Chapter 37

Chapter 37After Lechael dismissed everyone, the students began leaving the Hall of Origins in groups of three or four . As for Lunaria, she decided to hang out with Claude and the others . Fortunately, Leah and Noah were also placed into class nine . As a result, the entire Duchy had assembled . It was almost completely clear that there was some outside influence involved .

Soon, Tyre and LongTu converged with the group .

However, when LongTu saw Tyre standing with no reaction next to an unfamiliar girl, Xiaoqi, she couldn’t help but narrow her eyes in their direction .

“Aiyo, Tyre, yet again, you’ve got great luck with the ladies . ”

“Oh, sorry to tell you this, LongTu, but it’s not what you think it is . ” Tyre said this while waving his arms around frantically, trying to explain . After all, LongTu’s words could seriously hurt Xiaoqi’s feelings .

“How could I possibly be misunderstanding? I really can’t see how that’s possible! It’s only been a single day, and you’ve already found such a high-class beauty! CONGRATULATIONS!” LongTu had misconstrued what Tyre was trying to convey to her . In her eyes, Tyre was just trying to cover up an obvious lie and was only mocking her with his ‘explanation . ’ However, the one thing Tyre had tried to protect was already hurt . LongTu had hurt Xiaoqi’s feelings .

“To this classmate, I say sorry . ” Xiaoqi put his hands on his stomach . His face was washed in sorrow as he said

“But, you should take a look at my school uniform . It’s a male uniform . How about, next time, you look at a person in their entirety, instead of just their face . You judging me like that really hurt me . ”

LongTu’s eyes opened as wide as melons . Her silly appearance almost made Tyre burst out in laughter . LongTu immediately turned and looked at Constantine, who was standing near Tyre

“She’s a he?”

“Ehhh~” Apparently, this piece of information ended up overwhelming LongTu . At this time, the lively Constantine, who was just on standby, decided it was now a good time for a proper explanation

“Even though I don’t want to be convinced either, he really is a man . ”

“Male? Male?! MALE!?” LongTu took huge strides forward towards Xiaoqi, her arms outstretched . Then, she struck, groping his chest . Xiaoqi couldn’t help but become flustered .

“Hey, LongTu?! What are you doing? That’s just not right!” Tyre looked around him and saw his classmates completely dumbstruck . In the end, he couldn’t endure it, and warned LongTu to understand exactly what she was doing, and where . However, LongTu couldn’t care less about her surroundings, and continued to grope Xiaoqi . Her eyebrows shot up as she realized there really was nothing on Xiaoqi’s bosom . However, LongTu would not have been convinced that this preposterous statement was true, had she not done this experiment .

At this instant, Xiaoqi, who had been violently handled by LongTu, freed himself from her grip, taking multiple steps backwards, tendrils of dark elements surrounding him .

“LongTu, you’ve gone a little far . ”

LongTu, slightly surprised, was taken aback, and realized just how drastic her actions were . It was just a classmate standing next to Tyre . Who cared if they were male or female? After realizing this, Longtu couldn’t help but stare at Tyre blankly . The innocent man in a mask just shrugged back at her . In the end, Tyre had done nothing wrong . But, why did it feel like he had done something wrong?

“Tyre, you’re coming with me . ”

Ignoring everyone’s confused stares, LongTu grabbed Tyre by his collar, and roughly dragged him away from the crowd . Fortunately, Tyre had strengthened his body through the diligent training of martial art techniques . Otherwise, there was no way his body would have withstood being thrown flat on his face, then dragged almost a kilometer by LongTu .

Xiaoqi watched as LongTu gradually became smaller and smaller as he straightened his clothes . He couldn’t even get mad . After all, who could have guessed that such a small girl could have exerted this much violent force whilst dragging someone away . Constantine, on the other hand, blinked his eyes again and again until the pitiful Tyre eventually disappeared over the horizon . Then, Constantine let out a sigh of relief .

“I trust you have been well since we last met,” D . Zi said as he entered the view of Lunaria and Claude . Next to him stood Leah who bowed in greeting .

“D . Zi, last time we were lucky to be in your care . ”

“Hahaha, my skill really amounts to nothing . In the end, it was Leah who crashed through everything to stop up . ”

“Mr . D . Zi,” Claude chuckled, “I guess I’ll just call you D . Zi from now on, now that we’re classmates . ” Claude smiled . D . Zi smiled in return . It seems that this pair only found friendship through exchanging blows . At first, D . Zi had shot down any attempts Claude had to socialize with him, but now the two of them could ridicule the past together . This truly was a genuine, stubborn mannerism .

“Claude, we’re now in the same class . I’m afraid that we’ll have to compete against one another someday . I have a feeling that, when that day comes, the fight will be even more fierce and intense than what we’re capable of now . ” D . Zi’s words made Lunaria and the others stare blankly . Nobody had expected D . Zi to think of that . However, Claude’s smile didn’t waver at all . Even though he didn’t use words, His overbearing presence and aura let D . Zi know that he would not be surpassed by D . Zi .

“Where do you live? Ah, that’s right . Tyre lives in the same dorm as me . ”

“What a coincidence!” D . Zi’s eyes were as wide as platters . He could hardly believe the odds of the two being in the same room . Could it be that there truly was someone arranging all this behind the scenes?

“Though, it’s a shame that I couldn’t live in the same dorm building as you guys, though . But, something I must tell you is that my side also has quite the coincidence . Tyre’s two followers, Sand Sword and Ghost Slayer, are my own two roommates!”

What?! This time, Lunaria almost screamed out loud . How could, out of 100,000 freshmen, could they pair up people that knew each other so many times? Was this place haunted? Once or twice was weird, but fine . But three, or even four times? That was beyond a coincidence!

However, where this ‘demon’ came from, Lunaria was clueless . At the very least, it was someone with a lot of power . Otherwise, roommates could not have been moved around like this so easily .

“Hmm~” Suddenly, a humming sound came from Leah, whose complexion began to change . This change confirmed to Lunaria that Leah had also realized the severity of the situation . On the other hand, the two big men, Claude and D . Zi, were completely clueless and unaware of what they saw and heard inside the academy . They were completely clueless .

“Sorry everyone! I need to use the bathroom!” Leah at last spoke up in an anguished tone while clutching her stomach . Lunaria promptly supported her, and said to Claude

“I’ll go with her . You can just stay and chat . ”

“But．．．．．．” Claude had wanted to say that it was risky letting two girls go off on their own . But, with a sharp glance from Lunaria, he quickly bit his tongue . D . Zi, with a knowing look on his face, simply smiled and did not interrupt .

“There are no toilets around the Hall of Origins . So, if you really must go to the bathroom, you must exit, the hall, go onto Origins street, and arrive at Kuanhu street . Only there, will you find the nearest toilet . ” After being glared at by Lunaria, Claude was hit with a key, brilliant idea . This made Leah’s face very white, making Lunaria promptly say

“Then, we cannot make any stops . We’ll go first and when we get there, I’ll contact you by specter stone . ”

“Okay, be careful on the road there . ” Claude couldn’t refrain from being overly concerned . Lunaria nodded her head as she supported Leah and led her out of the Hall of Origins .

“Hey, hey! Claude . ” D . Zi shouted at him with a considerable amount of sound . However, Claude’s mind was blank, and it took his mind a few seconds to register everything . Eventually, he came to, and replied to D . Zi

“W-What? What is it, D . Zi?”

“Don’t ‘what’ me . How have you been these past few days?”

“What about how I’ve been these past few days?”

“Just tell me anything about how things have been between you and Lunaria . ” After D . Zi finished his sentence, Claude’s face began to visibly change . Even though he felt his face begin to heat up, Claude still put in a tremendous amount of effort in order to stay calm and act nonchalantly .

“What kind of things? Don’t overthink it, D . Zi . ”

“Ha, ha, ha . Alright, alright . After all, we still have seven years, I’ll watch you two from the sidelines . ”

“．．．．．．” Claude could only meet D . Zi’s words with silence . Could he really trust himself to not do anything in the next seven years?

After Tyre was pulled out by LongTu, the unreasonable, little girl asked a stabbing question

“What’s wrong with you recently?”

“What? Nothing! I’m still sleeping and eating with ease . ”

“Your 【Eyes of the Soul】is very strange, you know that?” LongTu made Tyre stand a little more alertly . However, LongTu did not take note of his reaction, and continued to speak

“Back then, you were way too calm . I didn’t even get the feeling that you were even human . But, I could still see parts of you from the way you acted and gestured . ”

“So, what are you trying to say, why bring this up?” Tyre tried to test the waters of this conversation with his weak question . LongTu, crossing her arms, thoughtfully said

“I wonder if your Eyes of the Soul is just an inspired existence, or if it’s what your head’s calculating power is truly capable of . ”
