Chapter 38 Saint Marian's Youth Love Story Really Has a Problem

White Gawd carefully pushed away the mural and got out of the wall.

He had vaguely noticed that someone had been following him, but when he was about to turn around and check, the pink ➹ pointed directly at the wall.

Above the ➹, the words "magic energy" slowly appeared.

He reached out his left hand and sent out his magic energy. The wall became rippled like water.

After he gritted his teeth, he entered a well-hidden secret passage.

On both sides of the secret passage, there was a torch every few meters.

When someone approached, the torch was ignited, showing the path.

The secret passage had many twists and turns, and there were also many fork roads. It was sometimes winding like a snake, sometimes moving ups and downs, confusing White’s senses. White could not even tell whether he was going down or up.

After coming out of it finally, what caught his eye was the scene he could see everywhere in the castle.

After a few steps, he entered another secret passage.

After repeating it a few times, White was completely stunned.

As the fog on the pages of the book gradually dissipated, ➹ became blurred, and "Into the Abyss" returned to silence.

White felt like he had been tricked!

...

After that, it took a full half an hour before White escaped from the maze-like secret passage and returned to the common room of the Knight House.

Robert was still rushing to make [Phantom Magic Beast].

A fellow student from the same year happened to be interested, so he instructed him a few words.

Probably because Robert now understood the difficulty and value of accumulating credits, he was very cautious with every step, so the production process was fairly smooth. Now he had reached the most critical and also the most difficult step- Drawing No. 1 magic refining circle.

White watched silently, not daring to interrupt.

While drawing this magic refining circle that even Dianna could draw successfully, Robert was extremely nervous!

As a result, his finger trembled and his pen slid away. He made a mistake!

"No--"

"Don't be nervous, Robert, you can continue!"

White rushed over and held his hand!

Robert was sweating profusely, but with White's help, he successfully controlled his pen and continued to draw lines.

Although the extra stroke was very eye-catching, he finally completed the entire No. 1 magic refining circle!

The magic refining circle shined successfully.

Robert was trembling nervously, so only after multiple tries, he was finally able to pick up the Phantom Magic Beast's hair smoothly and put it into the magic circle.

As the hair was gradually engulfed by the golden light of No. 1 magic refining circle, the light became brighter.

The golden silk threads were separated from the No. 1 magic refining circle, wrapping around the magic card and forming a golden cocoon in the end!

...

White said, "One more step, Robert, instil your magic energy, and think about what you like."

Robert stretched out his hand and pressed it on the golden cocoon, slowly injecting magic energy, "What do I like? Magic chess?"

The magic card emerged from the cocoon.

Robert was a little excited to pick up this magic card that had been condensed with the hard work of the duo for three days. The original vague transparent outline on the card surface immediately began to change after his touch.

It was neither the Jack Russell Terrier, Ron's Patronus in Harry Potter, nor the little mouse like Ron's pet, but the eternal castle in the magical chess!

[Card name: Phantom Magic Beast]

[Type: Spirit card]

[Level:✪]

[Race: Element-type]

[Attribute: Ground]

[Magic energy: 300]

[Attack:0]

[Defense: 300]

[Ultimate: Defend]

...

When Robert summoned his [Phantom Magic Beast: Castle], everyone was stunned.

The castle of Magic Chess was equivalent to the player’s life, occupying a fixed 3X3 grid, and had a health bar of ten times that of a single piece. It could consume one round to activate the inherent skill: Defend, and halve the damage taken on the castle in the next round.

Once the castle was captured, the player would declare defeat.

And Robert's [Phantom Magic Beast, Castle] was also a huge 27 cubic-meter giant. Once summoned, it gave people a sense of an unshakable solidity!

"Wow! Robert, you are amazing!"

White patted Robert on the shoulder, surprised.

Robert was also so excited that his neck turned red. He said excitedly, "Come here, my castle, let me take a good look at you!"

→The castle-chan didn’t even move an inch.

After several attempts, Robert's face turned pale.

Someone suddenly laughed, "What's so surprising, Robert? The castle of magic chess cannot be moved. Isn't it common sense? Hahaha, hahahaha! I’m sorry, I can't help it anymore, hahahahaha!"

...

That night, Robert dreamed that he was transformed into a majestic castle, but was gnawed by a group of big-fanged rats from the corner of the wall and eventually collapsed.

...

White also had a dream.

He dreamed of the librarian of the academy library, that senior sister. He was walking together with her in the garden behind the academy.

...

...

On Thursday, everything seemed to be back to normal.

Both White and Robert returned to their usual performance, no longer having the motivation to study. But they were a little more disciplined than before, and would still avoid Emma after class.

Emma didn't even think about talking to them.

Dark was accumulating credits as always, saving the credits to go to the Traveller Street again.

Because he was a substitute teacher, for one lesson he was rewarded 200 points!

In addition, because he complained that he didn’t receive enough credit reward for [Column Calculation Method], Professor Lily gave him another 150 points.

So, earning credits was really easy for him.

...

After the magic history class in the afternoon was over, Dark headed to the library as usual.

People would gradually grow up, now he was able to walk past Pandora-senpai without changing his expression.

After walking away, he suddenly turned his head and saw that White was talking to the senior sister in a nervous manner. This made him realize something, so he couldn't help but smile.

The arithmetic class gave out new homework again. Whenever this happened, Dianna and Rose would always come look for him.

Dark looked at the two little girls who sat down opposite the desk obediently, feeling a little helpless.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Dianna finally finished the homework. She leaned against the back of the chair and stretched her stiff body.

After completing the stretch, Dianna became restless. She quietly drew out a flower card with black rose drawn in the back from the card pouch, and moved towards Dark along the table.

"Hey, Dark, do you want to try this divination card? I heard that it's very effective!"

Dark raised his head to take a look and said casually, "Love divination?"

"So you know..." Dianna, like a kitty who was exposed for stealing dried fish, moved the [love divination card] back a little bit.

"I’m not living under a rock." Dark was a bit amused.

He asked again, "Where did you get this?”

"Huh?" Dianna thought for a while, "One was from the candy shop. And then, I found this one in the gap of the door when I went out this morning."

Dark frowned slightly. "Someone is spreading this flower card? Can you let me see this card?"

Dianna immediately said with joy, "Of course you can!"
