"Who sent this Have Monastère investigate it thoroughly!"
Yes. {no wrong chapter novel reading, google search}
Ashina nodded calmly, her expression unperturbed.
She knew in her heart that the source of this matter was most likely Chairman Monaster's casual conversation about Dean Lauren's past with them in the student council room. Then, someone among Ranchi, Huberlian, and Frey leaked the information.
And it's highly likely to have fallen into the hands of a very bad person.
Oh, now she knows what's going on.
But Asana didn't say anything.
The morning sun streamed in from the side window, perhaps because it was particularly bright after the rain.
That ray of light illuminated Lauren's profile, making his gaze appear even more intense and cold.
"... "
"
His eyelids twitched slightly, his expression shifting from calm to serious, his lips pressed into a thin line.
Asuna also felt the change. Her hands rested on the file folder, maintaining silence.
Only the ticking of the clock on the wall broke the silence in the office. The steam rising from the coffee on the desk seemed to move at a slower pace too. In this atmosphere, time appeared to crawl by, each moment stretching out endlessly.
"No wonder our school's reputation has been declining in recent years."
Lauren calmed down after a while.
He always felt that the school atmosphere had gotten worse recently.
Although the school's atmosphere had problems from the start, even the dean of the Blockchain Institute ended up in jail.
By the way, did Lance agree to Adam's challenge How did it go
Loren always knew that good fortune rarely lasts, and misfortunes seldom come alone. At this moment, he was especially worried that Lanchi would still surprise him with something unexpected.
"...."
Ahsana fell silent again for a moment.
While Freya was quietly making her move, Lanchi directly closed the net.
Asana hesitated, pondering how to organize her words and describe the events to Lauren.
In this brief moment of silence, suddenly, a melodious and resonant bell chime pierced the enclosed space —
The communication terminal on Dean Lorenz's desk.
It was a historical piece of magical machinery. Its base was heavy black lacquered metal, with thick, winding wires connecting it to the communication central terminal of the Icterith Academy, capable of being switched directly to Headmaster Loren's office at any time.
Lorene furrowed her brow slightly in confusion, then slowly lifted her hand to take the receiver off its cradle and gently placed it to her ear.
"Juliana What can I do for you"
He didn't know why Julianna would contact him so early in the morning.
"...."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, as if they were puzzled by Loren's question.
How did the duel between Lanci and Adams go
Julianna's voice was still cold and aloof, but with a hint of anticipation lurking beneath the surface, her attention acutely focused on a particular outcome.
Loren looked at Asuna.
He saw the look on Asana's face, a mixture of wanting to speak and holding back.
Lorentz felt something was seriously wrong.
He knew Adams wouldn't budge from his stance of going after the scapegoat.
But Lauren didn't expect that Julianna would care about the competition even more than him.
I just got back to school and haven't gotten the details yet.
Lauren hurriedly explained to Julianna.
>"..."
Juliana hesitated for a moment,
Adam hasn't given me a report on the situation all day.
Juliana's voice held a hint of confusion.
Logically speaking, Adam should have contacted her immediately regardless of the outcome of this high-stakes gamble.
There was no news all day, like I had disappeared.
"…"
Lorentz's forehead began to bead with cold sweat.
Juliana, don't worry, I'll go see what's going on.
The information coming from the other end of the line was clearly not good news. As the conversation progressed, Lauren's face grew increasingly grave, her brow furrowed, and the carefree look in her eyes was now replaced with worry and confusion.
"OK."
Julianna answered crisply.
But quickly, she added at the end of her sentence,
Regardless of the outcome, I hope you will keep your promise.
"What promise"
Lauren felt increasingly uneasy. She asked the same question into the headset twice, but by the time she uttered it, Juliana had already hung up.
Where is Adams
After hanging up the phone, Lauren looked at Asuna with both determination and deep fear.
Asana was speaking hesitantly just now, and he no longer had time to listen slowly to her narration.
The Seventh Courtyard.
Without having time to ask Asana about the specifics, Lauren's figure instantly vanished from the office, leaving only the faint hum of the antique magical devices in the room and the flickering shadows cast by the sunlight on the desk.
……
Above the walls of the Ikareth Academy, shadows of birds often flit across the sky with the speed and ferocity of a sudden storm.
However, at this moment, the wind swirled around Loren. His figure in the wind seemed to transform into a feather, merging with the wind and soaring rapidly.
The cluster of buildings of the academy quickly diminished in Loren's sight as he soared over the red-brick and green-tiled structures, the ancient oaks and the lake, in a blink, he saw the grand edifice of learning and education.
Loren's black coat whipped in the wind, its edges like a ghostly apparition dancing in the darkness.
His countenance was resolute, his eyes gleaming with light, as if able to pierce through everything in this world.
The wind rushing past at high speed grazed Lorens' cheeks, bringing a slight warmth, but he didn't mind. His mind was focused solely on one thing: reaching the seventh level of the atrium as quickly as possible to see what was happening.
The current situation is not actually that bad.
He is upright and not afraid of crooked shadows.
Although there are some rumors.
But he wouldn't go to the Kingdom of Avalor just to look for Juliana.
There was no important business that required him to go there in person, and the idea of a date was absurd.
Even if he took ten thousand steps back and truly met Juliana, the two of them would never go on a date.
This kind of rumor will surely fall apart on its own.
What he needed to figure out right then and there was what Lanchi had gotten himself into this time.
Loren was soaring above the Ictereus Academy, aiming to reach the rooftop terrace of the Learning and Education building directly. However, she suddenly spotted two familiar figures in her line of sight.
Lanche and Huberlian walked steadily alongside a young student he wasn't very familiar with, along the broad stone path leading to the Sage Academy.
Loren's heart beat a little faster, he decided to stop the wind magic, gradually reducing its power so that he could land softly.
As his foot touched the ground, the storm that surged from beneath him gradually contracted, eventually vanishing into thin air.
She floated gently down from the air and landed softly on the ground. Then, Lauren looked directly at the three students in front of her.
Lan Qi was still as calm and composed as ever, facing each day with serenity.
And Huberlian, seeing Dean Lauren, had a glimmer of wariness in her eyes, seeming somewhat guilty.
Beside the two of them stood another student that Lauren didn't recognize. He looked quite awkward, but he didn't seem to be from their school. He must be a student from the Aloran Royal Academy's academic visiting team, and at first glance, he seemed like an honest person.
