"Mr. Rocky, do you really think that's what you said in class?"

Siddo smiled, and there was a hint of exhaustion in that smile.

Ranch nodded, looking into the distance.

The two of them walked along the stone corridor path, and on the side of the terrace of the stone corridor, there were a few flowers and leaves floating on the water surface of the small pond in the center of the green garden.

"From my personal research, I do feel that the things in the images are not like the demons I know."

Ranch replied pertinently.

Although he wasn't necessarily right, judging from his personal subjective judgment, those guys weren't qualified demons.

“……”

Sidor pondered for a long time.

"I can tell you something."

He looked at the pond and said softly.

"Please, Mr. Xido."

Ranch now feels that Siddo's position is delicate.

According to Ranch's previous knowledge, Sido Arendelle is an academic faction of Isis, the Grand Sage of the Empire, and has always been absolutely neutral about the turmoil in the Empire.

There was not a word about the two of them in their exchange of positions, but they could roughly tell each other's tendencies.

"This month's assessment day, there may be someone who would want to do something cruel to Zestila, such as taking off her horns or eyes."

Siddor's hesitant voice was filled with a lot of uncertainty.

"Why?"

Hearing this, Lan Qi paused and asked.

"It's just speculation."

At this point, Sidor stopped.

There was a moment of silence between the two.

Ranch probably understood what Sidor meant.

Some words are just not very convenient to say directly.

Sidor also suspected that some forces in the Northern Continent were trying to create spells that perfectly disguised demons, in order to deepen their fears and provoke war.

This kind of experimentation and the process of refinement are destined to require samples.

In the Protos Empire, most of them are mixed races with a low degree of demons.

And Zestyra's latest entrance test report shows that she has an atavism close to that of a pure-blood demon.

It may be of great significance to obtain the materials on Zestyla's body.

Sidor must have known something else to make such an inference.

As the two approached the office building of the History Division, the exterior walls were slightly worn by time, but the texture of the masonry was particularly mellow after the snow melted in winter.

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Sido."

After stepping through the threshold, Ranchi finally spoke slowly.

The building behind the door is greeted by a dim light, and the faint light of an old wrought iron chandelier at the end of the corridor illuminates the space with shadows on the wall.

That is, on the day after tomorrow on the Wednesday of the month.

If he can protect Zestira and find someone suspicious to confirm his suspicions, Sidor may tell him more about what the neutral faction knows.

"In the past two days, I also asked Mr. Rocky to help me manage classroom discipline more."

Xi Duo smiled slightly and said sincerely.

The words he had just talked to Lan Qi had disappeared like a passing cloud.

"Don't worry, I promise that I will rectify the style of study."

Ranch bowed his head responsibly.

……

The sun went down and the sky became dark, and then the morning sun shone on the earth again.

And so on, two days passed in a flash.

Helrom is the day of the monthly examination at the end of February.

A soft pink fades away the silence and darkness of the night, and a single-family dormitory quietly awakens in the quiet residential area of the Royal Academy of Protos.

The exterior of the house was covered in creepers, a beige wall showing out of the verdant green, and on the side behind the curtain of the floor-to-ceiling windows, Zestira slowly sat up from the bed.

Her sleepy, ignorant eyes were slightly vicious, and she scratched her messy hair.

You have to get up early today and arrive at the Ward of Enchantment Assessment before 7:50 in the morning, otherwise you will be counted as missing the exam, and you will not only lose the opportunity to get a large number of credits once a month, but you will also be punished by having many credits deducted.

There was already the chirping of canaries in the courtyard outside the window.

“……”

She knew that the teacher should have gotten up a long time ago and was now feeding the birds in the garden.

Zestila lit up her student bracelet and looked down in confusion, only to see that in addition to the time, the dull crimson glossy text on the bracelet also showed that it had become a credit point of [ 172 (+10)].

"How did so many credits come in yesterday?"

She muttered to herself.

It should be that a new credit has arrived at 0:00 today, making her total number of credits 182.

The points appear in parentheses, indicating that Ms. Rocky helped her get the credits.

10 credits doesn't seem like a lot, but even though she was already at the top of the prep school rankings, she was far from being able to earn double-digit credits a day in her usual daily classes.

Generally speaking, the main way for pre-university and first-year students to earn credits is on the monthly assessment day.

On the basis of performance, 100 credits is already very high.

If you are very good and lucky, you may even get close to 300 points, and for pre-university students, once you reach 1000 total credit points, you are eligible for early promotion to the first year.

"It's good to tell him not to do anything."

Zestyra muttered to herself, stepped out of bed, and walked on the soft carpet.

But I was still a little moved in my heart.

Wanting to earn 10 credits a day is not a very easy task even for senior students.

I haven't seen much of the teacher in the past two days.

He went out early in the morning and would return to his unit very late, and he couldn't be seen at all in the lower grades, so he must have had a hard time.

The main house is surrounded by lush greenery and flowers, and in one corner of the garden is a tall eucalyptus tree with a canopy that acts like a large umbrella, providing abundant shade for the plants and critters below.

Zestyra walked out of the mansion and soon saw Ranch in the garden.

She walked lightly in the direction of the big tree.

The paths of the garden are beautifully paved with cobblestones, and the paths are lined with a variety of flowers, which bloom in a shy color in the morning light, and a pair of white butterflies flutter among the flowers, their wings shimmering lightly in the morning light.

Zestyra stopped in front of Ranchi.

"Teacher, what's the matter with these 10 credits?"

This time was different from usual, although some of the birds were startled by her, but after a while a few flew back hesitantly.

It seems that they heard Lanchi tell them that Zestyla was also a friend, or maybe they did find the dragon to be non-aggressive.

"Normal work reward, there will be 10 credits in the account every day for the next three days, as long as I come to school I can earn credits, yesterday was busy, I didn't have time to tell you."

Lanchi smiled and put down the bag of millet in his hand.

He was hired on Monday, and he didn't get a job until Tuesday, so Zestyla should have received yesterday's credit award.

"Teacher, you haven't been bullied by senior students at school in the past two days, have you?"

Zestira asked, glancing at her bracelet.

She was still a little worried about Ranchi, who had been hanging out in the senior district all day.

"Nope."

Ranch tilted his head as a matter of course.

"That's good."

Zestyla's only concern was that the teacher was being targeted by the seniors.

There will be a bounty mechanism in the monthly assessment day waiting for a while today.

If you make a feud at school, there is a good chance that you will get a bounty.

And if a bunch of feuds are formed, that number can multiply.

But it stands to reason that you can't offend a lot of people in this school.
