I, the final BOSS of the beta test server!

She was not worried that Rast would lose control of his mental state. After all, Hiltina had seen him fight the Iron Cross Plague with her own eyes.

However, even Hiltina was unsure about how Last would view Star University and the country of Granville to which the academy belonged.

Dean Yin has some ability to distinguish lies from truth. Now that he has passed this test, there will be no problem with the college and the board of directors.

In other words, Last should not have to be sent to a sanatorium on an uninhabited island, but should be able to successfully enter the Star University.

jingle--

Just then, a crisp ringtone rang, bringing Hiltina back to reality.

She pulled something that looked like a cell phone from her pocket, and the screen automatically unlocked.

After seeing the new message on the screen, Hiltina's expression couldn't help but slightly stiffen.

"Dean Yin, I need to go to the Red Frost Territory immediately."

"A new 'Reverberation of Disaster' has appeared in the Night World passage there, restricting entry to Night Travelers up to Rank Three."

Hiltina paused. "Also, the affinity of that newly appeared Calamity Reverberation seems to be related to the chariot. I plan to advance to the fourth level in that night world."

"You guy."

Dean Yin's lazy look suddenly disappeared: "If I remember correctly, you should have already exceeded your quota for this year."

"Advancing to the fourth tier is far from as easy as the first three tiers. It's a huge watershed. According to Granville Nation statistics, the mortality rate for fourth-tier night world promotion missions... exceeds 60%."

"You should know that being fully prepared, optimizing everything to the best of your abilities, and entering in the most complete state is the safest option."

Hearing Dean Yin's warning, Hiltina smiled.

"I know, Dean Yin."

"But I am the only one of the twelve people at the round table who can be deployed in the academy recently and meets the requirements of the third level."

"Although there are still many extraordinary people in the royal capital...but unless the disaster of the reverberation of the disaster truly spreads to the surrounding areas of the royal capital and affects the vital interests of those nobles, they will definitely not send anyone to support them."

Hiltina said softly, "I don't want the tragedy of my hometown to happen again somewhere else."

Dean Yin narrowed his eyes and looked at Hiltina, and Hiltina also looked at him without giving in.

After a long time, Dean Yin finally gave up and wagged his tail.

"Forget it, I get it. I'll explain it to you at the university."

It resumed its previous lazy demeanor: "Even if I didn't represent Star University to approve it, you would definitely sneak over there on your own."

Xiltina smiled and said, "Thank you so much, Dean Yin. I'll treat you to grilled fish cake when we get back."

"Don't say these useless things. If you can stop causing trouble for me, you will be doing me the greatest favor."

Dean Yin lay down again and continued to eat his dried fish indifferently: "Remember to bring it back with the whole head and tail intact."

"Of course." Hiltina replied with a smile.

She stood up and said softly, "By the way, Dean Yin, I have one more thing I want to ask of you."

"what's up?"

Dean Yin lay motionless on the sofa. "Let me be clear, the strength I'd accumulated from eating two bags of dried fish was drained away just now when I activated 'Moon of Truth'. I can't help you with anything else that requires activating my abilities."

"While I'm away from the academy and heading to the Night World to deal with the reverberations of the disaster, could you, Dean Yin, take care of Rust?"

Shiltina looked at the screen on the tablet. "He's been trapped in the historical remnants of the night world for a long time. The level of civilization there is still stuck at the level of more than a hundred years ago..."

"Laster is unfamiliar with the modern era. I'm a little worried that he might not be able to fit into today's society."

"Oh?"

Hearing Hiltyna's words, Dean Yin narrowed his eyes, his interest rekindled. "First, he used the privileges of the Twelve Seats at the Round Table to help him apply for a special process, and then he even resorted to using up his personal connections to get me to look after him."

"If I remember correctly, this is the first time you, little Tina, have shown such concern for a student."

"This Luster, is he special?"

"Yeah." Hiltina nodded calmly. "If it weren't for Last, I wouldn't have been able to leave Deep Blue Harbor alive."

A hint of doubt flashed in Dean Yin's ruby ​​eyes.

"Even a proud and arrogant little girl like you feels that you can't get out alive..."

"I understand. I'll take care of him for you while you're away."

It shook its furry white tail.

"But you also know that magical creatures have never been very patient, so you must remember to come back quickly to take over from me."

"I understand, Dean Yin."

"Then please allow me to take my leave."

Hiltina stood up, placed her right hand on her left chest, bowed to Dean Yin, and turned to leave.

This time she performed the salute of a knight instead of a noble one.

"These guys are really worrying."

"I don't know what got me so crazy back then. I actually let the old principal trick me into coming to Fanxing University with the promise of free food and accommodation."

Dean Yin mumbled a few words and looked back at the psychological testing room on the tablet. It turned on the microphone and said, "We've examined it thoroughly. Let's finish the next question and we're almost done."

On the other side, in the psychological measurement room, Ishtar also nodded heavily.

As a psychometrician of the Hermit Order, she has always been accustomed to taking the lead and controlling the overall situation in psychological inquiries.

But for some reason, facing Rast, Ishtar felt as awkward as a freshman who had just entered school.

But after looking at the form, she was ready to finish asking the last question at hand.

"You should know that the Night World is very dangerous, right? Why do you still want to join Starry University and continue to enter the Night World as a Night Traveler?"

"It's simple. If I want to live well in this world, I need an identity and money."

Luster replied, "But I also know that there is no gain without pain."

"As the saying goes, the bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish. Since the night world is so dangerous, I imagine your government won't be stingy in providing salaries and benefits."

Ishtar nodded. This was indeed the reason why quite a number of people chose to join Starry University and become Night Travelers.

But according to procedure, she still asked the usual question: "Is that all?"

"Of course, what else can I do?"

Luster spread his hands and smiled.

"It can't be that I dream of becoming a partner of justice and want to use the power of the night world to become stronger and realize my ideal."

……

In another room, Dean Yin's action of rolling up a small dried fish with his tail paused in mid-air.

It looked at the surveillance footage on the screen showing Last answering the last question, with a hint of suspicion in its expression.

In those ruby-like animal eyes, the afterglow of the "Moon of Truth" that had not yet dissipated flashed away.

Chapter 39: Blonde twintails and tsundere are a classic pair

After Dean Yin nodded, the inquiry quickly came to an end.

Ishtar quickly took notes, then packed up her materials and prepared to leave the interrogation room.

She wanted to quickly escape from this place of trouble that had left her with so many bad memories, as well as the new student who had repeatedly caused her trouble and almost shattered her faith.

I will never accept psychological testing from this guy of unknown origin again...Ishtar secretly swore in her heart.

Although according to the intention of the superiors, this newcomer named Last should also join Fanxing University and even become her classmate in the future.

However, as the largest institution of higher learning in the entire country of Granville, Star University is one of the best even in the entire continent.

While there are hundreds of extraordinary people, there are tens of thousands of ordinary students who have not yet stepped into the long stage of sequence and have not become night travelers.

Fanxing University is very big, so big that after the two of them separate this time, they may never meet again.

If you can't afford to offend me, can you still afford to hide?

As soon as this thought arose.

The next moment, Ishtar felt someone following her.

She subconsciously turned her head, and then her twin ponytails, which had been drooping down, suddenly bounced up as if in response.

"Last?"

"Ok?"

Behind her, the black-haired boy was also slightly stunned.

The previous psychological interrogations had always been conducted through a one-way mirror, so Last himself did not know what the woman who had been asking him questions looked like.

However, when he heard a familiar voice, he immediately recognized the identity of the girl with blonde twin tails in front of him. She should be the psychometrician named "Ishtar Julian".

only--

"Laster, the psychological measurement is over."

"There are so many people in this world, can you please stop following me?"

Ishtar crossed her arms over her chest, staring at Rast warily. Her body was wrapped in a beige windbreaker, and the fullness of her chest was about to burst out.

For some reason, when their eyes met, Rast saw that Ishtar's delicate body wrapped in the windbreaker trembled, and a blush spread from her ears to her neck.

It seemed as if he was recalling something shameful.

Whose daughter is this?

There is only one way out from the psychological measurement room. If I don’t follow you, who will I follow?

Even with Last's knowledge, he couldn't help but feel speechless at this moment.

And the other person's mysterious blushing face made people who didn't know think that I had done something too excessive to her.

Although because of his inherent skill "Heart of Iron", when Ishtar used some kind of mental blade to test his spirit, Rast unconsciously fought back.

But from his own experience, it was nothing more than controlling his own mind and devouring a wisp of spiritual energy that invaded from the other party. Was it necessary to have such a big stress reaction?

Of course, what made Last most silent was the "Library of Fools" in his mind.

As Ishtar spoke, he clearly saw the golden card of "Ishtar the Hermit" flash distinctly.

Immediately afterwards, the progress bar for [Bond Level: 1] slowly rose a little.

Wow, it turns out that blonde twintails and tsundere are a classic combination that never goes out of style.

At the same time, Rast also saw the information on the "Hermit" card.

[The Hermit: Ishtar]

[Bond Level: 1]

[Sequence Ability: 1. Hidden Path, 2. Listener...]

……

"I say, didn't your parents teach you that it's rude to stare blankly while someone is talking to you?"

Ishtar stared at the young man in front of her, trying hard to make her eyes cold.

In fact, she doesn't need to pretend at all, she can achieve this by just acting in her true self.

The notoriety of "The Secret Peeper" Ishtar has long been widely known in Star University. Countless students have been socially killed in college because they inadvertently participated in one of her psychological tests.

Therefore, even though Ishtar was quite beautiful, with blue pupils, delicate features, and a background as the only daughter of Count Julian, almost all students avoided her as much as possible, fearing that they would be caught by Ishtar's sharp gaze.
