Chapter 1: Hakuryuu Ren
Kou Academy,a private school ranging from preschool to university, is well known for producing the most promising students. Among these promising students, there are 6 individuals who stand out. 5 of the 6 are dungeon conquerors. Dungeon conquerors are people who have completed a dungeon which are mysterious buildings that hold numerous amounts of treasure, the Dijin of the dungeon being the most valuable. The last one being a magi who are people whom are loved by the rukh. There are currently only 4 magi's in the world.
Inside a certain classroom, the homeroom teacher was trying to calm down his students.
"Now everyone settle down. You may not know this, but starting today we're having a new classmate." The teacher informed his class.
"Come in. Don't be shy." The teacher was trying to encourage the new student to come in.
A young dark blue haired boy with a mole near his lower left lip walked in. Despite the burn scar on his left face, his face was prettier than a girl's. What attracted their attention were his beautiful heterochromatic eyes; both blue, but his left eye had a lighter shade.
"Hakuryuu Ren. Pleased to make your acquaintance."
The students are all stunned to see that their new classmate was such a beauty.
"Judal-chan, guess what!"
A pink haired girl appeared out of no where in front of a long black haired boy named Judal who was trying to sleep on top of the roof.
"What do you want, Old Hag!" Judal answered crabbily not happy to be disturbed not even by his own friend, Kougyoku Ren.
"Hmpf, then I won't tell you about my little brother."
"You mean Hakuryuu! I was just kidding, you Old Hag," At the mention of Hakuryuu, Judal perked up fully awake.
"Yes, it appears he just transferred here from his oversea studies." Kougyoku informed Judal as she ignored Judal's 'Old Hag' comment.
"Looks like he finally decided to conquer a dungeon with me." Judal said haughtily.
"Unfortunately for you, little Hakuryuu already conquered one during his studies in Sindria."
"HE DID WHAT!?" From the roof top, everybody in the school had heard the sudden outburst outside.
Inside class 1 – A, the whole class was in an uproar wondering what had just happened.
"What was that?"
"It sounded like Judal-sama's voice."
"What an amazing voice he has…."
Unlike his classmates, Hakuyuu paid no attention to the noise and concentrated on his studies.
Once break started, Hakuryuu was surrounded by his classmates who were bombarding him with a ton of questions.
"Are you by any chance related to the 'Kou' family?"
"Why did you transfer here?"
"What are your likes and dislikes?"
"Do you have a girlfriend?"
"What's your type?"
Despite being uncomfortable from being surrounding by so many people, Hakuryuu tried his best to answer all of the questions directed at him even if some of them were a bit odd.
"I apologize, but I have no relation to the 'Kou' family you are referring to."
"My parents recommended this school based on its academic success in providing students with a bright future; and my older sister attends here as well."
"I like to cook and spar. I'm not sure about my dislikes….. I was never very good at telling jokes."
"I-I don't have a girlfriend." Hakuryuu tries not to show his embarrassment on his face but fails as he blushes.
"Kawaii~" The students especially the boys around Hakuryuu all thought at the same time.
"I prefer a strong woman like my sister." Upon hearing Hakuryuu's answer, they all make sure to make note of it.
"Ne, Hakuryuu-kun. Even if you're not related to the Kou family, have you conquered a dungeon?" One guy asked out of curiosity.
!
*twitch*
Hakuryuu twitches when one of his classmates asked if he conquered a dungeon.
"No way! You know how hard it is to conquer a dungeon. Even the best of the best don't make it out alive. Only a select handful like the Kou family can actually conquer one." Another guy tells his friend.
"Yeah, you're right. You can just forget what I just said."
Hakuryuu felt relieved that he wasn't going to be pressed any further on whether he had a djinn or not.
"Hey Hakuryuu. You probably don't know this, but our school has 5 dungeon conquers. And they're all- "
*ring*
"Class is in session."
At the sound of the bell, the teacher entered the classroom. He started taking roll until he reached Hakuryuu's name.
"Ren, Hakuryuu."
"Present." Hakuryuu replied.
"So you're the new student, young Prince."
!
*twitch*
Hakuryuu twitched at the name he was addressed as.
"Do not forget to meet with your brother, Lord Kouen, after school. He wishes to speak to you."
Once lunch time started, Hakuryuu was about to leave class with his bento box wrapped in a teal green furoshiki but was stopped by his classmates.
"So you really are related to the Kou family!"
"Why did you deny it before?"
"Does that mean you also have a djinn too!"
"What's your djinn like!"
Hakuryuu was about to deny having a djinn, but before he could speak a word, Judal appeared from the window Hakuryuu was next to.
"Hey, Hakuryuu! I heard you went ahead and conquered a dungeon without me!" Clearly not pleased to be left out on Hakuryuu's dungeon conquest.
'There goes my peaceful high school life….' Hakuryuu mentally sighed.
