Chapter 419: If He Dares to Fool Around, I’ll Beat Him Up
At the Royal Magic Academy.
In the large lecture hall.
Mary Fate sat idly at her desk, resting her chin on her hand.
She sighed and complained, “It’s been so boring lately. We just keep going through the same courses. It’s not as interesting as the practical combat classes.”
It had been several months since she last attended a practical combat class.
There hadn’t been any combat instructors to replace Luo Sheng since he left.
“Yeah, I haven’t had a serious fight in a long time. I feel like I’m regressing,” Acoley said, mirroring her posture with her chin resting on her hand, equally bored.
Even though it was currently Mr. Hunter’s class.
They still couldn’t muster any interest.
It wasn’t just Acoley and Mary Fate who felt this way; the other students were even worse. It seemed like going to school had lost some of its joy.
“When do you think Luo Sheng will come back? He hasn’t forgotten about us while living it up in some brothel, has he? I heard my father say that when men have money, they stay out all night,” Mary Fate suddenly said.
Acoley’s heart tightened when she heard this.
What if Luo Sheng was actually doing what she said?
But she quickly denied it, “No way, I’ve known him for so long. He’s not that kind of person.”
“They say you can’t judge a book by its cover. Even knowing someone for a long time doesn’t necessarily mean you know their true character.”
“I believe he wouldn’t do that.”
“You trust him too much.”
“Aren’t you the same? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have fallen for him,” Acoley said, squinting at her.
Mary Fate was left speechless by her retort.
After a moment of stunned silence, she nodded reluctantly, “Fine, you have a point. Who would have thought we’d both fall for someone we shouldn’t?”
Then she gritted her teeth and continued, “Hmph! If I find out he’s been fooling around, I’ll definitely give him a good beating. I’ll teach him the price of messing around!”
Mary Fate clenched her fist as she spoke.
Looking quite fierce.
Just then.
Mary Fate felt someone hit her hard on the head.
“Ow!” She first covered her head, then turned around angrily, “Who hit me?”
“Who else could hit you?”
A very abrupt voice came from beside her, sounding quite pleasant.
Luo Sheng had appeared beside them at some point, as silent and unnoticed as a ghost.
“Luo Sheng! You’re back!” Acoley exclaimed with delight. It had been a long time since she’d seen Luo Sheng.
“Mm, I just got back,” Luo Sheng said with a smile.
He gently patted Acoley’s head, a gesture like a greeting.
Acoley really enjoyed this pat.
This was her boyfriend, and her future husband.
Luo Sheng asked, “Did you miss me these past few days?”
“Yes, I missed you very much,” Acoley said, her eyes slightly red. “I thought you might never come back.”
“Haha, you missed me a lot, but some people were thinking of beating me up,” Luo Sheng said, turning his head towards Mary Fate.
He looked at her with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Mary Fate immediately felt uncomfortable under his gaze and laughed awkwardly, “I was just joking. It’s your fault for being gone so long. Any normal woman would suspect you might be fooling around outside.”
“Yeah, I was fooling around outside. Come and hit me,” Luo Sheng said with a hint of provocation.
“You! You actually dare to fool around.” Mary Fate cursed angrily, about to clench her fist to beat him up.
But she saw that Luo Sheng’s eyes seemed to be saying, ‘If you dare to hit me, be careful. I might not be nice to you.’
Mary Fate immediately backed down. Her clenched fist relaxed, and she lost her previous confidence, leaving only gentleness, “You bad man, how could you do this? Can you just abandon us to fool around?”
Luo Sheng was speechless and flicked her forehead with his finger.
“Ow~”
Mary Fate covered her forehead again.
Then she angrily said, “Why did you flick my forehead? It hurts! Don’t you know it’ll stunt my growth?”
Acoley, standing to the side, covered her mouth and laughed, “…Luo Sheng was tricking you, and you actually believed him.”
“Why do you trust him so much?”
“Why shouldn’t I trust him?”
“Hmph! You just keep spoiling him.”
Mary Fate was very frustrated, with a hint of anger. She was upset that Acoley and Luo Sheng were only teasing her, which wasn’t fair!
Meanwhile.
Luo Sheng’s appearance in the classroom.
Was quickly noticed by the sharp-eyed students.
They immediately looked delighted: “Our combat instructor is back!”
“That’s great! It’s been so long since I’ve had a combat class, I felt like something was missing from my life.”
“I really missed the combat classes! Even though we always got beaten up, it was really exciting! Now that I see him, I feel my body full of energy. If I got my head squeezed by that white-haired beauty, I could probably smile all day.”
Some people had lewd smiles on their faces, making one wonder if they had masochistic tendencies.
Such discussions rose and fell.
The previously quiet classroom gradually became lively.
They were happy about Luo Sheng’s return.
Mr. Hunter, seeing Luo Sheng suddenly appear in the classroom, smiled slightly. Apparently, during the time Luo Sheng was away, Mr. Hunter had also felt bored.
After all, daily life had been routine.
But Luo Sheng’s arrival broke the norm.
It brought new vitality to the previously lifeless academy.
However, it was still class time. What kind of image did a noisy classroom present?
Hunter knocked loudly on the blackboard, “It’s class time now. Anyone who continues to make noise, please go outside!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the classroom returned to silence.
Then Mr. Hunter continued with the lesson.
Luo Sheng sat next to Acoley, and they whispered to each other. Their voices were low, so no one in the large classroom could hear them, and it didn’t disrupt the quiet atmosphere.
Acoley said, “In 10 days, we’ll have the academic exchange with other kingdoms. I thought you might not make it back in time, and I was worried about how we would compete with the other side if you didn’t return.”
“Don’t worry, I said I’d be back because I want to study the fallen prince from the other kingdom.”
“That’s good.”
“By the way, is the academic exchange happening so soon?”
“Yes, King Ankara’s people have already arrived at the kingdom’s border, so the Magic Academy is holding the exchange early.”
“I see. I’ll talk to Mr. Hunter after class,” Luo Sheng said, crossing his arms and thinking seriously.
A moment later, he turned his head to look at Mary Fate, who was humming a tune, and said, “By the way, I remember telling you to train hard while I was away. I wonder how your training has progressed.”
Mary Fate had been in a good mood.
But when she heard Luo Sheng’s words.
She immediately felt a chill run down her spine.
After Luo Sheng left, Mary Fate had been in a state of laziness every day.
Apart from going to the East Special Restaurant to eat seriously, she spent the rest of her time lying around or going shopping with Acoley.
Recently, because of selling artworks, Mary Fate had quite a bit of pocket money, so she went shopping more often.
She had completely forgotten Luo Sheng’s instructions.
Mary Fate laughed awkwardly, “Of course, I’ve been training seriously. It’s just that the results aren’t as good as when you train me.”
Acoley silently added, “After you left, she’s been playing around the whole time.”
“Acoley, how can you side with him like this? I’m your best friend!” Mary Fate complained.
Then she saw Luo Sheng’s meaningful smile.
And him patting her shoulder lightly, saying in a voice like a demon from hell, “Very good, lazing around so much after I left. But don’t worry, I’ll slowly help you catch up on your progress.”
Mary Fate felt like she had fallen from heaven into hell.
She shook her head frantically, “That’s not good, is it? You just got back and you’re already training me. You’ll be very tired. Why don’t you rest for a few days first?”
“No need, I’ll be resting while training you anyway,” Luo Sheng said with a terrifying smile.
Mary Fate felt goosebumps all over her body.
She felt like she had been targeted by a demon.
So scary…
“Is it too late for me to quit?” Mary Fate mumbled.
“Sorry, I’ve already invested in you, so you can’t leave. Just accept it obediently, it will be very helpful for your future,” Luo Sheng said seriously.
He patted her shoulders with both hands, giving her a confident smile.
Mary Fate seemed to see her future self, lying painfully on the ground, at the mercy of the man before her, being tortured mercilessly.
So terrifying!
I don’t want to live like this!
Mary Fate thought about rushing home after school to escape from this man.
