"Then I'll have to treasure it carefully, since alchemical poisons are very valuable."

Feeling that he had come up with a brilliant response, Eris smiled brightly at Field.

But when he saw that the other person seemed to be really angry, Eris quickly shrank his shoulders involuntarily.

Seeing this, Gu Xinghe couldn't help but find it somewhat amusing.

Just like the image that had appeared before him before, Eris gave Gu Xinghe the impression of such a boy.

Moreover, unlike his performance in front of Gu Xinghe, Field was clearly more aggressive in front of Eris.

The conversation between the two was a back-and-forth exchange, with neither able to gain the upper hand.

Furthermore, it presented Gu Xinghe with a harmonious scene of friendly interaction between partners.

Gu Xinghe was also very happy that his suggestions were implemented well by both of them.

"Alright, Eris, so what exactly is the information and intelligence assistance you've come all this way to provide me?"

When Gu Xinghe brought up serious matters, Eris's expression became much more serious, and he stopped "opposing" Field.

"It's information related to the Thorn Cult—"

The doctrinal reforms spearheaded by Theresa May are now intensifying.

However, the Pope's attitude in this matter seems somewhat strange—

The Pope, who had initially maintained a neutral stance on the matter, has recently been avoiding the issue, seemingly tacitly acquiescing to Theresa May's reforms.

When Eris said this, there was hesitation and uncertainty in his voice.

But at this moment, Gu Xinghe discerned Eris's true thoughts—

"Is it because you're worried that Theresa's progress is going too smoothly, and because of the Pope's strange attitude?"

It's alright, I'll remind Theresa. If any unknown dangers arise, we'll all discuss countermeasures together.

And, Eris, you have done very well.

This was a rare moment of genuine comfort from Gu Xinghe, rather than his previous kind attempts to "mediate" the fight.

Eris quickly demonstrated the drive to "climb up if given a pole".

"So, boss, since I've already done such a good job, could you consider giving me a raise?"

As he said this, Eris's previous worried expression vanished instantly, and he appeared quite optimistic.

"Stop being cheeky, Eris. Do you have any information about this school?"

Once again, he failed to "trick" Gu Xinghe into giving him a raise.

Eris ultimately had no choice but to accept Gu Xinghe's "freebie" once again, and "voluntarily" revealed the information she knew.

The information Eris provided was largely the same as what Field had previously told Gu Xinghe.

After all, Field was currently in the school and could be considered a true firsthand witness to the series of events.

For example, seeing the body of a deceased mathematics professor with one's own eyes, etc.

The information he obtained was firsthand intelligence.

His notoriety within the school meant that Field had access to information comparable to that of Eris.

However, Eris clearly knew more about the decisions made by the higher-ups than Field, who was a student.

"Also... hiring you, boss, as a math professor was actually a decision made by the board of directors."

It is said that the school board member who made this proposal was codenamed "Chastity".

Otherwise, without a relevant person to introduce you, even if your academic qualifications and degree certificates are quite excellent, boss, you will not be able to do so.

However, without relevant teaching experience, it is still quite difficult to get a teaching position at St. George's University..."

At this moment, Gu Xinghe noticed a name that was not unfamiliar to him in Eris's words.

But just as he was pondering the reason why the school board member who appeared in the side quest did this...

Field then interrupted Eris's somewhat paused words.

"The mentor's teaching is definitely far superior to those incompetent and immoral people from before."

However, Eris, who was interrupted, was not angry.

After all, he had already said everything he wanted to say.

The pause just now was only because I was thinking about how to "comfort" Gu Xinghe, who wouldn't normally be able to become a professor.

Moreover, Eris is now somewhat curious about what Field said.

Although he knew that Field was "Gu Xinghe's number one flatterer," it was not surprising that he had just made such a boastful remark.

However, based on the intelligence he obtained from the school, Eris knew that Field's description was not an exaggeration.

The students who have been taught by Gu Xinghe are indeed showing a tendency to become "Gu Xinghe fans".

The thought that I might have to "fight" thirty people all by myself in the future made me realize that I might have to do it all by myself in the future.

Eris felt that for him, having only Field in front of him was enough.

"Speaking of which, boss, how exactly do you teach? I've never heard of you giving lessons to others..."

"What are you thinking?! I'm a proper teacher."

As Eris listened to the various hypnosis teaching methods that were now appearing in his mind, Gu Xinghe quickly interrupted him.

Although his first class was somewhat similar to what Eris had imagined, he took his classes seriously from then on.

"Alright."

Hearing Gu Xinghe's answer, Eris, who had not learned the real answer, looked somewhat disappointed.

But this feeling obviously wouldn't last long for Eris, so he quickly turned around and said to Field with a smile.

“Field, although I have already pointed out your ‘mistake,’ you don’t seem to have corrected it.”

So I have to say it again—

My name is Luo Zhiye now, so please don't call me by the wrong name again.

Having said this, Eris, who had finally gained a slight verbal advantage over Field, quickly disappeared.

Yes, after telling Gu Xinghe all the relevant information he knew.

After having a good time reminding Field of the "mistakes" he had made before, he was satisfied with that.

Without waiting for Field to respond, their main strategy was to run away if they couldn't win.

Since he didn't hear any rebuttal from Field, this was his absolute victory!

The consciousness of Eris attached to Luo Zhiye quickly chose to leave.

Just as he said before he left, the person who reappeared before Gu Xinghe and Field was indeed Luo Zhiye himself.

So, when Luo Zhiye, somewhat bewildered by Eris's sudden departure, opened his eyes again—

He looked at Field, who was staring at him with a dissatisfied expression, and at Gu Xinghe, who was looking at him with a half-smile.

He couldn't help but curse his unlucky boss, who always left him to clean up messes, once again in his heart.
