Supernatural Academy 3 - Chapter 4

Chapter 4

He walked up to Lou Lifan, looked at him for a long time, and suddenly laughed. He was already very handsome, and when he laughed, it was like a spring breeze. Lou Lifan's face turned red.

Pei Linhai was shocked to see his reaction.

"You are... Lou Lifan?"

"Yes." Lou Lifan looked up and smiled at the tall, handsome monster.

Pei Linhai hoped this was a nightmare, because he was seeing Lou Lifan now, just like a real girl facing the object of her love at first sight, flashing her most beautiful and adorable smile. Who Lou Lifan fell in love with was none of his business; even if she fell for a man, a devil, or even a rock, he wouldn't dare object. But that guy was Beren! They were here specifically to steal his things! How could they… how could they… how would they get back if they failed their mission!

Pei Linhai was jumping up and down by himself, completely unaffected by the two people staring at each other.

"Do you want to study the Demonization major? Why?" Beren asked with a smile.

Reply [12]: “Hmm.” Lou Lifan replied, “Because I want my… demonic power to be used to its fullest potential.” He originally intended to say “spiritual power” but changed it halfway through, almost biting his tongue in the process.

Beren reached out a neatly trimmed, beautifully long hand and touched his face: "But I don't think the Demonization Specialty is necessarily suitable for you. I haven't seen such a beautiful child in a long time. It's a bit of a shame that you're not going to the Seduction Specialty."

The wolf demon Beren is 523 years old this year, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration for him to call Lou Lifan "child." Unfortunately, his tone of voice is so gentle that it makes people think the wrong thing no matter how they listen to it.

Pei Linhai was already greatly stimulated, but Lou Lifan's stimulation was even more terrifying than anything else. Lou Lifan replied to Beren with a smile that could only be described as "tempting": "However, I know that the most handsome teacher Beren of the Wolf Clan is here, so I will not go to the Temptation Department."

Pei Linhai stood there, his whole body frozen solid, and then it crumbled little by little.

"Very good, let's start classes tomorrow."

"yes."

From beginning to end, apart from the first greeting, Belén did not say another word to Peilinhai.

Chapter Three: The Art of Seduction

As they ascended the stairs led by the lamp, Pei Linhai, overwhelmed by the mental shock, repeatedly slipped and tumbled down the stairs. Lou Lifan grew impatient, and after retrieving him from the ground floor for the fifth time, he no longer bothered to warn him to be careful. Instead, he casually grabbed Pei Linhai by the collar and dragged him upstairs. Fortunately, they were currently in their "demon" state; otherwise, ninety-nine percent of Pei Linhai's weight would have been mercilessly whipped by him.

Back in the room, Deng gave them some instructions and left. No sooner had he left than Pei Linhai closed the ornate wooden door, turned back, and grasped Lou Lifan's hand, saying very seriously, "Lifan... I know that wolf demon Beren is very handsome, but I hope you don't forget our sacred mission. Don't be seduced by his good looks..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lou Lifan kicked him in the stomach, and then stomped on his back as he bent over in pain.

"Who are you calling bewitched by male beauty! Huh? Who are you calling?! Say it again so I can hear you!" Lou Lifan was so angry that his veins were bulging. He stomped his feet and gritted his teeth as he muttered, "You pig-headed idiot! You didn't notice anything important at all. All you do is spout nonsense and drag me down. I'll stomp you to death, stomp you to death, stomp you to death, stomp you to death!"

Despite being stomped on and nearly turning into a pig's head, Pei Linhai still couldn't shake his doubts. Lou Lifan's actions were simply too bizarre.

Lou Lifan finally finished venting her anger and angrily stopped her tormenting pace. In a very unladylike manner, she squatted down next to Pei Linhai and whispered, "Didn't you notice what happened between us just now?"

"Nothing was found..."

"..." I stomped my foot... "Did you find out or not?!"

"Waaaaah..." A suppressed, miserable sob escaped her lips. "You could kick me a thousand times and I wouldn't even notice... Waaaaah..."

Lou Lifan was too exhausted to be angry anymore. "Before we came, didn't Teacher Hai Shenlan mention that Beren has many strange spells?" Lou Lifan said weakly, propping his tired head up. "One of them is the 'sedition spell.' When he sees someone he likes, he uses this spell to seduce them, making them fall in love with him, and then playing hard to get. It's his perverse pleasure. He just used that spell on me..."

"So you're the one he's interested in... Ouch!"

Lou Lifan punched him so he stopped talking nonsense and continued, "Since I am not a 'sex', his magic has no effect on me. But if he finds out, my male identity will definitely be exposed, so I can't show that I haven't been tempted. Instead, I have to use the anti-temptation spell taught by Teacher Shenlan from Shanghai to deal with him. It looks like... just like what you saw earlier."

Pei Linhai hadn't expected that they'd already started sparring after just a few words. Moved, he grasped Lou Lifan's hand again: "Wow, the situation was so critical just now! Lifan! You're amazing!"

Lou Lifan waved his hand, and Lou Lifan fell into the pool with a splash.

"Being held in a man's hand and spoken to in that tone...it's disgusting!" Lou Lifan said, shaking his hand.

The pool wasn't deep; when Pei Linhai sat, the water only reached his waist.

"But that guy touched your face just now! Why didn't you hit him?!" Discrimination! Discrimination...

Lou Lifan thought for a moment.

Lou Lifan thought about it again.

Lou Lifan continued to think...

"...because I didn't feel disgusted when he touched me."

As they uttered those words, a chill ran down the spines of both Pei Linhai and Lou Lifan. Lou Lifan crouched on the ground, clutching his head, muttering to himself, "It's over...it's over...could it be that I was seduced again...I thought the seduction technique hadn't worked...could it really have? Ahhhhhh..." He suddenly grabbed Pei Linhai's hand, whom he had just "personally" tossed into the pool, "Pei Linhai, I'm now earnestly asking you for a favor..."

"Huh?" Pei Linhai asked blankly.

"If I really fall in love with him, please kill me! No matter how handsome he is, I don't want to fall in love with a man!" He was practically sobbing as he said this. "Please! Please say yes!"

"Ah...uh...?"

Pei Linhai was speechless.

Reply [13]: Since they were not here to study, and as a half-baked student, the things that the Demon Academy taught were like gibberish to the students of the Supernatural Academy. So Lou Lifan and Pei Linhai were quite lazy in class. Whenever they had time, they would try to build good relationships with the students around them in order to find out all the possible information about Beren.

"Teacher Beren?" The fox demon tilted her head and thought for a moment. "He's so handsome, so incredibly handsome! He's just too handsome!"

"Teacher Beren?" the male locust demon said slowly in a deep voice, "Although I don't want to admit it, he's very handsome, really very handsome."

The tiny mosquito demon, while making an annoying buzzing sound with its wings, dreamily covered its face and exclaimed, "Teacher Beren! Why are you Teacher Beren! You're so handsome... Teacher Beren..."

The answers were varied, but they all boiled down to one thing: Beren is handsome and a heartthrob.

"But why are the results so uniform?" Lou Lifan finally couldn't hold back after writing the 216th "handsome" in his notebook. He slammed down his pen and paper and roared, "It's as if everyone had already agreed on the same thing and was waiting for the answer! Have we been tricked?!"

Pei Linhai lay by the pool and lazily replied, "Ah."

"What are you yelling at!" Lou Lifan stomped hard on his ankle, making him hop around the room in pain, clutching his foot. "You better use your brain, which doesn't have much of a spark! How can we get more meaningful information than just 'handsome'?"

Pei Linhai was almost driven to despair: "Didn't I think about it? Every time I asked a different question, I got the same answer—Professor Belen is so handsome, so handsome, so handsome... If I tried to press him further, the guys would get really irritated and ask if I was deliberately trying to make him look bad, while the girls would start gushing over Belen's picture and singing 'My Sun' at the top of their lungs. How can anyone keep asking questions like that?"

“…What should I do…” Lou Lifan grabbed his hair in anguish, turning his once-gloss black short hair into a mess like a bird's nest. “It’s the same on my side…”

“Actually, there is another way…” Pei Linhai’s voice was very soft, but Lou Lifan still heard it.

"What method?"

"This method is likely to work, but..."

A ballpoint pen hit him on the head: "What's the plan! Tell me now!"

“That means…you…personally…” Pei Linhai swallowed hard, “personally experience…personally understand him…”

Lou Lifan didn't quite understand what he meant.

Lou Lifan was thinking.

Lou Lifan was still thinking.

Lou Lifan tried hard to think. ...

I've figured it out.

From Pei Linhai and Lou Lifan's room came the piercing screams of someone about to be chopped into mincemeat.

Half an hour later, Pei Linhai huddled in a corner, hugging his battered and bruised self, and cried, "You're the one who made me say it..."

"Are you an idiot?!" Lou Lifan roared, "How could I personally...do this kind of thing! What do you think we went through all that trouble to question other people?!"

"But isn't this a failure..."

"Even if it doesn't work, you can't use such a terrible idea!!!" Another round of brutal beatings followed.

Pei Linhai's face was distorted from the slaps, and he defended himself with great grievance: "But this is the only way I can think of right now! And what I didn't want to say just now, you forced me to say..."

"I said no matter what, you can't use such a terrible idea!!"

By the time Lou Lifan calmed down, Pei Linhai was almost beaten to death, in a way that made him unrecognizable except for the things on his body.

"Then... what should we do?" Pei Linhai asked cautiously, trembling, on the verge of tears.

“It seems…” Lou Lifan scratched his head, utterly dejected, “…we still have to use your method…” Pei Linhai fainted.

Chapter Four: Mission Successful?

Pei Linhai held the heavy book, while Lou Lifan's hand rested on its pages. The longing expressed on the pages was transmitted to his palm, transforming into a signal. He emitted an attractive wave, making this signal the source of "attraction"—this was one method of finding "longing."

The book emitted a slow, rhythmic contraction, like a heartbeat. Lou Lifan and Pei Linhai's eyes glowed with a faint red light. To them, the entire room appeared black and white; only things sharing the same "longing" as the book displayed color.

"The second bookshelf from the left, the first book in the top right row."

"The third bookshelf from the right, the sixth book in the nineteenth row from the bottom right."

"The left drawer, the hidden compartment glows."

"The roof has color in the center."

"The first bookshelf on the left, where it meets the wall."

The two quickly exchanged the information they had discovered, but the colors were not very strong, indicating that the obsession on that thing was not strong enough. Since the obsession was not strong, it was probably not that thing.

At 2:45, Beren would be back in 15 minutes. If he was in a good mood, he would sometimes come back around 2:50. The two of them still had some finishing work to do, so they couldn't stay any longer. After a brief exchange of ideas, they divided the work and quickly put everything in the room back in its original place. Then they crawled out through the hole they had just dug.

Of course, the hole couldn't just be left for Beren to see. Pei Linhai drew a circle in front of the mound of earth, and the mound disappeared silently into a dark hole. After the mound disappeared, the dark hole also disappeared, and the ground was flat and smooth, as if nothing had ever been left there.

Then Lou Lifan placed his hands on either side of the cave entrance, and his whole body trembled: "Seal!"

Reply [14]: Thousands of thin optical fibers flashed at the entrance of the hole, sealing it tightly. Finally, an outer layer of shielding that was no different from the previous wall was automatically covered on the outside. Even the sealer himself probably could hardly tell where it had been sealed.

This is Lou Lifan's innate ability: sealing with his bare hands.

However, the drawback of the seal used this time is that it works very well for "visual" sealing, but is less effective for "tactile" sealing. In other words, if Beren returns, he will see a perfectly intact room, but if he walks up to this wall and touches it, he will immediately notice that the texture is different, and based on his experience, he will immediately know that this place has been broken into.

Lou Lifan also wanted it to be perfect in terms of "tactile sensation," but unfortunately it was difficult. It was possible to do it, but it would consume a lot of energy and time, and it wasn't really necessary.

The two packed up their digging tools and put them back in the shadows under the stairs. They then converted their spiritual energy into demonic energy and calmly walked up the stairs as if nothing had happened.

The timing was perfect; they had just reached the twenty-fifth floor when they saw Beren gracefully floating down from above.

"Hello, Chairman!"
