Chapter 414: The Heavenly Comeback of the Gorgeous Girl Leader
So, what does it mean? It’s all about fate, right?
When fate arrives, does that mean the Elf Forest is just around the corner?
Now, let me ask you this: you elf folks don’t really have much connection with the Buddhist realm, do you?
But Yuliya just shrugged it off internally.
Not quite sure if it’s about fate or karma over there, but elves seem to be all about the vibe of fate.
You could say it differently—let’s go with destiny!
So Yuliya wasn’t disheartened; she decided to just go with her own flow.
At that moment, Yuliya noticed Mitina staring at her intently, so she asked, “What’s up?”
“I’m just wondering about your true strength. It feels like the Gold Level you’re showing isn’t the real deal,” Mitina replied.
“Oh?” Yuliya raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “You can tell?”
“There’s this subtle feeling. Ever since I learned you’re Astathin’s Resonator, it became even clearer. But I think I might be the only one in the academy who can sense it,” Mitina explained.
Yuliya chuckled, “Well, I guess I’m about on your level—mid-tier Legendary.”
Mitina was incredibly strong.
Though discussing her age might be considered rude, let’s just say she must be several centuries old.
Elves live a long time, and the stronger ones live even longer.
Moreover, Mitina’s prowess can’t just be measured by levels.
As it goes, today’s Legends are not what they used to be—much weaker.
From Yuliya’s perspective, the current Legendary Level is more like half-Legendary. They have the mindset and experience, but the legacy power is definitely lacking.
But as a member of the elven royal family, Mitina’s access to heritage is beyond what others could ever compare to.
“I see,” Mitina smiled. “So it seems you’re still above me. Truly worthy of being chosen by our ancestors.”
“With that kind of strength, being a student at my academy seems a bit off,” Mitina said.
“Not a problem, I don’t mind,” Yuliya replied.
After all, she was just passing through for a bit and would be leaving soon.
“But I find it inappropriate. How about you join our academy directly and become a mentor?” Mitina suggested.
“What?”
Yuliya blinked.
Not a sister… I’m a new student just enrolled today! What is this…
Wait a minute…
Looking at Mitina’s smiling, serene face, but her eyes sparkling with some strange light.
She knows that expression well—she used to wear it all the time.
Whoa! Someone is making some serious calculations here!
While it doesn’t lose the grip on allies, it certainly leaves a connection.
I’m the one the divine is looking for, which must be a step up from your average royal status.
High status, strong strength, making a friend here isn’t a bad deal.
Plus, heck, she could score a mentor for the academy, turning her into a workhorse.
She’s already winning twice over!
But Yuliya wasn’t in a hurry. A playful smile danced on her lips. “So, what’s in it for me?”
Seeing Yuliya’s expression, Mitina sighed.
Time to lay all cards on the table.
“Anything you desire from the academy, you can have. Ah, and if you want me…”
“Stop! No!”
Old lady, what the heck!
What’s up with these elves? So far, I’ve met two, and both want to throw themselves at me!
Wait, could the problem lie with the elves or with me?
No way! Definitely not my issue!
“Well, since you’ve put it that way, I suppose I could settle for just a name.”
I suppose I can mooch off a whole academy for knowledge—nothing fishy there!
“I mean, look at me.”
Yuliya gestured to herself.
“That’s easy. We’ll disguise you. After that, you’ll get a special mentor uniform. Just pretend to be one of us elves— your vibe’s perfect for it! Your authority will explain itself even better.”
“Fine. But I’m still keeping my student status.”
Yuliya raised her hand and began conjuring a version of herself, soon forming a 1.5-meter-tall copy.
“Will this pass under the radar at the academy?”
Her replica replied, “A bit rough; needs some refining.”
“Well, given that there should be quite a few Legendary mentors around, it’ll indeed take some effort.”
“Perhaps there are special abilities to be careful of.”
Mitina watched her converse with herself, totally unfazed.
Although one could tell they were the same person, the way they interacted was remarkably seamless.
Because they both radiated vastly different vibes.
One was so easy-going, while the other was as serious as a thunderstorm.
Suddenly, both turned towards Mitina and said in unison, “This should keep most people from recognizing us, right?”
Mitina lowered her head a tad, “Your abilities leave me in awe.”
In reality, it was just a difference between the royal version and the wise version.
As long as the appearance was altered, anyone unfamiliar wouldn’t think they were the same person.
“But your copy still looks different from usual. Our academy just developed a bionic material that even other mentors can hardly distinguish, which might be of help.”
“Okay, I’ll check that out later.”
And just like that, the deal was sealed.
From now on, in person, as Riya, the newly enrolled student who got an Excellence rating on her entrance exam, while her replica would be known as Yuliya, the newly hired mentor at Saint Felis Academy’s Magic Academy.
After Yuliya left the dean’s office, she turned a corner and spotted Okor waiting for her.
“How was your chat with the dean?”
“Not bad! She should have a pretty good impression of me,” Yuliya replied.
“That’s great! Let me take you back; just follow my lead on the enrollment process.”
Okor led her back the same way.
Along the way, Yuliya suddenly asked, “Uh, is Mentor Okor from the Magic Academy?”
“Absolutely! Why do you ask?”
“I heard from the dean that the Magic Academy is split between Classical and Modern Schools. Which one do you belong to?”
“Classical School.”
“Oh, neat!”
Okor frowned slightly.
He couldn’t shake the feeling that there was more to that statement, but he couldn’t quite pin it down.
Is this how a genius thinks? Always making reflections that no one else can understand?
Whatever, let’s leave it at that.
What Okor didn’t know was that Yuliya’s other identity was that of a Classical School mentor, with a rank and authority even higher than his own.
Essentially, she was a direct superior, and she dropped in unannounced.
But that was a secret known only to Dean Mitina and Yuliya for now.
After all, this had just been arranged.
In any case, Yuliya had a decent impression of Okor.
So, buddy, if anything comes up, you handle it on your own.
I’ll do my best to avoid piling up work on you.
