Chapter 8: Luo Qixi is practicing
"May the great protection of water descend upon the place you seek, and may cool, shallow streams appear there!"
As Lokishi spoke, a water ball was ejected from her short staff, then spun and landed on the ground.
"call……"
As the water sphere landed, Luo Qixi let out a long breath and then collapsed to the ground, her legs giving way.
This should be the last shot of the day, right?
Looking at the last line of the parchment her teacher had filled with writing, Luo Qixi nodded gently… She had to admit, her teacher was truly amazing… If she practiced according to her teacher's plan…
It was exactly the same...
The teacher actually figured out my magic reserves just from my description... In the past few days of practice, Loki was surprised to find that as long as she followed the teacher's plan, her magic would be completely depleted when the last water ball spell landed.
How did they do that...?
Loki could only attribute this to the brilliance of Principal Sylvania...
As practice ended, Luo Qixi nodded slightly, then walked back to her dormitory with slightly tired steps.
These past few days she's been getting up very early to start training... because there aren't many people in the courtyard in the mornings, so her practice won't be noticed...
Luo Qixi wasn't afraid of others finding out about her training... but rather afraid of being pointed at and gossiped about... after all, most of the students here weren't exactly friendly towards demons...
Especially her own hair… Lokishi gently twirled the ends of her hair; this long blue hair would turn green in the sunlight… a very unsettling green… and Spey… um.
Loki didn't even dare to think about the name of this race, because they were just too terrifying...
After rubbing her slightly sore forehead, she tiptoed back to her dormitory. But as soon as she opened the door, she saw Lanleta sitting quietly in a chair, watching her.
"Ugh...sorry...did I wake you up?" Luo Qixi said subconsciously.
"Loki..." Lanleta didn't respond to her, but instead called her name and said, "Sit down first."
"Um?"
Luo Qixi sat down slowly, a little embarrassed. She didn't quite understand what Lanleta meant... Could it really be because she woke her up? But I was being so careful...
"What were you doing just now?" Lanleta asked, enunciating each word clearly.
"I...I went to training," Luo Qixi said slowly, sounding a little guilty. "The teacher told me to...go to training."
"The training the teacher gave you..." Lanleta muttered, shaking his head. "And why have you been coming home so late these past few nights?"
"It's also because of... Teacher's matter." Luo Qixi was also a little guilty. After all, although her teacher didn't care much about the fact that her teacher was a vampire, Luo Qixi felt that it was better not to tell anyone.
Lanleta shook her head slightly upon hearing her answer, then said, "Is that really so?"
"Of course it's true..."
"You're lying to me!" Lanleta slammed her hand on the table. "What exactly have you and the principal been doing?!"
"You think I didn't see it...? Every night he comes home looking exhausted... and he's carrying an Asura silver coin!"
"Ah...that's..." Loki panicked, unsure how to explain, while Lanleta stared wide-eyed and said, "You wouldn't be doing something shady with the principal, would you?!"
"Not clean...not clean?" Upon hearing this, Luo Qixi's eyes widened suddenly, and her face visibly turned red.
"No way! That's absolutely... absolutely not true!"
"I don't believe it... You sneak out every morning and come back so late at night... Every time you come back, you have money in your hands and look exhausted!" Lanleta said with exasperation, "Are you really that short of money?"
"You...you shouldn't talk nonsense!" Luo Qixi was so ashamed and angry that she didn't know what to say, because what she and the teacher did was indeed hard to talk about!
"The teacher was just teaching me... teaching me magic." After thinking for a long time, this was the only explanation she could come up with.
"Magic?" Lanleta looked completely skeptical, pursing her lips as she said, "If you really need money... you can tell me."
"As your roommate... and you keep the dorm so clean every day... I wouldn't mind lending you some money... the kind you don't have to pay back in a hurry."
"Don't do this kind of thing again..."
"Bang!"
Loki slammed her hand on the table, interrupting Lanleta. She bit her lip and said, "I already said... it's not that kind of thing!"
"What kind of person do you think I am... what kind of teacher do you think I am?!"
"But the principal might really do such a thing..." Before Lanleta could finish speaking, she saw Lokishi's angry eyes glaring at her.
"I...I was just worried about you..." That was all she could say in the end. "The way you're acting so mysteriously...anyone would be suspicious, right?"
"But we really didn't do any of those... strange things you mentioned..." Of course, Loki knew what kind of person her friend Lanleta was, and she was genuinely worried about her.
But after hearing her say that about the teacher, she still couldn't help but want to defend the teacher... Even I have to copy it a hundred times when I slightly distrust the teacher!
"Please believe me," Luo Qixi said, pursing her lips. "And believe in the teacher... she really isn't like those... those little stories say."
"The teacher is very kind... not only does he answer all my questions, but he also teaches me magic."
"..." Seeing her like this, Lanleta was silent for a few seconds, then said helplessly, "Since you've said that... I don't seem to have anything else to say."
"Of course I believe you," she said slowly. "So... I'm sorry for what I just said."
Seeing her apologize, Luo Qixi pursed her lips and said, "I shouldn't have been so angry just now... I only acted that way because I heard you say 'teacher'..."
"It seems you really like the principal..." Lanleta said subconsciously.
"Because the teacher is such a kind person..." Luo Qixi said, a smile appearing on her face. "The teacher doesn't look down on me because I'm a demon... and is even willing to give me money... and teach me magic... and..."
"Anyway, the teacher is actually a very good person." Luo Qixi almost mentioned that the teacher would give her snacks after drinking blood every time.
In short, although they had only spent a few days together... Loki already trusted Cinderella a lot.
"I see..." Lanleta nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this. "Would your teacher mind taking on another student?"
"Look at me... I feel like it's going to be hard for me not to get expelled now."
"Hmm..." Lánretta's question caught Loki off guard. Of course, she couldn't just agree to anything on Cinderella's behalf, but Lánretta was her friend...
"Just ask for me," Lanleta said, seemingly noticing Loki's predicament. "Just ask!"
"I could bring the principal a little something snack or something!"
"And you wouldn't want to see your roommate get expelled, would you?"
"I...I understand." Unable to resist Lanleta's constant tugging at her hand, Loki could only say, "I'll ask...I'll ask the teacher."
