Divine Luck: SSS-Rank Battle Maid Harem Chapter 300 Pressured

The others were a little surprised. The dragon's pressure had been overwhelming, but it hadn't been enough for any of them to faint, not even Anerias. But Zach had. It was a slight misunderstanding on their part.

Zach hadn't fainted because of the dragon's pressure. He fainted because the dragon made him faint with its snort. The dragon exerted so of its strength and showed Zach the difference in their strengths.

The principal let it happen since the dragon didn't harm Zach, and frankly, he agreed with it. Zach needed to learn so manners.

But to the others, it looked like Zach had fainted before he got the chance to fall to his knees. His reputation as the strongest student took a hit.

Zach woke up with a nudge from Yanael, letting him be present for when the principal presented Lexi with a string of nine vials of blood. A few of them looked discolored, and a couple oozed with power that threatened to break the vials.

It was the good stuff straight from the principal and his familiars. He, more than most, also wanted to push the egg to its limits. He wanted to see what kind of creature would be born from an egg that the summoning interface couldn't properly identify or assess.

Naturally, he had to bring it the best nourishnt possible, and what better nourishnt could there be than his and his familiars' blood?

The egg greedily devoured it all but still showed no reaction. Contrary to what one might expect, Zach and the principal were only more excited. If it still didn't react to blood that powerful, the creature inside the egg would certainly be a lofty being.

But that begged the question, what being would be loftier than dragons and whatever else the principal had, the principal himself, angels, desert witches, and a literal deity?

Zach and the principal couldn't wait to find out.

Unfortunately, Lexi was headed ho. And while she wanted the egg to hatch, she wasn't in as much of a hurry as Zach and the principal. And she certainly wouldn't be in a hurry to inform them when the egg hatched. If she did, it might take days before she saw her familiar again.

But Zach and the principal were too excited to be disappointed about Lexi taking the egg away. Besides, it wasn't like she was disappearing. She was going ho, the very ho Zach shared. The principal didn't live in the east. His ho was the Academy. But he wasn't restricted.

The entire Empire was his playground. If he wanted to maybe check on the egg, it wouldn't even take a day to visit the estate and return to the Academy.

He just had to be a little polite when visiting.

The Evandiels weren't one of the four founding ducal households because they had a pretty na, after all. The principal wasn't scared of anyone in the Empire, but he didn't cause trouble unless he thought it was worth it. And he didn't need to cause trouble just to check on a summoner and their familiar.

Private lessons, maybe? That should work as an excuse since Lexi didn't attend his Academy but was still granted permission to use the Chamber of Ceremony.

The principal and the students looked at the back of Lexi's carriage as it shrank on the distant road until it was barely visible. The principal then turned his head as if he sensed sothing. He glanced in the direction of Basilia.

"Whoops," he said nonchalantly. He patted Zach on the shoulder.

"Good luck, I guess." The principal disappeared before Zach could ask him why he would say sothing so horrible. Wishing good luck to Zach was the sa as cursing him, even if he had been relatively lucky as of late.

But even with less than a few months left of the school year, there was still a lot of room for Zach's unlucky streak to rear its ugly head.

Whether it was because of the principal's familiar or Zach's bad luck, the Underworld decided to make a move.

The ground shook.

Sohow, Zach could tell it was not the sa kind of tremor as when the baby had struck the ground after its birth. But he could not tell what it was. It did give him a bad feeling, though.

He and the others exchanged glances. They started running toward the city.

If even the principal wished them luck, they would certainly need it. They couldn't slack off any more than this. But it was at least a relief that they got the baby away before it happened.

Fragnts of talismans ca flying their way as soon as they approached the city. It couldn't even be called a proper attack. It was just coincidence. Sothing had gotten rid of the talismans in the city and they happened to fly in their direction.

The underworld energy in the city was both unruly and calm. It was restless but forced to remain still.

Since it wasn't as dense as it was underground, Zach and the others could sowhat see into the city. Their gazes followed the main street to the city center, or rather, what used to be the city center.

There wasn't a crater in front of the Academy. Instead, there was one in the center of Basilia. But this one was not caused by any familiar of the principal.

It was caused by the underworlder standing in the middle of it with his arms crossed and eyes closed.

It was, without a doubt, a Nad underworlder. And neither Maer nor Mursoth could compare to him.

Maer and Mursoth couldn't even touch the edges of the underworlders' rocky skin or burly muscles.

The underworlder didn't move even after the students arrived at the city. It was only when they stepped foot within its borders that he opened his eyes and looked at them with stony grey eyeballs.

If they hadn't just faced the principal's dragon, the students might have cared more about the pressure from the underworlder. An erroneous judgnt.

The underworlder was more dangerous.

The dragon would never harm any of the principal's students.

The underworlder would kill them.
