Chapter 19: Chaos at the Training Ground

“That white-haired woman… is probably the servant of that young master beside her…”

“I don’t know which family’s young master he is, but don’t hurt him and bring his family down on us.”

“I actually think that servant isn’t bad. She’d be a good fit for a Warrior Class.”

“Archbishop Zilan, what do you think?”

Archbishop Zilan…

She had dazzling purple hair, wore round gold-rimmed glasses, and was dressed in bishop’s robes.

Her full chest stretched the robe, and her beautiful face gazed at Joey on the training ground…

A trace of killing intent flashed through Zilan’s originally gentle and holy eyes when she saw Joey, but it quickly returned to normal.

She pushed her round glasses and spoke:

“That child might be interesting too…”

She raised her pale hand, pointing at Joey.

“According to the Prophecy, the Saint Child might descend among these children.”

Saint Child…

Upon hearing this name, all the teachers present had a gleam in their eyes, swallowing as they looked at Joey.

Except for one…

“Saint Child? What’s so great about that…”

It was the voice of a Drunken Woman.

Everyone turned to look at her.

The woman wore classic warrior armor, a longsword at her waist, and a high ponytail.

Her beautiful face was slightly flushed from alcohol.

She held an Aluminum Flask in her hand, took a sip without caring about the stares around her.

“Just a toy for you Silver Disciples and the military to vent with…”

“Cough…”

Within the Scholars, an older woman said, “Teacher Kail, this is a public place. Please watch your words.”

“Heh…”

The drunken woman called Kail replied:

“Watch my words? When a dark and filthy identity like Saint Child is already Preordained… Why should I be careful?”

“Don’t talk nonsense!”

Another Full of Youthful Vigor Female Instructor pointed at Kail and scolded:

“The Saint Child just has a special way of healing people! The greatness of the Saint Child lies in sacrificing chastity to save the world!!!”

“What right does a Drunken Woman who can only maintain Magic by drinking have to sully the title of Saint Child!!!”

Upon hearing that last part, Kail’s eyes instantly turned cold, but she shrugged indifferently and took another sip…

In an instant, her Enchanted Longsword sprang from its sheath and embedded itself in the wall behind the Full of Youthful Vigor Female Instructor.

“Ahh… I’m such a Drunken Woman, sorry. Learned a little from Dashaguo, how did I accidentally release Sword Intent after drinking too much…”

!!!

The Full of Youthful Vigor Female Instructor broke out in a cold sweat.

She hadn’t even sensed any Magic being activated…

So… scary…

“Alright, everyone…”

Seeing this, Archbishop Zilan waved her hand.

“Let’s focus on the trainees instead…”

“May the Divine Being bless them.”

Archbishop Zilan placed her hand over her full chest, which, like a soft pillow, sank under her touch.

Training ground…

Aiki hadn’t even used her full strength. Just her long legs were enough to leave the trainees utterly defeated.

“This… This is too strong…”

One of the female trainees stared at Aiki, who was elegantly holding a Sun Parasol.

“It must be…”

“That little shota!”

“It must be that little shota secretly giving his servant the Divine Blessing of the Sage!”

“Otherwise, how could that woman be so strong!!!”

Huh?

What’s in these trainees’ heads…

Joey watched as a group of female trainees charged at him like hungry wolves.

How should I defeat them…

I don’t even like being a Sage…

Maybe knock them all out, stack them into a small mountain, and sit on top!

Then the Warrior Class instructors would definitely look at me differently!

Just like a Dragon Overlord plot in a novel…

This is fun.

Let’s do it…

Just as Joey was gearing up to attack—

“Hey!!! Is this how you treat the only male trainee in the Training Ground?”

At that moment, a beautiful girl stood in front of Joey, pointing her Enchanted Longsword at the crowd.

“Have the citizens of Entia Kingdom forgotten even the most basic etiquette of a lady?”

“Why does she sound so stiff? Oh, she’s a Blockhead from the Kingdom of Chunai…”

Among those preparing to attack Joey, a gorgeously dressed girl laughed.

“What? Are you trying to uphold your Kingdom of Chunai traditions? Hero saves beauty, then has her repay him with her body?”

“Don’t misunderstand. I just can’t stand you bullying the weak.”

Hey hey…

Who are you…

Joey frowned at the stern beauty standing protectively in front of him.

Don’t block this young master’s chance to show off…

But this isn’t bad either…

Joey suddenly thought.

If I pretend to be some troublemaking beauty and let these idiots fight for me…

He snickered.

“So…so scary!!!”

Taking the chance, Joey put on a tearful, trembling expression, then grabbed the stern beauty’s arm.

“These… Entia Kingdom girls look like they’re going to eat me!!!”

That’s right! According to Joey and Seiya’s background, they were from a subordinate village of the Kingdom of Chunai, so now’s the time to use hometown bonds to win over this stern beauty.

Joey raised his watery eyes, pursing his red lips.

“I… I didn’t do anything wrong… Why does everyone want to hurt me…”

The boy’s pitiful look made the stern beauty blush.

“You’re… from the Kingdom of Chunai too?”

“You noticed? Big sister…”

Joey shook the beauty’s arm excitedly.

“No wonder… it sounds…”

He buried his head shyly.

“So reassuring…”

So… cute…

The beauty was flustered, taking a deep breath, about to say something more to Joey—

“Careful!”

An Arrow shot toward the beauty, and Joey quickly pushed her aside, taking the hit with his shoulder.

Because Joey’s stats were too high, the Arrow couldn’t hurt this little demon king, but for the sake of acting…

“Ugh!!!”

Joey forced out a pained cry.

“Are you alright!”

The beauty rushed over and hugged Joey.

“N-no… I’m fine, I couldn’t help anyway…”

The shota looked at the beauty with gentle eyes.

“But… the warmth I never felt at home, I felt from you, big sister…”

“So nice…”

Joey said softly.

In a second, he’d crafted his own backstory…

He was a little master from the Kingdom of Chunai, but his family favored girls over boys, fearing he’d affect his sister’s inheritance, so they sent him to a school in neighboring Entia Kingdom.

There he met a hometown beauty and thoroughly played with her feelings…

He snickered.

What a villain…

“Don’t worry… With me here, I won’t let you get hurt…”

The Full of Youthful Vigor Female Instructor couldn’t resist the boy’s tenderness.

She gritted her teeth and stood up, facing the other trainees.

“You uncivilized lot, today…”

She raised her Enchanted Longsword.

“I’ll teach you what true lady’s etiquette is!”

Oh oh…

Pretty cool…

Joey thought as he watched.

At the side, Aiki knowingly picked up her parasol and stood next to Joey.

“Young master is tricking another girl again.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. This is the bond between fellow villagers. You know nothing.”

“Young master is a bad man.”

Aiki replied coldly.

“Shut up!”

Joey retorted irritably, then looked at the beauty with determined eyes.

To protect the boy she liked, she was going to fight the entire Entia Kingdom!

This is exciting…

So much fun…

The beauty raised her Enchanted Longsword before her face like a knight.

“Come at me, all of you…”

“I’ll defeat every last one…”

“This arrogant woman! After we take her down, let’s humiliate that boy in front of her, sisters!!!”

The trainees shouted, raising their weapons and charging at the beauty.

But the beauty didn’t flinch, facing the crowd like a general before a thousand troops.

Just as the two sides were about to clash…

“Woohoo!!!”

Chiyang transformed her greatsword into a small motorcycle and crashed through everyone.

Including Joey and the stern beauty…

“So satisfying!!!”

“This Arya is a genius!!!”
