can’t say it’s completely resolved.”
So he said something else instead.
“I am still researching to try to do it somehow. So… please wait a little bit.”
“Thank you.”
Did he notice the hesitation or guilt in his words?
Kanid grinned and patted him on the shoulder.
“My daughter has met a really nice owner.”
“They said he was a master worth giving his soul to.”
Lucia made up for it in a calm tone.
I was shy and avoided looking at him, but Ruchel grabbed his sleeve tightly and dug deeper into his arms.
“Looks like he’s asleep.”
“I made education poisonous.”
“I’m just saying this just in case, but please don’t tell me what kind of education you did.”
It’s scary just that it’s education to make a child, but how can there be such a terrifying combination that the teacher is a gumiho?
He smiled wryly as he stroked Lucille in his arms.
If you are the daughter of a nine-tailed fox, it is only natural that you are born with the gift of bewitching people.
“Save it.”
“of course.”
At Canid’s words, Ban Yu-Won firmly nodded.
That was what he had been preparing for since the moment he and Ruchel were tied up in a master-servant relationship.
“–iced coffee.”
At that time, Slotty, who slowly approached holding the wine jar, sighed quietly when she saw Lucille.
“I lost my player to the princess.”
“So I told you to practice flirting with men, Slotty.”
“Because it was annoying at the time…”
-Kuung. Slotty’s eyes were fixed on Ban Yu-Won even as she put the jar of wine down on the table and responded to Canid.
It seems like they’re lock-on as if they’re not going to miss it.
Ban Yu-won sincerely thought that he was lucky to have Ruchel.
If it hadn’t been there, it might have been eaten in an instant.
“It’s not too late from now on, so try your best.”
“Yes, Empress Dowager Na shines in war. A chance to appeal a lot.”
“War…”
Ban Yu-Won stiffened at Slotty’s nonchalant words.
She was already preparing for the coming war.
A banquet or something, all over the place, excited prisoners were telling them to drink and drink, but even in the midst of that, the forest manager, Slotty, was calmly assessing the current situation.
No, perhaps even the beastmen who seem to be putting their minds at ease like that now…
Ban Yu-won asked Slotty while stroking the head of Ruchel, who had no intention of getting up.
“I heard that the enemy comes from the sky, but can you keep an eye on them?”
“Yes, the leaves whisper to me.”
At that point, I don’t think he’s manipulating trees, but he’s just a shaman.
However, Dokgoyeon appeared from behind, holding a lot of food.
“When I said that I was with you, they gave me a lot here and there. eat.”
“thank you.”
Ban Yu-won accepted the snack Dok-go-yeon offered (it was a sweet snack made from hardened sap) and asked with a bite.
“By the way, have you two ever been together?”
“Because we fought.”
Ban Yoo-won flinched at Dok-go-yeon’s nonsensical remark.
Come to think of it, I didn’t notice it at first, but there were a lot of scratches on Slotty’s body and her hair was getting worse.
On the other hand, Dokgo-yeon did not have to worry about Ban Yu-won.
“It was strong. I wasn’t a bug that only looked at your abilities and rushed at you.”
“You really don’t hold back. Why did you fight in the first place?”
Dok-go-yeon turned his head away, as if he had no intention of answering that obvious question.
Slotty, on the other hand, tilted her head and didn’t care.
“Relieve stress?”
he replied.
“It was strong. After all, strong men lead strong women.”
“Hey what–!”
Isn’t that what I added like that, as if I felt something was lacking?
Those words seemed to treat Dokgo as a half-Yuwon woman, so she hurriedly tried to deny it
. It’s not like they’re all family just because they’re flocking around. I hope you don’t treat us the same as you.”
Dok-go-yeon stepped forward and cut off the illusion.
Depending on what you hear, it could have been a very unpleasant remark, but just like Slotty said, did you fight to relieve stress and become calm?
After hearing that, Slotty tilted her head as if she didn’t understand something, then shrugged her shoulders in agreement and sat down next to Ban Yu-won.
“Anyway, you are popular.”
“I am a bit popular.”
I hate it when I have a personality that can’t lie.
When Ban Yu-Won responded calmly, Slotty leaned her head on his shoulder with a determined expression.
“Then I’ll yield to the princess first. I want to be second.”
“…So I would have told you not to look so vulgar in front of me.”
Oh, there was a reason we fought once.
Ban Yu-Won shook his head at the sight of Dok-Go-Yeon raising his speculation again, and Slotty, who was annoyed but stood up from his seat to respond to it – secretly touching Ban Yu-Won’s hand in the process.
I was sure that if I interfered in the fight between the two, it wouldn’t look good, so I decided to ignore it for now and do what I had to do.
“Is that a mirror?”
“It is a tool that allows you to access Union Net. If you think about it, isn’t it possible for the chief too?”
“We connect through witchcraft. Although I don’t use it often.”
Ban Yu-won, who quickly finished his business, put the mirror in his arms and offered to transfer the mirror he had in reserve, just in case, but Canid refused, saying he had no intention of involving outside work any more.
Also, they don’t like to be connected with the outside world.
This means that this special activity is such a serious problem that we have no choice but to send a rescue request to Union.
“Luchel has completely fallen asleep. I’m sorry, but could you move your son-in-law, Lucille, to your room? Do you see the hole marked with pink fur in the tallest tree over there?”
“Can I take you over there?”
“okay. It looks like you’ve roughly covered everything you need to say, so rest like this.”
Could it be that he is trying to drive the sleeping Lucille and Yu-Won Ban into the same room and make them perform a ritual?
If so, it underestimates the patience of the anti-funny.
Even though I shared a room with a defenseless woman (Light) for a semester, nothing happened to me!
Ban Yu-won internally laughed at Canid’s cunning trick, then picked up Ruchel and stood up from her seat.
“――That’s what they call vulgar!”
“Humans are really inconvenient. It would be more convenient if they just took off everything…!”
Looking back, I saw that the drunkards who had been drinking were clapping their hands as they watched Dok-go-yeon and Slotty start a fierce battle that could not be known whether it was a sparring or a real fight.
Looking at it that way, it seems as if Dok-go-yeon melted among the beasts faster than anyone else—Ban Yu-won sighed and asked Canid.
“I have bad habits, but I’m not really a bad kid. If you make any mistakes, cover them up. please.”
“Haha, of course. There’s no way you’d be rude to your son-in-law’s woman.”
“No, so he’s not like me… that’s it.”
There is no way to resolve the firm illusion that comes from the difference in race.
Ban Yu-won sighed and stepped back from the spot.
“Then, rest well, son-in-law!”
“Just do what you are taught.”
Responding to the unknown words from Kanid and Lucia, he nodded, hit the floor, and reached his destination in one breath.
Going inside the fairly large hole, there was a view of the room that Ruchel must have used before coming to the academy.
Cute furniture, a few books and toys, and a big, spacious, soft-looking bed.
“It’s a little thrilling.”
The concept of everything that caught his eye was proving the history that Ruchel had accumulated in this world.
Since he was a special person, such a trivial record was even more thrilling.
thud.
There was a heavy sound.
“huh? Ah…”
The light pouring through the hole disappeared and he quickly realized that the hole was closed.
Could this also be Canid’s trick?
However, Ban Yu-Won’s eyes saw through all the darkness, so there was no reason to panic when the hole was closed.
“Eunghuhu.”
A bewitching laugh was heard.
The moment he heard that, Ban Yu-won realized that his calculations were wrong from the start.
“Did you pretend to sleep?”
“Was Yu-won fooled?”
Ruchel, who had been held in his arms, was clasping his neck with both arms before he knew it, and facing him at a distance where their noses could touch.
“I’m sure you’re asleep… with my powers.”
“Then you’re telling me you lied to me. Gumihos are famous for deceiving people. Did you know?”
“You learned that.”
“It would have been impossible in the past when I was a half-penny. This is all thanks to Yuwon.”
Even in the dark, I could see Lucille’s smiling face.
Ban Yu-won calmly raised the white flag, thinking that my power was still far away.
Soon, Lucille’s beautiful smile filled his vision.
