The farce in the room didn't last long. Half an hour later, Bai Xiangtian came to inform us that it was time for dinner. Surprisingly, Shima Senbon was also accompanying us. It seems that the previous healing was very effective, as she has already recovered, just as expected. Even her scars have healed. It seems that the accidentally produced potion is very useful, and mass production should not be a problem.

"Um..."

While still thinking about contacting Lanya to increase production, I heard someone calling me. When I turned around, it was Shima Senbon.

"Um...thank you for before."

"What's wrong?"

"It's just...even though I started the fight recklessly, in the end, you were the one who healed me and used the scarless medicine...so, thank you."

"Oh, that...as long as you're okay, there's no need to worry about it."

As I said that, I looked at Aliyah and noticed she was glancing in our direction.

"No, really, thank you very much. And I heard that my brother misunderstood you afterwards, so...uh..."

"There's no need to worry. It's normal for a brother to protect his sister..."

"No! Oyado will protect her brother!"

Suddenly, Oyado jumped in and said.

Have you been eavesdropping all this time?

"Alright, let's go. Aren't we going to have dinner?"

"Okay, let's go, Bai."

Haidao Qianben said so.

However...she was not referring to Bai Yueguang, but Bai Xiangtian...

All of us looked at Bai Yueguang with sad eyes, and he himself was leaning against the wall with black lines on his forehead, staring at the sky.

Only Kuroko, Bai Xiangtian, and Haidao Qianben were left, looking at us with puzzled expressions.

-----------------------------------------------------------

And so, our group walked towards the designated restaurant in full force.

After all, this is a city built around the academy, with fewer mercenaries and merchants. So for a group like us, we already counted as a large group.

But it's precisely because of this that the so-called auction is being held here, right?

Who would have expected that an underground auction would be taking place in the city around the academy? And even if you were transporting some strange things, you could explain it as a research necessity for the academy. Would anyone really come to a school and ask what they are researching?

Of course not.

"By the way, will Mr. Haoran and Miss Duomu Yan be coming?"

As we walked, I asked the two who were leading the way.

"Of course they will come, and our Dean too. This morning, he had something to do and couldn't come in person. He even asked me to apologize to you just now."

Haidao Qianben turned around and said.

Is that so? We were fighting fiercely at your academy, after all.

"That means your Dean must be a very strong person, right?"

"Yes, he's already in the Great Vehicle Realm and is just waiting to cross the tribulation."

...

Huh? What's that?

I have no idea about cultivation, how would I know?

I silently looked at Taishi Xi, who was behind me, wondering if he heard what Haidao Qianben just said as his eyes glanced over.

"That must have been hundreds of years ago, right? I wonder what your dean specializes in?" Taishi Xi suddenly asked.

"Well, our dean specializes in 'alchemy'. Although it's called alchemy, they can actually create anything," I replied.

"I see, that's perfect. We can complement each other and not become enemies of each other," Taishi Xi muttered to himself, then looked up at the sky.

Can you please stop talking about these strange prophecies? Is there a guide for this world? Can you explain what you're actually talking about? But I feel like asking that would be embarrassing, so I decided to keep my mouth shut.

"Murder!!"

And then, without any warning, we suddenly heard someone shouting next to us!

Immediately after, a nearby shop exploded, and the flames shot up into the night sky.

What's happening?

Although I don't know what's going on, those flames shooting up definitely don't look like flames from an explosion. It seems like someone is using fire magic or something.

Because... explosions don't create flames! Do you think it's a Molotov cocktail or something?

"Arcane·Ice Palace!"

Seeing the flames heading towards bystanders, I quickly cast an ice magic spell, covering the entire shop with ice!

"You! Get away from there!" I shouted at the stunned bystanders.

"Thank you very much!" they immediately ran away to the side.

"Hey! By covering up the shop like that, what about the people inside?" Bai Xiangtian yelled at me.

"They're already dead! It's not a normal explosion and fire! Someone released a skill!" I explained.

Just as I finished speaking, my ice wall was suddenly struck from the inside, and a red figure shattered my ice barrier and dashed out!

Damn, is this guy the Fire Mage?

His entire body is engulfed in flames, even his clothes are burning, yet there are no signs of damage.

"Oh, there's actually an Ice Mage. But too bad, you're not a Water Mage. Hahaha!" the enemy laughed, pointing towards the sky, and a flaming giant fell from above with a loud crash!

Damn, that skill looks amazing! I want to learn it too!

But right now, I can't see any information about this guy's name, title, or level. I can't even judge his level.

Why?

Because for me, this guy has a red name, and the flames burning on him completely cover his name...

Hey, hey, hey! Is this a system bug? At least highlight his name for me, or put a skull on the boss's head if it's dangerous!

"Back off!!!" Bai Xiangtian shouted.

"This guy is an Onmyoji! It's a summoning technique!" he added.

"Huh?"

An Onmyoji?

Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the giant he summoned had a charm affixed to its head.

Yin and yang technique?

But just now, the fire magic I saw had a magic circle...

So, is this a Fire Mage with the auxiliary occupation of Onmyoji?

I looked at everyone behind me, who were all interestedly watching this sudden intruder.

"What should I say in a situation like this?" I said, while putting on my magic armband.

"Are we starting? Let's go, everyone!"

Bai Yueguang chuckled as he gripped his own sword hilt.

"No, it should be... monster slaying! Whoever gets there first gets the loot!"

Aliyah burst into flames, transforming into a fiery werewolf, and dashed out!

And behind her was Taishi Xi, silently charging forward with his spear!

Come on, can't you guys be more serious at a time like this!"
