Chapter 7: Between the Gray Hairs

After Sheryue asks Louisa, who has recovered from treatment, and is scolded by her for not taking Beatis to do such a dangerous thing, they finally get an answer.

Louisa said that when she stepped into the cave, she felt a powerful magic inside—not from the magic system they were familiar with, but from the ancient magic they had seen in the books.

What the appearance of ancient magic meant, no one knows.

"I'll go to the Apocalypse Guild in a while to inquire in detail." Louisa said.

After that, the days were uneventful, as the Healing Ring was secretly transferred and placed in the custody of the White Mage's Guild, the Apocalypse's Guild, and the Oracles' Guild.

And Bai Disi continued to struggle with the sea of books and magic, and every day her ears were filled with Louisa's "Xiaobai, how does it feel about the fire element magic you learned yesterday?" "Xiaobai, although the foundation of magic incense is a common course, it must also be treated with care", "Xiaobai..."

Although the learning process was painful, Louisa was worthy of Christine, and with her help, Beatis's grades had reached the middle of the grade.

After the third test of the Bauhinia Academy, she received a letter from her mother, which also included a huge amount of living expenses.

In the letter, my mother indicated that the store had received a large order recently, and that the days to come would be busy, and that she hoped that she could come home to help during the holidays.

She readily agreed, and secretly rejoiced in everything that was getting better.

"Xiaobai, do you have any arrangements for the morning?"

At breakfast time on Saturday, Louisa asked suddenly.

As the name suggests, the curtain-like wisteria flowers climb on the shelves and slowly fall, revealing a purple sky.

Bettes took the trouble to enjoy the scenery while eating the special mutton pancakes, and when she heard the question, she quickly swallowed the food and replied.

"No, there are no special training sessions this weekend."

"Then after praying in the Temple of the Moon God, I want to take you somewhere." The other party suddenly pretended to be mysterious.

The Luna Temple Prayer is an event that takes place every Saturday morning in the continent of Frinella, and Emeline Selu is no exception, and on Saturdays the students of the entire academy go to the upper Luna Temple to pray, chant poetry, etc.

After praying, the two returned to the base level and entered the Hyacinth Garden, but instead of continuing past the Full Moon Fountain, they turned to the left.

Beatis has been enrolled in school for more than half a year, but she has never been to that area.

Ordinary students will enjoy afternoon tea with their peers there, and there are also clubs that hold some activities there.

Through the blue snowflakes, they came to a rather quiet pavilion with a large area of blue snow blooming nearby, and sitting in the gazebo, they could directly see the corner of the sprout layer and soil layer downstairs.

And what surprised her even more were the two people sitting in the pavilion.

It was Xue Eryue and another white-haired girl, who had pale brown pupils and curled her sideburns into beautiful waves, and this was the first time Beatis had seen her. The girl was dressed in a golden uniform, presumably a student from Yuukain.

"This is Yutilyn from Yuka-in, and this is my roommate Beatis." Once seated, Louisa introduced the two unfamiliar people.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries with Yu Tilin, Xue Eryue spoke.

"Then, welcome Xiaobai to join our 'white hair room'~"

"Between the gray hairs?" Beatis blinked in confusion.

After some explanation, she understood.

There are many societies within Emeline Selough House, but the smallest and lesser-known one is the White Hair Room.

This is a place where you are born and branched, and no matter what grade you are, as long as you have rare gray hair, you will automatically become a member of the gray hair room.

"Speaking of which, there should be some rare traits in the Frienia Continent, right? Why was only the gray hair taken out alone to form a club? ”

Beatis asked, puzzled.

"That's a good question, maybe it's because the dean is a man who is obsessed with gray hair." As she spoke, Eutilyn laughed.

Louisa also looked relaxed, munching and smiling and drinking tea.

Beatis understood her good intentions.

She was transferred to the Bauhinia Academy halfway, although her classmates were quite friendly to her, but after the so-called "small group" in the class had been established at that time, she would still be a little difficult to fit in, although she usually didn't say it, just looked at it with a gentle smile on the side, it seemed like a child that everyone liked, but only she understood how much she longed to have a few friends who would not show "communication rules with outsiders" in front of her.

So the only person she could rely on in the academy was Louisa, but sometimes Louisa was not in the academy, and she was alone again.

At this time, she introduced her friends to herself, hoping that she could take this opportunity to expand her network, and even have more opportunities to communicate through them.

Thinking of this, Bhatis only felt that this roommate was as careful as a hair, and although she rarely said her thoughts, Louisa's behavior always gave help that did not hurt her self-esteem, either intentionally or inadvertently.

Looking up, seeing so many girls with the same white hair that was slightly transparent in the sun, there was a warm current in Bhatis's heart that was burning her blood.

Great, she's no longer a monster.

"By the way, where does Xiaobai's family live? On weekdays, we can go out on holidays. Eutilyn looked at her and asked.

Although she knew that the other party had no malicious intent, her heart, which had just been warmed, suddenly became a little cold.

Eutrian naturally regarded her as a noble lady.

Unfortunately, she wasn't.

Memories suddenly flooded in—

"Why does Beatis have white hair?"

On the way home, she heard the classmate who was walking in front of her asking his parents in a childish voice.

"Maybe it's the illegitimate son of a nobleman, just with her mother's face, it's natural to be liked by the nobles, but she pitied her father."

The tone of course.

Beatis lowered her head, but could still feel the sneering glance from ahead.

She is obviously her father's biological daughter, and the red pupils from the family heredity have already explained this.

But why, why do they say that they are not their father's daughter.

"Beatis an illegitimate child."

"I don't want to be like her mother when I grow up."

"I'll never go to her bakery again..."

Those vicious words were like a wave, mercilessly drowning her.

"Xiaobai?"

A gentle voice sounded in her ears, and Louisa was looking at her with a concerned expression, perhaps because she had not responded for a long time, and thought that the question was offensive to her, so she turned her head to look at Eutiline.

"The school year has just begun, and you want to drag someone else to the wild?"

"Of course, you were also damaged by me." As if she didn't understand, she looked at Beatis again: "Is it far away?" You don't have to worry about that. ”

"I, my family lives in Isalan." She bowed her head.

"Wow, it's very good, I've been using the magic incense produced in the Garrani area, and it's not very far away, so we'll pick you up during the holidays!"

Thinking of her mother's letter, Bettes was a little embarrassed.

Should I say it?

"I'm afraid I can't go... I'm going to help make bread for the family. Her voice fell like a feather and fell into the golden Alan black tea in her hand.

"Making bread?" Xue Eryue tilted her head and asked puzzled.

"Yes, we are civilians and can only rely on this to make ends meet."

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere seemed to freeze a little, and even Louisa was a little surprised.

"Xiaobai is actually a civilian!"

"Yes."

Yes, that's it.

Laugh at me, bastard, the product of sin, I'm used to those vicious words.

The smile on her face had faded, and some of the sparkle in her eyes had been lost.

Emptying herself is her unique way of escaping reality.

"Xiaobai is a lucky child, the probability of gray hair among civilians is very low! At least I'm this big, it's the first time I've seen a civilian with white hair. Yu Tilin couldn't hide her surprise.

yes, just like that, laugh at me.

Well? Wait a minute? What did she just say?

"Lucky Son? … Don't you think, I'm a private, illegitimate child? ”

At the mention of the simple word that hurt her, Beatis paused, and finally said it.

"How so? White hair is not only exclusive to nobles, but also the children of commoners, and it is only because the probability is too low that some frustrated people will say that it is the patent of the nobility. ”

Hearing her say this, Louisa quickly explained. "Our Xiaobai is so cute, even the moon god can't help but bless you."

Only Louisa's explanations she would listen.

The rabbit-like eyes were red, and only the mysterious and deep purple in front of her could bring her stability.
