On the other side of the cafeteria, Angus Jeffrey was aggressively cutting the pancake on his plate, his frown never leaving his face.

He was currently in a very terrible mood.

Mike Irving had obviously already gone for a duel with Dark Demon.

Although the outcome of the duel wasn't very ideal, it still fell within the limit of his tolerance.

But why did he keep getting this indescribably strange feeling as if everything he had done before had been in vain?

But what about the actual result?

……

As Jeffrey recalled the "take care, senior" that Dark said to Irving at the end, he was suddenly overcome with the urge to cough up blood!

Looking back at it now, why did that duel seem very much like a friendly match between a senior and a junior?

Irving had even specially picked the comparatively dangerous street duel mode, but why did the final outcome turn out this way?

After thinking for a long time, Jeffrey finally reached a conclusion.

The problem definitely lay with Mike Irving!

……

The darkness of dusk slowly seeped from the horizon, flowing into the orange-red sunset glow.

A thin layer of veil draped over the snowfield.

As Dark looked after the magical spirits, he was simultaneously having a meal together with the girls.

In front of many other people, Senior Pandora was surprisingly very reserved. She was obviously a meat-loving big eater, and yet she always held back after having just enough tonight.

Professor Lily was the complete opposite. Ever since she got to the snowfield, she had been completely setting herself free.

Dianna had restrained herself a lot in front of the professor, but sometimes, she still couldn't hold back from scrambling for dessert with her.

Rose was still as gentle and quiet as ever.

However, she silently noted that Pandora's familiar spirit seemed to be exceptionally intelligent.

With the way everyone sat together in a circle, instead of a Valentine's Day dinner, it looked more like they were having a family dinner.

Professor Lily and Dianna didn't have much reaction to it, but Pandora and Rose seemed to greatly relish this familial atmosphere.

……

At six thirty in the evening, Pandora glanced at the time and said at last, "It's getting late, I have to leave first. I had a very pleasant time today, thank you everyone."

"You're leaving so soon?" Not wanting it to end just yet, Professor Lily said, "I still want to continue hanging out at night!"

Dark couldn't help letting out a sigh. "Professor, we still have classes at night."

"Huh?" Professor Lily exclaimed in surprise, "Is that so? Maybe my brain automatically blocked it from my memory."

Her expression spontaneously turned upset.

She couldn't even remember how long it had been since she had as great a time as she did today.

All the other professors in the academy were too rigid—not even one of them was willing to play in the snow!

……

"I'll take my leave then, Professor Lily. Goodbye everyone."

Pandora gave her final wave to Dark before leaving the cafeteria.

Soon, Dark and the others also started preparing to leave.

The magical spirits put their small forks, small spoons and other utensils into their own plates. One by one, they carried the plates and directly sent them back into the kitchen.

Dark briefly cleaned the tabletop before going to the kitchen to say his thanks to the halfling chefs.

Afterwards, the whole pack also left the cafeteria.

Although Professor Lily was visibly disappointed, she still had to say goodbye to Dark and the others at the junction in the road leading to the professors' dormitory.

In the end, they were back to a trio.

"We're going to start class again!" grumbled Dianna as she pouted.

Rose smilingly said, "I'm actually quite interested in tonight's astronomy class."

Then the two of them began to frolic in the spacious corridor.

The dim light spilled through the windows into the castle at a slant. The three of them walked into the light, then stepped into the darkness, continuously moving forward in the interweaving light and darkness.

……

Upon entering the tower and returning to the dorm, Dark suddenly found that more chocolates had been left at his door.

He bent down to pick up the chocolates, all the while thinking that it wasn't good to eat too much sweet stuff like this—but he still carried all of them into his room.

Making use of the brief spare time before class started, Dark unwrapped the chocolates one by one.

There were cards and letters with the sender's name written in some of the packages, but there were also those who purely gave the chocolates as-is, seemingly too shy to leave their names behind.

In summary, those who gave him these chocolates were from the same group of people as the previous batch. Only this time, there was the addition of some first-year students who weren't part of Noble House.

He tidied up all the cards and letters, then moved the chocolates aside.

Although he felt sorry, it was impossible for him to finish all these chocolates by himself, so he could only share them with his magical spirits.

At last, only the chocolates from Professor Lily, Pandora, and Rose were left.

After thinking about it, he decided to save them for later and open them after returning from class.

There would always be some surprises in life.

Sometimes you just happened to come across it.

But sometimes you needed to create it by yourself.

"Come here," Dark beckoned to Eevee with his hand.

Eevee-chan, who had already put its little bag around its neck, immediately leaped up and pounced into his arms.

Recalling a picture from a certain anime, Dark tried putting Eevee on top of his shoulder. But Eevee, who weighed 7.5 kilos, was truly rather heavy.

In the end, Dark still settled on carrying it in his arms.

At this time, he had already reactivated [Wonderland] inside the dorm.

After playing to their heart's content all afternoon long, the magical spirits contentedly lay in various spots around the dorm, each lazily doing their own thing.

However, the sneaky glances they threw Eevee's way still contained all kinds of envy.

Every Wednesday night, Eevee-chan would always go out under such envious gazes.

This was probably the main reason that sustained its continued love for the astronomy class.

……

Since Medea Bartholomew, the professor of the astronomy class, had permitted Dark to bring Eevee into the classroom and attend the lessons, he didn't have to recall Eevee into its card.

Because the distance from the tower of Noble House to the Spiral Clock Tower was quite far, Dark had to set out earlier.

He met up with Rose and Dianna in the common room, and then left together for the class.

On the way to the Spiral Clock Tower, the loud chattering of the first year students gradually subsided as they slowly broke away from the atmosphere of Valentine's Day and returned to the mindset of learning.

Everything was quietly changing.
