The atmosphere inside the principal's office had turned serious.
Principal Jiroto leaned forward slightly and looked at Vice Principal Amelia.
"So… what kind of idea do you have?"
Teacher Liana immediately crossed her arms and looked at Amelia suspiciously.
"Whatever it is, don't say another ridiculous idea like last time."
Amelia raised her hands slightly.
"No, no. Listen first."
She walked closer to the desk.
"After lunch break, the next class for second years is mine."
Liana frowned.
"So?"
Amelia continued calmly.
"In that class I will ask every student to show the deal of their own bloodline."
The room fell silent.
"And when that boy… Jeigan… uses his bloodline deal, his surname will appear with the deal. That way we can finally know what he truly is."
Principal Jiroto's face turned serious.
"The plan sounds good… but it is extremely risky."
He slowly stood up and walked toward the window.
"You both know what happens when someone uses their bloodline deal power."
"That power is inherited from their ancestors. It is ancient and extremely powerful."
He continued in a heavy voice.
"Sometimes the pressure created by a bloodline deal is so powerful that it can cause destruction similar to a nuclear power plant failure."
Liana nodded slowly.
"That's true…"
Jiroto continued.
"That is why students must first learn to control their personal deal powers before using their bloodline abilities."
"If even one of those students loses control… the destruction could be enormous."
He turned back toward them.
"And the biggest problem is… we still don't understand Jeigan's power level."
"So this idea is both good… and extremely dangerous."
"But not right now."
Liana nodded.
"I agree with you, sir."
"And honestly… doing something like that right now would also be illegal."
Amelia sighed.
"Then what else can we do?"
"I just suggested the best idea I could think of."
She grabbed her notebook.
"Well… you two decide what to do."
"I have another class to prepare notes for."
"See you later."
Amelia left the office.
The room became quiet again.
Liana looked at Jiroto.
"So sir… what should we do now?"
Jiroto spoke slowly.
"There is only one option left."
"We must discuss this matter with Professor Eldos."
"Maybe he can find a solution."
Liana nodded but then said carefully,
"But sir… we must make sure that Professor Niyan does not learn anything about that boy."
Jiroto immediately agreed.
"Yes. Absolutely."
Outside the door…
Professor Niyan stood silently.
She had heard everything.
A slow smile appeared on her lips as she gently ran her tongue across them.
"Mmm… interesting."
"A new prey."
She turned and quietly walked away.
Moments later the office door opened and Teacher Liana stepped out.
Meanwhile inside the office…
Principal Jiroto activated a spell.
"Deal of Telepathy."
"Deal Accepted."
"Hello, Professor Eldos. This is Jiroto speaking."
Far away inside a laboratory…
Professor Eldos was writing something inside a thick book.
Suddenly the telepathic signal reached him.
"Deal of Telepathy."
"Deal Accepted."
"Jiroto?"
"That's unusual."
"We haven't spoken through telepathy in a long time."
"What's the matter?"
Jiroto's voice echoed inside his mind.
"Professor… something strange has happened in our university."
Meanwhile…
On the university rooftop.
Jinha and Jeigan were standing near the railing.
"Jeigan, look over there."
Several students were floating in the air using their deal powers.
Jeigan's eyes widened with excitement.
"Wow!"
"I want that power too!"
"I want to fly!"
"Jinha, how do people get flying deal powers?"
Jinha smiled slightly.
"There are many kinds of flying deals."
"Most of them come from birds."
"And sometimes from dragons."
"But dragon deals are extremely rare… and very dangerous."
She explained patiently.
"If you manage to satisfy a bird or a dragon and bring it under your control, it may grant you one wish related to its deal power."
"And if you wish for the ability to fly… you gain its flying power."
Jeigan looked amazed.
"That sounds incredible."
"So what birds are those students using?"
Jinha looked at them.
"Most of them are using pigeon deals."
"Pigeons are the easiest birds to control."
Suddenly—
Two figures ran across the rooftop.
Takemishi and Hanaume jumped from the rooftop beside them.
"Deal of Hawk!"
"Deal Accepted!"
Massive hawk wings appeared and both of them soared into the sky.
Jeigan jumped in shock.
"Huh?!"
"What was that?!"
"Their wings are much bigger than the others!"
Jinha shouted angrily,
"Hey! Don't fly too much or I'll do the same thing to you that I did yesterday!"
But they ignored her.
"Hahahahaha!"
Their wings created powerful wind currents that scared other students.
Jeigan whispered,
"Jinha… was that really a hawk deal?"
"Does that mean they actually controlled a hawk?"
Jinha clenched her fists.
"No."
"They didn't control them properly."
"They trap the creatures and torture them until they give in."
Jeigan looked disturbed.
"That's wrong…"
"That's basically harassment."
Jinha nodded angrily.
"Yes."
"And they can get away with it because of Julian."
"Whenever they get into trouble, Julian just pays money to cover it up."
Jeigan quickly tried to calm her.
"Hey, hey… calm down."
But suddenly—
Julian appeared.
Before Jeigan could react, Julian grabbed him.
Then he jumped from the rooftop.
"JEIGAN!!!"
Jinha screamed.
Julian laughed.
"Deal of Eagle!"
"Deal Accepted!"
Massive eagle wings appeared.
"Hahahahahaha!"
Hanaume and Takemishi laughed too.
"Let's give this little dog a tour of the sky!"
Jinha shouted furiously,
"Let him go!"
But Julian ignored her.
"Not happening."
Jeigan cried out,
"Please let me go!"
Julian smirked.
"Okay."
He released him.
Jeigan began falling from the sky.
"AAAAAAAHHHHH!!!"
"HELP!!!"
Jinha's eyes burned with fury.
"NO! JEIGAN!"
Just before Jeigan hit the ground—
Julian grabbed him again and flew even higher.
Their laughter echoed across the sky.
On the rooftop…
Jinha's aura exploded.
"Deal of Arch Dragon Wing of Calamity."
"DEAL ACCEPTED!!!"
A massive pair of white and dark-purple dragon wings burst out from her back.
The entire university shook from the wind pressure.
Students stared in shock.
In a single second—
Jinha shot into the sky.
She reached them instantly.
Julian froze.
"Jinha?!"
She grabbed Jeigan tightly.
"Don't worry."
"I'm here."
Then she swung her wings violently.
"Wing Burst!"
The pressure blasted the three boys away.
They were thrown far across the sky.
"Aaaaaaaah!!!"
"We won't forget this!"
Julian shouted.
"We will take revenge one day!"
Jinha slowly descended toward the rooftop with Jeigan.
Jeigan stared at her wings in amazement.
"Wow…"
"Your wings are huge… and beautiful."
"If I'm not wrong… those aren't bird wings."
"Are they from a dragon?"
Jinha nodded calmly.
"Yes."
"They come from a dragon."
"An Archdragon."
Jeigan was stunned.
"You controlled a dragon?"
Jinha shook her head.
"No."
"I didn't control it."
"It was happy… so it granted me this deal power."
They landed gently on the rooftop.
"Deal Cancel."
"Deal Rejected."
Her wings disappeared.
Jeigan looked curious.
"But how did that happen?"
Jinha smiled slightly.
"Well… actually…"
