EX rank supporting role’s replay in a prestigious school

Support Ex-Rank

Around Eungwang High, before outsiders were allowed to enter.

The school has four entrances: east, west, south, and north.

Each gate had a long line of outsiders waiting to enter the school.

Those in line, the students from autonomous organizations preparing for the event near the entrance, and the others around the area all had bright faces.

In the meantime, there were people of royal lineage hidden among them, waiting for the right time.

It was the Pig Clan, the subordinates of Jogangryeob.

“Any noticeable players around?”

“No, sir. There were quite a few troublesome players over the entrance, but it won’t be any problem as long as they don’t come here.”

Those who had been looking around the other entrances reported.

Then, the subordinate leading the Pig Clan on behalf of Jogangryeob nodded with a satisfied look.

‘I wanted to take care in advance of those players who are noticeable, but this is good.’

It seems that those who will attend Eungwang High’s event are ordinary people or small-time players.

Jogangryeob’s subordinate gave orders again.

“If so, move according to plan.”

“Understood!”

The pig people scattered through each entrance.

Jogangyreob’s subordinate remained at the east gate and stared briefly at their backs.

Even though they were working in the territory of the Tiger Clan, the Pig Clan seemed motivated.

Of course, the Pig Clan has repeatedly failed to actualize ‘that person’s’ plan.

They weren’t able to neutralize Jeokho.

The failed assassination of the Joo-Oh and TC Groups’ next leaders on the Kimopolea.

Jogangryeob lost the Sangbosimgeumpa to a man wearing a crow mask.

On top of that, they were seriously injured by a red-clad royal lineage woman and were unable to move for a long time.

After the Pig Clan turned their back on the 12-point alliance, their humiliations continued.

‘The biggest failure was cutting off Cheonik Mountain’s earth power…’

Until the beginning of this year, the plan was going well without any problems.

Hwangho, the Guardian of the Tiger Clan’s territory, was negligent, while Baekho and Jeokho were awkward with each other.

As the earth power from Cheonik Mountain weakened, Shinsoo became weaker and weaker and could’ve been killed anytime.

It was around the 12-point alliance meeting that the situation began to change.

— [Tiger-nim] “Let’s get to the point. There is a traitor in the alliance. Someone violated the non-aggression agreement and attacked the boundary of Eungwang High and the descendant of Tiger Clan.”

— [Tiger-nim] “Of course, I won’t stay still as long as I don’t find them. As soon as the traitor is revealed, they will be expelled and condemned according to the covenant of the alliance.”

Jogangryeob lied low during the talks, but he went wild later on.

He even took it out on his men, saying it was all because of the Bear Clan.

Jogangryeob said that if only the Bear Clan had killed the Tiger Clan’s descendant, it wouldn’t have come to this situation.

His men agreed.

Since the Bear Clan is to blame, the betrayal of the Pig Clan isn’t entirely revealed.

But Hwangho’s last words sent a chill down everyone’s spine.

— [Tiger-nim] “There is no need for niceties between us. The next meeting is when the traitor will be convicted. That is all.”

The pigs were reminded of Jogangryeob whose belly was torn into several pieces.

His minions made up their minds and shook off their fears.

‘We can use this opportunity to completely trample on the Tiger Clan’s territory, and then they won’t be able to stand up…!’

The Pig Clan moved into their positions secretly.

Except for one.

It was a member of the Pig Clan who had been living abroad and recently came to Korea at the request of Jogangryeob.

It was one of Eitri’s, one of Brokkr’s brothers, creation.

Gullinbursti.

In Norse mythology, It was a pig of gold that appeared as the vehicle of Goddess Freyr the god of fertility.

Gullinbrusti, whose gold hair was covered with a hoodie, was lost in thought.

He looked around the entrance of Eungwang High, excited.

“Rookie, go to your position!”

Jogangryeob’s subordinate jabbed and ordered, but Gullinbursti didn’t think much of it.

“I felt it when I heard about the operation this morning, but I don’t think this is right.”

“What?”

“Jogangryeob said he’ll tell me how to meet Freyr in this world. That’s why I came here willingly.”

Gullinbursti began to raise his energy waves.

Seeing that, the subordinate flinched and looked around.

As the particles of energy waves gathered toward Gullinbursti, the attention of those who were waiting for orders focused on them.

As if the gaze didn’t bother him, Gullinbursti continued.

“I miss Freyr, but I don’t want to betray and kill just to meet him. I’m sure Freyr feels the same way as I do.”

“You, don’t tell me…!”

Gullinbursti was on the alert.

Perhaps because of his gold armor or his energy waves, Gullinbursti’s body was shining gold.

He spoke to everyone.

“Everyone run away. As far as possible.”

“What…?”

Then, the subordinate’s device began to alarm.

‘It’s time!’

It was unexpected that Gullinbursti suddenly acted like that, but even if he’s a mythical being, he couldn’t have defeated the entire Pig Clan alone.

The Pig Clan appeared in unison.

Woooooaaah…!

“W-what the! He changed into an enemy!”

“There’s no alarm though? An enemy?”

“Run!”

The frightened visitors screamed out loud.

Instead of aiming for the fleeing civilians, the Pig Clan’s minions rushed toward the boundary.

Kuung! Crash! Fwiiijiik!

The minions ignored the boundary’s rejection and continued crashing themselves on it until their bodies burned.

The sound of enemies’ bodies colliding with the boundary and the sparks and smoke generated caused chaos in front of the east gate.

Gullinbursti moved to stop the minions, but it seemed impossible in this situation.

In addition, it wasn’t just the enemies that threatened Eungwang High.

Fwaaa…!

Otherworlds began to span.

It was as if someone had summoned them.

Every otherworld had a strong chill.

“Summoning an otherworld…!”

Gullinbursti, who came to the Pig Clan’s camp late, didn’t hear the full operation.

All he was asked to do was stand by around the boundary and stop players who would try to attack the otherworlds.

And something was strange with the gaps of the otherworlds.

Gullinbursti felt a strong sense of incompatibility as he felt the cold air penetrate his armor.

His armor is also his skin, so the air penetrating through couldn’t have been ordinary.

‘…I can’t use my energy waves properly!’

Unbeknownst to him, the energy poison from the frozen otherworld touched his skin and began to poison him.

On the other hand, the subordinate who was far from the energy poison’s range shouted.

“Are you scared now? If you change your mind, I’ll talk to the chief.”

“…”

“I see you don’t like it. Then I will bury you in a tiger’s graveyard!”

Jogangryeob’s subordinate shouted and ordered the minions to go after Gullinbursti.

“Even if I can’t use energy waves, I can deal with just a few enemies!”

At that momentum, the subordinate flinched and the minions faltered as well.

The moment Gullinbursti and the minions were about to collide…

His vision turned blue.

Hwuuuu!

The minions’ who surrounded them burned with blue flames.

Gullinbursti looked up at the sky where the flames came down.

In the air was a man with blue flames — Cheongryong, the head of the Dragon Clan.

The subordinate recognized him and was shocked.

“W-why is Cheongryong…!”

“Did you forget the declaration? The folly of a traitor knows no bounds.”

Why is a dragon in the Tiger Clan’s territory?

Why is Cheongryong, the head of the Dragon Clan, directly dealing with the enemy of the Tiger Clan?

The subordinate had a lot of questions but remembered Cheongryong’s declaration at the 12-point alliance talks.

[Full-level Cheongryong] “…I declare as the head of the Dragon Clan. The Dragon Clan will cooperate with the Tiger Clan to catch the traitor. Aiming for Eungwang High is the same as aiming for my kind and our descendants.”

The Pig Clan knew about this, but perhaps no one listened.

The Tiger Clan is highly suspicious of everyone because of the Bear Clan’s betrayal, and they thought they wouldn’t cooperate with the Dragon Clan.

No one expected them to truly join hands.

‘My, is it because of the Dragon Clan’s descendant? Still, there’s energy poison around. I’ll lead him into that area and deal with him first!’

Until the poison freezes and swallows the boundary, the energy poison will affect those who dare approach it.

However, Cheongryong was flying up in the sky, as if he were wary of the poison’s existence.

The minions who were rushing against the boundary were being burned by Cheongryong’s blue flames.

‘Damn it, we’ll be wiped out at this rate!’

When Jogangryeob’s subordinate ran away from the flames.

He gloated at the sight of something flying from across the sky.

As soon as Cheongryong became wary of something, the sound of tearing the air rang out.

Shwaaaak!

“…!”

Cheongryong quickly moved away to avoid the spear coming straight at him.

The energy wave on the spear was not ordinary.

Cheongryong frowned at the wielder’s identity.

“Jogangryeob!”

Jogangryeob appeared, heavily armed.

Although it wasn’t the Sangbosimgeumpa, he was fully equipped with armor and a weapon.

Cheongryong was reminded of Jogangryeob’s days in the past.

‘Like when he was Marshall Tianpeng…!’

Marshall Tianpeng who led an army of 80,000 troops.

The prime of Jogangryeob’s life before he was driven out of heaven for his drunkenness.

Jogangryeob’s appearance reminded Cheongryong of that time.

And behind him were the forces that belonged to his army.

Even 1 percent of his original army was 800 men.

However, 800 people marching from the sky isn’t easy to handle.

It was hard to imagine, but Cheongryong felt his hands chill.

‘…It will be difficult for the Dragon Clan to deal with.’

Cheongryong recalled the Dragon Clan behind him and the manpower assigned to this mission.

In the east gate was he and the Dragon Clan.

The west gate has Kwon Jein and the Lake of Eternity team.

The south gate had Yeom Bangyeol and the Red Lion team.

The north gate had Song Manseok and the Han River Cycling Team, Hong Gyubin, and Tak Geosan.

They could’ve handled the frozen otherworlds, but adding Jogangryeob and his army to the equation…

As Cheongryong’s woes deepened, a gaze was watching this entire situation among the fleeing visitors.

A child with full eyes was watching Cheongryong and Jogangryeob.
