It’s getting harder and harder to be a villain these days

'Swipe. '

In the writings written by people in the audience, the rune magic compiled by Vickrey reappeared in front of the world.

A moment that will go down in history was born.

----

[Extra mission completed: Reproduce the rune magic]

Reward: Maximum magic power +400 points

----

After about two hours.

"This concludes today's lecture."

For a moment, everyone's eyes turned to the podium, eager for Vickrey to stay a little longer.

However, he straightened his clothes and immediately left the classroom.

But for some reason, Weekly's steps were a bit frivolous and he seemed to be very weak.

Is it her delusion?

Sophie threw down the pen, then rubbed her sore neck and sighed.

Sitting in the back row, she could see the classroom scenery at a glance.

Not only the students, but also the professors of the college and the jury on the floating island are studying seriously.

Although Vickrey has left, the runes he left in the sky have not disappeared.

At this time, Leylin walked over while rubbing his palms.

"Sophie, can you lend me your notes?"

"...

Professor, didn’t you remember it yourself? "

Sophie blinked blankly.

Leylin smiled bitterly.

"Well...I'm getting older and I always forget to bring things. How about this? Lend it to me and I can pay you 2 Galleons...No, no, no, I can take your credits."

"No, professor, I didn't sign up for your class."

Sophie lowered her head and carefully checked the contents of her notes.

"..."

Leylin grunted angrily and turned around to leave.

However, at this moment, the magic in the classroom was automatically unlocked, and all the runes left by Weekly disappeared.

"Ok?"

"Who did this?! I haven't finished writing yet!"

"Hurry! Who has finished writing? I'll lend you 1 Galleons for me to read!"

The wizards in the audience were confused and shouted in horror.

Leylin wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned his head again.

"What about that, Sophie-san, how about 5000 Galleons?"

"Ten thousand galleons, no bargaining."

Sophie replied without raising her head,

Chapter 148 Sophie’s shock

Late at night, Sophie walked out of the library and prepared to go to the 24-hour coffee shop in the college.

After earning [-] Galleons from Professor Leylin, she went out for late-night snacks to reward herself these days.

Walking on the quiet path, Sophie was about to enter the coffee shop.

"?"

Through the window, she spotted two familiar people.

In the empty cafe, Dean Bach and Vickery sat facing each other.

Sophie almost instinctively focused her magic power on her eyes and ears, maximizing her audio-visual sensitivity.

"——Oh, by the way, I will leave my post this winter and go to the floating island."

"Is that so?"

Vickrey said calmly that he had known about this for a long time.

Bach's dean career is coming to an end, in other words, he is about to be promoted to an S-class wizard.

"Why aren't you surprised at all? I thought I did a good job keeping it secret."

"Speaking of which, your research on creating new elements is about to expire. Are you ready?"

Dean Bach's voice was so loud that Sophie's eyes widened when she heard it clearly.

Father’s research!

"It's already in the final stages."

Vickery took a sip of coffee.

"Really! I'm very happy that you can make progress, but did you really write this research? I remember that someone from Colbert was initially responsible for it, right?"

"..."

Sophie outside the window bit her lip when she heard this.

Father's letter mentioned this, and it was indeed Vickrey who had robbed him.

Sophie stamped her feet angrily, and just when she was about to hear what Vickery's reaction would be next, she suddenly discovered...

On the other side of the glass window, Vickery and Dean Bach were looking at him in unison.

"....Uh."

----

Under the dim moonlight, Sophie and Vickery walked side by side on the way to the mage tower.

"...I heard everything, don't you have anything to say to me?"

Sophie couldn't help but ask.

"..."

Vickery didn't answer, just walked on his own.

Sophie was only slightly distracted by the physical difference between the two parties, but the other party walked away unknowingly.

The angry Sophie puffed up her cheeks and hurried after him.

"That research was originally my father's!"

"Your father has all the talent, but he doesn't have the funds and channels to complete the research on his own. This is just a collaboration."

"what!"

Vickery's words made Sophie a little annoyed.

'Da da da. '

She ran a few steps and caught up with Vickrey again, following closely behind him.

"So Professor, you can complete the research alone?"

Sophie wondered.

"I will publish this study next month and you will know then."

Vickery still walked forward without looking at her.

"Professor...Professor! Aren't you afraid that I will report you to the floating island?"

No matter what, the extremely arrogant attitude made Sophie lose her mind instantly, and she shouted loudly.

"In this case, you will never be able to choose the dean!"

Although Sophie regretted the words the moment she said them, she was eager to know what happened back then.

"What happened back then? How did my father die?!"

"..."

Vickery's footsteps stopped, and after a long time, he turned back to look at Sophie.

"...follow me."

---

Vickery took Sophie into his laboratory.

"..."

Sophie stared at Vickery in front of her, feeling a little nervous. Thinking of what she had just done, she felt frightened.

"boom--"

Under the operation of the mage's hand, a large pile of documents fell in front of her, about 200 pages.

"This is your father's research. I have perfected most of the content. Now there is only the last step left."

"...what do you mean?"

"Before next month's hearing, if you can understand its contents and use this research to achieve results, I will relinquish ownership of this paper and return it all to you."

"..

..! "

For a moment, Sophie's eyes widened.

"What? You dare to threaten me, but you don't have the guts to challenge me?"

Vickery said indifferently.

"Who said I wouldn't dare!"

Sophie immediately stepped forward and put the stack of papers into her bag.

This is her father's research, and she must win it back!

"Okay, you can go."

"Yes."

Looking at Sophie's leaving figure, Vickery showed an intriguing smile.

---

As soon as she returned to the dormitory, Sophie took out the documents.

As long as she wants to do it, there's nothing she can't do!

Ah!

After giving herself some encouragement, Sophie rolled up her sleeves and got to work.

She turned to the first page and read it roughly.

I found that the above is just a simple statement about the creation of new elements, and has no actual content...

Coming to the next page, there were immediately more complex theories and magic, but Sophie was confused when reading it, always feeling that something was missing.

"Is the order wrong?"

Sophie was about to turn to the third page, but accidentally discovered that the words on the paper were scrolling up and down with the movement of her fingers.

"....what."

Only then did Sophie realize what the problem was.
