    Chapter 131

    Yan Yunqing subconsciously used the teleport skill. The one-minute casting time was too long. Yan Yunqing held his breath. If cats had well-developed sweat glands, he would probably be covered in cold sweat by now.

    However, he was only startled for a few seconds and quickly reacted. In terms of level, he was even higher than this “Demitrius,” so what did he have to be afraid of?

    Yan Yunqing ground his teeth and counted down the teleport timer, while also seeing what this “Demitrius” was planning to do.

    However, “Demitrius” didn’t make any move. Until the moment Yan Yunqing was teleported away, he didn’t rush up to do anything to Yan Yunqing.

    He successfully landed at the portable anchor point he had installed in Buma City.

    Yan Yunqing: …

    Yan Yunqing relaxed his tense nerves and suddenly thought of something.

    Wait, did this guy really see him?

    Could it be another probing move?! No? Are you a true method actor? Performing without props?

    Yan Yunqing twitched his lips, gaining a deeper understanding of “Demitrius,” who shared his roommate’s name.

    He’s a guy who likes to put on a show anywhere, anytime.

    If it’s confirmed to be his roommate, then it’s truly a “show anywhere, anytime.”

    Yan Yunqing canceled the disguise, restored his original appearance, and stroked his chin. Hmm… Should he go back and test the waters?

    No sooner said than done!

    Yan Yunqing checked himself to make sure there was nothing that would reveal he had been following Demetrius, and went straight to the academy.

    He’s in the city, and that “Demitrius” is outside the city. If Yan Yunqing goes back at full speed now, “Demitrius” couldn’t possibly return to the dormitory faster than him.

    If he can confirm that Demetrius isn’t in the dormitory, then he can basically consider the two as the same person.

    Yan Yunqing quickened his pace. Relying on having enough points, he didn’t wait for other temporarily teamed-up students to use the teleportation array together and teleported into the academy alone.

    In order to return to the dormitory faster, Yan Yunqing simply took the wildest of the Little Whites.

    Before his butt was even settled on the seat, the Little White had already launched like a rocket, and a very obvious sense of push-back came from his back. Yan Yunqing subconsciously grabbed the handle above his head, and the next second his whole body bounced up.

    “Thump—”

    Yan Yunqing hugged his head.

    “Bang!”

    His unsecured body leaned forward, and he plastered his face against the seat in front with a *plop*.

    Yan Yunqing: …

    He felt that he should give teacher Ma Wei, the creator of the Little Whites, a suggestion. It’s interesting that the different Little Whites have their own personalities, but this is a bit too unique.

    If that doesn’t work, add a seat belt to the car. Won’t the passengers fly out while driving?

    Oh right, he seemed to have heard before that a senior was thrown out while riding a Little White and stayed in the hospital for a long time?

    Thinking of this, Yan Yunqing immediately grabbed the handle tightly, lest he fly out like that senior. The external training is about to start, and he hasn’t even completed the task of making a splash yet! He can’t get injured!

    With lightning speed, the Little White stopped in the villa district. Yan Yunqing got out of the Little White dizzily, his steps faltering.

    Yan Yunqing leaned on the bench by the road, gagging twice, his face blank.

    Robin passed by, shocked: “Captain, what’s wrong with you?”

    Yan Yunqing was dizzy and slow to react, “Huh?”

    He staggered, and Robin quickly supported him. Seeing Yan Yunqing covering his stomach and gagging, he blurted out in a flash of inspiration, “Whose is it?”

    Yan Yunqing:?

    Robin realized what he had said, laughed sheepishly twice, and made up for it: “Ah haha, I mean, father and son safe?”

    Yan Yunqing: …

    Yan Yunqing pushed Robin away, speechless: “Be serious.”

    Robin is good at everything, but his personality is too jumpy, and his thought process is also very strange. Even his sister Rowena, who came from the same village, doesn’t understand what Robin is thinking sometimes.

    Robin chuckled and pulled out a piece of hawthorn cake from somewhere and stuffed it into Yan Yunqing’s hand, “I’m just kidding. I just saw you get off the No. 4 Little White. Eat something sour to suppress it. It’s not good for your body to throw up.”

    Yan Yunqing took a look. This hawthorn cake was sold by a restaurant on the south side of the academy. It tastes very good and is very popular among students, but it’s limited every day. If you go late, it’s gone.

    With Yan Yunqing’s daily busyness, he has only eaten it twice in the past month, and one of them was brought to him by Quinn. That guy doesn’t know if he was affected by a debuff, but his attitude towards him is particularly attentive.

    Yan Yunqing stuffed the hawthorn cake into his mouth, took a bite, and the sweet and sour, soft and glutinous taste instantly filled his entire mouth.

    Seeing Yan Yunqing take the first bite, Robin’s smile became even brighter and stretched out his hand: “One point, please.”

    Yan Yunqing: …

    Yan Yunqing choked and almost coughed.

    Yan Yunqing speechlessly transferred one hundred points to Robin, “You profiteer, you still want points for a piece of hawthorn cake?”

    Robin suddenly received a huge sum of money and was very happy: “It’s still the captain. The last time William and I did this, he would only tell me to get lost.”

    Yan Yunqing rolled his eyes and transferred another three thousand points to him, anyway, he had too many points to spend, “Take these to buy supplies. I remember some of the potions are quite expensive?”

    Some magic potions and materials can be ordered from the academy. Some students from not-so-wealthy families will work and study to make some potions and sell them to the academy. The academy will also arrange for some teachers to make some advanced magic medicines and alchemy items for sale every month, and these can only be purchased with points.

    Robin’s business is to skip the academy platform, directly contact the students and teachers who sell them, and help them sell items, only charging 5% of the academy platform’s handling fee.

    It can be said that Robin is a commercial genius. His business in Sigrit Academy is thriving. Yan Yunqing really suspects that he hasn’t been able to advance to the second grade in a few years not because his magic talent is not good enough, but simply because he wasted his time figuring out how to do business in Sigrit.

    This time, the logistics items that Robin prepared for Team A were also obtained through his own connections, and he has not yet asked Yan Yunqing for funds, looking like he is going to bear it himself.

    After all, Robin initially joined the team with the intention of being able to do logistics for the team.

    Robin received another huge transfer and was stunned, looking at Yan Yunqing with sparkling eyes.

    “Captain—I’m willing to use a gender reassignment potion for you every day!”

    The huge points blinded Robin’s eyes. He looked at Yan Yunqing affectionately. In his eyes, the handsome and heroic captain seemed to have turned into a golden, glittering, big point.

    Yan Yunqing leaned back tactically, one hand Hold on and rejected Robin’s clinging, “I politely decline. Compared to a gender reassignment potion, I might prefer you to use a transformation potion to become a little bird.”

    After all, Little Robin should be a little bird!

    Little Robin paused, suddenly realizing: “So, Captain, you like this kind of thing!”

    Yan Yunqing: …?

    Where did this guy’s thoughts go?

    After chatting with Robin for a while, Yan Yunqing was no longer dizzy, and he gnawed the hawthorn cake in two or three bites, patted the crumbs on his hands, and waved to Robin, “I’m going back.”

    Robin bowed respectfully to the big rich man, and even took out a handkerchief and waved it, “Captain, take your time, Captain, come often!”

    Yan Yunqing twitched his lips, noticed the gazes of the people around him, and couldn’t help but cover his face.

    So embarrassing…

    Yan Yunqing quickened his pace and almost ran to get out of Robin’s sight.

    Little Robin blinked his eyes, the corners of his mouth rising.

    Oh, captain is so cute.

    *

    Yan Yunqing ran back to the dormitory at the fastest speed in his life, opened the door with his key, and quickly rushed in, so fast that it seemed like there were ghosts chasing him!

    Yan Yunqing took a few rough breaths, and when he looked up, he saw Demetrius walking out of the bathroom on the first floor, exuding a burst of heat, one hand holding a towel hanging around his neck, wiping his dripping hair.

    Huh?

    “Did the bathroom in your room break again?” Yan Yunqing blurted out.

    Demitrius paused in his hand wiping his hair and nodded silently, “Yeah, it’s broken.”

    Demitrius’ temperament changed back again, still the same taciturn, seemingly a little damp, but gentle and kind roommate.

    Yan Yunqing’s gaze swept over his wet hair, and he asked without a trace, “Did you just finish training?”

    After being Demetrius’ roommate for a month, Yan Yunqing also figured out some of his habits. Demetrius is different from ordinary magicians. He often does some physical training, but not very often.

    Each time after using the underground training room, he will take a shower and then come out with a wet head to drink iced goat’s milk.

    Sure enough, Demetrius walked towards the water bar, and when he heard Yan Yunqing’s question, he nodded again, took out a can of goat’s milk, and his fingertips touched the surface of the goat’s milk can. Yan Yunqing felt a burst of magical power fluctuations, and suddenly a layer of frost covered the surface of the goat’s milk can.

    He opened the can of goat’s milk, raised his head, took a sip, and his eyes narrowed.

    There were no excessive movements, and the surrounding temperament was no different, but Yan Yunqing could see a sense of satisfaction on his face.

    Completely different from the “Demitrius” he met in Buma City!

    Yan Yunqing hesitated: Could this really be the same person? Could it just be the same name? Or is his cheat bugged…?

    “Did you go out today?” Yan Yunqing asked again casually, “I seemed to see someone in Buma City today whose back view was similar to yours, but by the time I chased after him, he was gone. I was thinking that if it was you, we could go and pick out the supplies to take to the external training together.”

    Demitrius was stunned by Yan Yunqing’s probing and shook his head: “No.”

    After thinking about it, he added, “I’ve been training.”

    He pointed in the direction of the underground training room, and Yan Yunqing also felt that Demetrius didn’t need to lie to him. After all, the image he had when he met “Demitrius” today was either Joker or a little black cat.

    So, the “Demitrius” he met in Buma City was a coincidence?

    Hmm… Maybe Demetrius is a very common name in this world?

    Yan Yunqing didn’t see it, and Demetrius, who lowered his head again, had a dark light flashing in his eyes.
