Chapter 232: Chapter 192. School Starts (8000 Words Goal Achieved!)_2

Trait (2): Your body harbors the sacrificial fire of Shenzhu Village. Low-level vengeful spirits and mid-level vengeful spirits will not be able to harm you. Likewise, you will not be able to acquire grievances from spirits of the above levels.

Trait (3): Your body harbors the Soul Summoning Flower. All your skills related to aura and Spiritual Power will be perpetually upgraded by one level, and your total aura will always increase by 60.

Remaining skill points: 12.5.

Remaining items: Voodoo Doll x3.

The overall physical values are no longer increasing as quickly as in the beginning.

This is expected, after all, a value seven times that of an average person is already quite terrifying.

The comprehensive physical value here represents not only strength and speed but also nerve reflex speed, cognitive ability, and dynamic vision among others.

It’ll likely be quite challenging to advance one level later on.

Beichuan Si doesn’t mind.

"Let the chips fall where they may," a sevenfold physical value is enough for now. While it’s good to increase strength, it’s better to fully assimilate what one currently possesses before continuing to enhance it.

The aura increased from 172 to 190, meaning those five spirits provided a total of 18 aura points, an average of 3.6 each, which is quite decent.

Besides that, there were also generous skill point rewards.

12.5 skill points.

Beichuan Si hasn’t yet thought of a good enhancement plan, so keeping them for emergencies isn’t bad either.

"And... school is starting soon."

Beichuan Si raised his eyebrows.

He left home on February 11th, stayed in Yuchuan for three days, and today is February 14th, tomorrow will be the 15th.

Tomorrow, Beichuan Si needs to go to school to complete the registration and pay the fees.

Kyubei Private High School, being a private high school, has much higher tuition fees compared to public ones.

This is also why many people prefer attending public high schools because the tuition fees are significantly lower than private high schools.

With rich teaching resources and robust educational capabilities, Kyubei Private High School charges a hefty fee including tuition and activity fees, totaling at least 1.1 million yen per year, not to mention the entrance fee, tuition, and activity fee for Beichuan Huili.

Adding both up roughly comes to about 3 million yen.

This hefty tuition is why, in some Japanese dramas, you often see people giving up opportunities for their younger siblings, opting to work instead of attending school due to financial constraints.

However, Beichuan Si just happens to have 3 million yen, acquired from resolving two issues with Hirakawa Ichiro. (I previously made a mistake and wrote 10 million yen, but have now corrected it.)

If Beichuan’s mother working overseas really can’t come up with this amount, Beichuan Si can cover the shortfall.

But doing so would leave Beichuan Si without any money again.

In fact, Beichuan’s mother had been in contact with Beichuan Si and Beichuan Huili over the past two months. When it comes to dealing with his parents, Beichuan Si doesn’t slack at all, reporting recent life conditions and asking about their health.

Even though he is cold by nature, that’s only towards strangers; he still holds respect for his original parents.

"No matter what, my sister’s education is paramount," Beichuan Si stroked his chin.

A person can’t let money become an insurmountable problem.

Worst comes to worst, he’ll just host a couple of advertisements on his Urban Supernatural Tales homepage. The money will naturally follow.

In fact, Beichuan Si has many avenues to earn money. Not to mention exorcism, just his physical condition alone would qualify him as an ace hitter, catcher, or pitcher in any baseball team.

Indeed, as long as he is willing, he is the ace player wherever he goes.

But with that may come media attention trying to coin some outrageous nicknames like "Cold-faced Demon King," "Golden Right Hand," or "Tomorrow’s Star of the Baseball Field."

Beichuan Si never doubts the level of ’Chuunibyou’ of this country’s people.

"Let’s go back to sleep first, tomorrow go to school early to pay the fees, and also help Hui Li acclimate to the new environment."

Beichuan Si was already decided, no longer hesitating, and walked toward the inn.

...

The next day, Beichuan Si quietly boarded the public bus and left Yuchuan Town.

He took the bus to the bus station, then transferred to a short-distance bus, spending an hour in total to return to Tokyo.

Beichuan Si first went to the bank to check his account balance and noticed a large deposit.

Not more, not less—exactly 3 million yen from his mother’s account, designated for tuition fees.

Beichuan Si rubbed his temples, and without much thought, he returned the 3 million yen transfer.

In a way, he is not worried about food or drink; Beichuan Huili is growing up healthy, and keeping those 3 million yen himself serves no significant purpose.

Rather than doing that, why not give the three million yen back to Beichuan’s mother who is struggling alone abroad.

Money can be earned again, but health is the most important.

After transferring the money, Beichuan Si took out his mobile phone and sent a text message to Beichuan’s mother.

A very simple few words.

"Family safe, don’t worry, take care of your health."

After doing all this, he glanced at the payment day for Kyubei High School and transferred the money in his card to the school’s account.

After a series of processes, Beichuan Si finally completed all the payment procedures.

By the time Beichuan Si finished everything and was heading home, it was already ten o’clock.

Walking along the streets of the Bunkyo District, Beichuan Si saw many students in brand new uniforms heading to Kyubei High to enroll.

These students radiated youthful vigor, and it wasn’t an exaggeration to say they were looking forward to "pink high school life."

Beichuan Si headed straight home.

But before he even reached the front door, he heard a familiar voice—

"Huili! Hurry up! It’s the start of the new term, and I’ll show you around Kyubei High."

Beichuan Si opened the door, just in time to see Shen Gu Mirai in a spring uniform and a flustered Beichuan Huili scrambling out of the living room.

But right now, Beichuan Huili’s appearance was quite disheveled.

Not only had she tied her small tie incorrectly, but her hair was also a mess. What’s worse, Beichuan Huili even put her little leather shoes on the wrong feet, hurrying frantically around the room.

Then... she saw Beichuan Si, lugging a travel shoulder bag, wearing a light blue backpack, and expressionless.

Honestly, at that moment, Beichuan Huili’s small heart skipped a beat,

but unexpectedly, Beichuan Si didn’t scold Beichuan Huili; he just stared at her with profound, meaningful eyes for a long time until she felt chills all over before he finally turned his gaze to Shen Gu Mirai.

"Shen Gu."

"Here!"

Shen Gu Mirai’s body stiffened instantly.

"What happened?"

"Um... there was a little mishap in the preparations, just a tiny little mishap..." Shen Gu Mirai gestured with her index and thumb crossed.

A tiny mishap?

Beichuan Si shook his head and then changed into his slippers.

As he walked upstairs, he said, "Wait a moment, I’m also going."

"Going to Kyubei with us?"

"Nonsense. I’m going to check the class divisions."

Beichuan Si responded matter-of-factly.

He went back to his room, put everything down, and after advising Nishijou Kelian not to be too naughty, he left her be.

He took out his spring uniform from the wardrobe, got dressed, and tidied up in front of the mirror before heading downstairs.

The whole process took only five minutes.

As he came down the stairs, Beichuan Huili had finally managed to tidy herself up.

Unlike the winter uniform’s gray, blue, and white colors, Kyubei High’s spring uniform was primarily navy blue, with the girls sporting a light gray school tie at the chest and a white and navy striped collar around the neck, giving the navy blue long skirts a somewhat retro feel.

The boys wore navy blue trousers and long-sleeve uniforms, the snugly tailored fit highlighting their basic body shapes.

Beichuan Huili and Shen Gu Mirai looked different, but thanks to their good foundations, their uniforms gave them an exceptionally cute appearance.

Shen Gu Mirai’s eyes lit up, and after sizing up Beichuan Si, she cheerfully said alongside him:

"Mr. Temple looks so handsome! It really does feel like a high school vibe."

"I am a high school student," Beichuan Si glanced at her.

"Hehe, right you are," Shen Gu Mirai grinned and nodded: "Let’s go, Mr. Temple, little sister Huili."

"Okay."

Today—school started.
