Chapter 91: Dark Demon rushes towards the castle
Chapter 91 Dark Demon rushes towards the castle
***Edited by Kronost***
In the Noble House tower.
Dark dripped a drop of cat juice on the roots of cat grass, poured some potion on Worm Tree, and then nodded in satisfaction.
Among other things, growing flowers and grass really cultivated one's mind.
Putting the clingy cat grass back into the sleeping basket, Dark began to carefully check what he was carrying.
The masquerade would start at 6 o'clock in the evening and continue until the bell rings at 12 o'clock. The students would usher in a new day in the hall of welcome.
During this period, they would need to go deep into the castle to find hidden ghosts and kill them.
The credits earned by killing ghosts would be recorded on the sorting card.
Using the sorting card, students could even check their rankings in each year and in each house.
The most popular was naturally the overall ranking.
Unlike the year champions, the champions of the overall rankings would not only get a special title, but also a huge amount of credits and rare resource rewards.
So even the senior students would go all out in the masquerade party!
It was not very easy to snatch credits from the fingers of senior students.
Fortunately, the academy had relevant regulations on this.
Ghosts ranged from one star to eight stars.
Year three students won't get any credits from killing one-star ghosts.
Year four students wouldn't get any credits from killing ghosts below two-star.
Year five students wouldn't get any credits from killing ghosts below three-star.
Year six students wouldn't get any credits from killing ghosts below four-star.
...
Dark's goal was clear: to get more credits.
Therefore, there shouldn't be too much weight on the dress.
It was best to bring only one card pouch.
Dark took out the magic cards and organized it.
It has been exactly two months since the start of school.
Not counting the flower cards, Dark already had 16 magic cards.
①[Pride Ⅰ]
②[Pride Ⅱ]
③[Lust Ⅰ]
④[Lust Ⅲ]
⑤[Phantom Magic Beast: Eevee]
⑥[Trash Slime]
⑦[Shuckle]
⑧[Card of Happiness]
⑨[Silence Potion]
⑩[Manifestation Powder]X2
⑪[Energy Potion]X5
Plus a sorting card, that was 17 cards.
The card pouch provided by the academy could be filled with 21 magic cards.
So he thought about it, put [dress-up card] in it, and put note paper, pencil, eraser and a magic energy pen in the interlayer.
Everything was ready.
Dark changed into the "Night Prince Suit", put on a black crow mask, adjusted his hairstyle, and opened the door.
"Hey!"
Dianna popped out of the bush.
After putting on the "Night Princess Dress", she was like a fairy walking out of the night—noble, elegant, beautiful, and lovely.
Beside her, Rose was wearing a white non-commissioned officer uniform with her soft blond hair hidden in the hat, looking unexpectedly handsome!
According to Rose herself, she wanted to take this opportunity to experience the feeling of being a boy.
From the psychological analysis, this was the expression of her subconscious yearning to become her cousin.
...
Both of them have not put on their masks yet, obviously waiting here on purpose.
Dark pressed his brows helplessly.
Dianna stretched out her white tender hand and pouted, "Trick or treat?"
"Meow~"
Cat grass showed half of its face from behind Dark.
Rose's eyes lit up: "So Dark, you also have cat grass!"
Dark took the opportunity: "I've been keeping it for some time."
Rose looked at the cat grass with a bud blooming above its head, and said with envy: "Aw~, yours looks so nice. My Garfield is so fat that it's like a ball now."
Dark chuckled: "Chubby cat looks cute too, and cat grass won't get sick because of being overweight."
"That's true." Rose expressed her subjective thoughts, which is very rare. "It feels very comfortable to squish my Garfield. It's just that sometimes I would wake up feeling suffocated because of it sitting on my chest."
Dark; "Haha, my cat grass likes to sleep next to my pillow."
Dianna pouted her mouth: "Dianna wants to buy one too!"
The three of them smiled and walked to the common room.
Dianna and Rose also put on the half-faced black crow mask and peacock feather mask when they went downstairs.
When they arrived, the common room was already full of people.
Thanks to the spaciousness of the common room, it could fit all students from the six years.
Standing on the stairs and looking out, they could see that most of the senior students were dressed in formal attire, which was neither exaggerated nor simple, just like the type worn in a normal banquet.
Some senior students even had a red rose in their chest pockets!
Their purpose was obvious.
But probably no one expected that the similarity between their costumes would be so high.
If only one or two people wore this way, it would not be a big problem.
But if dozens of people wore the same costume, they would not be able to stand out from the crowd.
However, they couldn't do anything now.
If they wanted to stand out, they could only rely on their strengths now!
So the senior students geared up.
The students from the lower years still maintained a childlike innocence, and there were a lot of monster costumes.
According to Dark's understanding of the two little twin princesses, they were likely to be more interested in students dressed up as monsters.
They were not as obedient as they looked.
But the first princess really is a gentle and elegant girl, and may like gentleman costumes.
...
Magister House tower.
Even though it was almost six o'clock, Pandora still stayed in her dormitory.
She was wearing a snow-white bridal gown, which was a reflection of her inner beautiful vision.
It is already the fourth year she will participate in the masquerade party of the academy. Of course she knew it would be crowded in the common room around this time.
There was no need to squeeze there in order to grab that little opportunity.
As long as she came out a little bit late, she could avoid a lot of bad things, so why not do it?
...
Knight House tower.
White and Robert have been squeezed into french fries.
The two had bought a set of costumes each on Saturday.
Robert bought a one-piece werewolf costume, which was obviously not a costume that ordinary people could control, but Robert had enough physique and strength.
And White wore a "Vampire Count Costume" that showed half of his face.
A vampire and a werewolf—an interesting pair.
...
Fool House tower.
...
Finally, the moment that all were waiting for
The hour hand pointed directly down.
From the spiral clock tower in the center of the academy rang out a loud bell.
"Duang~!"
The restriction is lifted.
The students suddenly rushed out of their towers like wild rabbits.
Nearly a thousand students swarmed into Saint Marian's castle in an instant, and the sleeping ghosts all opened their eyes, and countless black bats started flying from everywhere!
In the face of the swarm of bats, the first-year students mixed in the crowd rushed inside the castle excitedly.
