Beast Taming? Nah, Dragon Herding is Way Better! - Chapter 73

Chapter 73: Head of the Freshmen
Seeing the admiration of the older students towards her, this black-haired charismatic beauty couldn’t help but shake her head with a helpless smile on her face as she allowed the one previously standing beside her to start introducing himself.

As this introduction proceeds, Diluc, along with Michael found out the structure of the academy’s student council, composed only of the president, the vice-president, and the secretary as its core force, along with a head and vice-head on each year of the students, those that follow after the three introduced themselves being those people.

Not paying much of his attention to the identity of the other people there given that he doesn’t even know them, Diluc merely checks whether there is someone that has a draconic progeny among all these people, however, seemingly running out of luck with his encounter with the white-haired beauty of a principal they have, not a single one among them turns out to have draconic progeny after the scan of the Dragon Herding System.

The moment that the head of the freshmen steps into the front of the stage though, he immediately pays attention to this introduction, the elven beauty looking upon the numerous geniuses gathered within this single auditorium isn’t even a bit bothered, in fact, she looks like she is the calmest among all of the students who stepped in front of the crowd, that comparison even including the current student council president herself.

‘Is she even that beautiful previously?’ looking at the enchanting figure of this elven beauty, the emperor-like young man couldn’t help but wonder to himself as he recalled her figure from back when he just rescued her from the caravan that previously kidnapped her, her pale, lean figure from back then completely incomparable to her current curves now.

Despite being of the same age as the other first years such as him, Diluc couldn’t help but think that this elven beauty is mature beyond her own age, having a similar body type if not even curvier than one of the beauties residing within the Draconic Realm, Seraphina, the only difference between them is the fact that while Seraphina stands at a really tall height for a lady, this elven beauty is standing just at an average height, perhaps even a little shorter than average.

While she lacks in the height department though, her body pretty much makes up for it just with her alluring, hourglass-shaped curves alone, the explosiveness of her figure was something that made all of the students within the auditorium, whether they’re male or female, stunned, their mouths borderline drooling as they admire this magnificent view.

While the students are acting like that, the staff aren’t any better really, the only thing that manages to keep their hold to themselves is the fact that they are already used to seeing such a beauty since the principal is of the same, if not even a bit higher level than this elven beauty, of course, that is when this white-haired horned beauty is in her adult form.

What makes her the greatest appealing person among all of the student council members is her mesmerizing face, a goose egg-shaped, milky white, small face adorned with a fairly large, almond eyes, her large, gem-like emerald green eyes perfectly depicting one that can be called an elven aesthetic of beauty, her blonde, long eyelashes as well as her willow eyebrows improving the charm of those eyes even more, said eyebrows connected to her cute straight nose leading to her sexy, light red lips, a smile etched on them as if there’s not a single difficult thing that just happened to her previously.

Crowning her head are the thick locks of wavy, long blonde hair cascading all the way down her hips, her hair really smooth and shiny, the testament to this claim being the fact that it seems like it is reflecting the very minimal light coming out of the spotlight directed to her.

‘It’s been a few days, Alea’ seeing her current appearance, being on what it seem to be her healthy appearance all while donning the uniform given to them, Diluc couldn’t help but mutter to himself with a smile on his face as he stares at this elven beauty openly, still completely unaware of the fact that she is the princess of the neighboring Elven Kingdom due north of their Flammenherz Kingdom.

Meanwhile, despite being a man as well, Michael himself doesn’t seem to be all too interested in this elven beauty’s appearance, a testament to that being the fact that he seems to be even calmer than Diluc himself, who had already come in contact and got to know a considerable number of beauty equal, if not above the elf’s level of beauty and charm.

Back on the stage, the elven princess is currently scanning through the numerous students within the auditorium, her gaze mostly on the people within the first years, her eyes seemingly looking for someone specific in there, not even a single doubt of him not passing the first part of the entrance exam appearing in her mind.

‘If he fails, I might as well leave this place…’ the elven beauty thought to herself as even though they had only known each other for quite a short time, she herself knows the significance of the twin path of power that this young man walks, and seeing that he is successful in treading this path, even if it is just an initial success, she knows how much more potential and talent he has compared to her.

After her eyes roamed for a while, she finally found the young man she was looking for, his emperor-like demeanor made him unmistakable among the crowd, not to mention his tall stature along with his outstandingly handsome face, and that measure of handsome is even using the elven standards, famed for being harsh critiques of beauty.

Spotting his face among the crowd, she sent out a faint smile towards him, something that she had done so quickly and modestly that had it not been for her being a beauty worthy of everyone paying their entire attention to her, no one, except for the intended recipient of it, would even notice.

‘Just who is that lucky guy!?’ immediately thinking that this is a competitor that already gets a head start and moves away from them, the ones confident enough to even think of pursuing this elven beauty immediately directed their gaze towards the favored one of this beauty, their gazes paling as they saw the height of this person that the lady is looking at, not to mention the unrivaled appearance that made them quite doubtful of their own handsome that won multiple ladies inside and even outside the academy.

Meanwhile, the target of their supposed scrutiny felt their gazes landing upon him, this young man, Diluc, was even prepared to let out some of his mana to pressure and scare these guys, but seeing that they pulled their gazes back away from him, he chooses not to, only, it made him wonder just why is it that they suddenly stopped checking him out.

After this, watching most of the young men who had already proclaimed their ‘love’ for her before the academic year even start feeling quite depressed after seeing the emperor-like young man, the elven princess, Alea, couldn’t help but smile once again, but this time a meaningful one sent towards Diluc once again, the young man’s wits allowing him to figure out what is it that is currently happening.

‘Nice job, you used me quite well, didn’t you?’ revealing a wry smile on his face, the young man couldn’t help but think to himself as he stared back at this elven beauty, someone whom he thought of as an innocent one, not really expecting that she is quite the scheming type as well.

Seeing the smile on her sole male friend’s face, Alea, despite not really understanding exactly what is currently in his mind, gets the general gist of what is happening inside of it, making her reveal an apologetic expression that she so masterfully conceals as she starts her introduction.

‘Sorry, I had no choice, I’ll repay you somehow later’ she thought to herself as she showed the emperor-like young man that expression, her words, despite not being conveyed clearly, reached Diluc, who got the general idea of her thought as well.

Standing in front of all these students, Alea is not even a single bit nervous, the reason? Her mother is the queen monarch of the Elven Kingdom, the greatest figure and pillar of their kingdom, and she, as the elven princess and her daughter, is the sole successor of this kingdom with might rivaling that of the Flammenherz Kingdom, and because of this, she is someone who has practiced standing and speaking in front of numerous people more than just a hundred of times, so despite her seemingly gentle and cool demeanor, she is a lady who is already so used to this kind of things.
