Became a Hatchling of the Grand Duke of the North

47 – Academy Entrance Ceremony (2)

Tadadak!

Han ran around with thumping footsteps.

Looking through this window, he quickly jumped up and poked his head out the window on the other side.

Soon, he opened his mouth and exclaimed exclamation.

‘Oh! There are so many people!’

All I could see through the window were the cadets.

All of them were on their way to this dormitory building, carrying heavy luggage, and even a cursory glance showed that their faces were full of anticipation.

Han narrowed his eyes.

‘Everyone seems to be looking forward to life in the academy.’

When I looked at them walking up the dormitory building struggling, each carrying a suitcase as big as his body, they all seemed to be around the same age as Lucia.

Since this is probably the building where the first year students stay, there is no doubt that they are people from all over the continent looking forward to living in the academy.

Han and Lucia, the guardian dragons, came to use the highest floor of the dormitory building.

Others seem to live close together on the lower floors of the 1st and 2nd floors.

No matter how much it is, it is clear to anyone who has thought that the treatment of the grand dukes who rule the vast land of the north cannot be the same.

People watching was quite fun in itself.

Even here, each race seems to be divided, and some of them look like Asians unexpectedly, and some of them look like typical Westerners.

‘Come to think of it, Arcana used to refer to us northerners as northerners. Looking at that, it seems that the races in this world are quite diverse.’

The main characteristic of northerners is that they have skin that looks as white as snow.

Han had never seen a race like this Northerner in his previous life.

They sometimes look like Asians or Westerners depending on the viewing angle, and they have a complex and subtle appearance.

Moreover, that skin color was special.

It was toxic white, like frozen snow or ice.

If I had to question it, it would be a color that is close to pale at first glance.

Maybe it’s because there are so few days when the sun shines.

The color of a person’s skin tends to deepen as the sun hits it.

Because they are northerners who live in a special environment where there is little light and a lot of snow, it may be that they have whiter and clearer skin over a long generation.

Then suddenly.

Han realized a fact he had never known before.

‘By the way, they all look a lot more normal than I thought?’

The place where Han and Lucia stayed was mainly a dormitory where young children and young children of noble families stayed.

So, what is the view looking down through the window right now?

Most of them were pupils from noble families who usually came with a fair number of maids.

However, their appearance was not much different from the memories of their previous lives.

Greatly better or worse. Or it’s not that it’s not that much less or less.

It was just ordinary.

‘Just because they’re aristocrats doesn’t mean they all look as beautiful as Lucrezia or Lucia.’

Well, not everyone can be like his contractors.

No matter how different the world is, if humans live and their individuality exists, it is only natural that there will be differences in their appearance and abilities.

If you think about it, the northerners were basically on the side of the axis with very outstanding appearance.

Moreover, Lucia and Lucrezia were unique.

If I had to judge it, it would be the most outstanding beauty that stands out even in beauty.

Sniff sniff.

Han wiped the bridge of his nose that was tickling in the blowing wind and looked down at them again.

The windows were not made for his height, so high that he could barely see them even if he had to lift his toes.

However, seeing the outside was fun enough on its own.

To such an extent that you don’t even notice the hardships of his short back legs.

It was completely different from the window of the grand duke’s house, where snow and blizzards always blew, making it impossible to see an inch ahead.

There are always various people walking around here. Also, the scenery is completely new.

[Ah, uhm… Read the declaration here…]

From the back side of that resentment.

I heard Lucia’s low muttering voice.

[Key?]

When I turn her head, I see that she is concentrating on something.

He fell from the window at once and ran towards Lucia.

He poked her head out to see what she was reading.

[Ah, Guardian Dragon.]

And only then did Lucia turn her head to him as if she had lost her concentration.

She gently stroked Han’s head as she approached.

[Have you finished looking around the outside?]

[Kiyi.]

Han answered her question with a slow nod of her head.

[Ha. It’s a big deal.]

Seeing Lucia suddenly sighing in worry, when Han looks up at her, she sees a somewhat tense expression on her face.

She glanced at the paper in her hand again and muttered something gloomy.

[Because I took the oath as the representative of the freshmen this time… To be honest, I’m a bit nervous.]

‘Ah, that’s because of that.’

I had heard a limit about that.

He was the one who always stayed close to Lucia.

As much as he is, Han knows just as much about what she sees and hears as she does.

Maybe that’s why, as soon as she arrived at this academy, she couldn’t even look outside and was stuck in her room like this.

‘But don’t worry, Lucia. I’ll help you.’

Go oh oh-.

His eyes, like jewels containing the silver of Han, shone with blue magic for an instant.

He also did it when it came to presentations.

Thanks to that, I was well aware of how nervous and nervous it was.

But with the magic power I learned from Arcana, even that can be solved.

Of course, short-term memory concentration on reading this oath can also be raised in an instant.

Han, with him, cramming is enough to make up for all mistakes even on the eve of the exam.

It was then.

[Kiik?]

Han-eun suddenly turned her head at the presence she felt from beyond the door.

He closed his mouth and began to stare at the front door.

[Hmm? Why are you like that?]

Lucia tilted her head for some reason, as if Han’s appearance was strange.

Smart smart.

From noble mtl dot com

But soon, a knocking sound came from between them.

At the same time, someone’s slightly nervous, trembling voice was also accompanied.

[Ah, hello. My name is La Tale, a 3rd year club manager of ‘Imperial Press EBC’. Perhaps this is the place where the heir of the Grand Duke of the North, the Grand Duke Lucia von Arctus, is staying…?]

[Hmm…?]

A club manager? What media?

At that sudden sound.

Han and Lucia looked at each other for a while with puzzled faces.

* * * *

“Ha ha.”

La Tale, club manager of the Imperial Press EBC.

She let out a heavy sigh.

With her gloomy eyes, her vacant and insolvent seat caught my attention.

Although the seat was vacant now.

At one time, all of those seats had owners.

She recalled back in the day when she first came here as a freshman.

“At that time, the seniors were all occupying those seats one by one…”

But now it wasn’t like that anymore.

I recalled what her senior had left while handing over her manager position to La Tale.

I told you to take good care of this club, and to keep working hard so that the club can continue to thrive.

Somehow, the aftertaste was bitter as I recalled the memory of that time.

At first, it seemed like things were going well.

There were quite a few people in their own way, and La Tale, the head of the club, was also busy every day, running around in socks.

However, the problem was that this Imperial Press EBC club was a club based on a performance bonus system, in which subsidy money came down only when clear results were maintained.

In other words, if there was no proper performance, the bonus would not come down.

Without achievements, there is no money to print newspapers to be published within the academy, nor money to buy necessary items.

This naturally led to the decline and decline of the club.

If you think about it, all of the heads of departments who had served as deans for generations had a corner where money could come from somewhere.

For example, the youngest son of the empire’s leading merchant family.

Otherwise, things like being the heir to a wealthy wizarding family.

Naturally, their wallets were plentiful, so the EBC media club did not shrink, and everyone had to work diligently.

But La Tale, who was in charge of the department this time, wasn’t like that.

It was because she was a mediocre commoner who had no way to expect anything from the power of her family, taking on this department head with only her abilities.

With the gradually decreasing bonus, the club began to shrink, which naturally led to a decrease in the number of members.

But did they say that a crisis is an opportunity?

“Yes. There is nothing that can be solved by just worrying. Anything can only be achieved through direct action.”

She thought of Lucia von Arctus, the heir to the North, who was the most promising prospect for this year.

According to the news, rumors that a guardian dragon had already been born spread all over the empire.

If Lucia came to this academy in the midst of that.

Perhaps, the possibility that the great guardian dragon of yesteryear had now entered this place was so strong that it overflowed.

If we could publish an article about its existence, all the attention of the academy would be on it.

Brilliant light will once again descend upon the club where this spider’s web has landed.
