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

　Dark said, "Is tonight okay?"

　Professor Bode nodded and said, "Then let's start tonight. The afternoon is enough time to prepare. Also, there's an astrology class tomorrow night, so the second period will be on Friday. Do you have any plans for the weekend?"

　Dark said, "There are no plans to venture into the dungeons for the time being. The Golden Cup matches are all during the day, so this week is feasible. But there will be plans for next weekend."

　“Hmm,” Professor Bode nodded. “The first round of classes will begin tonight, in the following order: Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. How about starting the second round next Monday?”

　Dark said, "Making up all the class hours in the first round shouldn't be a problem, but we'll have to see how it goes in the second round."

　Professor Bode said, "Okay. Seven o'clock tonight, don't be late." Darke smiled and said, "Yes, Professor."

　Hoddle Bode is, as expected, a very pleasant talker.

　Dark left the office in high spirits and then returned to the clubroom to continue studying the knowledge collection that Elurly Clarissa had sent.

　At 6:30 p.m., he went straight to Professor Bode's office after leaving the cafeteria.

　Then, something unexpected happened.

　What was originally imagined as a one-on-one lecture... turned into a group lecture! Although Professor Hoddle Bode remained expressionless as always, Dark seemed to see the mischievousness on his face.

　Apart from Dak, the students present were clearly all brought in temporarily, but they should all know the situation, as they were all very serious.

　These people are Diana, Rose, Sarah, Heidi, Witt, and Emma.

　Apart from the lonely little Emma, ​​the rest of the people are members of the "Serpent of Wisdom" or the "Serpent of the Hidden".

　Darke glanced at it briefly and immediately understood Professor Hoddle Bode's idea.

　He probably wanted to improve the overall level of the organization's members, and Emma was the prospective member in his mind.

　"Magical language" is like the skeleton of magical technology; it is essential for mastering almost all techniques.

　Only by improving the level of "magical language" can mages possess a high level of independent research and development capabilities in a general sense.

　However, among those present, although Witt's sequence was the highest, his intelligence improvement was probably the lowest.

　Emma, ​​with her own intelligence, might even be better than him.

　Dark was somewhat worried about whether he could keep up with Professor Bod's pace. However, he quickly put this worry aside once the lesson began.

　Professor Bode's speed left him no time to spare. He had to concentrate and be extremely focused.

　Therefore, shortly after the start of the course, he summoned the "Magic Secretary" and ordered it to record all the blackboard writing.

　His subsequent thirst for knowledge also fueled the growth of "greed".

　But in order to see a broader future, a little sacrifice and cost at this time is insignificant.

　He always manages to suppress it!

　From 7 p.m. to midnight, Hoddle Bode didn't even give the students time to get through the gate.

　He didn't even mention it after he finished speaking, and the students were so overwhelmed by the flood of knowledge that they had no time to think about it.

　Finally, after the professor left, some people suddenly realized what had happened. Professor Darko Dimon then became their last hope. Darko had no choice but to escort them back to the tower one by one.

　Even so, everyone still walked together.

　Throughout the second year, this group was undoubtedly the top students. While there were other very talented individuals among them, their potential was slightly inferior to that of this group.

　An exception would be someone like Eudora, who possesses extraordinary talent in another field.

　The castle was now completely deserted, and the patrolling golems avoided him upon sensing his presence.

　The group walked down the corridor, murmuring amongst themselves. Although Professor Hoddle Bode had gathered them together, the actual lecture content was still tailored to Dark's level. So, he started with the material from the latter part of the third year.

　Under these circumstances, Witt was immediately overwhelmed. Subsequently, Diana and Rose also succumbed to his influence.

　Although Emma had some grasp of the third-grade curriculum, she was still finding it very difficult to learn.

　Heidi was slightly better than her, but only slightly. Only Sara Swati was barely keeping up.

　Seeing that Witt and Diana were both looking dejected, Darke could only comfort them, "When I get back, I'll make a few copies of tonight's blackboard notes. If there's anything you don't understand, you can study it carefully later. You'll eventually learn it."

　Witt asked, "But it's not that I don't understand, it's that I'm completely out of touch!" Dark said helplessly, "Then you'll have to learn it yourself."

　Diana said listlessly, "Yes, yes, I can learn it myself." Diana then began to learn... "Two little bears, two little bears, eat fast, eat fast..."

　Dark sighed, then said, "I can also make a few copies of the third-grade notes. Anyone want them?"

　Diana immediately raised her hand: "Here!"

　Rose chuckled: "Then give me one too." Witt: "Dark..."

　Emma shook her head and said, "I don't need any." Heidi interjected, "Can I have one too?" Darke said, "Of course, then four."

　While they were chatting animatedly, Sarah walked up to Duck with her hands behind her back, and asked in a seemingly obedient manner, "What about me? Can I have something else?"

　Dark frowned and said, "What?"

　Sarah said, "Notes from fourth grade—"

　This voice really doesn't suit you, Miss Sara Swati!

　……

　"shameless!"

　Looking at Sarah's affected coquettishness, Emma couldn't help but turn her face away, silently muttering something to herself.

　But no matter how much she grumbled inwardly, she couldn't change the fact that she had already said no.

　Her stubbornness wouldn't allow her to take it back.

　However, Dark did not agree to Sarah's request. He smiled and declined, saying, "That won't do. I don't have the time or inclination to study with the intention of organizing my notes. Besides, you might learn better than I do."

　“Woman’s mouth.” Sarah put her hands behind her back and took a small step back to express her dissatisfaction.

　"We've arrived at the Magic Academy," Darke reminded them.

　Sarah turned slightly and looked behind her; the Magic Academy's tower was indeed in front of her.

　"Goodnight then." Dark waved and saw Sarah and Heidi into the Magic Academy's tower before turning back.

　Then he led the rest of the group toward the Knights Academy.

　Soon after, they arrived at the Knights' Academy tower. Dark escorted Witt and Emma into the tower, leaving only the trio from the Noble Academy in the group.

　"It's just us left again!" Diana said, skipping around, inexplicably excited.

　Dark changed the subject, saying, "If there's anything you don't understand in tonight's lesson, Diana immediately stopped, blinked, and shook her head."

　Dark had no choice but to rephrase, "Then where did you understand?" But Diana shook her head even more vigorously.

　Rose covered her mouth and laughed, "We can still understand quite a bit. But our brains are all a mess right now, it'll take some time to sort things out before we can understand clearly."

　Dark nodded and said, "Then let's tidy up first, and then go to sleep. Don't wake up with nothing left in your mind."

　Diana sighed deeply, "I'm not sleeping anymore." Dark said, "Seize the opportunity, try your best. Opportunities to have Professor Bod teach your class are rare. Believe in yourself, believe in the blessing of the 'God of Wisdom.' There's nothing you can't understand after studying diligently. This is just ordinary fourth-year material."

　Rose said with a hint of relief, "Without Ergani's blessing, I would have fallen asleep within the second minute of class..."

　Dark said, "This opportunity is hard-won. If you can significantly improve your 'Magical Language' level during this period, the road ahead will be a hundred times smoother. I hope you will stand out in this year's Academy Cup and keep up with me."

　He paused briefly, then turned and said, "The Dungeon Fighter Tournament of the Academy Cup is a three-person team competition, which is the perfect stage for you to showcase your talents."

　He had considered teaming up with Doron, or someone else, to participate in the Dungeon Fighter Tournament.

　But now that I think about it, I can only feel sorry for Duolong.

　Teaming up with Diana and Rose, whom he knows well, would obviously allow him to perform better than players like Doron.

　When necessary, he doesn't need to be overly accommodating to his teammates. Diana and Rose are both reliable individuals.

　Now, besides him, the Magic Academy has Sarah and Heidi, the Knight Academy has Emma and Witt, and the Noble Academy has Diana and Rose. It's almost a two-thirds of the second-year students for the Academy Cup.

　If the House of Nobles wants to perform well in the competition among its peers, Diana and Rose must both catch up.

　Dark himself, on the other hand, was preparing to compete against the upperclassmen.

　In the Dungeon Fighter Tournament of the Academy Cup, although lower-year teams receive a points bonus, it's still a stage where they compete against upper-year students. For example, Dark will almost certainly face targeting from upper-year students in other departments.

　Therefore, it is quite difficult for him to get a high score in the dungeon battle.

　They might even be at a disadvantage under the combined attack of the other three colleges.

　However, challenges are what motivate us.

　A victory that comes too easily is not desirable.

　Dark led Diana and Rose into the tower of the noble house, where they parted ways on the third floor.

　Upon arriving at room 301, Dark opened the door and tiptoed inside. Most of the magical spirits in the bedroom were already asleep. Although they didn't need sleep to recover their strength, they needed rest to regain their energy after gaining sentience.

　The continuous classes over this period have taken a heavy toll on the energy of the Magic Spirits.

　Otherwise, they would definitely wait for Dak to return before they could sleep peacefully. But living a life where everyone is striving for their own improvement is actually very fulfilling and happy.

　Dak put down his schoolbag, summoned the "Magic Secretary," looked at the notes it had written on the blackboard for a while, and finally fell asleep around 2 a.m.

　Even so, he woke up promptly at seven o'clock in the morning, and although his time was tight afterward, he still arrived at the "Alchemy Class" classroom on time.

　In the following semester, the "Alchemy" course became more in-depth and comprehensive.

　Moreover, Professor Cazell has begun teaching students how to actively seek out the "Gate of Truth".

　That's a level that only those with extremely high achievements in alchemy can reach. But students who have opened the "Eye of Truth" have the possibility of taking a shortcut.

　In fact, upperclassmen like Eluri Clarissa have already been able to glimpse the "Gate of Truth".

　"Fantasy Heavenly Principles" was forged under such circumstances.

　If Dark wants to master "Imaginary Heavenly Principles", he also needs to master the ability to glimpse the "Gate of Truth".

　He studied very hard.

　After the "Alchemy Class" ended, Dark made copies of the blackboard notes from the previous night and the notebooks he had kept while self-studying the third-year "Magic Language". He then used the "Professor Card" to send out a notice, ordering them to come to his office to collect them.

　He then spent the afternoon studying in his office before starting his evening "astrology class".

　Dak has gradually become more comfortable with his studies in "astrology" and is occasionally able to successfully perform a few small divinations.

　Although she can't compare to Eudora, she's ahead of the other students.

　At least with his current level, he is already able to pass the final exam for the "Astrology" course smoothly.

　But that's where it ends.

　Barring any unforeseen circumstances, his achievements in astrology are unlikely to reach very high levels.

　Just like his martial arts path, he has no hope of reaching the peak. At most, he can only reach the level of "master" in the eyes of ordinary people.

　However, this is still quite helpful in improving one's overall strength and filling weaknesses.

　At 9 p.m. sharp, the "Astrology Class" ended.

　Dark went downstairs and personally taught Diana and Rose about the third-year "magic language" in the clubroom, trying to connect it with the fourth-year "magic language" content.

　That night was very fulfilling.

　Then, Friday arrived again, and the "Golden Cup" points tournament began once more!

　Dark also applied for three duels this week. But perhaps because his performance last week was so outstanding, or perhaps because Eluri Clarissa and Matthew Bilbohm were such a good foil, he didn't receive any challenges this week!

　Because he did not actively challenge anyone, he only had three duels that week.

　In this way, even if he wins all three duels, he will still fall behind the person who has fought five full duels.

　This is extremely detrimental to his ranking.

　Dark is currently ranked fourteenth in the points race.

　Elurly Clarissa, who was originally ranked fourteenth, won her duel last Sunday and rose to thirteenth.

　The player who was originally ranked thirteenth dropped to fifteenth place due to a very unfortunate defeat, suddenly finding himself in a situation where he could be eliminated at any time.

　The competition in the "Golden Cup" points tournament is becoming increasingly fierce.

　In the penultimate week of the "Golden Cup" points tournament, the number of players with no hope of advancing further decreased again. However, some strong players who rarely participated in the competition unexpectedly joined, making the competition even more intense.

　Most of the top players participated because they considered that the probability of being matched with skilled opponents had increased as the "Golden Cup" points tournament progressed, and they were motivated by the desire to compete against strong players.

　They were not afraid of defeat, some were simply there to enjoy the thrill of dueling, and others came with a slightly malicious intent.
