Chapter 220 A New Beginning

Several students sat on the embankment by the river, their feet dangling freely in the air.

"It is said that if you make a wish to a shooting star, it will come true," said a girl with long braids.

"That's just a legend. I stopped believing it when I was 7 years old." A boy sitting next to him thought that this legend was too childish. Who would believe it?

"You are such a boring person who has no sense of humor." The girl with long braids was a little unhappy with the boy's words.

"Yes, yes, then make a wish. Maybe it will come true. Haha."

"You bastard!" The girl with long braids stood up angrily. In the surprised eyes of the people around her, she walked behind the boy and kicked him down.

"Wow, you are committing murder~" The boy rolled down the embankment and slowly stopped himself and climbed up using his hands and feet.

"Who are you kidding? Aren't you very good at flying?" The girl with long braids replied disdainfully.

While everyone was paying attention to the quarreling pair, a few students secretly made a wish.

The wishes of teenagers are not complicated. Some hope to have excellent grades, some hope to be liked by the girl in their hearts, some want to become stronger, and some hope to grow up quickly, break free from the constraints of student status, and enter this vast world.

The chirping of insects could be heard in the grass, accompanied by the night breeze, and the young men were playing and chasing each other on the grass.

With a crackling sound, the bonfire built with dead branches rose up.

Orange and red flames burned beneath the night sky, their flickering light illuminating the young faces around them. First-year students, mostly between the ages of 16 and 18, are just beginning their beautiful journey through life, their future filled with endless possibilities.

The students cleaned the fish they caught and then slowly roasted them by the fire using sticks. After the fun, everyone gathered together, sitting around the fire and chatting with each other.

"Your home is in the far north. Is there anything delicious there?" The two students whispered to each other.

"Well, most of the food can be found in other places, but the more special one is a kind of mushroom." The boy with short hair answered.

"Mushrooms, are they poisonous?" another tall and thin student asked curiously.

"Ha, non-toxic mushrooms don't taste good, do they?" The boy with short hair laughed and then said.

"That kind of mushroom is indeed a bit poisonous, but it's also a rare delicacy. When you come to our place next time, I'll take you to try it and you'll know."

"What does it look like?"

"Red with white polka dots on it."

"That sounds scary." The tall and thin boy shook his head.

"Haha, that's true. It's scary to eat it the first time. In the past, shamans claimed this mushroom was a gift from the gods. Only people of high status could enjoy it. Ordinary people would be poisoned and die if they ate it."

"So what happened next? Did no one discover the secret?"

"Later, the shamans were defeated by the Knights of West Wind. Only under the Knights' questioning did they reveal the method of cooking this mushroom."

"Hey, there's such a story."

"Yes, it not only tastes great, but it can also make your wishes come true after you eat it."

"It's not that easy to make your wish come true. I want to become an emperor and rule the world." Another student didn't believe it.

"If you eat that kind of mushroom, you will dream about your ideals and desires."

"But that's just a dream."

"But the wonderful feeling in the dream is also real. Reality is already so difficult, is it not allowed to dream?"

"But dreams always have a day when you wake up."

"Okay, okay. Stop talking, the fish is ready. Want one?"

"Yes~"

Several young men were vying for the freshly grilled fish. The air was filled with fragrance, and under the starry sky, they were laughing and talking sweetly.

During the time in college, after the initial novelty, the freshmen gradually became familiar with the environment and everyone had their own things to focus on and activities.

Occasionally, Roland Hill would meet with everyone as Roland to help with their homework, then use the teleportation magic mirror in the private lounge to transfer to Roxiel's identity to continue studying for her Angel Sequence. With her help, several members of the club achieved, if not top grades, then at least the best in their class. This, in turn, led to significant improvements in the grades of some members of the "Fire Fist and Wine" club. Her lectures attracted increasing numbers, often filling the activity room. An urban legend began circulating among students about the "Secret Scroll of Emenas," claiming that anyone who read it would be able to dominate everyone and become the top student in Emenas.

Bumansha had been researching a lot in the school library. After Luo Lan's advice, she'd been preparing for her transition to the Extraordinary Career Agency while making pastries. Alena still frequently went out to participate in club activities, but she refused to discuss the details with her roommates.

Nia joined a small club among the orcs and occasionally came to the Black Water Lily for tutoring. Lettice continued to mingle with the young ladies of the nobility, delving into her "Gorgeous Alchemy," pondering how to make combat more elegant and beautiful.

Ye Ling often dozed off in the club room with a pillow in her arms. If Luo Lan was there, she would run over and rub the pillow on his lap. Lily began to learn from some of her younger sisters how to dress up and how to attract rich young men. Various romance novels were also placed under her bed.

Vimiya often spent time in the library, looking up materials, seemingly searching for something. Kafla often studied in the activity room, and her grades had improved significantly. Furthermore, some of the boys from Fire Fist and Wine, after hearing about her plight, came to her aid. Encouraged by these helpful individuals, she gradually learned how to confront those who slandered her.

Swearing is indeed a technical job. Most people often regret that they don’t have enough skills in the confrontation. They hold their breath in their hearts and can’t curse, which is sometimes more painful than not being able to beat others.

Now, she frequently engages in arguments with that group of people in her class, as well as a few of her annoying roommates. Although she was initially uncomfortable with the situation, her mental toughness improved over time, and she no longer took the harsh words seriously. Because of her fierce resistance, the rest of the class began to question the veracity of the rumors, no longer completely believing their claims. She even made some close friends because of it.

Life is a process of constant growth and change, perhaps. Many things that once seemed unthinkable become familiar to me after a few attempts. It turns out it wasn't that difficult after all. So, this is the truth. Occasionally, I'll have these fresh insights.

After crossing many mountains, there is another beautiful scenery and a new world.
