Chapter 11: Giant Food Monster (2/2)

The freshmen spent the entire morning split between their sizzling fear of inviting trouble for themselves, and passing the time guessing at what miserable experience was waiting for the three of Ayrin, Belo, and Moss. The vast majority of freshmen found that their guesses came true when Huston put a full dining car’s worth of chicken legs in front of Ayring, Belo, and Moss.

“He must have bought every chicken leg from every canteen inside the academy right?”

Moss’ eyes went red when he saw at least two to three hundred chicken legs inside the dining car. He couldn’t hold back his shout once again, “Teacher Huston, I really don’t have anything to do with them…”

With his hands clasped behind his back, Huston said without even looking at him, “What? I didn’t hear clearly, are you thinking there’s not enough to eat here?”

Moss even started to imagine fighting to the death with Huston. At such a moment, a cold voice actually came out from the group of freshmen. “Teacher Huston, don’t you think you’re being a little excessive?”

“Oh?”

The corner of Huston’s eyes twitched. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the voice.

“Rinloran?”

“It’s him? He actually dares to talk straight to teacher Huston’s face?”

Many freshmen turned their gazes around. Rinloran stood by himself at the edge of the crowd, looking straight at Huston without the slightest dread.

Rinloran’s cold gaze made Huston’s eyelids twitch a few times. A treacherous smile curled at the corner of his lips. “Rinloran, you want to eat together with them?”

“Why would I do such a senseless thing?” Rinloran said like freezing ice.

“Why?”

A chilly light flashed inside Huston’s eyes. In a flash, his body vanished from where he stood.

“Puff!”

Raging winds burst out in front of Rinloran.

Huston’s figure emerged from inside the gale, taking his hand back, a sneer on his face.

Rinloran’s figure retreated inside the gale, retreating a full five to six steps before finally stilling.

Every freshman could see with halted breath. Rinloran’s arms were still crossed in front of him, maintaining his protective posture. His arms were shaking nonstop however, and his face had also become a little pale.

“Not that I was serious at all, but you’ve already done pretty well blocking a strike from me.”

Huston glanced at Rinloran and his shaking arms, then looked at the freshmen around Rinloran who hadn’t even clearly seen his movements. “As to why… I think you already understand now. Because you’re too weak for me, because I’m your teacher, because you can’t possibly resist even if I were to force you to do these things.”

Rinloran didn’t make a sound. He took his hands back, but most freshmen became even tenser instead, because they could all feel Rinloran had no intention of lowering his head still.

“It’s alright.”

Ayrin nodded gratefully at Rinloran at this time and said, “My appetite is very big, there should be no problem eating these even by myself.”

“Is that so? Since you say so, then don’t be wasteful, first finish eating the things you brought, then also eat these chicken legs after that.” Huston laughed out loud. “Haha, if you can finish eating all these chicken legs, then the rest naturally don’t need to eat them anymore. And as a special favor, I can allow you to carry a lot of food to class in the future.”

A collective intake of breath rose in the forest.

Because Ayrin really started to eat without saying another word.

The things he’d taken seemed fully sufficient for several persons, but he cleanly wolfed them down in only a moment, then he started to eat the chicken legs one by one.

“What’s this about?”

Huston hadn’t heard about Ayrin’s glorious eating achievements before. He became more and more dumbfounded.

“Does this guy carries the blood of the giants? But he couldn’t eat like that even he had a complete giant bloodline. Also, he couldn’t be this thin and small either!”

Ayrin had eaten over a hundred chicken legs nonstop, and still wasn’t showing the slightest sign of slowing down, despite his belly swelling high. Huston’s eyes stared so hard even his eyeballs were about to fall out.

This was something that completely exceeded the scope of his knowledge, something that was totally unreasonable when he thought of it.

Moss and the other freshmen had all more or less heard about Ayrin’s glorious battle achievements on the commercial street, but witnessing the way Ayrin was eating now with their own eyes, they were still all shocked, all sucking in cold mouthfuls of air.

“What’s this guy’s stomach actually made of?”

“Don’t tell me he’s really going to eat all of this stuff?”

Moss looked blankly at Ayrin, these thoughts popping through his brain, but then he saw Ayrin’s actions becoming slower and slower.

“Is he going to explode and die if this goes on?”

He watched Ayrin, his mood more and more conflicted, but amidst increasing louder sounds of cold air being sucked in, Ayrin actually finished eating all the chicken legs.

Seeing Ayrin down the last chicken leg, seeing his belly bulge to a degree difficult to image, remembering this little shorty only did this so that Rinloran and himself could avoid the punishment, Moss couldn’t hold it back anymore, once again. He rushed beside Ayrin: “How are you feeling, are you feeling any discomfort?”

Ayrin watched the empty dining car with disappointment and frustration, as if he missed it, “Oh, there’s nothing left already… Tastes really good, I almost couldn’t bear to eat them in the end… A little more would have been even better.”

“What?!”

Moss almost went crazy on the spot as soon as he heard Ayrin. He shouted out loud, “Someone else would have exploded and died long ago if they ate that much, but the only reason you slowed down was because you couldn’t bear to eat it?!”

Huston was already speechless, but he finally became mad with anger when he heard Ayrin’s words. He shouted, hysterical:

“Are you trying to oppose me on purpose? You can eat even that much? Don’t tell me you’re a Giant Food Monster?”
