Chapter 263 Dark Demon Disclaimer (2 in 1)

This was also something that couldn't be helped.

After all, human memory always worked in a strange way.

Sometimes when people thought they remembered it, but when they tried to recall it, there were always only one or two words that they couldn't remember.

Seeing that the students were whining noisily, Medea couldn't help showing a mischievous smile.

Then she raised her wand and tapped the air lightly, a pumpkin carriage instantly appeared out of thin air and quickly expanded on the podium.

She stepped on the carriage, waved to the students, and said, "See you next week."

The two beast shadows pulling the carriage ran forward a few steps, suddenly lifted up, and then galloped out of the class from the ceiling, quickly disappearing into the dark night sky.

The end-of-class bell rang, making the students realize that it was all over.

Professor Medea did not leave them any notes about the predictions she made on the blackboard.

"It's over!" The students who didn't quite remember their "predictions" couldn't help wailing sorrowfully.

And those who remembered clearly couldn't help but show a smirk secretly.

Seeing Dianna's smirk, Rose asked in a low voice, "Nana, you didn’t forget?" 

Dianna said proudly: "Of course. My name will be engraved on the hero stele! Right?"

"It's the Heroic Spirit Stele."

Dark in the back row corrected helplessly, then packed up his pen and paper and stood up. "It's time to go."

...

Looking down from the top of the Spiral Clock Tower, one could see the entire huge castle stand quietly in the darkness.

Either feeling joy or sorrow, students slowly descended from the 12th floor along the spiral downward stairs after finishing the class, gradually becoming smaller.

Professor Medea's pumpkin carriage was now completely integrated into the darkness. She stuck her head out of the car window, opened her eyes to observe the students who looked like black dots on the spiral staircase, and suddenly asked, "Did you see it?"

"Yes." The voice from the void carried a trace of undisguised joy.

...

The night was getting darker.

With the Spiral Clock Tower as the center, the students were divided into four thin flows of people, scattered in four directions.

Dark parted from Dianna and Rose at the entrance of the corridor and returned to the dormitory.

After entering the dormitory, he first summoned little Eevee, then loosed his collar and exhaled a sigh.

"Don't worry, and don't hesitate, embrace all the stars, and embrace all."

"How should I interpret this sentence?”

Dark didn't know that Professor Medea had mistaken him for the "Child of the Stars", so he could only follow his own way to interpret the sentence. So far, he was very positive about the connections between the deadly sins and stars. If he needed to embrace the stars, it meant he needed to embrace deadly sins. 

So does it mean that after thoroughly studying deadly sins, he would be able to live an ideal life? Or does it mean something else?

Emm…

Actually, there isn’t much difference.

Dark smiled helplessly.

Professor Medea was known as "The Guide of Destiny", "the Star-eyed Fortune-teller", and "the Witch of the Silver Moon". Judging by her titles alone, she was most likely the owner of the Eye of Stars as well, and the reason why she mentioned "stars" should also be because she could see the trajectories of those stars that ordinary people couldn't see, which was just like Eudora. 

So in the end, Dark changed his mind and decided to interpret it from her perspective and completed his homework by writing something about stars.

...

It didn't take long for Dark to finish his homework, and then he began to extract today's [Greed].

Today was Wednesday, the tenth day of January.

After today, the quota for this month would be used up, and the total amount of [Greed] stored was 3 points in the end.

After Dark injected [Greed] into the Worm Tree, he prepared to take a shower, and then practice [spiritual concentration art] for half an hour before going to bed.

In this world, If he could get enough sleep every day, it would be more than he could hope for.

Whereas embrace stars and embrace all... 

He’d rather embrace cat grasses.

...

When Dark came out of the bathroom in damp blond hair, there was a sudden knock on the door. He buttoned his bathrobe and glanced at DemiDevimon. 

DemiDevimon obediently flew to the door and turned the door handle with its claws.

As the bedroom door clicked open, DemiDevimon saw Rose's slightly helpless face.

Just as DemiDevimon was about to report what it saw, it suddenly remembered that it was not allowed to speak in front of other people, so it could only stay silent.

"Is Dark in?" Rose asked in a low voice. 

"Yes." Dark came over while drying his hair with a thick towel.

Rose's cheeks flushed red at the sight of Dark’s fair and tender skin. She stepped aside a little, revealing half of the figure of another person, and then said, "Anita wants me to ask you if you happened to note down the prediction about her."

Dark glanced at the classmate named "Anita", then understood the situation roughly.

Most likely this classmate really couldn't remember the prediction about her, so she tried to ask Rose who was sitting behind her.

Rose was a kind girl and she knew that Dark had notes, so she came to Dark for help.

"I do have a record of the predictions. Please wait here for a moment."

Dark nodded and then returned to his desk. He copied the prediction about Anita on a piece of paper and then went back to the door again.

If Rose came alone, he would probably invite her in for a drink.

But since there was another girl, he gave up the idea.

"Anita?"

"Ah!" Anita was jolted awake. She quickly took the note, and said happily, "Thank you very much!"

She actually fell into a daze accidentally by gawking at Dark just now.

It turns out that Dark's skin is so good!

Gulp~

...

Rose on the side said helplessly: "I'm sorry to trouble you so late."

Dark smiled: "It’s nothing. good night then." 

"Good night." Rose waved her hand and showed a sweet smile, then she left with Anita.

Dark shook his head and locked the door. He went back to his desk again, and while waiting for his hair to dry, he started to copy the predictions about all the students of Noble House.

Among them, the "predictions" about himself, Dianna, and Rose were separated out.

In the process of copying, he suddenly noticed that these predictions were not completely meaningless.

At first glance, they actually did feel like real predictions.

"So even the casual remarks of a true fortune-teller also contains some profound mysteries?"

In the end, Dark noticed the prediction about Robert again.

Because that prediction was very ominous.

"Thy fate is the fate of a pawn. Death shall come as the pawn perishes."

Of all these predictions, only this one referred directly to death.

Before, he thought this sentence was nonsense because everyone would eventually die one day.

But the more he looked at it now, the more he felt that it seemed to contain other messages. 

...

Just when Dark was trying to figure out what kind of message it was, the knock on the door sounded again.

Dark picked up the paper that recorded the predictions about all the first-year students of Noble House and opened the door again.

Sure enough, it was Anita who came to the door with two other classmates.

So he showed them the paper, stuck it on the door, and said with a smile: "It's all here, you can read it yourself if you need it."

The two classmates were overjoyed: "Fortunately we have Dark."

"Then I'm going to bed first." Dark locked the door again and took the time to start practicing [spiritual concentration art].

During the half-hour of practice, students passed by his dormitory door from time to time, but none of them disturbed him.

The night then passed quietly like this.

The next day.

Thursday.

The first class in the morning was an arithmetic class.

Dark could roughly guess that Professor Lily would mostly teach "equations" in this class.

The basic equations themselves were not difficult and could be very useful for simplifying some calculations.

But for beginners, any new knowledge was not so easy to master, so Dark hoped Professor Lily could make it a little easier for other students to understand.

However, what he did not expect was that he still underestimated how low Professor Lily could get!

Flapping her dragonfly wings, this little fairy entered the classroom right after the bell rang.

The first-year students immediately raised their heads like little lambs waiting to be fed, and looked at the math professor with eyes eager to learn new knowledge (Really).

"Today we are going to learn a new knowledge." Professor Lily waved her magic energy pen with a smug smile.

When the students entered a state of concentration because of this, she suddenly reached out and pointed to Dark. "Next, we will invite our substitute professor, Dark Demon, to come to the podium to explain!"

...

Although the students felt very sudden, it was not the first time for Dark to be a substitute professor, so most of them simply clapped their hands to welcome Dark.

But while applauding, almost everyone couldn't help but look at the blond boy sitting in the corner of the back row of the classroom.

What was the reason that caused a professor to shamelessly ask a student to teach the class instead of herself?

Is it the decline of morality, or the distortion of humanity?

What's wrong with the professors of Saint Marian Academy?

Dark's expression froze as he endured a series of concentrated gazes.

He had to put down the "Complete Solution of Field Spell Card Elements" in his hand.

Originally, he planned to use the time of this class to study [Zoo] related knowledge, but now it seemed to be impossible.

"Professor Lily." Dark stood up frowning.

This time, he did not follow Professor Lily's instructions.

Instead, he said directly; "I don't think it's good to loaf on the job."

Professor Lily covered her mouth all of a sudden, her lovely eyes widened as she said in astonishment, "What do you mean by loaf on the job? I'm the most diligent fairy in Saint Marian! ”

→ But there was only one fairy left in Saint Marian now!

Dark understood in seconds, and three invisible black lines immediately appeared on his forehead.

But thinking of the night spent with Professor Lily, he couldn't help softening his attitude a little.

But it was still too much for Professor Lily to find someone to teach the class instead of her directly in front of the students when she was free.

And she didn't give him any advance notice, nor did she give him any time to prepare the lesson.

If he continued to let her take advantage of him, who knew what would she do in the future?

At that time, this arithmetic class would probably be renamed "Dark Demon's Arithmetic Lecture".

Therefore, this kind of behavior must not be tolerated.

Dark said on the spot: "Professor, I'm just a student. It's okay to help occasionally..."

Professor Lily interrupted immediately: "I'm very confident that your talent in the field of arithmetic is enough to be a professor. Maybe I should give Arte a recommendation letter to make you an official teaching assistant... eh, what a great idea!"

Dark: "Professor Lily!"

Professor Lily: "Yes!"

Dark: "You need to work hard!"

Professor Lily: "Oh… But I don't understand it…"

Dark: "Please work harder!"

Professor Lily: "...Okay..."

Professor Lily seemed to finally understand Dark's good intentions. No longer talking back, she turned around and flew back to the podium with drooping wings.

Dark nodded in satisfaction and sat down again.

But he didn't notice that the students in the entire classroom were dumbfounded after witnessing the whole process of his communication with Professor Lily.

"Who is the professor and who is the student?"

It was obvious that Professor Lily was the older one, but why did Dark Demon look more like a teacher?

"No, wait." Emma in the first row suddenly found the most important detail! "Did the professor just say that Dark Demon's talent in the field of arithmetic is enough to be a professor?"

Susan and Lucy, who were sitting beside her, nodded their heads vigorously. They also heard it.

The arithmetic class was obviously so difficult, and they had a hard time mastering the content of the class. But among the classmates, there were some people who had received such a high evaluation.

This sense of disparity was really unpleasant.

...

White couldn't help asking Robert, "Is the gap really that big?"

Robert opened his mouth in shock and only said after a while of silence, "Let's see what Professor Lily is going to teach in this class first. Maybe it also isn’t that difficult?"

White swallowed his saliva and turned his pen subconsciously: "Mhm, let’s see it first."

...

In the whispers of the students, Professor Lily drew a big "x" on the blackboard.

"What we're going to teach today is the application of variable X..."

As she spoke faster and faster, the classroom was dead silent.

What is "variable"?

What is an "equation"?

Professor Lily gave a complete definition of these two concepts in her own words.

In her view, both concepts were very simple.

Once one understood the definition, one would be able to apply it directly.

But in order for the students to understand better, she followed Dark's explanation and gave an application problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage, which directly jumped from the linear equation in one variable to the linear equation in two variables (ˉ﹃ˉ).

...

The smart Emma ​​naturally would not be troubled by problems of this level.

But the dumb Dianna couldn’t understand anything at all, all the teaching became noises after it got into her ears.

She blinked her eyes in confusion and stared at the blackboard, mechanically taking notes.

And Rose by her side was no better.

When people came into contact with new knowledge, they would always need a transition period, and cramming education would only have a negative effect.

Rose felt a pain in her head, but like Dianna, she took notes seriously.

No matter what, she had to note it down first.

This was the secret of learning that Dark taught them.

...

The sound of pens falling on the table after failing to turn appeared from time to time.

Professor Lily's voice was like a lullaby, hypnotizing the nerves of the little magisters.

When she wrote a new word problem on the blackboard and was about to ask someone to answer it, the lullaby suddenly turned into a frightening song, waking everyone up!
