Tap— Tap—
Moonlight spilled across the fields, creating a serene atmosphere.
Only the slightly slow footsteps echoed softly in the air.
Hennie left the mansion wearing a loose robe.
She was holding a small white dog in her arms.
After passing through a deep forest, Henney climbed to the top of the hill behind the academy.
We're even closer to the moon now.
Bathed in the soft moonlight, her fluorescent yellow eyes seemed to reflect the moonlight, shining brightly.
Standing atop the mountain behind the academy, one can clearly see the entire magic academy located in the central district of the royal capital.
Hene gently lifted her hair to prevent it from being blown around by the cold wind and obstructing her vision.
She remembers it very clearly.
This is the back hill of the academy.
This was a time filled with painful memories for her.
It was also the place where she first made a deal with the devil.
That time, both the academy and the capital city suffered heavy losses.
Although, in the end, Devonreiser, that pig, took the blame, and the sin of colluding with the devil was also transferred to him.
But Henney always understood.
If we really have to pinpoint the culprit for that incident, it could only be her.
She couldn't resist the devil's temptation and became greedy, which almost led to the devil destroying the entire academy.
If it weren't for Professor Victor being there.
Even if she had a backup plan, in the end, the Demon of Greed would lose all the magic it had absorbed due to the backflow of magic.
However, the tragic facts that occurred cannot be ignored.
"call."
Hene took a deep breath.
She bent down and placed the small white dog at the foot of the mountain.
"Have a good last sleep, Pukki."
The moment she finished speaking, a thick magic circle instantly rose up behind Heni.
The magic circle was engraved with incredibly complex runes, so intricate that it was hard to believe that it was actually a third-tier spell.
Immediately afterwards, the magic circle floated into the sky and began to spin wildly.
Countless rays of light rose from the college's dormitory building, transforming into clusters of light.
It's as if some kind of energy is being drawn out.
And it gradually absorbed into the magic circle summoned by Heni.
Hene simply watched this scene unfold calmly, without showing any further emotion.
Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew from behind, making Henny's hair all messy and scattered.
She was slightly taken aback, realizing that her vision was being blocked by hair.
Before she could turn around, that familiar voice rang out behind her.
"tell me."
"What are you doing."
Even without turning around, Heni could recognize the person who made the voice.
That was the person she respected most.
Sure enough, when she turned around, she brushed her wind-blown hair back up.
In that line of sight, there was a familiar figure in a trench coat.
A jet-black raven was perched on his shoulder.
Like a phantom in the night.
Viktor's appearance came without a sound.
It appeared beside her with just a gust of wind.
But Henney didn't panic or get overly excited.
It was as if they had known all along that Viktor would appear.
However, she still offered an explanation.
"Professor, I have already consulted with Dean Rachel."
“He allowed me to do that.”
Today, Hennie is more than just an associate professor at the college.
He is also a third-tier member of the Mage Council.
Furthermore, because of her special status, Henney is able to make requests to the council.
As long as her demands are reasonable and in line with the ethical standards of Parliament.
Simply put, Hene's behavior was perfectly in line with the standards and would not harm anyone.
Victor looked at Hennie calmly.
Once upon a time, even talking to him would make Henny blush like a little rabbit.
Now, it has grown to this level.
Confident, and powerful.
This strength does not refer to her physical power.
Because Heni is still only a third-tier mage.
However, when facing Victor, Henney was able to remain calm and composed.
Even if the professor in front of her was her favorite person.
"But you should know that."
Victor's deep gaze was fixed on Hennie.
That's not what I was asking.
His voice was even colder than the biting wind around him.
The Royal Academy of Magic is Rachel's territory.
Even Rachel didn't step in to stop Henney, which naturally means that Henney's behavior was within Rachel's tacit approval.
But upon hearing Viktor's words, Hene smiled, as if her mood had improved somewhat.
"Professor, I am very happy that you care about me so much."
"only……"
Henne's eyebrows drooped slightly, and her voice became a little low:
“You know demons better than I do, so you should know why I did this.”
Viktor remained silent, his gaze as deep and cold as a calm lake.
Demons will not die, because humans can never escape those seven emotions.
Pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, and lust.
As long as there are intelligent beings in the world, and as long as they cannot avoid one of these desires.
The dead demons will be resurrected on that basis.
Similarly, different demons of desire will be attracted to creatures with the same traits.
As long as his desire is strong enough.
