"That's a good summary. It will be very helpful for beginners. Can I show it to others?"

He flicked the paper and asked aloud.

"Whatever you want. It's what you gave her, but I hope you can give her the notes exactly as they are, instead of doing something boring like copying them again."

Elena closed her eyes slightly and stared at Rogers with an ambiguous smile on her face.

“No need to test me, I just want to slip a copy of the notes and summary to Alice.

"You know my secret, so you should be able to easily guess why I did this. I need her to improve her strength faster. This is a necessary plan." Rogers rolled up the notebook and put it into the sleeve pocket of his magic robe, and continued with a puzzled tone:

"Do you want to take your anger towards Alice for the Shadow Demon?

"Alice is a good and smart child. She can easily understand the meaning of this. This kind of thing will never make her have any inappropriate thoughts."

Rogers understood Elena's intention without much thought. She just wanted to make Alice have some messy troubles.

Elina had shown herself to be quite mature before, but for some reason she suddenly showed such a childish side now.

However, Rogers was too lazy to find out what was hidden in it. As long as he could achieve his desired goal, the unimportant edges could be shaved off.

Besides, girls' minds on such matters are always like a maze, with winding paths and unpredictable foundations, and they are all layered. Thinking too much about it will only add to your troubles.

"It's good that you can do this." Alina looked too lazy to explain. She looked at Rogers' drowsy face and said sincerely, "You should train your physique more. You have been promoted to bronze, but you are still as bad as before.

"If the Saint invites you to a duel because she wants to forcibly redeem the Shadow Demon, you may not be able to have the time you needed like you did a few days ago."

Just as Rogers was about to reply that Alice would never do such a bandit-like act, the academy badge in his robe pocket suddenly vibrated slightly. When his hand touched it, the message from Idrul also entered his mind.

"We still have classes in the afternoon, so take Lufia back to the dormitory to wash up and rest. The professor will come and pick me up later to take care of some things."

After reading the message, he spoke directly to Elena.

……

Rogers stood outside the house and watched Elina carry Lufia away. Before long, a beam of emerald green light quickly descended before his eyes.

"Isn't it a good thing that Caspar has awakened? Why is your description so strange? I don't quite understand what you are trying to say..."

Seeing Idrul emerge from the dissipated light, Rogers expressed his doubts.

"It's hard to explain the situation clearly. I'll take you there and you'll know." Idrul replied with a complicated expression. He wanted to open his mouth to explain a few more words, but he didn't seem to know how to describe it. He simply grabbed Rogers's shoulders and used magic to bring him to the tree house.

The morning light accompanied by a light mist adds a peaceful and mysterious atmosphere to the quaint tree house.

The unique fragrance of grass and trees in the morning also boosted Rogers' spirits a little.

“After you enter the house, behave kindly and don’t irritate Caspar again.

"Then you'd better ignore his abnormality, don't mention anything wrong with his personality or actions, and don't make any rash comments.

"besides……"

Idrul stood outside the door. He pondered for a moment, then spoke a lot of precautions in a scattered manner, as if the person they were going to see next was not Caspar, but a sensitive patient with extremely fragile mental state.

The more Rogers listened, the more confused he became. He nodded and guessed that it must be the Shadow Demon's forced control that affected Caspar's mind.

After all, the shadow demon was a little too strong because of the saint, and it also had a complete girl's personality. It was normal for the creatures that were forcibly controlled by it to exhibit some abnormalities.

"He is abnormal, so abnormal that I am a little scared."

After Idrul felt that he had explained everything he could, he sighed deeply and pushed open the door.

Rogers followed him in curiously and saw Caspar sitting at the wooden table, drinking a bowl of porridge in small sips.

His movements gave Rogers an extremely awkward feeling, such as the slow way he scooped the porridge with a spoon, the way he blew out a light breath before drinking the porridge, and the way he was careful not to open his mouth too wide.

All of them gave Rogers a hallucination. The person on the other side of the hallucination was not a muscular boy, but a girl who paid attention to etiquette.

But there is also an extreme sense of incongruity in it.

This reminded him of the Harvester Association member named Montroy. Although he was a little bit perverted and unacceptable to him, his every move was extremely natural and smooth, which was exactly the opposite of Caspar at this moment.

"Ro...Rogus?! Professor, how did you bring him here?!"

The moment Caspar saw Rogers, he let out a sharp cry with a hint of resentment and trembling.

He bit his lips tightly, holding the soup spoon in one hand tremblingly, and clutching his trousers with the other hand. In addition to fear, his eyes were slowly covered with a layer of tears.

Seeing this, Rogers felt his scalp tingling, and a strong discomfort rushed from his spinal cord to his mind.

It's so contrived! It's really so contrived!

Every inch of the other person's body exudes an indescribable sense of artificiality!

He turned stiffly to look at Idrul, only to see that the old professor had a similar expression as him, also looking at him stiffly and helplessly.

As if trying to adjust himself, Idrul took the initiative to speak softly and kindly:

"You will have to go back to class sooner or later, and as long as you go to class, you will inevitably have to meet Rogers.

"I'm afraid you'll..."

Having said this, he immediately seemed to realize something, and hurriedly coughed, then changed the subject:

“I want you to meet Rogers properly first. He is actually a good kid and he promised me that he would never hurt you again.

"If you feel well, you can resume classes this afternoon. If not, you can go back to class tomorrow, but you have to go back to your dormitory first."

After he finished speaking, Idrul winked at Rogers, signaling him to continue with a few words.

"Ah... That's right! I swear to the moral law in my heart! I will never do anything to hurt you again!

"I have truly realized my mistake. I shouldn't have been so reckless in the duel and scared you.

"I beg you to forgive me, so that we can work together and make progress together in the future."

Rogers bowed his head and admitted his mistake sincerely, and his eyes properly moved away from the unspeakable person in front of him. He didn't want to hear any more "crying voices" that sounded like heavenly music.

According to the effect of [Liqi Special Code], he can now deprive Kaspar of everything at will and give him any order.

Originally, according to his expectation, he planned to use the other party's identity to explore some information that he could not access, or wait until the other party grew to a sufficient level and then treat him as a qualified thug.

However, the current situation seemed to disrupt all his plans for Caspar, and he even had the urge to treat him as firewood for some kind of ritual.

But as the thoughts flowed, a good idea slowly emerged.

Caspar's change made an old professor like Idrul, who had lived for who knows how many years, feel "scared", so if it were someone else, they would probably not be able to accept it.

After all, the other party's property is earned by fighting with all your might, so it must bring sustainable profits!

"I understand. Actually, I was also wrong back then..."

Caspar's gentle and plaintive voice came, responding in a soft tone.

Rogers only heard the first half of the sentence. As for what was said afterwards, his brain automatically blocked it. He only roughly knew that the other party was willing to forgive him and would try to go to class in the afternoon.

Feminine, polite, kind, and timid...

After a brief analysis, Rogers understood why the other party had turned into such a horrible appearance. This was definitely the mental alienation brought to the other party by the Shadow Demon.

"Professor, I want to talk to Caspar alone. You don't have to worry. I have just sworn that I will never do anything to hurt him again."

After the other party paused, Rogers took the initiative to propose to Idrul.

He really didn't want to continue hurting Caspar now, he just wanted Caspar to hurt others.

"Good boy!" Idrul immediately stroked his beard and agreed. He didn't really care about Caspar, he just wanted to quickly fulfill his duties as a notary and a professor at the college so as to send this unspeakable guy away.

As long as the other person can live healthily and attend classes normally, that is the result he wants most.

Idrul walked out of the tree house quickly and closed the door neatly, not wanting to hear Caspar's voice again.

"Rogers, why don't you look up?" Caspar's tone was soft, mixed with inexplicable sorrow and confusion.

"I am very ashamed, so I dare not look up. Please be silent for a moment and listen to what I am going to say next."

Rogers directly activated the [Liqi Special], forcing Caspar to stop uttering any words.

Unfortunately, the [Special Benefit of the Contract] can only force a transaction, not hypnosis, otherwise he would definitely have to correct the other party's personality.

"I hope you can make friends with all your heart, for example, the third prince is a good one.

“He is from the royal family, and you belong to the royal aristocracy. In addition, the third prince has always had a good reputation. I really want you to form a good friendship.

“You need to be more proactive in this process and discover more of the Third Prince’s strengths. It’s best to write down three characteristics or traits that you admire and like every day.

"Then, in order to check whether you have understood the Third Prince carefully, I hope you can write down a complete account of everything the Third Prince does every day and give it to me in the form of a letter.

“This is definitely what your family hopes for, so please stay close to the Third Prince and try not to miss anything he does.

“Even if it’s night, even if you need to be followed, even if you have to bear unnecessary controversy, don’t be afraid of any difficulties, just keep working hard!”

After Rogers gave his orders, he quickly turned around, opened the door and walked out of the cabin.

The talent that the third prince was most proud of was winning people's hearts. In order to gain the support of the nobles, he spent the first half of his life pretending to be a friendly person.

And if he were to treat the loyalty of royal aristocratic descendants like Caspar with indifference and avoidance, it would certainly be extremely inconsistent with his personality and beliefs.

Rogers, who was deeply hurt by the rumors, knew clearly that people would not care about what bad things Caspar had done, but would only care about the attitude of the third prince, a royal noble, towards the descendants of the royal aristocracy.

"What are you laughing at?" Idrul asked in confusion when he saw Rogers walking out of the house quickly.

"I just thought of some happy things." Rogers replied in a friendly tone.

Chapter 46: Sudden Afterthought

The sunshine at noon today is much brighter than usual, making the gradually cold weather appear to be warming up.

Rogers hung the magic book on his waist with a rope, and holding the "Detailed Explanation of Basic Magic Circles", he rushed to the classroom alone.

At this time, the magic book was still very quiet, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

He also forced the Shadow Demon into the magic book. According to Elina, this Shadow Demon would sleep soundly for a week without her help.

The class was held on the upper floor of the theory classroom. When many first-year students saw Rogers walking into the room, they naturally avoided him and even deliberately looked away.

Rogers touched his chin and thought about it, but couldn't find anything wrong with himself. He didn't know why these classmates had become more cautious about him than usual.

Without thinking further, he raised his eyes and looked at the extremely large classroom in front of him.

Unlike ordinary classrooms, there are no regular chairs and long tables here, but instead hundreds of workbenches of the same specifications.

On each three-meter-long table is a stack of one-meter-long stone slabs and various tools that seem to be used for drawing and carving.

“How can the instructor teach in such a large venue?”

Rogers couldn't help but start to guess how the tutor would teach in a while.

The content of the class in the game is basically just described through cutscenes, which describe what class was taken and what skills or attribute points were gained, without any specific presentation.

Before he could continue to ponder, a pair of slightly cold hands covered his eyes, followed by a playful question with a smile:

"Guess who covered your eyes~"

Rogers sighed, not knowing how to respond. If Lufia, this silly child, had covered her eyes, she would definitely have asked "Guess who I am" instead of this question.

"Is Alice watching from a distance?"

As soon as he finished asking the question helplessly, he heard a teasing response in his ears.

"Yes."

As soon as she finished speaking, Elina put down her hands and walked to Rogers with a subtle smile on her lips.

Her snow-white eyelashes, like a palm-leaf fan, fluttered slightly, and a look of triumph flashed in her eyes.

This was the first time Rogers saw Elena show this kind of expression since they started dating.

[Alice activates her intuition bonus and is sensing your magic item "Magic Book"...]

Seeing the prompt box that suddenly popped up and the information displayed in it, Rogers frowned slightly. He held the textbook in his left hand, touched the magic book with his right hand, and used the ability of [Enlightenment Special] to give it some of the functions of [Ignorance Special].

[The Ignorance Bonus is passively triggered, the Intuition Bonus is judged as failed and the activation is aborted. ]

"It seems that the situation is getting a little bad for both of us." Elina smoothed her hair across her forehead with her fingers, but there was no worry on her face and there was a cunning in her smile.

Rogers did not look back, nor did he respond to Elena's words.

His thoughts were brought back to the day when they first met, when Elena's attitude was very similar to the current one.

Before signing the contract using the [Liqi Special], the other party had been very cordial, even to the point of being willing to reveal to him the extent of his control over the special.

After spending a long time together, he was absolutely certain that Elena was not the kind of person who would be willing to get close to someone or even let down her guard and confide secrets when she first met them.

"What did you see before dusk that day?"
