Chapter: 124

It was now close to dinner time. The cafeteria was crowded with cadets who were busy eating. They were all smiling as their internal energy had increased greatly from absorbing the Black Dragon Ball. But those cadets who had not achieved the thirty years worth of energy were gloomy, since having that much was the basic requirement to learn the Seven Demon Sword.

That’s when everyone turned to the person walking in. It was the 18th cadet, Bakgi. He was alone, unlike the other group leader worthy cadets. He took a seat in an empty corner and began to eat.

Someone then sat down in front of him. Bakgi did not look up.

“Hey, 18th cadet.”

Bakgi then raised his face. It was Chun Kungwun, the prince from the Sword Clan.

“What is it?”

“I watched your duel.”

Bakgi placed his chopsticks on the bowl and glared at Chun Kungwun.

‘How dare he?’

Chun Kungwun did not like Bakgi’s attitude. Most cadets were always polite toward him since he was still a prince, but Bakgi wasn’t like that.

“I am eating. What do you want?”

Bakgi was curt. Chun Kungwun became angrier, but he kept his calm.

“Hmph. I noticed you were at the master level.”

Bakgi was appalled. It seemed like he had seen the qi too. This meant that Chun Kungwun was also a master.

“I like your skill. I think you want to be a group leader, but don’t you want to go up higher?”

“Ah...” Bakgi sighed as he realized Chun Kungwun’s intentions. He was offering him to join his group. Bakgi then began to eat. Chun Kungwun frowned, but he wasn’t the type to show his anger in front of everyone else.

“Well, you think about it.”

Chun Kungwun left and Bakgi focused on the food. This was the second time already. When he was on his way to the training room, Chun Yuchan had already come up to him, offering a spot in his group. Bakgi refused since he wasn’t interested in joining the princes’ groups. All he wanted was to become strong.

He kept eating while he was irritated, until someone sat in front of him again.

“I’m sorry, but can we talk?”

‘Ugh... again?’

Bakgi sighed. If he had known that this would happen, he would not have challenged instructor in front of everyone else. He spat at the cadet.

“Not interested. Get lost.”

“...Hm.”

The cadet moaned. It was Chun Yeowun.

There were three ways to find other cadets in the academy. One was to hope to meet them by coincidence, but it became much harder after the private training rooms had been opened. The second was to go to their room, but it wasn’t a good way since many of the students would be asleep. The last way was to find them at the cafeteria.

Chun Yeowun took the third way and found Bakgi eating alone. Before he got there, someone walked up to him first.

‘Chun Kungwun?’

It was Chun Kungwun, the Prince of the Sword Clan.

‘Nano, cut out all the noise except for the conversation between those two.’
