Chapter 63 Laurel
"Lu Yi! You are the champion——!"
Lu Yi and Callisto stood in front of the principal.
The principal stepped aside and gave the amplifying stone in front of him to Callisto.
"Dear Your Majesty, do you have anything to say to Lu Yi and our students at Bryside?"
Callisto's eyes swept across the excited expressions of the Braceside students in the audience, then moved to Lu Yi beside him.
Callisto looked up at the crowd in front of him and said gently and seriously: "I can't share anything with you, because everyone's path is different."
“This road is long. You may feel very tired, tired, or even painful. But I believe you can walk this road well, your own road well.”
Callisto tilted his head slightly, looked at Lu Yi tenderly, and said softly: "I am with you, and the God of Light is with you."
He drew the cross on the papal collar stroke by stroke, and his speech was simple but convincing.
Everyone in the audience followed his movements and made the sign of the cross on their chests, and Lu Yi was no exception.
After everyone had made the sign of the cross, Callisto slowly turned around and looked at the tray beside him.
On the tray were the gold cup and laurel wreath that symbolized the championship.
The noise from the audience gradually died down, and countless eyes were focused on the two of them.
Callisto reached out and lifted the golden cup, then handed it to Lu Yi.
"Lu Yi, are you excited now?" asked Callisto.
Lu Yi nodded and said softly, "A little bit."
Hundreds of people in the audience cheered loudly for him. Everyone was celebrating his victory, and on the stage was the strongest person in the human race who was presenting him with the award.
In this situation, how could Lu Yi remain completely indifferent?
Many trivial fragments flashed through his mind, and finally turned into dizziness and dissipated in his mind.
The adrenaline increased and my heart rate began to speed up.
Lu Yi could no longer tell whether it was the endorphins in his body that made him excited, or whether it was the excitement that caused the continuous secretion of endorphins in his body.
But the only thing that is certain is that he is excited at the moment.
"Yes, I'm a little excited." Lu Yi repeated.
Callisto smiled and placed the golden cup steadily in his hand.
"This is your first gold cup. I hope you can remember the excitement at this moment. I believe Lu Yi will win countless honors in the future, but none of them will be as special as this one."
Lu Yi nodded, "I will."
Callisto turned again and held up the pure gold laurel wreath on the tray.
"Lu Yi." He whispered Lu Yi's name.
"Your Majesty, I am here."
Lu Yi bent down slightly and lowered his head.
His hair was swaying smoothly, and his white and slender neck was completely exposed to Callisto because of his bending movement.
Callisto's fingertips moved slightly, silently stroking the cold laurel crown beneath his fingertips.
The magical power that no one could detect was quietly surging, and the heat passed through Callisto's fingertips into the cold crown.
In just a moment, the cold crown was given just the right amount of warmth, without making the wearer feel the slightest bit of chilliness.
Callisto gently placed the crown on Lu Yi's head.
The pure gold crown blended into Lu Yi's golden hair. For a moment, it was hard to tell whether the light of the golden crown was more pure and flawless, or Lu Yi's golden hair was more pure and flawless.
Lu Yi felt the warmth above his head, and looked up at Callisto as if he had noticed something.
The azure and violet collided and finally fell into the deep blue seabed together.
Lu Yi's eyelashes trembled slightly and he looked away.
Callisto's Adam's apple moved slightly, and he said, "Autumn is coming soon. Perhaps you would like to go to Kadifan to see the osmanthus forest of the Holy See when you are free?"
“When the flowers bloom, they are really beautiful.”
His words blocked the sound transmission stone beside him, and he lowered his voice intentionally to ensure that only Callisto and Lu Yi could hear it.
Lu Yi smiled and said, "If Your Majesty doesn't mind my disturbance."
"Not a nuisance."
It was obviously just a polite remark, but Callisto explained it seriously.
"If you wish to come, please come directly at any time. As I said at the beginning, the Holy See will become your home."
"OK."
The two smiled at each other and turned to face the crowd.
Although the people in the audience were curious about what the Pope said to Lu Yi after blocking the loudspeaker stone, they immediately cheered when they saw the two men's eyes turned to them.
If the target was Lu Yi, even if the high and mighty Pope had a special preference for him, it would seem to be a natural and logical thing.
After all, that's the person even the God of Light favors!
For a moment as the crowd cheered, it was not the favoritism that they envied Louis Klein.
Rather, he was jealous that Callisto could be the one who gave him preference.
…
What surprised Lu Yi was that the chairman of the Magic Association did not show up until the end of the award ceremony.
The owners of the other several terrifying auras he had sensed before also did not appear.
Are they really just bored and want to join in the fun?
Lu Yi felt slightly confused.
But soon his confusion disappeared.
After the award ceremony, he originally wanted to leave directly with Canaan and his group.
Du Yi stopped him and pointed to the backstage and said, "Lu Yi, you can't leave now. Room 1102, the principal has something to tell you."
Lu Yi nodded, said goodbye to a few people, and walked towards Room 1102 alone.
Fortunately, before saying goodbye, Dui carefully told Lu Yi how to get there, so that Lu Yi did not get lost and found Room 1102 smoothly.
Lu Yi knocked on the door of Room 1102 and said, "Excuse me, Principal, are you looking for me?"
"Lu Yi! The door is not locked, just come in!"
The principal's voice came from inside, and Lu Yi felt several extremely strong auras at the same time.
This room was probably where the terrifying aura he sensed at the beginning was.
Well, that is the tea party room for the bosses.
Lu Yi took a deep breath, straightened his back and pushed open the door.
He had already prepared himself mentally, but he still took a deep breath when he saw the person in the room.
No other reason, because he saw the most unexpected person.
——Paso.
Lu Yi's expression was calm, but the alarm in his heart was already going off.
[“Oh my gosh! 857, look who this is??”]
[“This is Paso, right? How come his strength has suddenly increased to this level after not seeing him for a while? This is called cheating… He has jumped three major stages at least! What level is he now?”]
[Don't panic! 61, let me check him out! ]
857 opened the task log in the system background and carefully read the part about Paso.
It looked and made clicking sounds, occasionally letting out an exaggerated gasp.
Lu Yi was intrigued by its reaction and asked hurriedly: [“What’s going on? Stop keeping us in suspense!”]
[Okay, okay, I said, I know you are anxious but don't worry!] 857 closed the task log, [In short, he passed the training of the Beast King, obtained the inheritance of the previous Beast Kings, and his level soared directly to the eighth level!]
[“…This is what cheating is all about!”] Lu Yi glanced at the poor trainee magician in his backstage, and he only regretted that 857 could not become a dragon.
[“Xiao Ba, when can you stand up and let me help you become the leader?!”]
[…I advise you to think carefully about how to explain Tran to others.] 857 said coldly, [When I was looking through the character log just now, I saw that Callisto told him that Tran was Rant, and people also know that Rant and you are good friends, hahaha!]
[If Callisto hadn't stopped him from finishing the award ceremony, I think he would have flashed to San Dover to ask you for an explanation! ]
Lu Yi took a breath again, [“No, how could such a big persona of mine be stripped so easily? How is he still connected to the Pope? Does this have anything to do with Callisto? I just want to ask?!”]
857 shrugged his non-existent shoulders and gloated: [I am also a hen, I wish you good luck~]
The conversation with 857 lasted only a moment. Lu Yi turned around, closed the door, adjusted his expression, and walked towards the principal with a smile.
"Principal, you're looking for me? What's the matter?"
The principal waved at him and said with a smile, "Nothing, it's just a rare visit from some of the seniors, so I asked you to come and recognize them!"
"You recognize His Holiness the Pope, but do you recognize these Lu Yis next to him?"
Lu Yi turned around and looked at the four people beside him.
