As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

But why would the cultists send someone like this to die...

When Roy asked, he learned that the [School of Undead] seemed to have guaranteed that he was only a Sequence 7, and Envy's strength was enough to deal with him.

By the way, the [School of the Undead] doesn’t know its own strength!

Although they are all cults in their own eyes, the major cults are not united and information is not exchanged.

Just like the [Evil Dragon Society] had already locked onto his identity long ago, [Withering of All Things] was unaware of it at first.

The [School of the Undead] learned that they were the blood of the false king, but had no idea how strong they were. They only thought that Sequence 6 was more than enough to defeat Sequence 7, so they sent the "strong general" Enwei.

Thinking about it this way, this guy was completely tricked by the [School of Undead], and he was foolish enough to treat them as his own!

Rather than believing them, it is better to believe that I am the Creator God!

However, after this incident, the [School of the Undead] might not be so careless anymore.

Even though there was another enemy targeting him, Roy was not burdened by too many debts and did not care too much.

If you want to see me, please queue up first, okay?

------------

It was noon and the sun was shining brightly.

The teachers sat lazily under the makeshift sunshade, eating lunch while listening to the projections from the familiars as a side dish.

"Pfft! You can't even win when you're two against one. What are you guys listening to when I'm teaching you?"

"You're doing really well. We two idiots have been walking all morning and haven't even taken the right route!"

"Be content, my students were directly carried out by the monsters' sneak attack! Young people nowadays..."

The practical examination is not easy to perform, and there are many cases like this that make teachers feel disappointed.

But just as everyone was sighing, a cry of surprise came from the other side.

"As expected of the Lionheart Princess! As expected, she finished the exam first!"

The projected image was frozen at the heroic moment when the red-haired princess led her team and slaughtered the beasts.

Her style of defeating the enemy head-on and advancing unimpeded drew the admiration of many teachers, who felt that Wang Guo’s martial arts reputation was well-deserved.

Immediately afterwards, cheers were heard from the other side.

The second projection freezes on the moment Nia completes the painting.

But at this moment, more teachers were at a loss whether to laugh or cry, and Nia's class teacher Shaduo had an even more complicated expression.

Nia's mission was to go to the bottom of the valley, but she did not take the normal route. Instead, she took advantage of a loophole and made a zipline to take a shortcut, which destroyed all the traps and monsters prepared by the teachers on the way.

However, agility is also part of strength, and no one will question this.

The average time to complete the final practical exercise is usually a whole day.

Only highly anticipated rising stars like Princess Lionheart and Elf Nightingale could accomplish it in half a day and leave the others far behind.

However, the third candidate was somewhat unexpected to everyone.

Chapter 44: The Fourth

"Third place! This year, three people actually finished the final practical ahead of time!"

"Besides, that child doesn't seem to be a noble, nor a member of the Society, right?"

Shaduo chuckled softly, expressing a completely different admiration from her attitude towards Nia. She nodded and said, "You still underestimate Alice."

As the class teacher, Shaduo naturally noticed Alice's efforts.

[The Feathered Angel Bathing in Light] is very popular among students, but is mediocre in the eyes of teachers.

[Holy Light] bloodline is rare in the Western Continent, but it is not very powerful, not to mention that Alice is not from the church.

Unlike aristocratic families or magician associations, lacking systematic guidance and abundant resource support, the upper limit of a maid is destined not to be too high.

However, Alice's talent and hard work are beyond ordinary people.

Not only does he frequently participate in various extracurricular training and elective courses, but his application of his abilities is also in no way inferior to that of exchange students from church colleges.

Today, the long-term efforts have borne fruit. The scene of the blonde girl dancing with the sword and being invincible has finally unfolded in front of the teachers, and they are all conquered by the holy and heroic figure.

Three students who had finished their final practical training half a day ahead of schedule showed up one after another, breaking the drowsiness brought on by the midday sun.

You should know that the content of the final practical training is tailored by the Academic Affairs Office.

Completing the task ahead of schedule shows that their abilities far exceeded the teachers' expectations. Such cases are rare for several years.

Last year, only Lyanna and Douglas completed the task among the three heads of the school, which was quite rare.

Just as everyone was excited and toasting to these outstanding young people, a cold question suddenly came from a corner that had been silent until then.

"Roy, how's it going?"

"Do you think he will finish the practical exam ahead of time?"

Such a light sentence has sparked new heated discussions.

The only ones who can make an exception and complete the final practical training are the royal children or the chief magician appointed by the school.

People like Alice are a minority.

Even as the son of a marquis, he seemed unremarkable in a magic academy that was packed with talented people.

However, there has always been controversy regarding this name.

"Student Roy can do it! He's the winner of the Blue Trial and one of the few first-year students to reach Sequence 7!" As the homeroom teacher, Barbara naturally had to speak up for her student.

But the prince of the empire, Winter, smiled bitterly and said, "Maybe not?"

"Wasn't that trial interrupted by a cult attack? Roy's victory was more a testament to his bravery. As for Sequence 7, it's only Silver bloodline, so it's not that special, right?"

Barbara was speechless: "But, but..."

Another male teacher came to his aid: "But, he's a sworn knight of the Lionheart Kingdom! It's unacceptable for him to be incompetent, right?"

A female teacher sarcastically said, "Really? I heard he got to the top by coaxing the princess and clinging to her. Besides, he's dating so many girls at the same time. I think he's just an uneducated little scumbag!"

Whether good or bad, the name Roy is bound to become a hot topic. In some ways, it is even more eye-catching than the prince and princess.

However, no one noticed that the silver-haired girl who had first mentioned the name fell silent again, scanning the projection again and again.

If they knew that Jon Snow, who always treated all students equally, would take the initiative to care about someone's name, they would probably be surprised from a different perspective.

Jon Snow didn't expect that a casual question would cause such a big discussion.

However, compared to those speculations and discussions, she cared more about Roy himself.

Strange, why can't I find any trace of that child...

Since the students were constantly moving, it wasn't surprising that the projection would be lost for a moment. But Roy's absence was a bit too long...

Just as Jon Snow became more and more suspicious, a panicked cry came from the entrance of the ruins.

"Oops! Something happened!"

Jon Snow was the first to set off.

I saw several teachers returning with three injured students.

One of the girls was so anxious that she shed tears: "Teacher, please go and save Roy..."

Jon Snow's pupils shrank, and then a deep chill emerged.

After learning the reason from Jiaika, the teachers were in chaos.

However, there was no time for them to form a rescue team, so Jon Snow hurriedly set off and rushed to the scene alone on the Silver Wolf.

A college teacher joined a cult and killed his students.

As a teacher and a wizard under the academy, Jon Snow, who has been on the front line against cultists for many years, could not tolerate such despicable behavior and was constantly filled with anger.

But besides anger, there was a more fragile and soft emotion spreading in her heart, urging her to act quickly.

A Sequence 6 that had been tainted by the power of a cult was far beyond the capabilities of a first-year student.

If something really happened to Roy...

Imagining that the young man with the handsome smile might turn into the miserable corpse she had seen more than once, Jon Snow felt a slight pain in his heart.

The two emotions intertwined with each other and finally turned into a deep murderous intent.

Above the galloping silver wolf, the silver-haired girl had a gloomy look in her eyes, and a wisp of white mist could not stop coming out from the corner of her lips, leaving everything frosty and cold wherever she passed.

The silver wolf was swift, completing the process that took Roy and the others hours in just a few minutes and arriving at the valley.

Just as Jon Snow followed the scent and dived into the jungle, he bumped into the young man.

Jon Snow immediately jumped off the Silver Wolf.

"Roy, are you okay...?"

The black-haired boy's clothes were torn and his hair was messy, obviously he had been through a fierce battle.

However, he stood there normally and looked full of energy.

Most importantly, Sequence 6 Enwei, a powerful villain who had dabbled with the power of the cult, was unconscious and was carried on the boy's shoulders like a sack.

The scene was slightly different from what he had imagined, and Jon Snow was stunned.

He came to Roy and looked him up from head to toe. His cold eyes made Roy feel a little uncomfortable, and then Jon Snow finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay."

The girl, who was not good at speaking, only said a few words, but the wind and snow in her ice-blue eyes gradually dissipated, revealing a tenderness like spring water.

Noticing the girl's concern, Roy smiled slowly and said, "Thank you for your concern, teacher."

"...No need. As a teacher, it's just my duty to care about the safety of my students."

Jon Snow unnoticeably avoided the boy's gentle gaze and glanced at Envy, but his face turned stern again.

"Put him down. You've been through a hard battle, there's no need to waste your energy on this scumbag."

"No, no, no, teacher, I won't bother you with any effort."

The battle with Enwei wasn't actually that hard, but it always felt awkward to ask a girl to lift heavy objects.

But Jon Snow shook his head: "No, I don't need to bother."

A moment later, the silver wolf carried the two on their journey home.

As for Enwei, he was tied to the wolf's tail and dragged all the way back like garbage.

Chapter 45: Waiting for Roy

That night, Roy was called to the Academic Affairs Office and informed of what had happened.

The fact that Enwei colluded with a cult and intended to murder students caused panic among the teachers.

To avoid causing panic among the students, they announced that an accident had occurred in the secret realm and that Enwei had escaped and was killed by a monster.

In the minds of most students, the invasion of a cult is ultimately a low-probability event. They don’t even know that there is an insider hiding among the teachers.

Mark, White, Jiaika and other parties involved were naturally also given gag orders and were not allowed to leak any information.

However, since information about the cultists was not allowed to be leaked, the students' attention naturally focused on Roy, the person involved.

According to the Academic Affairs Office, Roy stayed behind to cover his classmates' escape from the monsters.

In the dormitory, a group of roommates gathered around Jiayika, chattering at the little girl who lowered her head, full of curiosity.

"Is Roy really that strong?"

"Why are you asking that? Who cares? Is he really as brave as the Academic Affairs Office said he was, staying behind to cover your retreat?"

"No, no, no, this topic is boring, isn't it?! Strong or brave, only men care about these things! What I want to ask is... Is Roy really handsome?"

Jiaika answered everyone's questions one by one, saying that Roy was strong and brave. Then, blushing slightly, she affirmed the last question: "Yes... he's quite handsome."

The affirmative answer caused a scream in the girls' dormitory.

Even though the princess, the elves, the student council president and other darlings made them pale in comparison, they couldn't even muster the desire to compete.

But who doesn't love to be a star? Now's the fantasy time!
