585: Transfer student from Class 5, Grade 9
Chapter 584: The Transfer Student in Grade Nine Class Five
Dick did not jump to conclusions, as voices can be imitated, and everything required more substantial evidence.
Afterward, facing questions from Isurna and several high-level Healers, Dick honestly recounted and described the symptoms in detail.
Of course, the Demon King System and soul transmigration had to be concealed.
Although it seemed Dick was fine, Isurna still requested him to undergo multiple follow-up examinations.
It was almost noon before Dick was finally able to leave the hospital.
If he weren't going to the Adventurers Guild for an exam later, Dick would likely have stayed in the hospital all day; the morning's accident had frightened Isurna badly.
One must know that previously, in order to control Isurna, Dick had shown her many memories from his past life, including separation and death.
Unlike the other women, in Isurna's eyes, Dick was not an invincible person who controlled everything; he could be overturned by various accidents.
"When did you sign up for the S-rank Elite assessment again? You're already busy enough, having to capture the Divine Machine Witch, attend Academy, and also train Alice and the others..."
Listening to Isurna's grumbling beside him, Dick offered a wry smile in response, and soon arrived at the roadside, ready to get in the car and leave.
Because he had been in the hospital all morning, Dick missed the Academy tour and the student registration procedure.
As for some complicated procedures, Isurna handled all of them afterward, as she had a special status and was an old acquaintance of the Warden.
"You are a Swordsman, so naturally you'll enter the Swordsman Department, and at 19 years old, you should be in the ninth grade now..."
Isurna introduced slowly, then asked, "The Swordsman Department has the most students, with 32 classes per grade. Which one do you want to join?"
"Any is fine, you arrange it."
Anyway, coming to the Academy was just for a mission, not actually attending school, so Dick didn't plan to sit in a classroom and listen to lectures later.
Those knowledgeable old professors weren't even qualified to be Dick's students, let alone teach him.
"How about joining Class Five? I was in Class Five when I went to school!"
Looking at Isurna's slightly flushed pretty face, Dick smiled lightly and nodded.
...
Meanwhile, in the classroom of the Swordsman Department's Grade Nine Class Five, an old professor with white hair was giving a lecture.
And in the back row of the classroom, several students in uniform were secretly transmitting messages.
"What are we eating for lunch later? A new Courtesan House has opened on the commercial street, and the top courtesan there is a good cook..."
"Ah Bin, are you going there for lunch? I don't even want to expose you."
"Lunch break is only two hours, Ah Bin, and you still want to go to the Courtesan House? You just stayed up all night yesterday..."
Hearing the complaints from his hangers-on, the young man named Ah Bin didn't care. He rested his hands behind his head and said disdainfully,
"We are young now, our bodies are great, so we should indulge. When we are seventy or eighty and can't even stand, you will know regret..."
Ah Bin's twisted logic was as 'logical' as ever, and several hangers-on were quickly convinced and planned to skip the afternoon class.
"Sigh, we have very few credits left. Starting tomorrow, we must attend every class..."
"Yeah, if we don't have enough credits, we'll be held back. If my father finds out, he'll definitely cancel my gold card..."
"Ah Bin, maybe we should just skip today, and go next time..."
Seeing his hangers-on show signs of fear, Ah Bin immediately slammed the table and transmitted a message, scolding, "If you don't visit today, you wait for tomorrow. If you don't visit tomorrow, you wait for the day after. How depraved are you?"
"There's an ancient saying on the East De Continent: Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow, how many tomorrows are there? If I live waiting for tomorrow, everything will be wasted!"
Hearing Ah Bin's words, the hangers-on looked ashamed and immediately decided to go to the Courtesan House to 'eat' after class.
Whoosh—
Just then, a piece of chalk accurately hit Ah Bin's forehead.
"Robinson, why are you banging the table! If you're not satisfied with this old man's class, come up and teach it yourself!"
Hearing this, Ah Bin, who had just been full of impassioned expression, immediately deflated.
After pretending to listen to the lecture for a few minutes, Ah Bin secretly transmitted a message again, saying, "Don't worry, maybe there will be a few days of vacation soon."
"Another compensatory leave?"
"Impossible, the next holiday is two months away..."
"Ah Bin, where did you hear this gossip?"
Listening to the questions from his hangers-on, Ah Bin acted mysterious, tapped the table, and said, "Just wait, maybe the classroom will explode tomorrow..."
Whoosh—
Before Ah Bin could finish transmitting his message, a piece of chalk hit his forehead again.
"Robinson, banging the table during class affects order. Go stand outside as punishment right now!"
...
On the other side, Dick was driving a Magical Vehicle by himself, heading towards the Adventurers Guild in the Inner City of Suweier Imperial Capital.
Although he would soon face the S-rank Elite theoretical exam, which was outrageously difficult.
But Dick wasn't nervous at all; his mind was even thinking about other things.
The strange incident that happened at Anling Lake in the morning was definitely an important clue, a mission hint for the child of prophecy!
What could affect the strongest demon king system was undoubtedly the power of the Lord level, and not just an ordinary Lord.
"Apricot Lilli..."
Subconsciously, Dick couldn't help but contact Lord Apricot Lilli again, because she was currently the only Lord who had also interfered with the System.
Neither Sovereign Alice nor Master Mina had discovered the System's existence, let alone interfered with it.
Only Lord Apricot Lilli had easily done it!
"Perhaps... I really should go find her to cooperate."
Now that he was covered by Master Mina, Dick had the confidence to face other Lords directly and didn't need to be as timid as before.
However, before that, Dick still had a valuable trump card he hadn't used: the System's new Q&A function.
Previously, when doing the mission The Last Confession, the System had said.
After the Demon King class level breaks through fifty, the System's Q&A function can be used once a week. As long as it knows the answer, it will answer any question.
When possessing System VIP, the cooldown time would also be shortened to three days!
And now, Dick was level 56, just right to use this new function.
Soon, after taking a light breath, Dick organized his words and formally questioned the System.
Due to the cooldown time, Dick could only prioritize asking the most important question, such as what the accident at Anling Lake was.
A few seconds later, the System's voice, like heavenly music, resounded in Dick's mind.
[At that time, the host was affected by a certain extremely strong Lord power and was briefly possessed, and this System was therefore forced offline from the Main Spacetime.]
Hearing this, Dick's pupils contracted. He never expected that he had been briefly possessed.
But the strange thing was, he had been unconscious for more than ten minutes, and it seemed he hadn't done anything...
