Chapter 240: Supernatural Response Units

Everyone was waiting for the first class of Introduction to Supernatural Ethics & Law. As it was one of the compulsory courses, all the cadets of the primary term were present in the lecture theatre... the same hall where they had attended Professor Sylpha’s class earlier.

Therefore, the Council agreed to form a team of Dragons as Enforcers. You are all aware that Dragons live long lives, usually in isolation with their immediate kin. They never formed clans, even though their genetics are closely matched. Physically, they are considered equals among themselves, and superior to most other races. For these reasons, the Enforcer team was formed under the Council, tasked
