Chapter 158 Magic Demonstration
At dusk, a strange scene occurred in the classroom of the villa.
At least it was weird in the eyes of Caroline and a group of Potions instructors.
In an instant, a vampire princess stood on the podium with a wronged look on her face, letting the blood from her wrist flow into a larger beaker.
When they appeared in front of the classroom door, the young man named Mu Hua hurriedly put away the beaker full of vampire blood, as if he was worried that his toys would be snatched away, and also knocked a larger plastic pot next to it away.
Among all the vampires in the other college, Setsuna can be said to be the most mysterious one. She seldom interacts with students from other departments of the academy, and even rarely appears in the Potions Department classes.
But the instructors in the Potions Department all had some impression of her, and most of the vampires in the other courtyard were in awe of her. She was elegant, cold, arrogant, charming, and even crazy, but no one had ever seen her look aggrieved.
Because she is the only one who can transform the students of the academy into lesser vampires.
Even though the two students' actions were somewhat voluntary and spontaneous, like those of crazy fans, the academy still considered Setsuna a dangerous person who needed special attention.
This Mu Hua actually bled the vampire on the first day he arrived at the Dusk Villa, and it was instant blood that was drained.
A group of mentors, including Caroline, Griffiths, and Joan, who came here for some unknown reason, all looked at Mu Hua standing on the podium with strange expressions.
"Caroline, are you sure he can stay here safely? Although I don't want any instructor to become a vampire's follower, I don't want any negative incidents like professors being killed to happen in Dusk Villa."
Griffiths looked at Mu Hua who was fiddling with the mind-mimicking instrument on the podium and asked Caroline.
"Well, I'm not too sure. I didn't expect him to really bleed the vampires, and it was instant blood." Caroline smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"Haha, Dean, at least, for now, it seems that these vampires are not manic." A necromancer in a gray cloak laughed, but the gloating in his tone could not be concealed at all.
Vampires can survive on normal food, but they are still judged for feeding on blood, the underlying reason being that the blood of powerful creatures promotes their growth.
Just like after Mu Hua obtained the flesh and blood characteristics of the Minotaur, he was able to improve his own attributes by eating some high-quality flesh and blood.
Vampires have a high natural growth rate, but meat is useless to them. They can only improve themselves by taking in the blood of powerful creatures.
Human blood is of no help in improving the strength of vampires, but they cannot get rid of the need for human blood.
Because they must ingest human blood to maintain their humanity, and human blood can give vampires spiritual satisfaction and pleasure.
Vampires are not allowed to bite people casually.
Even if their existence is accepted and humans allow them to purchase and consume human blood, it is still illegal for them to directly suck blood from humans without the other party's consent.
This law is a restriction on vampires. Violators may even be hunted down by the vampire clan, but there are exceptions.
For example, a human who seeks the blood of a vampire is not protected by this law.
When a vampire sucks human blood, it is considered an act of persecution. When a human goes to drink the blood of a vampire, it is also considered an act of persecution.
Regardless of whether the two parties did it voluntarily or spontaneously, as long as they have drawn each other's blood, at least from a legal perspective, there will be no interference in the two parties' 'harming each other'.
Of course, this kind of mutual harm is still limited to not endangering life or restricting personal freedom.
But a human ran into the Dusk Courtyard full of vampires, and you still let his blood. Tsk tsk, anyway, most of the instructors in the Potions Department have already thought of the various anemia problems that Mu Hua will suffer in the future.
However, compared to the human group's pessimism towards Mu Hua, the vampires' mood was extremely conflicted and weird.
Vampires generally share a common hatred for people who have their blood drained.
But regardless of the reason, you can't even bite through someone's skin, so how can you suck?
Among the vampires in the classroom, some were angry that Mu Hua had released Shanna's blood, some took the attitude that it was none of their business, and some were thinking about whether they could ask Mu Hua for some of his blood.
Well, the last type of vampire just wanted to try the taste of human blood like Mu Hua.
In general, Mu Hua's thick skin seems to bother the vampire more than other aspects of him.
"Ah, Mu Hua... Teacher, the class can begin." Everyone sat down, and Griffith's voice came from the back row of the classroom.
Griffiths' tone was a little disdainful, and Mu Hua glanced at Caroline and her group in the back row. As the real dean, Griffiths obviously did not quite agree with Mu Hua's professorship, and even seemed a little reluctant to call Mu Hua teacher.
"Huh? Why are you sitting here again? Go, sit more closely, it's hard for me to see." Nodding in the direction of Caroline, Mu Hua first spoke to the three werewolves who acted as invisible.
At this time, a group of vampires sat down on the right side of the classroom, while three werewolves huddled together on the left side of the classroom.
As Mu Hua made the request, the vampires laughed in silence. The three werewolves reluctantly stood up and moved to the middle of the classroom.
Caroline in the back row twitched her lips. She regretted recruiting Mu Hua into the Dusk Courtyard.
"This guy is here to cause trouble."
In fact, the vampires and werewolves who were able to enter the Dusk Villa had barely given up their hatred for each other, but there was absolutely no intention of getting close to each other.
Vampires try to integrate into human society out of a strong need for self-preservation, while werewolves do so more to prevent vampires from unilaterally expanding their influence in human society.
Although the two sides will not engage in physical combat, it is still common for them to trip each other up and cause trouble.
Both sides also like to find ways to prove how "rubbish" the other side is in front of students from other departments...
Putting the two sides together, especially throwing the werewolves, who are more outnumbered, into the pile of vampires, would help avoid being suspected of adding fuel to the fire.
"Well, you have probably been in school longer than many instructors, so we won't waste any more time on you." Mu Hua opened his remarks at the podium, as if he was completely oblivious to the emotions of the people in the classroom.
As seeds for integrating into the human world, students at Dusk Academy do not have a normal graduation process. Mu Hua doesn't even know how many years his class has been in the academy.
Since I can really get the blood of the vampires by teaching here, in order to guide them for a long time, I have to come up with something decent when teaching them.
As he spoke, Mu Hua turned on the instrument next to him that looked like a globe.
"Om~"
As the instrument was turned on, the podium was stretched to form a wide virtual space.
There is nothing but wasteland, earth slopes, and low hills. The entire space is dozens of times larger than a classroom.
Mu Hua was still standing in front of the podium, but in the wasteland, a virtual image with Mu Hua's image stood in front of a target. This space was like a virtual magic show venue.
"Three magics. You can choose one from the three. I plan to use this magic to get by in the academy. Whether I will demonstrate other magics in the future depends on my mood."
Standing on the podium, when Mu Hua spoke calmly, the instructors from the Potions Department in the back row frowned unhappily.
"Oh, young people nowadays are really full of character." Griffiths said to Caroline happily, but Joan, who was familiar with him, knew that the old man was not in a very good mood.
There was no time for everyone to ask questions. The virtual image of Mu Hua in the wilderness began to move. Multiple magic circles, complex spell modules, and countless magic threads seemed to construct a magical building in the void.
This is the display effect brought by the magic analysis instrument. Under the intentional operation of the operator, it will disassemble the original magic circle into various units and display them, which is clearer and more lasting than a simple mental outline.
As dazzling spell modules took shape in the void, dozens of fireballs emerged and slammed towards the target in the distance.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The bombardment like a cluster of artillery covered the target area, dust and gravel. Everyone in the classroom put away the contempt on their faces, and for the first time, Griffith looked at Mu Hua with caution in his eyes.
"Is it really inherent magic?" Griffith looked at Caroline and said softly.
"This blasting effect... This magic is more complete than the last time I saw it."
"Perhaps, if you give him some more time to grow, do you think you still have the ability to admit him to the academy?" Caroline replied with a chuckle.
"Inherent magic has a high reference value, but it is not worth learning. However, at this age... well, it's harmless to just muddle through." Griffith muttered softly.
Joan, who was sitting next to Griffiths, was already surprised: Is this the poor child that Samantha mentioned?
Are you kidding? Who would dare to make him suffer when he casts such magic?
