Chapter 1677: Group Study? Why not?
August, Shin, Thor, and Julius were still discussing who would be suitable to become August's concubine or mistress, which caused August to realize how troublesome it was being teased by his own people and how difficult it was to mess with Haru. Still, their talk ended after the teacher came and started the homeroom, and he also told them that once they were done, he would show them the school.
As expected, the homeroom was very fast, and everyone was led outside by the teacher.
"It's a quick tour. The school is broadly divided into two buildings -- one of them being the classroom building, where your classroom is, and the other one has the faculty offices, the student council room, as well as the rooms used for laboratories and study group," the teacher said.
Haru looked at Shin and thought it was his chance to learn under both the Wise Man (Merlin Wolford) and the Guru (Melinda Brown) by using both Shin and the study group.
The teacher introduced various study groups such as "The Attack Magic Group Study," "The Quality of Life Study Group," and the "Body Language Study Group."
Haru had seen many weird things, so he didn't even feel surprised by some of the weird study groups that came out from the teacher's mouth. He then looked at Shin and asked, "Shin, do you have a study group that you want to join?"
Yuri, Lynn, Sicily, and Maria looked at Haru and wondered what this guy wanted to do by suddenly asking Shin about the study group.
Shin shook his head and said, "No, not especially."
August sighed and said, "Yeah, I suppose not. You wouldn't find any of them to be a challenge."
Shin showed a troubled expression and said, "No, it's not that..."
August smiled and suddenly said, "Here's a better idea. Why don't you start on your own?"
"What?!" Shin's pupils enlarged, and he showed a shocked expression.
The teacher seemed interested in August's idea and said, "A study group that Wolford creates? That would be fascinating."
"Sure, it would, Teacher." August nodded and moved closer to Shin with a smile and said, "It would be interesting to see what kind of the study group Shin would start and what activities it would have."
Haru also moved closer and said with a smile, "Indeed, it would be interesting, and if you make one, then I'd like to join immediately."
"Then me too!" Yuri quickly helped Haru, hugging his arm, and looked at Shin with a smile. She wasn't sure why Haru was interested in Shin since she knew that Haru was stronger than Shin, but since Haru wanted to learn from Shin, then she would help him.
"I'd like to join too!" Lynn said without hesitation, following both Haru and Yuri.
The rest also followed since they were interested in learning under Shin, known as the grandson of the Wise Man and the Guru.
The teacher also nodded and told them that he would take care of the rest. He also told them that he would become their advisor teacher for their study group too.
"If Shin is the group's president, then what is the most suitable name to be?" Thor suddenly raised a question.
"I'd never said that I agree!" Shin was helpless, but as expected, he didn't show a reluctant expression and would agree as long as someone pushed him enough.
"Well, since we're going to work on mastering all kinds of magic, with Shin as our focus, how about we name it an "Ultimate Magic Study Group"?" Haru directly said without shame since he knew that it was part of his quests.
Shin was lost for words at that moment, but everyone was very excited.
August nodded with a thoughtful expression and said, "Sure. The Ultimate Magic Study Group. That would be perfect for you, Shin."
"What?" Shin was dumbfounded. "Wait a moment! Wait a moment!"
The teacher was also very excited and then asked, "All who want to join, then raise your hands!"
"Me!" Everyone decided to join without hesitation.
Shin looked at everyone and could only show a helpless expression.
While all the members of the S-Class were very excited about their study group, the investigators, the leaders of the armies, and even the King of the Earlshide Kingdom had a serious discussion about a demon that appeared around the kingdom.
"What?! Demon appearances have increased this much in the last year?!"
"What is that? If demons are proliferating, there should be more than enough commotion throughout the kingdom."
"However, I haven't even heard any rumors of that happening."
The king of the Earlshide Kingdom read the report then looked at the Chief of Military Affairs, Dominic Gastolle. "What do you mean, Dominic?"
Dominic had a serious expression on his face and said, "If you look over the daily reports, I'm sure that it will be clear. The daily increase in demons has been extremely slight. It's been a little by little, within the margin of error, but it definitely has been increasing."
"Hmm..."
"The way it's been increasing, slowly enough to avoid our notice..." Dominic frowned and said, "This is nothing more than my own personal speculation, but I get the impression that it's artificially induced."
"Ridiculous! There's no way this increase in demons could be man-made!"
"Your Majesty, these are unusual circumstances. We need an immediate investigation."
The king of Earlshide closed his eyes for a bit and nodded. "All right. Enlist the Demon Hunter's Society thoroughly investigates this!"
"As you command!"
When Haru, Yuri, and Lynn returned, the two girls looked at Haru, wondering why he had done all of that before.
"You're curious why I've done that?" Haru asked.
Lynn and Yuri nodded.
"My intention is clear, right? I just want to learn from Shin," Haru said since he really didn't have any other intention other than learning from Shin. After all, even though he was talented (narcissistic), he learned all of his knowledge about magic from the book, and for the rest, he learned it by himself. Still, Shin was different since that guy was being taught by Merlin Wolford, the strongest magician, and Melinda Bowen, the famous Guru who created magical gear through powerful enchantments.
Normally, it would be impossible to learn from the Wise Man and the Guru, but it was possible now, as long as Haru became closer with their grandson, Shin Wolford.
"Well, I understand that you want to learn from the grandson of the Wise Man and the Guru." Lynn pushed the frame of her glasses and asked, "But is that all?"
"Do you think that everything in my head is a conspiracy?" Haru asked speechlessly.
"No, but you're the youngest council member of the Els, after all, so you must be thinking something else, right?" Lynn asked.
"No, I really want to learn from Shin, that's all, nothing else," Haru said.
"But you're stronger than him!" Lynn showed the book given by Haru last night and said, "And this is a bible of all the magicians!" When she read about "Basic Chemistry," she learned there was both cause and result of everything in this world and knew that she would become even stronger once she mastered this knowledge.
"But there's no harm, learning under both the Wise Man and the Guru, after all, they might have a lot of knowledge that we don't know, right?" Haru said.
Lynn and Yuri nodded after hearing Haru's reason, but Lynn wanted to say something again. However, she was stopped by Yuri.
"Let's sleep first. I'm quite sleepy," Yuri said and pulled Haru to their room, but...
"Wait! Wait!"
"Hmm?" 2x
Haru and Yuri looked at Lynn and wondered what this girl wanted to do.
"Can we sleep together?" Lynn pushed the frame of her glasses, lowering her head slightly, hiding her blush, especially after she made this embarrassing request.
"......" Haru and Yuri looked at each other for a while.
"Well, why not?"
After all, it was only time for this petite girl to be eaten by him, then for the first time, the three of them slept together in the same room.
