Really? I'm fighting the Dark Emperor.

Chapter 145 The Reason for Choosing the History of Magic

An ordinary morning.

Ou Pa always felt that something was wrong with him.

That's strange, is it just psychological?

Recent driving has kept exhaustion under good control;

Lanbao has found the ingredients to make the potion, and if they're lucky, it will be back to normal soon;

Monster studies is just a small test, there's no need to worry;

……

Ugh, my neck is itchy. The itch feels like it's crawling out from between my bones, and no matter how much I scratch the surface of my skin, I can't stop it.

I was bitten by some unknown species of mosquito.

Never mind, I can totally tolerate this discomfort.

He hurried to class; being late wouldn't be good.

After walking into the classroom, the itching on my neck suddenly intensified. I frowned and scratched it a few times, but it didn't help at all.

strangeness……

The classroom was bustling with activity early in the morning. Rui Busi was yawning as she pushed open the door when she opened her eyes to Piao A Piao, who had appeared there at some unknown time.

She looked extremely excited; her already large eyes widened, sparkling as if she had won a huge lottery prize.

Fortunately, Piao Piao didn't have the bad habit of keeping people in suspense, and a cheerful breeze swept around her as she spoke: "Oppa is the tenth star!!!"

The main character in the classroom was now awkwardly half-covering the totem. The itching from the totem disappeared after its existence was known to others, but in its place, Ou Pa felt uncomfortable under everyone's gaze.

"I...I don't know why this happened."

"Hmph!" Gui Gongzai, who had been dissatisfied for a long time, slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "You clearly said that you didn't want to become one of the Ten Stars!"

"I really do..."

He really never thought he would become one of the Ten Stars!

This totem appeared on him inexplicably.

"Enough!" Gui Gongzai, who had been deeply deceived, didn't want to hear any more excuses. He made a gesture of cutting off all ties, "I'm breaking off all ties with you!"

"Eh, I..."

After letting out a second cold snort, Piao Piao stormed out of the room, completely unaware that someone else was unhappy. She excitedly spun around on the spot and announced the good news to every student who had just arrived at the classroom: Ou Pa was the star of the ten.

Unable to stop Gui Gongzai, Ou Pa turned around helplessly and happened to meet the eyes of Steroid, who was about to eat breakfast.

Just as he was about to open his mouth wide and enjoy the bliss of his mouth being filled with food, Steroid blinked and postponed his own happiness a little: "It's okay, he'll figure it out."

"It's okay if he doesn't understand," Piao Piao said, coming closer after spinning around. "Oh my, we'll always be best friends!"

He blinked, extended his finger, and made it clear that he wanted to make a pinky promise.

With his mind in turmoil, Ou Pa glanced at the little finger that was twitching at him twice, and still stretched out his hand to pinky swear with Piao A Piao.

It seems that something always makes things lively every morning. Compared to watching so-and-so argue with so-and-so, the sudden appearance of a cute knight is obviously more exciting.

The initial excitement vanished completely during Potions class, and Ruibusi had never envied the cute knight as much as she did now.

She was yawning in her seat. Several seats in the classroom were empty, but hers wasn't among them.

After realizing why many students were missing, Victoria, who was on the podium, didn't even call on anyone.

Despite Elder Situ's repeated assurances, the elders, for reasons unknown, chose to trust Victoria. Aside from the limited range of movement and the need to constantly wear the magical restraint ring, Victoria's teaching methods remained largely unchanged.

—It's also possible that Professor Qian Jin was away on vacation, and the school couldn't find another Potions teacher to replace him. After Victoria was allowed to teach, it was found that the students didn't seem to have any resistance, so things continued as they were.

Rui Bu Si felt a pang of regret.

I should have slipped away during the chaos; after all, Ms. Victoria might not remember all the students in this class.

Life is all about gambling on probabilities.

"Rui Busi, could you please read your lab report?"

Oh wow.

She slowly stood up, lowered her head, and pretended to be very embarrassed: "I forgot to bring it."

It's all about probability; it's normal for unexpected things to happen and you not to win.

"Did you really forget to bring it?"

“Really.” She swore on the credibility of her former boss.

"Alright, please sit down."

Victoria seemed to believe it.

Huh? I didn't expect her former boss to still have credibility to ask her to swear an oath.

"Did any of you remember to bring yours?"

There was silence below.

Even if such a person did exist, stepping forward at this time would undoubtedly mean reciting their own academic nonsense.

“Then remember to hand it in to the office before the next Potions class,” he paused, then added, “You can hand it in to me or Headmaster Parr.”

Today's schedule is very full.

The History of Magic class followed Potions class, and for some reason, Aluetta was clearly not in the right frame of mind for the entire class.

Coincidentally, the audience below the stage were not very focused because they had a monster studies exam in the afternoon.

As class was about to end, Alueta glanced at the time of the final exams, recalling how Sweetie had pulled her aside before class to tell her about her grievances on Friends' Day, and how much had happened recently, and how many ups and downs her relationship with her dear Principal Pa had gone through...

Even just thinking about it sends a chill down her spine. Grabbing her new thermos this semester, she's already thinking about how to decline the offer of a teaching position next semester.

After class, Alueta sat in the classroom for a while until there were almost no people left. She rubbed her sleepy eyes.

She had heard a little about what happened at the Moe Academy, so it was normal that Miya Star was nowhere to be seen at a time like this.

Or should we randomly select a classmate to pass it on?

Just as I stood up, I saw Mi Yaxing rushing into the classroom.

After he caught his breath and calmed down, she handed him the book: "The answer you are looking for is in this book."

Not quite understanding why he couldn't be told the result directly, Mi Yaxing accepted the gift with a puzzled look: "Thank you, teacher."

"Oh right, I seem to have forgotten to tell you that there's an improved version of that gold coin magic, which I've already given to Ruibusi."

He nodded: "Ribsi mentioned this to me; she really likes that magic."

She paused for a moment, then asked cautiously, "Teacher Alueta, there's a question that has been bothering me for a long time."

"Hmm?" She had been about to leave, but pulled out a chair and sat down again, indicating that he could ask.

Why did you choose to teach the history of magic?

An unexpected question, yet one that Zhizhixing raised was entirely reasonable.

Alueta could sense that he had been curious for a long time.

"I've been asked this question before."

After all, he was once known as a genius in monster studies during his student days.

He did not choose to continue his research in monster studies, but instead chose the history of magic. In the eyes of most people, this was undoubtedly a decision that abandoned the light for the dark and was incomprehensible.

—Compared to burying oneself in historical research, conducting research on monster studies is obviously more meaningful.

“My dear student Miya Xing, I also have a question for you. Do you think what the Cute Knights and Princess Naya, that is, you two, are doing is meaningful?”

There was neither evasion nor direct confrontation.

"Of course!" he gave a very affirmative answer.

Everything they've done has been in order to defeat the Dark Lord and restore peace to the universe.

Alueta chuckled softly: "One day it will also become history in the eyes of others."

"That's why I chose the history of magic."

“Miya Star,” she said, looking at the student who had been thinking and quickly figured it out, trying to make her words sound less didactic, “you are the Wisdom Star of the Cute Knights. I think no teacher who has taught you would doubt your intelligence.”

“But often, life throws problems at us that we can’t solve with human intelligence.” She bent her index finger and pushed her glasses up, then stood up. “This book is for you.”
