Chapter 39: Welcoming Ceremony
“I say, don’t do anything rash. I really don’t intend to stay here. Please let me go.”
Shu Ke had never felt so aggrieved. Even when facing the elders of the Vincent family, he had never said anything soft. But now, he was trying to compromise.
But he had no choice!
Even if he faced those elders, he would only die.
But this person in front of him was a pervert!
Who knew how would they treat him? If they did something to him, then he would really suffer eight lifetimes of bad luck.
If he lost his integrity, then he would really die with grief.
“Hey, all of you come out, I brought the new junior here…”
Asher had just let go of his hand and was standing in the hall, almost naked. He waved his hand, signalling for the people inside to come out and welcome Shu Ke.
However, before he could finish his words—a chopping board flew in the air and directly hit Asher’s face—sending him flying.
“Chh—cho—chopping board?”
Shu Ke looked at Asher’s face with a dumbfounded look, then he fell heavily and smashed the undefeated Asher into a messy chopping board. He immediately fell into deep thought.
His fist was actually worse than a chopping board?
Shu Ke could not understand this!
“Asher, how many times have I told you not to run out naked? No girl will like you like this!”
A blurry shadow slowly walked out from the shadow of the corridor. It was obvious that the chopping board was thrown by this person.
Shu Ke’s heart calmed down a little, and he looked at the corridor with anticipation.
This should be a normal—person?
That’s right!
This guy who walked out from the corridor shouldn’t be a person.
This was a crocodile—with a crocodile head, wearing a chef’s uniform, chef’s hat, and holding a large chopping knife!
“Is this a f*cking orc?”
“But why is this a little different from the orc I imagined?”
“Where’s the cat-eared lady? Where’s the rabbit-eared lady? Where’s the Wolf Girl?!”
“You’re not going to tell me that all orcs are ferocious beasts that stand on their feet, right??”
Shu Ke’s beautiful fantasy of the Otherworld seemed to shatter a little. No!! It was a lot!
“Hello, new junior. I’m Igor Croc, from the Croc-man race. I’m a third-year warrior major student in the Royal Academy’s Dou Qi Department. I’m also a student of instructor Ron.”
Although the crocodile looked terrifying, its words, actions, and behavior were much better than Asher—that pervert with the sunny and handsome face.
Although Shu Ke was not used to a standing crocodile, it was still within an acceptable range. Therefore, Shu Ke nodded and returned the salute to Igor.
“I’m instructor Ron’s new student. My name is Shu Ke. I will definitely not live in the banana building, this strange place!”
Although the appearance of Igor made Shu Ke feel a little more at ease, but Shu Ke still righteously stated his meaning. He would never join the banana building—this strange place!
To be able to have a pervert like Asher and Igor, it was enough to show how terrifying this place was.
“I can understand, I can understand.”
Igor did not force Shu Ke. Instead, he nodded with approval and said to Shu Ke, “Don’t worry too much. We won’t force you. It’s up to you if you can’t stay here.”
“Yeah, I just brought you in to have a look. I never said you could stay here!”
Suddenly, Asher stood up as if he was a corpse. Shu Ke was shocked.
“Aren’t you—dead?”
Shu Ke looked at Asher with a strange expression, then looked at Igor. These two people gave him a strange feeling, as if they were not normal people.
Although Igor was polite, he seemed to be a very easy person to talk to.
But Shu Ke saw it!
This guy’s chef uniform was covered in blood—just like those chef monsters in horror games—not to mention how scary it was.
So Shu Ke had been carefully keeping a distance from Igor, because he was afraid that Igor would suddenly attack him.
As the old saying goes, guard against all harm from others.
This place was full of strangers, and there was a bounty on him from the Vincent family.
Who knew if these people would suddenly go berserk and kill him to get the bounty?
Therefore, Shu Ke was very careful, afraid that something might happen.
“Look at the both of you. You’re not gorgeous, not elegant. You’re two perverts!”
Yes! What he said was absolutely right!
The voice that suddenly came to his mind immediately warmed Shu Ke’s heart. This was simply speaking into his own heart. These two people were completely perverts!
Therefore, Shu Ke hurriedly looked for the sound. But when he saw it, his heart immediately turned cold.
“Tack! Tack!”
The crisp sound of high heels landing on the ground entered Shu Ke’s ears. A young man—with long silver hair, dressed in a gorgeous silver-white evening gown—had a similarly silver-white western sword hanging from his waist.
At first glance, it looked as if it had not been colored. It slowly entered Shu Ke’s field of vision.
This f*ck doesn’t seem like a decent person, right?
Shu Ke never expected this guy to stand out and accuse the two of them of being perverts. He himself also seemed a little abnormal.
“Elegant, gorgeous, these are the temperaments that we as nobles should have the most. Look at the two of you, you’re simply two rough men!”
“Didn’t you see that you’ve scared the new junior?”
The newcomer reprimanded the two with a dissatisfied look, but Shu Ke, who was at the side, didn’t look happy at all.
“That… you don’t seem to be normal, right?”
“Who would wear evening gowns on a daily basis? And make themselves look like they were unpainted?”
“Most importantly, could you stop blurting about elegant and gorgeous?”
“Don’t you feel very awkward?”
Shu Ke kept complaining in his heart, and at the same time, he approached the door—step by step.
No matter what, as long as he escaped this place first, then it would be his victory! From now on, even if he was beaten to death, he would absolutely not go near this damned place!
But just as Shu Ke’s hand was about to touch the door handle, he suddenly felt a silver light flash before his eyes. And then a silver sword almost stabbed into his face. The silver-haired man—who had not been colored—appeared in front of him. “Don’t be in a hurry to leave. We haven’t formally welcomed the new junior into the house yet.”
