Chapter 21: Dark Demon is Impeccable
Waking up from a nap, it was already Sunday.
The "rustle, rustle" of rain came from outside the window.
Dark squinted, got up, brushed his teeth, and washed his face, not giving [Sloth] any chance to score points.
He didn't go to the common room today, but stayed quietly in his bedroom for a while.
The Seven Deadly Sins indicators were sometimes difficult to grasp. For example, right now he was doing nothing, just watching the rain outside the window, his mind calm and leisurely, and nothing was triggered.
But this state of mind was not easy to maintain.
Around seven o'clock, Dark unusually went to the cafeteria for breakfast, and then borrowed the [Thought Bottle] from Professor Kazell.
Professor Kazell seemed to assume that he was researching emotional topics, so he lent it to him without much questioning.
And the [Thought Bottle], as the name suggests, is a container used to store "thought substances" such as memories, emotions, knowledge, and ideas.
Of course.
Whether it's memories, emotions, knowledge, or ideas, they will always fade away with time.
Relying solely on the [Thought Bottle], which costs a few hundred credits, cannot completely prevent the fading of thoughts.
It just provides a wall, making the loss of thought substances slower.
The best preservation time for thought substances is 72 hours. After 72 hours, the fading phenomenon will intensify.
Dark decided to set the next experiment time for Tuesday afternoon or evening of the third day.
By then, there should be 3 points of [Pride] available for experimentation.
…
Probably because the rain was getting heavier and heavier, the new students could only be dejectedly holed up in the common room.
Some were reading, some were playing chess, and some were desperately catching up on homework.
Diana belonged to the latter category.
She dragged Rose to a corner of the common room, found a spot, and bit her pen, rushing to finish her assignments.
Diana was really not very clever. Things that others could remember after just one reading, she needed to read several times.
Her talents were completely concentrated in magic and physical strength.
If it were the last era when the Demon Race still existed, she would be a proper magic-martial arts dual cultivation holy knight, maybe even capable of dominating battlefields and becoming legendary throughout history.
But in the Saint Marian Era, knowledge is the primary productive force.
To become a qualified mage, one must learn to use their brain.
The reason why Diana hadn't fallen behind in her studies so far was half thanks to Rose's guidance, and the other half was thanks to Dark is tutoring!
Especially for arithmetic class, which was the most difficult for freshmen, Dark had given her too much help.
Dark had always tried to avoid social interaction. At first, it was because he was afraid that his quick temper would be uncontrollable, and he might directly awaken in anger if he encountered any internet trolls.
Now, it was because he was afraid that his sense of superiority would become uncontrollable, making him too arrogant.
The truth was, none of these first-year little mages were a match for him!
The topic of Saint Marian was heating up again in the Sage Daily, mainly because the descendants of the "Kingdom Double Swords" had simultaneously become freshmen at Saint Marian.
Some teachers and students from the Saintly Rite Academy were starting to feel sour. If they could seize upon some misconduct of one of the freshmen and report it extensively, it would surely hit the arrogant arrogance of Saint Marian!
They naturally set their sights on Dark Demon, whose reputation was very poor. They heard that this young duke was hedonistic at a young age, arrogant and lazy, foolish and irritable, simply a standing target for people to beat up crazily!
Moreover, targeting Dark Demon might further hit the dove faction led by Duchess Arvette!
Everything is always contradictory and repetitive.
The Valkyrie, who once galloped across battlefields, killing and burying bones without batting an eyelid, understood the importance of recuperation and became a dove advocating for peace.
The Saintly Church forces, who once actively advocated for peaceful coexistence and reduced killings during wartime, had instead become hawks advocating for military expansion in the face of current development obstacles!
How does that saying go, without war, where does faith come from?
The Pope of the Saintly Church would not personally take action, but the Chief Archbishop, one of the thirty-six councilors, often gave grand speeches in the council, instigating the King to send troops to conquer.
Taking advantage of the fact that the surrounding small countries were not yet strong, they wanted to wipe them out in one fell swoop!
The King was old and had lost his ambition, so they encouraged the Crown Prince to succeed to the throne and conquer the world.
The Crown Prince had always been ambitious and coincided with the Saintly Church.
In this way, the dove faction had to turn to support the gentle-mannered Eldest Princess, and it also happened to ride the current wave of the Renaissance, supporting women to stand up and recommending the Eldest Princess to succeed to the throne!
Of course, everyone understands why a Galgame has this kind of setting. (ಡωಡ)☞
However.
Flies don't bite seamless eggs, meaning eggs without seams are invincible (lol)!
Egg
The pawns that the hawk faction had placed in Saint Marian had failed to find even the slightest bit of dirt on Dark!
Virtuous conduct, excellent grades, good habits, self-disciplined life, diligent and hardworking, not greedy or jealous, gentle to others, humble and polite, impeccable etiquette, elegant and handsome…
It seemed that all the beautiful words could be used on him.
Yes, this was Dark Demon!
An excellent, perfect, and impeccable man!
The future little nun who was secretly observing him was almost falling for Dark Demon's charm!
If they had to nitpick, perhaps the fact that his familiar was of the demon race could stir up some public opinion…
In contrast.
The other descendant of the Kingdom Double Swords seemed less outstanding.
Clearly the son of a hero even more noble than the Valkyrie, this Mr. Gode spent all day and night hanging out with the son of a rural nobleman.
Not only did he not do his homework properly, but he was also sometimes late or absent from class!
In a week, half of his credits could be deducted!
Simply a disgrace to the hero's family!
Moreover, this son of a hero, his familiar was also of the demon race!
Descendants of the Kingdom Double Swords, great contributors to the extermination of the Demon Race, their familiars were both of the demon race!
Although looking at the phenomenon to see the essence, the appearance of demon race familiars has many factors intertwined, and this cannot specifically explain anything.
But in the eyes of people who don't understand magic, it was a major event that could set off a public opinion frenzy!
However.
Even the hawk faction did not dare to attack the two sons of the Kingdom Double Swords at the same time, which would most likely cause a nationwide backlash!
As people's minds gradually opened up, the masses were becoming increasingly difficult to fool.
What they originally wanted to do was to secretly incite the opposition between the two sides, perhaps even taking the opportunity to pull the hero's son into their camp?
Now it was good.
The two sides were completely not on the same level.
How could they create opposition?
Worry!
Even so.
The Sage Daily was still filled with open and covert struggles between the writers of the two factions.
As the largest and most authoritative newspaper in the country, the Sage Daily's audience was spread throughout the country.
Over the past month, everyone throughout the country knew that the sons of the Kingdom Double Swords had all chosen Saint Marian.
They also knew about the reappearance of the hero's son.
What some people particularly cared about was whether the hero's son had inherited the hero's power?
If so, did his appearance mean that the prophecies of the prophets were about to be fulfilled, and disaster would rise again?
