Chapter 368: Dark Demon Learning the New by Reviewing the Old
There was only one day left before White Day.
During the day, Dark noticed that the students in the class had already gotten slightly restless.
Especially those who gave out chocolates on Valentine’s Day—they were all looking forward to receiving a reciprocal gift.
Even if it was Giri chocolate, as long as one received a reciprocal gift, it could pretty much show that the other party didn't hate them.
Those who had nothing to do with this were also quietly gossiping about it.
Young magisters loved and were never tired of this kind of emotional matter.
But for those who received chocolates on Valentine’s Day, White Day was actually a rather serious matter.
Especially when they had a certain degree of affection for the people who gave them gifts.
This was the current situation Dark was facing.
Moreover, his worries were five tis that of normal people.
"Let's start with Professor Lily."
The reply to Professor Lily was the easiest to write.
After all, not only did Professor Lily not express anything in written form, even the chocolate she gave out was fake.
Dark felt that the fact that she could get a reciprocal gift from him was already in consideration of their teacher-student relationship.
After thinking for a mont, he wrote on a card:
"Drink less."
……
But after writing this line, Dark suddenly realized sothing. He was clearly giving her wine-filled chocolate, yet what he wrote were such high-sounding words. This was really a bit too pretentious—but he had already written it, so be it!
Anyway, Professor Lily wouldn't give up drinking just because of this.
And thus, Dark calmly picked up the next card.
It was a pink card sprinkled with cherry blossoms.
Dark had actually been hesitating on whether to give Eudora a reciprocal gift, but it was undeniable that the crafting of [Honedge] was thanks to her prophetic guidance.
"Speaking of prophecy..."
After a mont of deliberation, Dark then wrote:
"You've shown results in your studies, there's a promising future ahead of you."
How tactless was it to write sothing like this on a White Day gift!
……
After finishing Eudora's card, Dark picked out Dianna's card, casually drew a picture of a drooling (¯﹃¯) little bear eating chocolate, and then wrote the word [Yummy!] in a speech bubble.
As Dark looked at the lifelike gluttonous little bear while putting down his pen, he couldn't help letting out a chuckle.
Dianna was truly a happy pill.
……
Afterwards, he picked out Rose's card and picked up his pen.
But this ti, he spent a long while without putting pen to paper.
Later on, just like Dianna's, he simply drew a little rabbit lying on a crescent moon on the card.
But after drawing this little rabbit, he kept feeling like sothing was missing.
After thinking for a long ti, he drew a little bear next to the little rabbit.
Later on, he simply added a cat on its other side.
As such, the entire composition finally looked complete.
It was as if this was how it was ant to be.
Rose always believed that the existence of Dark and Dianna had added color to her originally gray school life.
But for Dark, how could he not feel the sa about Rose and Dianna?
Without the two of them taking the initiative to get close to him, Dark, who had been bearing the pressure of [deadly sin] since the start of school and adhered to the principle of distancing himself from society, might've gradually beco reclusive and headed for a completely different future.
A person's psychological changes would be greatly affected by their environnt.
Every single friend on the road of growth was imnsely precious.
Dark slipped the card he had finished drawing on into the chocolate gift box and held the last card in front of him.
"Haah…"
Even though [deadly sin] had reached a point where the demand exceeded the supply, there hadn't actually been any major change to his current predicant.
To put it in a more literary terms, he still had half a foot in the abyss.
At last, Dark casually wrote a sentence:
"Take more rest."
……
Tuesday.
On this day, which was less than 24 hours away from White Day, the atmosphere in the classroom felt like a mutiny had suddenly occurred.
The distance between boys and girls had inexplicably beco even further.
At first, Dark didn't pay much attention to it. It wasn't until the afternoon when he packed his bag after school was over did he suddenly realize that he hadn't spoken even half a word to Dianna all day long.
This was simply more shocking than the sky falling!
Just as he was feeling dumbfounded, Dark saw Dianna and Rose holding hands while hurriedly sneaking out of the classroom.
"Good gracious, they sure can bury their heads in the sand."
Dark smiled sowhat helplessly, and then left for the library as usual.
The three classes held today were the dueling class, arithtic class and History of Magic class.
The dueling class never had much howork, and he didn't need to do howork for arithtic class.
On the contrary, it was the History of Magic class, which looked like it should've had the least howork, that always assigned howork that required spending a lot of ti to search for information.
However, the process of searching for information was in fact also a learning process.
Dark ca to the library, did his registration in front of Ms. Bella, and went inside to do his research.
By the ti he finished his howork and ca out, it was already dinner ti.
The librarian behind the counter had changed to Senior Sister Pandora.
Pandora was teasing the chubby chinchilla grass. Upon seeing Dark, she raised her head and asked, "Are you leaving so early today?"
Dark nodded and said, "I've just finished doing my howork. I'm planning to go back and take out so books I had temporarily put aside and continue reading them."
Pandora joked, "Why do you seem busier than every ti I see you?"
Dark shrugged. "I always rest where others can't see."
Using a little force to pinch out and then release the chinchilla grass' cheeks, Pandora said with a smile, "Shouldn't it be 'working hard where others can't see'?"
Dark smiled and said, "What does that matter?"
Pandora: "You're right."
After Dark finished signing off, he resisted the urge to pinch the chinchilla grass' soft cheeks and waved, "Then I'll go back first, senior sister."
Pandora also raised her hand and waved. "Bye-bye."
But just after Dark took two steps, she loudly called out:
"Hey, don't forget my chocolate, okay!"
……
After having his dinner in the cafeteria, Dark returned to the dormitory.
Just as he had said, he was planning to pick up so of the things he had temporarily shelved aside, especially the study on [Zoo].
The amount of knowledge [Zoo] delved into was extrely huge. In the process of studying [Zoo], what he had gained was gradually surpassing [Zoo] itself.
He didn't know if it was because he hadn’t touched upon it for quite a long ti, but when he saw the sa content again, it abruptly brought about a sense of incognizance that should've no longer been there.
Thereafter, so questions he hadn't previously thought of sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Not only did this phenonon fail to deter him, it instead made him feel pleasantly surprised.
He beca more focused and began to conquer the difficult questions one by one, gradually falling entranced.
