Chapter 111 Dark Demon Bes the Crimson Star


    ***Edited by Kronost***


    After listening to Dark''s ount, the principal along with the professors quickly realised that there was one person missing in this story.


    The Moon Goddess would not disappear out of thin air, so there could only be a third party intervening.


    The little sphinx spun around in the temple, and said: "First take the students to the infirmary, I will notify Sister Kaleid as soon as possible. And Demon, you did a good job. You can leave the rest to the professors. And, if you don’t need a rest, don’t miss your first ball at the academy. I’ll be waiting for you in the banquet hall on the first floor."


    "As you say, principal." Dark bowed slightly and then walked out.


    After Dark left, Professor Silver retracted her gaze and said in a deep voice, "Pavar, what do you think of Demon''s words?"


    Professor Jones smiled: "He is hiding something, but we, magisters, all have our own secrets. Let it go; at least, in this matter, he should be on the good side."


    Professor Silver: "Then, do you have any guesses on the third party?"


    Professor Jones said indifferently, "Didi, or Cazer? Someone has to be responsible for this."


    ...


    It was already half past twelve when Dark arrived at the banquet hall on the first floor.


    Principal Arte waved the magic energy pen on the stage and performed many magic energy spells in front of the little magisters.


    By now, she should have announced the champion of the masquerade party, given out the rewards, and officially announced the beginning of the final carnival of the masquerade party.


    But tonight, she obviously made an effort to dy time.


    It wasn''t until Dark stepped into the banquet hall that she stopped showing off her skills and said with a smile, "Then let''s enter the awards session now. Let''s wee the first-year red star: Dark Demon!"


    "Pa!"


    A huge easter egg suddenly appeared above his head.


    As soon as Dark raised his head, the egg cracked open, and lots of ribbons and confettis burst out.


    And, everything before his eyes became blurred for a moment. Then, Dark suddenly realised that he was now standing left of Principal Arte on the stage.


    Principal Arte was still as eye-catching as always, with a ?-sized diamond mask on her beautiful face, a silver crown on top of her head, and a jet ck dress with a long tail.


    She didn''t look like a princess—but more like a vicious queen that often appeared in fairy tales.


    "Demon, stretch out your hand."


    Dark nodded and stretched out his hands. In the next moment, an unusually heavy and huge trophy appeared in his hands out of nowhere!


    Principal Arte''s voice echoed in the hall: "Let''s congratte this year''s Crimson Star!"


    After she said that, there was a sudden thunderous apuse in the hall.


    Principal Arte: "Demon, do you want to say anything?"


    Dark: "It''s too big."


    Principal Arte: "..."


    Dark stepped off the stage, still confused.


    He didn''t expect the trophy of the year champion to be such a big gold cup!


    How many credits will I be able to get if I sell it on Traveller Street?


    But as soon as he stepped down, the trophy in his hand began to shrink.


    (?? ??)


    A trophy nearly half a person''s height was turned into a palm-sized medal in the end!


    "Are you serious?"


    "How can you toy with my emotions like this?"


    Dark wanted to file aint, but the trophy turning into a medal seemed to be a routine show of the Halloween party. And there were only the first year students'' surprised exmations.


    He flipped over the medal and saw that the back side of the medal was engraved with:


    [Spell: Fame Follows Merit]


    So he poured magic energy into the medal and whispered, "Fame Follows Merit."


    Instantly, the medal became a big trophy nearly half a person''s height in his hands again!


    ...


    After turning the trophy back into a medal and pinning it on his chest, Dark found a random ce to sit down.


    He didn''t pay much attention to the rankings, and he was only slightly happy about bing a first-year champion.


    Principal Arte continued to give out awards.


    From year one to year six, there were a total of six trophies.


    Then to the first ce in the final overall rankings, the overall champion—The tinum Star Winner!


    A total of six contestants appeared on the stage one after another.


    Dark saw that Pandora-senpai sessfully won the fourth-year championship, but unfortunately didn''t win the tinum Star.


    "It seems that there are indeed many strong students hidden among the seniors."


    "Dark!"


    "Mhm?"


    Dianna, who finally squeezed over, sat down beside Dark, a milky scent wafted into his nose.


    Diannained: "Where have you been? We have been looking for you for a long time."


    Dark picked another ss of orange juice from the table and took a sip: "Something happened, so I got dyed a little. I just arrived."


    "Oh oh oh." Dianna immediately smiled again. She reached out to Dark''s chest and— disregarding whether it was appropriate or not—grabbed the Crimson Star medal, examining it carefully.


    Rose came over: "Congrattions on winning. As I had thought, you became the champion."


    Dark: "Thank you."


    Dianna recovered, and quickly said, "Congrattions."


    Then she began to look forward to the beginning of the ball.


    They were dressed in matching costumes of a couple, looking very lovely. Although there were many students in the dining hall, they were quite eye-catching.


    On the stage, Principal Arte also started the content of the next segment, which was "Meeting with the Princesses"!


    It was the arrival of the three princesses that made this masquerade extra special.


    Everyone had been looking forward to this for a long time.


    Principal Arte used the magic energy pen to draw a few fluorescent and flickering circles, and then cast out a magic trick. The magic energy exploded brilliantly, like a firework.


    "Let''s wee the three princesses!"


    Immediately afterwards, the three princesses sitting in the professor''s seats stood up and walked to the stage.


    Princess Eliza wore standard pce attire, except for the exquisite mask that obscured her beauty; her manner was calm and elegant, and her temperament was noble but gentle.


    Many supporters of the first princess in the audience cheered at her.


    The little tiger and the little bear who had almost no sense of existence also walked onto the stage energetically, and stood on both sides of the first princess obediently.


    The students only noticed the two little princesses when the fric atmosphere in the dining hall subsided slightly.


    Some people''s expressions changed after seeing them.


    Because the two extremely naughty little princesses had been running around in the castle earlier, most people had seen them—and some had even been harassed by them!


    And of course, they didn''t show any good attitude towards the little princesses.


    After the three princesses finished introducing themselves, the much-anticipated "Dance Partner Selection" session began.


    The first princess took a step forward, looking softly at the students below the stage.


    The atmosphere among the students became tense.
