467 Monicas summons (1/2)
With just the tip of the makeshift scale that I came up with now poking out from the inner wall of my room, the disciples gathered in my room instantly became startled, moving their eyes on top of this strange element that suddenly entered the room.
”What, you never saw pierogi-dragon scale?”
Using the opportunity when their eyes were averted, I instantly used all the speed I had to sneak inside and take up the same position that the illusion had, before pretending to open my eyes and uttering some bullshit name for the monster created right in my head.
While the origin of its name could be disputed, the fact that I suddenly felt hungry from all the thinking and had a moment of craving for this foreign, eastern European dish might have something to do with it.
”What the heck do you mean by that? No matter how powerful the beast… Wait, you are awake?”
With the female that dared to smack my fake face many times over clearly acting as a leader of this place with how she was the first one to respond to my words, I couldn't help but want to tease her up a bit.
”Yeah, I was peacefully cultivating my energy when someone started smacking me away. While I tried to calmly end my session, someone was rude enough to keep striking me, rendering all my efforts to gather my energy back to its proper shape, useless. Only when this scale struck the wall I managed to have a breather and properly finish my cultivation.��
Suddenly straightening myself up on the bed from my cross-legged position in which I pretended to cultivate, I jumped lightly into the air, before twisting my body to a slightly different angle and using this change to land squarely on the floor. After swiping non-existent dust from my simple clothes, I looked back at the astonished disciples with a question mark written on my face.
”What? Can a man stretch a bit nowadays without attracting those longing looks? I'm sorry, you are not my type, baby.”
While her face was twisted in more of a puzzled look rather than astonishment, with my words clearly poking fun at her, this silly girl clearly grit her teeth before calming herself down and assuming haughty look on her face.
”The teacher is summoning you. You should head to the open chambers at once!”
With those words coming out of her prideful face, I couldn't help myself from continuing this small fun.
”I'm sorry, I was asked to limit my strength during the exam and ended up in this place rather than the dark blue division, so I don't really know my way around here. Seeing how you all came here to fetch me like a bunch of servants, I think I'm safe to assume you are free to guide me around? Thanks!”
