Chapter 126 We still don't know the name of the flower we saw that day
***Edited by Kronost***
Dark's expression froze, and it took him a while to react.
He silently recalled Lady Devimon into the card before continuing to look at Minotaur's body.
It was not that Lady Devimon couldn't be exposed, but he didn't want too many people to know that Lady Devimon was the evolution of his familiar spirit.
Although familiar spirits also belonged to the category of magical spirit, it was extremely special and had no attack stats in theory.
In order to give familiar spirits attack stats, a magic card called [Curse Cage] must be used.
[Curse Cage] can temporarily seal pseudo-lifeform such as familiar spirit and golem in cards, and make it usable as a magical spirit card.
...
Minotaur's body didn't remain as Dark thought.
It gradually disappeared after about three minutes, just like the murals.
It was that, unlike the murals that disappeared without any traces, Minotaur left a very thick bull's hair.
Dark pinched the bull's hair with two fingers and looked at it carefully, feeling rather speechless.
But having such a strand of hair was better than nothing.
He quickly accepted this fact, and carefully put away the bull's hair.
Then he turned and walked towards the crowd.
White and Robert had recovered.
Emma was leaning against the wall by herself, flipping through her notes.
Dianna and Rose were chatting with each other with smiles.
Dark walked over and said, "Let's go back. There are classes tomorrow."
So everyone went to the secret passage exit together.
Halfway through, a "little fairy" the size of a palm came through the wall and found them.
This "little fairy", which looked almost the same as Professor Lily at first sight, flew around them twice, and then began to lead the way.
Dianna chased after the "fairy" like a kitten chasing a dragonfly.
Dark and others couldn't help but quicken their pace.
They soon exited the secret passage.
Outside the secret passage, there were many people on their way back to the dormitory.
The "little fairies" who took them out of the secret passage were densely crowded in mid-air, and their rapidly vibrating wings made "buzzing" noises.
Obviously, a single "little fairy" looked very cute, but when hundreds of them were crowded together, it could only make people feel terrified.
Mhm, should I say, as expected of Professor Lily?
Dark was also slightly startled by it.
...
After finally returning to the dormitory, Dark hurriedly said good night to Dianna and Rose, then locked the door, washed his face and brushed his teeth, fed the cat, watered the tree, and went to his bed, all in one go!
The holiday is finally over.
But it's doomed to be a sleepless night tonight.
...
The next morning at half past six.
Dark sat in the common room, watching Demi Devimon fly back with a basket, feeling that life was finally back on track.
Alas!
After all, this is the life he wants!
Things like the dance party, Moon Goddess, and secret passages can go to hell!
Dark, who felt a little satisfied, first took out the breakfast from the basket, and then took out today's "Daily Sage".
He took a sip of milk, opened the newspaper, and glanced at it very casually.
"Pff!"
The milk almost spewed out.
He looked at the headlines of the newspapers, not feeling well in an instant.
→[Shocked! Duke's House may be married to the royal family. Duke's son and the royal princess are engaged on Halloween! ]
Below was a picture of Dark dancing with someone.
Dark in the picture was wearing a Night Prince suit and half a black crow mask, which was mysterious and handsome.
And his dance partner was wearing the same style princess dress, but only revealed a back view
But isn't this Dianna?
Is it because the photo of dancing with the bear costume was not attractive enough, so the newspaper found this as a substitute?
But what about your conduct as a journalist?
Dark really didn't know what to say.
He then continued to read again, and found that there was no mention of the Moon Goddess in the newspaper.
Dark didn't know if it was because the manuscript hadn't been written yet, or if it'd been suppressed.
Or are they waiting for something?
"Why didn't I find out before that Daily Sage is such a sensational newspaper? Maybe it's time to consider another one."
Dark sighed, but still, read the entire newspaper while eating the meal.
As the newspaper with the largest circulation in the kingdom, "Daily Sage" often did not represent the voice of the newspaper itself.
Whether true or not, this headline obviously had ulterior motives.
"Do they want to tie the forces behind the king's second consort to the eldest princess?"
"But if this report is dominated by the dovish faction, wouldn't it be superfluous?"
"It won't be a pure entertainment report, will it?"
After several guesses to no avail, Dark put down the newspaper, closed his eyes, and calmed down before starting the pre-class preview.
...
The first class after Halloween was arithmetic.
Professor Lily wrote a question on the blackboard: "How many fairies did I release last night to catch you?"
The scene was dead silent, and no one could answer this sharp question that apparently lacked the necessary conditions.
Then, Professor Lily wrote a second question on the blackboard: "How many people were late this morning?"
One of the students raised her hand bravely.
"Emma Mortis, please answer."
"Eight people were late, Professor."
"Very good, Mortis gets 5 points. Everyone who's late minus 5 points and go stand at the back of the classroom!"
So, three Noble House, five Knight House, a total of eight students drooped their shoulders and came to the back of the classroom, standing in a full row.
Dark, who was sitting in the back row, could see their embarrassment and frustration as long as he turned his head a little.
Although since the start of the academy year, there were always people who were late to the class, it was actually the first time for so many people to be punished like this.
Probably Professor Lily also didn't expect that only two days of vacation would make the students become so slack off.
Among the eight, Doron of Noble House suddenly raised his hand.
Professor Lily squinted her eyes: "Doron, what do you want to say?"
Doron, who was late for the first time in his life, gritted his teeth and said, "Professor, I wasn't deliberately late."
Professor Lily: "No one was."
Doron: "I, I'm different! I was late because I woke up in the morning feeling exhausted..."
Professor Lily: "Yes, Doron. I already know you're late because you slept in, so keep your mouth shut."
There was laughter in the classroom.
Doron shut up immediately.
The rest of the latecomers were also ashamed and dared not speak.
No one noticed that several of them had two shallow marks on the back of their necks that were about to fade away.
In short.
After class, they were given double the homework.
...
The second class was Professor Cazer's introduction to magic.
In the third month of the first year, Professor Cazer finally began to teach about the making of magic spell cards.
He didn't look very good today, but he still said, "Today, we start to learn one of the methods of making magic spell cards- How to brand the spell in the card!"
