Chapter 2522 The Inherited College

"Actually, we don't need to exaggerate the power of the 'Hero of Moon Bay'. No matter how strong he is, what if he is stronger? If the three unexpected guests hadn't really accepted the invitation this time, the strongest ring warlock wouldn't have been able to withstand it. A blow from the gods.”

Shade leaned against the counter and said. Old John nodded in agreement, seeing that Shade did not want to talk about the chosen one:

"Because of this, it is necessary to invite those guests. This era is becoming more and more chaotic, so he uses these extraordinary means that most people can understand, or are forced to understand. Detective, if you know that hero, please Let me congratulate him, we cannot live without him in this era.”

"I will."

Shade pointed to the small box on the counter:

"Then how about the cost of this information be deducted from the cost of this relic?"

"Of course, or I'll give you an extra amount of money as compensation?"

"It won't be necessary this time."

Shade put the box into his pocket:

"But Father John, if you feel you owe me, don't forget to help me keep an eye out for relics and special coins that increase my luck. Oh, and you can also help me look for if there are any abnormal events related to 'time' that are happening recently. occur."

The old man behind the counter blinked:

"Time? You mean detective, are you sure you want to be in such a hurry?"

"After all, time won't stop waiting for me."

"I understand, but at least there is no such news so far. If the hero needs help, the Priory can provide a full range of services. However, can you be sure of the time?"

"It was revealed by the distinguished guest who just left."

"Well, it must be time. If it is time, something may have happened, but we can't detect it."

Treat things that cannot be noticed as not existing, otherwise you will cause yourself trouble in vain. [Guiding Light Hermitage] will next help Shade look for relevant clues, but Shade instinctively feels that it may take them some time to get the results.

Shade then returned home directly, and as expected, Miss Denister had already sent a reply through the poem manuscript page.

She also knew that Shade might not be available at any time, so she agreed to meet again after lunch.

Therefore, when Shade's projection appeared in the library of St. Byrons, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

The students who helped arrange the ceremony left quietly. Just as Shad wanted to say hello to Miss Denister, he looked around in surprise:

"Has the college library been renovated during the summer vacation? It's really beautiful here~"

The original library floor was so clean that it was almost reflective, and the bookshelves around the open space below the planetarium were neatly arranged. It gave off a study atmosphere at first glance, a classical-style library layout.

What Shade saw this time was that the slowly rotating planetarium above his head seemed to have been re-polished. The original normal slate floors had all been replaced with ceramic tiles, and each tile was translucent and the tiles could be seen. The strange scene below looks like a sea of ​​stars.

This results in the entire library now seeming to be in a silver-purple night sky, but the light does not affect reading.

The surrounding bookshelves haven't changed much, but thick pale yellow candles are floating neatly above the bookshelves. Shade's sense of smell, which was weakened by the projection state, smelled the smell of beeswax in the air, which was the smell of expensive soothing candles after burning.

Looking into the distance, the tables, ancient golems, modern artworks, stargazing equipment, etc. placed in the library have all been renovated. The somewhat curved ceiling above the library was originally a huge star map. Now the star map It's still there, but there are more subtle stars than before.

The silver-blue light flashes in the star map at the frequency of breathing. Looking up is even more shocking than looking at the real starry sky.

As for the furniture in the open space used as Miss Denister's office, of course they have also changed. Although it is still a sofa set with a low coffee table, the original red fabric sofa has been changed into a large solid wood antique sofa.

The armrests have elegant lines and exquisite carvings. The back of the sofa is high, curves like an arch, and has oval and diamond inlays interspersed with red and yellow gemstones.

The seat and back of the sofa are covered in silk, and the new cushions are painted with various famous buildings in St. Byrons.

"Renovation? This is of course to welcome the arrival of the two principals."

While Shade looked around, Miss Denister, who was holding a porcelain tea cup, said:

"And not only the library, but every corner of the college has been decorated. You bought us enough time to decorate it to welcome the two principals, but if there were two more days, what you see now would probably be More gorgeous."

She patted the soft sofa gently:

"About this time yesterday, Principal Feilianna was sitting in this position, talking to us about the construction of the library. Now that I think about it, I still can't believe it."

"It must have been very lively yesterday, right?"

"It's very lively. I can't remember the last time it was so lively in the academy."

She looked quite honored:

"We didn't let too many people know about the arrival of the two principals, but at least the deans of each college were present. Although the selection of student representatives was a little more troublesome, Miss Siem Nord performed well.

Principal Feliana and Principal Drago are really approachable, you know? Principal Feliana said personally that we ran the school very well, even surpassing that of Professor Pigman, the principal of St. Byrons in their time. At that time, his eyes were red. "

Although Shade was curious about how Miss Denist was behaving at that time, he did not ask:

"Miss Feliana and Fiona have really good personalities. Fiona even makes breakfast for us every morning these days."

He also briefly described what the two ladies had been doing at his place these days. Of course, I didn't mention the little girl with the big tail doing something every night.

However, Shade mentioned that their expenses were actually not much, but Miss Denister did not let Shade re-hand over the remaining 10,000 gold pounds:

"One day is not enough to visit every corner of St. Byrons today, but the roads that we walked with the founders of the college are enough for our generation to remember. Regarding topics such as the construction of the college, you probably Not very interested, let’s talk about something else——

The principals did not mention anything about the Fifth Era during their visit, but Principal Feliana personally admitted the relationship between the ‘God Caller’ and her in front of us. "

Xia De opened his mouth, feeling very moved, but his tone was calm:

"She wants you to take care of the Godcaller, right?"

"Well, you probably misunderstood. Principal Feliana didn't say that the Godcaller was her apprentice. She said that you were hers."

The red-haired sorceress took a deep breath and didn't even notice that she forgot to replace "you" with "godcaller". It was obvious that she was under a lot of pressure to say this:

"She said you were her lover."

"Um?"

"Don't pretend that you are innocent, Shade. I don't think a respected lady like Principal Myrna Feliana would joke about such a thing."

The red-haired sorceress looked at him inquiringly:

"So you never told me the truth? Shade, are you really her lover?"

"She" laughed in her ear, as if she wanted to see how Shade would respond, and Shade explained:

"I am Teacher Feliana's apprentice. As for my lover, Miss Danist, do you think it is better for me to be her apprentice, or my so-called lover?"

Asking questions in an attempt to retreat made the red-haired sorceress speechless for a moment. This was Shade's unique conversational skill.

She was unwilling to answer this question head-on, because no matter how she answered, it would look strange, so she simply said something else:

"Shad, you really surprised me. Whether it's an apprentice or a lover, Miss Feliana and Principal Drago said that they would not interfere with the St. Byrons Comprehensive College of our time, let alone be honest. Let us help the Godcaller."

He raised his eyebrows as he spoke:

"But they also said that a lot of things happened in the early days of St. Byrons. Because of all the stories of the previous era, in short, the 'Godcaller' actually also has a part of the ownership of St. Byrons, and it cannot be diluted. of ownership.

The principal, Professor Pigman, confirmed through the principal's authority that this was indeed true. So although it is ownership and not management rights, and you cannot directly influence the academy's decision-making, 53% of the land and property in Academy City under our feet does belong to you.

Guess how much these assets would be worth if converted into gold pounds? "

the sorceress asked with a smile.

"Well that's not important."

Shade did not waste time guessing how big a piece of property this was. The source of this ownership should be that he and Fiona worked together to obtain this piece of land in the far north:

"I don't understand. Since the principal, Professor Pigman, can check the ownership of the college, why did he only find out about it now?"

"Because even the principal and librarian with the highest management authority cannot know all the secrets of this ancient college. Probably only Principal Myrna Feliana who founded this place is the real owner and owner of St. Byrons. managers.

At present, the authority of the past presidents is limited to checking whether someone has ownership and management rights of the college. It is not possible to directly check who holds all the ownership and management rights. "

Miss Denister gave Shade a few seconds to think about what she had said:

"In fact, even now, the president can only determine the ownership of 97% of the college management rights and 24% of the college ownership. Of course, the latter does not include your 53%. There were detailed details about these two parts of power in the early days of the college's establishment. Inheritance and inheritance regulations, so the temporarily unknown part must be inherited by someone, just like you.”

"Isn't it strange? The ownership of most of the management rights and ownership of the college is still unknown. Under such circumstances, the college can continue to operate normally?"

Shade asked.
