Sorceress - Chapter 317
The group still had two months left to prepare. There were still a lot of things that could happen within those span of two months.
But in the meantime, Mu Lingxi’s group believed that it would be best if they could focus their attention back to their studies first.
To be honest, their group really had a lot of catching up needed. Considering that they had been out from their classes for almost a month or so.
If they would go and add up those days that they had spent ever since they went to the Long Kingdom and the Sanguine Tundra.
That was not to mention all the days that they were out while conducting their other school missions.
They were indeed not missing out in terms of experience as well as practical battles.
But when it came to their studies, it could be said that they were simply on the brink of death already.
Well, that of course was with the exemption of their two eggheaded friends, namely Fan Lei and Su Yan (Mu Lingxi).
Chan Gu and the others started to get serious about their studies as soon as they realized how dire the situation they were currently at.
For the past few days, Mu Lingxi’s friends became frequent visitors to the school library.
But as to how long they would going to last being like that, it was still unsure.
That was a kind of question better left unanswered in the meantime.
While her friends were busy burying themselves under the books at the library, Mu Lingxi was left thinking to herself.
Meanwhile, there was a calming melody that was played in a loop to serve as background music in the library.
This music had an effect of relaxing the minds of those students who chose to spend their time studying at the school library.
It would aid them to better memorize everything that they were trying to learn.
The music resounded in the entire library and it seemed to be coming from the walls.
Most likely, there were magical inscriptions that were inscribed to the walls of the library lately.
In hopes of helping the students to study for the upcoming student annual announcement.
But this relaxing sound soon faded on the background as Mu Lingxi’s thoughts started to drift farther away to the four corners of the school library.
Her thoughts went on all the things that transpired to her life lately. As well as to all the facts that she had learned about herself so far
Thinking about it, Mu Lingxi can now at least call herself as ‘half’ sorceress.
After a few months of studying at one of the prestigious schools of magic, the Magus Academia, she can now do some magic stuff like casting spells and concocting elixirs.
In fact, she could even be considered as good at it. Though she was still just barely touching the basics of it.
Nonetheless, she could now at least officially considered herself as a sorceress who was undergoing her training.
So it was safe for her to put a check on her goal of learning how to be a sorceress for now.
Initially, that was her only goal when she was transmigrated to this world.
But as time went by, she got herself involved in a lot of things.
And before she knew it, she was already heading into uncovering the secrets of this world.
The good thing was that she was not alone in this quest now. Because aside from her cute and little black cat, Janus, she also got herself a set of good friends.
The only problem was, they were not aware of her true identity.
Because apparently she was using a disguise and was currently cross-dressing as Su Yan. Since she was trying to avoid her arranged marriage with Long Fuzi.
To be honest, there were times when she had this urge to come clean and just tell them that she was actually a girl and end all this lies once and for all.
But the thing was that she did not know where to start. Nor how she could continue to live with them afterward.
She did not know how she could spill the beans.
Now that we mentioned about her disguise, it could be said that it was another source of her distress.
She basically dug up her own grave when she started this crazy idea of crossdressing
For some unknown reason, the villain wannabe, Mu Yanxiao, who also happened to be her cousin learned about her secret!
Fortunately, it did not seem like she has any intention of exposing her secret in the meantime.
But lately, another person accidentally learned about her disguise. Which is Long Yue!
Thankfully he also agreed on keeping her secret, as his sign of gratitude. Since Mu Lingxi played a great role in helping him out in finding the cure to Luna’s condition
“Janus, where did you get your ancient blood from??? How did you end up in my world before?”
“Are you aware that you are not a normal cat, right from the start? Or you just discovered about it lately?”
“What can your ancient blood do aside from transmigrating an incomplete soul into another world?”
“Am I really the incomplete that will bring the distraction upon this world just like how it was mentioned it the curse?”
Mu Lingxi was curious to know all those things.
She had been dying to ask those questions to her cat.
But sadly she had never gotten a chance to do so because they have been busy running around the places for the past months
But now that she finally got some free time at her disposal, she thought about asking her cat Janus’ about it already.
“Janus, is there something you forgot to tell me?”
Janus was having the time of his life at that moment.
He was leisurely swaying his tail to matched with the flow of the calming melody played in the background
He was just about to lick his paws clean when he was caught off guard by his master.
As she suddenly raised an unexpected question towards him out of the blue.
“MEOW”
[Err. What do you mean, little lass???]
It was wan not that he was trying to feign ignorance.
Janus clearly had no idea what Mu Lingxi was talking about right now.
“Well, I was just wondering how I was able to get to know you. Out of the million other people leaving in the previous world that we came from, why was I the one chosen to be the incomplete soul to transmigrate into this world.”
Mu Lingxi would be lying if she would say that she was not bothered in the least by that curse that was placed upon the previous owner of her body by the apprentice necromancer.
After all, it was not just about the old Mu Lingxi. But it also concerned about her identity as the incomplete soul who took over the body after the possession.
It was said in the cursed that an incomplete soul would possess the body of the old Mu Lingxi and that soul would bring the utter distraction upon this world.
Well, it just so happened that she ended up being that incomplete soul mentioned on the curse.
“MEOW”
[Regarding that one, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to give you the answer that you were looking for. But don’t worry, because that thing about the ‘distraction of the world is nothing but a hoax.]
“How did you say so???”
