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[1].
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[2] 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[3]! 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[4]!" 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.
