It's weird to apply for Witch Academy as a boy

"Goodbye, both of you. We will always remember your contributions to Ninglan New City." When Ninglan Qiuyu saw that we were about to leave, he subconsciously saluted us as a city guard.

I subconsciously looked at them and nodded slightly as a response.

Ning Lanqiuyu then commanded the city guards to start clearing the battlefield. After all, they had to restore normal order, and the evacuation of the crowd could not continue like this. What's more, this was a place with a huge flow of people like the Ninglanxiang Hotel. The evacuation of the crowd caused great trouble to the residents here.

Moreover, for such a big event that happened in the city, Ninglan Township Fort will definitely have to respond. It can be foreseen that more troublesome things will happen next, but these will cause trouble for the city lord Ninglan Qiuyun.

At this moment, I accompanied Sister Bai to leave the place where the battle had just taken place, avoiding the crowd and reporters with cameras. After walking out of the blockade area, Sister Bai was still the same.

I understand that there is no need to rush into anything at this moment. Only when you figure things out can you truly move on from this kind of thing.

However, the shock brought by the truth of this fact seems to be too great for Sister Bai...

It was bigger than I had expected. Perhaps I had no sense of belonging to this world and could not empathize with it. Of course, it could also be because of the shackles of the earth veins.

If the shackles of the earth veins have not been cut off, it means that there is still a connection with the original world.

Maybe I understand why many senior sisters who have graduated from the Witch Academy have not broken through and left this world. Perhaps it is because of this sense of belonging to this world?

As to whether this sense of belonging is the work of world consciousness and whether one does not want one's children to escape from one's control, perhaps further understanding is needed.

"Sister Bai, are you feeling better?"

Chapter 307 Ninglan New City History Museum

"Hmm? It's okay, Xiaohan. When did I ever need you, Xiaohan, to care about me?" Bai Yu said to me with a forced smile as if he had just reacted.

"What? Sister Bai, can't you let me care about you for a moment?"

"of course can."

"Okay, isn't that enough?" I said to Sister Bai in a slightly relaxed tone, but the atmosphere at the moment was still a little heavy for some reason.

After walking out of the blockade area, there were more people on the street, which eased the mood a little.

There are also many city guards here to maintain order, and of course there is no shortage of people who want to watch the fun.

"Sister Bai, do you care about what happened just now?" At this moment, I took the lead in breaking the silence again and asked.

Sister Bai's transformation from before to now was entirely caused by the words of that nightmare demon, so apart from this matter, I really don't know what topic to start with.

"What happened just now? What happened? I'm fine."

"You don't want to admit it... and you say everything is fine. It's obvious that something is wrong. Are you trying to lie to me?" I ruthlessly exposed Sister Bai's pretending to be stupid.

"Haha... please give me... Sister Bai some privacy. Some things always take time to accept, but... Xiaohan, you don't seem surprised at all." Bai Yu turned his head to look at Xiaohan who was holding his hand, and said.

"Indeed...Because, before that damned nightmare said this, I already had this guess, but her words only confirmed my guess."

"So you've already guessed it..."

"It's a very simple and obvious truth, isn't it? Sister Bai should have thought of it, but she's just unwilling to face this problem?"

"Xiao Han, now that you mention it... it seems to be true. Thinking back on it, it seems that a lot of things can be explained. I'm sorry, Xiao Han, because this matter made you worry about me." Bai Yu was stunned when he heard what I said, and then seemed to think of something.

"Since you've admitted that you made me worry, then Sister Bai, have you figured it out now? If you haven't figured it out, then it's pointless for me to worry."

I took Sister Bai's hand and sat down on a bench as we passed by. I also pulled Sister Bai to sit down as well. Maybe we should really sit down and have a good talk about this matter.

"What was Sister Bai worried about at that moment?"

"Worried... I wouldn't say I'm worried... I just felt like something was broken at that moment." Bai Yu was also organizing his words at this moment, trying to express his inner thoughts.

But if everything in this world could be described clearly in words, then there wouldn’t be so many misunderstandings and grievances in this world.

"Is that so? This shows that...Sister Bai has a strong sense of belonging to the world we live in."

“A sense of belonging?”

"Yes, a sense of belonging, a concept that cannot be described in words. Sister Bai, have you ever thought about why? When you dig deeper into many things, you will have doubts. Sister Bai, do you have any memories of the world we live in?"

"As a souvenir... I don't know, it seems that there is no such thing as... No, there is also you, Xiaohan."

"Ah~" I deliberately dragged out the sound, and then moved closer to Sister Bai, "Am I so important in Sister Bai's heart?"

"Silly boy, of course it is." Bai Yu stretched out his hand and pinched my little face as I leaned forward and said with a smile.

"So Sister Bai, you still can't figure out why you have such a sense of belonging to the original world?"

"Stupid Xiaohan, if a person has no sense of belonging to the world he lives in, then how tiring would that life be..."

"tired?"

"Aren't you tired? Xiaohan, I can see that you don't seem to agree with my point of view."

"Of course... just because it has always been this way doesn't mean it should be this way. Sister Bai, what do you think... is the sense of belonging a scam imposed on us by the world? Or is it all due to the limitations of cognition that has led to a dilemma in self-cognition?"

"Xiao Han, why are you talking to me about this? Of course I know that it has always been this way doesn't mean it should be this way, but isn't the scam you mentioned too much?"

"Have you passed? Sister Bai, do you still remember what I told you about the earth vein shackles... and world consciousness? With these variables, do you still think it's impossible that this is a scam?"

"this…"

"In fact, we don't need to worry so much about these things, such as a sense of belonging and invasion by outsiders. Living in the present is the most important thing. Sister Bai, do you hate the Witch Academy after knowing all this? Will you continue to go? Do you still want to become an extraordinary witch?"

"I... don't hate, nor do I have such thoughts." Bai Yu shook his head and said.

"Yes, we also agreed to become extraordinary witches together, explore the void, and choose a world we like to live in until we get tired of it..."

"Okay, Xiaohan, don't talk about this kind of thing in this situation."

"Hehe, as long as Sister Bai still remembers it." Seeing that what I said was effective, I didn't mention it again. After all, I really didn't know how to comfort her about this matter. Instead of venting, it would be better to divert her attention directly.

Here, somewhere in the ruins outside the city.

"This...where is this?" At this moment, Tan Han looked at the ruins around him. After a trace of confusion flashed across his eyes, he quickly observed the surroundings to confirm whether there was any danger.

"Is it true... the sleeping curse... the consciousness is really trapped in... this is another world?"

Tan Han looked around and found that all the people who came with her were gone.

"It seems that we have not arrived at the same place?" Thinking of this, Tan Han no longer hesitated and set off immediately. After all, staying in the same place would lead to no results. Only by moving can he find a glimmer of possibility.

She came here this time to lift the so-called sleeping curse. She must find the source of it and then eliminate it completely!

In this way, this so-called curse should be lifted.

Of course, there is a more important thing, which is to find other people who are in the same sleep as her. She can't just watch others die here.

Everything she needs to face at this moment is unknown, and she needs to explore it slowly on her own.

"Who? Who's there!"

"Hey? Is it... Sister Tan Han? It's me! Minian."

"Minnie Ann? Are you near me?"

"It's really Sister Tan Han! That's great, I thought I had to act alone." Upon seeing Tan Han, Minian excitedly went over to meet her. After all, when you arrive in a strange place, having a companion is more important than anything else.

"Minnie Ann... That's great. Since you're nearby, maybe others are too. Let's go see if anyone else is there first."

"That's true... So should we split up and look for them? What if we get separated?"

"How about this..." Tan Han felt the source of magic power and the spell book in her body, and everything seemed normal. "I'll leave a spell mark on you, and I'll find you when the time comes. Also, be careful, Minnie Ann. We are very unfamiliar with this place. If there is any danger, put your own safety first and don't resist."

"I know, Sister Tan Han."

Minian looked at the mark that Tan Han had set on herself, and she no longer hesitated and began to act separately. However, they still had some self-awareness and did not go too far away. After all, no one knew what kind of danger they would encounter here.

In Ninglan New City.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Yang Yuehan and Miss Bai Yu?"

"Hmm? Yes, you are?"

At this moment, Sister Bai and I looked at the old man who suddenly appeared in front of us and asked.

The fact that the other party can call out our names means that he must have known us through some channel, and it is very likely related to the city lord.

"Oh, I finally found you. I... I am a staff member of Ninglanxiang Hotel. The city lord specifically asked me to prepare a place for you two to live. It would be convenient for you two to go to Ninglanxiang Hotel with me, or I should tell them directly..."

"Just tell us directly, we have no plans to go back for the time being." I said, after all, it was still early.

After knowing our room number, the old man stopped disturbing us and left quietly.

But wasn't Ninglanxiang Hotel attacked before? How come it's back to normal so quickly? Forget it. I guess the nightmare didn't destroy the buildings there.

"Hmm... where were we talking about just now? I almost forgot about it because I was interrupted."

"Since you've forgotten everything, that means the topic just now is not important, right?"

"That's true!" I nodded. After all, the reason I was chatting with Sister Bai like this was because I hoped that Sister Bai would not be confused by the words of that damn nightmare demon.

After chatting for so long, I roughly understood why Sister Bai was like this. Maybe the answer to the question is very simple, but I thought it was too complicated.

"So what should we do next? We can't just sit here, right?" I stood up, patted the wrinkles on my clothes, then turned around and looked at Sister Bai.

"Hmm? Xiaohan, are you asking me what I'm going to do next? You should ask yourself, right? I just need to stay by your side."

"Well... then, let's go look for the history museum in Ninglan New City? The mayor said earlier that he had greeted the curator or something, so... let's go there and see if we can find anything. After all... according to that nightmare, this is also part of our main world. Maybe... we can see something useful, even history from thousands of years ago."

"Want to see history?"

"Well, Sister Bai, don't you want to go? Then just accompany me to take a look, please~ please~"

"Alright, alright, Xiaohan, don't make such a coquettish noise!"

"What? Can't you stand such noise?" I asked with a smile on my face.

"That's not the case. It's mainly because Xiaohan, you're acting like a spoiled child... It still feels a little weird..."

"Disobedience?"

"Isn't she cute?" Bai Yu also stood up with a smile. She really liked Xiao Han acting like a spoiled child to her like this. She liked her for no reason at all.

Afterwards, we walked around the city, asking for directions to the History Museum as we headed towards it.

"You two... are outsiders, right? The city lord told me that you two..." At this moment, the old man standing in front of us is the curator of the huge history museum behind us. Although this place looks like a prosperous area, the number of people in the venue is not even as many as the people in the open square outside.

When we first arrived, the old man was still basking in the sun on a lounge chair placed at the door.

"Is the city lord so efficient?"

"Of course, that's the city lord's style of doing things. It's just a phone call. I didn't expect that there are still people who would pay attention to the history of Ninglan New City. Do you need me to take you to see it?"

"Wait, this museum only collects and records the history of Ninglan New City?" I asked.

"Yes, it is the history of Ninglan New City. It also contains photos of the Ninglan City Lords of all generations and their achievements. My favorite is the one left by the first Ninglan City Lord..."

The old man introduced us and led us into the History Museum. The first thing we saw was a huge lobby. The curator knew the collections in the museum like the back of his hand. Even though we didn't say anything, he talked for a long time. Maybe this was his romance, or maybe it was because he hadn't shared these things that he valued with others for too long.

When we walked in and found that there were not many visitors inside, I should have thought that the people in Ninglan New City did not pay much attention to history. After all, it was just the history of a city. A whole thousand years of history was condensed in a history museum, and it was even... a little empty. This really didn't arouse people's interest.

And just as the curator said, what is recorded here is the history of Ninglan New City, and there is no record of the history before that, no relevant records, only related collections. But this is meaningless, because these collections before the establishment of Ninglan New City are mostly found in the ruins once you leave the city. Without corresponding historical interpretations, it is impossible to understand what the world was like before that.

But according to the nightmare, if the outsiders forcefully occupied the main world, then it would definitely be a very brutal war.

"Thank you... It seems like it's been a long time since I told others about this history. Although I know you probably didn't listen much, right?"

"Um... sorry, I thought this place had the history that led to the ruins outside Ninglan New City thousands of years ago."

"There's nothing to apologize for. I haven't talked to anyone like this in a long time. But are you curious about the war that happened a thousand years ago? I'm really sorry, that period of history... has been lost... I only remember what was passed down by word of mouth. It was a war that affected the entire world. I don't know the rest. Who was the enemy, who won in the end, what was the outcome, these are all impossible to verify..." At this point, the elderly curator shook his head.

But we know that those extraordinary races won that war and... established a new order in this world.

The people of the main world failed, and became a pasture for those extraordinary academies to divide up their talents... Maybe it sounds a bit harsh to say this, but there is actually no need to put it another way. Now think about it, when birth restrictions were relaxed and childbirth was encouraged, wasn't this in the hope of giving birth to a large number of talents?

I vaguely remember that my step-parents are pregnant with their third child, oh no, it should be their second child, and I heard that I am not the biological father? But I don't want to verify this now.

I don't know if it's a brother or a sister.

None of this has anything to do with me anymore.

However, when I walked deeper into the history museum, I saw something that interested me very much. It seemed to be a piece of... fragment?

But I saw runes on it.

"This was once an ordinary ruin outside the city, but someone gave it special value. The first Ninglan City Lord comprehended the initial extraordinary skills on it. Relying on this skill of using extraordinary power, we built the Ninglan New City on the ruins. Of course, the construction of the Ninglan New City is also inseparable from the Ninglan Sheltering Stele."

“Just relying on this alone, you have mastered… extraordinary skills?” I was a little shocked by the curator’s explanation.

There are only a few of the most basic runes on it, and it took them thousands of years to develop their extraordinary skills to such a level relying only on this little revelation... No wonder they didn't climb the technology tree, did they choose the wrong development path?

Have you been fighting in the rune field until now?
