The Vacant Position
Dressed casually, the Miss Ke Family looked at the admission notice and the thick photocopy in her hand, giving Feng Xue a strange expression:
"You came here to attend high school, fine, but you even chose to be a senior! And we're leaving in June, so you're here to experience the pressure of preparing for the college entrance exam, but you're not going to take it? Do you enjoy being tortured?"
"Uh, you know quite a lot, huh?" Feng Xue looked at the Miss Ke Family with surprise, who even seemed to know this much. Realizing she was being underestimated, the Miss Ke Family immediately said:
"Even though I've been around for quite a while in terms of age, don't treat me like some kind of Old Fossils. My hobby is experiencing all sorts of lives!"
"Oh, so you were a high school student too?" Feng Xue looked the Miss Ke Family up and down, her charm fully displayed after Gynomorphic Filter, and imagined what she would look like in a JK uniform.
"I've told you so many times, don't look at me like that!"
The Miss Ke Family immediately bristled, while Feng Xue wore an expression that said, "I did it on purpose," and laughed as she said:
"Don't be so serious! Senior year has its advantages. I've brought out all my best tricks for this!"
Feng Xue shrugged, looked at the school in front of her, and a playful expression appeared on her face.
Although, in theory, January 1st is not even the start of winter break.
However, in any worldview where the college entrance examination (Gaokao) exists, for high school seniors preparing for their final year, there are no winter or summer vacations or final exams. All exams are solely for that final leap in the Gaokao. Therefore, after obtaining official student status through their Student ID, the two entered this high school with a high college entrance rate without any worries.
The high school section of the Technical University of Palin.
To be precise, it's the Third Year Department.
Because in this school, the senior year has its own separate campus.
Holding the notebook she had copied from other students, the Miss Ke Family still wore a puzzled expression, but Feng Xue pulled her along as they walked into Class 3-1.
Although two transfer students arrived, the atmosphere in Class 3-1 was one of complete indifference, unlike the previous transfers from junior high. Neither the teachers nor the students showed any curiosity about the handsome young man and beautiful young woman.
It wasn't because the two of them activated any powers of Hermit or disguise; it was simply because students studying hard in the top classes of prestigious schools generally have a clear understanding of their current situation. In the final six months before the exam, who has the mind to gossip?
The teachers probably had a similar attitude. At this time, the transfer students were either there for a final push or they wanted to use the connection with the affiliated high school to get into Palin Technical University more easily.
But no matter what, as long as they behave well, that's fine. As for student relationships, they're all in their final year of high school, who cares!
So, after briefly mentioning the two students' names and pointing them to the last table in the classroom, the homeroom teacher turned and left. The teacher in charge of the morning reading session immediately got into the zone, not even caring whether the two students could keep up.
Feng Xue quickly took her seat, expertly pulled out her pre-copied notebook, and began to listen attentively. The Miss Ke Family, sitting beside her, frowned and said:
"Ke Ya is such an awful name, couldn't you at least ask for my opinion?"
"Otherwise what? The Faceless God of Chaos? The Creator Lord of Ten Thousand Transformations? What should I call you?" Feng Xue glanced at the Supernatural Tale Fire emanating from the Miss Ke Family, her tone slightly mocking. Upon hearing this, the Miss Ke Family sighed:
"Fine, call me whatever you want. By the way, can you tell me now what your idea was in bringing me to school?"
"I've discovered a vacancy for a divine position in this world, and I'd like to give it a try," Feng Xue said. Upon hearing this, the Miss Ke Family frowned and said:
"No way? Aoyagi Lantern said that there are no more gods in this world."
"When he said 'no,' he meant there was no place for it; when I said 'there is,' I meant there's a possibility of creating it," Feng Xue remarked casually as she jotted down her teacher's notes.
"The reason why Weird Tale exist is because they are interesting and have a high degree of dissemination. The reason why gods exist is because humans need them. So, conversely, if there is a position that is neither interesting nor disseminated, nor needed, does that mean that there are no Weird Tale in that position?"
"Such a position exists? But even if it does, what's the point? After all, it's not needed and nobody promotes it. Even if you stand in this position, you can't use it to generate Trait, right?"
Although the Miss Ke Family was only just getting used to the system settings of the Infinite City, she adapted very quickly. Feng Xue turned her head and gave her a look that said, "I Think you."
The Miss Ke Family stiffened slightly, but then suddenly realized and said:
"Forcing them to spread it? A primitive belief achieved through fear? No wonder you came to me! Tsk!"
"Isn't this easy to understand?" Feng Xue's lips curled up slightly, and the Miss Ke Family nodded.
"No problem, this is my area of expertise. So, tell me, what position are you looking for?"
"Senior year of high school."
"What?" The Miss Ke Family was slightly taken aback, as if she hadn't heard clearly. Feng Xue turned her head again and, with very obvious mouth movements, said in a clear and articulate voice:
"Senior year of high school."
After saying that, seeing that the Miss Ke Family was still confused, he immediately explained:
"No matter the world, the most widely Supernatural Tale Transmission are always those Weird Tale in schools. This is because students have plenty of free time, are lively enough, and can often get together. However, no matter which school Weird Tale it is, it will never include Weird Tale about senior high school students. Even if it does, these are delusional Weird Tale created by lower-grade students, not Weird Tale formed by actual senior high school students' understanding of senior year. This is because senior year itself is not fun; it's very busy, leaving no time to spread Weird Tale. Even if Weird Tale existed, people in the circle wouldn't pay attention to them because everyone's studies are too heavy. Yet, senior high school students are the group under the most pressure, and this pressure is a good window into their understanding."
"So, you want to become the god of senior high school?"
The Miss Ke Family seemed to understand slightly, but felt that something was amiss. Feng Xue, however, laughed:
"Well, who knows? Maybe it's the 'Third Year Demon'?"
"That sounds interesting, but are you sure the dream I create will ultimately benefit you?"
A slightly wicked smile appeared on the face of the Miss Ke Family, but Feng Xue said nonchalantly:
"Ultimately, it's just a supernatural Weird Tale without much authority. It doesn't matter who it falls into; the key is whether it can be created."
"Alright, since you put it that way." The Miss Ke Family nodded, but her mind was already racing, trying to figure out how to set up a plan that would not only complete the task but also make this guy understand that she was no pushover at all!
