Chapter 548: Eungwang High entrance exam (10)

Support Ex-Rank

Hwangmyeong mansion, lunchtime.

It was the day of the written examination at Eungwang High.

The descendants came to the table, their faces showing great excitement.

Perhaps because it’s been a while since they’ve been outside, the two descendants who are set to take the test looked more excited than nervous.

When Hwangho sat at the head of the table after cooking, the descendants greeted him brightly.

“Little Hwangho-nim! Eat well!”

“Wow, everything looks delicious. You said it was difficult for you to cook in that form though…”

“This much is nothing. Make sure to chew well.”

Hwangho, in the appearance of the young Hwang Yuho, was pleased as he served the food.

He used to vacuum wrap food and move them with magic, saying that it was difficult to operate things with his short limbs.

Now, he seemed to have gotten used to it.

Hwangho played with the steak knife that he held, not suited at all for his appearance.

His words didn’t sound like they belong to an elementary student either.

“Jeokho will hide his presence and guard you guys. It will be difficult to make friends if other students notice that you’re being treated like VIPs.”

It seems that the Tiger Clan is reluctant to openly guard the descendants while they are in school.

Indeed, they would go to school to enjoy their school life — sending open guards wherever they went would hinder that.

Hwangho was considerate of the descendants, but the children spoke quite maturely.

“We don’t mind! Please do what you think is best.”

“Yes, I’m happy just to be able to go to school.”

“I heard from Euishin oppa that you don’t really hide your identity at school, Hwangho-nim. But you’re getting along well with your classmates.”

Did Jo Euishin say that?

It wasn’t likely that Jo Euishin would candidly talk about Hwangho on his own.

It was obvious that the descendants begged him to talk about how Hwangho was at school.

Nevertheless, Hwangho liked the fact that Jo Euishin thinks that he was getting along well with their classmates.

“I have a good friend so I didn’t feel the need to hide my identity. We’ll see if you guys are lucky too.”

“But I heard that everyone from Class Zero gets along well. Year Two and Three do a lot of group activities from what I heard.”

“…That’s true, but class assignments aren’t set yet.”

Before class assignments were the entrance examination, but the descendants seemed to be sure that they’d pass and be assigned to Class Zero.

Considering their capabilities, it was natural that they’d pass.

If Hwangho moves around some things, the descendants could get assigned to Class Zero too.

‘Jo Euishin and I are in Class Zero.’

Hwangho remembered that he assigned Jo Euishin to Class Zero when he heard words tantamount to intimidation.

If someone asks him if he regrets it or not, Hwangho would answer no without hesitation.

Hwangho and Jo Euishin ended up in the same class, and they experienced many things together.

Considering that Jo Euishin encountered so many crises, Hwangho felt rather sorry.

But he doesn’t regret it.

‘It’s not easy to repay the benefactor.’

Perhaps it’s because he was lost in thought while in the appearance of Hwang Yuho, he looked like he was thinking about what side dish he’d eat next.

After lunch, the descendants’ chat continued.

“You’ll put us in Class Zero right away if we ask, right Hwangho-nim? But you can’t! That would be our last resort.”

“That’s right! Euishin hyung wanted us to take the entrance exam on our own. We’ll get into Class Zero by catching the attention of the interviewers.”

Eun Iho and Eun Seoho showed their motivation for the interview.

The descendants declared that they wouldn’t borrow Hwangho’s powers proudly.

“Come to think of it, we’d easily get into Class Zero if we’re seen with bodyguards from the Tiger Clan…”

“…Should I think about how to stand out now?”

Following Eun Seoho and Eun Iho, Eun Jaeho said something candid with envious eyes.

Hwangho decided to change the subject.

“Jeokho is getting ready. He’ll be disappointed if his schedule suddenly changes, so we’ll stick with the plan.”

“Alright!”

With Hwangho and Eun Jaeho seeing off the descendants, the kids headed to Eungwang High to take their exams.

When they passed the maze garden and crossed the main gate over the golden fence, a red fog floated and disappeared in front of them.

It was a sign that Jeokho was with them.

Eun Seoho and Eun Iho waved their hands and stepped outside where they saw the red fog appear for a moment.

“How long has it been since we went outside?”

“It’s the first time since we visited Eushin oppa’s parents to give flowers!”

Although they knew that Jeokho was around, the two felt as if they had liberty.

The two strolled, enjoying the outside air.

They wanted to run and head to Eungwang High right away, but they also wanted to enjoy the scenery.

“It’s Eungwang High!”

Eun Iho exclaimed when she found the front gate and the white clock tower.

The first-born Eun Seoho has been to the school before.

However, unlike now, he couldn’t afford to see and appreciate the scenery.

He was just as amazed as Eun Iho who’s never seen the school before.

“It’s so cool…!”

Eungwang High in Eungwang District.

Almost everything in the city was named after Eunho.

Eunho’s descendants were bound to be touched.

“Do you want to take a look around our school? I wonder how it looks out there.”

“I think it’ll take us a long time. I don’t think we — Oh, let’s go to the west gate! I want to see MITRON!”

“Let’s go!”

The siblings made their way to the west gate, flustering Jeokho a little.

Nevertheless, Jeokho watched the two with satisfaction.

He was there to protect them in case anything happens, so he intended to keep the two safe no matter what.

“Wow, this is really something. It’s crowded out of all days. Do we need to set an appointment in advance…!”

Soon enough, the siblings wanted to see Eungwang High from a high place.

The two climbed the Cheonik Mountain and that’s where they ran into someone.

It was a woman with thick hair, groaning on her own.

Her energy waves were obviously strong as sparks began to appear with every annoyed sigh.

Eun Seoho and Eun Iho’s eyes opened wide.

The woman was of royal lineage.

The woman also noticed the two and looked their way.

Eun Seoho and Eun Iho made eye contact with the woman with thick hair.

‘We were told to run away if we encounter an unknown royal lineage outside…’

‘Jeokho-nim isn’t doing anything though, so I guess it’s okay?’

Eun Seoho and Eun Iho judged that they were safe.

Seeing that Jeokho showed no signs of stopping them, they decided to say hello.

“Hello? May we ask who you are?”

The latter sentence wasn’t a greeting, but since the two were bowing, it seemed like so.

However, the woman looked like she wasn’t seeing anything.

“A descendant asking me… No, don’t ask me anything! I’m leaving!”

“What? Hey, wait! Who are you?”

The clumsy woman disappeared in an instant.

It was a speed that Eun Seoho and Eun Iho’s eyes couldn’t follow.

Jeokho didn’t show up until the end and even after the woman disappeared, so the two decided that there was no problem and started walking again.

“Since it was around Eungwang High, maybe she was a school official?”

“I don’t think she’s from the Tiger Clan though…”

They couldn’t stop by MITRON in the end, but they were satisfied with seeing the winter desserts displayed through the window.

When the two passed through the gate…

“…!”

“Oh?”

The two ran into a non-human again.

This time, unlike the clumsy woman, they knew the person.

It was Yeom Junyeol, a descendant of the Dragon Clan and current student representative of Eungwang High.

Although they’ve never met in person, the two knew Yeom Junyeol from all the shows that he appears on.

Yeom Junyeol seemed surprised, but he kindly smiled with his eyes bent.

“Hi, so you are those kids. I heard from Jegun hyung.”

“Hello!”

After recognizing each other, the descendants began to exchange greetings.

It was their first meeting, but they were happy with each other as both sides didn’t have a lot of chances to meet with fellow descendants.

Yeom Junyeol liked Eun Seoho and Eun Iho’s bright attitude.

The same was true of the tiger descendants.

“We were curious about the school so we asked Euishin hyung a lot of things. He said that the student representative was a very good person. He said you were diligent and competent.”

“Euishin said that? I see…!”

Yeom Junyeol looked very happy at the mention of Jo Euishin.

Eun Seoho and Eun Iho brought up the story because they were fond of Jo Euishin too.

The descendants quickly became friends.

“Seoho and Iho, right? Feel free to call me if anything happens.”

“Yes!”

“See you around, Junyeol hyung!”

While parting ways with Yeom Junyeol and heading to the test site, they encountered a few more non-humans.

One was Yong Jegun flying in the sky, and the other was Kim Shinrok who was rather dissatisfied at the sight.

When Kim Shinrok found the two, his folded face immediately turned bright as he exchanged friendly greetings.

When Yeom Junyeol landed though, his face became grim again.

“There are a lot of non-humans since it’s Eungwang High, right?”

“Yeah, I don’t think we’re very unusual. What should we do?”

“I don’t think we’ll stand out much even if we reveal that we’re descendants…”

Eun Seoho and Eun Iho’s worries grew.

When they arrived in front of the test site, they saw a couple of Year Three Class Zero students giggling as they threw around what seemed to be brochures.

They became uneasy when they saw students from the autonomous organizations chasing their seniors.

“Oh no! I don’t think we’ll get into Class Zero!”

“They say this is a collection of tips? I think we’ll get better chances if we refer to this!”

Looking at the history of Woo Kihwan and his class, the two began to ponder.

They read the Collection of Eungwang High Tips for New Students several times and…

“Let’s find the energy of the universe!”

“Our strength alone may not be enough, so let’s borrow the power of Euishin oppa! He’s our Class Zero senior after all!”

Jeokho sighed silently when he saw the two make up their minds.

They were very much qualified to be Class Zero students already, but the two didn’t seem satisfied yet.

And so the two’s adventure toward finding the energy of the universe began.
