~Happy 4th of July to everyone, even if you donāt live in the USA!\nāāNumber Threeā is my surname, āPersonā is my name. In the future, you can call me āTeacher Threeā or something like that.ā
Teacher Threeās words astonished the three girls. They really didnāt expect someone to have such a name. However, the name alone as well as the presentation of it really made Three feel powerful. At this moment, Lunaria couldnāt help but let her imagination run wild.
For example, Avalonās Person Number Three, you hear his name and imagine him to be powerful. Then, you expand your scope of view and realize that , in the Xigely Empire, this man was on the same power level as gods.
āIām sorry to interrupt your thoughts,ā Person started, āBut do you need to ask something? What do you need?ā
Teacher Threeās words were so sudden, that both Lunaria and Niluka jumped back in surprise. It turns out that Lunaria wasnāt the only one questioning this strange teacherās name, this other valley girl was also deep in thought.
Still, how did Teacher Three know that they were in thought?
In in instant, Darmiala replied
āWe came here to tour the Yushen building. After all, tomorrow we will officially attending class here, so we wanted to become a little familiar with the facilities.ā
āSo thatās the reason,ā Teacher Three calmly said. He lowered his upper body down so he could properly search around his desk. Then, from the very back of the drawer in his desk, Teacher Three took out a map.
āThis is the map for the entire Yushen building. Iāll assume that itāll be some use to you.ā
Darmiala gently took the map and bowed her head while saying
āThank you, teacher.ā
āNo need to thank me. Weāre going to be teacher and student for quite a while, and itāll be hard to build good relationships later. Treat it like a small gift, for now. So, was there anything else?ā
āNo, nothing. Well, teacher, weāll be off to explore other areas.ā
āAlright, go on ahead.ā
Darmiala turned around and signaled the others with her eyes before wearing her shoes and walking out the door. The other girls followed her exit out of the room before carefully closing the door behind them.
āNiluka, youāre way too hot-headed.ā At this time, Darmiala couldnāt help but chastise Niluka. This made the once energetic girl droop her head with an apologetic appearance. When Darmiala saw how Niluka felt, she couldnāt help but shake her head and smile. It was really hard to scold someone when they looked like that. On the side, Lunaria let out a few hollow laughs while saying
āLetās go ahead and look at the map.ā
Darmiala nodded in agreement as she opened up the map.
āCurrently, we areļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼In this office distict with 13 teachersļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼It looks we immediatly stepped into a place that we arenāt allowed in.ā
āBut, we profited from this disaster, right? We got this map?ā Niluka, who had just been sad and listless, had recovered enough to have her spirits relit. This happiness and extreme straightforwardness gave the other two quite the headache.
On the other side, Tyre, and his three roommates, began heading the school building, trying to find the rooftop.
āEven though this building looks huge, it really only has a meager four floors. But because there is so much area on each floor, itās able to accommodate everything needed for teaching. Every single teaching facility is located somewhere on one of these floors.ā Constantine once against started up the engine that was his mouth, tirelessly spewing out words and information. Even so, his information really had a lot of reason, so the other three boys werenāt annoyed by it at all.
āWait-wait-wait, look, guys, look!ā Constantine abruptly stopped everyone while whispering in a small voice. This sneaky manner made Tyre and the others feel like something was off with this situation. But, just as they were about to ask, Constantine indulged in his own pleasure and said
āTHAT is the girlās changing room.ā
This was a piece of information that Tyre really cared about! On the other hand, Claude and Bayun stared at Constantine with cold eyes. Because of this cold mood, Tyre decided to blend in, also pretending to despise Constantine while glaring at him. But Tyreās glare was so cold, that it made Constantine shudder from head to toe.
āHa ha ha~,ā Constantine laughed half-heartedly laughed, āIām-Iām only joking with you guys. Iām not saying that itād be great or anything if someone could sneak a few camera stones in and, you know, do that.ā
Didnāt that just expose exactly what you were thinking?! However, Tyre really didnāt expect this kind of trick. Constantine really was a hard to come by genius when it came to certain thingsļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼
āļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ā
Still, what a shame that, currently, Claude and the otherās continued to glare at Constantine, their eyes ice-cold.
āAre you also talking about Lunaria and Leah too? Peeping on them while they change clothes?ā Claudeās tone made Constantine feel like he had been trapped inside an icehouse as he shook his head so violently that it looked like he was being perpetually struck by lightning.
āHo-How could that possibly be? Theyāre both people of-of the Xavier Duchy. Why would I dare spy upon them? Really, Claude! This joke is going a little overboard! Hahaha!ā Constantine forced a laugh. This soft approach to a dangerous topic was really funny to Tyre.
At this time, Bayun stroked his chin , looking pensive, and opened his mouth to say
āSpeaking of which, Constantine, your surname seems to be the same as Darmialaās, Morpheus. If I remember correctly, Morpheus is the empireās northern ćConvictorćfamily, right?ā
Tyre and Claude took note of what Bayun had said. Without attempted to hide the truth, Constantine shrugged and said
āHow did we get to this topic again.ā
āI noticed this problem a while ago, but it didnāt bother me too much until now, so I didnāt care as much.ā
āHahaha, Bayun, you shouldnāt mind me at all. After all, I donāt care about your circumstances.ā
āGet lost!ā
āAiya, to tell the truth, thećConvictorćfamily is divided into the good side and the bad side. Iām inferior, so my name doesnāt contain the letterćļ¼§ćin it. If youāre still curious about this, you can go ask Darmiala. If I were to privately talk about that trivial nonsense, she and her old parents, Iām afraid, are all bad apples.ā When Constantine talked about Darmiala, his words were packed to the brim with ridicule. Although Tyre knew schemed a lot, he didnāt think she was the type to scheme to harm someone else. Thinking about it, Tyre realized he saw a lot of inter-family struggles similar to Constantineās. For example, Noah was forced to marry women he despised because of these family driven problems. Tyre thought the water was far too deep to ask questions, so he held back. Naturally, Claude was no idiot either, and neither of them continued to interrogate Constantine. Bayun looked like he wanted to say something, but then he hesitated. Eventually, however, he still spoke up
āOkay, okay. Donāt you guys think itās a little sad to proceed with such a heavy topic?ā Constantine laughed a bit as he walked towards away from the group and opened the second floorās corridor window. A burst of light wind softly swirled around the boys as itās warm, Autumn wind soothed everyoneās moods. In the end, everyone relaxed.
āWell, since weāre going to be roomates in our dorm, and classmates in our class, then, from now on as our relationship goes, you are my friend, and I am yours, am I wrong?ā
His words startled the other three boys.
Friends. When he heard that word, Tyre thought of Sand Sword and the others. The encounter with his initial party was what made Tyre remember the word, friend.
Maybe his encounter with Constantine was an opportunity to fully revive that word, so he could know its true meaning.
Friendļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼ļ¼
āYeah.ā Tyre was the first one to respond. Not a moment later, Claude also agreed. As for Bayun, he crossed his arms as he spoke
āIf you call me your brother, then Iāll accept your friendship.ā
āHahaha, if I were to call you my brother, then how would you fall for me?ā
āGET LOST!ā
Even after Bayun rained curses down upon him, Constantine hardly became angry. Instead, his lips curled up in a mischievous laughter as he continued to speak
āThen, letās walk around and see what kind of equipment and learning facilities lie on the second floor.
āAlright.ā
The corridor on the second floor ran through the entire building, mimicking itās concave shape. Tyre and the others started from the middle of the concave corridor and decided to head down the left passageway. They tried many doors, but it was a shame that a big portion of them were locked. Eventually, as they kept walking, they found an acquaintance.
