Chapter 2522 The Inherited Academy
"In fact, we don't need to exaggerate the power of the 'Moon Bay Hero'. No matter how strong he is, what can he do? If the three unexpected guests hadn't really accepted the invitation this time, the strongest ring warlock wouldn't be able to withstand the blow of the gods."
Shad said while leaning against the counter. Old John nodded in agreement, and saw that Shad didn't want to talk about the chosen one:
"That's why it is necessary to invite those guests. This era is becoming more and more chaotic, so most people can understand or be forced to understand his use of these extraordinary means. Detective, if you know that hero, please congratulate him on my behalf. We can't live without him in this era."
"I will."
Shad pointed to the small box on the counter:
"Then how about the cost of these intelligence deducting the cost of this relic?"
"Of course, or I will compensate you with an extra sum of money?"
"Not this time."
Shad De put the box into his pocket:
"But Father John, if you feel you owe me, don't forget to help me keep an eye out for relics and special coins that increase luck. Oh, you can also help me find out if there are any abnormal events about 'time' that are happening frequently recently."
The old man behind the counter blinked:
"Time? You mean detective, are you sure you are in such a hurry?"
"After all, time won't stop for me."
"I understand, but at least there is no such news so far. If the hero needs help, the hermitage can provide a full range of services. But are you sure it's time?"
"It was revealed by the distinguished guest who just left."
"Is that so? It must be time. If it's time, it's possible that something has happened, but we can't detect it."
Things that cannot be detected should be treated as non-existent, otherwise it will cause trouble for yourself. [Guiding Light Hermitage] will help Shade find relevant clues next, but Shade instinctively feels that they may take some time to get results.
Then Shade went straight back home, and as expected, Miss Danister had sent a reply through the manuscript paper.
She also knew that Shade might not be available at all times, so they agreed to meet again after lunch.
Therefore, when Shade's projection appeared in the library of St. Byrons, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
The students who helped to arrange the ceremony left quietly. Shade was about to say hello to Miss Danister, but he looked around in surprise:
"Did the college library renovate during the summer vacation? It's so beautiful here~"
The original library floor was so clean that it could almost reflect light. The bookshelves around the open space under the planetarium were also neatly arranged. At first glance, there was a learning atmosphere, and it was the kind of classical style library layout.
But what Shade saw this time was that the slowly rotating planetarium above his head seemed to have been re-polished. The original normal slate floor was replaced with tiles, and each tile was translucent, and you could see the strange scene of the sea of stars under the tiles.
This resulted in the entire library now being like being in a silver-purple night sky, but the light did not affect reading.
The bookshelves around did not change much, but above the bookshelves were neatly arranged thick yellow candles. Shade's weakened sense of smell in the projection state smelled a kind of beeswax in the air, which was the smell of the expensive soothing candles burning.
Looking into the distance, the tables, ancient golems, modern and contemporary artworks, stargazing equipment, etc. in the library have been refurbished, and the slightly curved ceiling above the library was originally a huge star map. Now the star map is still there, but there are more subtle stars than before.
The silver-blue light flickered in the star map at the frequency of breathing, and looking up was even more shocking than looking at the real starry sky.
As for the furniture in the open space used as an office by Miss Danister, of course, they have also changed. Although it is still a sofa set with a low coffee table, the original red fabric sofa has become a large solid wood antique sofa.
The lines of the armrests are elegant and the carvings are exquisite. The back of the sofa is very high, the curve is like an arch bridge, and it has oval and diamond inlays, dotted with red and yellow gems.
The sofa's seat and backrest were covered with silk, and the brand new cushions were painted with various famous buildings of St. Byron.
"Decoration? This is of course to welcome the arrival of the two principals."
While Shade was looking around, Miss Danister, holding a porcelain teacup, said:
"And not only the library, but every corner of the college has been decorated. You have bought us enough time to decorate these to welcome the two principals, but if there were two more days, you would probably see it more gorgeous now."
She patted the soft sofa gently:
"It was about this time yesterday, and Principal Filianna sat in this position and talked to us about the construction of the library. I still can't believe it when I think about it now."
"It must have been very lively yesterday?"
"Very lively, I can't remember the last time the college was so lively."
She looked quite honored:
"We didn't let too many people know about the arrival of the two principals, but at least the dean of each college was present. Although the selection of student representatives was a bit troublesome, Miss Sienord performed well.
Principal Feliana and Principal Drago are really approachable, you know? Principal Feliana said personally that we ran the school very well, even surpassing that of Professor Pigman, the principal of St. Byrons in their time. At that time, his eyes were red. "
Although Shade was curious about how Miss Denist was behaving at that time, he did not ask:
"Miss Feliana and Fiona have really good personalities. Fiona even makes breakfast for us every morning these days."
He also briefly described what the two ladies had been doing at his place these days. Of course, I didn’t mention the little girl with the big tail doing something every night.
However, Shade mentioned that their expenses were actually not much, but Miss Denister did not let Shade re-hand over the remaining 10,000 gold pounds:
"One day is not enough to visit every corner of St. Byrons today, but the roads that we walked with the founders of the college are enough for our generation to remember. Regarding topics such as the construction of the college, you probably Not very interested, let’s talk about something else——
The principals did not mention anything about the Fifth Era during their visit, but Principal Feliana personally admitted the relationship between the ‘God Caller’ and her in front of us. "
Xia De opened his mouth, feeling very moved, but his tone was calm:
"She wants you to take care of the Godcaller, right?"
"Well, you probably misunderstood. Principal Feliana didn't say that the Godcaller was her apprentice. She said that you were hers."
The red-haired sorceress took a deep breath and didn't even notice that she forgot to replace "you" with "godcaller". It was obvious that she was under a lot of pressure to say this:
"She said you were her lover."
"Um?"
"Don't pretend that you are innocent, Shade. I don't think a respected lady like Principal Myrna Feliana would joke about such a thing."
The red-haired sorceress looked at him inquiringly:
"So you never told me the truth? Shade, are you really her lover?"
"She" laughed in her ear, as if she wanted to see how Shade would respond, and Shade explained:
"I am Teacher Feliana's apprentice. As for my lover, Miss Danist, do you think it is better for me to be her apprentice, or my so-called lover?"
Asking questions while retreating made the red-haired sorceress speechless for a moment. This was Shade's unique conversational skill.
She was unwilling to answer the question directly, because no matter how she answered it, it would look strange, so she simply said something else:
"Shad, you really surprised me. Whether it's an apprentice or a lover, Miss Feliana and Principal Drago said that they would not interfere with the St. Byrons Comprehensive College of our time, let alone Let us help the Godcaller."
He raised his eyebrows as he spoke:
"But they also said that a lot of things happened in the early days of St. Byrons. Because of all the stories of the previous era, in short, the 'Godcaller' actually also has a part of the ownership of St. Byrons, and it cannot be diluted. of ownership.
The principal, Professor Pigman, confirmed through the principal's authority that this was indeed true. So although it is ownership and not management rights, and you cannot directly influence the academy's decision-making, 53% of the land and property in Academy City under our feet does belong to you.
Guess how much these assets would be worth if converted into gold pounds? "
the sorceress asked with a smile.
"Well that's not important."
Shade did not waste time guessing how big a piece of property this was. The source of this ownership should be that he and Fiona worked together to obtain this piece of land in the far north:
"I don't understand. Since the principal, Professor Pigman, can inquire about the ownership of the college, why did he not find out about it until now?"
"Because even the principal and librarian with the highest management authority cannot know all the secrets of this ancient college. Probably only Principal Myrna Feliana who established this place is the real owner and owner of St. Byrons. managers.
At present, the authority of the past presidents is limited to checking whether someone has ownership and management rights of the college. It is not possible to directly check who holds all the ownership and management rights. "
Miss Denister gave Shade a few seconds to think about what she had said:
"In fact, even now, the president can only determine the ownership of 97% of the college management rights and 24% of the college ownership. Of course, the latter does not include your 53%. There were detailed details about these two parts of power in the early days of the college's establishment. Inheritance and inheritance regulations, so the temporarily unknown part must be inherited by someone, just like you.”
"Isn't it strange? The ownership of most of the management rights and ownership of the college is still unknown. Under such circumstances, the college can continue to operate normally?"
Shade asked.
