The Villain Only Wants to Live a Buddhist Life2

Diana's mouth was turned up so that she could hang her socks.

Rose was sitting on the other side of Dak, and it was not easy to feed at this time, so she had to blink desperately at Dak.

Dak sighed, so he had no choice but to move the plate holding the whole cake in front of him, cut it into three parts neatly, and asked one part, "Do you want to eat it?"

"Eat." Diana responded preconditionally, and puffed up her cheeks again.

But when the cake was delivered to her eyes, she still grabbed the fork and ate it honestly.

The atmosphere finally eased up...well, it wasn't tense in the first place.

This year's Christmas party is still lively, the students are talking and laughing, the aroma of desserts and black tea on the table is overflowing, the brisk rhythm of the piano drives the cheerful mood, and the unlit "mountain" shaped candlestick dances up and down on the stave , colorful balls of light float in the air, shrinking and expanding from time to time.

The four well-defined long tables are covered with crimson tablecloths, and a small Christmas tree stands at intervals. Under the Christmas tree, there are elk pulling a sleigh and bags full of presents—but there is no Santa Claus.

On the stage directly in front, the huge Christmas tree was covered with countless gift boxes and ornaments.

The dazzling golden crown, the magic guide book that emits magic light, the shining spear, and the complete set of tarot cards with [The Fool] as the first card...

Four iconic items float around the tree, and glowing elves spin and dance around the tree, laughing like silver bells from time to time.

Looking up, there is a gorgeous Milky Way flowing on the ceiling, countless stars flickering, and the mystery is unpredictable in the magnificence.

In this infinitely inflated festive atmosphere, elegantly dressed professors finally filed in from the side and rear of the stage, and took their seats on the teacher's bench one by one.

In St. Marian College, there are actually not uncommon staff changes every year. This year, there are a few new faces in the teaching team, and a few old faces are missing.

But students only need to know the professors of each subject and the deans of each branch, and that's it.

Duck glanced over there and saw Hephaes Dragonon, but not Ophelia Bullard.

Professor Ryan Hacks, who only came after Christmas last year, has blended in harmoniously.

It's just that for some reason, his head, which had regrown long flowing hair, turned into a smooth bald head, rounder than the moon.

Professor Lily seemed to be in a good mood, and as soon as they sat down, they ate the desserts on the table with Professor Nini.

Ms. Bella in the library seems to have a good relationship with Hephaes. They work next to each other and whisper to each other.

Professor Sylph sat in the second place. Tonight, she was wearing a thick coat and a snow-white scarf around her neck. Her face was cold, which was in stark contrast to Professor Mitia who was still wearing a thin purple robe.

Professor Jones was sitting in the back seat, and on the other side of her was Professor Holder Bird, who looked gloomy as before.

Professor Thompson, Professor Eric, Professor Bacon, Professor Steven Harvey...

Almost all the professors that can be thought of have arrived, except Kazel.

……

"Principal Arte, are you going to appear last again?"

Rose leaned close to Dak's ear and asked in a low voice.

"Maybe."

Dak frowned slightly, but couldn't explain.

These days, although he is concentrating on making golems, he is not deaf to things outside the window.

It's a little different from what was planned.

Although Professor Sylve made a remote report to Principal Arte, it seems that he did not get any constructive suggestions.

This is related to the fact that Principal Arte is not in the academy—there is a limit to what the avatar can do.

In this incident, the Duke's Mansion and St. Marian College have reached a private alliance agreement.

Ollie and Eve will act as representatives of the Duke's Mansion and cooperate with the academy until the end of this time.

Because of this, the Duke's Mansion also got some secret information to share.

Among them, for example, Dak has always been very curious about the whereabouts of Principal Arte.

In short, she is indeed not in the academy now.

The last time she was in the academy was when the professors discovered the [God's Heart] in the dungeon.

At that time, she went to the dungeon with Professor Kazel and witnessed the existence of [God's Heart].

Not long after that, she left school again, and her destination...was Star Tower!

Star Tower is known as "Holy Land for Astrologers" and "A Place for Picking Stars with Tentacles"...

Before the city of the sky appeared, it was also known as the "highest place".

No matter what these titles are, Star Tower is the gathering place of the world's top astrologers.

The contemporary Tower Master of Star Tower is also one of the authorities of astrology.

In comparison, Professor Mitia Bartholomew is slightly inferior.

In order to see clearly the future direction, Principal Arte went to the Star Tower and visited the tower owner. The final result is self-evident.

After that, St. Marian College launched the "Project to God".

Professor Kazel's little experiment is part of the "Project for God", but it was added after taking into account Professor Kazel's private wishes.

The dungeon of St. Mary's College is an integral part of the college's facilities. In principle, the college doesn't want to risk experiments inside, let alone mix the two factors of "secret passage" and "god", because no one can predict it. to what will happen.

In short, Principal Arte prefers to put the risk outside and wait until safety is ensured before bringing it back.

Therefore, the real "plan for God" is led by her and executed by herself.

Under the guidance of the Tower Master of the Star Tower, she set off to the north...there is the mountain of the gods that once collapsed—Mount Polopos!

The so-called Mount Porobos is basically the use of Mount Olympus in the original game.

It is the pole of light, the entrance to the heaven, and the place where the gods rule the people.

Even among the gods, the "God" is the most noble part.

Considering that the gods are about to recover, Principal Arte originally planned to explore several places, including the "Mountain of the Gods" Polopos, and the "Land of God's Fall" Silent Plain and other places.

It's just that the Tower Master of the Star Tower helped her make a choice.

……

Information sharing ends here.

Although Dak really wants to know why Principal Arte went to Mount Porobos, what he found in Mount Porobos, and where the exploration on Mount Porobos has progressed... But these are all top-secret information. Even Professor Lily, one of the deans of the four major branches, doesn't know about it!

In short, Principal Arte may not be able to come back in a short time.

Regarding her exploration of Mount Porobos, if she had not made breakthrough progress, she had encountered unprecedented difficulties.

Professor Sylph didn't mention a word, and no one else could guess.

Therefore, at tonight's Christmas party, I am afraid that only Principal Arte's avatar will appear.

As for whether her avatar is "Principal Arte"?

For the majority of uninformed students, it may be counted. ...

"Duang~"

Not long after the professors took their seats one after another, the bell at seven o'clock came from the direction of the spiral clock tower.

The first-year students looked curiously at the direction of the bell, while the higher-grade students were already prepared.

The lights in the entire auditorium were instantly extinguished after the bell rang, the light disappeared, and the darkness was terrifying... and the panic was naturally only limited to the first graders.

There is such a scene at the Christmas party every year, and I don’t know which professor’s bad taste originally came from it?

Dak narrowed his eyes slightly, and counted silently for three seconds, and saw that the silver candlesticks floating in the air were all lit up, and the halo of the candle flames instantly joined together, illuminating the entire hall, and light and shadow quickly intertwined.

The dinner party atmosphere unique to St. Marian College gradually emerged.

The desserts and tea spread on the table disappeared silently, and rows of gold and silver tableware quietly appeared. The candle fire shone on the gold and silver tableware, reflecting a faint colorful light.

The most beautiful and noble lady of St. Mary's College - Cynthia St. Arte, quietly appeared on the stage while the students were attracted by the cutlery on the table.

She raised her staff and waved her hand lightly, the crowing of elk suddenly sounded from afar, and then quickly approached.

The sky lit up with bright stars.

The starlight arrived just after the sound, and the snow-white reindeer pulling the sleigh ran out of the starlight. Santa Claus with a big beard was sitting on the sleigh, and there was starlight flowing from the bottom of the gift bag on his back. Drag the long tail.

It appeared from this side of the stage, circled around the spacious hall, broke through the gate amidst the cries of elk, and disappeared into the night with its long star tail.

But the starlight flowing from the bottom of the gift bag fell on the dinner plate, turning into countless delicacies.

That's a gift from Santa Claus, a source of joy tonight.

Among the countless delicacies, in front of almost everyone, there is a fat and tender turkey with rich meat, the belly of the turkey is facing up, and the fragrant ingredients are overflowing from the incision of the belly , sliding down the fat on the surface of the turkey on the dinner plate, mouth-watering.

The excited students couldn't help picking up their knives and forks, eager to enjoy the delicious cuisine that only happens once a year.

"Today is Christmas Eve!"

Principal Arte's voice followed.

"It's a day to be with the family!"

"But for me, St. Marianne is my home."

"Every student here is my family."

"Every Christmas Eve, I will make a wish, hoping to spend it with my family on the next Christmas Eve."

"It seems that my wish from last year has come true again."

……

"Sure enough, it's the wish I make every Christmas Eve, and it's exactly the same as last year's speech."

Duck held the knife and fork, silently complaining.

There must be quite a few people in the hall who think the same as him, but everyone tacitly kept silent.

Because Principal Arte's speech is coming to an end soon.

And why bother to expose her?

The children of St. Marian College are always so gentle.

……

"I wish you all a safe Christmas Eve! No matter when and where, peace will be with you, my dear family members!"
