Chapter 145

Sylas nodded, "Yes, they are a bit too brief."

"Sylas, everyone’s little fairy, can you use your magic wand… to click on these answers and show their process?"

Sylas was amused by her words, "Jane, don’t call me that, it’s too strange. I’ll explain after I finish."

The slim girl (who had been interviewed by Dean Eilan in the disrupted classroom in Sauran) said hopefully, "When will you be able to finish writing?"

Sylas thought for a moment and smiled at her, "On Revealing Day, after I finish writing, I will leave a message on the public bulletin board."

"That’s great, you’re a little fairy who can make wishes come true!"

"Please, don’t call me that!"

No one really paid attention to her protest. Xerath used to think she matched the mage’s classical beauty standards – black hair, green eyes, a calm and gentle demeanor. It perfectly fit the mage’s imagination of a Gallician maiden (probably due to admiration for the ancient magic ancestors). Almost no mage could resist the charm of such a face, let alone this group of children who had been deeply indoctrinated by magical education.

And she excelled in her studies, loved learning, and was polite to everyone. She was like a female mage from an old painting, so much so that she kept receiving love letters while she was diligently working on her review questions.

Luna sorted the love letters while saying, "Since B Truce is so amazing, there might be a ‘B Truce treasure’ in the school."

"A ‘B Truce treasure’?" Sylas absentmindedly said.

"Well, since B Truce is the author of popular study guides, she must have written more than just these two, right?"

"She’s quite a talented female mage. I heard her original dream was to open a tutoring school in her hometown. If you say so… there might actually be one, but what inspired her to write this book? This one is already the only copy. That means it’s not popular and didn’t make much money."

"Maybe it’s just a summary of all her hard work, let’s go to the library and explore more next semester if we have time."

"There’s also a flea market. During the preparatory course, I found a summary of water elemental syntax there, which helped Swis earn an extra fifty points. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to pass the Star Song Castle."

"B Truce is amazing! I wish I could find her right now and treat her as a exam deity. Maybe worship her a little, to bless us through every exam!" Luna excitedly slapped the table.

Sylas burst into laughter.

Her exercise book was completed the day before the Revealing Day, so there was still some time for checking. During the check, Luna couldn’t wait to ask questions and finally grabbed her sleeve, acting spoiled, saying, "Sylas, come and take spatial magic as an elective. I really don’t know who else to ask these questions."

"Huh?" Sylas frowned, seemingly not liking the suggestion very much.

"Spatial magic is great! Look! Look, this course offers eight credits!!!" She pointed at the course selection form.

"What… is it? Teleportation circle design? Such high credits? Are there many hours for the class?" Sylas took the course catalog and examined it carefully. "Hmm… it offers good value for money, but it conflicts with classical philosophy."

"No worries, no worries. Teleportation circle design requires you to design a teleportation circle, draw it, and write down the derivation process within, let’s say, a month. You don’t have to sit in the classroom. And the most amazing thing is, it doesn’t require grades from spatial syntax theory class! Isn’t it great? You can draw during your free time, you’ll definitely be able to do it. Eight credits! Three assignments in one semester, one assignment for one and a half months. No need for exams, no need for regular grades, just need to be present during the evaluation of the assignments. The average score of the assignments will be your exam grade."

Sylas hesitated obviously. Luna sneakily approached and said, "With eight credits, no need for exams, your final exams will be much easier! You will have more time to…"

Sylas nodded seriously, "Hmm, makes sense. I can try other subjects to see if I can get a perfect score." She added earnestly, looking up, "It feels different from the advanced entrance exams, like getting a perfect score is easier."

Luna frowned and squinted her eyes as she looked at this strange little fairy.

On Revealing Day, most students went out to have fun, even though exams were coming up. The Star Song Castle Student Union (a purely grassroots but long-standing organization, where many members’ parents were even former members of this union) organized a grand feast.

Almost all the female students in Snowfall Yard didn’t have time to prepare for the feast, because Sylas planned to go through this exercise book today. They crowded in the common lounge, where there was a floating blackboard in front. Under Sylas’s guidance, the chalk flew on its own and wrote lines of words on the blackboard. The bustling scene even alarmed the dormitory administrator.

Inspector Dean Eilan appeared silently in the nearby hallway at some point and expressed surprise at Sylas’s behavior.

The students who were busy taking notes may not have been aware of this, but it was not easy to control several magic chalks like controlling brooms. It was impossible for someone who couldn’t handle a broom to write with magic chalk, a magical creature that grows in chalk.

"…This problem seems like a syntax problem, but if you abstract this sentence into a chart problem, you will find that it is actually a non-linear relationship of the siphon phenomenon, the Galen parabola. Using trigonometric transformation, it can be solved. Next question."

"Wait a moment!" someone raised their hand below, "Why do we have to use trigonometric transformation after the Galen parabola?"

Sylas, when asked, seemed confident. "After the Galen parabola, use the trigonometric transformation. Remember this sentence. There’s no time to explain this problem now, you can ask the teacher later. Next question…"

The administrator quietly approached Dean Eilan and said, "Look, look, although we have students like this almost every year, this one is really good."

Eilan smiled and replied, "Yes, very impressive. She is the top student of this class."

"Oh, what’s her background? I haven’t heard of the surname Hevel before."

"Oh, she’s a relative of the Maryland family. Didn’t you see her parents?"

The dormitory administrator had the special ability to remember faces, so she thought for a moment and said, "I actually don’t have much impression of her. She came with a young magician, maybe she’s the secretary or something from the Stellar family. She had a hat on, so I didn’t see her face clearly. Hey, could she be an adopted daughter of the Stellar family?"

Eilan nodded noncommittally. An archmage from the Stellar family had recently become less prominent, but rumors, both true and false, had already spread throughout the entire school due to working with the daughter-in-law of the Stellar family for many years. The eldest son refused to have children, and the youngest daughter had a serious dispute with the family over her marriage and still hadn’t returned home. Even if they suddenly had an adopted daughter, it seemed quite reasonable.

"This sentence sounds familiar…"

"Which sentence are you referring to?"

Eilan smiled and shook her head, indicating that it was nothing, but someone had already said this sentence almost twenty years ago, before the non-linear relationship of the siphoning phenomenon had been proven.

"Galen’s parabola is followed by a trigonometric transformation." Because the trigonometric transformation represents the only correct mapping of Galen’s parabola in the mortal realm and serves as the basis for quantifying the intensity of the siphoning.

Xerath…

"That carefree attitude is quite like the youngest daughter of the Stellar family." Eilan suddenly pointed eagerly at Sylas.

The dormitory administrator said, "Now that you mention it, it does make sense… Look at my age, I can hardly remember her face anymore."

"It’s been twenty years, it’s normal to forget." Eilan smiled and walked away, leaving behind a mysterious figure.

Several days later, during the three-hour exam on the Quaternary Element Theory, most students at Snowfall Yard felt good, contrasting sharply with the others who were in distress.

But this feeling of being good didn’t last a day before it dissipated. After the last World History class, Reed Sauran took over an empty class, spent about half the time describing how he passionately sacrificed his rest time to conduct pre-exam review and highlight key points for everyone, and cunningly said that this book was the key to our exam. Before the students could react, he announced the end of the class and left early, leaving everyone wailing in sorrow.

Swis calmly analyzed, "I think he’s targeting our class, just to get back at us for who knows how many times we hit him before."

"Since that’s the case," Luna replied immediately, "does that mean he might have given the other classes the exam scope?"

Caroline also agreed, saying, "That’s very likely."

"Then let’s go ask the other classes."

Strangely, the other classes were the same. Sauran didn’t reveal the exam scope to anyone.

"What’s he so tired from? He only teaches eight classes a week! Each class is only four hourglasses long! And the content of each class is the same!" Caroline complained.

Compared to this, Swis brought more "exciting" news, "Someone has already gone home, not wanting to waste time on him."

"That’s so selfish."

"It’s very selfish… but world history is a required subject, if we fail, we have to keep studying."

"Or we can come back next semester for a makeup exam?" Luna said excitedly, "Just thinking about it, I don’t want to take the test anymore. I want to go home right away."

Caroline said, "Stay calm. Do you want to bear the pressure of ‘school starting soon’ and the pressure of ‘having to make up exams’ at the same time? Do you still want to bring home world history?"

Swis interrupted and said, "I think she was going to bring it anyway."

This is a fact, Luna carries a world history book with her every day, not knowing what is interesting about it. And it’s very mysterious, she never lets anyone else see it.

Caroline continued to convince her, "Although he has delayed us for such a long time, this may not be a bad thing. Do you still remember that we have to form a knight group? Why not take this opportunity to connect with our comrades?"

Speaking of this, Luna became enthusiastic again.
