Yin Yang School, Principal's Room.
It was an office located on the top floor of the school building.
Rozen and Natsume took the elevator up from the bottom floor and stepped into the corridor, heading in the direction of the Principal's Room.
Walking down such a corridor, not only Natsume, but even Rozen was looking around and observing the unfamiliar environment.
Although they hadn't gone to the classroom yet and couldn't confirm what the rest of the place looked like, at the very least, the decorations on the top floor of the school building were very simple. There were only exhibition items that looked like spells or spell props, such as armors and helmets hanging on the wall, blackened staffs, gold-threaded robes, Japanese swords with seals, and so on. It felt like a museum.
The glass cabinets that displayed these items were not stained at all, nor was there a speck of dust on the floor. The foliage plants that were placed around the room had been well taken care of and were very clean.
However, the ones who took care of these things were probably not the staff of Yin Yang School, but the Spirit-branded Retainers.
Since the guards at the door were high-level artificial mecha type Spirit-branded Retainers, the daily affairs of the school would probably be handled by the Spirit-branded Retainers. Not only would this save a lot of hiring fees, but it would also highlight the uniqueness of Yin Yang School. There were many advantages and no disadvantages, so it was impossible not to use them.
Of course, this situation would only occur in Yin Yang School.
Other than Yin Yang School, which was recognized by the Yin Yang Hall and allowed to use spells freely, if one didn't have the professional qualifications to control the Spirit-branded Retainers to do things, they would probably be arrested immediately, right?
"I just don't know who is the source of the spell power for the Spirit-branded Retainers."
It couldn't be that the Principal was the one who provided it, right?
If that happened, the spell power would be quickly depleted, and it would be impossible to continue using it.
Therefore, the one who provided the spell power to the Spirit-branded Retainers was probably the teacher or the students. As long as this job was included in the daily duty, the students would provide the Spirit-branded Retainers with spell power for free. It was the best way to save money.
While Rozen was thinking about that, he brought Natsume, who was a little nervous, to an office at the end of the corridor.
On the door of the office, the words "Principal's Office" were clearly written on a tag, telling Rozen and Natsume that they had arrived at their destination.
"Qiu Guan?"
Natsume looked at Rozen as if he was asking Rozen something.
In this regard, Rozen nodded.
"Knock on the door."
Rozen gave a very brief order.
"Yes."
Natsume nodded and mustered his courage to knock on the door.
"Qiu Guan and Natsume of the Earth Imperial School are here at the request of the schoolmaster."
Natsume reported in a serious manner, allowing his voice to be heard in the room.
This caused a chuckle to be heard in the room.
"Please come in."
Such a voice entered Rozen and Natsume's ears.
Putting Natsume aside, Rozen could feel the vicissitudes of time in the voice.
"Sorry to disturb you."
It was unknown whether Natsume heard it or not, but he opened the door and showed the scene inside to them.
The office in front of them was completely different from the corridor outside.
It was like a coffee shop in the Taisho era, an elegant and retro room.
The walls were a faded cream color.
The floor was covered with a rouge colored carpet.
The tin coat rack was matched with colored glass partitions.
Behind the partitions was a reception area with cat legs and a beige coffee table.
On both sides of the wall were bookshelves filled with an astonishing number of books. From the cover, it could be seen that not only were there foreign books, but there were also Chinese books, ancient books, and even scrolls.
In such a room, in front of the frosted glass window, there was a huge mahogany desk.
Behind the desk, a petite figure sat there, with a dignified posture, an unfathomable smile on her wrinkled face, making her elegant temperament diffuse.
"Welcome to Yin Yang School, children of the main family and branch family."
The petite figure who spoke was an old woman. Her shoulder-length hair was already half white. Despite her advanced age, she had an extraordinary bearing. She wore a pea-colored kimono, and there was a mysterious glint in her eyes as she looked over.
"I am the headteacher of Yin Yang School, Kurahashi Miyo."
The old woman introduced herself in a dignified tone.
Yes.
Kurahashi Miyo.
The old woman in front of them was a member of the Kurahashi family.
She was the biological mother of Genji Kurahashi, the former head of the Kurahashi family, and the current headteacher of Yin Yang School. She had been in charge of Yin Yang School for nearly half a century. She was a well-known person in the spell world and was highly respected by Yin Yang Masters.
Of course, since she was the former head of the Kurahashi family, it was impossible for the other party not to know Rozen and Natsume.
After all, the Kurahashi family was a branch family of the Earth Imperial family. In terms of form, Kurahashi Miyo naturally had to address the next head of the Earth Imperial family, Rozen, as the main family. It was almost impossible not to know him.
And of course, Rozen and Natsume also knew the old woman in front of them.
"Hello, headteacher, I am Natsume of the Earth Imperial family."
Natsume respectfully saluted Kurahashi Miyo.
"I am Qiu Guan of the Earth Imperial family."
Rozen also symbolically showed politeness, bowing his head to Kurahashi Miyo.
In this regard, Kurahashi Miyo just stared at the two, squinting her eyes as if she was dazzled.
"I see."
Kurahashi Miyo muttered to herself.
"It is indeed a very beautiful star, and it will shine brightly in the future, right?"
Kurahashi Miyo said such a thing.
"Star?"
Natsume was slightly surprised.
Rozen also seemed to think of something and said with interest.
"Is this the legendary Star Chant?"
Star Chant.
That was the ability to predict the future by looking at the stars.
Although that ability also belonged to the category of spell, it was a kind of innate talent. In ancient times, it was generally possessed by witches and priests. In modern times, it had almost disappeared, and only a few people had such talent. It could be said to be one of the most precious abilities in the spell world.
In the past, Rozen heard about that ability from Taichun of the Earth Imperial family.
"The former head of the Kurahashi family, the current headteacher of Yin Yang School, used to be a witch and had the ability of Star Chant."
Taichun of the Earth Imperial family mentioned it once, but Rozen remembered it.
Now, Rozen finally saw that ability in person.
However …
"This shouldn't be too rare for you, right? Qiu Guan? "
Kurahashi Miyo looked at Rozen with a smile and said.
"The current head of the Earth Imperial family, your father, he is also a Onmyoji with the ability of Star Chant, don't you know?"
