The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　"You're going to argue with me about even this? Oh, hehehe!"

　"Oh ho ho ho!"

　"Oh ho ho ho!"

　……

　While the two little princesses nearly got into a fight, only Victoria remained completely unfazed.

Chapter 793

　After the initial surprise, Dark did not completely believe the words of the "Goddess of Wisdom." Although Ergane appeared very rational when she spoke, it was not impossible that she had given up on herself after understanding her own existence.

　Moreover, her words clearly lacked warmth.

　If we really follow her words and distinguish the relationship between the two based on "superior and inferior," then we will probably lose her trust very quickly.

　—Truly worthy of being called the "God of Wisdom," he laid a trap with just a few words!

　After calming down, Dak became wary of the "God of Wisdom".

　He suddenly realized that he had never really considered the "God of Wisdom" as a threat from the very beginning.

　In his subconscious mind, no matter how wise the "God of Wisdom" was, it was just a series of newly born consciousnesses that needed to be cared for like infants, rather than guarded against.

　He had experienced too many similar things, and subconsciously regarded the "God of Wisdom" as something like magical elves... or at most, something like Victoria.

　But his past experiences blinded him.

　Magical spirits don't automatically understand language and writing, or possess a certain level of common sense, immediately after gaining sentience.

　If you had to describe Ergani in one word, she would be truly "born with knowledge".

　Therefore, what follows is an unprecedented tug-of-war over Ergani's "loyalty"!

　Fortunately, he was not alone in facing the "god of wisdom".

　Professor Kazel, and everyone in the "Serpent of Wisdom," will be there to support us.

　……

　In a mere half-second, Darko Dimon's mind had already gone through a mental storm.

　He temporarily abandoned his idea of ​​immediately getting up and returning, and earnestly said to the "God of Wisdom," "You don't need to belittle yourself. I don't possess the ability to create consciousness out of thin air. Although your consciousness was bestowed upon you by me, I merely acted as a catalyst, prompting your soul to give birth to a new consciousness. Although you are not the original 'God of Wisdom,' you were still born from the soul of the 'God of Wisdom.' Although you are a new individual, it is not a case of possession. I hope you understand this."

　The "God of Wisdom" frowned, seemingly lost in some kind of contemplation.

　Dark spoke in a deep voice: "You've just been born, exploring the meaning of your existence—something that should be done by those who have a more mature understanding of the world. But you are the 'God of Wisdom,' born with innate knowledge and extraordinary comprehension. I don't object to your actions. But what I want to tell you is that you should look further ahead."

　The "god of wisdom" frowned even more deeply.

　Dak suddenly realized that there was a unique beauty in the way she was deep in thought.

　Perhaps we could find some mathematical paradoxes to help her further hone her thinking skills.

　How did she transform from a cool and intelligent literary girl into a melancholy and sorrowful one?

　"Click!" Dark put aside the thought for the moment and patiently waited for Ergani's response.

　He knew that his reasoning ability could never surpass that of the "God of Wisdom".

　As he himself said, Ergani was a new consciousness, but she was not a complete possessor. She was born from the soul of the "God of Wisdom" and was at least half of the "God of Wisdom".

　However, the reasoning ability of the "god of wisdom" may simply be too powerful.

　Ergane turned to stone completely after that.

　……

　Half an hour later, Dark looked at Ergani, who was still frowning and deep in thought, sighed slightly, and stood up from the sofa.

　Professor Cazell winked at him, and then they quietly left the living room together.

　Dark felt that with his limited intelligence, he couldn't possibly imagine the extent to which the divergent thinking of the "god of wisdom" could extend.

　Therefore, he decisively gave up thinking and prepared to go home and get a good night's sleep.

　Once outside Professor Kazel's bedroom, he casually asked, "By the way, Professor, where has Ergane been staying since then? How can I contact her?"

　Professor Cazell waved his wand as if playing music, and smiled, "I'll give her a 'Professor Card.' You can use the 'Professor Card' to arrange meetings with her in the future, but don't talk to her through the 'Professor Card.' As for her accommodation, since you've been granted an application for faculty housing, I'll apply for the one next to mine. Of course, in your name."

　Dark sighed slightly. Not only the "God of Wisdom," but Professor Cazell was also quite cunning.

　If someone eats your food, lives in your house, and was "born" by you, unless they are so vicious as to be utterly devoid of conscience, they would never betray you.

　Professor Cazell was determined to bind him and Ergane together tightly.

　But whatever.

　Dark said, "Give me a key when the time comes."

　After that, he said "See you tomorrow morning" to the professor and left the professor's dormitory with the "Soul of the Moon Goddess".

　……

　By the time they had gone back and forth, it was almost four o'clock.

　Soon it will be dawn.

　Dak walked all the way to the entrance of the House of Nobles tower before suddenly realizing that he did not have Professor Kazel's credentials.

　However, the feathered serpent golem guarding the tower did not stop it.

　He tried to push the door open, only to suddenly realize that he was already a professor!

　Now that they're professors, of course they don't need access control permits anymore!

　From now on, he can ignore the curfew and roam freely in the castle at night.

　Darko Dimon experienced the first benefit of becoming a professor.

　He pushed open the door and walked unhurriedly up to the third floor, turning towards room 301.

　In four hours, it will be the first "Summoning Spell Class" of the new semester.

　"I hope to truly learn how to set up rituals and create ritual cards in this semester's 'Summoning Magic' class."

　Dak set himself a small goal, then quietly opened the door and entered, settling onto the soft, fragrant bed.

　Mmm, it smells sweet and soft, and it's still warm.

　"It's so good to have my darling here!"

　He sighed happily again, then quickly hugged a cute little creature nearby and fell asleep.

　……

　Two hours later, Dak woke up precisely at six o'clock, then moved the little cutie off him, opened his eyes, got out of bed, brushed his teeth, and washed up.

　Daily life is returning to normal.

　After half an hour.

　He sat at his desk, sipping coffee and reading the newspaper, having rediscovered his former self.

　After that, he began to preview the material.

　Monday's three classes are "Summoning Spells," "Magic Theory," and "Potion Studies." Like Wednesday's first class, "Magic Language," these are all courses that require pre-reading to better understand the content.

　He did not become complacent after becoming a professor.

　seven thirty.

　He slung his backpack over his shoulder, left the dormitory, and headed towards the classroom for "Summoning Spells".

　For some reason, the students along the way looked at him with rather strange eyes.

　He thought that since he had missed the opening ceremony, there was no way he could do anything to attract attention.

　Could something have happened during the opening ceremony that concerns me?

　A few minutes later, he arrived at the classroom and found that the second-grade students were taking the first class of the new semester quite seriously, and most of the class had already started.

　Because he habitually entered through the back door, he didn't attract much attention and went straight to the last row of "reserved seats" by the window, sitting down behind Diana and Rose.

　Before he could ask, Diana widened her bright eyes and turned around.

　"Dark, where did you go last night?" Diana asked, staring into his eyes, much like a resentful wife waiting at home for her husband to return.

　“I’m doing research with Professor Kazel,” Darke said.

　He intended to develop Diana and Rose into subordinates of the "Serpent of Wisdom." However, considering that they were only sophomores, he temporarily abandoned this idea.

　Since they won't be recruited for the time being, they'll have to keep certain things a secret.

　"So you were with Professor Cazell! I didn't even notice he wasn't here last night." Diana nodded happily.

　Rose, who then turned around, looked suspicious.

　Little Rose, you mustn't become a suspicious woman!

　Dark sighed slightly and then changed the subject, asking, "Did anything happen at the opening ceremony last night?"

　“No, just…” Rose began as usual.

　"Yes, yes!" Diana blurted out, "Dark, you're a professor now?"

　"Uh, yeah." Darke's mind raced, and he immediately realized, "Did Principal Arte announce my official appointment?"

　Diana nodded repeatedly: "Yes, everyone was so surprised back then! Especially the first-year students, hey, did you see it... well, I didn't see it either."

　"Pfft." Rose couldn't help but laugh, pushing her away and saying, "Who told you to keep eating? But for some reason, several of those first-year students looked terrified. It's a really good thing that Dark is here to teach math."

　“Yes, yes!” Diana nodded vigorously. “Ever since you became a teaching assistant in the first year, no one has been able to control or discipline Professor Lily.”

　Dark smiled and said, "But you guys are doing quite well in math. Professor Lily is quite dedicated."

　Do you know how difficult it is to get a little imp to stay in a classroom and teach for ninety minutes straight?

　After exploring the Temple of the Sun and Moon, Dark understood this point deeply.

　Therefore, he instinctively lowered his expectations of Professor Lily's words and actions.

　Looking back now, Professor Lily must have been doing a lot of work to restrain herself to be able to teach at St. Marian College for so many years!

　But why would any of the first-year students be so afraid of him?

　We need to investigate this thoroughly.

　……

　"Jingle Bell--"

　At exactly eight o'clock, Professor Sarah Sylph walked into the classroom without a second's delay, still sporting the same serious face that hadn't changed in ages.

　As is customary, she will give an overview of the second semester's plan in the first class today, review the key points from the previous semester, and finally make a preview of this semester.

　In short, she demonstrated the creation of the arcane card on the spot.

　It was a cryptic card titled "Master's Lecture".

　As soon as she entered the classroom, she quietly set up the ritual. By the end of the class, she had completed a full ritual and recorded it on a magic card on the spot.

　"Master Teacher's Lecture" is not a combat-related secret technique; its only effect is to slightly improve students' ability to understand new knowledge while learning.

　In fact, arcane cards that are truly suitable for combat are quite rare.

　Most arcane cards, like "Master's Lecture," are magic cards that can create certain buff effects.

　The first thing second-year students need to learn is how to make these simple ritual cards.

　Of course, a skilled mage who makes good use of arcane arts can always use all sorts of arcane cards in unexpected ways.

　……

　At 10:00 sharp, Professor Kazel walked into the "Magic Theory" classroom as the bell rang.

　He got straight to the point, saying that this semester he would gradually master the making of prop cards and ritual cards, and then showed the students all sorts of magical props and rituals.

　It must be said that Professor Cazell's teaching level is still the highest among the second-year students. He always manages to motivate students to learn effectively and make even the most boring content interesting and novel.

　……

　At 2 PM sharp, Professor Thompson entered the classroom with a large amount of equipment. In the first class, he led everyone in a small experiment, and then used this experiment as a basis for his lecture, explaining the importance of potion science.

　……
