The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life
chapter-36

Astronomy was basically a hobby class, and the class time depended entirely on the arrangement of Professor Didi.

Although the timetable said 19:30-21:00, it could be adjusted freely by the Professor.

For example, today's astronomy class started at 18:00 in the evening.

...

Since there was no class on Wednesday afternoon, most of the students were not in a hurry. After receiving the notice, they discussed quietly for a while, guessing what Professor Didi would teach in astronomy.

But, there were too few connections between astronomy and daily life. It was even more illusory than the magic that could be experienced firsthand. Students could only rely on their imagination to think about what would be taught.

White and Robert were not that relaxed.

The two suddenly became nervous.

It was not that they weren't thinking of previewing the textbook in advance; it's just that the astronomy class didn't even have a textbook!

Moreover, after 1:00 in the afternoon, their debt would be doubled, that was a full 320 credits!

But they only had 120 credit points at the moment, and it was simply impossible to get 200 points from the next three classes.

So they had completely abandoned the idea of earning credits from the classroom.

Robert just wanted to lie down and wait for his death.

White put his hope on the in-class match of Friday's duel class!

The championship reward for the in-class competition was a full 1,000 credits. If he could get this reward before 1 pm on Friday afternoon, he could pay off his debts!

White's original plan was to use his [Phantom Magic Beast] to practice duels starting tonight to improve the chances of winning.

But now, not only was the night time occupied, but the time for supplementary sleep was also less!

"Wait, speaking of [Phantom Magic Beast]..."

White couldn't help looking at Robert and muttered, "Robert, tomorrow morning is The Introduction To Magic, where is your [Phantom Magic Beast]?"

Robert's expression gradually changed from nervousness to fear.

...

Dark Demon was in the library.

Among the first-year students, there were four who spend most of their spare time in the library.

They were Dark, Emma, Sara, and an unknown student from Fool House.

→Exactly one for each House!

They were basically top students in their respective houses.

After Dark received the notice of the start of the astronomy class, he wanted to find some astronomy books to read.

Because astronomy itself was a hobby class, there was no final assessment, so he was more casual when looking for books.

The two books called "Astronomical Symbols" and "Starry Sky Uncensored" aroused his interest.

So, he pulled out both books and brought them to the desk in the reading room.

The reason why he was interested in "Astronomical Symbols" because he saw a circle of symbols on the cover of this book, and one of them was the "⊙" that appeared on the [Pride] coat of arms.

"Oh, this is a symbol of the sun."

Dark drew a circle on the paper, then added a dot, thoughtfully.

"Pride's star symbol is the sun, which doesn't seem so unacceptable."

"The sun is the central celestial body of the solar system."

"The eight planets, asteroids, meteors, comets, the outer Neptune celestial body, and interstellar dust in the solar system all revolve around the sun."

"The rank of Pride is 1, which is exactly the number that matches the symbol of the center."

"If I remember well, one of Eevee's evolution forms has the power of the sun."

"This is a reference point."

"How to connect the sun and Pride… maybe it can help me analyze the deadly sin of [Pride]."

...

Before Dark knew it, it was five o'clock in the afternoon.

Dark ate some desserts in the snack room, drank a cup of "scentless black tea", then packed up and left the library.

Today, he drew his [Pride] point out to reserve as well. His goal was to accumulate as many credits as possible before Friday afternoon, then he would get a container that could keep Thinking Substance fresh longer, and return [Bottle of Thoughts] to Professor Cazer.

While passing by Emma, Dark caught a glimpse of her studying "The Value of Money".

This made Dark a little bit confused. He wondered what this girl was doing.

Thinking about the quarrel between her and White and Robert, Dark couldn't help shaking his head.

The astronomy classroom was at the spiral clock tower in the center of Saint Marian Castle.

Only after climbing upwards along the external spiral staircase and ascending the entire twelfth floors could students reach Professor Didi's astronomy classroom.

If students didn't come early, they would definitely be late.

Dark felt a little fortunate that he had developed a good habit of coming to the classroom early.

This class was still attended by the students from all four Houses. The students of Magister House were obviously more interested in astronomy. Many people were already whispering excitedly in the classroom before Dark arrived.

Professor Didi was a very kind little fairy. As the dean of Fool House, she would not be angry at all even when deducting points from students.

And as long as the class was over, she would become very easy-going.

Even if the students were chatting in the classroom as they were now, she wouldn't mind.

——Yes, Professor Didi was already sitting on the podium.

...

It was exactly six o'clock.

The bell for the beginning of the class did not ring.

Instead, it was a loud bell that symbolized the alternation of day and night!

"Duang!"

The bell rang across the campus.

The sun set and the moon rose.

On the gradually dimming spiral staircase, White and Robert were desperately climbing up like rabbits.

The two set up their alarm clocks and planned to get up on time. But after they got up, they stayed in bed for another ten minutes before rushing out of the dormitory.

Naturally, they didn't eat anything, and of course, they also didn't sleep well.

A round of magical chess before going to bed caused them to lose precious sleep time.

Running on an empty stomach made them even more tired.

"It's over!"

The bell of despair hit their desperate souls.

"Bang!"

The two banged open the door and rushed into the classroom!

"Five points each, Gawd and Brogheim."

Professor Didi didn't even turn her head to look at them, she drew the moon on the blackboard.

She was obviously intended to talk about astronomical knowledge related to the moon in this lesson.

White and Robert walked dispiritedly into the classroom and sat down in the other corner of the last row.

As for the credits deducted, the two no longer cared that much.

Anyway, they would not be able to gather enough credits, no matter what they did.

...

Since it was the first astronomy class for the first years, Professor Didi didn't teach anything too profound.

In the second half of class, she suddenly waved her hand, and the ceiling of the classroom instantly became transparent.

It was like a water mirror, shortening the distance from the night sky.

The students had never observed the moon so close.

The dark night sky rippled with water waves, a round moon that occupied the field of vision hung in the ceiling like a jade plate!

"Wow!"

The original boring atmosphere was gone.

The classroom became lively in an instant.

Professor Didi's face gently watched the children exclaim in amazement while looking at the full moon and she didn't stop them.

Strangely, there were two people who couldn't help but feel something surging in their hearts when they looked at the full moon at a very close distance.

One was Dark.

And the other was White.
