Jeffrey turned his gaze to him and asked, "Then, Irving, do you have a candidate in mind?"

Irving let out a dry cough and shifted his gaze to the side. "No."

Then what did you say all that sh*t for!

Jeffrey inwardly scolded him and turned his head to look at the snow scape outside the window.

Irving added, "Here's the thing, everyone is a student of Noble House, each with their own pride. It's still fine to appoint someone from the second year to duel against a first year, but it'll be very difficult to find someone from the third year who would be willing to do this. So for this matter… actually, we don't really have to keep targeting him. Even if he establishes his own club later on, it wouldn't change the fact that he came from Noble House, so his club will never make things difficult for Noble House. We can actually form a faction together…"

"Stop!"

Mike Irving's speech that came out of nowhere was obviously going against the decision he had made. This made him feel very displeased.

Suddenly, he hit upon an idea. He looked at Irving and sneered, "I've found a candidate!"

……

Dark never expected that such a good student of good character who had both excellent conduct and upright morals like himself would actually be targeted by other people.

After he walked out of the tower of Noble House with his large pack in tow, he went up the nearest stairs to the fifth floor instead of immediately leaving the castle.

At this height, they would be able to take in most of the scenery.

One by one, the magical spirits climbed up to the opening in the castle wall, looking down at the pure white land covered in snow.

The snow scape, when seen from a high place and directly viewed from the ground, were two completely different sceneries. This kind of opportunity was hard to come by.

Dark hoped the magical spirits would be able to experience it in more viewpoints.

He stood on the side and warmly watched the magical spirits excitedly jumping for joy, feeling gradually fulfilled in his heart.

Dianna had pulled Rose along with her and perfectly mingled among the magical spirits. Not the slightest difference could be spotted between them.

The two girls' familiar spirits ran around at their heels. Although they looked quite agile, Dark, who was used to seeing his own magical spirits, could easily see through the rigidity in their movements.

"I should find a chance to give them a little surprise." Dark faintly smiled.

……

After the magical spirits had finished messing around, Dark led them down the castle from the stairs on the other side.

His current capacity of magic energy was approximately equal to that of an adult magister, but the quality and recovery rate of his magic energy were far more superior, so the amount of magic energy he could use per unit of time was higher than that of an adult magister.

The amount of magic energy consumed by a small number of magical spirits could be made up by relying on his strong recovery rate alone. That was why he could still go on with considerable ease until now.

But if this continued for a little longer, he might start running out of magic energy.

So next, he was going to look for a suitable place to activate [Wonderland].

……

While Dark was preparing for the snow viewing activity in the afternoon, most first year students were busy fretting over Valentine's Day.

Over at the tower of Knight House, in the first year dormitory, White Gawd and Robert Brogheim were hiding in their room playing magic chess.

Because Robert acquired a new chess piece, White, who was originally no match for him, had now become even less of a competition.

The two of them could barely play together.

After landing in a tight spot once again, White asked with some hesitation, "Robert, what do you think was the reason Dark deliberately revealed that vampire chess piece?"

Robert shook his head, indicating that he was even more at a loss.

White surmised on his own, "Up to this day, the seal of the secret passage has yet to be undone. Do you think this might be because the professors haven't been able to find that vampire? Could it be that Dark revealed the vampire chess piece in order to lure him into taking the bait? But will this really work?'

Robert shook his head again. "I don't know."

White: "If Dark really did that under the professors' instruction, do you think Vlad the Vampire might've actually escaped from the secret passage and is currently hiding among us? Otherwise, nothing could explain why he did that!"

Robert sighed, "White, don't think too much about this, it's too dangerous. Even if you guessed it correctly, this isn't something we can intervene in."

"That's not necessarily true." White shook the chess piece and muttered, "Thanks to the help from the seniors, my [Holy Sword Spell] is already about to be completed."

After a brief surprise, Robert immediately congratulated him, "That's great! The Holy Sword and the Brave One. With the Holy Sword, the Brave One can finally show its true potential! Do you still remember Professor Medea's prophecy?"

"Of course." White said, "History repeats itself, the circle of life is never ending. I'll carry on my father's will and become a Holy Sword user worthy of the status of the son of the Brave One!"

Robert smiled at him, "Then, Mister Holy Sword User, are you ready to give out your chocolate?"

White's expression instantly stiffened. He heaved a sigh, "I'll have to do with store-bought chocolate."

This implied that he had tried to make handmade chocolate, but the attempt ended in a failure.

Robert consoled him, "Actually, it's all the same. Maybe the store-bought chocolate tastes even better."

White: "Maybe."

While he was sighing, his [Castle] was flawlessly captured by Robert's piece.

But his mind was already drifting away.

Robert asked, "How is it, have you decided on how to send it? Are you going to ask someone to help you pass it on, secretly put it at the front desk of the library, or give it in person?"

White snapped out of his daze and resolutely said, "I'm the Brave One's son—I'll do it in person!"

……

Half an hour later, White and Robert showed up at the entrance of the library.

The moment he came to the door, White became very nervous.

He hesitated for a while. Once there were no more people around the doorway, he finally gritted his teeth and walked into the library.

Pandora was reading a book at the front desk.

She and Ms Bella had agreed to change shifts at around three in the afternoon.

Right now, there was still half an hour before three o'clock.

Since she started her shift at noon, she had received one gift after another without a stop. They had already piled up into a hill under the counter.

After experiencing the short-term pain from the previous few years, those boys who gave her chocolates had probably realized that it was completely useless to confess their feelings.

So they simply took their leave after giving her the chocolates.

There were also some people from some sort of fanclub who gave her a large quantity of chocolates and flowers at once.

The same thing pretty much happened every year on Valentine's day.

Moreover, the amount of gifts kept increasing each year.

In short, as long as it wasn't a face-to-face confession, Pandora would accept everything without question.

As for what she would do with the chocolates after receiving them?

Of course she wouldn't show them off or eat them.

[Valentine's Day Chocolate] was a pretty good mystery ingredient.

……

Pandora raised her head to look at the doorway. Those two first year students had already been standing there for several minutes.

For a librarian in charge of registration, this kind of people who kept wandering around the doorway was quite a nuisance. However, she had a question she wanted to ask, so she continued to endure it.

One of the two, the black-haired boy, finally walked into the library.

But looking at his expression alone, people would've probably mistakenly thought that he was going to a battlefield.

"Write down your name." When he came closer, Pandora casually nudged the registration book towards him.

White's expression froze. For a good while, he was stuck staring at that registration book. After that, gritting his teeth, he suddenly took out the box of chocolate he had been hiding behind him. And then he shouted, "Senior sister, please accept my chocolate!"

Pandora unflinchingly pointed to the table. "You can put it there."

White looked over and obediently put the chocolate amidst the pile of boxes.

Before he could think of something else to say, he heard Pandora ask, "By the way, you're classmates with Dark Demon, right? Do you know where he is right now?"
