Chapter 155 Dark Demon Revisits the Dormitory
***edited by x10***
Even though the magical spirits of White and Robert managed to attract golems’ attention, they still saw no opportunity to escape from the bridge.
They were desperate and could only hope that their magical spirits could defeat golems.
White's Troll at least had a fighting chance to take on the "heavy cavalry".
Robert's Cyborg Ratman, on the other hand, stood no chance and was slashed by the spinning attack of "light cavalry". It was cut in halves and was out of battle in a short period of time.
With the disappearance of Cyborg Ratman, Robert hurriedly summoned his [Phantom Magic Beast: Castle], but even that was shattered by the "Light Cavalry" in one strike!
"What should I do? White!" Robert screamed in horror.
But White wasn't faring much better either.
Although the three-star Troll survived until now with its physical advantages, it had taken a lot of damage.
[Forbidden Love] didn't work on golems at all.
He was helpless.
The only hope he had was...
White couldn't help but look up.
He could hear someone fighting on the third floor of the castle, and that might be a turning point!
...
Dark didn't know that he would be White’s last hope.
After he put away the card, came to the window, and glanced down, he just happened to see the "heavy cavalry" piercing the Troll, and the "paralyzing ray" fired from its forehead hitting White and Robert.
"GG," Dark observed a moment of silence for them and walked away without looking back.
The curfew was about to be over soon.
The noise due to the fight was also likely to attract more uninvited guests.
He didn't want to be punished.
...
Five o'clock sharp.
The curfew was finally over.
Dark quickly passed through the main entrance of the Noble House tower and successfully returned to the dormitory.
The battle just now made him a little tired, so he lay in bed for a while before he got up to greet a new day.
When Dark started paying attention to his surroundings, he was already sitting in the classroom of the Summoning class, waiting for Professor Silver's arrival while previewing the lecture.
The professor came five minutes late, which was very rare.
White and Robert who came with her entered the class through the back door with their heads lowered.
Their faces were very ugly.
Professor Silver mercilessly told everyone that the two had violated school rules, and publicly announced that they would be given detention until the day before Christmas.
As for the destroyed "dragon cavalry", there was no mention of it.
In the earlier interrogation, Robert argued that there was another person who also broke the school rules, but Professor Silver ignored him.
If Professor Silver really wanted to apprehend the other person, She could extract the records from the golem even if the golem was damaged, and catch the culprit. But she was deliberately turning a blind eye.
In principle, the school encouraged students to break dogma and be more adventurous. So, as long as students were not caught by golems, the professors would usually turn a blind eye.
...
It was the first Monday in December, but it actually began with such an interesting event.
The matter of the hero duo receiving detention soon became a hot topic among first-year students.
Only Friday's in-class competition and the Christmas Eve ball received more attention.
The Halloween dance party wasn’t romantic enough. Only the Christmas ball could satisfy young couples yearning for romance.
Saint Marian always had a saying that the success rate of confession at the Christmas ball was 13.1415926% higher than usual!
Although the source of this claim couldn’t be verified, it was true that more college couples were formed at Christmas than usual.
Dark believed that one of the reasons for this was related to the atmosphere of Christmas, and the other was more practical - agreeing to become someone’s dance partner meant that the person already has some good feelings for that person.
That is to say, those who became dance partners already had a solid foundation, so they would often succeed.
Of course, the collective atmosphere could also boost people’s courage, allowing people who were usually shy and timid to dare to reveal their hidden feelings.
Teenagers normally wouldn’t think much about it.
They would confess to people they liked quickly.
They would often be rejected.
And then feel depressed for a while.
...
Many people were not aware of the weight of their feelings.
...
Monday's classes ended very quickly.
After 3:30 in the afternoon, White and Robert packed their books and walked to the professor’s office.
Professor Silver meant what she said. Not only were White and Robert given detention, but they were also penalized by having their credits deducted.
The credits they had were already low and now were even lower.
"It's over now." White had a sad expression on his face as he was feeling gloomy about the future.
Robert was also very worried: "How will Professor Silver punish us?"
White: "Maybe writing an apology."
Robert: "Maybe cleaning the hallway too."
White: "As long as it's not cleaning the toilet..."
Robert: "It shouldn’t be. Professor Silver is actually quite nice. She didn't extend the detention time beyond Christmas."
White: "I think that's probably because the holidays start just before Christmas."
Robert: "...you're right."
...
Outside the classroom.
Dark watched the backs of the two gradually disappear into the distance, and quietly cheered for himself: "Is this the consequence of being caught by golems? Fortunately, I wasn't caught."
Feeling a little fortunate, he turned and walked in the other direction, which was toward the library.
Dark ate after finishing the day's homework in the library. Estimating that Claire might be in the dormitory, Dark went to visit her again.
This time Claire opened the door herself.
She still dressed very casually, and the dorm felt very warm.
→ Of course that was not because of the heating.
"Professor, good evening."
Dark walked into the dormitory room, and he saw a red-skinned pig sleeping soundly in the center of the living room.
This red-skinned pig was more than two meters tall even when it was lying on its stomach. If it stood up, it may be taller than White's Troll.
Claire had named each of her magical spirits and Dark remembered that the pig’s name was "Henry".
Even though Dark couldn’t remember all of the names of Claire’s Magical spirits, He could remember “Henry” because it was very useful in winter!
The warm air it exhaled was the perfect kind of comfortable air that was not too dry or stuffy.
In the past, Dark liked to lean on its stomach and read picture books in winter.
It was one of his rare moments when he was quiet.
...
As soon as Dark sat down on the sofa in the living room, Claire brought cookies and hot milk that had been prepared.
Dark actually wanted to drink black tea, but of course, he wouldn't say it.
He picked up a cookie and took a bite.
As expected, there was too much sugar in it.
Claire always used the excuse that people who do a lot of thinking need a lot of sugar, to cover up the fact that she liked to eat sweet stuff.
"In any case, it still tastes the same."
After another mouthful of hot milk, Dark couldn't help feeling a little warm.
Then he noticed that Claire had five books in her arms, and each of these five books was more than two fingers thick, stacking up very high.
Claire pointed to the book and said casually, "So, do you want to learn the refining method of [Zoo]?"
