YM778.TV Chapter 148: The Dark Demon Does Not Know What Temperance Is
Autumn turned into winter, and everything in the world began to hibernate.
With temperatures plummeting, Saint Marian has finally started handing out winter uniforms.
But although it was the winter school uniform, only a warm lining was added to the autumn school uniform.
A new month began with the duel class on Friday.
Professor Jones stood on the podium and carefully analyzed the duel rules.
Dark in the last row tightened his collar. White mist rose as he sighed.
Last night, he made his monthly summary.
It turned out that he was less restrained in November than in October.
All sins except [Envy] and [Wrath] actually increased.
[Pride: 105→106]
[Envy: 42→41]
[Wrath: 94→90]
[Sloth: 62→64]
[Greed: 89→97]
[Gluttony: 62→64]
[Lust: 111→109]
This undoubtedly inflated.
He had drawn 3 points of [Pride], but his indicator still had actually increased by 4 points.
[Sloth] and [Gluttony] were also rising.
Although [Greed]\'s increase was expected, it was still increasing too fast, and there were faint signs of it being out of control.
[Lust] had reduced by 1 point after he used the flower card, and he had also extracted a full 12 points with the magic brain dropper, but its value still uncontrollably rose back to 109 points.
Although one of the factors for this increase of lust was that he deliberately increased it, it was still not easy to deal with.
If he didn’t restrain himself in December, the problem would get worse.
"Huff~" Dark patted his cheek, trying to clear his distracting thoughts and listen more intently.
It had been three months since school started, and there was less than a month left until the end of the first semester.
To be precise, the first semester would end on Friday, December 22nd.
Then Saint Marian would celebrate Christmas, and there would be a holiday for a week.
If students could guarantee that they could travel back and forth quickly within a week, they could apply to go home on the 22nd and spend a warm Christmas Eve with their families.
If not, they would need to stay at the academy obediently.
Because after the end of the holiday, the new semester would begin.
The second semester would start in January and go on until June, with final exams taking place one or two weeks after June followed by the summer break.
Due to the tight schedule, most teachers and students would choose to spend the Christmas holidays in the castle.
Every year on Christmas Eve, the academy would hold a dance and give each student a sock.
It was said that they could get a Christmas gift by staying up until after 5 am the next morning and then opening their socks. They would usually be pleasantly surprised!
...
"So, the second in-class competition of this semester will be held next Friday. I will record the ranking of this competition as your performance this semester, and then combine it with the final exam of next semester to give your final result.”
Near the end of the class, Professor Jones suddenly announced the time for the second in-class competition.
When she talked about the first half, the little magisters were actually very excited.
But as soon as the second half was mentioned, almost everyone pulled a long face.
"Seriously, it\'s tied to the final grade?"
"I heard that final grades can be converted into credits..."
"Doesn’t this mean that our test will be carried out ahead of time?"
"Isn’t this too sudden?"
"Wasn\'t it like this in the past?"
"Is there still enough time to start refining new cards today?"
There was a commotion in the classroom for a moment.
...
Professor Jones just squinted and said with a smile, "If you have any questions, you can raise your hand."
Emma was the first to raise her hand.
After Professor Jones called her name, she immediately asked, "Professor, are the rules this time still the same as the elite mode?"
"Good question."
Professor Jones clapped his hands, signaled her to sit down, and then said, "This time we will use a formal duel system, but there is no limit to the minimum number of magic cards."
Doron of Noble House immediately raised his hand.
Professor Jones nodded at him, and he immediately stood up and asked, "Wouldn\'t it be a disadvantage to those that have fewer magic cards?"
Professor Jones said calmly: "The magic card is the result of your studies this semester. People who study well will naturally have more magic cards. How can it be said that there is a disadvantage?"
Doron was reduced to silence for a moment.
From the last row by the door, White Gawd also raised his hands high.
When Professor Jones called his name, White asked loudly, "Professor, are there any credit rewards this time? Or can ranking scores be converted into credits?"
Jones said; "The ranking results in this in-class competition are only used as a reference for the total score of the final exam, so they cannot be converted into credits. But if you are the final winner, there will be credit rewards."
White: "How much?"
Jones: "Five thousand."
"Gasp--"
The audience immediately gasped.
What is the concept of five thousand credits?
The first-year "Crimson Star" winner, the king of the masquerade, Dark Demon, only got 5,000 credits in the event.
And the champion reward of the first in-class competition was only 1,000 credits!
Looking at this situation, probably there were credits for the second and third places.
Sure enough, Professor Jones said immediately: "This competition will be more complete this time, and the reward settings will be more comprehensive. Apart from the champion, the top ten will also be rewarded with credits."
As soon as the news came out, the classroom suddenly exploded with excitement.
The championship was not easy to win, but there was still a chance to get to the top ten.
Everyone was a freshman, so everyone’s chance was the same.
As long as they worked hard, there would always be a possibility!
As for the link to final grades, it was selectively forgotten.
"One more week!"
All students were gearing up.
White glanced at Dark who sat by the window and made up his mind.
...
Dark, who obtained some [Blinking Spell] basic materials last weekend, was also craving for credits.
It was just that he didn\'t show it.
Nor did he reveal any determination.
In the previous three months, he had never slacked in his study, so it was very obvious that he would win first place.
Instead of thinking about this, it was much better to think about how to protect the Worm Tree after winter.
There were roughly four types of potions for cultivating Worm Tree, and each season was different.
Among them, winter potions and summer potions were more expensive, while autumn potions and spring potions were cheaper.
In short, the potion should be changed.
So, after the duel class ended in the afternoon,
Dark took the time to leave the castle and entered Traveller Street through the Pavilion in the center of the lake.
...
December has just arrived, but Traveller Street was already in a bit of a Christmas mood.
Many shops had not even set up their Christmas trees yet, but the words "Christmas specials" were already added to the flyers.
Dark walked through the long street and first entered the [Cuckoo Bird Flower and Tree Shop], where he bought Worm Tree\'s winter potion.
Then he went into the [Kitties Flower and Tree Shop] and enquired about the improvement of Bunny Grass.
The shop assistant was a little embarrassed: "The problems in the improvement of Bunny Grass are really difficult to overcome, but I just got a new variety here. Would you like to take a look?"
