YM778.TV Chapter 109: The Last Member
They even thought that they wouldn\'t be able to go inside the advanced adventurer zone this semester due to how difficult Archpriest Deo was being in the talks.
It seems that he grew too fond of his student to the point that he wasn\'t willing to his student go inside the advanced adventurer zone.
It took the deans months before they were able to convince the archpriest to let his beloved student experience the world.
Fortunately, three weeks before the semester ended, Archpriest Deo gave in after realizing that he shouldn\'t spoon-feed his student too much or his student might perish early after graduating from the monastery.
Thus, the Colzen Avengers squad was set to be completed today.
Shye and the other Avengers were curiously waiting inside the faculty meeting hall. They couldn\'t help but think about their last member.
Is the last member a boy or a girl?
Is he/she kind? Foulmouthed? No one knew.
Shye however, had an idea. If his suspicions were correct, then he already met this last member.
Fortunately, Archpriest Deo didn\'t keep them waiting for long as he entered the faculty hall with a beautiful young woman wearing pristine white priestess attire embroidered with an insignia of the Colzen Monastery.
Kiin Wujin, Harry Copperfield, David Houdini, Ian Izanagi, and even the usually battle-minded Siegfried couldn\'t help but be mesmerized by the young woman\'s beauty which was akin to an ice fairy.
David, who was especially fond of women, almost couldn\'t stop himself from saying a few words of appreciation to the girl.
However, a shocking thing happened. While Shye\'s avenger mates were in the middle of admiring the young priestess\' beauty, the young girl suddenly sprinted excitedly towards Shye and held his hands.
"Ohh! Crowley! I was worried that I might not get along with the students of Colzen Academy…It\'s good that you\'re here!" Wendy sincerely said with a smile on her face.
She was actually quite worried earlier because she wasn\'t good at making friends so upon realization that Shye was one of her teammates, she felt like all of her sociability problems were wiped away.
As long as Shye could properly introduce her to the other teammates, then there should be no problem getting along with them.
Unfortunately, this subtly intimate action of hers utterly shocked Kiin and the others.
Although Siegfried didn\'t mind too much, the other four surrounded him and cracked their fists as they demanded an explanation from Shye.
"Y-Y-Yo…Crowley!! What\'s the meaning of this? Huh?!"
"A proper explanation will solve things here…come on, why don\'t you patiently tell us huh?!"
"Didn\'t you have Shirley already?! What is the meaning of this? Crowley?!"
Shye couldn\'t help but take a few steps back as his face twitched after seeing the intense reactions of his teammates.
\'Damn! Somebody give these guys a girlfriend!\' Shye thought to himself as he struggled to find words.
Unfortunately for him, Wendy decided to make things worse.
"Can you guys step back for a bit? Can\'t you see that Crowley is becoming uncomfortable?"
Wendy innocently said to Kiin and the others although her facial expression didn\'t change much.
Naturally, the mesmerized teammates couldn\'t do anything but back down in the face of such beauty.
They all gave Shye a death glare which basically meant "This is not over yet, you have lots of explaining to do" before temporarily letting him off.
Meanwhile, the deans were surprised that Shye and Wendy had already met.
Archpriest Deo deliberately didn\'t tell the deans that the two already knew each other in hopes of delaying Wendy\'s involvement but in the end, he chose to give up for Wendy\'s sake.
"Oh? These two already met each other?" Dean Snowcrest asked just a second earlier than the other deans.
"Ahh…yes, I apologize for my poor memory. Crowley met and saved Wendy inside the intermediate adventurer zone."
"This student of mine was a bit too willful and escaped from the monastery. She then somehow managed to sneak past the guards, fortunately, she bumped into Crowley and was able to get out safely."
Kiin\'s, the other students, and the deans\' faces morphed into a look of understanding after hearing Archpriest Deo\'s explanation.
The students, especially David, heaved a sigh of relief upon realizing that this girl still wasn\'t in love with Shye.
It seems that they truly liked her appearance.
As for Shye, he was just happy that his interactions with Wendy weren\'t misunderstood by others anymore.
"Wendy, why don\'t you introduce yourself to the others?" Archpriest Deo said as he looked at Wendy.
"Okay" Wendy replied before looking towards Kiin and the others.
"Hello, I\'m Wendy Primrose, a third-year priestess from Colzen Monastery, nice to meet you."
A very common and basic introduction, nonetheless, it made David\'s heart skip a beat.
David boldly walked forward and gently shook Wendy\'s hands before introducing himself.
"Ahh, Wendy Primrose, a truly fitting name for someone as beautiful as you. I\'m David Houdini, the first-ranked mage course student from Colzen Academy. If I may be so bold, are you free after this? I have lots of money and I can take you everywhere you want!"
As for Shye, he couldn\'t help but cringe at David\'s words.
\'Ughh…No wonder this guy is single…\' Shye thought to himself.
Even Kiin and the others inwardly laughed at David\'s stupid introduction, in their minds, they already had one less competitor in the battle for Wendy, the ice fairy\'s heart.
However, the next moment, their eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets after hearing Wendy\'s reply.
"Really? Well then, I\'d like to eat at a fancy restaurant, can you take me there after the expedition?"
As innocent as ever, Wendy\'s ice-cold facial expression remained the same, however, the tone of her voice gave away her excitement as she agreed to David\'s invitation.
Naturally, she didn\'t know that David was trying to capture her heart. All she cared about was being able to eat for free in a fancy restaurant.
"MHM! Everyone, please focus on the task at hand. The seven of you will enter the advanced adventurer zone today so please refrain from doing irrelevant things as much as possible."
"Also, if you want to court Wendy, please know that priestesses couldn\'t engage in such activities until they turn 21 years old so I suggest that you guys wait for 2 more years before trying to capture her heart.
Naturally, Archpriest Deo, wouldn\'t let them lay their filthy paws on his precious student so easily so he loudly cleared his throat to get everyone\'s attention before pouring an ice-cold bucket of water on Kiin and the others\' heads through his ruthless reminder.
