Ten thirty.
When Miseria ca downstairs, her steps were trembling.
"Damn it, why are my legs and waist shaking uncontrollably?"
Miseria recalled last night’s disarrayed dress and felt a bit embarrassed all at once.
Who would have thought the situation would be so intense, leaving her in such a defeated position now?
She thought of the note Chloe left by her bedside, pondered for a mont, then headed towards Amber Hall first.
Today, the Extre Association and Fantasy Association are going into the Maze.
She knew he had to first go back to the Fantasy Association to handle so matters before he could find the ti to co to her.
So she went straight to Amber Hall.
After making a round at Amber Hall, she didn’t hear any mbers of the Extre Association ntion that Chloe had returned.
The others didn’t find it strange that she was looking for Chloe either.
After all, the vice president of the Fantasy Association had joined the Extre Association.
So well-inford people, like Fat Daniel, even knew Miseria was helping Chloe with so external affairs of the Extre Association.
"But doesn’t anyone feel that Senior Miseria looks radiant today?"
"Isn’t it rather she looks unwell? She seems to have been frowning all day."
"Wait, could it be..."
Miseria turned to glare fiercely at the whispering juniors and said:
"I haven’t left yet!"
The few were startled, then chuckled and scattered away.
Miseria sighed and ca to the entrance of Amber Hall.
"Has he not returned yet?"
Just then.
In the noon sunlight, she vaguely saw a familiar figure.
Miseria’s eyes lit up.
[He’s finally back]
Rembering the embarrassing scenes from yesterday until today, she instinctively turned her head.
Chloe quickly approached.
Stopping at the entrance.
"Oh, Senior, you’re up so early?"
"Uh-huh, I usually have light sleep. Yesterday, was I not too botherso?"
Miseria tried hard to speak in her usual tone.
But as soon as she spoke, it sounded a bit more coquettish.
She secretly fretted.
[Miseria, how can you be so nervous?]
Seeing Miseria’s shy appearance, Chloe felt it was truly rare and precious.
"Nothing of the sort, rather I should apologize, after all, you..."
"Apologize for what?"
Imrsed in the small joy, she was montarily stunned, not reacting.
Chloe lowered his voice and said:
"Do you really not need to help treat you?"
"...What are you doing?"
Miseria snorted lightly and said nothing more.
[Ah, what should I say to him at a ti like this?]
[Say don’t mind? No, I don’t want that!]
[What to do, I really want to talk to him but it’s so awkward...]
"So awkward...haha."
"Hmm?"
Miseria’s face turned even redder.
Unexpectedly, she just voiced her inner thoughts.
Seeing Chloe tilting his head looking at her, Miseria couldn’t help but lower her voice and say:
"What are you looking at, what are you thinking about?"
"Uh, I’m not thinking about anything." Chloe instinctively diverted his gaze, whispering, "I was thinking about what attitude I should have facing you, since you seem really uneasy."
Miseria’s hands had nowhere to rest for a mont.
Previously, Chloe always directly called her senior.
But now he was calling her by na in public.
"Don’t like it?" Chloe hesitated a bit, "I thought yesterday you really liked when I called you by na."
"No, no, no, no..."
"Don’t like it?"
"It’s fine!"
Chloe burst into laughter.
Internally, Miseria constantly felt like a groundhog screaming, trying hard to control her embarrassnt and said:
"I’m totally not uncomfortable at all, call by my na directly, that’s fine too."
"That’s great." Chloe took a breath and said, "I was originally thinking of finishing so work here at Amber Hall then finding you for lunch, now it simplifies things."
Miseria suddenly rembered sothing.
Silent alarm.
Last night he and she went overboard, the dress Lilith gifted seed to have been torn apart badly.
If one day Lilith rembers the dress and cos to check it, what should she say then...
It’s more than just not being able to face people simply.
[Must fix the dress imdiately after coming back from the Maze]
[Damn it, why did I have to exert myself so much last night!]
"Let’s go, we should head inside." Chloe reminded.
Miseria nodded, her gaze looking forward.
Suddenly, she said:
"I won’t pretend that thing didn’t happen."
Chloe was a bit surprised.
With Miseria’s character, wanting to bring up that matter must have been lingering in her heart for a long ti.
So he chuckled softly and said:
"Yes, what’s already happened, can’t be ignored."
Where he couldn’t see.
Miseria’s mouth subtly rose.
The previous worries were also suppressed, her voice gradually returned to its usual cheerfulness.
"I’m glad you rember."
"Haha, I have a bit of confidence in my mory."
And Miseria...
After she finished these few sentences, she stopped speaking.
Her mind was now filled with countless fragnted Miserias screaming wildly.
With her brain blank, she could barely use weak rationality to repeatedly say one thing.
[Let’s end today’s conversation here, speak one more sentence and I’ll explode with tension]
As the two walked forward, they suddenly saw Lilith rushing out from Amber Hall.
"Huh? The president is here so early?"
...
Ti rewinds to an hour ago.
April, who was playing the role of Professor Lan, arrived at the Fantasy Association.
[This Fantasy Association is truly deserving of direct funding from the headquarters, it’s really wealthy]
[But can soone tell where my lovely student Lilith has gone?]
"Is it the retribution of being a bad woman?"
"Why is no one here at the Fantasy Association today?"
"Everyone, it’s not funny to ostracize the teacher, please don’t do this."
At this mont, a senior student happened to walk by.
"Huh? Professor Lan, why are you here at the association?"
"Ah, I wanted to find Lilith for sothing. When do they usually co by?"
"Ah? The president and the others won’t be coming back these days." The student said, slapping his forehead, "The president must have been so busy that he forgot to inform you, today all the key mbers of the Fantasy Association have gone to the Extre Association."
"Hmm?"
"They are starting a new round of Maze hunting, both associations are now working together."
"Alright, then I will go to the Extre Association to find them." April thought for a mont and said, "Is the Extre Association at Amber Hall?"
"Yes, it used to be the base of the Mad Lion Association."
"Oh?"
April showed a subtle smile.
She vaguely rembered the Mad Lion Association cooperating with the Ethereal Emblem to launch a raiding operation against the Void Erosion Sect.
That operation caused quite a few losses among the local backbone of the Void Erosion Sect.
Just didn’t expect, after a few months, the Mad Lion Association actually sold their assets here.
She pondered:
"Looks like that old lion suffered so injuries."
...
Half an hour ago.
In the Amber Hall lobby, April dialed Lilith’s phone:
"Hello, Lilith, I’m now in the Extre Association at Amber Hall’s lobby, when will you arrive?"
"Ha?"
Lilith’s helpless voice ca from the other end of the phone:
"Professor, didn’t I have Magic Cat send you a ssage?"
"Huh? I must have been in such a hurry that I didn’t notice Magic Cat arriving then."
"Please wait a mont."
Soon enough.
The originally off-campus Lilith, who was counting Fantasy Night materials at Mayer Trading Company, hurried over.
As she entered the lobby, she saw Professor Lan sitting upright on the sofa.
Her cheeks couldn’t help but redden a bit.
It was nothing more.
Mainly because the seat Professor Lan was sitting on was the sofa at the bar counter of Amber Hall.
On a certain day, Lilith had previously fought a long, enduring battle here with Chloe, sweating all around.
Later on, Chloe even quietly replaced the sofa here.
In so ways, a certain person’s possessiveness was indeed strong enough.
Thinking of this, Lilith’s eyes turned a bit misty.
Fortunately, she ran over quickly, her cheeks were already sowhat red, so she didn’t have to worry about the professor noticing anything.
"Professor Lan, good day."
"Haha, no need to be so polite, today’s Lilith is also very pretty."
"Pro-professor, did you co regarding that earlier incident?"
"Yes, I went to the site to watch your Fantasy Show, the performance was truly impressive."
Upon hearing this, Lilith showed a relieved smile.
She said, "The responsible ones this ti are mbers I am proud of."
April thought to herself: [How could you not be proud? After all, you have quite a bit of ss hidden among your mbers.]
She recalled the one who easily broke her into a severe injury before.
If the others were unripe fruits yet to grow, that guy was a Fruit King already beyond normal comprehension, falling could kill, directly eating could make one explode.
Based on April’s many years of experience, there must be a catch behind such a freak.
And she very much wanted to see this catch.
——Even if it might get her stabbed and bloodied.
"Extre Association, huh, you seem closely linked with them, Fantasy Association."
"Should say, now the key mbers of Fantasy Association and Extre Association are almost the sa batch of people."
This is not a secret in Ethereal Emblem.
So believe Extre Association is Fantasy Association’s substitute.
So believe Fantasy Association has long been overthrown by Extre Association.
Only few know, the people of Extre Association have basically cleared even Fantasy Association’s backstage.
Of course.
Lilith certainly wouldn’t reveal this.
She rely acknowledged the campus rumors.
And just that made April raise an eyebrow.
"Sa group of people on both sides, that’s rare indeed."
"Haha, maybe soday Professor Lan will beco the advisor for Extre Association too?"
"Huh? I haven’t agreed to be Fantasy Association’s advisor, how did it co to involve Extre Association?"
"Haha, teacher, you ca today, didn’t you already agree to support Extre Association in the years to co?"
"That’s true."
"You don’t mind, you can talk to the core mbers of Extre Association, after all to us, there’s not much difference between the two sides."
Lilith gave a thoughtful glance at this Professor Lan.
This Professor Lan is quite famous among the teaching staff.
Promoted to Sequence Six at a young age.
Frankly speaking, in the entire Ethereal Emblem faculty, few are better than her.
She had previously discussed with Chloe about transferring Fantasy Association resources to the Extre Association.
It can be foreseen, for a long period ahead, the Fantasy Association at Ethereal Emblem would deplete rapidly.
Because the headquarters won’t provide much support anymore.
