Chapter 156 Onpharos 1-10 "Finally, you'll be with me tonight..."
After Xia finished setting the exam questions, she called Feng Jin and asked her to proctor Bai E's exam.
"This is my teaching assistant, Feng Jin, who is also a Golden Descendant, a descendant of the Sky Child."
At that moment, Xia introduced, "Are you at ease leaving it to her?"
Although it was a question, Xia's words at that moment were beyond question.
Although he is usually sharp-tongued, he treats his teaching assistants and students quite well and knows their importance.
If this priest dared to say he didn't believe it, he would definitely—
“Wind Violet? Is that the one I know?” The priest’s eyes lit up. “Yacintes?”
Feng Jin smiled and said, "Yes, High Priest, the cake that night was delicious."
He Yuan nodded to Na Ke Xia, "She is indeed someone worthy of our trust, so let's entrust her to her."
So easy to talk to?
Xia glanced at him suspiciously, but found that the priest's lifeless eyes held no doubt whatsoever; on the contrary...
It's all about trust.
This trust extends not only to Feng Jin, but also to Na Ke Xia.
That's not right.
Xia thought to herself that she had only known He Yuan for a short time, so how could she trust him?
"Teacher, when do we start class?" He Yuan asked.
He took a gold ring off his arm and placed it on the table. "I've heard that you have to give gifts when you become an apprentice. Is this enough?"
Feng Jin, who hadn't even left the house yet: "?"
She looked over groggily, "Priest, studying at the Divine Enlightenment Tree Court only requires showing your citizen ID and paying a book fee. The Fire of Serhis will ensure the smooth operation of this place."
"Is that so? I'm sorry."
He Yuan lowered her head as if embarrassed, and groped to retrieve the gold ring from the table.
This gold ring was something he could easily take out and use as currency; if it were damaged, he would inevitably be criticized.
However, his attendants trusted him completely because of his "performance" and understood whatever he did, so this matter didn't matter much.
But the priest showed a nervous and flustered mood, as if the golden ring was extremely important to him, and he even anxiously touched Teacher Xia's hand.
At that moment, Ms. Xia disliked others.
At that moment, Teacher Xia gently grasped the other person's hand and put the gold ring back on.
“In my class, you don’t need to think too much, just remember what I tell you.”
After class, just don't be as naive and innocent as you are now.
At that moment, Xia still had doubts that needed to be verified, but in his mind, He Yuan's personality was already pretty much a certainty.
Otherwise, why would I have suffered like this last night?
Could it be that he's interested in Bai E? Interested in that liar scoundrel?
Putting aside the length of time Bai'e and he had known each other—of course, Bai'e's actions were also outrageous—the fact that the two of them sat at the same table, and that lecherous man could use such excuses to offend the priest so many times, was enough to prove that the Senate's education was indeed terrible.
Well, although he didn't like Aglaia, if this was how the Senate taught... then Kexia still thought it was better to support Re-creation.
Such teaching... is completely treating the young people in front of them as political tools.
However, Cephalos seems to have some sense; at least—at least for so many years, the Golden Clan has still been in control of the Senate.
Xia had seen all those divine pronouncements; they were either neutral or secretly supported the Golden Clan.
If he were Aglaia, he wouldn't be worried about Bai E either—especially after hearing that the priest had gone to the Marble Palace before coming to the Divine Tree Court.
At that moment, Xia felt that Aglaia only realized there was no problem after meeting her in person.
So in the end, all their worries were for nothing?
No, that's not right!
We still need to be worried!
Aglaia thought the matter of the priest's arrival would be resolved quickly—this was based on the premise that Bai'e hadn't done anything wrong, but Bai'e had!
Not only did they do it, but they didn't stop, seemingly keeping someone up all night!
If even a little bit of this were to leak out, and those fanatical believers knew that the priests of Cephale had been defiled in this way... who knows what might happen to Bai'er!
As a teacher, Na Kexia cared for her students.
As a scholar, Naksha was unwilling to support the Senate.
But at this moment, he had to make a choice.
Should we help the students cover it up? Or should we reveal the truth of the matter to He Yuan and let him make his own choice?
“Yes, Professor Anaxagoras, I will remember it.” He Yuan’s words slightly interrupted Na Ke Xia’s thoughts.
The man frowned as he watched the young man take out the papyrus and books he had bought on the spur of the moment.
Bai'e was his student, and so was the priest before him.
He'll take responsibility for his own actions; he's not going to clean up his own mess as a teacher!
Let Aglaia worry about it herself!
At that moment, Xia relaxed and asked gently, "Do you need anything to help you read?"
Serhis would not refuse anyone who sought knowledge; there were books in the tree garden specifically for the blind.
Before she fully gets to know a student, at least in class, Na Kexia won't be too fierce.
At most, they might say something unpleasant.
However, when a student does something wrong... he, as the teacher, isn't so self-righteous.
He Yuan shook her head, her slender fingers moving across the book, clearly reading the words on the pages.
"...Thank you, teacher. Although I cannot see, Lord Kefal will guide me to recognize these characters."
Actually, once the books are collected, they become reading materials in the encyclopedia. Reading these is just like reading a novel; you just need to put a screen in front of you.
Oh? It seems this priest is quite close to Kephale.
I wonder if he could take me to study the Kefaller?
At that moment, Xia gathered her scattered thoughts and said to He Yuan, "What I want to teach you is not knowledge from books, but so-called 'common sense'."
"How did you feel about last night's ceremony? How did you feel when you did other ceremonies? How did you feel about other ceremonies?"
He Yuan said vaguely, "Last night... I felt okay at first, but then I started to feel unwell."
"My stomach feels like it's going to burst, and I feel uncomfortable all over. Even getting out of bed is difficult..."
"Stop—I'm not interested in these details!" Xia interrupted. "Although what you said doesn't really get to the point, my feelings are quite clear."
"You feel uncomfortable."
"Then let me ask you, as a chosen one of the gods, as a priest of Cephale, were your previous rituals this painful?"
He Yuan hesitated and shook her head. "No."
The previous ceremonies were like sprinkling water to him.
"Then why do you think that this ritual that causes you suffering is right?"
At that moment, Xia asked, "Judging from past examples, this is clearly abnormal. Haven't you ever had any doubts?"
“But Lord Wan Di said—!” He Yuan said excitedly, then realized he had let his name slip, and shut his mouth again, stammering, “Because it is indeed effective, and according to the temple’s records, helping someone remove something is a painful thing in itself.”
Essentially, it's about transferring the pain onto oneself.
Xia at that moment: "..."
Very well, now he knows who the other lecher is.
The Crown Prince of Xuanfeng City would actually do such a despicable thing?
It's unbelievable.
I heard that the Suspended Ones integrated into Ohma very smoothly. Could it be that the priests also played a role?
So the priest did all the work and effort, yet he was bullied by two people?
Xia didn't think anyone would be that stupid, so he decided to speak frankly.
"Let me be blunt, the ceremony you thought you were going to have was a hoax."
At that moment, Xia placed a book in front of He Yuan and said, "Take a look. The essence of the ritual is astral desire; it's a way for them to trick you into bed."
"The crown prince of Xuanfeng City doesn't have nightmares at all. Bai E has been eating and sleeping well in the Divine Enlightenment Tree Court these past few years and hasn't had any nightmares at all. You've been fooled by them."
He Yuan's hand moved swiftly across the pages of the book, her face growing increasingly pale.
A tear welled up in the corner of his eye, threatening to fall but holding back, as he stared blankly ahead with lifeless eyes.
"I was...scammed?"
We've finally reached this point.
He Yuan tried hard to suppress the urge to laugh, lowered her head, and pinched the fabric on her leg with her fingers.
In that moment, Xia looked helpless, and the priest's eyes flickered as he touched the tight, thick collar on Dayue's back.
"But—but what about Bai E's tone—"
But Bai Er's tone at that time truly indicated deep distress, and the tragedy of Ariel Michèle was indeed true.
He Yuan refused to believe it, but this was exactly what Xia had expected.
If this is accepted so easily, then the fact that the priest suffered for the first three years is questionable.
He understands that feeling very well—or rather, he's seen it all before.
Xia knew she needed to give He Yuan a quiet environment to think, but the priest was a precious asset; what if something happened in the Divine Enlightenment Tree Court...?
Ugh! So annoying!
At that moment, Xia could only stay by his side, reading a book.
Fortunately, the priest was quiet, just staring blankly with his head down, seemingly lost in thought.
Seeing that he was relatively quiet, Xia asked, "How did you determine that they needed to have the ritual lifted?"
Though the eyes cannot see, they can be certain... Could this also be a gift from Kefaller?
She answered him with a sob in her voice, "Because they all have a deep red color on them."
"People who are entangled by this color have a deep-seated obsession that is hard to shake off. After the ritual is performed, the red color will fade, and they will temporarily receive a boost."
"Was this also given by Kefal?" Naksha asked doubtfully.
He Yuan nodded.
Kefal is long gone, and no matter who asks, Heyuan can fabricate the "truth".
Xia's mind went blank at that moment.
He never imagined that Kefaller was the one who started it all.
What is the purpose of doing this?
Was He Yuan lying to him?
Xia didn't consider himself easily fooled, and he had done considerable research on human facial expression magic, but he couldn't see a trace of pretense on He Yuan's face.
So it's true?
Xia was in a daze at that moment.
Bai'er... Bai'er was actually an accomplice; the real culprit was Kefal?
"Teacher, do you need to perform a ritual?" He Yuan suddenly asked. "There's a lot of red on you too."
Xia: "...Huh?"
Why is he involved?
Well, he did admit that the priestess in front of him was quite beautiful, and no one in all of Ohma could compare to her.
But Xia was always detached from worldly desires and devoted herself to the study of the world, having no interest in such matters.
……Really?
Then why were you so gentle when you put the bracelet on her?
Xia closed her eyes briefly. "Yes, I do have obsessions, but I will never rely on vague divine pronouncements. I will resolve them myself."
The crane-like bird let out a wow of admiration.
"Teacher, you are so amazing. I believe you can do it."
Xia smiled at him at that moment, "Next time someone asks you to perform this kind of ritual, just give them my explanation and tell them—"
"You have to deal with your own obsessions and overcome your own nightmares. Don't pin your hopes on castles in the air that can disappear at any time."
"Finally, you'll be staying with me tonight."
He Yuan didn't react immediately and asked why, confused.
"To prevent anyone from using nightmares as an excuse to come looking for you again."
I couldn't have asked for this! I can finally get some rest tonight!
He Yuan breathed a sigh of relief; he had almost died last night.
The Golden Descendants here are truly...
It's outrageously large, outrageously long-lasting, and outrageously numerous.
-----------------------
Author's note: That's when Teacher Xia started ranking up.
Having finished writing this exhilarating sandwich, this cycle is now complete.
Just a heads-up, I'll most likely be rewriting some of the content, and Weng Xing might have a bit of a deus ex machina moment (mainly because I feel so sorry for newbies).
But I think that when Xiaobai truly started the eternal cycle of reincarnation, he developed a sense of self because he felt that he and his companions were worthy of being saved.
The author isn't very well-educated; they just felt that fanfiction should make up for some regrets and add a bit of drama.
Finally! I'd like to recommend a book that has already concluded, about making dumplings.
Title: "It's Better That My Ex-Husband 'Collapsed Iron' Died" Author: Rejecting Sick Son-in-Law ISBN: 9336895
Synopsis: Wei Sheng Yue Bo recently got her hands on a romance mobile game, and the gaming experience was excellent. The scenes were realistic, and the characters' emotions were spot-on.
The only downside is that this game doesn't have save files, so you can't restart it.
Wei Sheng Yue Bo really likes this game, but!! The problem is!! Every character he chooses to pursue dies in the later stages!!!
Oh, my husband's hard, so he's dead :)
And now, the masked fool named Aha on the phone screen is the last target that Wei Sheng Yue Bo plans to conquer.
As for the substantial inheritances left by her ex-husbands? She doesn't care.
The influence left by ex-husbands? I don't care.
The servants left behind by her ex-husbands? I don't care!!
Wei Sheng Yue Bo's biggest concern right now is the physical and mental health of her target; she can't let anyone else die!
If this character dies again, I'll quit the game :)
But the day after Wei Sheng Yue Bo confirmed his relationship with this person he was trying to win over, he was transported to another world.
After drifting in outer space for half a month, he was finally rescued and realized that he had transmigrated into the game "Micro Moon: Abababa".
Good news: He inherited all the assets in the account, including but not limited to what his deceased husbands left behind, so he doesn't have to worry about starving to death in the other world.
Bad news: He discovered that his husband hadn't actually died; he had either been reincarnated or ascended to godhood, and now they all wanted to rekindle their relationship with him.
And their involvement was also part of their time travel.
Micro-Life · Hand-rubbed Ion Cannon · Moon Thin: Haha, it's better that my ex-husband is dead, don't you think, husband?
:)
