Chapter 47 Dark Demon's Learning Secret

ED- Jue

After the end of the duel lesson, Professor Jones invited Dark to the stage after giving out 1,000 credits for the championship.

When Dark, who hadn't fully grown up, stood next to Professor Jones, his head only reached the bottom edge of Professor Jones' basketballs.

Professor Jones, with a sixteenth giant bloodline, was simply too big.

Dark tried his best to keep a smile on his face, calmly facing the noisy classmates below the stage.

Professor Jones said, "Demon, do you mind sharing your classmates a little learning secret?"

Dark said modestly, "Of course, I don't mind."

Professor Jones said with satisfaction, "Then, I will leave the stage to you."

Dark nodded, moved a step forward, and said, "Actually, there has never been a shortcut in learning. I can win today because of self-discipline."

"People who can restrain themselves have the most prestige. But too much restraint on themselves can sometimes have counterproductive effects, so the degree of self-discipline is also very important."

"Whether it is the desire or learning, self-discipline is necessary."

"My personal preference is to allocate the right amount of time for both work and rest, using some interesting content to ease the boring study, and leaving the brain some time to rest."

"Furthermore, everyone is the architect of his own destiny..."

...

Dark spoke for about a quarter of an hour.

Some people learned something from Dark, and some just wanted it to finish quickly so that they could go back to eat.

This was just like the road of life. There were signs at the fork in the road. The left was rugged but led to the peak, and the right was smooth but led to the trough. But, most people still chose to go to the right.

These were Dark’s feelings over the past month.

Amidst the unenthusiastic applause, Dark walked off the stage and the competition ended.

Then, Friday afternoon arrived when Traveller Street opened again!

Dark drew out the sorting card to check his credits: 1570.

...

Compared to the first opening of Traveller Street, first-year students were much more restrained this week.

In short, it was definitely not because of "not enough credits"!

Fortunately, some ordinary consumer goods were actually not that expensive. Students could order a cup of coffee with a little credits and spend a relaxing and comfortable time at the forest coffee shop on Traveller Street.

...

Before heading to Traveller Street, Dark once again took out the notebook used for the excerpts.

There were a few more items in this week's list than in last week's.

These items were containers that could be used to store Thinking Substances for a long time.

[Magic Brain Bottle: One of the alchemy tools of the Magic Brain series, it stores emotions, desires, knowledge and other substances in the simulated magic brain. The advantage is that it is active so the storage time is long, but because it is active, it can cause the stored material to be contaminated and mutated! ]

[Worm Tree: a kind of potted plant with branches like worms, which can absorb emotions, desires, knowledge and other substances into the worm branches. Since the essence of the worm branches is a plant, there is no need to worry about the stored things being contaminated. The disadvantage is that if the tree is dead and the worm would also be dead, and it is difficult to cultivate. ]

[Premium Bottle of Thoughts: The premium version of Bottle of Thoughts, except that it is expensive, has no harm, and the shelf life of the Thinking Substances stored in it can be as long as one month.]

However, all these things were very expensive.

So Dark's first purpose today was to choose one of them to purchase.

...

From twelve o'clock to half past twelve, it was a peak period; people would swarm into Traveller Street.

Dark deliberately waited until 12:30 before leaving the tower of the Noble House.

On the way to the castle gate, he unexpectedly ran into White, Robert and Emma.

‘It seems they were also together on Monday?’

Dark remembered what happened on Monday and looked at them curiously.

...

Emma Mortis combed her fluffy brown hair, fixed it with a cute cat hairpin, and put some powder on her face to make her skin whiter.

She had never been dressed up to this level before so her whole appearance changed a lot.

‘Could it be that the failure of the duel match was too much for her to handle?’ Dark thought hesitatingly.

On the other side, White and Robert remained the same.

After they lost their last chance to pay off the debt, after thinking hard, they finally decided to apologize for the previous quarrel and begged Emma's forgiveness.

"I have already apologized, Emma!"

Robert stood in front of Emma again.

Emma frowned, getting a little angry, "I heard it. Now, can you move out of my way?"

White quickly grabbed Robert's arm, not knowing how the apology developed to where it was now.

Perhaps, Robert's thinking was still at the level of a child. He probably thought he could wipe off his debt if he apologized for it.

But, White had experienced a lot more, knowing that most of the time, apologizing wouldn’t solve the problem.

They were actually here to beg Emma to write off their debt!

That was a full 640 credits, and it would double to 1280 in half an hour!

If it were them, they definitely wouldn’t give up this debt easily!

Thinking of his previous rhetoric about debt repayment, White couldn't help but blush and said, "Emma, we have realized our mistakes. We shouldn’t force you to lend money to us to buy magic chess, and we also shouldn’t insult you after that... "

Emma, "You have said this before! I also accepted the apology, so can I leave now?"

"No." White plucked up the courage and said, "So, can you write off the debt? For example, change the contract and fix the credits owed at 640?"

Robert interrupted, "640 is already a lot!"

White felt so frustrated. He wished he could seal Robert’s mouth immediately!

Emma glanced at Robert with a sneer, and finally said bluntly this time, "You didn't owe me 640 credits. 5 credits, White. Give me 5 credits, and we are clear from now on!"

White's ears flicked, thinking that he had misheard, "What do you mean? How could it be 5 credits?"

Emma said, "If you have time, check the school regulations more, White! Credits are circulated as a special currency used internally by Saint Marian. It is impossible for the academy to not regulate the issue of borrowing. Credits borrowing of more than 10 times the original amount are invalid in the academy. Since one o'clock on Monday afternoon, the contract has already been regarded as invalid, and you only need to return the original amount to me."

White was stunned, "But you said before..."

Emma said angrily, "Because Robert insulted me! So why should I tell you?"

White, "Robert..."

Emma drew out the sorting card suddenly, "5 credits, White, hurry up! There is a Saint Marian tea party in the forest coffee shop this afternoon. If I’m late because of you..."

White quickly swiped his card to pay off his debts.

The burden that had been on his shoulders for a whole week had finally disappeared. White felt like his whole body was floating, he almost felt like he could fly at this moment.

After putting back her sorting card, Emma said mercilessly, "Also, White. I think it's necessary to remind you. Stop hanging out with Robert! Think about your dead parents!"
