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

　"Is Archbishop Caleb Norris among those three carriages?"

　Why did they arrive so early?

　"And they deliberately chose to come in at dawn when few people are awake." "Was it to find out the true situation inside the academy without being watched?"

　Dark's doubts grew, and he became even more curious about the purpose of the Holy Church's Mystic Ritual Academy's visit.

　"mum--"

　Sylveon extended a ribbon and gently touched his face.

　Dak couldn't help but smile, took it out of the blanket, covered his face with it, and breathed in the fluffy scent.

　A moment later, though it was a light sleep, he finally fell asleep.

　Dak slept until seven in the morning before opening his eyes to the slightest noise.

　He sat cross-legged and meditated for five minutes to dispel the lingering fatigue in his eyes. Only then did he eat the breakfast that Little Devimon had brought him and start reading the newspaper.

　The Great Sage's Daily published extensive reports on the exchange and learning activities between the two academies yesterday, and unexpectedly, today's topic is still the same.

　The only difference from yesterday is that today's newspapers published a large number of comments on the incident from various well-known figures.

　With nothing else to do, Dak read through the entire book, absorbing a great deal of information. The experts who published their ideas in the *Daily Wise Man* were certainly knowledgeable; some of their thoughts were quite interesting.

　One of the experts, who called himself the mouthpiece of the royal family, launched a scathing critique of St. Mary's College and the College of Holy Mysteries for "forming cliques and engaging in favoritism," almost hysterically proclaiming the "supreme authority of the monarchy."

　His extreme remarks are bound to provoke public resentment.

　But the fact that this article was published in the Daily Wise Man seems to indicate certain attitudes of some people.

　However, this era was ultimately only in the early stages of change, and the natural awe of royal power deeply rooted in the hearts of the people had not disappeared.

　Under such guidance, some members of the public will inevitably develop doubts about the stance of St. Mary's College and the Holy Mystic Academy.

　But what impact could this mere suspicion have on St. Mary's Academy or the Holy Mystic Academy?

　Dark put down the newspaper and picked up the Daily Joker for some fun. After careful consideration, he took out his notes from his previous research on special move cards, and then took out "Special Move: Transformation" and "Transformation Charm" for reference.

　After less than half an hour of research, he gave up and switched his focus to researching "ultimate move: drinking milk!"

Chapter 864 The Kind Guide and the Cold-Faced Saint (4k)

　The difficulty of crafting the Transformation Spell was so high that the idea of ​​using it to research "Transformation" magic cards immediately failed.

　However, during his research, Dark discovered that he already possessed enough knowledge to transform "Ultimate Move: Drinking Milk" into a magic card.

　Originating from "Milk Tank", the "Special Move - Drink Milk" can be said to be the "Special Move Card" he analyzed most deeply in his past research, and its level of proficiency is far higher than "Special Move - Transformation".

　Furthermore, the "Ultimate Move - Drinking Milk" has a very distinct "Sin" characteristic, and is the exclusive ultimate move of "Milky," one of the Elysium Magic Spirits.

　Based on this, he could completely transform "Ultimate Move: Drinking Milk" into "Sin: Magic Card" that any Elysium Magic Spirit can activate and release!

　Although this method takes an unconventional approach, it is indeed a good way to explore new paths.

　Based on "Paradise", he also possesses enough "Lunar Version of Paradise" or "Paradise Version of Paradise" for experimental use.

　Moreover, developing new magic cards when you have enough knowledge is actually quite fun.

　However, Dak did not spend the entire morning there.

　In fact, he received a notification from Professor Sylph at nine o'clock in the morning, and therefore had to change into his school uniform and go out.

　Good morning, Professor Sylph.

　Pushing open the office door, Dark greeted him with a hint of exasperation. Behind the desk, Professor Sylph looked up, put down her pen, and said, "Good morning, Dark. It seems this morning's events didn't affect your sleep."

　“Professor, actually I’ve been influenced,” Darke said, walking to the sofa and sitting down. “That’s why I was called here—because of the people from the Holy Church Mystic Academy.”

　Professor Sylph's lips curled up slightly as she said, "That's right. Archbishop Caleb Norris said that their holy son and daughter need a guide, and that's when I thought of you."

　"But Professor," Dark said, "I have a match this afternoon." Professor Sylph replied, "That's perfect. You can show the exchange students around our open-air dueling arena. They mentioned they wanted to see the opening ceremony of the Golden Cup."

　Dark said, "So that's why they came here so early."

　Professor Sylph said, "I'd like to know the same thing. Could you inquire about it for me?"

　Dark: "..."

　Professor Sarah Sylph has become rather annoying lately...

　Dark took a deep breath and asked, "So, Professor, where are our Archbishop and the Holy Son and Daughter now? And what about their accommodations?"

　Professor Sylph said, "Archbishop Caleb Norris has already checked into his guest room in the faculty dormitory. The four exchange students he brought will be sorted into their respective colleges and dormitories according to school rules through the Sorting Ceremony. The Sorting Ceremony is scheduled for tomorrow evening's welcome ceremony, at which time a notice will be issued. But before that, try not to let it get out. Of course, this is Archbishop Norris's request. Also, they should be wandering around somewhere in the college right now."

　Upon hearing this, Dark frowned and said, "Is it really a good idea to just let them wander around like this?"

　Professor Sylph said calmly, "So, this is your task."

　"I can't always follow them," Darke questioned.

　Professor Sylph said, "There's nothing we can do about it. A whole month is enough for them to travel all over the academy. And what I mean is, we should try our best to ensure their safety and prevent them from wandering into any dangerous places. The Holy Church may value those two holy children even more than we imagine. Judging from what we found when we met with them this morning, it seems quite possible that the Holy Church proposed this exchange program for their training."

　"They're taking it this seriously?" Darkth pondered. "Then Archbishop Caleb Norris really came just to protect them?"

　Professor Sylph shook her head and said, "That's not necessarily true. Just like we did, they don't necessarily have only one purpose. Anyway, you don't need to worry about Bishop Norris. Professor Harvey said he'd like to have a word with Bishop Norris."

　Darke exclaimed in astonishment, "Professor, you're sending a necromancer to deal with the Holy Church's chief archbishop?"

　Professor Sylph immediately denied it, saying, "I'll reiterate, it was Professor Harvey who took the initiative to want to communicate with Archbishop Norris."

　“Alright, alright,” Dark said. “I’ll go find them now. By the way, may I bring a few helpers?”

　Professor Sylph named directly, "Aurora, then." Dark couldn't help but smile, "Aurora it is then." Professor Sylph clearly didn't trust Diana at all. Even though Diana was much better at getting along with her peers—well, that's why.

　Even Rose was implicated.

　However, since Aurora and Miss Saint are both first-year students, they are indeed more suitable.

　Dark took out the professor card and sent a notification to Aurora.

　He then waited in Professor Sylph's office while they chatted.

　He didn't get up to open the door until Aurora knocked.

　"They're here."

　Aurora entered the room and said to Professor Sylph, "Good morning, Professor Sylph. Is there a task for you?"

　Professor Sylph pointed at Dark and said, "It was he who came to find you. Also, the Holy Son should be near the Great Hall right now, and the Holy Maiden should be near the Back Garden."

　Aurora frowned, sensing that things were not so simple.

　Dark waved and led Aurora out of the office. He explained, "The Holy Mystic Academy's team arrived at five o'clock this morning. Since they are newcomers, they need a guide."

　Aurora tilted her head slightly and said, "So, you've asked me to be your guide?" Dark shook his head and smiled, "No, I'm the guide. You'll be my assistant for now."

　Aurora hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Where shall we go first?" Dark said, "The auditorium."

　Despite claiming to keep it a secret, "The Holy Son" Evan Pearson and his guardian knights did not deliberately hide their whereabouts.

　They simply changed into school uniforms matching their grade level—temporarily a noble school uniform—after moving their luggage into Archbishop Norris's guest room.

　However, the Holy Son's temperament doesn't seem to be very unique. He and his guardian knights have blended perfectly into the group at St. Mary's Academy and have not been discovered to this day.

　When Dak brought Aurora to them, they were at the entrance of the auditorium, admiring the paintings hanging on the wall by the door.

　Evan Pearson has thick brown curly hair, handsome features, a slender build, and a cold expression.

　In terms of outward appearance, he was almost indistinguishable from the average student in the academy of nobles.

　No wonder his identity hasn't been exposed yet.

　Dark and Aurora exchanged a glance, then Dark stepped forward alone. As he approached, Evan Pearson's guardian knight subtly moved behind Evan Pearson, protecting him in front.

　Dark glanced at him; Evan Pearson's guardian knight was clearly taller than his peers. However, he wasn't muscular; rather, he was tall and thin. Judging from his slightly turned face, he appeared to be a refined and intelligent man.

　Is he a strategist/thinker type of character?

　After a moment's guess, Dak raised his hand and greeted them, "Hello, are you Mr. Pearson and Mr. Smith?"

　Tommy Smith is the name of this guardian knight.

　According to the information, he is over seventeen years old this year and is a fifth-year student in the Holy Knights College of the Holy Church Mystic Academy, where he is the third seat in the fifth grade.

　The Holy Church's Mystic Ritual Academy maintains a strict hierarchy and places great importance on seating arrangements.

　If he's the third seat, then there are only two people with stronger overall abilities than him.

　Tommy Smith only turned around and squinted when Dick asked him, asking, "Who are you?"

　At the same time, the "holy son" named Evan Pearson also turned around and looked on indifferently.

　Feeling their gazes, Dark smiled and said, "Dark Dimon, a second-year student from the Noble Academy, has come to entertain you two on the orders of the Vice Principal."

　"Is that the same Dimon?" Pearson asked coldly. Darke laughed, "I suppose so."

　Evan Pearson stepped out from behind Tommy Smith and extended his hand to Dark: "Since you're from the Dimon family... I'm Evan Pearson, also a second-year student."

　Darke extended his hand to shake mine, saying, "It's an honor to meet you." Evan Pearson replied, "It's an honor for me too."

　Then the two let go of each other's hands.

　The guardian knight, Tommy Smith, retreated behind Evan Pearson, becoming the embodiment of loyalty and duty in the background.

　Evan Pearson did not introduce it in his remarks.

　Dark quickly switched into his "tour guide" role, smiling as he said, "Pearson, you seem interested in our college's auditorium."

　Evan Pearson said coldly, "No, I was just curious because I heard that students from St. Mary's College hold their Sorting Ceremony in this hall."

　Dark said casually, "Don't be curious, you'll be able to stand on it tomorrow."

　Evan Pearson paused, speechless for a long moment.

　Darke smirked and continued, "I wonder which of our college's departments Pearson is more interested in?"

　Evan Pearson then said, "To be honest, I'm more interested in the Magic Academy. I've heard that the students there have a strong thirst for knowledge, and each one is incredibly learned and knowledgeable. I respect knowledge."

　Dark asked in confusion, "Pearson, aren't you of noble birth?" Evan Pearson replied calmly, "Just call me Evan. Although I am of noble birth, noble status does not represent my entirety. It is merely one of the many factors that constitute me."

　Dark smiled: "And what about the identity of the Holy Son?" Evan Pearson: "Well, of course... um..."

　“Dark Dimon!” Tommy Smith suddenly interjected. Dark turned his head, puzzled. “What’s wrong, Tommy Smith? Are you washing your hands?”

　Tommy Smith's gaze suddenly turned sharp: "Dimmon, I don't think Vice Principal Sylph sent you here to make things difficult for us."

　Dark frowned immediately, puzzled, and asked, "Smith, what makes you think this way? Do you only see malice?"

　“Smith!” Evan Pearson suddenly raised his hand, stopping Tommy Smith from continuing his rebuttal.

　Then, still coldly, he said, "I'm willing to believe that Dimon had good intentions."

　Dark relaxed his brow and smiled, "Exactly. Some people really shouldn't judge others by their own standards."

　Then, ignoring Tommy Smith's continued malicious intent, he said enthusiastically, "Evan, is there anywhere else you'd like to see? When it comes to our college's greatest treasure, it's the library. It'll probably be your most frequented place for the next month."

　“I’ve heard of St. Mary’s Academy’s library before,” Evan Pearson said, shaking his head. “But since Dimon is here, I hope you can take me to meet your hero.”

　Dark narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Our academy has no heroes. But if you're referring to the descendants of a deceased hero, I'm not sure if he has left the academy."

　Evan Pearson looked up, a glint in his eyes: "He's still here. I asked Vice Principal Sylph. The exchange student group, centered around the hero, isn't leaving until this afternoon. I hope to see him before he leaves."

　Dark said, "I'm just asking on your behalf to see if he's willing to come over."

　Evan Pearson said matter-of-factly, "He'll definitely agree, after all, I'm the Holy Son."

　Dark smiled, then turned his back to him and pulled out his "Professor Card." Two minutes later, he put away the "Professor Card," turned around, and said, "Luckily, he has time right now. However, we need to meet him in the common room of the Knights' Academy tower."

　“The Knights' Academy tower…” Evan Pearson frowned. “There must be many Knights' Academy students there.”

　“Of course,” Dark said, “that’s the Knights’ Academy’s student dormitory.” Evan Pearson frowned. “Could we go somewhere else?”

　Dark said, "I know your concerns, but unfortunately... when I informed Witt Gold, he seemed to be surrounded by a lot of people."

　Evan Pearson's expression stiffened, and after a long pause, he said, "Since that's the case..."

　“Wait.” Dark suddenly raised his hand and turned to look down the corridor. Aurora jogged over and whispered quickly in his ear.

　After hearing this, Dark stood up and said, "It seems we can't go to the Knights' Academy tower."

　Evan Pearson's gaze was drawn to Aurora, and he instinctively asked, "Why?"

　Dark glanced at him and said, "We need to go to the back garden first."
