Chapter 125: Chapter 123: The White Swan Song and Dance Troupe

...

Golden Academy boasts the top chefs of the Dan Dong Empire.

It gathers cuisines from various regions of the world along with traditional dishes that have been lost over time. Normally, students eat their meals here.

Cafeteria.

Proudly considering himself a gourmet, Lin Suo heads here after class. While his Cooking Skill is also Red Grade, it primarily stems from the simple, seafood-centric cuisine of Koster.

Another part comes from his family’s recipes.

Every time he arrives in a new place, exploring the unknown is the main theme of life and its pleasure.

Here, the cafeteria aunty’s hands don’t tremble; she simply serves the dishes.

However, the prices are not low.

Currently, Lin Suo only has about two hundred thousand Low Level Magic Stones to his name. He dares not spend them and only uses fake stones when cultivating in the Magic Medicine Garden or during his own practice.

Thus, he merely samples a few specialty dishes.

After eating them a few more times, he’ll be able to copy and cook them himself!

Within a small cubicle of the cafeteria.

Just as he was about to taste the Nice-style pan-fried cod, he sees through the latticed wooden partition to the scene on the other side.

Sea Queen Qina and... Maquire?

Lin Suo raises an eyebrow, eating while eavesdropping – an unexpected play, indeed.

"Qina, what do you want from me?"

Maquire looks like a bully, showing no courtesy to this exceptionally pitiful-looking pretty girl.

His family controls the Empire’s gold and silver bank, and his father is the financial minister—"Duke Desulom".

Known as the Duke of Disaster, a famous Great Wizard of the Heavenly Phenomenon School.

He’s also one of the five permanent human Great Wizards on the Padolon Continent.

If it were not for the nobility’s requirement to graduate from the academy, he would have been even stronger with one-to-one home teaching, but his family didn’t see it that way...

Thus, Maquire has always lived quite indulgently.

A Great Wizard above the Ninth Ring.

Amongst the human powers of the entire continent, visibly only five reside permanently, one of whom is the Duke of Disaster, my dad!

This reputation definitely makes him feel proud. Luckily, he was well-taught at home; although a bit arrogant in speech, he never acts unjustly or disastrously, even with a slight sense of inferiority seeking affirmation.

This was after the end of morning classes.

Lin Suo conducts a psychological assessment of a few very influential fellows and deals with them accordingly.

Qina is a typical "Lin Daiyu" type of frail beauty, looking so pitiable that nobody could speak harshly to her.

At this moment, she is bowing her head and twisting her toes, her cheeks flushed red.

"That... that... Maquire, could you help me with something?"

At her words, the corners of Maquire’s mouth twist into an unpleasant curve.

"Help you? We only met today, heh heh..."

Seeing this, Lin Suo narrows his eyes, could he have misjudged him?

With the Heart Seal to assist, that shouldn’t be the case.

Then, Maquire continued with the rest of his statement.

"Just beat up Jon Luer for me, and I’ll help you."

Lin Suo: (҂⌣̀_⌣́)! That’s it? My pants are... cough, I’ve prepared the peanuts, and that’s the story?

Jon Luer scored first in the class written test, ranking within the top ten amongst all first-year students, and number one among the commoner’s honor roll.

This ranking comes from the promotion exams from lower to upper grades.

Normally, it wouldn’t be something significant.

But Jon Luer is terribly weak in practical combat, ranking near the bottom.

Therefore, achieving such an honor but being a weakling is tantamount to humiliation on the ground for many noble children.

Consequently, first-year students resist Jon Luer.

Including Maquire.

Most know of Jon’s secret crush on Qina, and only a few truly understand Qina’s universally loving nature.

His private life, Maquire doesn’t care about.

If my beloved Goddess were to beat him up, Jon that kid definitely couldn’t handle it, and would challenge her to a duel.

This way, he could teach Jon a harsh lesson in front of everyone and bring fame to the Desulom surname again!

"Qina, as long as you agree to my terms, whatever you ask of me, I can solve it just by opening my mouth."

Qina bit her lips, her eyes rimmed red.

Her black shoulder-length hair framed her face, and the movement of her white slender legs rubbing against each other only stirred more pity.

Like a little kitten abandoned by people.

"But... but... Jon is my friend."

Maquire raised his eyebrows.

"I’ll give you two demands."

"Ah..."

"Three, and if you get any greedier, get out of my sight."

A money monk?

Lin Suo almost laughed out loud, but he was concerned about being discovered eavesdropping as a teacher, which would look bad.

"Then... then I agree..."

Qina couldn’t resist the temptation and still sold out her childhood friend.

Her answer sounded forced.

Maquire shook his head.

"Qina, you need to understand, you’re asking me for a favor, not me threatening you. This tone... haha, goodbye."

"Student Maquire! I accept the deal!"

"That’s more like it. This is a recording stone, record the process and give it to me."

Qina nodded and took the recording stone, starting to ask Maquire for a favor.

A moment later.

Maquire was a bit stunned.

"You want to join the Swan Song and Dance Troupe, just for that... alright, I agree to your first demand."

"The faster you act, the faster I will act."

"Okay."

The two didn’t even eat, they just left the dining hall booth, not knowing that it wasn’t soundproof.

Lin Suo crossed his arms and stroked his chin.

The Swan Song and Dance Troupe is a large club organization within the Golden Academy that encompasses all upperclassmen, with professors and teachers from the History, Elemental, and Summoning Departments.

It’s a quite broad type of academy association.

Using poetry and drama as a link, it allows wizards from different schools to put aside their preconceptions, gather together, and appreciate the performances.

At the moment.

Soon, about a hundred students from the Extreme Academy of the Ice Plain Empire will come to the Golden Academy as exchange students.

Each year level is distributed.

Exactly coinciding with the welcoming ceremony, a grand musical drama evening will be held.

Lin Suo didn’t know what Qina was thinking.

But as for Jon Luer, it would be good for him to be beaten up; he saw great potential in that guy and he shouldn’t fall at the hands of a woman.

Maquire also seemed interesting.

Could be listed in the important contacts list.

After a bit of delay, Lin Suo finished eating and immediately returned to the residential area; this giant lake, known as Elf Lake, hosts a group of Water Elves.

Lin Suo hasn’t seen any Elves but learned a bit of the Elf Language, broad knowledge acquisition, is a requirement he set for himself, as well as a necessary quality for a wizard.

Conveniently, the library of Golden Academy is unimaginably large, with a collection of over ten million books!

It could allow him to learn many obscure theories and knowledge he hasn’t touched before, simply a sacred place to brush up on his [Skill] level.

Upon returning home, he took some time to improve the house.

Also prepared some teaching tools, and started prepping for the afternoon class.

In the blink of an eye, two weeks passed.

Lin Suo had completely adapted to the life within the academy.
