Chapter 4, Temptation Academy
The Snowy Ice Cream Chain Store will officially open on September 20. We warmly welcome all teachers and students to come and taste our offerings, with a 50% discount for the entire first week. Additionally, we are still in need of several staff members and sincerely invite handsome men and beautiful women to join us. Contact person...
"Is it you?" Han Yu was somewhat surprised; this guy hasn't left yet. What exactly does he want to do?
The youth before me seems to always bring surprises; looking at the silver light between his palms, it is actually fighting spirit.
In light of the bustling scene surrounding the admissions, Han Yu was perplexed and approached a girl in front of him, saying, "Classmate, may I ask you a question?"
Huh
At that moment, a large advertisement caught Han Yu's eye
Ask the previous question again
Han Yushuang raised both palms in front of his chest, forcefully absorbing the punch. The immense power pushed him backward, leaving two deep furrows on the ground.
Han Yu and Kleyan both do not particularly enjoy bustling environments, so the routes they choose are all quiet paths
It has been a long time since we last met, will you accompany me for a walk
Speechless... If one is to initiate a conversation, one should come up with a better reason than resorting to a question that everyone already knows.
However, the heavens do not fulfill human wishes. Poor Han Yu wandered around the campus for an entire morning, yet returned empty-handed. Oh no, does this mean I will have to eat steamed buns with thin porridge again for lunch today? This situation has persisted for three days, how frustrating!
Indeed, it is a prestigious academy; the environment is far superior to that of the university I attended previously
As the middle-aged knight and a wizard in his fifties approached slowly, Princess Meixilu, disguised as a man, frowned slightly. Meanwhile, Han Yu secretly wondered, huh, what are they following us for, to rob us? He couldn't find a few copper coins on himself, and while Krean might be a bit better off, he probably didn't have much either. Even if they had other intentions, they should be following pretty girls. Could it be... they have a special preference?
This is not only because fighting energy possesses strong defensive and offensive capabilities, but also because each type of fighting energy has its own attributes. For example, red represents fire, green represents wind, blue represents water, and yellow represents earth
Comparing oneself to others can truly be infuriating
The two individuals strolled leisurely, and the Saint Violet University truly lives up to its reputation as the highest institution of the Federation; its scenery is not inferior to that of a park. There were many students wandering about, with males constituting the majority. Of course, whether their purpose was to familiarize themselves with the campus or to seek out attractive young ladies remains to be deliberated.
Han Yu wanted to refuse, as she had not yet had lunch. However, seeing the expectation in Kleyan's eyes, she swallowed her words and said, "Alright"
Han Yu was immediately intrigued and wanted to ask for more details. However, at that moment, a person who looked like a teacher approached and gathered the boys present together: "Are you here to apply for the Combat and Magic Department?"
The princess clearly did not wish to reveal her identity and the _book_, so Casado and Prion naturally would not expose her either, thus they did not bow to Meixilu... The two pretended to pass by and walked on.
The person in charge of the assessment was a woman in her late twenties. Upon raising her head and catching sight of Han Yu, she was momentarily taken aback, thinking how handsome he was. This young man had an outstanding appearance and demeanor, but... his clothes were a bit wrinkled. There was no helping it; Han Yu had been wearing this same new outfit for many days.
Young people should think carefully before answering, as some decisions cannot be regretted once made
The young girl remained silent for two minutes before pouting slightly and said, "Because Princess Meixilu of the Mingyue Empire and Miss Yuelingna of the Luolinfan family are also coming to study at the Saint Violet Academy this year"
The sound of silver bell-like laughter reached Han Yu's ears. He scratched his head, wondering why this Kleyan's voice and actions always made him feel like a girl. Uh, it must be that he was overthinking it; he had mentioned having half elven blood... Perhaps all male elves are like this!
No one spoke up to deny it, and everyone's face displayed astonishment. How did he know? Could it be that this teacher is also a fortune teller
Work
During his time studying at university on Earth, Han Yu never asked his family for living expenses. He excelled in Chinese, Mathematics, English, Physics, and Chemistry, and tutoring was sufficient for him to support himself. Unfortunately, the civilization of Shuiyun Star is completely different from that of Earth, rendering this knowledge of little use; this avenue is no longer viable.
Due to the arrival of Princess Meixilu and Miss Yuelingna, there are too many people eager to catch a glimpse of the beauties. The actual enrollment process at Saint Violet Academy was delayed until the 9th and is expected to conclude within three days. Meanwhile, the numerous lecherous individuals can only return disappointed, as the two beauties hold such esteemed status that they do not need to attend to these matters personally; their subordinates will handle everything.
In contrast to the other party's brilliance, Han Yu appeared upright and serene, enveloped in a layer of silver light
Although Saint Violet is one of the three major academies of Water Cloud Star, it need not be exaggerated to such an extent... There are also many middle-aged men in their forties and fifties congesting the entrance; could it be that they intend to come here to study as well
"You two, having followed us for so long, can you finally show yourselves?"
The other party's domineering attitude instead provoked Han Yu's proud self-esteem. He raised an eyebrow and said, "What if I say no?"
"What is it?" The girl blushed, realizing that such a handsome boy approached her for a conversation right after arriving at the academy. It seemed she truly had a certain charm... Sometimes, blind confidence is not necessarily a good thing.
After disembarking from the spacecraft, the two went their separate ways. When Han Yu saw this congenial friend again, he was filled with joy
Miss Yuelingna Rowlingfein, aged eighteen, belongs to the Rowlingfein family, which is immensely wealthy. The family head and his wife have only this one precious daughter. As the sole heir, marrying her is tantamount to possessing the entire Rowlingfein family. However, similar to the situation with Adina Yi, it is not so easy to pursue a beauty of such caliber.
The words of Prion were laden with threats; in fact, he hoped that the young man before him would recognize the difficulty of the situation and withdraw. It had been a long time since he had encountered such a talented genius, yet as a commoner, associating with a princess was indeed a grave taboo.
The Princess Meixilu of the Mingyue Empire is not the only focus; the Lorinfein family of the Tianfeng Merchant Alliance is extraordinarily wealthy, to the extent that describing them as being as rich as a nation is not an exaggeration. The sole heir, Miss Yuelingna, is not only stunningly beautiful but also renowned for her talents. Since the age of fourteen, she has been assisting in managing the family business, and the Xueyisi Ice Cream brand is a high-quality brand that she has personally developed.
On the planet Shuiyun, possessing fighting spirit is a standard for determining a warrior's strength. Through diligence and effort, one can become a junior knight or even a mid-level knight without fighting spirit. However, advancing to a higher level is absolutely impossible. For thousands of years, there has never been an exception to this rule on Shuiyun.
Han Yu raised her head and looked at the magical clock on the distant building, which had already pointed to 2 o'clock. No wonder she was so hungry that her stomach was pressed against her back. Just as she was about to find a place to solve her lunch problem, she suddenly stopped in her tracks, feeling as if she were a prey being targeted by a lion
A long queue has already formed at the entrance. Generally, the treatment at such boutique stores is quite good. Although there are many wealthy students from Saint Violet, the majority are still commoners. Having paid the expensive tuition fees, it is beneficial for them to earn a little to supplement their living expenses. Han Yu busily stood at the back of the line
This year, Princess Meixilu of the Mingyue Empire and Miss Yuelingna of the Lorinfein family, allied with the Tianfeng Chamber of Commerce, will be attending our Saint Violet Academy. The teacher's face beamed with pride, stating that in this world, beauty and heroism possess equal destructive power. The arrival of these two super beauties will make Saint Violet stand out among the three major academies: "I believe everyone has seen the scene at the entrance. According to the academy's calculations, those who managed to enter under such circumstances must at least possess the qualifications of a junior knight or an apprentice magician. Therefore, to all of you applying for the combat department, you have been accepted"
"There is no reason. If you still wish to live happily in this world, then promise me." Prion placed his hand on the tree, and in no time, the once vibrant tree withered: "Of course, a vow is inevitable."
Since this is the case
God, thank you for not abandoning me
Han Yu exerted tremendous effort to squeeze in, glancing around at the boys who were all drenched in sweat. In contrast, the girls appeared relaxed and comfortable, as they had access to a dedicated passageway established by the academy, how fortunate they were
Han Yu was filled with joy; a renowned store is indeed a renowned store. The compensation offered far exceeded expectations—one gold coin, saved a little, enough to last a week. He inadvertently glanced at the price list beside him and was stunned. No wonder the employees' salaries were so high; it was even more expensive than Häagen-Dazs on Earth. He prayed for the brothers who were about to bring their girlfriends here for a romantic outing; they would surely weep for their wallets.
Ninety percent of the interviewees come out with a mournful expression. The HR manager does not dare to be careless; the young lady has given instructions to create a prestigious brand. Even for hourly workers, strict standards must be upheld.
If you promise never to meet that person again from now on, I will let you go
Han Yu seemed as if she had discovered a new continent; in an instant, a fleeting shadow passed by, and there was no one left in the original spot
Not bad, you discovered it so quickly
A leaf fell down and immediately turned to ashes upon landing on Prion's hand. His eyes sparkled with brilliance as he delivered a punch like a cannonball.
Alright, after the registration form is filled out, the seniors will take you to the dormitory. Ladies, follow me; there will be an exam prepared based on the majors you have registered for.
He turned around and saw a handsome young man: "Oh, Kleyan, is that you?"
Next, she raised several questions, which were quite similar to those in the interview on Earth. For Han Yu, handling these was merely a piece of cake
"What, the Fire Phoenix Goddess Athena?" Han Yu's memories flowed back, recalling that breathtaking and intoxicating beauty. Is there really another woman in the world who can be mentioned in the same breath as her
After a while, Kreyan made an excuse to take his leave, preparing to return and settle accounts with Count Fatrab, who had the audacity to send someone to follow him
A surge of red fighting spirit suddenly erupted from Prion, burning joyfully like flames, causing the surrounding temperature to rise sharply
"I have enrolled in Saint Violet Academy, and now we are classmates!" smiled Princess Meixilu, disguised as a boy wearing the Heart of the Sea mask. For some reason, over the past few days, she had been thinking about this somewhat mysterious and peculiar boy, feeling that he was quite interesting. Today, she changed her outfit to go out for a stroll, and unexpectedly ran into him, feeling an inexplicable joy in her heart.
What... what? The young girl was instantly stunned, looking at Han Yu in disbelief, and exclaimed, "Handsome guy, you must be joking, right?"
"Hi, how can I find you?" In this other world, apart from my master and sister, Krean can be considered my first friend, whom Han Yu cherishes deeply
The unexpected event left the boys exchanging glances until they saw the teacher take out the enrollment form for them to fill out, at which point they realized that it was all true. However, amidst their excitement, there was also confusion. Wasn't Saint Violet Academy notoriously difficult to get into? How had they obtained admission qualifications without having done anything yet? Could it be that they were still in a daze from sleeping and had not fully woken up?
Thank you
Han Yu frowned; Krean spoke in a girl's tone. However, his usual carelessness and preoccupation with books prevented him from thinking too deeply about it
The acting is poor, and the signs of affectation are too obvious
Oh, silver fighting spirit, it seems that it has not yet appeared on the continent. What kind of attribute is that? It is becoming increasingly interesting. The admiration in Prion's eyes was soon replaced by determination; a swift resolution is necessary. The Saint Violet Academy is filled with experts, and if time drags on, unforeseen changes may occur
As far as the eye can see, it is a sea of people... Sweat drips down, and I wonder if I have made a mistake; this place does not resemble an enrollment office at all, but rather looks more like a ticket pre-sale point for the World Cup final
In Prion's eyes sparkled a glimmer of appreciation, how interesting, a boy of seventeen or eighteen actually possesses the secret skills that warriors dream of. It is a pity that he truly should not be with the princess
Congratulations, you have been accepted. The salary is 1 gold coin for every 3 hours. Do you have any questions
Warriors possessing this attribute can utilize distinctive skills that resonate with it, which are different from those of mages of the same type, yet exhibit certain similarities. In short, warriors endowed with fighting spirit are undoubtedly synonymous with mastery.
Oh, I just attended an interview and found a job
...
The face of Prion reflects admiration; this young man possesses great potential. Unfortunately, he should not approach the princess
Upon thinking of this, Han Yu felt a chill run down his spine and quickly heightened his vigilance
Han Yusi did not notice the change in the other person's emotions: "I want to ask, why are there so many people in the college admissions? The number is astonishingly excessive."
"How is that possible?" The girl looked at Han Yu as if she were gazing at an alien, scrutinizing him from head to toe several times before exclaiming, "Princess Meixilu, Miss Yuelingna, and Atina are collectively known as the three great beauties of Shuiyun Star. How could you possibly not have heard of them?"
After coming out, Han Yu breathed in the fresh air and was just thinking about finding a place to have a big meal to reward himself when a familiar voice came from beside him: "Hey, Han Yu."
The environment is better than imagined, over 30 square meters, suitable for two people to live in. In the center of the bedroom, there is a large crystal ball that can receive more than 70 television programs, along with a strange box, nearly one meter tall, which stores magical frozen air and light elements. Its function is similar to that of an air conditioner on Earth
Quiet, speechless, everyone knows that Saint Violet Academy is renowned for its open atmosphere and diverse teaching methods, yet it is unexpected to conduct entrance examinations in such a manner... It is indeed somewhat of a farce
The number of jobs available to students is inherently limited, and with classes to attend, they cannot stray too far from the campus. Therefore, Han Yu decided to look for opportunities within the university grounds. As the highest institution of the federation, even in the capital where land is extremely valuable, Saint Violet spans over 12,000 acres, featuring supermarkets, restaurants, and tea houses, providing a chance to see if he might be fortunate enough to find a suitable job. Although such jobs are unlikely to pay much, given the current circumstances, he has little choice and should be able to manage by spending carefully.
No need, I will naturally find you
No matter how many times, the result remains the same Han Yu did not hesitate at all, as what she hated the most was being threatened
Although I am fundamentally on a different level from those two and cannot be compared to them, a little bit of jealousy is still inevitable for a girl
"I’m just joking, I don’t know!" Han Yu scratched his head and said, "I really don’t know those two people!"
Arriving at the northern area of the campus, Han Yu gasped at the luxurious buildings before him. Truly, it was the Lorin-Fane family, a grand display of wealth. Although he had not deliberately sought to learn more, he had absorbed enough over the past few days to have some understanding of the two beautiful women he was about to become "classmates" with.
What are you doing here
Boom
I apologize, but it is my freedom to choose whom to befriend, and I am not accustomed to having strangers meddle in my affairs
Why?
On September 12, the last day for enrollment registration, Han Yu was strolling through the campus. However, he was not idly passing time; rather, he was seeking a job. There was no choice, as all the money he had was spent on tuition, amounting to three hundred gold coins for the year. It was almost akin to being robbed
"Who are Princess Meihiru and Miss Yuelingna?" Han Yu scratched his head, feeling perplexed.
Is that so? That is truly unfortunate
After waiting for nearly an hour, it was finally Han Yu's turn. However, at that moment, a two-meter-tall orc, relying on his strong physique, attempted to cut in line and directly punched him away. Damn, he was also a combat and magic type; if he got pushed out, the instructor would surely be furious enough to spit blood.
Kleian remained silent. As the favored princess of the Mingyue Empire, she had always been oblivious to the concept of money. Was the tuition fee of 300 gold coins considered expensive? A small accessory on her person seemed to be worth more than that amount.
While Yuelingna was studying at Saint Violet, she also expanded her business here. In fact, she was not studying Business Administration at the academy, as she was already a master in this field, and the teachers at the academy could not teach her anything.
Peng
Indeed, while Saint Violet Academy is excellent, the tuition fees are prohibitively expensive. If I do not find something to do, I fear I might starve.
On the second day, Irina had work and needed to take a spaceship back. However, before leaving, she had already drawn a detailed map of the route to the academy. Han Yu got up early and dressed neatly to arrive at Saint Violet Academy.
Casado and Prion exchanged a glance, somewhat surprised. Although St. Violet Academy has always been very safe, they did not dare to be careless regarding the princess. They quietly followed behind to protect her, and in order not to affect Her Highness's freedom, they had been very cautious. However, they did not expect to be noticed by the young man beside them.
Alright, then congratulations to everyone, you have all been admitted to Saint Violet Academy
