High School of Demon Hunting

Chapter 644: Chapter 313: Causality Turning Curse_1

"Professor, why does the school choose such an extreme approach to education?"

"If we are really kidnapped by demons next time and everyone thinks it’s the school’s test, wouldn’t that be a grave mistake?"

"Also, Professor, how can a dead person be reborn?"

"Although my divination academic performance is not excellent, I truly felt that Blue Bird and Xiao Xiao had no life left in them!"

"Also, those demons, why are they always chasing me? Is it because of the bloody bruise in my right eye? I don’t have any weird stuff on me..."

"And what about the black tiger? That black tiger, professor, is not a demon according to Mr. Thomas, but I can feel a strange aura emanating from it, definitely not that of a pure wizard... It also has two blood-red eyes!"

After hearing the professor’s previous explanations, Zheng Qing got even more questions popping up in his heart, he couldn’t wait and started bombarding the professor with all of them.

Faced with his machine gun-like questions, Old Yao chomped on his pipe, replying only after a few puffs of smoke:

"Only through loss can you know to cherish."

"Only when you confront death can you truly live."

"Only by firmly remembering these, can you have the courage to fight against stronger demons."

"And these things, by telling you in the classroom, by taking notes, cannot be learned."

"Just like when you faced a horde of demons before, there were only two choices -- kill them or be eaten by them."

"It’s a bit tough, yes."

"But this choice is rather simple, isn’t it?"

"When facing demons, never hope they’re a bunch of transformed boguts. On seeing a demon, the correct reaction is to throw a bunch of curses at them... If there are too many demons, run for your life."

Old Yao’s words had profound meanings at times, simple and straightforward at others, making Zheng Qing continuously nod in agreement.

"As for the abnormalities you mentioned..."

"The right eye is indeed just a bruise, that’s without a doubt. There are medical records in the school infirmary, with detailed examination records that you can check."

"The reason those demons are chasing you, perhaps only the demons know."

"After all, to the demons, any wizard is a very delicious meal... If you have any doubts about your blood, you can consult Professor Montreya, he’s an expert on blood researchers at the school, and has enough authority."

Zheng Qing nodded, secretly noting down the name of Professor Montreya.

He had a slight impression of this name - a few weeks ago, when Zheng Qing and Lin Guo had encountered the Kappa Monster by the lake, he had seen the professor. He reportedly was in charge of advanced magic text courses for the senior grades and even had his own lab at the Magic Research Institute.

Ever since he followed Su Shijun for a tour around one of the labs in the Magic Research Institute, the young state-funded student had gained enough knowledge of those senior wizards with their own standalone labs.

"Professor, could you write me a recommendation?" he looked eagerly at Old Yao.

It is extremely rude — and the chances of a professor agreeing are very low — to bother a senior lecturer of the school rashly. However, if one could present a ’note’ from a dean to visit, the chances of success are greatly increased.

"Me?" Old Yao took a glance at the young Wizard, huffed and said, "Go to Little Su for this, she has a high position, and her family has good relations with Professor Montreya... Stop bothering the faculty for everything."

Little Su? Zheng Qing was startled for a moment, then blushed as he realized what Old Yao implied, tried to say something, but ended up being speechless.

"Don’t say that," Zheng Qing chuckled bitterly, glanced around nervously and muttered, "I’m scared of being beaten to death in the ditch..."

Old Yao exhaled a few smoke rings, shook his head, clucked his tongue, and regretfully said, "Look at you, you don’t have the vigor of a young man... Always dazed, are you not scared that Su Daxu will go after someone else?!"

Zheng Qing’s face turned pale at those words.

Although he did not know much about the power of a great wizard, he knew that great wizards could sense when someone mentioned them — which in religious terms could be called a ’miracle’ or ’retribution’ — naturally, Old Yao wasn’t pressured discussing Su Shijun this casually, but Zheng Qing was a different story.

If that beautiful lady thought that Zheng Qing was complaining about her behind her back in front of Old Yao, he might as well send a report to the school earlier and dig an appropriately sized pit in the back garden of the school and just get in.

"Professor, you haven’t explained how the dead can be reborn yet." Zheng Qing forcibly tried to change the subject.

Seeing the pale expression on the young wizard’s face, Old Yao finally stopped teasing him.

"Life and death is a big topic."

"If we only discuss today’s hunt, I can give you simple explanations."

The professor patted Zheng Qing’s shoulder, indicating, "Let’s walk and talk, we should not let others wait too long... Since you’ve mentioned the concepts of life and death, I’ll have to first explain to you about ’causality’."

"This is also the most important spell running through all stages of the freshman games."

"The Causality Turning Curse."

"This is a very profound and complex magic."

"In layman’s terms, every demon in this Freshman Hunting Ground (including the small banquet hall) has been bewitched by the school, and every student who entered the field has also been blessed by the Secret Garden Elf... Any student who is eaten within this range will ’turn around’ through the causality link of this spell and blessing, back to the safe area of the school..."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Qing couldn’t help but recall that mad puppet and rude old elf in the small banquet hall, shaking his head in disapproval.

He didn’t feel that the eerie words of that old elf were a blessing to him.

"...’Turn Around’ is not the same as you turning your head around. It is a very serious term in magical concepts and involves many senior concepts, so I won’t elaborate further here."

"So, in this Hunting Ground, you will truly face life and death, but there is no real life and death."

"Such amazing results naturally come with many limitations."

"For example, in terms of time, even with the joint effort of several senior wizards from the school, this spell can only last less than two hours. If it weren’t for the time acceleration in the Secret Garden, you all might not even get the chance to experience this magical spell."

"Or take the prey... On each demon in the Hunting Ground, the curse was drawn by the senior wizards of the school themselves to ensure that the students they eat can ’turn around’."

"That’s why many professors of the school are quite dissatisfied with that big black cat now..."

"It had a great fight and tore those ’expensive’ demons into pieces. The Committee Member of the Hunting Competition Committee at the grandstand was so enraged."
