Ice Snow Princess had yet to realize the severity of the problem.
As Dekan was walking around the campus, he happened to see a group from Hewenlit Academy passing by in the distance.
They also spotted Dekan.
They were all stunned.
They couldn’t believe Dekan was dressed this way.
The nature of the visit had instantly changed.
“Ugh, I’m so jealous.”
Alice was biting her lips, unable to hide her envious expression.
She wished she could meet with Ice Snow Princess like Dekan, for a meeting of prominent figures.
She even felt like going to find Dekan right then, chatting with him a bit, showcasing her princess demeanor. No, it wasn’t about showing off, it was her grace.
It’s all Dekan’s fault for using strange words.
Now she finds her own speech becoming increasingly bizarre.
Mia quickly grabbed Alice’s slender arm, shaking her head with a somewhat helpless look in her eyes.
“Alice, let’s not disturb him today. After all, it’s important for him to undergo the review.”
Mia advised.
If she didn’t hold Alice back, Alice would have walked toward Dekan already.
My princess, how could you always forget so quickly?
When you were so upset last night and cried a lot because of a social embarrassment.
Have you not noticed that the more you interact with Dekan, the more likely you are to cry?
Mia couldn’t help but start mentally ranting.
Mia wanted to sleep well tonight; she didn’t want Alice to come crying to her in the middle of the night again.
Without giving Alice some sleeping medicine, her sleep posture is really terrible!
“Hmm, alright.”
Alice obediently nodded her head.
She thought what Mia said did make a lot of sense.
If she delayed Dekan’s time, making Ice Snow Princess wait too long and get angry, it would harm Dekan.
Mia was much more mature and composed.
Then Alice reluctantly looked at the retreating back of Dekan, then painfully turned her head away.
Following the Hewenlit Academy group, they went to the laboratory they were visiting today.
…
“You’ve arrived; Lady Ice Snow Princess is waiting for you inside.”
Dekan was brought to the door of a room on the top floor of an ancient tower.
It was a stone door with a white jade and dark gray hue.
Even without pushing the door, Dekan could feel the faint coldness emanating from behind it.
After thanking the teacher who guided him, Dekan lightly knocked on the door twice.
“Enter.”
A clear yet cold voice came from inside.
Dekan used a bit more force to push the heavy door open.
Thankfully, the door wasn’t too heavy.
Otherwise, with his third-tier strength E, he wouldn’t be able to push it open, which would be embarrassing.
At this moment, Dekan couldn’t help but start missing Cornelia.
After getting used to having her around, he felt somewhat incomplete after being apart from her for just a short while.
The spacious hall that came into Dekan’s view was like a miniature library, or more like a combination of a sitting room and a study.
There were tall bookshelves on all four walls.
In the middle of the hall was a desk, behind which sat a young woman with white hair and silver eyes.
Her face was as if perfectly sculpted, while her skin, as delicate as sheep fat jade, and her elegant posture like that of a moonlight elf, proved that she wasn’t an artwork but a living being.
Relatively noticeable were her slightly pointed ears, possessing the beauty of both elves and humans.
The moment Dekan met her gaze, he realized.
This Ice Snow Princess was definitely not someone who’s easy to deal with.
Her eyes carried absolute arrogance and dominance, as if rejecting people from miles away and pushing them away.
As Dekan stepped into the room with one foot, but didn’t have the chance to lift his other foot fully in:
“Passed.”
Ice Snow Princess’ indifferent voice came.
Dekan was momentarily taken aback.
Ice Snow Princess’ negligence towards the special examination far exceeded Dekan’s expectations.
She didn’t even bother asking a single question.
She didn’t even want to do the minimal formality.
She just barely completed the most basic formal requirement —— “Meeting” —— and ended the special examination within 0.5 seconds.
Under normal circumstances.
Dekan would have thanked her and left without a word.
He would happily accept such a quick special examination, hoping that the next stage of the examination would be just as efficient, allowing him to become a certified special card maker sooner.
But now, Dekan felt somewhat a headache.
He still had something to communicate to Ice Snow Princess to prevent her from being captured.
If she would cooperate, dealing with the Rebirth Church’s scheme would be much easier.
But looking at her attitude, it was going to be troublesome.
“Lady Ice Snow Princess, I have…”
“Leave.”
Ice Snow Princess didn’t intend to give Dekan the chance to speak.
Dekan maintained a smile on the surface, with veins already appearing on his forehead.
“The Rebirth Church is trying to hunt you.”
Dekan accelerated his speech, revealing the critical information.
“…”
This time, Ice Snow Princess seemed to be silent for a moment.
It was unclear whether she had decided to let Dekan continue or if she simply didn’t feel like communicating with him further for a short while.
She remained in an aloof state, not even sparing Dekan a glance.
“They have obtained a seven-tier epic spell card. They can forcibly enslave enemies by proclaiming their name, race, and gender. Their target is you, and they will start the action in the next few days, so I need…”
“Leave.”
Once again, before Dekan could finish speaking, Ice Snow Princess interrupted him.
The room, already colder than the outside, seemed to drop by two degrees instantly.
If Dekan let Ice Snow Princess say “leave” a third time, he would likely end up being an ice sculpture being carried away.
Dekan didn’t say anything more.
He turned around and left, slamming the door behind him.
There was a cordial smile on his face, but it made the several teachers waiting outside feel uneasy.
“What happened?”
“Did he not pass?”
“Why is there this bone-chilling feeling that is mixed with a sense of conflict?”
After Dekan walked away, some of them whispered among themselves.
…
Dekan’s fists were opening and closing repeatedly, as if restraining something.
It was rare for him to endure without resorting to physical force.
If this happened in the Shadow World, he would definitely not be so composed.
He really had the impulse to kill Ice Snow Princess with his bare hands just now.
But in the upcoming Tristin City defense battle, this eighth-tier power source could not be missing.
Without Ice Snow Princess, the offensive of the Rebirth Church might be impossible for Tristin City to withstand.
After all, if the Rebirth Church wants to defeat Ice Snow Princess, it must have prepared eighth-tier power, even one that measures up or surpasses Ice Snow Princess.
Ice Snow Princess must not fall prematurely.
Unfortunately, this arrogant and cold-headed eighth-tier special card maker was not under Dekan’s control.
Not every temporary teammate could be as rational and reliable as Lord Rampard.
“Remember this.”
Dekan clenched his teeth, muttering to himself.
After dealing with the Rebirth Church,
If he doesn’t make Ice Snow Princess wear a cat-ear maid outfit and dance,
He would not be named Dekan!!!
