Chapter 876: 69. This day will eventually co
Lu Li almost couldn’t return to Klein Manifested University.
After the news that “Yenada Mathews is just a fraudulent imposter” caused a huge uproar, people’s attention returned to Lu Li.
The crowd gathered in front of the main gate was large, and even the back door was blocked.
Only a few people knew about the substitute plan, while others knew fragnts of the information and considered themselves grasping the truth: they thought the fake Yenada Mathews wanted to sar Lu Li but failed, instead exposing his own identity.
In short, the na of Yenada Mathews, the missing elder of Midnight City, continued to circulate, but only with regret and sorrow.
The Knights Order, who arrived later, helped resolve the issue, and they would be responsible for Lu Li’s safety until he left Midnight City.
Dean Lawrence warmly welcod Lu Li, his enthusiasm almost like that of an old servant.
After returning to his room, Puxiu quietly told Lu Li the truth: while Lu Li was slandered, he was almost expelled by Dean Lawrence and so scoundrels, but Professor Nuno Alexandrovich stopped them.
Although Puxiu was not in danger, he was left in the room for two days without food or water. It was not until Lu Li returned recently that Dean Lawrence released Puxiu, prepared a sumptuous lunch, and asked if Puxiu had any wishes in exchange for not revealing anything to Lu Li.
However, this creature, clearly no longer human, unlike many of its kind, was not unscrupulous, greedy, or faithless—he possessed excellent virtues that many others lacked, such as honesty.
“What about Miss Katerina?” Puxiu asked again.
“She got what she wanted and will no longer travel with ,” Lu Li replied, watching as Puxiu’s tail drooped in disappointnt, “If you want to stay, I will find a way.”
Puxiu wagged his tail as if hesitating but eventually shook his head: “I want to follow Your Excellency Lulian, maybe if you beco a legend again, I’ll also appear in the legends!”
Lu Li poured cold water on Puxiu’s optimism: “Legends are called legends because of their uniqueness.”
Ants biting humans is just an accident, and they are more likely to be casually crushed to death.
The evidence is that in the twenty-four years of the Weird Tis, no new legendary stories belonging to individuals have appeared.
Puxiu was still hesitant to follow Lu Li, and Lu Li said no more as he would leave the day after tomorrow, giving Puxiu enough ti to consider the matter.
Lu Li called for Dean Lawrence to ask where Professor Nuno Alexandrovich was.
Dean Lawrence appeared nervous, seemingly worried about getting exposed: “Nuno is at the hospital…”
“Is it related to you?” Lu Li frowned.
“No… of course not… it’s his curse, his curse has beco very severe, maybe…” Dean Lawrence swallowed the last part of his sentence.
“Take to see him.”
Accompanied by Dean Lawrence, Lu Li went to the hospital to visit Professor Nuno Alexandrovich.
Dean Lawrence delayed for a while before boarding the carriage, and when they arrived at the hospital with the accompanying Knights Order, Lu Li knew what Dean Lawrence had done during his disappearance.
A large number of people and reporters gathered in front of the hospital.
Dean Lawrence did not hide his utilitarianism and urgency towards Lu Li.
But Lu Li sensed despair among it.
He managed an academy with only a dozen students.
It was almost defunct, and if it weren’t for its existence as a guise for the giant tree, it should have vanished long ago.
It’s hard to bla an elderly person who uses any ans just to pass down knowledge.
Many people shouted Lu Li’s na and title aloud, so even knelt down, almost deifying Lu Li.
Unfortunately, this deity would not answer the believers’ prayers.
Protected by the Knights, Lu Li entered the hospital. In the curiosity of hospital staff and patients, he arrived outside Professor Nuno Alexandrovich’s ward.
Professor Caesar was in the corridor, gazing at the chaos on the street.
“You shouldn’t have co here,” Professor Caesar said, but it sounded more like he was reprimanding Dean Lawrence’s actions.
“He can’t hold on much longer, and it’s already impossible for him to wake up,” Professor Caesar said. “You ca at the wrong ti; the doctor is treating him inside.”
It seed that Lu Li wouldn’t get the chance to see Professor Nuno in his final monts.
“If he wakes up, tell him His Excellency Lu Li ca by,” Dean Lawrence instructed, hastily chasing after Lu Li under Professor Caesar’s disdainful gaze.
The carriage moved slowly, the noise gradually fading away, leaving only the sound of surrounding hooves, and Lu Li suddenly said calmly, “Prepare a lesson for this afternoon, the only one.”
“What? But… wouldn’t that be too rushed…” Dean Lawrence was astonished; he hadn’t arranged it yet.
“Tomorrow, I’ll visit the giant tree, and the day after tomorrow, I’ll leave.”
“Then, two in the afternoon…” Dean Lawrence replied through gritted teeth, having just about enough ti to prepare in three hours.
“Have you decided what to teach?”
“Yes.”
Lu Li no longer cared about what Dean Lawrence did afterward. As the clock approached two in the afternoon, Professor Daisy Schmitz knocked on the door, and Lu Li followed him to the classroom on the ground floor.
Professor Daisy Schmitz stopped, seeing Lu Li walk into the packed classroom.
Lu Li surveyed the dozens of figures in the room; among them were nobles, journalists, and heretics, with only one student from Phantom University.
Outside the window, the giant tree stood on the earth, its mist-like light penetrating the tranquil classroom.
Lu Li began to speak calmly.
“Strictly speaking, this is not a lesson. It’s rely a story, the story of the origin and decline of the Exorcist.”
Lu Li slowly began to narrate the story of the Exorcists.
The Exorcist Association had split into three major organizations in modern tis, only to reunite under the increasing number of anomalies and sacrifices, forming the story of the Exorcist.
“I’m not sure what happened during the ti they were trapped underground, but I know they never abandoned their steadfast beliefs and virtues,” Lu Li’s calm voice flowed through the classroom.
“The evidence is that there are no more Exorcists now. They have all perished.”
After a brief pause, Lu Li looked at the “students.”
“You may ask questions now.”
The sole student stood first and asked, “Is what we learn at Phantom University aningful?”
“I haven’t been to the giant tree, so I can’t give you an opinion,” Lu Li said, looking at the young person. “But there is no useless knowledge; it only depends on when it cos into play.”
“Your Excellency Lu Li, will you join the City Hall faction or the noble faction?” a man holding notes and a pen stood up.
Lu Li ignored him.
Another young noble stood up, his emotions stirred by Lu Li’s calm narration, “Mr. Lu Li, will you restore the glory of the Exorcist and reestablish the Exorcist organization?”
Lu Li’s dark eyes slightly lowered.
“Perhaps one day.”
After finding Anna.
