Chapter 56 I Prefer The Term Affectionate Individuals
56 I Prefer The Term Affectionate Individuals
“Don’t feel so down, Ethan,” Chloe said as she tried to keep the smug smile on her face from appearing.
Although she didn’t want to make fun of the handsome, blue-haired teenager, she couldn’t stop herself from feeling happy because she managed to beat him in the class rankings during their exercises.
“Don’t hold yourself back,” Ethan replied. “I can see the corners of your lips tWitching from trying to hold back the smile on your face.”
As if the damn had broken, a giggle escaped Chloe’s lips, which made Ethan roll his eyes at her.
“I’m sorry,” Chloe apologized with a smile. “I just can’t stop myself, okay?”
Another sigh escaped Ethan’s lips as they walked towards their next class, which was the Study of Magical Creatures.
He might be in a bad mood, but Ethan always looked forward to Professor Njal’s class.
The blue-haired boy was quite interested in the discussion about the different Magical Creatures, as well as their different characteristics.
Perhaps, this all started when he first saw a Dragon on the train ride towards Brynhildr Academy. Back then, he thought that he was just daydreaming.
But after realizing that everything was real, he found himself alone, and lost, in a world where Wizards, Witches, Elves, Dwarves, Beastkins, and other Magical Creatures existed.
“Good morning everyone,” Professor Njal greeted everyone as soon as he arrived at the clearing near the Great Eagle Forest. “Today, I have a special guest for all of you. Well then, without further delay, allow me to introduce to you our special guest! Make way for Tyr, the Satyr!”
As soon as Professor Njal made his introduction, the sound of a lyre playing spread in the surroundings.
A moment later, a half-goat, half human creature appeared from the forest and gave everyone a respectful bow.
The Satyr looked like a teenage boy, and he was quite good looking. If not for the fact that he had two goat horns protruding from his head, and his lower half was that of a goat, he would definitely be very popular with the ladies in the Academy.
“The name is Tyr,” Tyr introduced himself. “And I am one of the Satyrs of Great Eagle Forest. It’s a pleasure to meet everyone, especially the beautiful ladies here today.”
The Satyr gave the ladies a sweet smile, which made them giggle.
“As you can see, these folks are very good at sweet talking the ladies,” Professor Njal. “Also, girls, make sure to stay away from Satyrs if you are exploring the wilderness alone. They are well known for seducing ladies, and getting under their skirts.”
“You make it sound like we are womanizers,” Tyr replied with a helpless tone. “But, I can’t refute these words for they are very true. If I find myself in the company of a lady, I am afraid that I will do my best to woo her. As for what happens next… that would depend on the ladies wishes.”
Tyr didn’t shy away from the truth for this was their way of life. There had been many instances where Satyrs had seduced women, and even men, and almost everyone in the magical world knew that their libido was always high.
Satyresses, the lady version of the Satyrs, would also not hesitate to woo any men whom they found 10:47
in the wild. However, they were extremely rare to find.
Some Magical Beast Researchers even said that one Satyress is born one out of hundreds of thousands of Satyrs, making them the flower among the thorns of the Satyr Race.
Of course, even though they had a bad reputation, those who had interacted with Satyrs for a long time knew that these creatures were really passionate about their way of life.
As long as someone was not swayed by the Satyr’s sweet words and gentle touch, they would be fine being in their company.
“So, I will tell everyone here, especially the ladies, how to protect yourselves from these womanizers,” Professor Njal.
“Excuse me? Can you not call us womanizers?” Tyr commented. “I prefer the term Affectionate Individuals.”
“Uhh… fine.” Professor Njal scratched his head before shifting his attention back to his students. “First and foremost, Satyrs are often found in Forests, and other kinds of woodlands. Of course, some of them also like to travel, and even go to Human cities to get to know our way of life.”
Professor Njal then began to explain a Satyr’s strengths and weaknesses.
“Satyrs’ main weakness is their uncontrollable lust on certain days of the month,” Professor Njal. “Their usual partners are the dryads and the Nymphs of the forest, but if there are any other demi-human females around, they will certainly take their chances and pounce on them without a second thought.
“Because of this, a barrier is placed upon the Academy to protect the students from any unexpected situations. The good news was that ever since the Satyrs moved into the Great Eagle Forest, no accidents have occurred between them and the ladies of the academy.”
Tyr nodded his head as if to affirm this information.
“My Ancestors and the Founder of this Academy, Fortis Dud, had an agreement that we were allowed to stay here, for as long as we don’t extend our… affection to the beautiful ladies of the Academy,” Tyr said with a slightly disappointed tone. “However, if any of you ladies want some good company, feel free to find me in the Eastern Regions of the Great Eagle Forest.
“That is where our home is located. Don’t worry. You will be safe in our company, as long as you don’t stay overnight. If you do that, it would mean that you are consenting to be with us and to share a night to remember.”
The handsome Satyr winked at the ladies, earning him a round of smiles and giggles from them.
The boys, on the other hand, didn’t feel offended or disgusted by the Satyr’s openness to court the ladies of their class. In fact, they found it quite refreshing that Tyr was telling them their way of life.
“Satyrs use weapons like short bows and short swords,” Professor Njal continued his explanation. “Do not be deceived by Tyr’s calm and gentle nature. Satyrs are very agile, especially inside the forest. They can move very quickly and attack you in your blind spot if you engage them in combat.
“Those horns on his head are also not for show. If given the opportunity, he will ram them into your bodies to deal a deadly blow that would give you serious injuries. They also kick real hard, strong enough to break bones.
“Likewise, if you use a binding spell on their legs, they won’t be able to do anything, which would make it easy for you to attack them. However, you must hit them first. If not, your chances of defeating them are nil.”
Tyr nodded his head. “We also have another weakness, and that is none other than being weak to the ladies. We can kill men without batting an eye, but we would do our best not to harm women, for we treat them as precious things. This is why most Magical Beast Poachers, who capture Magical Creatures, especially Satyrs, are all women.”
The class continued on a happy note, and Tyr answered everyone’s questions. Of course, some of the boys asked him some indecent inquiries, which made the ladies look at those people with contempt.
To his credit, Tyr just laughed these indecent questions off, and even said that he would leave the answer to everyone’s imagination.
Ethan, who learned a great deal about Satyrs on that day vowed to himself that if he and Chloe ever met a Satyr in the wild, he would definitely drag his cousin away before the lustful creatures could even think of seducing her with their sweet words, and passionate promises of pleasure.
