Chapter 224: Teacher, I Want It Too!
“As long as the War Emperor doesn’t come out, the border defense is absolutely safe…” Hans affirmed. “Miss Angélique, the last bloodline of the Tulip family, has already reached the astonishing rank of a ninth-tier swordsman at the age of 26. With her true strength, she is not afraid of a tenth-tier expert at all. I believe she will definitely break through to the tenth tier within a few years.
The longer we drag it out, the greater our chances. But the danger is that the War Emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire probably can’t afford to wait. He is estimated to have started to decline from his peak. He has been actively looking for ways to cure the hidden injuries in his body all these years, and he still wants to conquer the entire continent before he dies of old age.”
Seeing the seriousness in the office, Chen Ran couldn’t help but ease the atmosphere. “That guy is just one person. Is he as scary as you make him out to be? I believe that even if he has the strength of the thirteenth or fourteenth tier on the continent, there must be a way to deal with him, right?”
“You don’t understand,” another senior history teacher came out and lectured, “The power of the War Emperor is not limited to pure personal strength. It symbolizes a totem of faith, just like the Tulip family. The War Emperor was once just the son of an ordinary tribal chief. He achieved a super transformation from nothing to something, symbolizing a miracle. When everyone believes that you are a miracle and follows you fanatically, then the army he leads will surely be invincible. This is the so-called faith!”
Chen Ran blinked, seemingly understanding a little. His interest in that War Emperor also increased a bit. He continued to ask, “Listening to you, the Austro-Hungarian War Emperor is still a very great person?”
“He is very powerful,” none of the teachers in the office objected to this view.
Another tutor began to point out some of the shortcomings of the Austro-Hungarian War Emperor. “Perhaps, he is also the person most hated by people in the world. Not to mention that there are too many people in our Turin Empire and the Ikadan Alliance who want him dead, even in the territories expanded by the Austro-Hungarian Empire, there are too many people who want him dead. His fame lies in his predatory expansion. His hands are stained with blood, and countless people have died. It is not an exaggeration to call him a god of slaughter. It’s fine while he’s alive, no one can resist him. But once he dies, the empire he created is very likely to face unprecedented trouble. Although the Austro-Hungarian Empire is at its peak, its foundation is too thin after all…”
A simple conversation made the situation clear. But after all, this was just one person’s opinion. Although it sounded reasonable, fighting a war was something for the military to handle, and it had little to do with these teachers.
However, some passionate students who had graduated had already submitted application forms to the military, willing to become soldiers to resist foreign invasion and defend the Turin Empire to the death, which somewhat drove the atmosphere in the campus regarding this aspect.
After chatting for a while, everyone dispersed.
Chen Ran then went to the Academic Affairs Office to find Sister Mina, wanting to talk about his replacement. Unknowingly, he had stayed in the Dawn Academy for several months, and it was almost time to leave.
But this time he missed her. He didn’t meet Mina. He asked a group of people, but they didn’t know where the director had gone. Chen Ran didn’t care. He would look for her again in a few days.
He specially went to Ella’s apartment. She was not on duty today, so she had a day off.
When Chen Ran arrived, Ella and Lucy were both in the house.
Because their relationship was open, the two women naturally accepted each other. They were already good friends, and now they were inseparable little sisters.
Because the little light bulb Dongfang was still studying on her own, and the room was full of Chen Ran’s two women, he didn’t have too many scruples. He took advantage of the two girls as soon as they met.
“I’m leaving in a few days. I find that I really can’t bear to leave you,” after fooling around for a while, Chen Ran enjoyed Ella’s thoughtful massage and the fruit Lucy fed to his mouth. He felt that the so-called good life was probably like this, and couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
Ella smiled. “Is everything at the school settled?”
“Not yet. I didn’t meet Sister Mina today. I’ll talk about it when I meet her another day. Anyway, it’s not a matter of a few days.”
Hearing Chen Ran’s words, Lucy turned around, glanced at the nearby calendar, opened her mouth, seemed to understand something, turned her head, and said mysteriously, “I know where Sister Mina went.”
Chen Ran generally wouldn’t ask too much about other people’s private affairs, but seeing Lucy’s face begging to be beaten, and the expression that said “if you don’t want to know, I’ll make you look good,” and the movement of her hand on his shoulder ready to pinch at any time, Chen Ran felt a little pain, so he cooperated and said, “Mmm, I’m very curious. Where did she go?”
“She went to see her lover.”
“Uh…” Chen Ran was stunned and asked curiously, “I always thought Sister Mina was single.”
“You guys don’t know, do you?” Lucy had a sly expression on her face and whispered, “Do you know who Sister Mina really is?”
“If you have a secret, just say it. I hate it when people keep me in suspense. Be careful of your husband’s torture,” Chen Ran directly tickled Lucy, making the girl giggle and beg for mercy. “Alright, alright, I’ll tell you. But you must not tell anyone, otherwise Sister Mina won’t let you off easily.” Lucy organized her words and said seriously, “…Actually, Sister Mina is the younger sister of the current emperor, the aunt of the prince, the current Eldest Princess.”
“…”
Chen Ran knew that Sister Mina had a big background, but he hadn’t expected it to be this big. And Ella had the same expression. Ordinary people simply couldn’t know this kind of secret.
Seeing the surprised expressions on Chen Ran and Ella’s faces, Lucy was a little satisfied and said loudly, “Sister Mina is the youngest daughter of the late emperor and also the one with the highest combat power. She also came out of the Dawn Academy back then, personally brought out by the vice-principal. Although she is very strong, she is not high-profile. Even so, she still has many suitors…”
At this point, Lucy’s tone couldn’t help but become a little helpless. “Influenced by her perfect brother Sayna, she likes men who are versatile. Later, she did meet a boy in the academy. He wasn’t outstanding-looking, but he had a piano skill that could penetrate the soul. Sister Mina fell in love with him and even took the initiative to confess her love…”
“That’s a very good thing…” Chen Ran blinked. Hearing the phrase “not outstanding-looking,” Chen Ran unknowingly substituted himself into the story.
Damn it, not handsome and still having a beauty chase after him? It would be strange if he didn’t have heaven-defying skills. He asked curiously, “What about that man?”
“Dead.”
Lucy’s answer shocked both Chen Ran and Ella. Chen Ran’s lips trembled, and he said in a deep voice, “How did that guy die?”
“He committed suicide,” Lucy sighed a long sigh and said sadly, “That boy actually was born with a terminal illness, and even he couldn’t see tomorrow. So he dedicated everything to music. Because he gave everything, his piano sound could even penetrate the soul and make people cry. Sister Mina fell in love with him, but the man couldn’t accept this heavy love. Although he also liked Mina very much, it was precisely because of this special love that he couldn’t bear to ruin Mina’s purity and tomorrow. For the obsession in his heart, that boy finished writing the last song of his life, left it for Sister Mina, and then, on a quiet dawn, ended the last days of his life early.”
“Perfect beyond comprehension, touching dedication…” Chen Ran shook his head. “If it were me, I would definitely be as romantic as possible before I die.”
Chen Ran suddenly remembered the expression on Sister Mina’s face after he finished his first class. That expression was the pain of having truly loved, but could only hide it deep in her heart. Unlike him now, who mostly got on the boat first and then bought a bunch of tickets.
Lucy rolled her eyes at Chen Ran and continued what she hadn’t finished. “I heard that on that night, it was still covered in snow. Someone faintly heard a heavenly sound in their dream. But the next day, the sun rose high, the ice and snow melted, and the flowers sleeping under the snow bloomed in advance, beautiful and moving…”
“I really feel sorry for that man…” Chen Ran told the truth. “If he had met me earlier, maybe a world-shaking love could have been fulfilled.”
While Chen Ran was boasting, the two girls looked at him at the same time. Chen Ran’s thick-skinned face couldn’t help but turn red. “Your husband is telling the truth. Lucy was pulled back from the hands of the Grim Reaper by me at that time. The danger at that time was such that if it had been an hour later, there would have been no chance at all.
Compared to this, what is a small terminal illness to me…”
“Tch, if you were really that powerful, the Austro-Hungarian War Emperor would tie you up and take you to his palace, threaten you with a bunch of princesses to make you make him twenty years younger, and then his hope of conquering the world would be promising…” Lucy pouted and retorted.
“Damn, you dare to tease your husband. No, I have to teach you a lesson. Big stick serve!”
In the blink of an eye, Chen Ran and Lucy were fooling around together. Back then, Chen Ran had relied on his absolute ability to tame Lucy, the “bad student” who always went against him. Not to mention now…
But then again, making people younger… Chen Ran seemed to really have this ability…
One of his later skills was called “Rejuvenation…” This skill should be similar to Hand of Silver and Disease Expulsion, and should have a different effect from the previous game description. Maybe it could really make people look younger.
As for the improvement of the physical state by that skill… he wasn’t sure. He personally felt that it should only be a change in appearance. If even the physical state could be completely restored to the past, how perverted would that be…
Mmm, leave a surprise for his women. If they knew that their man could keep them looking twenty or even younger forever, how would they feel?
But before that, get some interest first…
“Don’t run! Hehe, caught you, let’s see how you escape now.”
“Bad guy, what are you doing… Let go, or I’ll scream…”
“Scream, scream, who are you screaming for?”
“…”
“Sigh, seeing your reluctant look, I’d better find Ella… Ella, let’s go first…”
“No, teacher, I want it too!”
