Ex Rank Supporting Role’s Replay in a Prestigious School

‘Yeah, Cheongryong and the shamans are in charge of opening the way to the Dragon Palace.’

Teleportation and transportation exist in this world.

One of the examples is Ong Gildong’s light skill Magician’s Silk Hat which can teleport items he put in his hat.

Although it’s a great skill, it’s not efficient in terms of energy wave consumption, and it’s very difficult to move living organisms.

The longer the distance traveled, the more severe the energy wave consumption.

The principle of other teleport-type skills wouldn’t be much different, but it seems that the powerful royal lineage Dragon Clan can do it.

‘However, if the number of people increases like this, it will be impossible to teleport with just the Cheongryong and the shamans’ power. As one of the heads of the 12-point alliance, Cheongryong must be using earth power, and the shamans must be borrowing power from the Dragon King.’

The true home of the Dragon Clan is the Dragon Palace, but the space that the 12-point alliance protects for the Dragon Clan is the Red Lion’s building.

The boundary is narrower and less powerful than the one in Eungwang High though.

This is the result of moving once and re-establishing a boundary.

The Dragon Clan was originally located on the west coast, but they moved out at the expense of their descendant who married a human, and another descendant who attends Eungwang High.

As a result, the boundary from the alliance weakened, but there was no problem because the shamans added power to the boundary, and the Red Lion team members were stationed there anyway.

Cheongryong’s use of earth power also helped solidify the Dragon Clan’s defense.

‘Cheongryong’s use of earth power is good, of course. The problem is with the shamans.’

The five colors surrounded the five shamans.

It is a symbol of the power that the shamans borrowed from the Dragon King.

How could the absent Dragon King lend them power?

“You’re Junyeol’s hoobae that we saw last time. Is he our guest today?”

A woman with her back against a light-yellow cloud, the sure traitor Yoohwang, recognized and spoke to me.

According to Yong Jegun, the shamans were told that a guest was coming today.

The shamans questioned it at first, but when Cheongryong said “Even the Dragon Clan can’t predict Yong Jegun’s intentions,” they immediately understood.

There’s no reading Yong Jegun.

Keeping the truth to myself, I greeted back.

“Hello.”

“You’re as polite as ever. I’m sure the Dragon King will welcome you.”

“Euishin received permission from the Dragon King to enter the palace. Of course, the same goes for Shinrok and Jeokho whom I invited.”

“I see. I’m relieved.”

Yoohwang welcomed me with warm words, but I couldn’t take it with pleasure.

I got goosebumps at the sight of Yoohwang welcoming me affectionately as Yeom Junyeol’s junior.

Knowing that she helped spray the bitter snow on Eungwang High and that she’s a traitor who participated in killing dragons and Yeom Bangyeol in PMH…

It was inevitable that the Dragon Clan, who spent a long time with them, would be doubtful of everyone.

Following Yoohwang, Ja then asked.

“It’s nice that we have many guests. But are there no guests who received yongsae from Hwangryong-nim and Cheongryong-nim?”

Ja, the shaman closest to the Dragon Clan and humans, must be curious about yongsae.

It’s only natural for the shamans to be interested in guests, but everyone refrained from answering.

It’s been promised in advance to refrain from having more conversations than necessary with the shamans.

I smiled vaguely at the question as if I didn’t know the answer.

“You’re curious about my guests? I’m curious about them too. I’ll ask them myself.”

“Eh? But Yong Jegun-nim, you’re the one who called these guests…”

“Shinrok-ah, I just happened to have lots of questions. I mean, it’s about your class.”

When Yong Jegun smiled and started to ask Kim Shinrok unnecessary questions, the shamans’ desire to talk to the guests disappeared.

Some shamans smiled bitterly at Yong Jegun’s usual behavior, but I don’t think they’re having doubts.

“The preparation is done. Yong Jegun, go ahead and take the guests to the Palace.”

“Alright, let’s go.”

Yong Jegun took the lead and stood at the center of the five shamans, while Kim Shinrok and I followed.

As we were engulfed in the earth power and five colors, I felt pressure from the strength.

This much power is needed to transfer long distances, and I don’t know if I’d get motion sickness.

Finally, when Jeokho stepped into the center of the power, a cyan space developed around us.

Fwaat!

The air felt lighter after Yong Jegun created a space.

It was quite thick so the outside looked opaque.

The intensity was high for an instant spatial summoning.

“I did well, right?”

“You were supposed to do it earlier.”

“I thought you’d feel the effect more if I did it later.”

Yong Jegun only laughed at Kim Shinrok’s remark.

After that, Cheongryong moved as well.

“Be considerate to our precious guests.”

Hwaaraak!

Cheongryong’s blue flames wrapped around the cyan space.

It was such a thick flame that it was hard to see outside.

I can’t believe he can do that while using earth power.

Can every clan head do that?

If Hwang Jiho were here, he’d say “This body can do that too.”

“I will help as well.”

Finally, Yeom Bangyeol’s flames covered us.

As the three layers of powerful force enveloped us, the sense of earth power and the shamans’ power weighing on my body completely disappeared.

When Jeokho nodded, Yong Jegun looked out through the flames and spoke.

“I’ll leave it up to you, Yeom Bangyeol.”

The dragons and the shamans were going with us to the palace, but Yeom Bangyeol will remain.

Yeom Bangyeol judged that he couldn’t use his power on the sea floor where the Dragon Palace was located.

Other than that, he had to remain in charge of the place.

Yeom Bangyeol replied as if saying goodbye.

“Leave it up to me. I wish you a good trip.”

Kwaaaaa!

With those dependable words, earth power and the five colors swirled together.

The sight shook our field of view.

I felt dizzy as I was thrown into the torrent of power.

The impact of the teleportation has stripped us one by one.

When the red flame and blue flame disappeared, the cyan space cracked.

The roar and shock stopped like a lie.

‘So this is the Dragon Palace.’

We were at the bottom of the sea.

The sea light was rising outside the large air dome.

When I looked in front, I saw a huge pair of doors.

One side of the double door was blue, the symbol of Cheongryong, while the other was yellow, the symbol of Hwangryong.

As I looked at the five-colored doorway, Yong Jegun spoke to me.

“We’re here. Are you tired? Should I carry you?”

“No.”

“I wasn’t asking you, Shinrok-ie. I was talking to Euishin. Ah, but if you’re tired, Shinrok-ie, I can carry you on—”

“No need.”

Yong Jegun and Kim Shinrok looked very fine.

I don’t think I have anything to worry about since we’ve arrived just fine despite that great power.

“Son, tell me whenever you need anything.”

“…It’s alright.”

I don’t think there’s any problem with Jeokho either.

All the guests seemed to be fine except me.

I caught my breath and spoke.

“I’m okay, thank you.”

“Really? I think Hwangho-ssi will be worried.”

“Please tell him I’m fine.”

Why is Hwang Jiho brought up here?

Yong Jegun spoke slyly, but I took a rough hit.

Yong Jegun has been teasing me ever since, but there was no problem since everyone looked fine.

The motion sickness completely subsided from Yong Jegun’s words.

“I don’t think I need to open the door.”

After teasing the group as much as he could, Yong Jegun spoke as he was about to put his hand on the door.

Even though he didn’t touch it, the doorknob glowed in five colors and slowly began to open.

Kugugu…

As both sides of the door opened, yellow clouds spread through the cracks of the door.

Someone stepped and walked out.

It was a blindfolded someone.

‘If it’s this much pressure, it must be Hwangryong.’

When Hwangryong came into view, Kim Shinrok sighed.

“Ah…”

Kim Shinrok was looking at the blindfold covering Hwangryong’s eyes.

It was designed very much like Yong Jegun’s.

The difference was that his blindfold was made of golden thread.

Kim Shinrok couldn’t take his eyes off the blindfold until the end.

“You arrived safely.”

“Hello, Hwangryong. We meet again.”

“It hasn’t been long since we last met.”

“And the shamans in the palace?”

They weren’t really “shamans,” but they were referred to as such out of respect.

They were referred to as the Dragon Palace Shamans, while the five real ones were called the Dragon King’s Shamans.

Hwangryong answered.

“The Dragon Palace Shamans are adjusting to the boundary that connects this place to the land. We have a lot of guests so there’s a lot of work to do. I have to go soon too.”

Hwangryong came out to meet us even though he was busy.

I thought it was because of Yong Jegun, but it could also be because of Kim Shinrok.

“So you’re Yong Jegun’s only friend. I wanted to meet you.”

When Hwangryong suddenly spoke to him, Kim Shinrok was flustered and couldn’t respond properly.

Hwangryong watched Kim Shinrok and talked again as if it was surprising that he was nothing like Yong Jegun.

“I hope we can talk a lot during your stay. I’ve always been curious since Yong Jegun brags about his friend.”

Hwangryong also greeted the other guests.

He looked at me and then at Jeokho.

“All the guests today must’ve gotten permission. Both the tigers and the human who came here for the first time. There’s no problem then.”

I thought he wouldn’t pay attention to the less visible guests, but Hwangryong seemed to want to meet all of us and at least have a conversation.

At that time, I could see the sea water fluctuating greatly in the distance.

It’s a sign that the others are heading to the palace.

“I have to go. You can rest now, coming here must’ve been tiring. It’s a little difficult to have a conversation now, but I hope we can talk later. I’m very interested in the things on earth.”

Hwangryong said as he looked at me and Jeokho.

I wanted to talk to Hwangryong too, so I should pay him a visit later.

“You said you wanted to use the Blue Dragon Palace in the east, right?”

“Yeah, I like that palace.”

“Alright, Yong Jegun. Guide the guests.”

After saying that, Hwangryong finally left.

As we crossed the threshold after Yong Jegun, the Dragon Palace finally became visible.

The Dragon Palace fit well with the magnificent and rugged mountains.

The palace was situated between the mountain ranges that looked like a dragon and a tiger curled up.
