After Night White and Mavis returned home, Night White turned into the Blood race and then looked at Mavis with a look of help.

"Sister Mavis, can you help me raise the summoned beast?"

"No!" Mavis refused, after all, the summoned beast is close to the master. For the summoned beast, she is also considered an outsider.

"Sister Mavis! You and I are flowing with the bloodline of Cecilia's royal family, so my summoned beast is your summoned beast too. Please help me take care of it." Iris kept rubbing against Mavis's chest, which tickled Mavis.

"You just don't want to shell out money to raise a summoned beast. Don't I understand you yet?"

"So sister Mavis has promised me." Iris felt that there was hope.

"I didn’t promise that! If my aunt knows that my money is used for you, I will definitely be punished by my aunt and may never have pocket money again!"

"But isn't sister Mavis an S-ranked adventurer? Isn't earning money a breeze for you?" Iris looked at Mavis in confusion.

"Kneel down! Iris!" Mavis said in a commanding tone. The temperature of the air around her began to drop.

"Huh??" Iris looked at Mavis with confusion, because she thought that she had done nothing wrong. Why did Mavis make her kneel down? But Iris still kneeled in front of Mavis obediently.

"If you did not say I was an S-ranked adventurer, I almost forgot!"

"Forgotten what? I don't seem to have made you angry either!"

"You and I are sisters! The S-ranked adventurers have a lot of privileges. Why are you helping those humans criticize me today? I have let you not wait in line to awaken magic today, but you're still helping those lowly humans. This makes me a bit incomprehensible. Do you still consider yourself a human? Or do you want to betray the Blood race!" Mavis said seriously.

"I did not betray the Blood race. I did not know that the awakening hall is affiliated with the adventure association. But it's indeed a bit bad to cut in line. If there are privileges, you consider today I talked nonsense." Iris's desire for survival was very strong.

"Humph! Next time if you help that group of lowly humans, I must punish you badly."

"I know! Sister! I'll never help humans again next time, so can you help me raise my summoned beast?" No matter what happens, Iris still wants Mavis to help her raise the summoned beast.

"No way! I've told you that my aunt will check the bill. If I help you raise summoned beast, the fee on my bill will increase. At that time, my aunt will definitely find it. I know I'm an S-ranked adventurer and it's relatively easy to make money. But I have to report to my aunt every time when I take a commission and get her approval before I can do it. Her control over me is stricter than you can imagine. It is much better for me to help you buy clothes for you. After all, it is very difficult to check these little expense if my aunt don’t look at the bill carefully." Mavis explained.

"Got it, sister!"

"Oh! By the way, did you ask for leave today?" Mavis asked.

"I think ...probably ... probably ... not! But it doesn't matter! It's just a matter of being called to the office to write a report."

"The end of the month is in two days. Get ready to pay the rent. If you don't have money, you can go back to the Scarlet Domain with Li Xi. At that time, my aunt will help you raise your summoned beasts." Mavis persuaded.

"No! I won't go back even if I starve to death outside with my summoned beasts." Iris refused.

"But if aunt insists on taking you back, you can't do anything about it!" Mavis said helplessly.

"I don't care. As long as I can pay the rent, Lilia has to obey the contract."

"Whatever! I'm going to school! It's up to you whether you go or not." Then Mavis left the house.

Now I have 300,000 Bella in my hand, so I can live at least another six months. But I can’t bear to pay so much money at once. After all, it’s so hard to gain the money. There is no chance to obtain so many Bella in the future.

"Alas! I don't know when this poor day will be the end." With a long sigh, Iris summoned the little white snake out of the Consciousness Space. She looked at the white snake on the sofa. After careful consideration, Iris named it White Sun.

Then Iris took out food from the spatial ring and fed it to White Sun. White Sun slowly swallowed the food.

Iris recalled why the old man and Mavis looked disappointed when they saw his summoned beast.

Iris wondered in her heart. Then she began to find something knowledge about the summoned system in the study. Iris is not a docile student in the class. As long as the knowledge is not relevant to her benefits, Iris will not care. Only when the knowledge is of importance of her, Iris will calm down and slowly understand it.

...

"Linda! Night White in your class go far too much! He didn't come to class today." Modestie was about to explode with anger.

Ever since Modestie became the teacher of Tiandu Academy, no student dared to skip her class. The first time Modestie ordered the class to run to the Forest of Light and Shadow, but Night White slept in class and thought about going home. Now he did not come to class today after the magic practice.

"Take it easy! Anger hurts the liver. Maybe Night White encountered difficulty today!" Linda tried to calm Modestie down.

"No! I'm going to go to his house and give him a home visit. I want to see what this guy is doing at home all day long." Modestie said angrily.

"A home visit? Are you joking? Night White ...is an orphan and has no parents." Linda said calmly.

"An orphan? Then how did he get in?" Modestie said in surprise.

"Luck! My sister and Night White had been hiding inside the tree cave, and then they got the quota to enter the Tiandu Academy. It seems that at that time Night White couldn't use magic, which is why Night White is the weakest freshman in the classroom. He's already way behind others in his start. Maybe he should do some simple work to get Bella now. For students, learning is the first priority. For Night White, survival is his first priority. I did not hold him responsible for his sleeping in class. To be honest, it is tiring for a child to learn and survive on his own at the same time. Besides, he is still an eleven-year-old child. It is said that Night White has never eaten in school, so Miss. Modestie, you should be sympathetic to him!"

Modestie did not say anything. She slowly got up and left the office. Then she went back to the office that belonged to her, quietly thinking about the problem of Night White.

A child has to rely on himself for everything. It is impossible to understand him without experiencing it firsthand, and it is no wonder he was so tired in his first class.

Modestie was more or less guilty when thinking about Night White’s experience. Just before everyone used the portal to return to school. But Modestie ordered Night White to run back from the Forest of Light and Shadow. Was it too much for me to do that? Modestie thought.

Maybe he wasn't fit enough to accomplish what I had set out to do.

Modestie sat in her office thinking about Night White.
