"Don't try to separate them by force in the future. You can study more about curses. When you see Eunice looking up relevant information, take the initiative to talk to her. Maybe you can have more topics to talk about, and it will be convenient for you to join in their discussion." After sending Caspar and Edith away, Rogers suggested to Derek.
"How did you know?" Derek nodded blankly, then asked in confusion, but then he thought that maybe he was too stupid to see it, and his face became more depressed.
"You should discover the good qualities of other girls instead of wasting so much unnecessary energy on Eunice.
"For example, Anil from our school is pretty good. She seems to have never avoided you because of your appearance. And Luo Fulin is not bad either. She is cute, highly ranked, and has a good personality. I remember that she sat quite close to you last semester.
"Many times, your devotion to Eunice cannot move anyone but yourself. Instead of doing this, you might as well get in touch with more flowers elsewhere..."
After seeing Derek's reaction, Rogers sighed and went on and on about how there was no need to hang oneself on a tree.
As he was speaking, a slender, white hand rested on Rogers' shoulder, interrupting his discussion.
"When you say flowers, are you referring to female classmates, or more succubi?" Elina came to Roger's side, glanced at him sideways, and asked in a calm tone.
"This kind of thinking is not advisable and must be corrected. Classmate Derick must not be misled." Alice, who followed later, had a solemn brow. Her eyes revealed a solemn and serious look, and she issued a deep warning.
"When did you come? You haven't been following us, have you?" Rogers glanced at the three girls, frowning slightly. When he thought of the noise just now, he couldn't help but ask.
Alice did not respond, but instead kept stating how bad Rogers' suggestion was and how he must change his mindset.
[The Lord of the Feast hopes that you can take off your robes and show your charm and strength in front of the Saint, to show that you are worthy of the love of several opposite sexes. ]
"I'm just trying to persuade Derek. I have no interest in this myself." Rogers closed the prompt box skillfully, and when he saw that Alice was still chattering, he responded.
"Really?" Alice stopped looking at Derek and asked Rogers seriously.
"Really." Rogers shrugged.
[Alice activates the intuition bonus and tries to judge your words. 】
[Ignorance bonus is passively triggered, please choose whether to pass the judgment. 】
Why would you use the special privilege for something like this? There were so many important things before that I had never used the special privilege to test myself.
Rogers looked at Alice's extremely serious expression in silence, and silently chose to pass.
[The judgment of the intuitive bonus is passed. None of the above words are lies. 】
"I knew that Rogers wasn't such a bad guy." Alice nodded in approval, with an expression that showed she trusted him very much.
"Chief, I'll take my leave now." Derek looked at Rogers who was surrounded and said goodbye and left.
Rogers then remembered his original intention, and while strolling in the library he selected many books on perception and detection magical skills, as well as some books on enchantments to enhance bodily functions.
Elena, Lufia and Alice also followed Rogers to browse and select books. When they walked out of the library together, Alice, at Rogers's reminder, went to look for Eunice to keep an eye on her situation and movements.
[The Lord of the Feast finds your conservative behavior very boring, and He looks away with disdain.]
In the next three days, Lius never came to see Rogers again, and the heads of each college were gradually formally finalized by the re-election rules of their respective colleges.
Unlike other academies, Hilmi Academy directly made Alice the only chief, and Rogers took over as the deputy chief.
Before this, the vague credits shared by the two colleges had already been distributed to the students who had participated in the fight against the cultists in Breed Territory, and the school also gave some reward credits as encouragement.
During the merger of the two academies, many students from the Demon King's Academy protested, because the total credits of the Demon King's Academy were obviously much higher than those of the Holy Maiden's Academy. The dispute was not settled until Alice promised that these credits would continue to be handled in a divided manner.
But just when everyone thought that dawn had arrived and everyone would be able to reap rewards for their hard work without having to engage in crazy internal competition, a piece of news came out that shocked all the students at the Holy Maiden Academy.
"The rules of the two houses remain unchanged, and the Saint's House will follow the excellent credit allocation rules of the Demon King's House.
"And the Saint Maiden Academy and the Demon King Academy will also compete. In addition to the credits from the last semester, the total credits of the Hilmi Academy will be divided into two parts. At the end of each month, the academy that contributed more credits will directly divide one of them according to the ranking, and the remaining one will be kept as a reserve."
When the students of Hilmi Academy heard these words from Alice's mouth at a meeting on the large lawn of the dormitory area, their faces were filled with nothing but horror.
The saint was completely bewitched by the devil, and all the students quickly reached this consensus.
However, shortly afterwards, Augustus College announced a distribution rule similar to that of Demon King College, except that unlike private credits that had to be turned in in full, they would only charge one-tenth.
The chief third prince of Augustus Academy said frankly that this was in preparation for the upcoming spell duel competition, in order to allow the outstanding ones to improve their strength as quickly as possible and to help the academy gain more resources.
After seeing this scene, the heads of other colleges followed suit to prevent their own colleges from being completely left behind.
The chiefs called it the "New Order", while the students privately called it the "Poison of Logos".
At this point, the "little devil" in Rogers' original nickname was completely removed.
The saint who was bewitched and controlled by him also became a symbol of the devil's power.
After three days of preparation for the start of school, the first class of the spiral tower theory course began in the classroom.
Alana was still the instructor, and Rogers still sat in the second to last row by the window.
"Your classmates seem to be becoming more and more hostile toward you." Elina flipped through the new book, her fingertips gently passing through a few strands of drooping snow-white hair, letting them continue to circle between her fingers.
get out of class had just ended. Rogers looked away from the paper in front of him that was filled with space magic runes. He glanced at the dazzling sunlight outside the window and replied lazily:
"After the elective course was opened, they may have truly realized that magical skills are more important than magic power. Last semester, I only showed them basic magic power and did not show them more spells.
"Besides you and Rufia, the only students who know my other skills are Alice, Caspar, and Edith. They won't reveal it to others, so these students probably think they can use their skills to cheat and suppress me in the next magic duel."
Before, no ordinary student dared to keep their eyes on him for even a second. However, with the opening of various elective courses, many people felt that they could master a variety of spells besides the basics, and thus developed more confidence. Some even showed subtle hostility towards Rogers, thinking that they would not be noticed.
Those who could enter Saint Herta were considered geniuses among the geniuses of the Empire. Even in the Morost Academy, which was known as the "hometown of mediocrity", any one of its students could stand at the top of the magicians of the same age in the Empire.
They all have the capital to be confident and even arrogant. Faced with Rogers, who they have long disliked but have been unable to do anything about, this sudden change in mentality is understandable.
"Speaking of this, do you have the confidence to defeat Alice now?" Elina slowly raised her head and asked Rogers.
"It's hard to say. I don't know how much she has grown." Rogers pondered the development of the runaway plot and shook his head in response.
If he were allowed to let go and perform the sacrifice, he would definitely win, but it would be hard to say in a normal spell duel.
[Miracle of Royal Power] is not a skill that can be revealed to others. It is estimated that as soon as he activates it, the Pantheon will come and knock on the Gate of Saint Herte.
"Then do you think I will win?" Elina paused for a moment, then continued asking with a puzzled look.
"You?" Rogers was slightly stunned when he heard this. He felt that this question was really difficult to answer.
Compared with the [Intuition Bonus] in battle, the [Precognition Bonus] obviously has far greater advantages. Coupled with Elina's own diligence and cunning, it can indeed offset most of Alice's bug-like bonuses.
"Want to make a bet?" Elina looked at Rogers's hesitant expression and suggested.
"What do you want to bet? What are you going to bet with?" Rogers looked confused and asked back.
He has long lost count of the requests Elena has made him make. Any help he wants, the other party can never refuse. It can be said that the whole person is now his property.
To bet, there must at least be equal stakes, and he didn't think Elena could afford it.
“I bet I can beat Alice, and if I win, then you will be bitten at will without resistance.
"If I lose, I will tell you what I have seen." Elina placed her palms on the table, tapping lightly with her fingertips, and expressed her thoughts in a rhythmic rhythm.
"Okay." Rogers nodded in agreement happily.
What Elina said about having seen could only mean that she had foreseen what would happen between her and Rogers in the future before Rogers obtained the [Ignorance Special].
Rogers had never asked Elina this question since their first argument in the magic circle class. He would be happy to see her being frank.
Chapter 4: Overthrow the Tyranny of Rogers! (2k)
As the cold winter gradually fades away, the pale and withered scenery of Saint Hert gradually dissipates with the arrival of the spring breeze.
The color of the sky gradually changed, from gloomy gray to a brighter and more blue color.
The sun no longer hides behind the clouds; its warm rays shine on the earth, giving people comfort and warmth.
The frost on the branches beside the road melted quietly under the sunshine, revealing some moss-covered bark. The buds on the branches swelled, and the tender green leaves grew again, powerfully passing through the branches, revealing the pleasing new green.
It is truly a place full of vitality, and the scene of all things competing with each other is still before our eyes.
However, in this boundless spring scene, the mood of the first-year students of St. Herte was not affected at all. Instead, their mood became even more depressed.
Over the past month, with the spread of the "Logos Poison", the atmosphere of the entire first grade has been filled with tension and anxiety.
The students work hard day and night, constantly challenging their limits, immersed in the competition for credits, and dare not relax for a moment, for fear of falling behind others.
This caused many people to wonder how the Demon King Academy had managed to survive so long last semester.
The situation in Hilmi College was even worse, as many students were rewarded by Lord Brad for his campaign against cultists, so they naturally started earlier.
Unlike the one-tenth credit of other colleges, all the credits of Hilmi College must be handed in and redistributed.
This forced many students who had not set foot in Brad Territory during the holidays to work harder, and those who had originally received rewards were afraid of losing their advantage, and were inevitably driven by pressure to compete together.
Under high pressure, resentment inevitably began to spread.
Many students jointly submitted a proposal to the heads of their colleges to abolish the new allocation plan, but most of them rejected it on the grounds that if it was abolished, they would be completely left behind by other colleges.
After that, they went back to Hilmi Courtyard, but the usually gentle and polite saint was extremely determined about this.
Only then did everyone realize that they had to find the source of all this evil, Rogers Brad.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the window lattices into the classroom of the spiral tower.
Rogers did not listen to the various knowledge that Alana was describing on the podium. Instead, he gently stroked the pen of the feather pen with his fingers, moving it continuously on the manuscript paper in front of him, sketching out gear structures with helical teeth, gradually forming a complete planetary gear transmission system.
Ever since he took Professor Kuli's enchantment class, he has always had the idea of bringing this system into reality. After all, the power source already has a prototype, and the supporting machinery should also be improved.
He gently adjusted the monocle he was wearing, searching his mind for knowledge about various mechanical devices.
Unfortunately, he was not an engineering student in his previous life, and most of his theories came from various popular science videos he watched in his spare time.
For example, when it comes to clocks, he knows about the gear structures of the mainspring and crown wheel system, the swing wheel and escape wheel system, etc., but unfortunately, he only knows about it. He doesn't know when he can turn it into reality based on his own thinking.
In addition to the enchantment class, he also chose Alanna's ancient magic language class and Idrul's magic plant class.
The basic principle of Alana's course is to analyze the knowledge of spells using linguistic methods. After the students who chose her course managed to endure a few boring lectures, most of them quickly switched to other classes.
Rogers was actually quite pleasantly surprised by this, because he discovered that Alana had made great progress in this subject during the holidays, and the connection between certain concepts had significantly improved his mastery of spells.
As for the magic plant class, because of the need to prepare materials, it is still just theoretical knowledge and cannot be considered a real class.
"What on earth is in your head?" Elina leaned close to Rogers, looking at the dazzling structural drawings in front of her, and couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm telling you, don't get so close to me every time." Rogers shrugged slightly and pushed Elena's chin away.
"Are you planning to write a book? If you do, the Craftsmen's Guild will see this knowledge and will deify you without hesitation, right?" Upon hearing this, Elena came closer. She looked at the many drafts written by Rogers and asked curiously.
"I have this idea." Rogers only felt the warm and soft skin touching his cheek, and could clearly feel the breath exhaled by the other person.
However, the fine hair scratched his earlobe, making him feel extremely itchy. He could not help but turn his head to distance himself, raised the feather pen, and used the feather on the top to tickle his ear to relieve the itch.
Just at this moment, a ball of paper came from the front row and rushed towards Elena's forehead at a high speed.
She quickly picked up the paper ball with her fingers and stared at Alice with narrowed eyes as she turned her head back.
Alana on the podium naturally saw this scene clearly, but she only paused her lecture slightly and did not make any substantive warnings or deduct credits.
"Here, this is the message from the Saint." Elena spread out the paper, glanced at the words on it, and handed it to Rogers.
"Is it starting now? I thought it would start earlier. The third prince is a lot smarter this time than before. It seems that everyone is growing." Rogers put the pen aside, looked at the message conveyed by Alice, and praised.
The content on the paper was that many students had gathered together, including many of Hilmi's classmates, and they all wanted to go to Rogers together to ask him to persuade Alice to abandon the current credit allocation policy and let everything return to the original state.
Ever since the third prince led the Augustus Academy to follow the distribution rules, Rogers had anticipated that this day would come.
This was a naked conspiracy, a conspiracy to make him the public enemy of the grade.
If Hilmi Academy will not object under the pressure from him and the Saint, then he can bring all the students of the grade.
People are always like this. The more they gather together, the braver they become. Things that they originally did not dare to do alone can only be done without fear when they are in a large group.
"If the story of him and Caspar hadn't become more and more popular, and it hadn't been necessary to divert everyone's attention as soon as possible, it would have been a little later.
"After all, your classmates think that the three elective courses you took can't improve your combat power. In addition, you usually hide in the corner and don't pay attention in class. The longer the time goes, the more confident they will be.
"So, what are you going to do?"
Elina tucked her hair behind her ear with her fingers. As she spoke, she turned her head and poked Rufia, who was sleeping on the table.
Because of the "abuse" suffered by Elina during the holidays, the little princess had already learned most of the public course knowledge for the next semester, and she was often dragged away for "cramming" at night, causing her to take naps whenever she found an opportunity during the day.
"At least he knows that he will be disgusted if he buzzes around like a fly, so he won't use any dirty tricks on us anymore.
"Isn't the Spell Duel Competition coming up soon? As long as I bring everyone a fun competition, I believe everyone will be convinced by me and fully realize the importance of hard work."
Rogers shrugged indifferently, put the crumpled paper Alice handed him aside, and continued to write down various ideas and diagrams of gear structures.
It was impossible to just let go of the endless supply of credits. In his opinion, there was nothing much to think about. Instead, it was more important to figure out how to quickly get promoted after becoming a researcher.
The sky gradually darkened in the evening, and the sunlight, which was about to disappear completely, filtered through the gaps in the velvety clouds, dotted the sky with amber spots.
After Alana announced the end of the class before leaving, Rogers stood up from his seat, holding his books and a stack of manuscript paper in one hand, and prepared to leave the classroom with Elena and Lufia.
Just as the three of them walked down the stairs and came to the empty space in the front row of the classroom, a group of students in colorful school uniforms surrounded them.
