Their world doesn't need gods.

Chapter 176: Gold Pocket Watch with the Same Emblem (2)

As for the few stalls that seemed to be very popular, it was not because he hated the people who ran the stalls and didn't want to get close to them, but because there were too many customers and Roderick didn't want to squeeze in to buy.

(Tsk, this is really annoying. Where did that guy Curitis go? I didn’t see him the whole day today.)

Curitis, who was usually impossible to drive away, was not with Roderick today.

Roderick was still thinking that if he were there, he would let him queue up to buy things for him.

In the end, he was so bored that he prepared to go back to the dormitory to sleep and recharge his energy for going out to the night street for fun.

Because the student union is keeping a close eye on him, he no longer dares to go to the Warner Fairy Forest to hunt monsters and obtain magic cores to strengthen his puppet.

It would be really terrible if even the Soul-Biting Ring was discovered and confiscated.

Illya and Arya's academy is divided into three semesters a year, and there is a half-month vacation between the first and second semesters.

At the end of the first semester, there is also the Puppet Master Academy Competition officially organized by the Empire.

If I don't participate in that competition and don't go to the capital to watch the game, I will have more than twenty days of vacation.

At that time, Roderick would use money from his family to rent a magic spaceship and go to an area that was more suitable for leveling up and collecting treasures, where he would hunt monsters in large numbers and obtain magic cores.

There is no need to take risks and be anxious at this moment.

As for why the courses at Illya Arya Academy are so lenient, Roderick said he knows nothing.

It is probably designed just to accommodate more events in the game.

Thinking about these trivial things, Roderick unknowingly came to the small square between the boys' and girls' dormitories.

Compared with the open square in front of the main castle, this place is much quieter and deserted.

Here, he ran into another person he really didn't want to see, Brady.

Brady was walking hand in hand with a very cute black-haired girl, and it seemed that the two had a very close relationship.

(Tsk, this guy actually has a woman...but how come I have never seen this girl before?)

Because the girl next to Brady was also wearing the second grade uniform, Roderick felt a little concerned.

The girl was pretty and had a nice figure, which was exactly what Roderick liked.

He didn't know why, but the other person always looked familiar to him, as if he had seen him somewhere before.

(That girl, doesn't she look a bit like Heraban's beautiful teacher?)

Roderick then remembered that he had seen Brady and Megan's kissing on the street at night before.

He realized that Megan Si may have deliberately dressed up as a sophomore girl in order to conceal her identity as a mentor so that she could date Brady.

Megan looks very young and beautiful. If she dressed a little younger and used makeup and some magic that hampered her cognition, she would look very natural even if she disguised herself as a student.

After realizing the truth, Roderick instantly lost interest in the two.

In order to avoid being dodged by the two men, Roderick deliberately took a detour and kept a distance from them.

Of course, Brady and Megan's presence had long been noticed by him.

When passing by the two of them, Brady looked at Roderick, smiled as if he had won, put his arms around Megan's waist, and kissed her passionately.

He seemed to think that Roderick didn't find a female companion today, so he deliberately showed off that he had Megan Si by his side.

(Tsk, what a disgusting guy, Marina is much better than the bitch next to you...if she didn't have something urgent to do today...eh?!)

With a clang, Roderick heard the crisp sound of metal hitting the ground.

It seemed that Brady's rough action caused something of Megan's to fall off.

The thing that fell out of Megan's clothes was a golden pocket watch.

Roderick had an impression of the patterns on it.

After the daytime activities on Winter Day, there was a dinner party hosted by the school in the evening.

Unlike aristocratic banquets for socializing, this dinner party imitated the customs of northern residents on cold winter days, where only very close people were dining and chatting together.

There is no need to greet and chat with a group of people, whether you know them or not, as usual. It is a very relaxing and pleasant dinner.

Because they won the most popular award in the daytime competition, Alfred and his team were allowed to use a private room on the third floor of the student cafeteria for dinner and a celebratory banquet.

In addition to the seven people from Noren's class, Michelle and Sophia who provided a lot of help beforehand, Rose and others from the Student Union, and Alberta who was still disguising herself to join in the fun also attended the celebration party.

There is also Louise who was invited by Alfred, Jessica, Leonard's lover, and Sabrina who was invited (nominally) by Michelle.

"By the way, Junior Al, why are there so many women here?"

Frank, a third-year student council member, asked, looking both dumbfounded and nervous.

Apart from the three boys from the student union including Frank, the only other men present were Alfred and Leonard.

There were nearly twenty women, and all of them were pretty and cute.

"Ahaha, this is usually the case around Al."

Leonard answered on behalf of Alfred.

"What does this mean? Could it be..."

Frank showed a surprised expression, and looked at Alfred with a look of "How could there be such a person in the world?"

I don't know what he misunderstood.

"It's not what you think, Senior Frank. Don't listen to Leonard's nonsense."

"I'm not talking nonsense, Al, you're a playboy, the enemy of men and women."

Leonard retorted with some jealousy.

"Forget it. I'm not too interested in your private lives, so I don't mean to ask. Although it's a little late to say it now, I still congratulate you on winning the competition."

Frank pushed his glasses and changed the subject to congratulate him.

"Thank you, Senior. But I didn't expect that we would lose in the profit evaluation."

Alfred said with some regret.

Their stall lost by a narrow margin to the third-year seniors who were preparing fast food such as fried chicken and French fries.

The specific reason for their defeat was that the fast food they sold was very popular among the puppets.

Many students bought a lot of them as rewards and snacks for their puppets...

It seemed that Emilia also used Alfred's student ID and bought a lot of fried chicken.

"I think it's good enough. After all, each booth can only be selected for one award. And the prize money is the same, so don't worry about it, Al."

Leonard patted Alfred's shoulder in comfort.
