Russell bowed slightly: "I really didn't expect that a decent magic academy would impart this knowledge. ”

Black Amber suddenly laughed:

"Russell, do you think I'm a good person?"

Russell replied without hesitation: "I think you are an upright and kind cat, Professor." ”

Black Amber stared at Russell, her eyes full of emotion:

"I have always believed that the key to the good and evil of a power lies in the people who use it. Moreover, the knowledge you have acquired is not only the methods of using evil arts, but also the skills to fight and counter them. ”

The black cat's expression became more and more solemn: "Child, do you know why among the various majors in the academy, the Department of Necromancy and Life has almost the smallest number of people?" ”

Russell got into thought.

He knew that there were several thousand students in the academy, almost all of them in the elementary school. But among them, there are no more than 100 students in the Department of Necromancy and Life. The professor uses "almost" because the civil engineering department seems to have a little less.

"I don't know." Russell gave the standard answer.

"Because when evaluating talents, the Sorting Hammer sometimes takes into account other qualities of students. Different from other majors, if you want to be assigned to the Department of Necromancy and Life, in addition to the talent endowment of the corresponding major, you will also consider whether the student has the potential to resist temptation, not easily go astray, and the ability to control your own desires. These values, which have nothing to do with magical talents, will account for a considerable amount of points. ”

I see...... Russell bowed his head lightly and raised another question:

"Then why are there still many demon worshippers in Chaos Red who are assigned to the Necromantic and Lifeform departments?"

He remembered that the professor had said that the members of the Demon Order were mainly focused on this major and the Department of Creation and Summoning.

"On the one hand, it may be because their endowment score in the major is too high; On the other hand, it may also be because even if students have the potential to resist temptation, it does not mean that they will not fall into darkness. ”

With that, Black Amber paused and looked meaningfully at Russell.

Russell carefully pondered the meaning of Professor Black Amber, and if he realized, he showed a suddenly realized expression:

"Professor, I think I understand.

"What you mean is that there is a lot of room for optimization in the Sorting Hammer's algorithm.

"Shouldn't you simply use a weighted score?"

"......" The black amber cat looked confused, and didn't know how to reply.

"Ahem, all in all, kid, you are now the best spellcasters in the primary courtyard, and there are not low-level contract spirits like wind chimes. Your undercover work will continue, and hopefully your newfound abilities will help you. ”

"Thank you." Russell nodded, and then asked:

"Oh, by the way, Professor, you said that when I get to the second grade, I can tell me the second sentence of the prophecy?"

He didn't say that he had heard the second sentence of the prophecy from the demon followers of the Chaos Red Order.

Black Amber's face showed a hint of hesitation:

"This ...... Programally, you haven't officially moved on to second grade. Let's wait until you officially pass the final exam of the first grade. ”

"If I don't pass the final exam, do I need to return what I just learned to the teacher?" Russell chuckled and told a joke to liven up the atmosphere.

Professor Black Amber was silent for a moment, returning to the original topic:

"Let's talk about you and Wind Chimes shooting horror movies."

……

In the dormitory, Russell was lying on the bed, chatting with the wind chimes on the screen of his mobile phone.

Wind chime's hands pressed against the screen:

"Russell Russell, what prophecy are you talking about? Does it have anything to do with the prophecy of the Red Order of Chaos? ”

Russell did not answer, but digressed the topic:

"You should feel it, Professor Black Amber has always been very strange about me."

"Not at all!" Wind Chime's pupils were shocked, "When you gave me the distinction between decency and villains before, wasn't she counted among decent characters?" ”

Russell described it in a language that Wind Chimes could understand: "Professor Black Amber fears that I will one day become a villain. ”

"What does she mean? Why didn't she just say it? "The wind chime scratched her head, she had been dead for too long, and the spirit synapses had not been used for many years, and her brain was a little unable to turn.

"Whether it's according to the principles of drama or the principles of witchcraft at the occult level, it is not good to point it out directly. It's called a prophecy. Russell said lightly.

Wind Chimes try to mimic Russell's brain circuitry and raise a genius question:

"Isn't the decent villain from your standpoint? If you become a villain, doesn't that mean that all the decent people become villains? ”

Russell didn't respond, silently closing his eyes. He visualized a room full of pennants in his home and replayed a dozen reports about the "little hero Russell" in his mind.

In this way, he closed his eyes and recuperated for a while before slowly opening his eyes and saying:

"Shall we talk about something more important?"

"What?"

"Make horror movies."

……

The next morning.

"You are the 'Phaseless' Light and Shadow Art Society, right? I'm Russell. Professor Black Amber recommended me. ”

Russell greeted a group of students with cameras on their shoulders.

The Phaseless Light and Shadow Art Club is a relatively "peaceful" force in the academy, and the degree of peace even exceeds that of the board game club.

- After all, a few years ago, there were board game club students who turned into real werewolves in the process of playing the magic werewolf game and killed all sides.

The president is a second-year boy in the Department of Mind and Illusion, and filming movies seems to be a way for him to practice the way of illusion.

I saw that the president had an elegant face, a tall figure, and a formal suit, and said to Russell with a smile:

"Our club has received an assignment from the professor to assist you in filming a horror video. Can I meet the actress the professor is talking about? ”

Russell bowed his head lightly and pulled his phone out of his pocket.

I saw that on the screen of the mobile phone, there was a girl with pure white long hair flowing and her eyes slightly closed.

This screensaver is two-dimensional, and so on...... In the president's shocked gaze, the girl on the screensaver opened her eyes, came to life, and drilled out of the screen.

Out of caution, Wind Chime used illusion to modify the details of her facial features in advance, so as not to be discovered by her killer.

"Alright, let's start working on the specifics." Russell tucked his phone back into his pocket with an indifferent expression.

……

In the weeks that followed, Russell worked on horror films and began to try to master the new abilities he had acquired in the early years of his sophomore years.

As for the daily classes, the content is too basic and simple for Russell now, and it is purely a break time.

Relying on a large number of supernatural materials purchased earlier, Russell began to try to refine various secret medicines.

In this regard, Russell was also half apprehensive and half excited.

"I wonder if I will make my magical talent change with extraordinary abilities, and will I be able to concoct a very strange potion?"
