They were supposed to be treasure maps, but they were actually just two hand-painted drawings.
The treasure map in Dark's hands was still okay. At least it was made of a material like parchment. The background and routes on the treasure map were all drawn with magic energy pens, which were quite delicate.
But after he glanced at the treasure map in White's hand, he found that what White got was just a piece of work paper, and it was full of scribbles.
White was originally excited to get what his father left behind, but in the blink of an eye, he moved the drawing in shame and covered it with half of his body.
Dark, on the other hand, didn't have this concern and looked at it openly.
Principal Arte did not say which area the two treasure maps pointed to, but they were obviously related to the secret passage.
And considering it from the standpoint of the Hero and Valkyrie.
These were most likely left by the two parents out of a whim when they were students.
Most likely, they were not that dedicated to their future children.
Maybe it was just some trend that arose at that time; not only the Hero and the Valkyrie, maybe some other students also had left similar treasures.
Dark carefully looked at the treasure map in his hand and found that it was a treasure map with markers as connection points.
The original marker was what looked like a chess piece.
Alvette's painting level was quite good, but it used the cute chibi style, which made Dark feel very troubled.
In short, after reading it, he made up his mind that if he could not find the so-called treasure before the end of the semester, he would go home and ask the Valkyrie.
...
Principal Arte reminded at the end, "If the treasures exist, they will not disappear for no reason. You have plenty of time to find them, so don't be too impatient; especially White, you should pay more attention to schoolwork."
Then she didn't say anything else.
Whether it was politics, public opinion or other derivative topics, she did not mention any of it.
But Dark could already see a lot from her attitude.
She might use their identities to make some things happen outside, but she wouldn't bring those things into the academy.
The castle of Saint Marian would be a wall, shielding students from the wind and rain.
(๑˙―˙๑)emmm… If the students didn't read the newspaper.
White obviously didn't have that habit.
Dark on the other hand would not miss any issue.
...
After leaving the office, Dark and White parted ways.
Although the principal gave treasure maps to both of them, the quality of the treasure maps, as well as their attitude towards the treasure maps were all different.
Since his mother was still alive, Dark felt that it could be used as an extracurricular pastime at most.
But White valued the treasure map much more; according to the principal, it was a treasure left to him by his father, who was a hero.
Whether it was the treasure map itself or the hidden treasure, both held a strong commemorative meaning.
If it wasn't for the fact that Traveller Street wasn't open for a while, he might have found a picture frame to frame it.
Treasure maps made of homework paper were too easy to break.
White carefully kept the treasure map safe; ready to go back to the dormitory to put it away.
Originally he had thought of going to the infirmary to pick up Robert, but now he changed his mind.
...
Students who had been infused with Soulless Water could leave the infirmary now.
Robert stood at the door of the infirmary in a daze, sighing in his heart. My one day vacation, gone.
The students who left the infirmary were all in pairs, and he was the only one who was alone.
Thinking of the appearance of White being transformed, he told himself that he must be careful not to mention it.
He had experience, so he knew how embarrassing it is.
(⊙o⊙) Oh.
Now he knew that White had been changed into a girl, but White didn't know that he had been changed too, which is an advantage.
Great!
...
The couples who left the infirmary with Robert were unaware that they could escape the disaster because their feelings for each other were not sincere.
If they knew...
They would not necessarily break up.
After all, sometimes both men and women don't really care that much.
...
In the infirmary, the members of the seafood order had also woken up one after another.
Except for Mr. Starfish, who was the most severely corrupted by the goddess's residual divinity, the "brainwashing effect" of the others had been completely eliminated.
Because Sister Kaleid only separated them from the victims, they who had their seafood costumes removed saw the real appearance of the other order members for the first time.
After confirming the identities of the others, everyone looked very embarrassed.
Memories from this period of time kept popping up, making them feel more and more ashamed...
For example– Miss Moray: When she thought that she had captured her best friend and ex-boyfriend as a sacrifice under the impetus of evil thoughts, she... laughed secretly!
If there had not been the influence of the goddess, she probably would not have dared to do that.
Eh? Surprisingly, she felt very satisfied!
Scott was also leaning on the bed in a trance.
He felt like he had done a lot of things that he wanted to do but didn't dare to do before.
Compared to being invited by Mr. Starfish to join the order in the past, he felt that his whole body and mind were much more relaxed.
It was just that the current situation was still unclear, and he didn't know what punishment would be given to him next.
But as long as he didn't get expelled, it would be fine.
"How about we..."
Except for Mr. Starfish, the rest of the order members suddenly came to a consensus to stick together after making eye contact with each other.
The goddess can fall.
The order cannot fail!
...
In fact, the goddess residual divinity only magnified their evil thoughts and hatred, making their hearts distorted, rather than creating them out of nothing.
If there was no influence of the goddess residual divinity, their evil thoughts would be suppressed by good thoughts, and they would still be lawful on the surface.
In short, they would pay for what they've done, but probably not particularly badly.
Only Mr. Starfish who really planned all this would probably have to pay a greater price.
As for the final judgement, it would have to wait until the seven pairs of victims fully recover.
Professor Didi, who had a greater accountability, and Professor Cazer, who had actually been considered negligent, would also be held responsible for this.
About two to three days later, the academy would report this matter to the court in its entirety and accept legal penalties.
...
If no one took the opportunity to make trouble, it would be soon over.
If this was in wartime, probably the whole case would be dismissed because no one was killed.
The legal system of the kingdom had not yet been perfected to that level.
The institutions like the Saint Marian Academy were even beyond the jurisdiction of the Kingdom's statutes.
In principle, no reporting would have been required.
The whole case could have been reviewed internally.
...
At the same time.
Dark, who had returned to the dormitory, was studying the treasure map in a more casual manner.
"Bang bang bang!"
He opened the door and saw that Dianna and Rose were fully armed.
Dianna looked up at him and said excitedly, "Dark, let's explore the secret passage!"
Dark: "Huh?"
