Of course, I’ve witnessed the strange scene of gathering energy into squares.
Thinking of the refined-looking Bendy, Won smartly knocked on the door.
Bendy, who was busy organizing the prepared items, jolted in surprise.
Looks like a wolf. Bendy’s lips slowly opened as he repeated deep breaths.
“Please come in.”
Thanks to countless practices, a calm voice flowed out.
Thump, Wons footsteps froze as he opened the door. Soon, like a water droplet falling into a lake, ripples spread gently on the calm surface.
“……”
On the guest table were sweet potato cakes for refreshments, and the wall had cheerful messages like ‘Welcome’.
The student council president, who had prepared for the party, was in a state of caution rather than sitting at his desk for work.
Furthermore, his tense expression didn’t match the party atmosphere at all.
“……Ha.”
Perplexed, Won shed his black hair across his forehead.
It’s not like we have a close enough relationship to prepare such a grand surprise.
I’ve never experienced such a grand welcoming ceremony, not even on my childhood birthday.
The poorly hung paper decorations fell to the floor with a rustling sound.
At the same time, Ren’s haphazard advice echoed in Won’s mind. He’s such a jerk.
After a while, Won, who was absentmindedly staring at the welcoming message adorned with flower patterns, took a seat on the sofa.
The plush guest cushion welcomed his arrival.
Unlike Bendy, who was on high alert, this was undoubtedly an elaborate and exquisite reception.
Another eccentricity of mine.
Won began to understand why Ren frequently brought up the student council president lately. It seemed like he fell into a trap set by the bored Baekho.
Golden eyes, which had lingered on the handmade sweet potato cake on the table, now focused on Bendy hiding in the storage room.
Without saying a word, I tapped the table with my finger, and Bendy pretended not to see it blatantly.
What is he up to? With his veins bulging on his forehead, Won recalled Ren’s words before coming here. “Handle it gently because he is easily scared.”
Cajoled by force from the storage room, Won felt awkward organizing the documents he brought.
Without taking any particular action, the sound of Bendy taking deep breaths could be heard from the direction of the storage room.
A moment of respite. Soon, the student council president, who had become one with the wall, wobbled and began to move.
It seemed like he didn’t want to interrupt his challenging journey, so Won pretended not to notice and turned to the next page of the documents.
Rustle, it didn’t take long for the president’s long journey to come to an end with a small movement.
Bendy, who had successfully mustered all his strength to sit across from him, anxiously clasped his hands.
“He is really a wolf.”
In addition to his black hair and flashy golden eyes, he had fangs that would make a deer have to enter the gates.
With his breath stuck in his throat, Bendy barely relaxed his body.
It’s fortunate, perhaps. Unlike Ren, who laughs frequently, Won maintained an expressionless face throughout, so the wolf’s fangs were hardly visible.
Feeling much relieved, she began to scrutinize Won with curious eyes.
The first wolf she ever encountered was,
“…What’s wrong with you?”
Excessively beautiful.
I never thought a carnivorous merfolk would look like that.
The golden eyes, fixed on the documents, seemed like gold, and the tightly closed red lips had a knack for fascinating waterfolk.
Won lifted his head, feeling a penetrating gaze.
For some reason, Bendy, with slightly parted lips, had a vacant expression.
“To face something like this.”
He felt for the first time that the future of this academy was uncertain.
The merfolk academy is the top educational institution on the mainland and a place that possesses talents to lead the continent in the future.
