Magic Academy Bans Harem

Chapter 180: Senior Pigeon
"So, they just appeared right in front of you like that?"

"almost."

In the most prosperous East City District of Spring City, Ritas, who had separated from the "Carrier Pigeon", was chatting casually with the Bathing Goddess who had just come online not long ago.

According to "people" like Pigeon, this day was Ritas's probationary day as a new employee of the "Grand Ending Company".

Although Ritas didn't know what to do as an intern in this strange company, he followed along anyway.

"That day, perhaps because the moon was very close to the ground, the outline of the full moon was particularly huge. And they were on the top floor of the second-story house, as if they were carrying the full moon on their backs."

Ritas recalled what happened a few days ago and described it with the goddess of bathing.

"Under the moon, the unicorn, the carrier pigeon, the upright black cat, and the tin man kept clapping at me. I have to say, it was a very bizarre scene. The sense of weirdness should have far exceeded the imagination of the goddess of the bath."

"Tsk, how should I put it? It's very strange. Although they are both weird, if you encounter the 'Trickery Ceremony', you will appear to be the victim. But when you encounter the 'Darkborn', it feels like you are also a patient. Then what? Why are they applauding you?"

Regarding the incident of Ritas encountering the "Dark Descendants" on the night of the family banquet, the Bathing Goddess had also heard a brief report before, but not as detailed as it is now.

"They are congratulating me for officially becoming a member of the Darkin."

As Ritas spoke, he took out something like a sticker from the backpack on his waist.
"There seem to be two main conditions for becoming a formal member of the Darkin. One is to awaken the power of the Sin Blood through the 'Mark of Sin Blood'. The other is for a person with Sin Blood to defeat a member with a Sinner Number and take his place. Of these two conditions, one only needs to be met."

The sticker that Ritas took out had four bright red numbers "0102" on it.
"Since I haven't awakened my power yet, I can't reveal the number, so they let me stick this on first."

".They are quite considerate."

The bathing goddess who always left Ritas speechless also felt speechless.

"So, the number before 'Abandoned' was 102? Hmm, that would put it at around th place in an organization full of criminals? I don't know if that's high or low."

"The existence of at least a hundred criminals who worship the blood of sin is never a good thing."

Although in front of Ritas, the "Abandoned Color", that is, the young woman named Ginny, had basically no room for resistance. However, her abilities were obviously not a small threat in ordinary society.

Moreover, doing evil is not just about destruction and killing. Ginny's power is also more suitable for other places.

This was also demonstrated by the fact that the Guard Knights were helpless against Ginny throughout the entire summer.

Therefore, if all these "Dark Elves" were to gather together, it would be quite dangerous.

Of course, the prerequisite is that they can be gathered together.

"And then what? They were clapping, and you clapped along, and then joined in?"

The Bathing Goddess continued to ask.

"Then, I recalled that the Bath Goddess didn't seem to want me to join the Darkin."

"Ah, I was just saying that. Don't worry about it. Although, I still think the concept of 'Dark Elves' is extremely low."

"But, I thought the Bathing Goddess was probably just talking, so I didn't take it too seriously."

"Hello!"

"But I do think it's okay to join the Dark Elves or not. Rather, it's the Dark Elves who have been bothering me."

As Ritas said this, he finally understood when his contempt for the "People of the Stars" began the day before.

Although there is no direct connection, his disdain for the "Dark Elves" has somewhat spread to the "Star People".

On the one hand, the organization of the Darkin is loose, so even if you sneak in, you probably won't get much useful intelligence.

On the other hand, the Darkin's organizational philosophy, although it hides the idea of subverting the entire world, but how ridiculous this idea is, you can find it as long as you think about it deeply.

Don't say that it is impossible at all. Even if there is a one in a trillion chance, the Darkin will subvert the entire world and establish a new order.

Then wouldn’t their new world be made up entirely of the descendants of sinners and sinners, a world where everyone does evil?

In a world like that, there would be no need for anyone to fight against the Darkin; they would destroy themselves.

Therefore, no matter how things develop, the Dark Elves are destined to be an organization that will perish. Even if they are left alone, they will disappear sooner or later for various reasons.

It is better to say that in the "Star Pattern" game world, the fact that the "Dark Descendants" in some routes can actually succeed is an abstract thing.

"So, I took out a sin seal and asked them, 'Do you have any more of this thing?'"

"ha?"

The Bathing Goddess had imagined many ways that Ritas would respond, but she had never thought that he would do it this way.

"Among them, the Tin Man seems to be a small leader. So, it was him who negotiated with me. He said that the thing is very valuable in the organization, and for their precarious Third Market Development Group, it is also a precious thing for recruiting promising new people."

"Why does he seem a little pitiful? How do you respond?"

"I said, 'So you do still have it, right?'"

“Hey, hey, hey!”

Although, since Ritas did have a few more blood moon marks in his hands, the Goddess of Bath was already mentally prepared.

But after learning that this was how Ritas "asked" for it, she still couldn't hold herself back.

"I guess he gave it to you in the end. So what happened after that? Did you join?"

"Well, not yet. I took the Blood Moon Mark and looked at him for a while, then asked, 'Anything else?'"

"."

"He said that it's really gone this time. That thing is really precious. Their leader had a hard time getting it from the organization."

"And then? You should really let him go this time."

The Bathing Goddess didn't know why she would use the word "let it go" to describe an organization of sinners.

"And I said, 'Just jump a few times on the spot.'"

"Xiao Li!!! I can now confirm that you are completely blackmailing me!"

"As a result, as soon as the tin man started to jump, his body started to clang non-stop. So, under my scrutiny, he finally handed over the last Blood Moon Mark he had hidden. Tsk, he's really dishonest. I can only say that although he's just a marginal member, he's still a member of a criminal organization after all."

"That's not the question!"

In the end, amid the complaints of the Bathing Goddess, Ritas "unknowingly" became a member of the "Dark Indigen".

For Ritas, although he didn't think much of the "Darkborn" organization, he was still very interested in the people who had been writing to him and the so-called great sinner "Varanger". Moreover, as long as he didn't use suspicious things like the Blood Mark on himself, Ritas didn't worry about being held hostage by the "Darkborn". Therefore, "Grand Ending Company" became a small sideline that he could quit at any time.

As for the Bathing Goddess, after careful recollection, she discovered that what happened to Ritas, the Tin Man and others was entirely based on his own narration, and she couldn't really say what actually happened.

Therefore, she still didn't know whether Ritas was really fearless and blackmailed the members of the "Dark Ethnic Group". Or, as always, he would occasionally show his sense of humor.

"Hello, how's the situation around here? Newbie."

After staying in the East City for a while, the pigeon, who had been away for some unknown reason, reunited with Ritas. After the pigeon asked questions, it found that Ritas did not respond, but just stared at it with wide eyes. A somewhat flattering smile immediately appeared on his face that he had "borrowed" from Blake.

"Please don't mind, Mr. White Pope. I was the last one to join the company in the market development team, so I've always wanted to ask questions to newcomers. I don't mean to give you orders or anything."

Faced with the pigeon's explanation, Ritas had a rather subtle look on his face, not actually putting on airs, but just thinking about what else he could say besides "ordinary".

For some reason, the strange-looking dark descendants of the Third Market Development Group, including the Tin Man, who now appeared before him, seemed to be particularly afraid of him.

"I don't mind, Senior Pigeon."

"Predecessors"

The carrier pigeon seemed so innocent that it showed all its thoughts on its face, with a face full of secret joy.

"So, what exactly is our company going to do in this area today? And what exactly do we need to do? Senior Pigeon."

The pigeon, who was called "senior" twice in a row, probably felt that he had to act like a senior, so he coughed twice and said seriously,

"Today, a very distinguished customer of the company has issued a commission. Therefore, the commission will be carried out by Sinner No. 0009, the director of our company's sales headquarters, 'Pyrotechnician'. However, newcomers don't have to worry too much. In important commissions like this, the responsibilities we need to undertake are very limited. Therefore, the complicated matters are left to the superiors, and we only need to complete the assigned tasks!"

As the carrier pigeon spoke, he took out a stack of square pieces of paper and handed them to Ritas.

After a quick check, Ritas found that these pieces of paper were "business cards" that had become popular in some regional chambers of commerce in recent years. On the front of the business card, "Shengda Lumen Company" was written in large gold-plated letters, and on the back of the business card, "The most grand Lumen Lumen" was written in smaller letters.

After flipping through it several times, Ritas frowned slightly.

So what exactly does this “Grand Ending Company” do?

Before, when I asked the Tin Man, the Carrier Pigeon and others, they just said that they would understand after today's internship was over.

However, he might understand the significance of the "Shanda Lunar New Year Company" after today, but what can people who see these business cards understand?
You know, these business cards are made very delicately, so the cost will definitely be high if the quantity is large.

"Well, Mr. White Pope, don't worry. All company employees do small jobs like this during their internship. Moreover, the internship period is very short. Therefore, as long as the internship period is over, with your nearly double-digit number of strengths when you just joined the company, you will definitely be able to get an important job soon and quickly be promoted to the leader of the market development team. No, becoming the director of the sales department is not a dream!"

Seeing Ritas's expression, the carrier pigeon thought that he was dissatisfied with his job of distributing business cards, so he immediately put away his senior's posture and flattered him with soft words.

"."

So this spineless guy is really a member of the "Dark Elves"?
Ritas looked at the pigeon speechlessly.

As for the other party's suggestion of becoming the head of the sales department, Ritas thought it would be better to forget it.

Although it is still unknown what Shanda Luomu Company does, Ritas has a preliminary understanding of the company's structure.

The company's president is concurrently held by the leader of the "Darkborn", the "Wanderer". However, he is just a figurehead and never asks about the company's affairs. Therefore, the actual head of the company is the vice president.

Under the vice president are three major departments. Among them, the sales department, which includes the first, second and third market development groups, is one of the three major parts and the most powerful department.

Therefore, becoming the head of the sales department almost means becoming the leader of "Shanda Ending Company" or even "Dark Elves".

"By the way, what is Senior Pigeon's criminal number?"

Thinking of the ranking method within the Darkin organization, Ritas asked with some curiosity.

The carrier pigeon hesitated for a long time before it blushed and shook its head.

"That's right. Senior Pigeon's ability doesn't seem like it can snatch numbers from other number holders. Besides, it's unlikely that you have 'sinful blood' flowing in your body."

In other words, although Xingge is a formal employee of Shanda Luomu Company, he is not a formal member of the Darkin.

By definition, similar to the perverted trio?

"Even if you are Mr. White Pope, you can't be so sure that there is no sinful blood flowing in my body!"

After hesitating for a while, the pigeon plucked up the courage to express its dissatisfaction to Ritas.

"You are a dove"

"What's wrong with pigeons? I think it's not good to judge others based on their status, gender, or race. Especially when it comes to the blood flowing in the body, which is something that will never be seen on the surface!"

"So you're a pigeon!"

Ritas had never encountered a debate like this where he could easily win just by repeating a sentence.

After muttering something like "pigeons can commit crimes too" for a while, the carrier pigeon finally succumbed to the fact that there have never been any "guilty pigeons" in human society.

But Ritas, who won the debate, did not feel happy at all.

He was even more confused about what this "third market development group" was all about.

Whether it is a carrier pigeon, a unicorn or a black cat, it is impossible for human blood to flow in their bodies, let alone sinful blood. As for the last Tin Man, his body is empty and there is only iron skin. He is not even a living being.

Their existence is incompatible with the philosophy of the "Dark Enchantress" organization itself.

What's more, what puzzles Ritas even more is what system of power is used by this group of strange beings?
Since they are essentially unable to use the power of the "Sin Seal", their abilities do not come from the Sin Seal system. And according to Ritas's observation, there are no particularly active magic particles around them.

If it weren't for the fact that in the past six months, Ritas had been fighting against the "Order of the Trickery", coming into contact with the star patterns, seeing John use strange powers, and encountering mysterious wizards and other beings.

Otherwise, the source of this power, which he could not figure out no matter how hard he tried, might have driven him crazy.

"Senior Pigeon."

"Yes, yes, I will probably be a messenger pigeon for low-level employees for the rest of my life."

The carrier pigeon realized that it could not have sinful blood, and murmured in self-abandonment.

".I want to ask, does Senior Pigeon have to transform into his current form?"

"Well, now that you mention it, it's time to make a change. I just discovered that there are quite a few sneaky guards hiding around here."

The carrier pigeon said with a worried look on his face.

"Is there such a thing?"

Ritas pretended to be surprised.

To be honest, those guards and the Knight Guard were all called by him.

Since he knew clearly what the "Dark Descendants" would do in Dongcheng District today, he couldn't just sit back and respond.

"Hehe, I thought that today was my first time bringing a new member for an apprenticeship, so I wanted to wear some decent formal attire, so I chose the leader of the Guard Knights. But after thinking about it carefully, it's still a little too ostentatious."

The carrier pigeon said this, made an "excuse me" gesture, and entered a hidden alley on the side.

When the carrier pigeon appeared again, he had transformed into a middle-aged man with ordinary features and no distinctive memory points.

Watching the pigeon display its strength, and then recalling the evil spirit he inadvertently revealed when he called the posture that belonged to others "clothes".

Ritas, who had always been quite relaxed, began to tense up.
