Volume 3.5 Chapter 36:  That Horse

"Huh?" Tennol was surprised. 

"All the horses are taken," Keith repeated. Looking around, he noticed all the horses were paired up with a student. 

"Did we make a mistake?" Tennol questioned. He was surprised. Never did he expect there to be a miscount. 

"I'm sorry, Keith. There seemed to be a miscount in horses," One of the assistants apologized. 

"Professor, there is one more horse."

"Huh?" Tennol's expression changed, "No! We're not giving that horse to a student." How could he even suggest something like that?!

"There's another horse?" Keith's eyes brightened. Tennol shook his head,

"There's no way you can pair with that horse, Keith."

"Why not?"

"That's because that horse is a little temperamental," Tennol took a deep sigh. 

"Temperamental, how?" Keith tilted his head. 

"That horse is more of a monster than a horse. It's a special horse that our academy captured. But no one has been able to tame it. Even our instructors got hurt." Tennol explained. But then he noticed the eager expression. 

"What's the matter?" 

"I want to give it a try!" Keith wanted to see the horse!

"..." Tennol didn't say anything as he stared at Keith. Did you not hear what I said? But he stared at Keith's limbs. He's wearing a few bracelets on each of his limbs. 

That was surprising. There was more than what Cadmus said. 

If he meets with the horse. Even Tennol was curious about whether or not he could tame it. He turned to the assistant, "Go get that horse later," 

"Are you sure?" The assistant was surprised he would say that. But Tennol nodded, 

"Then I will take responsibility," Tennol stated. He was going to bear the responsibility if Keith got hurt. He turned to Keith,

"Student Keith, I will show you the horse later,"

"Understood!" Keith bowed his head. Like that, Keith had watched the other students ride their horses. He rested on the sidelines. 

"Look at that. The class representative couldn't even get a horse!"

"Pathetic!"

"He sitting there alone,"

Keith couldn't hear them as he stared into space. He was resting and taking his time. What kind of horse was it? For Tennol to be so worried showed how dangerous it was. 

While he was lost in thought, Krystal stared at him. She frowned. After some time, Tennol stated, "You guys are the ones who will take care of the horse. We will have no responsibility for it. If they're injured, it's your duty to take care of them. And if they die, you will face a heavy consequence."

Tennol's eyes turned dark as he said the last sentence. 

"..." The students gulped when they heard that. They live and die with their partner. 

"Yes, sir!" The students nodded when they heard that. One by one, the students walked their horses back to the stable. 

Keith had changed to his uniform. He came to the training ground where Tennol was. But he wasn't alone. Cadmus, Sohma, and Aidiun were there as well. 

"Grandpa Cadmus, why are you guys here?" Keith was surprised to see them here as well. Cadmus smiled, "Tennol called us here for added security."

"I see," How dangerous is the horse? For Cadmus and Sohma to come here meant it was really dangerous. 

Keith turned to Tennol, "Instructor Tennol, where is the horse?"

"The assistants are bringing it in,"

"Come on!"

"Hold it down properly!" Keith and the rest turned to see the assistants dragging in a cart!

"What the?" Keith blinked his eyes a few times as he stared at it. The horse was chained up on top of a cart. 

"Wait, you guys caught a Shadow War Horse?" Aidiun was a little surprised when he saw the horse. 

"Mmhmm, it was out in the open. It seemed to not care about its surroundings. And we caught it," Tennol laughed.

"But it was so annoying. That thing was jumping around like no tomorrow. It knocked out two assistants," Because they couldn't injure it, it made it extra hard to capture the horse. 

"I see," 

"Keith, you got a rare one. War horses like this are faster and more powerful than any other horse." Cadmus stated. 

"I see," Keith stated.

"And you forget to mention that it's also the most destructive and least tamable horse out there," Sohma stated. 

"That thing refuses to let anyone ride it if they deem the rider to be unacceptable," 

"I see," Keith stared at the horse.
