Ch 8: The Strong Never Complain About Their Circumstances

However, Jian Ni and Lan Bao did not appear in the classroom from morning class to the first class the next day.

“They started skipping class not long after school started, so brave!”

Playing with Ya Ya, who hadn’t woken up yet, Ya Ya yawned widely. Perhaps because this class was Magical Physics, even though she hadn’t seen the teacher yet, her physiological reaction had already begun to make her sleepy.

Rui Bu Si was struggling to look at the book needed for Magical Physics.

It was equivalent to only knowing a few English words and then directly starting to do a level four reading comprehension. She awkwardly recognized the meaning of a few words, but when put together, she found they were completely incomprehensible.

…Yes, she hadn’t seen Jian Ni and Lan Bao today.

“What skipping class? Jian Ni is just too embarrassed to come to class, okay?” Crossing half the classroom, Ba Bi put down the mirror, revealing a disgusted expression after hearing their conversation.

“He set fire to the Potionology classroom, causing Rui Rui to be injured, and he framed the speechless Li Ka for the arson. How could he dare to come to class?”

“That’s too much! When he burned down the classroom, why didn’t he pay attention to whether there were any classmates inside?”

The little fence-sitter was once again blown to the other side by the wind. Ba Bi only glanced at Ya Ya, turned her head, and resumed looking in the mirror.

She didn’t pay any attention to Ya Ya’s intentions. It seemed that her way of interacting with other classmates had always been like this. Ya Ya played with the half-asleep Ya Ya, and she also had no intention of chatting with anyone.

The speechless Li Ka… Rui Bu Si put the book on top of her head, closed her eyes, and tried to use this mystical method to allow knowledge to seep into her brain.

Jian Ni said yesterday that as long as Rui Rui woke up, he would be cleared of suspicion. In this situation, he should have been there at the time, and Rui Rui might have seen him.

Planting false evidence and then using students’ sense of justice… such an old trick.

The book on her head was about to slip off. Rui Bu Si quickly reached out to support it. Turning her head, she saw Mi Ya Xing next to her, seemingly lost in thought.

An extremely distinctive clearing-of-the-throat sound echoed from the classroom doorway, interrupting all ongoing activities.

The classmates quickly returned to their seats, and the entire classroom instantly fell silent.

Putting her book on the desk and raising her head, Rui Bu Si saw a short, middle-aged man with a considerable beer belly walking into the classroom with his hands behind his back.

His eyes were small, but they were extremely bright, like two small light bulbs. As his gaze swept across the classroom, combined with his stern, expressionless face, the students all lowered their heads wherever his eyes fell.

More eye-catching than his slightly exaggerated beer belly was his thick, dark, and luxuriant hair. It was black and shiny, making him look exceptionally young among the teachers with thinning hair.

Books are the beginning of dreams.

No matter how frightening the teacher looked or how passionately he lectured, less than ten minutes into the class, Rui Bu Si watched in amazement as the students in front demonstrated various sleeping positions.

Besides the teacher on the podium, only the occasional sound of a book being unconsciously knocked to the floor could be heard. The sleeping students would wake up, only to fall back asleep again shortly after.

Looking blankly ahead, in her mind, the System was playing the Great Compassion Mantra, which was mixed with the ups and downs of the lecture, creating a kind of disregard for human life aesthetic.

Strong people never complain about their environment. In this situation, her consciousness was still gradually becoming hazy in an irreversible trend.

As she was about to close her eyes in a daze, the teacher’s voice and the Great Compassion Mantra stopped abruptly. In the moment of silence, her head buzzed.

She vaguely heard the Great Compassion Mantra and the indistinct ups and downs of the lecture.

It’s a bit unusual…

But it’s easier to sleep when it’s quiet.

At the moment she was about to fall asleep, she felt a pain in her leg from something hitting it. Opening her eyes and looking down, she saw a Magic Cube by her feet.

Her first reaction wasn’t to immediately look in the direction the object came from, but she seemed to sense something and looked towards the window—

An entire face was pressed against it, rather creepy.

Rui Bu Si kicked the chair in front of Ya Ya. The person who was nodding off immediately sat up straight, looked up, secretly peeked towards the window, then quickly straightened her head as if she had seen a ghost.

If it were really just an evil spirit, Ya Ya probably wouldn’t have reacted so strongly.

As everyone knows, there are only two things that will cling to windows in Meng Academy:

One is a gecko; the other is the Dean of Students.

And there are currently no students from the Animal Department who are geckos on campus.

The consecutive commotion woke up some students, and some students woke up most of the class. As for those who couldn’t be woken up—

“The few of you, clean the school’s small garden for a week, plus a one-thousand-word self-criticism. The self-criticism is due tomorrow; you can’t write it in class.”

“Yes, sir~”

The few students who were named answered weakly.

Wow, a thousand words!

With her current knowledge reserves, making her write a thousand words was no different from killing her!

Pa Hua Luo Di, who had arrived aggressively, left aggressively. Rui Bu Si picked up the Magic Cube by her feet, wiped it, and devoutly returned it to Mi Ya Xing.

Thank you, this kind classmate who possesses similar magical abilities to her former colleague.

【The learning process is a process of continuous improvement. In this process, you need to constantly put in effort and perseverance. Laziness will only cause you to miss opportunities for growth and miss the chance to enjoy the fun of learning.

Please take your learning attitude seriously, Host! Otherwise, a large amount of Merit will be deducted.】

She glanced at the textbook on the desk… She couldn’t understand anything. It’s fine to miss this opportunity for growth, and it’s fine to not have this opportunity for enjoyment.

—But she still needs that Merit.

“I remember the task you issued was to save Naiya.”

【Poor academic performance will lead to expulsion. Studying hard is your duty in the process of completing the task.】

…Duty? Studying hard has no reward, but studying poorly has punishment, right?

Stingy and deceitful, she despises it! She despises it mentally!

She turned around and picked up the problem, referring to the textbook, trying to analyze the formula that should be used here. After a while, she understood one thing—today’s weather is perfect for sleeping.

In the Potionology practical class, Teacher Qian Jin apologized to everyone and said that the Potionology classroom caught fire because he forgot he was boiling coffee in the classroom.

Jian Ni and Lan Bao, who had been missing all morning, reappeared.

“You weren’t in the classroom this morning. Were you sleeping in the dormitory?”

Putting down the potion in her hand, Rui Bu Si turned her head and saw Ya Ya looking completely unaware. No, based on their short time together, her roommate was really a complete little idiot. Ya Ya probably didn’t know anything.

Walking out from the encirclement of apologizing classmates, Jian Ni, in a good mood, rubbed Ya Ya’s head twice. Just as he was about to answer Ya Ya’s question, he cried out and covered his finger.

—It was just a little red, but the bite was painful.

After analyzing it for a moment, well, Jian Ni and Lan Bao didn’t seem to be much smarter. Three idiots out of four people. Rui Bu Si suddenly felt a strange sense of responsibility fall upon her shoulders.

“No, it’s because we were very angry about being wrongly accused. I was planning to leave Meng Academy with Lan Bao and return to the human world, but Teacher Qian Jin stopped us.”
