Chapter 15
Is Living Under the Same Roof as a Beautiful Girl for Real?
Was Henry’s strike fast?
Really fast.
Jessica suddenly stood up from her seat, both hands pressed on the desk surface, eyes wide, looking somewhat incredulous.
While Luning was still chanting magic, Henry had already made his move and struck him down!
But the key point was that during this process, Henry hadn’t used any magic or illusions.
She had indeed clearly seen a Flying Sword directly penetrate Luning’s body!
The medical teachers below the stage rushed up to give Luning emergency treatment.
Now Luning had no mood to hate Henry anymore.
After all, he felt like he was about to die!
He couldn’t even figure out how Henry had caused that strike?
In his line of sight, it was just a Flying Sword that pierced through his chest, while Henry calmly stood with his hands behind his back.
As if someone else was controlling that Flying Sword.
The students in the audience seats were all gasping, a chill arising spontaneously.
They suddenly realized that the person they had called a powerless waste actually had such powerful strength!
But how exactly did he do all this?
Sherisa had the same question, except she thought one step further than others.
‘You think if I add more chips now, would I still have time to win him over?’
‘Not clear.’ The person in the shadows answered truthfully.
But Sherisa didn’t pay attention to her voice, talking to herself.
“Henry looks pretty good too, and based on his movements just now, he should have eight-pack abs.”
“I feel like developing a romantic relationship with him doesn’t seem like a strange thing either.”
“However, Her Royal Highness the Princess is a troublesome figure.”
“I need to make my move before she acts.”
Sherisa began calculating how to ask Henry out.
Meanwhile, the other teachers were equally surprised.
They were all seasoned magicians, naturally more able to sense Magical Fluctuations than the students.
But precisely because of this, they felt even more surprised.
Henry had completely not used any magical power!
And there was no one nearby controlling that Flying Sword either—it was as if a sword had flown out of nowhere and pierced through Luning’s chest.
The entire process looked like Luning was just unlucky.
But Principal Merlin didn’t think so.
His gaze stayed on Henry.
For some reason, after Luning fell, he didn’t even wait for the teacher to announce the results before turning around and walking away.
It gave the impression that he had predicted this outcome in advance.
Merlin narrowed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
In fact, Henry was just purely showing off.
Real men never look back at the defeated.
He wasn’t an idiot either.
When Luning came down to the stage, he could feel that the other party was holding back anger, probably reaching the peak of fury toward himself.
So at this time, Luning naturally wanted to solve himself in the most violent way.
As everyone knows, to cast magic with full destructive power requires a period of chanting.
People say magicians have strong combat power, but when there’s no time to chant spells, they’re just ordinary people who want to read books.
So the moment Luning opened his mouth, he used [Sword Control Technique], controlling the Flying Sword to pierce through his body.
“Brother, you still want to chant magic?”
“Guess where my sword went?”
Of course, he didn’t choose to directly kill Luning.
First, the academy wouldn’t allow such things to happen.
Second, he wanted Luning to remember his current self, which was equivalent to planting a seed in the other’s heart.
Didn’t Lore want to cultivate Luning as an heir?
As long as he encounters himself in the future, he would surely recall this scene.
By that time, no matter how powerful he becomes, he would feel fear when meeting himself.
Henry swept his gaze over the students on the platform.
He found that these people’s eyes no longer held the previous contempt, and instead, he could see a trace of fear in their eyes.
They seemed to be wary of his swift and decisive combat just now.
Jessica looked at Henry’s back, suddenly feeling a sense of pride in her heart.
When everyone was not optimistic about Henry, she felt that Henry would win!
As expected, that guy didn’t disappoint her either.
She slowly began to clap on the platform.
And when the students saw Her Royal Highness the Princess’s action, they quickly followed her in clapping.
As for Luning, who was still being treated nearby, naturally no one paid attention to him.
Henry turned his head to look at Jessica.
After the two looked at each other, Henry gave Jessica a thumbs up.
*****
[Congratulations to the host for completing the achievement: Fastest Kill Legend]
[Seven steps away, the sword is fast! Within seven steps, the sword is both accurate and fast!]
[Reward: Healing Hands]
[After experiencing long battles, the body will always be tired.
Healing Hands can help you regulate your companions’ bodies.
Come and try it!]
Who came up with this web game-style skill description?
And shouldn’t Healing Hands be for saving lives?
How did it become regulating the body?
Henry didn’t know what this reward was for.
Maybe he should open a massage shop outside and use this skill to make the shop’s reputation famous.
By that time, he might not even need to attend classes at school!
Reading books can’t compare to making money!
‘What?
You say there’s a golden house in books?
If you love living there, go live there yourself!’
Of course, this was just Henry’s wishful thinking.
He didn’t even know who was teaching Henry Black Magic, so how could he possibly live alone outside the school?
Moreover, there were many people in the academy who found him unpleasant.
If he left, wouldn’t those people be very happy?
Henry felt that as a qualified villain, he should make those who found him unpleasant feel unhappy.
If you’re happy, what am I happy about?
But if you’re unhappy, then I’m happy.
He returned to his room and closed the door, beginning to research whether he could control other objects.
Unfortunately, he seemed to only be able to control sword-like objects—even small knives wouldn’t work.
And he discovered that he could currently control at most two long swords.
One more sword and his physical strength couldn’t handle it.
It seemed he needed to exercise more regularly!
Henry made up his mind to definitely become the academy’s sword master!
He put down the long sword in his hand, and his heart also breathed a long sigh of relief.
His nerves had indeed been tense these past two days.
On one hand, he needed to figure out how to stay at Saint Nad Magic Academy; on the other hand, there were the interpersonal relationships within the academy.
He was clear about the various events that would happen at the academy in the future.
And in these major events, many key NPCs would gradually appear.
One of them was even hailed as a ‘savior’ figure.
However, he couldn’t contact them at this stage.
Henry lay on the bed, and a wave of fatigue suddenly swept through his body.
He slowly closed his eyes, preparing to meet Duke Zhou to appreciate beautiful women.
Dong dong dong!
A knocking sound rang out at the door.
Henry opened his eyes through gritted teeth.
Damn it, if this isn’t something important, I’m going to kill them!
He angrily walked to the door and yanked it open!
What met his eyes was an unfathomably deep ravine!
This made Henry, who had been somewhat sleepy, instantly alert.
This was definitely bigger than Jessica’s and Sherisa’s!
The other party was dressed in maid attire, with no expression on her face at all, looking like a silent girl.
Without thinking, this was definitely Sherisa’s person.
She handed an invitation to Henry, then spoke.
“Our young lady invites you to visit the mansion tomorrow.”
“Please don’t be late.”
After saying this, she didn’t wait for Henry’s reaction and walked directly past Henry into the room.
“Wait, you’re trespassing!”
“No, I’m just staying to take care of your food and daily life.”
“This is also arranged by the young lady.”
“I don’t need it!”
“No, you do.”
The maid just stared at Henry like this, as if she would persist until Henry agreed.
Living under the same roof as a beautiful girl this quickly?
This must be heaven’s compensation for me!
Henry pretended to be reluctant on the surface, but was already wildly rejoicing inside.
“Then you can stay, but I still don’t know your name?”
“Just call me Lilith.”
Lilith nodded respectfully, her professional demeanor extremely top-notch.
