For the past few days, anyone in the student council with a discerning eye could tell that Jessica seemed to be a little uneasy.
It had been a whole week since that chaotic morning, but the female officer's condition had not improved at all. In fact, Jessica had been a little absent-minded recently. She had been catching the boys who had sneaked into the female dormitory at night to play poker. When those guys saw her, they immediately jumped out of the window and escaped. Jessica had subconsciously released a grade two water arrow.
Fortunately, the male partner beside her reacted quickly enough and pulled her back at the critical moment. The water arrow finally brushed past the hair of one of the guys and flew out. That guy was so scared that he actually peed his pants on the spot.
The others also had a look of horror on their faces. What the hell? When did the disciplinary department change the rules? Playing cards in the female dormitory could be directly executed?
Jessica's partner was also shocked when he saw this and almost cursed out loud. However, when he remembered that the person in front of him was his immediate superior, he could only tactfully say, "Minister, I think it would be better for you to apply for leave from the council for the next few days."
Jessica shook her head. "I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me. I won't go on leave until I find those two guys."
Her partner wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he sighed and decided to tell the truth. "Actually, I'm not just worried about you. Minister, you can't even work in your current state. If I didn't pull you back just now, you would have already killed someone. Also, I don't understand why you have such great interest in finding those two guys who escaped. Logically speaking, shouldn't the person we should be looking for the most right now be the organizer of the mysterious game? I will never forget what he did to me for the rest of my life. "
The male magician clenched his teeth. In the first round of the game, he was completely suppressed by the future supreme magus Your Honor and was tragically eliminated. The guy who called himself Ellista had warned all the participants of the game that they would be punished if they failed. The male magician had always been vigilant, but it was of no use. Not long after he was surrounded by the thick fog, he felt dizzy and his eyelids became heavier and heavier. After struggling for a while, he finally fainted. When he woke up again, he discovered that someone had already drawn a little turtle on his face.
It was a very childish graffiti. The drawing was extremely clumsy, as if it was the work of a naughty child. Not knowing if it was intentional or not, he had even drawn an extra leg to make the turtle look even more ridiculous. But that was not the point. The point was that the guy who did this was very special. The twelve people who were drawn found that no matter how they washed, they could not wash the graffiti off their faces.
Later, the teacher who taught magic materials also came to take a look and told them that the paint might have been mixed with something called bone butterfly powder. The bad news was that unless they cut off their skin, there was no way to remove the little turtle from their faces at this stage. The good news was that the bone butterfly powder would evaporate. Even if they did nothing, the little turtle would disappear on its own after a week.
So for the next week, the male magician could only put the little turtle on his face. He felt that no matter where he went, there would be people whispering behind his back. Everyone who saw him had to hold back their laughter. This matter had seriously affected his normal life, and it was driving him crazy.
It wasn't until a week later that the little turtle on his face disappeared that he gradually returned to normal. However, the incident had already happened, and it was impossible for anyone to forget it so quickly. He also felt very embarrassed. Now, whenever someone mentioned the word turtle, he would feel restless. Therefore, he swore to catch the organizer of the game.
He originally thought that Jessica had the same goal as him, but now it seemed that she was more interested in catching the two masked men who escaped.
Jessica didn't know why, but she didn't tell the others, including Mr. Xavier, about what happened at the bottom of the lake that night.
She especially didn't mention the fight between the guy in the bubble and the baby-faced monster. She only said that when she was chasing the two people in the water, she saw the monster, and then lost them.
After hearing her description of the monster, Xavier's expression became unprecedentedly serious. Without saying anything, he directly sealed off the entire area. When Headmaster Foreman also arrived, the two of them worked together to conduct a thorough search of the manmade lake.
In the end, be it the masked men or the baby-faced monster, they were all gone. Xavier even used a level-seven spell to separate all the water from the lake and send it above his head, but he only found two magic circles at the bottom of the lake. Seeing the two magic circles, Foreman's expression changed slightly. He stopped Xavier who was planning to follow the magic circles. "Let's stop here for today. Leave the rest to me."
Xavier nodded. "Be careful, too. According to the boy's description, the monster in the lake is very likely to be Erinia as recorded in the Holy Bible. That kind of ferocious monster is a disaster in the school."
"Okay," Foreman replied casually. Looking at the two magic circles, no one knew what he was thinking.
The Student Union first did a headcount of the whole school and found that there were two empty beds in the Rogue Faculty. They immediately became nervous, but it turned out to be a false alarm.
In the morning, the two sneaked back to school. They were a young couple who had tasted the forbidden fruit for the first time. When they came back, they were shocked to see the situation outside the dormitory.
Jessica was a little disappointed, but she didn't make things too difficult for them. She gave them a verbal warning and let them go. As a result, the Student Union was busy all morning, but they didn't find anything substantial. The female officer wanted to further search everyone's luggage, but her request was denied by the President. Even the Student Union couldn't casually search the personal belongings of students without a sufficient reason.
However, Jessica didn't give up. She later went to Raphael's Library. In the eyes of the male Magician, his partner was completely obsessed with this matter. He had tried to persuade Jessica more than once, but it seemed that it was useless. Just now, she almost killed a guy who was playing cards in the female dormitory.
The male Magician had made up his mind. When he went back, he would write a report on what happened today. He believed that this was the most responsible choice for Jessica.
The female officer seemed to know what he was thinking. She shook her head and said, "It's not like that. I don't care how you explain it to the higher-ups. Anyway, I will not give in on this matter. If the Student Union doesn't support me, then I will investigate it myself."
After the incident, Jessica spent a whole day in Raphael's Library. During that day, she found a lot of things, such as the name and origin of the baby-faced monster, the light gun that injured it, the light wall on her body, and the shackles that fell from the sky. These were all real level-5 spells … The more she looked, the more shocked she was, and the more curious she became about the monster.
