Chapter 1 - Silver Knight

Part 1

Have you heard of it before?

Recently, a hero succeeded in preventing the monster called Necromancia from destroying the city of Ansarivan. According to witnesses, the hero seems dressed in silver-colored Ark.

If not for the hero, the city probably already had been in ruins. The worst possible situation is maybe the whole district…err no, it will not be surprising if the whole Ansarivan city is razed to the ground.

However, so far no one there knew the hero’s true identity.

As he was dressed in an Ark, he must be an Ark-Dragner.

His purpose is not to show off his skills and he does not ask anything for a reward.

Ahh!!! He is such a honorable and noble person! The Knight of all Knights can’t be anyone apart from him!

So let's call him <Silver Knight>.

From here on, we gradually announce the establishment of the SKFC (Sliver Knight Fan Club)!

Anyone interested in becoming a member is always welcome!

SKFC kaichou Jessica Valentine (Advanced Course first year).

"... So this is your first piece of errand?"

Ash felt Eco looking at him from his back so he turned around and nodded in response.

"Yeah, since I’m in charge of General Affairs.

There is a big bulletin board facing the staff room at the corridor of the ground floor of the campus. The surfaces of the board are fully disorganized and there are some unauthorized posters. Ash feels dizzy looking at it.

Just right after the official ceremony had ended, Ash immediately received an order from Rebecca.

During the school’s free time, the girls’ dormitory seems to have established an organization named SKFC. There was a rumor that the posters used for recruiting members are plastered everywhere on campus.

Any absurd acts like this which are not recognized by the Student Council cannot be left alone.

To remove all the unauthorized posters-must be Ash's first errand as the Student Council’s General Affairs chief.

The afternoon courses were going to start in thirty minutes. To make time for the precious lunch break, Ash angrily tears off the posters.

"You're hopeless! Who does the Student Council think they are! First of all, I’m your rightful owner, right? So who allowed you to take orders from outsiders other than me?!"

"I think you had switched our stands. I'm your owner... Anyway, why are you here?!"

Only by now, the dense Ash in amazement.

There will be classes that must be attended after the ceremony, so they separated in the boys' dormitory. Eco just talked with her usual tone, so Ash, without any hesitation, started to chat with her.

"Where is Cosette? Didn't I remind you that during my lesson time, you have to look for her?"

"You-u ...... you still haven't figured it out yet? You really are dense to the extreme!"

Eco puffed her cheeks and turned around in front of Ash.

Her skirt flipped up in midair, revealing a pinkish white thigh.

Looking at Eco’s delicate and charming appearance, Ash’s heart cannot help but skip a beat. Then, he finally noticed the difference.

Eco is not wearing her usual casual wear, but a school uniform.

"Just a moment! Why are you wearing our school uniform?"

"Cosette knew I want to look around the school, so she lended it to me."

"Oh, what a nice person Cosette is…WAIT! This school is for dragon breeders! Why you, a dragon is here?!"

"I'm just very interested and want to know what are the things that you are doing in this school. Cosette told me that I won’t need to worry about being found out while wearing this dress."

Cosette's devilish smile vividly emerged in Ash’s mind.

“Then, when is the lesson is going to began?”

"You also intend to attend class!?"

"Hmph, I just want to attend class! And you are not allowed to give opinions!"

"Thunk!" She stomped with a menacing manner and she straightened her chest.

"...... alas."

It seems that Eco had already made up her mind and nothing made her think twice.

Ash can only miserably continue to tear up those “eyesore” posters.

Part 2

When the bell rings, Ash and Eco is still in the corridor at the ground floor.

“Gosh! Now we need to rush to class!”

Ash runs while dragging Eco behind him.

"You should not be hasty in front of a noble Dragon!"

This afternoon there is a scheduled lesson on Oracle. This course is a compulsory subject specified by the Ansarivan Dragon Riding Academy.

Dragon regularly secrete a type of crystal with magic, called Bright Dragon Crystal

Through Bright Dragon Crystal the oracle can be activated. Today it is widely used by humans who do not have magic as light source and the heat source in daily life.

"Anyway... I have not seen you secrete Bright Dragon Crystal."

There are many breeders who bring have their pal’s Bright Dragon Crystal with them.

That is not only a proof of their good relationship with their pal, but also acts as a talisman. When they ran into a dangerous situation, it can be use as a medium to activate their oracle.

Unexpectedly, Ash inadvertently made Eco blush.

"Sha!... Better be careful or I will crush you! How can I casually expose those shameful things in front of others!

Ash cannot help but surprised for a moment.

"Shameful? How shameful can it be?"

"Th-Those down right low things...How can I even be speaking of it!"

"Low? Bright Dragon Crystal is formed when excess magic crystallize(?) Even when seen, I think it is no big deal….!!! "

"You haven’t seen other dragons secrete their Bright Dragon Crystal before right?"

"Who says so!? I have seen!"

Ash calmly replied.

"What!"

Eco looks like she felt heavy blow, just like a thunderstruck.

"How could there be such a shameless Dragon!"

"Anyhow, this is riding a Dragon Riding Academy. Those incidents are quite common."

Eco disbelively, stood still.

"What you said... is it really the truth?"

"Mmm, it is the truth. For some dragons, as long as you ask them, they would generously secrete it for you Or else after the practical skill lessons, you can see that it is all over the field."

"Su-Such a thing could even be happening! The blame should be put on the stupid and ignorant human who tame the dragons. Now the moral standards of a dragon have drop until this low. This situation is really serious... we dragons have undergo degradation. "You too had overestimated this problem! Is it really that serious?”

“The secretion of it from a human request, or secrete it anywhere... It's pretty outrageous! Although I do not deny that I inevitably will run into the kind of really intolerable situation At last carelessly become incontinence..."

“Incontinence? Why do you use this word to describe? In the end Bright Dragon Crystal is actually... "

Ash felt a chill in his heart.

Because of Eco accidentally slip it out from her mouth. He would been happier if he had not heard the facts that he didn't need to. Can I calmly face Bright Dragon Crystal in the future......?

Ash stares blankly at Eco.

Perhaps she had a misunderstanding, Eco angrily shouted:

"I, I will not incontinence!"
