Dragon Master: The SSS-Ranked School Belle Asked Me To Contract Her - Chapter 56

Chapter 56: Changes

The Second Dormitory was as bleak as usual. If anyone from afar saw it, they wouldn’t notice any changes, however, if they entered it, they would notice how much it had changed.

A single room was on the top floor of the Second Dormitory. It had been renovated the most, and many pieces of furniture were placed in proper places.

Looking into a tall mirror which had cracked from one side, Veer was combing his sleek black hair while humming a song of his old world.

As usual, his black hair suited perfectly with his pale skin and his handsome face, which seemed to have become even more charming than before.

It had almost been a month since he had arrived at the Starlight Academy, and the Selections were nearing now. The next day would be the official start, and they would be notified of how it would proceed.

But for now, he was free and had finally taken a break after a month of hard work. He smiled, as he thought about the one full month of nothing but training.

“I still can’t believe I became this much stronger in just a single month,” Veer grinned, as he felt the power coursing through his veins.

He had not wasted a single second in the last month and practised till his body broke, literally. He had to rely on his system; otherwise, he wouldn’t be even able to participate in the Selections.

He couldn’t help it, as his curiosity and fascination towards Magic was just too much. The thrilling feeling after he achieved something or found something was too addictive for him to let it pass.

So, even when his body broke and his bones shattered due to his Mana Circulation Technique, he never gave up. Yes, he had even doubled his efforts in practising the Primordial Arcane Forge.

Veer knew that he didn’t have time to waste, as his enemies were already strong, and they wouldn’t give him enough time to grow.

So, he was using every second he had to improve.

“Ah! Why did I get this as a reward?” Veer grumbled as he looked at his face which seemed to attract just anyone.

It was the result of something he had gotten from his Wife Doting System. A passive ability, to be exact.

As he sighed once again, the system decided to taunt him by showing the ability description again.

[Charm’s Aura]

[Tier – None]

[Type – Ability]

[Effect – Passive]

[Description – You gain an increase of 10% in charm.]

[Addition – When you are with your wives, the increase is 20%]

For him, this was a useless ability, and he even wondered if he should have waited some more time to let it accumulate. After all, he already had a handsome face.

“Haa! I’m even more handsome now. I feel pity towards all those girls who will fall for me,” Veer lamented. “Unfortunately, I have to reject you all because I’m already married.”

[..]

Shaking his head in disappointment, Veer once again gave a glance at his face and smirked. Winking at his own reflection, he left his room and descended the wooden stairs that were now polished very well.

His subordinates had used all of the material they got from the Third Dormitory and utilized it very well to renovate the inside of their home.

Everyone had a variety of Aspects, and many of them came to use in such things. There was even a guy who could easily grind things, no matter how hard or heavy they were.

As he came to the ground floor, he found it completely empty with no one in sight. However, he wasn’t surprised as he knew they had one last meeting in the Serene Lotus Park before the Selections.

Others had already gathered there, and only he was left. And he did that intentionally with a single simple thought.

“The boss should have a late cool entrance.”

He got scolding from his wives for this, but he still decided to do it. So, now he was exiting the Second Dormitory to go there.

As he stepped outside the Second Dormitory, the morning sun greeted him by throwing sunlight right on his face, blinding him for a moment.

Veer shook his head and began to walk while looking down, thinking of the things he needed to do for the day. However, his steps came to a halt when he noticed a group walking before him.

As if sensing him, the group also stopped and turned around. A tall, blonde man with a heavy presence turned around and came towards Veer, his eyes flickering in surprise as he looked at him.

His lips curled up as he said, “I really didn’t misjudge you, huh. Reaching the Beginner Stage in just one month, I should have expected such from an S-Rank Aspect awakener.”

Veer smiled, and replied, “I can say the same for you. I thought you’ll be a dumbass and spend time messing around, but you actually locked yourself up. I was very disappointed, you know.”

As they conversed, they let their presence known to the world. When one formed a Mana Core, they automatically began to take the atmospheric Mana to replenish their Mana reserves.

But this time, in much more intensity. Not only this but by forming a Mana Core, one becomes more connected with the world, which results in them having an attention-gathering presence.

‘Ah! Shit! I thought he’ll be a young master, but this guy is no joke,’ Veer was smiling, but his thoughts were different. He could feel Carlson’s presence and knew he was stronger than him.

However, that only excited him as he stepped forward and passed by Carlson. His voice left a small echo in the empty Dormitories, “I hope you don’t disappoint me in the Selections.”

Carlson didn’t move from his position hearing that. Noticing his change in attitude, Aron came close to him to say something, but his words choked in his throat when he saw Carlson’s expression.

With an insane grin that reached ear to ear, Carlson was trying to control his excitement as he muttered, “Good! Good! I thought it’d be a boring competition, but I guess there are some new toys I can play with.”

Aron felt a chill run down his spine as he simply backed away.
