Chapter 72 A trustworthy partner
Every year, the start of the new school year at Kassel College brings countless news, but no year has ever been as exciting as this year.

First there was the super A-level freshman Chu Zihang who caused a sensation in the Lionheart Club, then there was the little witch Nuonuo who stole the limelight, and finally there came an "S"-level Fengjian Liuli. This year's batch seems to be particularly lively.

Furthermore, ever since that S-level freshman entered the school, the college forums and news networks have never been quiet. Some specialists who have graduated for many years have become curious, and the discussion about her has never stopped.

The most popular discussion was about how strong this girl who looked as beautiful and innocent as a little white flower was.

The sunlight shone in from the window. The man sitting in the shadow put down his phone, leaned back in his chair and exhaled silently. In front of him was a cup of hot tea with white steam rising from it.

The old man sitting opposite the table pushed a cup of tea in front of him. Schneider's masked face was reflected in the green tea.

Schneider did not take the cup of tea. He just looked at the old man opposite him and said with some doubt in his voice: "Is 'Freedom Day' really necessary? The Executive Department does not need unruly playboys. They are supposed to be soldiers who strictly abide by the rules and regulations."

"Relax, Schneider." Angers smiled. When he smiled, he looked like an authentic old European gentleman, with a kind and all-embracing heart. "I deliberately gave them space."

"In a war with dragons, victory is never achieved by the number of troops. We need geniuses." The principal changed his words to English: "Somebody."

"Somebody?"

"The One! A unique genius, a leader, a dragon slayer that even dragon kings would fear. Just one is enough, just like my friend Menek Cassel." The principal whispered, "To cultivate a genius, you need a free environment."

"Maybe. Chu Zihang and Caesar are both unprecedented geniuses, but Fengjian Liuli...is this girl really someone we can control?"

There was fear in Schneider's eyes. As the head of the executive department, he had witnessed too many terrible events and hideous creatures, but that girl gave him the feeling of a demon crawling out of hell.

No matter how pure and beautiful she looks, the cruelty and madness in her bones cannot be hidden. A sheep cannot disguise itself among wolves, and similarly, the devil cannot hide the smell of blood on his body.

The last time he saw Kazama Ruri, Schneider didn't have such a clear feeling, but this time after she returned from Japan, that terrifying aura became more and more clear. She looked so calm, but beneath the calmness there were raging storms, and anyone who got a glimpse of the secret would be swallowed up by the huge waves.

Compared to a human, perhaps the girl is more like the white monarch. The blood flowing in her veins must be the burning dragon blood. The human genes are being infinitely reduced, but not only has she not transformed into Deadpool, but she is sober and rational, even extremely intelligent.

This was simply a ghost story, and he was watching the evil ghost wandering around the campus, surrounded by innocent students.

To her, these students might be like fresh blood, or ants that could be crushed to death at will.

Is it really okay to bring such a dangerous being to the academy? Once she gets out of control, the academy will have no way to check and balance her.

Von Schneider couldn't even imagine what would happen if she lost control. He was afraid it would be a sea of ​​blood and corpses, and hell would descend.

This was the first time in his life that he questioned the principal's orders, but when he expressed his concerns, the handsome old man just took a sip of tea.

“How terrible a person is is not determined by how strong his power is, but by his heart.”

"Heart?"

"Yes, you know Herzog, the Dr. Dragon who messed up the whole of Japan, but he is actually a very weak person. Anyone can kill him easily, so he never shows up easily and only uses clones."

"This ordinary but cunning man controls both the Snake Eight Clan and the Oni Clan. With the help of Princess Kaguya, even Norma can't find where his real body is hiding. He spent ten years controlling almost the entire Japanese underworld."

"If his plan had not been ruined by Genji, no one knows how many people would have died at his hands. It is also hard to imagine what earth-shattering event he would have done in the end. Perhaps by the time we find out, he has really resurrected the White King."

Talking about this ambitious man, Schneider was also terrified: "He is indeed amazing, but unfortunately he had bad luck and ran into a madman like Fengjian Liuli."

"But doesn't this also just show how terrifying Kazama Ruri is?"

Schneider's expression became complicated. "She has lived under surveillance since she was a child, and has been abandoned by everyone. Even in this situation, she was able to turn the tide and kill Herzog. I simply cannot imagine how she did it."

"It's not about how she did it, it's about what she did to do it and what she did after she did it."

Ange put down the exquisite teacup and looked out the window, as if recalling: "When she attacked the Snake Eight Clan, I was watching from a distance. I saw her facing all the deadpools alone in order to save those people in the Snake Eight Clan who were still enemies to her."

"I also saw that when I showed up, she was clearly at the end of her strength but she still insisted on protecting everyone. I understood better than anyone that she wanted freedom, but she chose to give up her freedom for those who betrayed and hurt her."

"In fact, after she got her revenge, she could have just walked away. She could have ignored the mess in Japan, but she was unwilling to back down even until her death."

"Because she knew that things would get out of control if the academy intervened, and many evil ghosts would be imprisoned for life or even executed. In order to protect these guys, she would rather die." At this point, the gentleman sighed softly: "I really wanted to kill her at the time, and I did so, but then when I saw her fall, I suddenly hesitated."

"If a person is willing to give up her freedom or even die to protect others, no matter how powerful she is, she is always on the side of humans. So when Uesugi Yue appeared later, I took advantage of the situation and backed off. It was also a way to give face to an old friend."

"My only enemies are those damn reptiles. I'm not crazy enough to destroy such a lovely girl, but if she changes one day, she will be my enemy and I will do my best to wipe her out. Before that, I'm willing to believe that she is one of my own."

“He is a trustworthy partner.”

Schneider's expression showed some emotion. He had not been to Japan and didn't know so many inside stories. After Uesugi Yue regained control of the Japanese underworld, he erased most traces of that battle. Almost no one at the academy knew about the earth-shaking changes that took place in the Japanese branch during that time.

Even Schneider only knew a general idea of ​​the girl from what Angers mentioned. Now, after hearing all this, he felt that he had a new understanding of the girl.

He thought the girl was the kind of person who was indifferent to human nature. She and Chu Zihang were from the same school and had a life-and-death relationship, but she was as cold as a stranger and even put a knife on Chu Zihang's neck. She was completely inhumane, like a lunatic.

But now he suddenly understood a little. Growing up in that kind of environment, she probably didn't know how to refuse others. The only way she knew was to scare people away with a knife.

Come to think of it, if such a madman really wanted to kill someone, Chu Zihang would have died quietly without even having the chance to come to the academy. Why would she have to be so bluffing and aggressive?

This feeling is like a cat with its fur standing up, baring its teeth and making threatening growls from its throat. Only in this way will this cute little thing look a little fierce and scare off its natural enemies.

After thinking all this through, Schneider felt a surge of complex emotions. He thought that the girl had lived for more than 20 years and probably had never encountered any happy things.

If a spring is compressed for a long time, it will not return to its original shape when the pressure disappears. Schneider felt that this was the case with his student, but as long as he still maintained a human heart, everything could still be saved.

Speaking of which, this freshman is just a girl with a rather miserable life. If she hadn't encountered these bad things, she might be as sunny and cheerful as other girls of her age, maybe even a little lively.

Pity.

Feeling helpless in his heart, Schneider took a deep breath and asked Angers: "I understand the principal, so what should I do? Fengjian Liuli is my student now, how can I help her?"

Ange just scratched his head when he heard this: "Help? She doesn't need help. She has already solved the problem by herself. I believe our lovely girl can get out of it by herself."

"And what we need to do is give her a task."

The old man handed Schneider a stack of information as he spoke. "She would feel uncomfortable if she suddenly left the high-pressure environment. In this case, let her go on the mission. It should be better for her to be relieved. She needs to slowly adapt to normal life."

Schneider took the stack of information and frowned after just a glance, his tone somewhat puzzled: "What is this?"

"A bidding task called Hunter website is offering a reward. It seems that someone has found traces of dragons in an ancient tomb. That person wants to find out what is inside. The reward is very generous. Many hybrids have already accepted the task."

"I think this matter is not that simple. The college needs to send a specialist to check it out. Let her go out and relax. Maybe she can meet some interesting people."

Schneider was a little hesitant. Although Fengjian Liuli was powerful, she was just a freshman after all. She had only been in school for a few days. It seemed a bit hasty to assign her a task so soon. Last time, he had to send her away because he had no choice, but now he had no necessary reason.

But before he could say what was in his heart, there was a knock on the door of the principal's office. A girl in school uniform stood quietly at the door, her dark eyes like a deep pool.

The sunlight poured in from behind her, as if coating the girl's entire body with a layer of dazzling gold, making her already delicate and beautiful facial features even more attractive. Her skin was as white as a handful of fresh snow, and seemed about to melt in the sunlight at any time.

"Principal, are you looking for me?"

Angers was not surprised by her arrival. He smiled at the girl and said, "Yes, little girl. You have been in school for such a long time and I haven't had a good chat with you yet. So I thought of inviting you to have afternoon tea."

The girl stood in the sun, tilting her head in confusion: "Just drinking tea? Why did I hear that it seemed like I was going to be sent out on a mission? But I'm a freshman, isn't there anyone else available in your hospital? Why do you always catch a sheep and pull it out?"

"Come to think of it, I've only been in school for a few days, and this is already my second mission, Principal. Isn't this intensity a bit too much for a freshman?"

Ange scratched his gray hair and said, "But your father told me to take good care of you, otherwise he would make trouble for me, maybe even come to the academy directly."

He spread his hands helplessly: "In order to avoid trouble, I have to pay more attention to you. You should feel honored to be the student that the principal pays attention to."

The corner of Yuan Zhinv's mouth twitched: "...Thank you for the invitation, I'm not honored at all."
