Chapter 90 Saint Marian's Castle Ushered in Ghosts
***Edited by Kronost***
Emma Mortis held her cheeks and turned the pages of "The Golden King and the Secret Treasure" on the table, but her eyes were erratic, secretly looking at the front left.
Surprisingly, the senior librarian seemed to have a relationship with the duchess's son.
Dark Demon, who always walked directly past the counter before, would now stay in front of the counter for a minute or two.
Emma had heard many rumors about the Pandora Doragon senpai.
She didn't deliberately inquire about it; just by sitting in the common room of Knight House, she would often hear rumors related to her.
When they talked about this senior sister, they always spoke with awe and admiration, as if they were not talking about a person of the same age, but… mhm, a goddess?
Ptui!
Will a goddess cling to a boy so shamelessly like this?
Emma snorted.
...
Dark looked at the invitation letter handed by Pandora-senpai herself, wondering where the cover of this invitation was bought?
Mhm, but senpai's fingers are really tender, and her nails are really narrow and long. It's like she can easily tickle deep in people's hearts.
"Do you want it?"
Pandora leaned down, her tight school uniform bulging against her chest was a test for people's hearts, and the breath in her mouth drifted over with a sweet fragrance.
Dark pushed back the invitation letter without a moment of hesitation.
"Sorry, I have..."
"So quick?"
Pandora took the invitation letter back. In fact, it was actually a blank piece of paper inside.
But her eyebrows were slightly drooping; she made a fake trace of loss. Her slender fingers secretly pointed towards Emma who was behind, and her upper body continued to lean forward as she whispered into Dark’s ear, "Is it her?"
Dark frowned. This was the second time Pandora-senpai had paired him with Emma.
Was this the feelings that they gave to other people?
Pandora had a keen mind. Her eyes lit up as she said, "Even if you have a partner, you can still change it~"
Dark said helplessly, "The theme of Halloween is not a dance party."
Pandora: "Then how about Christmas?"
Dark: "Huh?"
...
In fact, Pandora just wanted to ease her stressed mood by teasing the junior student. She left the library shortly after that.
Different from the "easiness" of the students of the lower years, the students of the higher years were actually under a lot of pressure. This was especially true for the top students.
Schoolwork and competition were indispensable.
Especially since she also had to take care of her work as a librarian, she must manage her time better than the students in the same year.
Ms. Béla had repeatedly suggested that she be relieved of this responsibility, but she always refused it resolutely.
During the first year, it was the work of the librarian that had saved her lost soul.
...
We shouldn’t forget where we came from.
Walking on the road, Pandora couldn’t help thinking of the cute junior student again.
"Mhm, that kind of stubborn feeling is also very good."
...
Dark Demon was distressed.
He was forced to make an agreement for the Christmas dance party - albeit unilaterally.
Though he didn't care who his Christmas partner would be, but the way it was decided, he felt like he had lost.
Thinking about it, he suddenly realized: "Is this just the bitterness and melancholy of adolescence?"
Dark quickly got rid of this random thought.
Today is October 29th.
The night after tomorrow will be the eve of Halloween.
...
"The day after tomorrow is the masquerade party!"
In the corner of the reading room.
White almost broke his pen!
In order to make the magic card for the masquerade, he and Robert had been studying here for an entire afternoon, but it was still a mess.
The more complex the magic card was, the more accurate the requirements for various data should be, and the fewer information they could find in the book.
If he wanted to make his own magic cards, he needed to learn to calculate.
Calculation, and arithmetic!
Before starting to learn Magical Language in the second year, the arithmetic class was the biggest nightmare of the little magisters!
White's patience was actually pretty good, but it was still gradually losing in the accumulation of numbers.
Just when the irritability filled 90% of his brain, he saw the moon in the depths of his heart.
From one of the entrances of the reading room, she walked into his white moonlight.
Having a crush is a very strange emotion. If you lock it in your own world, as long as you don't reveal it, it will get bigger and bigger...
White once was encouraged by Robert to use [Forbidden Love] to check Pandora-senpai's favorability towards him.
But that day, Pandora happened to be absent.
So he no longer had this courage anymore.
→As long as you don't open your eyes, you won't wake up from your dreams.
He basically knew that he and the senpai were two people on two parallel lines.
Of course, in his subconscious, that was just the status quo.
In the future, it will be different.
This masquerade is an opportunity.
If I can become the champion of the first year, I will be able to attract Pandora-senpai’s attention more or less.
When that happened, White believed that he would be more confident.
Maybe he would be able to invite her to dance at the Christmas dance party.
→Christmas ball is the real dance party. Halloween masquerade is nothing!
He didn't change his mind until he noticed from a distance that Pandora-senpai had handed Dark an invitation letter.
Fortunately, Dark didn't seem to accept it.
But is this really luck?
Dark didn't accept it, only because he already had a partner.
Otherwise, who would refuse the invitation of Pandora-senpai?
Also, when did Dark and Pandora-senpai get so close?
"Crack!"
The pen was finally broken.
"I will win."
...
The night sky of Saint Marian was still clear, like a dark mirror, reflecting the hearts of people, but not allowing them to see through.
New week.
During the classes on Monday, the students’ minds were clearly not in the class. The professors felt it was difficult to teach.
There were no classes on Tuesday and Wednesday.
But on Tuesday after 12 noon, all students were required to return to the dormitory tower, and they were not able to get out of the tower until 6 o'clock in the evening.
This is the beginning of the masquerade party!
There was no opening ceremony.
But the ghosts all over the castle were the best opening ceremony!
Ghosts, zombies, mummies, jack pumpkins...
When the bell rang at six o'clock, it was the time when the ghosts and demons showed up!
The huge castle became the stage of the students, but also the stage of the sprites!
Thousands of students put on their costumes
The princesses blended into the crowd wearing masks.
Demons and ghosts danced wildly in chaos.
Staring at the ancient castle, the lone moon.
The fog and the truth will always appear on the same chessboard at the same time.
Who can find their own truth at the party?
Who can dig out the final truth in the chaos?
Who can catch the coveted thing in the carnival?
Play with the Hero!
Play with the Princess!
Play with the Demon God!
...
Let's play together!
