"Ah... lean slightly inwards!"

Just as Han Dong had agreed to study in the library as a ' Visiting Scholar '.

Lady Hera blushed slightly and made suggestive noises.

The reason for this was that Demps was massaging the Vice Curator's calves with his unique massage Finger Technique, and a sensation similar to continuous electric shocks was spreading from the calf muscles, which was extremely comfortable.

Hera's expression immediately changed, and she asked with a serious face, "Ahem... Nicholas, what do you major in in the occult?"

"He specializes in plague and is also proficient in a little bit of witchcraft."

Hera gave a very disdainful look.

"Witchcraft, a low-grade spell that requires a physical vessel to operate, relies on Dark Magic and Creature Arcana as its foundation, and attempts to stand on equal footing with magic... It is nothing more than a narrow and extremely restrictive spell."

However, witchcraft and magic also have some things in common.

Generally, students in our department undergo a very rigorous and detailed testing process upon enrollment to determine their ' Magic Affinity ' and ' Attribute Bias '.

"Perform your magic once, so I can use it as a standard to judge your foundation and future learning direction."

"Good!"

The so-called witchcraft that Han Dong mentioned was nothing more than releasing the Seed Energy in the form of crows.

When this kind of witchcraft was first used in actual combat during the "Kwaidan" incident, it had a good effect.

However... the crows that Han Dong usually releases all contain certain crow-human attributes, which are equivalent to attributes outside the city.

Currently, the only option is to hide the crow's attributes and simply use Seed Energy to release the crows.

Gaa!

A pure black raven immediately appeared from Han Dong's palm and flew towards Lady Hera.

Buzz...

When the crow was about a meter away, it crashed into a Colorless and Intangible Magic Shield.

A black ripple spread across the surface and then slowly dissipated, leaving only a few crow feathers floating in the air.

Hera stared at the spreading black ripples, recalling the move she had just made, and fell into deep thought.

"Hera...is this considered Dark Magic?" Demps said from the side.

"Bionic magic created without a physical medium... that certainly falls under the category of ' Dark Magic.' Kid, did you learn this trick from a witch the Depths of the Swamp?"

Han Dong quickly denied it and explained:

"No... I figured it out myself."

Because Mr. Black and White initially taught me some characteristics about 'Ravens', I had a chance encounter with the Crowman Tribe when I went out of town with Demps on an elite mission last time.

A combination of factors led me to devise the idea of infusing Seed Energy into the characteristics of a raven, thereby unleashing this magic.

It can unleash a single crow for a direct attack, or disperse and release a large number of crows to disrupt the enemy.

Self-taught.

If Han Dong majors in Library Science, Lady Hera will definitely make it a key training target.

"No wonder the Crow Prophet took a liking to you... You do have some skills."

Since you are proficient in Dark Magic, take these books back and study them on your own.

During your self-study period, you can attend classes in any classroom in my library as a ' Visiting Scholar '.

For areas where permissions were insufficient, they would seek help from Demps.

Come see me again in a month... I will conduct a full review of you then.

If you pass, I will take you directly into the practical application of basic magic.

You will be Demps's real opponent.

Among his classmates, no one could last three minutes against Demps ... I hope you can be a long-term sparring partner."

Three thick books were thrown into Han Dong's hands.

"Overview of Basic Magic", "The Origin of Dark Magic", and "Prayers of Darkness and Light (Dark Side)"

"Teacher Hera, could you please give me another book related to alchemy?"

"Hmm? You're dual-classing and want to try a side hustle? You seem to have a lot of free time..."

However, seeing that Han Dong's Crow Sorcery was quite well completed, Hera waved her hand and handed Han Dong a copy of "Pyramid - The Foundation of Alchemy".

"Remember, you must learn your side hustle after you have completed your major studies."

If you want money, wait until you can grow a unique Talent Tree by combining two seeds, just like the Great Plague Lord.

Naturally, they would receive the Holy City's attention, and First Year commission would flow into their accounts every month.

"I'm simply very interested in 'alchemy'... and want to try to learn about it."

"Alright, that's enough for today."

Demps and I have some 'things' to do, so you can go back on your own... Of course, you're welcome to wander around the library if you wish."

That's all.

The Vice Curator paid no attention to Han Dong's gaze and immediately slid his fingers across Demps's body, indicating that he should massage other parts of his body.

To everyone's surprise, Demps refused and moved the Vice Curator's long legs off him.

"Sister Hera, I'm a little tired today... Besides, my friend just arrived at the library, and I have to take him home."

Let's talk about the massage another time.

"Good..."

This conversation surprised Han Dong.

Demps's methods were even more sophisticated than Han Dong had anticipated... It seemed that through the tactic of 'feigning indifference to lure the enemy,' he had privately established an 'equal' relationship with the high-ranking Vice Curator.

Han Dong smiled to himself as he watched the handsome young man walking towards him from the side.

... walk out of the Main Library Building.

"This is a detailed plan of the library, marking the buildings and special areas that require access... Also, this is an important notebook I made when I first came to the library, you can take a look."

This should save you a lot of trouble.

Demps's excessive enthusiasm made Han Dong feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Habitual.

For some reason, Demps's arm was also draped over Han Dong's shoulder, which seemed rather intimate.

"I rarely see my 'kind' in the Holy City ... let alone classmates like you, especially since we've been through life and death together outside the city."

"Doesn't Mia count too?"

"She is merely Insect Possessed, a special student who passively makes contact with the outside world... while you and I actively make contact with the outside world."

"If you need anything at the library in the future, don't hesitate to ask me. Don't be shy."

"Good."

Demps slowly brought his lips close to Han Dong's ear and whispered:

"By the way, you're probably going out of town soon, right? Could you take me with you?"

Han Dong had not told anyone about the manor.

Demps's question caused Han Dong's expression to change slightly.

Of course, he couldn't refuse. While nodding, Han Dong said a condition, "Okay, but... you have to meet Mr. Black and White. After all, I rely on Mr. Black and White's private carriage to leave the city."

"No problem."

As long as Demps can meet with Mr. Black and White, the 'security issue' will be reviewed by Mr. Black and White... If Mr. Black and White thinks there is no problem, then Han Dong will at least not have to worry about leaks.

They still have a sense of caution.
