The defeated saint is also on the way to tame the evil god today

But Xingmo didn't think so at all. She looked at Nuobo's trembling eyes and the blue veins on the back of his clenched fists, and something sank in her heart.

"Help him up." Xing Mo waved her hand lightly.

Several students immediately stepped forward and helped Nobo up.

Nobo tried to break free with some resistance, but he suddenly heard footsteps. He looked up and met a pair of emerald eyes.

Xingmo looked at Nuobo's trembling eyes calmly and said:

"Do you really want to become stronger?"

"I think..." Nob said tremblingly.

Xing Mo nodded silently, smiled lightly, and turned around immediately:

"I'll find you later."

After saying that, Xing Mo walked out of the Student Union door calmly under the students' stunned gazes.

Her back looked very frail, but each of her steps was filled with pride and confidence, which frightened the students so much that they dared not breathe for a moment.

It wasn't until the door was closed that Nobo came back to his senses, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.

He looked at the place where Xingmo disappeared, and couldn't believe his bravery just now.

......

As soon as the door of the student union was closed, Xingmo leaned against the wall and let out a long breath.

This kind of character really doesn't suit me...not at all...

Xing Mo recalled the tone she had tried so hard to create just now. She was imitating the character of a big boss in a novel, the kind of big boss who had an entire evil organization backing him up.

Although there seems to be an entire evil organization behind her...

"call..."

Xingmo sighed, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and straightened his tie.

The reason she took the time to act so pretentiously with Master Nobo was actually because she had a little plan in secret.

The Student Union is the most powerful student organization at Nefera Beta Magic Academy and the organization that has the most access to all kinds of students.

Therefore, Xingmo planned to develop his own power.

After all, the "exile ceremony" needs to be held at the magic academy, and Xingmo suspects that some help might be needed at that time.

Even if she doesn't need them, she will always have a place to use these people in the future.

However...the prerequisite for this connection is that she really wants to play the so-called "Dark Priestess".

It was so embarrassing and childish...Xingmo's fist hardened.

At this moment, a greeting came from beside her:

"The kitten pretends to be a tiger, and his head is sweating~"

Xing Mo turned her head and was surprised to find that Aurora was leaning against the same wall as her, with her small feet in uniform shoes slightly raised.

Oh no! When did she come? She's not going to follow me all the time, is she?

"Aren't you... still sleeping?" Xing Mo took a breath.

"I just woke up half an hour ago. I was so sleepy that I couldn't find you, so I ran straight to the academy..."

Aurora yawned, her blood-diamond eyes narrowed slightly, her eyelashes half-covering her pupils, and she looked sleepy.

"I'm still a little tired... um..."

Xingmo subconsciously stretched out her hand, wanting to rub Aurora's head, but suddenly stopped halfway.

Before she could retract it, Aurora's head came up on its own and bumped into Xingmo's hand, like a kitten begging for affection.

"Why do you seem a little afraid of me?" Aurora murmured softly while rubbing against him.

"No," Xingmo smiled bitterly, "Have you eaten?"

"Is there any need to ask..."

"Let's go to the cafeteria to eat something?" Xingmo pointed to the stairs.

"No, we want to eat what you cook." Aurora looked up and looked at Xingmo eagerly. "Just cook anything."

"puff..."

Xing Mo smiled slightly and nodded:

"Then let's go to the communal kitchen."

......

After waiting for Aurora to sit down at the table, Xingmo took the ingredients delivered by Fei Ge, put on her apron, and turned the kitchen knife in her hand.

"Let's just make a simple meal today. I'm a little hungry."

Having said this, Xingmo fiddled with the ingredients and started to work.

She first put a pile of noodles into the pot, covered it with a lid, and set it aside to cook.

Then, she took the pork fat, cut it into small pieces, mixed it with scallion and ginger slices, and fried it in a pan, adding the pork belly in the middle.

After about five minutes, when the meat turns golden brown, remove the green onion and ginger, and transfer the meat to a small plate for later use.

Next, add the dark soybean paste into the pan where the meat was fried, stir-fry until the oil and paste separate, then pour in the sweet bean sauce.

"It's so slow... Isn't it just a simple meal?" Aurora complained, shaking her little feet.

"It's just a simple process of making noodles. There really aren't many steps involved." Xing Mo replied calmly.

Next, she sprinkled rock sugar cubes into the cooking sauce, then poured in the fried meat that she had prepared earlier and stir-fried it with a wooden spoon.

The aroma of meat and sauce immediately filled the air, causing Aurora's stomach to growl uncontrollably.

"Does making the sauce require so many steps...?" Aurora was half curious and half complaining, unable to contain herself.

Xing Mo continued with his actions and said without turning his head:

"This is called Zhajiangmian (fried bean paste noodles) and it's actually a pretty common food. You can often find it on the streets of Dongcheng District. It's affordable and tastes good."

"It does smell wonderful." Aurora nodded in confirmation.

Xing Mo smiled slightly:

"Of course. My favorite food when I was a kid was noodles with soybean paste... Actually, it's not my favorite, but it's probably in the top three, right?"

"It can be ranked in the top three in the gourmet recipes?" Aurora was surprised. After all, Xingmo has always left her with the impression of being the "God of Food Appreciation", the kind with divine status.

Xing Mo smiled slightly:

"As for my childhood, you know, I grew up in an orphanage. I had no guardians back then, no one gave me pocket money, and I could only eat the three meals a day provided by the orphanage."

"I had awakened my string resonance talent relatively early, but going to school in Nefera Beta required a lot of money. To save up for tuition, I often did odd jobs outside, like being a newspaper boy."

"I went there every weekend. The money I earned in a day wasn't much, but it was enough for me to build up a small nest egg."

At this point, Xingmo added some green onions to the pot and continued to stir-fry with a wooden spoon:

"Although I've never had much desire for money, I still know how hard it is to be poor. I handed newspapers to those well-dressed gentlemen and ladies. Some of them were kind, while others weren't so nice. I've been scolded by them more than once or twice..."

"If you don't have a fireplace at home, the Citadel is actually quite cold... Did you know? In the area on the northern edge of the city, right in the port area and a few nearby residential areas, there's a profession called 'window knockers.' They get up at four in the morning so they can start knocking on windows at around five, waking up workers who need to be at work on time."

"As for why workers don't use alarm clocks to wake themselves up? The answer is very simple. Clocks are too luxurious. Many workers can't afford them at all, haha..."

Xingmo glanced back at Aurora and found that the little girl was listening intently.

She went on to say:

"At that time, I almost woke up at the same time as the window knockers, so that I could get the newspaper earlier and occupy the main traffic routes with more people, so that I could earn more money at the end of the day."

"So when I was a kid, I rarely ate breakfast. I was busy from early morning until around ten o'clock, only then could I sell the first batch of newspapers, and then find an opportunity to rest on the street."

"At that time, I would use part of the money I earned to buy a bowl of noodles with soybean paste."

As Xingmo spoke, she removed the sauce, which had been stir-fried until it was fresh and fragrant, from the heat and poured it into a small plate.

"There were more street vendors back then, and noodles with soybean paste weren't too expensive. I could go back to the shelter for dinner, and I didn't have to worry about rent. I was much better off than those poor people who could only afford rye bread."

"In the cold morning breeze, I sat on the street, eating delicious noodles with soybean paste. That was the happiest time of my day."

Xing Mo couldn't help but smile. Smelling the aroma of the fried sauce, she seemed to have really returned to that cold morning. The cold wind blew on her cheeks. She put her face close to the hot steam rising from the small bowl and showed a satisfied smile.

"So what happened next? Did you save enough for tuition?" Aurora asked curiously.

"Of course I saved it, but I didn't spend it. After learning about my situation, Mr. Lucius paid my tuition and often took me home to have dinner with Miriam. The money I earned from selling newspapers is still part of my savings."

As she said this, Xingmo took the noodles out of the pot and placed them on a plate. After cooling for a while, she poured the fried sauce mixed with meat pieces onto the noodles and stirred it with chopsticks.

"How amazing..." Aurora murmured.

"That experience taught me to cherish the peaceful life I have now," Xingmo said as she mixed the noodles, divided them into two bowls, and brought them to Aurora. "My life is really good now. At least I'm not living on the streets, and at least I can have a full meal every day."

Aurora happily grabbed the bowl of noodles and was about to reach out to take the chopsticks from Xingmo's hand, but Xingmo withdrew her hand.

She looked straight at Aurora and said word by word:

"Little Ancestor, tell me, if someone wants to destroy the peace that everyone enjoys, what should I do?"

10) White Kitten (Part 5) -4k-

Xing Mo asked this question casually, and at the same time stirred the noodles in the bowl with chopsticks, pretending to be just doing it casually.

She glanced at Aurora out of the corner of her eye and noticed that the little girl's eyes changed slightly.

Then, there was that same brilliant smile as always:

"Whoever disrupts the peace will, of course, be eliminated! As long as the bad guys are gone, won't everyone be able to live and work in peace?"

"Oh~ That makes sense..."

Xingmo nodded, handed the chopsticks to Aurora, sat opposite her, and started eating.

The fresh aroma of the fried sauce mixed with the chewy yet soft noodles was so delicious that Xingmo was dazzled quickly.

Aurora ate so much that her eyes were full of tears, like a kitten licking water frantically.

What did that little guy mean by that? Whoever disrupts the peace will be eliminated?

Could it be that the goddess destroyed the peace? No... that doesn't make sense no matter how you think about it. The current peace was created by the goddess. She has no reason to destroy it...

Moreover, Aurora is an alien god. What motivation does she have to eliminate harm for the people of this world?

"..."

After a little thought, Xing Mo said indirectly:

"By the way, I saw a very interesting story the day before yesterday. Are you interested?"

"What story?" Aurora spoke slurredly without even looking up.

Xingmo cleared her throat:

"There was a kingdom that enjoyed long years of peace and prosperity. Its royal family was enlightened, and its people lived in harmony. But one day, a bandit claiming to be a descendant of the ancient kingdom entered the city. He declared his intention to overthrow the old kingdom's rule and, deeming the current king a usurper, massacred the royal family and proclaimed himself king."

"After the bandit became king, the kingdom fell into a miserable state. The people were living in misery and the land was full of dead bodies."

"When later generations evaluated this period of history, they were divided into two camps, which were as follows..."

"One faction believes that the bandits' actions were justified because they are indeed descendants of an ancient kingdom. That ancient kingdom was once prosperous, but was slaughtered by the new royal family and driven into exile until they returned after hiding their power abroad."

"Another faction believes that the bandits' actions were wrong because the kingdom was at peace at the time, and their bloodbath for the so-called 'legitimate royal power' destroyed the hard-won peace, which went against the interests of the people."

Xingmo mixed the noodles without even looking up:

"Which side do you think is right? The false king who maintains peace, or the true king who destroys peace?"

The story Xingmo asked originated from a historical anecdote. If I remember correctly, it should be the history of a small principality in the Faro area, which aroused the thinking of many scholars at that time.

She wanted to use this story to warn Aurora and see her attitude.

"Gu..."

Aurora swallowed the noodles in her mouth, bit the tip of her chopsticks, and thought for a moment.

Then she said slowly:

"We think from this scoring perspective..."
