I Have a Dragon in My Body - Chapter 18

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the morning, Mark woke up as usual and went to the backyard for his daily training.

After returning to his room, he checked the message on the magic communication device and found that his homeroom teacher had specially sent him a class schedule and message.

“There’s an organized event in the academy today. Come to the class to hear the details before 9 am.”

Checking the time, he found that it was only 7:30 am. Mark went to the shower and washed up before changing.

In the academy, nothing dangerous would happen, so there was no need to bring too many weapons.

However, everyone had to carry their main weapons with them, because they had magic and martial arts classes.

When he was ready, Mark came to the door and hung the ordinary weapon he had spent a few gold coins on at his waist.

He walked towards the streets of the dormitory, preparing to go out for breakfast and go to class.

After leaving the southern gate of the school building, he arrived at the most prosperous street in the capital. In the morning, there were people everywhere who were busy transporting goods.

Mark walked to a shop on the side and ordered a sumptuous breakfast.

Soon, a tall figure appeared before him.

“Nelson Ashborne, what a coincidence. Are you here for breakfast?” This tall and strong man gave Mark a good impression, so he took the initiative to greet him.

Hearing a familiar voice, Nelson Ashborne walked towards the seat beside him.

“What a coincidence. I didn’t expect to see you here!”

With that, he took out a square mobile magic communication device from his pocket.

“There were still some things that I wanted to talk to you about a few days ago, but I don’t have any way to communicate with you. I made the decision and got this for you!”

With that, he sat opposite Mark and ordered breakfast.

“I’m sorry. I went far away to complete a mission a few days ago and only returned to the school yesterday!”

Taking the magic communication device, Mark realized that Nelson had already saved his own number in it.

“From today onwards, I will try my best not to leave and stay in the academy to study hard!”

Hearing this, Nelson Ashborne reached out his large hand and touched the back of his head.

He showed a difficult expression!

Seeing this scene, Mark continued, “Is there a mission? I can still do it in my free time and earn some living expenses.”

Nelson Ashborne immediately told Mark about the mission from the Garrison Guards.

Recently, many villages around the Empire had been attacked by magical beasts.

However, the adventurers were all busy hunting in the spring. No one was willing to care about this.

Therefore, they could only post these missions in the academy to see if there were any students who were willing to earn money to help.

After receiving the mission list, Mark read it seriously and realized that the missions that Nelson Ashborne accepted were all missions above Grade A.

After completing these missions, he could obtain a high amount of gold coins and points.

“More than ten?”

“It’s not a problem. These missions are basically all connected. With a little effort, it will only take ten days!”

As Nelson Ashborne had helped him on many occasions, Mark could not ignore it.

Furthermore, these missions concerned the lives of many villagers around.

“It’s a little long. If anyone else does these missions during this period of time, just inform me!”

Seeing that Mark had accepted the mission so easily, Nelson Ashborne smiled.

Then, he sent Mark a number with his magic communication device.

“This is the person-in-charge of the Garrison Guards. I’ve already called him!”

“Just contact him before and after the mission!”

After talking about this matter, Mark could not help but ask Nelson Ashborne about the recent situation of the Empire.

This was because he had discovered many problems around the Empire through the Adventurer Guild’s missions recently.

Hearing this question, Nelson whispered in Mark’s ear, “The main reason is still the Demon Race!”

“Recently, many demons have been discovered in the Empire!”

“If possible, please investigate the root cause of these missions. If you have any clues, please let me know in advance!”

“No problem!” After hearing Nelson’s words, Mark instantly felt that he should tell his father about this.

After breakfast, Mark and Nelson returned to the academy.

In the entire class, apart from Senforia, the other students had already arrived.

After sitting down, Mark only felt a few gazes on him. Soon, they looked away unconcernedly.

But Mark could sense the excitement in their eyes.

‘Is someone going to find me for trouble?’

At this moment, the door was opened and the homeroom teacher, Arnold Rex, walked in, holding a pile of documents.

After standing on the podium, he distributed the information in his hand.

While the students were really checking the information in their hands, Arnold stood on the podium and said, “The Empire Academy is the most tolerant school in the entire continent of Connors!”

“Most of the time, students do not need to come to class.”

“However, once in a while, every student will take periodic exams!”

“Therefore, please study all the books and information I have prepared at home!”

As he spoke, he looked at the few people sitting in the middle two rows.

Sensing Arnold’s gaze, the students lowered their heads in embarrassment.

“At this stage, all of you are still freshmen of the first grade. No matter what you are usually busy with, please study hard!”

“As an elite of Class S, there will be a strength and theory test every semester!”

“If you can’t pass the test, I have the right to kick you out of my class!”

With that, he wrote everyone’s report cards on the blackboard.

Glancing up, Mark realized that his name was beside Senforia, they were tied for second and third. The first place was Nelson.

Pointing at some names on the blackboard, Arnold continued, “Today is Monday. Students below the passing grade, please complete your supplementary exam this week!”

“Class S’s results are not based on the final score at the end of the year!”

“The result of every test is usually very important. Please remember what I said!”

“At that time, if you’re kicked out of Class S, even if your father is a Duke, I won’t compromise!”

With that, the students began to discuss, and Mark was already reading the information in his hand.

This was a set of theoretical knowledge regarding the operation of magic. It was not useful to ordinary people.

But in Mark’s eyes, this was a good thing to increase his strength!
