Outside the canopy rest area, there was a knock on the door of the Occultology Office.
Professor Hagrid, who is preparing tomorrow's teaching materials, receives a surprise and unexpected guest.
"Oh Mr. Lu Li...please sit down quickly."
During dinner, Lu Li came to Professor Hagrid alone to tell him the reason for his visit, hoping to receive private instruction.
"No, I can't do that..." Professor Hagrid, who seemed to worship Lu Li devoutly, rejected him. "I agree with the dean and Professor Chris. You shouldn't learn the cursed title directly. You should think of it as Gai Li."
It’s not possible to just put a roof on a house.”
This is the reason why Lu Li originally contacted Giant Tree Academy to learn the cursed title, and they suggested that he become a student.
There is no quick fix to release the power of the cursed title, and it requires the assistance of a variety of knowledge. Occultism, alchemy, and a little bit of divination. Among them, occultism needs to be paired with weird knowledge classes and other world classes; alchemy needs to be paired with botany.
Even so, the formal way to master [Release the Curse Title] is only available in middle grades.
"You can wait for 12 weeks, when the Mystical Society will start the course for the Cursed Title."
However, Professor Hagrid could understand Lu Li's urgency: "I will prepare an introduction to the Cursed Title in the mystery class tomorrow... In Area 3 on the second floor of the library, you can gain something there... Don't say I told you.
"
Professor Hagrid couldn't help but lower his voice and revealed some clues to Lu Li.
"Thanks."
"You're too kind."
Farewell to Professor Hagrid, Lu Li headed to the mixed zone
It is the only area where the lower grades communicate with the lower classes, and it is also the only way for the lower grades to "go out at night". The library is located there.
Lu Li, who was passing through the corridor, had already seen the carved three-dimensional door of the library. It was tightly closed, and a gatekeeper wearing a short brown cape was performing his duties well.
"Where are you going? Mr. 'Legendary Exorcist'." The thin gatekeeper said with a mean and mocking tone: "The auditorium is on the other side."
"I'm going to the library."
The closed library door made Lu Li realize something.
"The library is only open to lower grades before six o'clock. It seems that you are not a student who likes to listen to lectures." The annoying tone of the gatekeeper confirmed Lu Li's thoughts.
"No one told me I would come tomorrow at noon."
Lu Li didn't care about his unfriendly attitude and calmly replied before leaving.
In the wall pattern that no one paid attention to, a black beetle watched the whole process faithfully.
…
"angry!"
At the mysterious long table in the auditorium, Fodort, wearing exquisite black lace, threw the spoon back into the wooden bowl.
The dog meat on the other side of the long table raised his head from the basin and said blankly: "Why? There is obviously so much food that can't be finished..."
"Because you damn dirty and despicable pig ate my precious bugs!" Fudot screamed uncontrollably. If the spoon was still there, she would knock out all the vicious teeth of Dog Meat.
"I didn't know it was so important to you..." Gorou stretched out his tongue and licked the pumpkin filling off the tip of the pen. "I'll compensate you tomorrow..."
"What are you going to pay for?"
"Lu Li, I left a pumpkin pie for you!"
Gorou, who stood up and waved to the door, interrupted Fudot's next sarcasm. Lu Li entered the auditorium through the side door next to the closed door.
After sitting down, Gorou brought a complete pumpkin pie.
The sweetness and softness of pumpkin are deeply loved by young students, not to mention that it is a vegetable.
"Thanks."
Gorou was moved by Lu Li's thank you, but soon became disappointed because of the emptiness in front of him.
His eyes were fixed on the untouched plate of fried chicken drumsticks in Fudot's hand: "Is that what you want to give to Lu Li?"
"No." Fudot, who was about to push it to Lu Li quietly, replied fiercely.
"Can……"
"Can't!"
Fudot expressed her resistance through actions, grabbing two chicken legs and stuffing them into her mouth, her cheeks puffed up like a quail.
"oh……"
Dogrou was as disappointed as a puppy, and even seemed to have drooped ears. Until Lu Li pushed the pot of pumpkin pie back to Dogrou, the illusion turned into a wagging tail again.
He reminded Lu Li of Pusius.
"I'm... almost full... just a little bit closer." Gorou tried hard to resist the temptation of food.
"I don't like sweets." Lu Li poured the broth into the mashed potatoes.
"Lu Li is indeed as good as the legend says!"
Dogrou, who got his own pumpkin pie, said happily and buried his face in it again.
Lu Li came very late, and many students had already finished eating and left. However, they would deliberately pass by Lu Li and then greet him.
This situation will continue for at least some time.
Lu Li ate quietly while listening to the exchanges among the students around him.
Most of the students were happy and proud to enter the giant tree of the college, and also felt a sense of happiness about the beauty here.
Two students from the Alchemy Department next door were whispering about the beauty of Giant Tree Academy: the bright and warm residence, the clean and delicious food, and their expectations for the future.
Fudot finished the whole pot of chicken drumsticks, barely holding back her bulging belly, and left gracefully.
Soon after Lu Li finished eating, the dog meat was still fighting at the table. He always stayed until the end before leaving, his stomach seemed never satisfied.
Lu Li returned to his dormitory to spend a peaceful night. In the dark morning of the next day, the lower grade students who had eaten breakfast headed to the occult classroom to start their first class.
The classroom where the professor has not yet arrived is always full of noise. This noise temporarily stopped when Lu Li arrived, and then quickly changed from a buzzing of trivial whispers back to noisy again.
Until Professor Hagrid walked into the classroom.
A sudden scream was particularly harsh in the quiet classroom.
The dog meat palm held a cockroach with only half its body left and presented it to Fodort. It was still alive, holding disgusting internal organs squirming in the palm of the hand.
"I'll pay you...it's as big as that one."
"Get away! Don't come near me!"
The screaming Fudote even forgot to fight back, and just stayed as far away from the dog meat as possible and stuck to the other female student.
"Well... maybe it doesn't fit."
Dog meat is regrettable...forget it, please don't eat it in class...it will affect other students."
Mr. Hagrid sighed, and the students threw half of the cockroach into their mouths with ugly expressions.
"Mr. Dogrou..., came to the podium.
Lu Li noticed that the book under his arm had been changed from "Introduction to Occultism" to "The Origin of Cursed Titles". In his other hand, he was holding an hourglass filled with fluorescent gravel.
"Professor Hagrid, why don't we continue the introduction to occult science?"
A student with keen attention asked curiously, attracting more curious eyes.
Except for students who are about to complete their school year, other students have not yet been exposed to this knowledge.
"Yes." Professor Hagrid put down the hourglass and book and looked up at the lecture theater: "This knowledge is relatively dangerous. If you feel uncomfortable, please raise your hands in time."
Under the watchful eyes of all the junior students, Professor Hagrid placed the hourglass on the table, and no sand leaked out.
