"Mr. Jack, it's really you!"
Lucy didn't seem overly surprised, but rather her face was filled with joy.
She couldn't help but take two steps forward, but she suppressed her excitement in time and stopped where she was, with her burning gaze fixed on the gentleman in the black hat from beginning to end.
Just as Lucy was about to continue speaking, she suddenly noticed that the girl Ahsoka beside her was trembling all over, in an extremely abnormal state.
She turned her head and saw that the little girl was pale and staring at Mr. Jack in horror, muttering:
"Evil... Devil..."
Lucy was a little surprised, she didn't know why Ahsoka looked so scared, as if she had known Mr. Jack before.
Polaris and Sunny Rain, who were standing aside, looked at each other blankly. From the current situation, it seemed that these two new students both knew Mr. Jack, but their reactions were completely different.
A surprise, a shock.
It's a rather eerie sense of déjà vu.
"Don't stand, come and sit down."
The gentleman in the black hat spoke calmly with a faint smile.
His words seemed to have some kind of magic, and the four students present dared not disobey. Even Ahsoka resisted the urge to turn around and run away. She trembled, lowered her head obediently, and sat on the sofa with the others.
Her mind was blank at the moment. She buried her head in her cloak like a quail, not daring to look up at the "devil". She didn't know what kind of horrible thing she would face next...
"I'm sorry, Lucy. I've been so busy lately that I didn't realize so much has been going on."
Chen Lun didn't pay much attention to the shivering Ahsoka. He first turned his head to look at Lucy, who was becoming more and more beautiful, and said apologetically.
As she went further and further into the mysterious realm and became a mid-sequence transcendent… her temperament became more prominent, and beneath her original seductive beauty, she gained a sense of tranquility and elegance.
What Chen Lun found commendable was that Lucy was able to advance to the middle sequence and enter St. Byron College for further studies on her own without much intervention or help from him. It was a remarkable thing.
After all, before she met me, she was just a low-level thief who had not received much education.
"It's okay, Mr. Jack. Lucy is already satisfied to see you again..."
A smile appeared on Lucy's pretty face.
But for some reason, she felt a surge of sadness in her heart.
It's like a kitten that has been abandoned for a long time, and suddenly meets its owner who has a change of heart at the corner of the street.
Chen Lun sensed grievance in her words, but he could only sigh inwardly and then smiled:
"Mrs. Julie has introduced you to me in detail. It seems that you are not only very diligent in studying mysticism, but also have some knowledge of social sciences. This is good... You can continue to study with me in the future."
Although he did not have any knowledge above the sequence among the stars.
But he has money...
When Principal Hugo comes back from his "business trip" in a while, Chen Lun plans to find an opportunity to talk to her, and then donate a large sum of money to the college to exchange for the extraordinary knowledge of the galaxy.
By the way, it can offset the knowledge that Lucy received from the academy.
Of course, it doesn’t matter if the other party doesn’t want to accept money. I still have knowledge from other sources that can be used in exchange... I believe that the Madman School will not refuse the temptation of knowledge.
Chen Lun lacks everything except money and knowledge.
Lucy was overjoyed and said in surprise, covering her mouth:
"Thank you, Mr. Jack!"
After briefly reminiscing about the past with her, Chen Lun turned his attention to Ahsoka. Seeing her extreme fear of him, he couldn't help but smile... Perhaps the impression that he was a devil was hard to get rid of in her mind.
In fact, to be honest, the three Moiner royal family members who were taken away by him were not executed by the empire. Instead, they were arranged to live well in the royal city.
But Chen Lun was too lazy to explain to her and just asked:
"How is your father, Mr. Tiha, doing now?"
"Please... please don't hurt my father, please..."
Ahsoka was shocked when she heard this, and then she looked up and said pleadingly. The three students next to her were surprised, wondering what Mr. Jack had done to make this little girl so scared.
"Just asking, it's okay if you don't want to tell me."
Chen Lun shook his head and said indifferently.
Maybe it was because of his high charisma that made him so approachable, or because Ahsoka saw that he had no ill intentions at the moment, she was silent for a moment, then she said hesitantly:
"Father is living a good life. He often laments that the present life is rare and should be cherished... But a few uncles always want father to go back or persuade him to take us to live in the Kingdom of Beelzebub."
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
Kneel down and lick the Rose Royal Family's Pi Yanzi, and then carry out a restoration
Ahsoka's uncles are either not in their right minds or can't stand their current dull life... After all, it's easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it's difficult to go from luxury to frugality.
How can one be content with being ordinary when one is used to enjoying wealth, power and status
Chen Lun couldn't help but shake his head. He had neither the time nor the interest to get involved in Ahsoka's family affairs. He asked just now only out of curiosity.
"You can stay with me and learn magic knowledge from now on... If you want to protect your family from trouble, you have to master powerful power. This so-called power can be power, status, or money, or it can be a great power beyond the mundane world."
Chen Lun said this calmly, in order to stimulate Ahsoka's motivation to study.
"Now that you have lost the first three powers given to you in the past, the only way out for you is to pursue knowledge, Ahsoka... Knowledge is power, and it can help you get the life you want."
"is that so… "
Ahsoka showed a confused expression and then dropped her eyes.
Although she was introverted and timid, and usually didn't even dare to speak loudly to others, she still had deep hatred for her family elders in her heart... Whether it was their various instigations against her father and mother, or their more than one attempt to use her as a bargaining chip in exchange for some so-called benefits, Ahsoka had secretly felt disgusted, but she lacked the courage and capital to resist.
If we really follow what this gentleman said, perhaps things can turn out differently...
Ahsoka bit her lower lip, suppressing her fear of the professor, and whispered:
"Jack... Teacher, I will study hard beside you, thank you for being willing to teach me..."
Chen Lun nodded with satisfaction.
At this time.
A hurried figure came to the door, making a loud noise. Everyone turned around and saw a tall blond young man sticking his head in.
He has a handsome appearance, three-dimensional features, and his light green eyes reveal a lively and curious look.
"Sorry, Professor, I seem to be late."
The young man stood at the door with a smile on his face, scratching his head.
"Felice Anno?"
Chen Lun glanced at the guy and asked calmly.
"Yes, Professor Jack, I am Felice Annomelt... I am very happy to have passed your selection. I will definitely learn magic knowledge from you in the future!"
"I don't really care whether you will study hard or not."
Chen Lun said indifferently.
"Before that, could you please explain why you are late?"
"Forehead… "
The blond youth was speechless for a moment, and finally said distressedly:
"I happened to meet Mr. Ruber, the professor of Byron's General History, on the way. He said that the homework I handed in was too perfect and didn't look like I had done it myself... Huh?"
Having said that, he suddenly noticed that among the young people sitting in the living room, there happened to be the white-haired girl who helped him with his homework.
Felice Novo was stunned at first, then showed a surprised expression.
"Why are you here too?"
"Uh, I'm also Mr. Jack's student. You have to call me senior from now on, Felice-san."
Sunny Rain glanced at the gentleman in the black hat, and then said seriously. Felice Noa opened his mouth slightly, not expecting such a coincidence.
He then laughed and called her "senior sister".
There was a mist in Chen Lun's eyes as he glanced at the blond young man, and he instantly saw through the other party's fate.
"It is indeed a sign of human intervention, but the method is quite clumsy... Either someone of high destiny is behind this, or this guy is being influenced by a strange object that contains the power of destiny."
Chen Lun thought to himself.
"If it's the former, it's most likely a Sequence 4 clown of the same level as me... According to the law of supernatural fusion, it makes sense. After all, the same path will attract each other, especially when you reach a high level."
He secretly planned to observe for a while to see what Feliceano was like... If there was indeed someone behind him, when the time was right, he could use the mysterious power to crush him and use divination to lock the other party's position...
Then he flew over and smashed her to pieces on the spot!
As for why we do this...
"My goal is to reach the zero position of the Destiny Sequence. Only by becoming a god can I have enough power to kill the Seven Gods...Except for His Majesty Oscar, I will kill all the other high-ranking people in the Destiny Sequence when I see them!"
Chen Lun's indifferent eyes seemed extremely deep.
Felice Anno felt his whole body go numb when he was stared at by him. He coughed awkwardly, shuddered, and asked cautiously:
"Um... Professor, can I go in first? It's too cold standing at the door, haha, ha."
Chen Lun retracted his gaze and nodded slightly.
"Come in, and close the door."
"Okay, no problem, Professor."
Felice Anno laughed quickly.
He stamped his feet to shake off the snow water on the soles of his shoes, then walked in and closed the apartment door gently with his backhand.
As if he was born to be outgoing, he came over casually, sat on the sofa, and said:
"To make up for my lateness, I would like to invite Professor Jack and four of my fellow students to dinner at the Zoltan Hotel..."
Polaris and Sunny Rain weren't too familiar with the environment yet, but Lucy and Ahsoka both looked surprised.
The Zuoertan Hotel is not far from the college and is also located in the center of Tus-Port. It is one of the top three high-end places in the Hewan District. Enjoying a top-notch dinner there would probably be very expensive, at least hundreds of Lanjiabo.
Lucy knew how hard it was to make money and didn't want to let the classmate she just met spend this money in vain, but she didn't dare to make the decision for Mr. Jack, so she sensibly remained silent.
"It's too expensive there, so forget it."
Chen Lun chuckled.
"It's okay, it's just a meal, it won't cost much... I'm mainly happy to be able to learn mysterious knowledge from Professor Jack, and there are four brothers and sisters who hit it off right away. I'll treat you to this meal! By the way, I'd like to apologize for being late just now, hehe."
Felice Nou smiled nonchalantly.
Lucy and Ahsoka both developed a slight liking for this guy because of his enthusiasm and cheerfulness. Even the two players, Polaris and Sunny Rain, felt that this guy was suitable to be friends with.
"In that case, let's go."
Chen Lun smiled and shook his head. This student didn't look like someone who was short of money, so he agreed indifferently.
The five students he taught gathered together. This was their first formal meeting and it was worth celebrating. He rarely went to the library, but chose to accept Felice Nou's kindness and go to the hotel together.
