Chapter 440 The Sleeping Black Queen

After returning to the academy this time, Loran Hill spent more time at the Temple Academy. Considering that she would be leaving next year, she planned to arrange some things before leaving.

First of all, there are positions within the academy, but there are only two, one is the alternate chief of the Temple Academy, and the other is the president of the "Black Water Lily" club of the Walled City Academy.

In fact, due to Osuna's failure and long sleep, she now holds the position of the head of the Walled City Academy concurrently. This is simply because the "Black Water Lily" is a more extensive and powerful club than the "True Red Rose".

So much so that the legend of the "Sleeping Queen" is still circulating among the people of Emenas.

According to some rumors, the current underground ruler of the Walled City Academy is an extremely mysterious student. She never shows up in front of other people and sleeps deep in the ancient castle. She only wakes up on the full moon night to summon her subordinates and make decisions.

Some students from colleges farther away from the Walled City College would curiously ask the students of the Walled City College, "Is your leader still the 'Black Queen'?"

Some students would say they didn't know, some would keep silent, and some would answer with subtle expressions. The current leader of the Walled City Academy really respected the color black, and could be called the 'Black Rose Queen'.

"So, which adult is kidding me?"

In the Black Water Lily activity room, Loran Hill sat behind a high table, propping up her head and gazing at the crowd below. Her long, slightly curly black hair fell across her black dress, and her crimson eyes, against the backdrop of her black hair, created a captivating charm.

Since reaching Sequence 5 in the Angel Sequence, she has now picked up the Demon Sequence again. With the gradual accumulation, she estimates that she will reach Sequence 5 by the end of the year. For some unknown reason, after becoming a Demon Sequence, her personality has become more proactive and aggressive compared to the Angel Sequence.

Perhaps this is how the use of power slowly guides and changes a person's character. The Demon Sequence specializes in offense, with few protective and defensive moves, and their strength and skills tend to be more extreme.

Standing in the activity room were the club leaders. They might have been club presidents, star students, or experts recruited by the Black Veil. Now that the Black Water Lily had taken control of the academy, these people naturally came under Roland Hill's wing.

Almost every one of these people has received the kindness and guidance of this president, and some of them have even been given a new lease of life, which helped them to break away from their previous state of confusion and fanaticism.

Compared to those loose societies, the cohesion within the 'Black Water Lily' is particularly strong because of the extraordinary potions bestowed by Loran Hill to enhance their strength and the guidance and teachings given by him. Most people regard him as an idol and object of worship, so he is also an object of worship.

This can be considered as an unexpected result.

In order to defeat the mindless followers of Osuna, magic was used to defeat magic. A more powerful and authoritarian group than the Black Veil emerged within the Walled City Academy, to the point where Edren's influence within the academy was now less than that of Loran Hill.

As Loran Hill's scrutinizing gaze swept over them one by one, these Sequence 6 genius students straightened their backs, lowered their heads, and looked at the ground without saying a word. For a moment, a brief silence appeared in the room.

"Okay, Luo Lan, it's not a big deal. Let's just leave those rumors and legends alone. Besides, it does sound pretty impressive, haha."

At this moment, the only person in the club who dared to dissuade Loran Hill appeared. She was the top master in the academy, Bumansha, known as the "Cutting and Separating Scissors".

After being ravaged by Osuna's mystic technique, the former masters had either graduated or suffered from the aftereffects of Aijaka's technique, their strength declining and requiring a long period of recovery. Bumansha was now recognized as the academy's "strongest," undefeated in any internal competition.

It's conceivable that with the graduation of the fifth-year students at the end of this year, Bumansha, still in her second year, will remain in first place for a long time. As for Loran Hill? That's outside the academy's standards and not included in the rankings.

As Bumansha tried to dissuade him, she placed a cup of brewed tea in front of Luo Lanxier. Luo Lanxier looked at the people below, then after a while, lowered his eyes, picked up the tea, and drank it slowly.

After this, everyone in the venue breathed a sigh of relief.

Many people were wondering why the president had become so much more powerful after the holiday. They weren't as nervous as they were now when facing their teachers, fearing that they would be called out by the president.

The rumors about the academy were indeed initially due to the ideas of some cadres. Since they had defeated the Black Veil, as the new ruling society of the academy, they naturally had to show their strong strength and majesty, and bragging about their own president became the first choice.

Putting aside other things, the president of our own club is several times better than Osuna in terms of appearance, strength, and personality. It is really hard to express my feelings by keeping it a secret.

Everyone wants to show off, and the envy of others is a source of happiness. This isn't a big deal, especially since students are still in adolescence. So, through various coincidences and fanning the flames, rumors and stories began to spread among the students.

Some people say that the leader of the Walled City Academy is now a witch who is even more witchy than Osuna, a witch who is darker and more powerful.

No one dared to pronounce her name. (In fact, it was Luo Lanxier who told her not to mention her name casually.)

She was extremely mysterious and rarely appeared in front of other students. (Because Loran Hill was often at the Temple Academy, he rarely stayed at the academy later.)

She favors the color black and sleeps in a deep, ancient castle, surrounded by black flowers. (Because the club uniform is black, she, as president, naturally has to wear a uniform, and the water lily pattern on her clothes is seen as a mysterious black flower.)

The best way to deal with rumors is to refute them in a timely manner and make public statements.

But what if the truth is stranger than the rumors?

Who would have thought that a mere second-year student would have recruited almost all the senior students in the academy? A small number of them were done intentionally, but more were done unintentionally during the battle with the Black Veil.

If the truth is made public, it will probably trigger even greater discussion and outcry.

As a result, Loran Hill had no choice but to warn his own cadres, asking them to behave themselves and stop making any more bizarre news. Many students from the outer academy were talking about the "Sleeping Queen," and even she, at the Temple Academy, had people tell her about it and ask if she knew anything about it.

How could she respond? She could only smile and change the subject. After returning to the Walled City Academy, of course, she would give these energetic club leaders a good lecture, and then ask them to discipline their subordinates and stop spreading such news.

But when the members of the 'Black Water Lily' kept silent about it, many students in the school became more interested in the legend, and it spread more and more widely, and finally even the freshmen and teachers knew about it.

"Teacher, do students like this really exist?" a freshman asked near the end of class one day.

"Maybe." The usually professional and rigorous teacher gave a subtle answer, causing surprised cheers in the classroom.
