Chapter 3147 Moon Viewing Tower
The girl in the college uniform couldn't help laughing as she spoke. Xia De had never seen her in a school uniform before, so this was probably a relic from her school days.
Of course, he would not be so tactless as to point out that the other person was the one he was waiting for. Instead, he smiled and said:
"Hello, I'm an exchange student from another school. The administrator asked me to meet her here tonight. I think the agreed time has arrived."
As he said that, Shade took out the letter Emilia had sent him in the morning, but the red-haired girl wiped it with her hand and pointed out:
"Look, it says we'll meet at 11 o'clock tonight, but it's only 8 o'clock now. You're a little early."
Then he put his hands behind his back and stepped back. Shade's eyes were attracted by her beautiful lace-up boots. Seeing that the girl was smiling and staring at him, he put away the letter in his hand that was no longer meaningful and asked:
"Well, since it's still early, could you please show me around the academy?"
"Oh, sir, I have other things to do too. I'm very busy. I have a lot to learn, I have to finish my course papers, and I have to discuss future plans with my teacher. I don't even have time to meet my lover, so I don't have time to waste here with you."
Without "her" reminder, Shade knew what Danister was complaining about:
"I'm so sorry, but I can pay for it."
"What can you give me? If you dare to say something rude, I will turn around and leave now."
The red-haired girl still had her hands behind her back. Xia De only thought for a second before giving the answer:
"This time you showed me around the academy, how about I invite you to visit me next time?"
The eighteen-year-old girl looked at him suspiciously, as if wondering if this was worth it, and finally nodded reluctantly:
"But you have to take the initiative to invite me when the time comes. You can't let me remind you."
"Yes, next time I will take the initiative to invite you to visit me, and I won't wait until the end of the month."
"Hmph~ That's pretty much it."
She finally revealed a satisfied smile, and no longer put her hands behind her back. She walked over to Shade and took his arm:
"Let's go. It snowed heavily yesterday. After the snow was cleared, the courtyard with a cobblestone path was revealed. It's very beautiful. Let's go first."
They walked towards the bookshelf together, but at this moment another figure walked out from the bookshelf. The long-unseen principal, Mr. Pigman, appeared with a receipt:
"Professor Danister, in the list of relics loaned out by the Library Management School this year, are there two angel-level relics with borrowing receipt dates?"
Then he stared in amazement at the eighteen-year-old red-haired girl in school uniform holding Shad's hand. The principal was one of the few people in the academy who knew what Shad looked like. He had also taught Danister Gustave when she was a real student, so of course he knew who the two people in front of him were.
The scene at this moment made the highly respected principal so shocked that he was speechless. Before he was about to open his mouth again, the red eyes of the red-haired girl seemed to be scraping at him like a knife.
So he changed the subject in time and asked:
"Good evening. Are you the administrator's assistants on duty today? Professor Danister Gustave is not in the library?"
"She's away on vacation. Don't disturb her before ten tomorrow morning."
Danister said, and then, regardless of Principal Pigman's wonderful expression, she took Shad's arm and led him forward.
Xia De also said politely:
"Goodbye, Professor Pigman."
"Goodbye, Mr. Hamilton."
Then he watched Shad being pulled by the red-haired sorceress and disappearing into the bookshelf. The headmaster stood there for a while before leaving with a thoughtful expression.
He only nodded gently in response to the students' greetings along the way. However, at the portal in the library lobby, he happened to meet Professor Molly Torrel, the dean of the School of Astronomy, who came to the library's underground level to return a book:
"Professor Pigman, are you in trouble? Do you need the Astronomy Department to help you figure out the reasons for the errors and omissions in the year-end report?"
"No, it's not about the year-end report. Who is the chairman of the 'Teacher Ethics Construction Committee' of St. Byron's Comprehensive College?"
The professors in the college are all very good people, so this so-called "committee" is just one of the many institutions that exist in the college to subsidize professors with long teaching tenure.
Ms. Molly Torrel smiled and said:
"Maybe you're too busy at the end of the year and have forgotten about this? This position belongs to Danister."
The principal took a deep breath:
"I see. In fact, some institutions in the college are still necessary.
Are you coming to see Danister? Oh, that's good, she's out on vacation and won't be back until tomorrow noon. If you see a student in the college who looks very similar to her when she was young before then, please remember that it's just your illusion and don't expose her. "
The St. Byrons Comprehensive College located in the far north has developed into a giant academy city with the college castle as its core. Its area and population size are even more exaggerated than those of Tobesk and Willendel.
Although the city is the main body, it does not mean that the actual school area located in the center is small. On the contrary, the academy marked on the map is not very large, but because of various spatial anomalies and the space folding technology of the ancient witch, the area is actually much larger than people imagine.
Xia De had been to the academy several times before, but he had not been to many places. That night, under the guidance of the 18-year-old girl, he explored some areas of the academy, centered on the academy library.
St. Byron's looks beautiful after the snow, which is exactly in line with the scene of the silver-white magic academy imagined by outsiders. Walking hand in hand with the beloved girl in the courtyard, garden, square and bridge connecting the buildings, and then talking about the little things in the academy life and sharing the interesting things in each other's lives, this kind of life can easily make people feel happy.
"Emilia said that the academy has a unified dining hall and cafeteria, so how does the academy's kitchen operate? Could it be that there is a group of goblins who work hard and don't want to be paid under the academy?"
As they passed through the "Violet Arch" on the west side of the castle and headed towards the small hall of the academy, Shade asked Danister, who was holding his hand, in the snow. The two rows of footprints behind them were nestled together, and the girl smiled and said:
"How can there be goblins who don't want to be paid? The professors have their own small kitchens, and the academy's big kitchen employs human chefs. Not everyone living in the academy city has the talent of a ring sorcerer, so it's easy to find some good chefs among them."
This made Shad a little disappointed, as he had thought that the kitchen of a prestigious "magic school" like St. Byron's College would be more magical.
But at least the moonlight in the far north was really beautiful tonight. Not long after, when they were kissing on the top of the right side of the astronomical college's observatory tower, Xia De forgot about the boring topic about the kitchen - he was not Mia.
But at ten o'clock in the evening, the girl did not let Xia De go back to the library to see the administrator, because the last stop of the short college tour was the "Moon Viewing Tower" located behind the college library.
The tower is seven stories high, and its top is the commanding height of the entire St. Byrons College.
This is the "dormitory" of successive librarians, and of course it also serves as a laboratory, etc. Danister inherited this place after the disappearance of Ms. Helena Carter, but she actually came here almost every day when she was an apprentice.
The tower is connected to the second floor of the library by a passage, but you can also reach the inside of the tower by walking on the ground or through a portal.
The red-haired girl didn't tell Shade what this place was at first, and the naive outsider thought it was a tower attached to the college library.
When the two of them took the elevator to the top floor of the tower, Shade saw the bed covered with red gauze illuminated by the moonlight, the piles of books beside the bed, and the brass telescope on the window, and he immediately understood:
"We are here to watch the stars and the moon, right?"
Then he was hit lightly by the girl, and Shade himself laughed:
"The living conditions here are very good. The seven-story tower is all yours. It's much bigger than my house."
"But I live alone here after all, and sometimes I feel lonely."
The red-haired girl took off her coat and threw it on the carpet, then hugged Shade:
"I originally thought that you would move in many years later, but I didn't expect that you would spend the night here so soon."
Xia De felt that the fabric of her student uniform felt quite good:
"Well, Miss, the college hasn't arranged a dormitory for me yet, so can you allow me to stay in your dormitory tonight? I swear I won't steal your soap."
The girl in his arms immediately smiled and said:
"Since you said so, then I will allow you to stay here temporarily. But you have to be careful. I am kind enough to show you around the academy and give you my dormitory just so that you can study better in the academy in the future. I am not asking you to come here to sleep with the sorceress."
Shad replied:
"Yes, yes, Senpai."
The red-haired girl's face turned red. She didn't expect Shade to say such a thing:
"What are you talking about? I'm yours. Do you want to go take a bath together? There's a hot spring bath in the basement of the tower. It's not as good as the one in the woods, but it's pretty good."
She gently pushed Xia De, telling herself not to be too anxious, but she said:
"Don't be too anxious. This night is long. I won't let you go home."
"Yes, yes. I have already arranged for Mia, so there is no need to go back tonight."
The two of them prepared to go downstairs together again, this time taking the stairs instead of the elevator. Danister wanted to tell Shade the function and purpose of each floor here:
"Although this tower has been rebuilt, the main structure still comes from the beginning of the Fifth Era Academy. I have confirmed with Emilia that Miss Blyne Olanord's former dormitory should also be in this tower."
"Tell me what this is for?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly thought of it. I don't mean to compare myself with others. That's what immature girls do."
In the end she couldn't continue talking, but luckily they had already gone downstairs via the stairs, so they could start the next topic.
