He became the White-Haired Evil God after wearing the Seven Curses Rings.

Dome Academy, Office.

Galloster stared sullenly at the pile of documents on his desk, suddenly feeling utterly exhausted.

"Why am I supposed to handle all this stuff? Shouldn't someone else be doing these clerical tasks?"

But there was no way around it; these were all important documents that required his approval, and implementation could only proceed with his consent.

If it were just a matter of approving or disapproving, that would actually be the simplest part of the whole process.

But the problem is that there are just too many files...

Not only do he have to approve projects from the magic department, but even trivial matters from the physics department are being pushed onto him. Just browsing through them takes up most of his energy.

What is all this nonsense...?

If it weren't for Julius still out there doing who knows what, he wouldn't need to deal with so many chores.

Wouldn't it be better to use this time to do some plein air painting at the beach?

If all else fails, you can let him study new magic.

Just when Galloster thought things couldn't get any worse, he suddenly sensed a familiar presence within the academy's perimeter.

That feeling... almost made his heart skip a beat.

Suddenly, a bead of cold sweat slid slowly down Galloster's forehead.

"hiss……"

"What brings that gentleman here?"

Oh no! Oh no!

How come I didn't receive any news or make any preparations? How did the other party come directly to the Dome Academy?

What are we supposed to do?

Looking for someone, getting something done, or even conducting an inspection?

Wait a minute…

If I remember correctly, the other party's identity within the Dome Academy was simply that of a student, without any additional complicated arrangements.

So, does that mean the other person returned here simply out of nostalgia to revisit a familiar place?

"I hope so..."

After careful consideration, Galloster finally decided not to bother Xie Bai.

A moment later, he felt that his decision was somewhat inappropriate, so he arranged for several people to guard around Xie Bai to prevent any fools from bothering her.

"That should be fine now, right?"

Galloster picked up a cup of tea and drank it down, trying to calm his unease.

Before he could put the cup down, a slightly angry shout suddenly rang in his mind.

"Galost, you come out here!"

not good!

Almost instantly, Galloster's figure vanished from the office and reappeared in front of Xie Bai.

Students passing by were surprised to see him kneeling in front of Xie Bai.

The head of the magic department was kneeling in front of a little girl. If I didn't film this scene and submit it to a publisher, I'm afraid I'd have to slap myself every night after graduation.

Because Xie Bai lowered his own presence, the surrounding students could only see that the person in front of Geralst seemed to be a little girl with white hair, but they could not see her specific appearance.

You might be able to see it more clearly if you get closer, but these days, very few students dare to go up and join in the fun.

Xie Bai was somewhat surprised to see Galloster kneeling in front of him right after he finished shouting.

"Wow... I only shouted for less than half a second, and you appeared so quickly. That's pretty timely."

Faced with Xie Bai's praise, Galloster quickly shook his head.

"You flatter me, sir. I will come to you as soon as possible whenever you need me."

As he spoke, Galloster secretly glanced at Xie Bai and then at Chrisos beside her.

People I've never met before...

Could it be that the reason the other person called me over was because of her?

Just as Galloster was pondering the reason, Xie Bai suddenly spoke up.

"I have a question for you."

"Please speak, sir."

"Before the Dome Academy was rebuilt, I had a small tower where I lived here. Now, I need you to find out where that tower originally stood."

"???"

Galloster was suddenly startled.

What the hell?

What do you mean by "the tower where he used to live is gone, and now he has to find it"?

No, how did he know that?

He didn't rebuild the dome academy, yet he stayed there all along, so he wasn't very familiar with many of the previous arrangements.

Besides, he didn't even know which tower Xie Bai lived in. What was he supposed to do?

Seemingly noticing Galloster's predicament, Xie Bai suddenly added another sentence.

"By the way, the little tower I used to live in used to be Ivy's residence. She gave it to me after she stopped living there."

Where did Ivy used to live?

Upon receiving this crucial information, Galloster quickly recalled all the relevant details.

Ivy was once the only teacher in the Department of Fate, and for this reason, there was only one residence for the teachers in the Department of Fate.

In his memory, there was a renovation report that proposed turning the faculty residences of the Fate Department into a treasure tower to store and protect the various treasures that had been collected.

He was the one who approved that renovation report, so he still had some recollection of it.

"I never thought this lousy job would actually be of some use; I almost died here."

After calming down, Galloster spoke to Xie Bai.

"Yes, sir. I can take you to that place now. Please follow me."

Xie Bai was taken aback when he saw Gallost get up and lead the way.

"Huh? So you really can find it. I was thinking that if you couldn't find it, I'd have to ask you to go find that dean. But since you can do it, there's no need to go through all that trouble."

Upon hearing this, Galloster, who had been remaining calm, coughed suddenly.

"Ahem...! It's alright, it's my honor to serve you, sir..."

With that, Gerald pinched his fingers, instantly summoning a pale blue magic circle on the ground.

As the magic circle lit up with a dazzling light, Xie Bai and the others found themselves teleported to another place.

【Dome Academy - Treasure Pagoda】

Looking at the tower, which was much more imposing than before, Xie Bai nodded.

"It looks much nicer than that little tower from before. Hmm... Cresos, would you like to come inside with me?"

When Xie Bai invited her inside, Krysos was suddenly a little surprised.

"This...this won't be necessary. After all, this seems to be your private matter, and there are some things I shouldn't see...I'll just wait outside. Don't worry, I won't be afraid."

Seeing Krysos's serious expression, Xie Bai had no choice but to speak.

"Alright then. Gabriel, you protect her until I return. And remember, don't let her go hungry."

Galloster nodded in reply.

"Yes, sir. By the way, this treasure tower is protected by a magic array. Someone needs to remove the restriction before we can enter. Please wait for me..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gailster saw Xie Bai walk to the treasure tower as if he were returning home, open the door, go inside, and then close it.

"Clang"
