“What should we eat today?”
“No milk tea?”
“Can milk tea be a meal?”
“Nothing tastes good.”
The three Moteifei sisters casually shook hands with the principal, then turned around, pushed the door hard, and walked away.
Only Lingxiang was more honest; she seriously shook hands with the principal, then turned and quickly followed her sisters who had already left, even closing the door gently.
Dorothy sat back down on the luxurious large sofa in the office, took a small sip of tea, and was very satisfied with her plan.
Why split up the four sisters?
The reason was simple: the combination of their spell sets made them almost unbeatable among apprentices.
They couldn’t get any training that way; no matter how many easy matches they played, they would remain mere apprentices.
They had to separate these four chaotic little devils and let them level up on their own.
That night, the Moteifei sisters all had insomnia.
The night outside the window was thick as ink, silent, making the long night even harder to endure.
They each lay on their own beds, eyes open, thoughts tangled like a mess.
The principal’s words from the day kept replaying in their minds, worrying about tomorrow’s troubles and disturbing their peace.
However, the eldest, third, and fourth sisters quickly entered a meditative state, absorbing the magic power of heaven and earth to increase their maximum Magic Power Value.
They were only being sent down to an Esper organization to crush some weaklings tomorrow, and Fuling and Lingxiang were a duo who could look out for each other, so they were not worried at all.
In the end, the second sister, Yulian, felt the worst.
She tossed and turned, unable to meditate peacefully, so she decided to get up and study magic.
She was going to join the Student Council, a high-end organization composed entirely of mages.
And the president had been beaten by them, so the difficulty of winning him over was much greater than that of the other two sisters.
Yulian baby, so miserable.
Dawn came, sunlight pouring into the room through the gaps in the curtains.
Today everyone would go their separate ways, each taking a different path, no longer walking side by side as before.
However, Laige Fuling and Laige Lingxiang had the same destination; they could go to school together.
Although it was just the fourth sister quietly following the third sister, maintaining a distance of three meters, Fuling knew but said nothing, and this already made Lingxiang very happy.
As for the eldest and second sisters, they could only rely on themselves.
Laige Caicai carefully tidied up her appearance, then left the high-end residential complex reserved for mages.
She needed to cross a dense cluster of teaching buildings, then pass through a wide sports field.
On the way, she bought breakfast and a cup of milk tea, and after walking for a while, she finally arrived in front of a special building hidden beside the school gate.
That was a square building hidden among a grove of trees, but its standout structure made it particularly conspicuous.
And this was the [Internal Affairs Building] of Demon Academy City.
The main duty of the Internal Affairs Department was to maintain order in Academy City, including not only the campus but also the urban areas outside.
But in reality, it handled more of the city’s disturbances and crimes; the academy itself rarely had any trouble.
Demon Academy only occupied about one-fifth of the area here.
The remaining four-fifths constituted a vast area called “Demon City.”
This city was equipped with ultra-complete living facilities to meet the daily needs of residents, and more importantly, it gathered a large number of professional training institutions for Espers, as well as a wide variety of Esper item stores, forming a comprehensive ecosystem for Esper learning, growth, and living.
Therefore, most residents of Demon City were Esper examinees trying to get into Demon Academy, but many were ordinary people hoping to awaken abilities.
The most common thing in Demon City was fraudsters.
They were everywhere, setting traps to cheat money using various methods.
The prevalence of fraudsters not only disrupted order but also easily led to violent incidents, and Espers were highly prone to causing serious crimes.
So the main duty of the Internal Affairs Department was to work closely with the city’s mobile units, responsible for investigating and arresting Esper criminals.
When a crime involving abilities occurred in the city, the Internal Affairs Department would quickly intervene to maintain safety and order, and they also had routine patrols.
Listening to this sounded interesting.
Laige Caicai really enjoyed this kind of plot development toward urban crime.
Her Air Slash would rust if it didn’t taste blood soon.
“Why is no one here?”
But when Laige Caicai, slurping her milk tea and eating a baked cake, leisurely walked into the Internal Affairs Building, she found it dead silent, not a ghost in sight.
The spacious hall was empty, with only the echo of her own footsteps.
Patter! Patter! Patter! Patter!
But soon, a series of extremely hurried footsteps sounded from the stairs on the second floor, dense and rapid like a sudden rain beating the ground.
In the blink of an eye, a large group of white-clad Esper apprentices quickly and neatly rushed down the stairs.
They moved in unison, expressions serious, their footsteps echoing in the empty hall.
‘Are they trying to intimidate me?’
Laige Caicai muttered to herself, but her slacker attitude did not change.
At worst, she would just activate Air Slash and break through.
The leader was a black-haired young man in a sharp white suit.
He was tall and straight, with a strong face and distinct features.
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle’s, and his straight sword-like eyebrows added to his heroic aura.
The man exuded an undeniable sense of justice and an awe-inspiring presence from the inside out—a natural leader.
With his looks, he seemed like the honest and reliable hero type.
Of course, he could also be a modern-day Yue Buqun in human skin—unable to tell yet.
At the same time, Laige Caicai noticed Lu Xiya hiding behind the crowd, standing far back, in a low position, with dodging eyes.
“Welcome, Miss Moteifei. I’ve heard so much about you. I am Sevi Odota, Minister of Internal Affairs.”
The black-haired young man greeted her seriously, clearly trying his best to force a smile and extending his hand.
Laige Caicai didn’t say a word.
She first placed her milk tea and baked cake on the counter nearby, then slowly took out a pair of black silk gloves from her pocket, put them on at a snail’s pace, and only then lightly shook hands with Minister Sevi, looking a bit disgusted.
Minister Sevi’s expression stiffened a bit.
Who knew what he was thinking inside?
The atmosphere was a bit low.
The others didn’t even dare to breathe loudly.
“Miss Moteifei, this is a gift we prepared for you.”
Minister Sevi forced another smile, took a brocade box from a subordinate beside him, and opened it with great ceremony.
This dumbfounded the thirteen executive team leaders behind him.
Knowing the minister’s temper, how could he still smile in the face of such humiliation?
