He waved his hand casually, his tone relaxed as if he were just handing over a box of chocolates, "Take it, it's a small gift."

"A little gift?!" Lu Mingfei's voice almost split as he pointed at the gleaming black sports car with its sleek lines. "This thing could buy a building in my hometown!"

“To be precise, it can buy three buildings.” Caesar shrugged and casually tossed the keys over. “A day’s freedom is the stake. You bet and you lose.”

Lu Mingfei hurriedly caught the key, feeling as if he were holding a red-hot branding iron, and wished he could shove it back immediately.

He looked to Frilian for help. The silver-haired elf circled the sports car, her fingertips lightly tracing the body. "This forging craftsmanship is even more refined than that of the dwarves."

Caesar raised an eyebrow: "Miss Frillian, are you interested?"

Frillie looked up and blinked: "Hmm, it would be nice to take it apart and study it."

"No, no, no!" Lu Mingfei quickly stopped her, "We can't afford to pay for this car if it's torn up!"

Caesar laughed and patted Lu Mingfei on the shoulder: "The car is yours now, take it apart as you like. Also..."

He handed over a key. "The key to the Norton Mansion is yours."

Lu Mingfei: "???"

"An additional wager for a day of freedom," Caesar said with a smile. "Both Chu Zihang and I have something to give you."

Lu Mingfei wanted to refuse, but Frillian leaned close to his ear and whispered, "I accept. If I have an independent space, I can set up a magical barrier, research alchemy, and even try interdimensional communication."

Lu Mingfei's ears burned, and he inexplicably took the key.

"We really can't accept Murasame!"

Half an hour later, Lu Mingfei, covered in sweat, pressed down on the knife Chu Zihang handed him, almost kneeling down before this cold-faced senior brother.

Chu Zihang said expressionlessly, "A day of freedom as the wager."

"Senior brother! How many years have you had this knife? If I take it, won't the Lionheart Society assassinate me in the middle of the night?" Lu Mingfei shook his head frantically. "Besides, I can't even handle a kitchen knife properly. Giving this thing to me would be a complete waste!"

Chu Zihang was silent for two seconds before withdrawing Murasame: "Next mission, I'll take the hit for you."

That's even more terrifying!

Frillie stood at the entrance of the girls' dormitory, clutching her college uniform and toiletries. Her silver hair was loosely tied in a bun at the back of her head, making her look like a delicate doll.

"Hey, a freshman?" A red-haired girl peeked out from around the corner of the corridor, a lollipop dangling from her mouth, and looked Frilian up and down with interest. "You're that A-level special recruit? Frilian?"

Frillie nodded.

The red-haired girl, Chen Motong, or rather Nuonuo, grinned and put her arm around Nuonuo's shoulder: "Come on, I'll take you to meet your roommate!"

In the dormitory, Susie sat at her desk wiping a short knife. When she saw Frilian enter, she nodded gently and said, "Hello, I'm Susie, Chu Zihang's friend."

Nono added with a grin: "Girlfriend in the making."

Susie threw a knife with a blank expression. Nono turned her head to dodge it, and the tip of the knife hummed as it hit the door panel.

Frillie blinked: "You two have a really good relationship."

Nuonuo laughed loudly: "That's right! By the way, I heard that you and Lu Mingfei have a special relationship?"

Frillie tilted her head: "He was the first person I ever met in this world."

Nono and Susie exchanged a glance and simultaneously revealed a meaningful smile.

"Oh, the first one~"

Frilian: "?"

Lu Mingfei pushed open the dormitory door, and before he could even marvel at how nice the place was, he was stunned by the scene before him.

Fingel von Frings, the famous repeat student from Kassel College, lay sprawled on the sofa, potato chips in his left hand and a can of cola in his right, with seven or eight takeout boxes spread out in front of him, and a StarCraft match recording playing on the TV.

"Yo! S-class boss!" Fingel raised a can of cola in greeting. "Welcome to your friendly dormitory!"

Lu Mingfei's lips twitched: "How come it's you? Fingel, what brings you to my dorm?"

"Why can't it be me?" Fingel said matter-of-factly. "Principal Angers gave me special permission to be your life coach, even though I'm a G-level good-for-nothing!"

Lu Mingfei: "You're clearly just here to freeload!"

Fingel sat up abruptly, lowering his voice mysteriously: "Junior brother, I heard you acquired Caesar's Bugatti Veyron?"

Lu Mingfei took a half-step back warily: "What do you want?"

Fingel rubbed his hands together: "Can I borrow it for a couple of days?"

"no!"

"Can I borrow your student card to order takeout?"

Lu Mingfei handed over the card with suspicion. Finger took it and his fingers flew across the phone screen. Five minutes later...

"Ding dong!"

The doorbell rang, and six waiters in white uniforms filed in, pushing a food cart laden with lobster, steak, foie gras, truffle pasta, and even a whole roast suckling pig.

Lu Mingfei: "??????"

Fingel nodded in satisfaction: "S-level privileges are great! A deluxe package, delivered right to the dorm!"

Lu Mingfei pointed to the food cart with a trembling hand: "How much did this cost?!"

Fingel patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, your student card balance is enough to live on for half a year."

"Fingal, do you know the meaning of taking every last penny and using it like dirt?"

After thinking for a moment, Lu Mingfei took out his phone and sent a message to Frilian: "Fingal ordered takeout, do you want to come and eat?"

Three minutes later, Frillian appeared at the door, followed by Nono and Susie, who looked on with curiosity.

Nono whistled: "Wow, S-level treatment is really something else."

Susie looked at the table full of delicious food and raised an eyebrow slightly: "Is this a Western-style Manchu Han Imperial Feast?"

Fingel warmly invited, "Come on in, don't be shy! It's Lu Mingfei's card after all!"

Five people sat around the dining table. Fingel wolfed down his food, Nono grinned and snatched the largest piece of steak, Susie elegantly cut foie gras, and Frilian muttered to herself over a plate of mango pudding.

Lu Mingfei sighed, picked up a piece of roast suckling pig. It was delicious, but unfortunately, it was swiped with his card.

Nono rested her chin on her hand and looked at him with a smile: "Lu Mingfei, I didn't expect you to be so good at taking care of people."

Susie nodded: "Frilian's 'young boyfriend' is indeed quite nice."

Lu Mingfei spat out a mouthful of cola: "W-what little boyfriend?!"

Frillie calmly licked the cream off the spoon: "The pudding is delicious."

Fingel raises the Coke can: "A toast to S-Class and his Elf Lady!"

Lu Mingfei panicked: "Fingal, stop stirring things up!"

Title: Shocking! S-Class Freshman Lu Mingfei's Word of Power is Time Zero! Is Principal Angers destined for successor?!

Posted by: Flame Dragon Slayer (Head of News Department, Fingel)

Dear students, the smoke of battle has just cleared on Freedom Day, but the shock left by our S-class freshman Lu Mingfei has only just begun! According to reliable sources, which I witnessed with my own eyes, Lu Mingfei's Word of Power is the legendary Time Zero—yes, the same BUG-level ability that Principal Angers has that can slow down time!

Even more outrageous is that he not only used this ability to take down Caesar and Chu Zihang, but also seemed to have awakened a dual power of words (the light burst effect at the end of Freedom Day is questionable and needs to be verified).

So the question is, does Lu Mingfei deserve the first S-level rating in Kassel in forty years?

1. Dick Tudor (Student Council President Caesar)

"I can attest that Time Zero is real. However, Lu Mingfei doesn't possess dual incantations; the Light Burst was likely the work of his 'cousin,' Frillian."

2. Murasame (Chuzhai Zihang, President of the Lionheart Society)

"His time zero is genuine, but he lacks control over it, and there are obvious backlashes after using it."

3. Night Watchman (Vice Principal)

"Wow, another time zero? Angers, you old geezer, you've secretly taken on an apprentice?"

4. Cambridge folding knife (principal)

"@Night Watchman, drink less alcohol. @Lu Mingfei's bloodline rating has been verified multiple times and is beyond doubt."

5. Greenland Shadow (Executive Director Schneider)

"His S-rank potential needs to be tested in actual combat; we recommend adding him to next month's mission roster."

6. The Financial Speculator (Disciplinary Committee Chairman Manstein)

10. Useless Senior Brother (Fingal's Trumpet)

"I bet 500 that Lu Mingfei will get a perfect score on his 3E exam! It's open for business!"

Fingel lay on the sofa, his fingers flying across the keyboard on his laptop, with half an energy bar dangling from his mouth.

Lu Mingfei sat opposite him, staring at the massive number of comments refreshing the forum page, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"Finger! You're putting me on the hot seat!" Lu Mingfei wailed.

Fingel grinned, spraying energy bar crumbs onto the keyboard. "What are you afraid of? An S-class should have S-class status! Look, even Principal Angers is backing you up."
