Becoming a wet nurse is not the end of the story.

I opened the gold coins inside and carefully counted them. There were exactly 25 coins, no more and no less. Hmm, that's 5 more than I expected. If I calculate it this way, I can probably upgrade even more skills.

Looking helplessly at Lin Xueyin's face, which looked like she was rich, Ailiya waved the letter of recommendation in her hand at her speechlessly, but still received no response. She could only curl her fingers and knock hard on the head of the girl who wished she could crawl into a money bag.

With a cry of pain, Lin Xueyin looked innocently at the girl in front of her, who was breathing on her fingers and preparing to do it again, her eyes filled with tears.

"Aria, why did you hit me?"

"I'll hit you. Why would I keep you around? I'll give you a letter of recommendation. I really don't know what you're thinking. So many people want this letter of recommendation but can't get it. And you, you're just drooling over the gold coins."

Lin Xueyin vigorously wiped her mouth, her angry (and cute) eyes conveying that she hadn't actually drooled at all.

"Alright, alright, don't look at me like that. Although my teacher gave you this letter of recommendation, he still hopes to meet you sometime. If His Majesty hadn't suddenly had important military news today, my teacher would have met you today."

"Hmm, hmm, maybe when we have the chance, maybe when we have the chance." Lin Xueyin nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and Ailiya was already pulling her hand and leading her outside.

"Go to the college to register first, and your food and accommodation problems will be solved."

Volume Two: The Academy Chapter Two - Enrollment

As the carriage moved forward, a massive gate gradually came into view in a pair of azure eyes. The ancient gate, adorned with various exquisite yet inexplicable patterns, sat there.

"This is our academy, the largest academy on the Tianluo Continent."

Blinking, Lin Xueyin's fingers reached out to touch the sturdy door, but then withdrew. Looking at the other person's proud expression, she couldn't help but mutter a complaint.

"This must be the only academy on the Tianluo Continent."

"No, Lin Xueyin, you're slandering me, you know? The Northern Beast Alliance alone already has three academies, okay?"

"Hehehe, so there's more than just this one academy." He chuckled dryly and scratched his head. This was completely unpredictable. In most otherworlds, wouldn't the dissemination of knowledge be taken very seriously?

"Let me do the math for you. Although the elves have their own traditions, they also conduct small-scale learning in some places. As for the Beastman Alliance, each tribe has its own academy. As for the demons, it goes without saying that there are no large academies, but small ones are everywhere."

Looking at Lin Xueyin's incredulous expression, Ailiya could only sigh, "As the last human race to gain a foothold on this continent, we are already far behind other countries in this aspect alone."

Suddenly the air grew heavy, making Lin Xueyin, who had started the conversation, feel somewhat uncomfortable. She could only scratch her head and let out a few dry, meaningless laughs.

"Aria, you're being a bit too serious. It's not that exaggerated. At least it's the largest academy on the entire continent."

"What's the point? This academy can only offer courses for warriors and mages right now, unlike other countries which have so many different categories."

This was not Arya's answer; instead, a strange voice sounded from behind.

Turning around, a beautiful and elegant figure came into view, with long, golden hair that looked like waves and a pair of captivating emerald green eyes.

She was full-figured but not bulky; instead, she had a perfectly proportioned figure, which made Lin Xueyin, a man, unable to look away.

"Greetings, Teacher Andariel." The elaborate aristocratic greeting directed at the visitor made Lin Xueyin feel a pang of sympathy for her friend.

"Oh, it's Arya. I heard you led a team to Yorktown on the lower border this time. How was it? Did anything interesting happen there that I could hear about?"

"A lot has really happened. If you don't mind, I can tell you about it slowly. I think you'll find it interesting."

"Oh? Then I'll wait and see when you come to me. But who is this girl? I've seen most of the new students this year, but this girl is a bit unfamiliar."

The beautiful teacher, Andariel, turned her gaze to Lin Xueyin, her emerald green eyes sweeping over her with a questioning look.

"By the way, Yukine, this is Teacher Andariel, who is also one of the most outstanding instructors at the Holy Priest Academy."

"Huh? Doesn't that mean you're my future teacher?" Although the other party kept making modest excuses, Lin Xueyin chose to believe Ailiya's words.

It's completely unimaginable that this seemingly gentle older sister is actually the most powerful priest in the entire academy.

"A future teacher? Little girl, are you a student at our Holy Priest Academy?"

"Well, not yet. I'm here to enroll."

"Shall we enroll now?"

He frowned slightly, looking a little troubled, then turned his gaze to Aria. "You should know that the enrollment period for new students has already passed. If you want to re-enroll, you'll not only have to pay exorbitant tuition fees, but also..."

"Teacher Andariel, I know. This is a letter of recommendation from my teacher to Xueyin." He nudged Lin Xueyin, who was already frightened by the high tuition fees, with his elbow, signaling her to quickly take out the letter of recommendation he had given her.

With trembling hands, Lin Xueyin took out the letter of recommendation. Her questioning gaze held a hint of pleading, hoping the other party would show some leniency and not ask for an exorbitant amount. She knew her own situation; the gold coins were just a pittance.

"Did your teacher give this to you? I never thought your teacher, who is so meticulous in everything he does, would write a letter of recommendation. It seems he values ​​you, his student, quite a bit."

Opening the letter, I read the recommendation letter inside. It was a very ordinary description, at most saying that this was a very talented priest who had also taught himself some healing skills.

"Your name is Lin Xueyin?"

After reading the letter, Andariel remained silent, simply gazing calmly at the girl before him. Yet, even with her serene expression, the slight upturn of her lips exuded a gentle warmth.

"I am, um..." I really wanted to ask if I could get a discount on the tuition, but I felt embarrassed in front of such a beautiful girl, thinking that it would leave a bad impression on her.

Seeing that Lin Xueyin seemed a little lost, Ailiya gently stepped forward, took her hand, and said, "Don't worry, you'll definitely be able to enroll smoothly. You can rest assured about that."

I'm not worried about being turned away; I'm worried about the exorbitant tuition fees. Lin Xueyin wanted to roll her eyes at the other woman, but most of her attention was focused on the female teacher, and she didn't have time to pay attention to this woman who was clearly out of the loop.

"Don't worry, since you have Mavis, one of the Four Horsemen, as your recommendation, you will definitely be able to enroll. Come with me, I'll take you to complete the enrollment procedures."

Trembling with fear, Andariel arrived at a door marked "Admissions Office." As the door was pushed open, the interior was spotless, with items arranged very neatly, making one feel very comfortable upon entering.

"Teacher Andariel, what brings you here?" A surprised male voice rang out from behind a desk.

"Ms. Silin, I'm just here to guide one new student into the school."

"For new student enrollment, Teacher Andariel, as you know, the school has regulations. The enrollment period for new students has already passed. If you want to enroll, you will need letters of recommendation from some people."

She spoke in a very formal and methodical manner, without changing her tone at all because the visitor was a beautiful teacher, which made Lin Xueyin think more highly of the academy.

"Of course, this is a letter of recommendation from the Silver of Order. I think a recommendation from one of the Four Horsemen should carry enough weight."

"Oh? It's Mavis. That guy rarely gets involved in these kinds of things. Since it's his recommendation, there shouldn't be any problems."

As they spoke, they turned their gaze to Lin Xueyin. One of them was a teacher, and the other was a well-known student in the school, so the new student could only be this unfamiliar face.

"The total cost of room and board plus tuition is 25 gold coins."

"Huh??????"

Volume Two: The Academy Chapter Three: The New Librarian

The girl, with her long golden hair styled into a neat ponytail, arranged the returned books on the table neatly and then sorted them into categories, sending them to the bookshelves where they should be stored. She then completed her assigned task with a smile.

"Sister Xueyin, you're at work so early? Don't you have to go to class?"

Two adorable little black-haired girls blinked their big, cute eyes and looked at her with smiles. Lin Xueyin bent down and patted their little heads with their pigtails.

"Why are you two here so early? Aren't you usually going to learn assassination from Professor Kogas?"

"Our teacher is away on a business trip today, so we didn't have anything to do and came here to help out." The two little girls said in unison, their eyes already squinting with laughter.

"You guys are testing me again, aren't you?" He affectionately ruffled the hair of one of the little girls, his tone filled with doting affection.

"Kariel, stop causing trouble with your sister."

The two adorable little girls, who looked exactly alike and had no difference whatsoever, pouted unhappily after hearing Lin Xueyin's words, seemingly very dissatisfied with what she had said.

"Hmph, you guessed right again. Honestly, very few people in the academy can see that."

"Exactly, exactly, are you cheating? Otherwise, how could you guess it every time?"

Looking at the two little girls in front of him with a wry smile, he could only say, "After you give your names, I will naturally add you to the character's friends panel. When you reappear, if I want to know about you, I can naturally bring up your character's basic information."

If she said it out loud, the other person might think she had lost her mind, so Lin Xueyin consciously kept quiet and instead stroked the two little girls' heads with a doting smile.

"Hmph, I hate Yukine-neechan now."

Kashar angrily shook off the hand that was hanging on her head, made a face at Lin Xueyin, stuck out her tongue, and then skipped away to the other side.

"Sister Xueyin, my sister..."

"Alright, I understand. You two go and rest for a while. I still have a lot of work to do." After gently seeing the two little girls off, Lin Xueyin looked at the books piled up on the table and couldn't help but sigh, recalling her enrollment experience.

"25 gold coins! That's 25 gold coins! I don't even have that many assets in total."

With a mournful face, Lin Xueyin looked pleadingly at Andariel, hoping she could say a few words for her. Wasn't she a holy priest? Surely she was a very kind person.

However, please don't go! Please don't go! Shouldn't you wait until I enroll in school before leaving?

"Um, Xueyin, I remember there were exactly 25 gold coins in the purse the teacher gave you, right?" Feeling sorry for Lin Xueyin's pitiful look, and thinking she had forgotten about the purse, he helped her recall.

Uh, suddenly feeling like she'd been stabbed in the back, Lin Xueyin turned around helplessly, looking pitifully at Ailiya who was innocently staring at her. She opened her mouth, but nothing came out.

"Alright, hurry up and pay the money. We'll be assigning dorm rooms later, so be careful not to be late and there won't be a place for you."

"Huh? I, I'll hand it over right away." He shakily took out a small purse from his bag, watched expectantly as the other person took it, padded it with his hand, and then opened it to carefully count the gold coins inside.

Under Lin Xueyin's reluctant gaze, he casually placed it on the table. "Well, the money is just right. I'll give you the key to the dormitory now. There are quite a few new students this year, so the dormitory is a bit tight. You can go to Building B in Area C. There are still a few rooms available there. Here is the key."

"Oh, right, each dormitory has its own cafeteria that provides three meals a day. Of course, if you don't like the food, you can go to the college's main cafeteria, which has food from all over the country. However, you need to pay for it there. But judging from your appearance, you probably can't afford it."

He glanced at the little girl's face, which had changed color, and for some reason, suddenly blurted out, "Looks like I was right."

Of course I know you're right, but the thing is, do I need you to say you're right? Don't be so blunt. Gritting her teeth, Lin Xueyin glared at the other person, determined never to see this annoying person again.

"Xueyin, you can actually come to me. I can take you out to eat then."

"No, no need. I think the dormitory cafeteria will be fine." Scratching her head, Lin Xueyin felt embarrassed to trouble Ailiya again once she got to the academy, after all, she knew that Ailiya wasn't wealthy either.

As Andariel reached the door, he overheard the two girls' conversation and sighed softly. "Have you forgotten that we, the Holy Priests, are essentially the doctors within the academy? Moreover, we also have to take care of the academy's library duties."

"Oh right, I forgot, Yukine. Actually, because there are relatively few people in the Holy Priest Department and not many classes, most of their time is spent on academy affairs, mainly the daily cleaning of the library and the management of the academy's medical room."

Blinking, she finally heard what she had been eagerly anticipating: "They receive a monthly allowance, not much, but enough to cover their daily needs."

"That's fantastic."

"This is so unlucky..." Looking at the tall library, Lin Xueyin felt resentful when she learned that as a freshman, she had to work as a librarian there. She thought that being a school doctor would earn her much more money.

Librarians only receive a fixed allowance, which is nowhere near as lucrative as a hospital pastor treating students, whose allowance is calculated based on performance.

The table was covered with books. Lin Xueyin’s daily work, besides teaching, consisted of taking notes and handling the borrowing and returning of books by students and teachers.

It's so boring and tedious. If it weren't for the two cute little girls keeping me company, I probably would have set this shabby library on fire long ago. Of course, that would only be possible if the fireproof array prevented any open flames from being lit.

However, Lin Xueyin was unaware that outside, because she had become a librarian, the people who came to borrow books had already started spreading the word that a new holy priest was a great beauty and was now working as a librarian.

A gentle smile, a soft voice, a beautiful face, a slender and alluring figure—most importantly, she currently has no boyfriend. Note, no boyfriend; she hasn't had any intimate contact with any man. She's pure and innocent, like someone waiting for the big bad wolf to visit her.
