Chapter 45: I Purify Myself
Interlude: Elus’s Thoughts
……
……
Hmph, damn it!
Should I say that even the wise make mistakes?
I actually forgot such an important matter…
At that time, I did indeed come to the Ancient Academy and borrowed the power of a relic.
Because as a princess, my image represented the Snow Kingdom, so even when facing people I disliked, I couldn’t show any disgust and could only refuse gently.
But it was this gentleness that they misunderstood.
Charles, in order to pursue me, completely abandoned his childhood sweetheart.
Hmph…
Since that’s the case, then don’t blame me for using my trump card, right?
Using the power of the magic mirror, I detected the power of two people and scared them away by pretending to be a ghost.
Heh heh~
Letting you bother me.
However, it seems that those two people ended up coming together because of this chance and achieved their happy ending?
However, this matter has nothing to do with me anymore!
Because I was really busy at that time, I still had to handle the suspension procedures and rush back to the Snow Kingdom.
Sigh, speaking of which…
Unconsciously, 100 years have passed?
And it’s so unfortunate, but at this very time, that idiot maid Lonis found out!
The Dean is also very worried about my situation and seems to be going to pray for me.
Hmph…
Although it’s not that I can’t understand,
Praying for me is really too ridiculous!
I’m clearly still alive, why do I need this kind of prayer ceremony?
In the end, it’s all Lonis’s fault?
If she hadn’t tied me up last night, I wouldn’t have scared Su Ling Zhou to protect her… and it ended up becoming this situation, with my black history being dug up.
So,
Lonis, you just wait for me!
Don’t think you’re safe by staying by the Dean’s side,
When the opportunity arises, I will definitely bully you fiercely, whip you, torment you into a stuffed ball, and I won’t stop!
Hmph, I really want to see…
How cute you will look when you cry and beg for mercy?

……
……
Walking side by side with Elus, Lonis felt a chill that had completely spread throughout her body.
Just like in the snowy mountain cave before, Lonis knew that Elus had already developed a murderous intent towards her… If Dean Emerald Glaze wasn’t by her side, this black-haired girl would probably have charged forward immediately.
At that time, not only her chastity would be lost, but her life might also be lost.
She would definitely be pinned down by Elus on the bed and be cruelly bullied!!
……
“A weak maid dares to peek into her master’s past?”
“No… that’s not true…”
“See if I don’t beat you to physical amnesia. Hmm… or, I could sew your mouth shut so you can never speak again~~~~”
“Wuwu, wuwuwu!”
……
Once I leave Dean Emerald Glaze, I’ll be completely finished!
(What should I do, what should I do now, what should I say?)
Lonis was extremely nervous. Although the small toy on her body hadn’t been activated, Lonis’s legs felt very weak, as if she would sit on the ground at any moment.
Out of options, Lonis could only seek help from the Dean…
“D-Dean! What should we do to resolve Miss Vengeful Spirit’s resentment?”
“Well… the best way is to buy some gifts.”
“Gifts?”
“Yes, it should be here.”
At a cozy dessert shop, Emerald Glaze stopped.
……
……
“Miss shop assistant, please give me 10 jin of cookies… Since they are for someone else, please package them beautifully.”
“Okay.”
“Please also prepare one jin each of small cakes, small biscuits, and small potato chips.”
……
Dean Emerald Glaze’s appearance was actually very young. From her appearance, one couldn’t tell she was a dean; she looked more like a pure female student.
At this moment, this blonde girl handed the gifts she was holding to Lonis and Elus respectively: “Next, could I ask the two students to join me in a blessing ceremony for Lunis’s vengeful spirit?”
“Blessing ceremony…”
“Yes, because Lunis had very few friends when she was alive, I want Lonis and Elus to play her friends this time and help her alleviate her resentment. Hmm, speaking of which, her name is very similar to Lonis’s, you must have a great affinity.”
The rain began to fall quietly.
Even though it wasn’t heavy, the feeling of it knocking on the skin was almost imperceptible. If one didn’t pay attention, it would be difficult to notice.
However, the gloomy clouds covered the sky, and the sun was nowhere to be seen. This scene had a certain flavor of “Clear and Bright Festival rain drizzles, travelers on the road sigh with grief.”
However, Elus, as a “vengeful spirit” to be purified, didn’t think so.
On the way forward, although the black-haired girl didn’t explicitly object, she “tentatively” asked: “Teacher Emerald Glaze, I think we might not need this method to exorcise spirits, right?”
“Student Elus, do you have any ideas?”
“Wouldn’t it be enough to just put up a cross and send her off? Anyway, she’s been dead for so long, she should have disappeared into the river of history long ago.”
“This method might be feasible, but it’s a bit too violent?”
Faced with Elus’s suggestion, Dean Emerald Glaze smiled slightly and comforted her: “When C. Academy was founded, our policy was to face every student with an inclusive attitude. We advocate that all teachers and students are one family, helping and supporting each other.”
“Uh…”
“And now, that silver-haired girl named Lunis is still considered a member of our school.”
“Huh?!”
Hearing this, Lonis gasped… Did Emerald Glaze mean that she had discovered Elus’s identity?
However, the Dean just looked at the gloomy clouds in the sky and said indifferently: “From then until today, about a hundred years have passed, right? And in these hundred years, hundreds of batches of students have graduated.”
“!”
“Lunis must have felt very uncomfortable watching all of this… Although I can’t issue her a graduation certificate, I hope she won’t be alone.”
……
……
The journey reached its end.
And towering before the three of them was the villa on the mountaintop.
A gentle breeze blew, and the meadow swayed with waves of hope. The pitter-patter of raindrops slid down the cobblestones, gathering into clear streams.
Dean Emerald Glaze didn’t say much, she just carefully protected the cookies and other sweets and walked towards the villa entrance with the two of them.
“Dean, you’re here.”
Before they could reach it, the villa door was pushed open, and Mi Xue Zhou came out and reported very seriously: “Reporting to Dean Emerald Glaze, today… I did not detect anything abnormal.”
“Mm, it will probably appear at night. Everyone, get ready, we are going to conduct the blessing ceremony.”
“Wait a moment, Dean. Why is student Mi Xue Zhou also here?”
Elus was startled, completely not expecting Mi Xue Zhou’s arrival.
“Elus, Mi Xue Zhou was the first to discover the scene. She has been staying here since last night.”
“Uh?”
“That’s right, junior Elus. During the blessing ceremony we are about to conduct, there might be some risks. You and Lonis should not run around, try to stay in the center of the hall, and I will protect you.”
The pink-haired girl nodded and said so.
