The memory after that seemed to become blurred. Lin Tianlang didn't remember what happened afterwards very clearly. He only remembered that after the principal's breath dissipated, he fainted due to extreme grief and lack of rest for three days.

Anyway, when Lin Tianlang woke up again, he found himself lying on the bed without knowing when. Looking at the ceiling, he found it a little strange. But after taking a closer look at the layout of the room, it looked like a dormitory. Looking at it a few more times, the layout of the room had a full girlish atmosphere. The color tone of the room was pink, and there were some cute cloth dolls on the desk next to it, or the dressing table.

"Where is this...?" Lin Tianlang sat up from the bed, supported his aching head, looked around, his eyes a little dazed. He was very sure that he had never been to this room before. It was filled with the scent of girls, fragrant, and very familiar. Lin Tianlang even roughly guessed who it was. The scent of each girl was very unique. As long as they were not together, Lin Tianlang was still 70% to 80% sure that he could identify them individually.

"Autumn Moon?"

Lin Tianlang frowned slightly. Could it be that... he was in Qiuyue's room?

Soon, Lin Tianlang's guess was confirmed. The door was suddenly pushed open slowly, and then Lin Tianlang saw a pink-haired girl peeking inside through the crack of the door, and her eyes met Lin Tianlang's.

"ah……"

The sudden eye contact made Qiuyue feel a little awkward, but her worry for Lin Tianlang obviously overcame this awkwardness. She pursed her lips, pushed open the door, and came to the bed: "Master...you, you're awake?"

"Hmm..." Lin Tianlang nodded: "What's wrong with me?"

"Master, you...passed out because you haven't rested for too long...plus you suffered a great mental shock..." Qiuyue said slowly, biting her teeth lightly.

"Then...I...how long have I slept?" Lin Tianlang took a deep breath and asked softly.

"About half a day." Qiuyue said softly.

"Half a day?" Lin Tianlang exhaled softly and looked out the window. Yes, it should be shortly after nightfall.

"..."

"..."

Afterwards, the two of them fell into a long silence, and no one spoke. Lin Tianlang looked up and saw Qiuyue lowering her head, and her eyes were slightly red, and it seemed that there were tears in them. He knew why Qiuyue was crying, because even he himself felt a pain in his heart.

"Qiuyue..."

"Owner!"

Qiuyue seemed to be unable to hold back any longer, her tear glands burst, tears poured out of her eyes, and then she fell forward and threw herself into Lin Tianlang's arms. Lin Tianlang tightly caught Qiuyue who was rushing towards him and hugged her.

"The principal...is gone..." Qiuyue buried her head in Lin Tianlang's arms and said with sobs.

"..."

Lin Tianlang remained silent, saying nothing, but gently stroked Qiuyue's back with his hand.

Yes... the principal is gone. It all seemed like a dream. The principal's voice and appearance were still vivid in my mind. Such an extremely powerful magician actually fell like this, and died in the hands of the Demon Lord.

After years of companionship, whenever Lin Tianlang encountered an accident, Vincent would always appear at the right time to save him from danger. The principal was always his strongest backing, encouraging him when he was down, helping him when he had difficulties, and guiding him when he was confused. It was precisely because of the principal's step-by-step guidance that Lin Tianlang is what he is today. However, now, this strongest backing has been broken. This means that from now on, Lin Tianlang no longer has anyone to rely on, and he can only rely on himself. He can only rely on himself to face the final darkness...

"Yes... the principal is gone..." Lin Tianlang patted Qiuyue's back gently and said softly. Although until now, he still didn't want to believe it, and didn't want to believe this fact. But this is already an ironclad reality, and even escaping will not help, because what happened has already happened, time cannot be reversed, and the past cannot be changed. Now, the only thing he can do is to pick up this broken heart, and then strengthen his faith and continue to move forward.

"..."

Lin Tianlang gently let go of Qiuyue, then took out the golden token that the principal had given him before his death from the lining of his clothes and held it tightly.

"Qiuyue, I'm fine...where are the others?" Lin Tianlang asked.

"Weiwei and the others have all gone back. Do you need me to call them over?" Qiuyue said, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes.

“No need.” Lin Tianlang shook his head: “Where are the teachers?”

"Teachers... go and prepare for the funeral." Qiuyue said softly.

"Okay, I understand." Lin Tianlang nodded gently: "Thank you for taking care of me for the past half day, Qiuyue. Thank you for your hard work."

"How could that be..." Qiuyue shook her head gently: "Master is fine...that's the best."

"Well, in that case, I'll leave first." Lin Tianlang took a deep breath, nodded to Qiuyue, and then turned and left. He left Qiuyue's room and came to the living room. Speaking of which, this seems to be his first time to come to the girls' dormitory. In fact, there is no distinction between male and female dormitories in the dormitory area of ​​​​Shenglun College, because they are all apartment buildings. A building usually has three floors and six dormitories. And whether there are boys or girls living in the dormitory is completely random. For example, in the dormitory building No. 07 where Lin Tianlang's dormitory is located, he lives in dormitory No. 302, and the dormitory No. 301 opposite him is a girls' dormitory. It is inevitable to meet when walking around in class, but because everyone is not in the same class, they are not familiar with each other.

"Qiuyue, where is your roommate?" Lin Tianlang asked.

"They...all went home and did not participate in the school training." Qiuyue replied softly.

"Well, then... I'll leave first." Lin Tianlang nodded, without saying much, just turned the door handle and walked out. Qiuyue looked at Lin Tianlang's back, stretched out her hand, wanted to say something, but swallowed it back. She could feel that there seemed to be something different about Lin Tianlang. That figure, for some reason, seemed to be filled with a sense of tragedy.

……

……

For the next two days, Lin Tianlang was almost in a trance, locking himself in the dormitory all day long, and not paying attention to the outside world. His roommates Karion and Leia felt a little strange about this, but seeing that Lin Tianlang's condition seemed a little wrong, they did not bother him rashly, leaving Lin Tianlang with enough personal space.

Then, time came to the third day. On this day, all training courses were terminated, and at the same time, a huge piece of news spread on campus, causing an uproar.

Principal Vincent passed away.

When the news came out, the students were first extremely surprised, and then subconsciously chose not to believe it. But today all training courses were terminated, and all students were gathered in the auditorium, and everyone realized the seriousness of the matter.

On this day, Lin Tianlang walked out of his dormitory room for the first time in his life. He ignored Karion and Leia and went to the auditorium alone. The sky was gray and gloomy, which was a good comfort to Lin Tianlang's heart. In the past few days, Lin Tianlang's heart was just like the sky, gray, dark, and without any color.

Vincent's death was like losing a relative to Lin Tianlang, and a close relative at that. In the past few years, from the time Lin Tianlang first met Vincent until now, they had already established a relationship far beyond that of an ordinary teacher and student. This relationship took deep root in Lin Tianlang's heart, connecting to the depths of his heart. But now, this root was broken.

Arriving at the auditorium, as usual, every time there is a large assembly, the auditorium is very lively, and the administrator Mr. Gel has to spend a lot of effort to maintain everyone's discipline. This noise usually ends when Vincent takes the stage to speak. Out of respect for the principal, no one will deliberately make noise when he speaks. Although Principal Vincent is not a very strict and scary character, on the contrary, he is quite easy-going and elegant, but his majesty is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and no one dares to challenge it.

But today, the situation was very different. Lin Tianlang found that the entire auditorium was actually very quiet. The students just quietly found their seats, and then hurriedly sat down and shut up without making any sound. This was very rare, and could even be said to be quite abnormal.

"Mr. Gel." At the door, Lin Tianlang saw Gel and nodded to him.

"It's Tianlang..." Gel looked at Lin Tianlang and nodded to him. Then he stretched out his hand and patted Lin Tianlang on the shoulder. He wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing and just sighed softly.

The auditorium was not full, because a considerable number of students had gone home. Currently, only about half of the auditorium was occupied, and there were still many empty seats.

Lin Tianlang found a random seat and sat down. About ten minutes passed, and occasionally one or two students came in from outside. When the time was almost up, the assembly officially began.

Normally, the person who would come to the stage at such times would be Principal Vincent. But this time, it was not him who came out, but someone else - Professor Nervy.

But in fact, Vincent is actually on the stage now - his face is peaceful, lying quietly in the coffin surrounded by wreaths, with his hands clasped in front of his chest, as if he is asleep...
