Noland Advanced Magic Academy.
Sansa's class ended as the Voodoo Inscription Attack and Defense Course was dismissed.
"This time, I finally managed to grab a ticket to the VIP seats."
"Didn't you just go a few days ago?"
"I don't mind watching it again."
Sansa sat in the classroom that looked like a witch's hut and listened to her classmates' discussions.
They were talking about the movie "Beauty and the Devil."
In the few days since the movie had been released, Sansa could hear people talking about it no matter where she sat in the academy.
Every time she heard them talk about it, Sansa felt a little proud because she and her friend Herland were one of the first people to watch the movie.
When Sansa went to watch the movie, it was as if she had booked the entire theater. There were not many people around, unlike now, where it took a long time to get a ticket.
A few days ago, when Sansa told her classmates, they didn't believe her. They said that the Black Swan movie was the only one worth watching.
Fortunately, Sansa was so generous that she "recommended" a few tickets to her friends.
The result was that watching "Beauty and the Devil" had become a trend in the academy. Those who hadn't watched it before couldn't join the conversation at all.
"Don't you need to work at the Patent Council today?"
Herland, who was sitting next to Sansa, flashed with silver Glyphs of Order. He cast a spell that was similar to Magus's Hand.
The bottles and jars on the ancient table floated up and were placed back into the cupboard by the side of the classroom by Herland's side.
"Today is my church's prayer day. Of course I don't have to work."
Sansa made a praying gesture with her fingers interlocked. As a citizen of the Holy Church, she had to pray to the God of Light and Justice one day a week.
This was also another way to enhance one's magic power in the inscription system other than meditation.
"Let's go back then."
Herland glanced at the other people in the classroom. Ever since she met Josiah, it wasn't just her life, her sister Hiri's life, even the people around her had been affected by Josiah.
In Josiah's words, this influence was … 'trendy'. 'Beauty and the Devil' seemed to have become a trend among the youngsters in Noland. Some of the girls in Noland had begun to look like Belle.
The one who was affected the most was Sansa, the friend in front of her.
"Don't you feel cheated? You spent money to buy the entrance to the theater, but in the end, you couldn't even see the actors in person, only the images left behind by the actors? "
But not everyone could adapt to the trend. Among Herland's classmates, there were also people who couldn't accept the movie format, such as Young Master Ricard, who had once invited Herland to watch a Black Swan performance.
"But 'Beauty and the Demon' is much more interesting than a stage play!"
Before Sansa could speak, one of the students refuted Young Master Ricard from the Nation of Art.
"You really haven't seen a really good stage play! Only a stage play can allow the audience and actors to fully interact. What you see is just a void. "He argued with someone else.
As someone from the Nation of Art, Falosi, he was a loyal fan of the Falosi Flower. He couldn't accept someone overshadowing his goddess in acting.
Not to mention that this person wasn't an actor, but just an inscription storage unit stored in a raw crystal!
"Let's go, Sansa."
Herland didn't want to get involved in this quarrel. She knew that Young Master Ricard was interested in her, and in fact, there were many boys in the academy who had feelings for her.
But now, other than proving her mother's worth and promoting the magic machine, she had no mood to talk about love.
"Actually, I agree with Rickard."
Sansa followed Herland out of the witch's hut. Outside was a clear lake.
"Agree?"
Herland felt that the few things Josiah had done recently not only shocked the world, but also subtly changed it. Sometimes, that was the scariest thing.
When you didn't know anything, you realized that everyone around you was talking about something in common.
"I can't see the actors."
Sansa kicked a pebble on the ground and it rolled into the lake. She wanted to vent her frustrations by doing so.
"I spent so much money to watch the Black Swan at the National Theater of Noland, but at least I could see the legendary Flower of Falosi in person. The White Thorn Flower Theater's movies are just virtual images."
"You want to say … you want to meet a demon?"
"Not a demon. Fine … even if it is a demon, I don't think … it's bad, right?"
Sansa said uncertainly.
"Look at how infatuated that Demon Prince is. It would be great if I could meet him a few times. Don't worry, I won't be so tasteless as to scream."
"…"
After interacting with Josh for so long, Herland more or less knew that Josh's identity wasn't as simple as an "ordinary traveler". In fact, Herland had always had a terrifying guess, but she just didn't want to think about it.
Sansa seemed to want to do something about it.
"Should I remind you which country you're from and what you believe in?"
Herland couldn't believe that a citizen of the Holy Church would say something like "demons aren't bad".
As they chatted, Herland and Sansa arrived at the elementary division of the magic academy.
"Miss Herland."
Ino walked out of the primary division's research hall and saw the tall, silver-haired Herland at first glance.
"Who … is she?"
Sansa was immersed in her fantasies of meeting the actors from "Beauty and the Demon" when she noticed Ino suddenly walking over.
Sansa looked at Ino, who was wearing a pair of wood-framed glasses. Why did he look so familiar?
"You don't recognize me? I think you'll lose control if I tell you, so I'll keep my answer to myself. "
Herland shook his head and didn't expose Ino's identity. Since Ino and Herland were in the same magic academy, Josiah asked Herland to take care of Ino.
If they were discovered by the Holy Army, Herland, a level-three Magician, could help Ino escape or inform Josiah through the chat window.
"Young sorcerer's apprentice, can you tell me your name?"
Sansa used her usual method of flirting with other girls. Ino looked so familiar that Sansa was sure she had seen her somewhere before.
"Let's talk about this on the way back. In half an hour, this place will be the griffin's territory."
Herland didn't like the half-eagle, half-lion creatures. Even though they were the dream mounts of many knights, the griffins of this advanced magic academy had terrible tempers.
"Sure."
"Isn't your home over there?" Herland pointed in a direction that was completely different from hers.
