Chapter 5: Conversation Between "Two People"
update icon Updated at 2023/8/4 12:10:12

"Knock, knock."

"Come in!"

I am currently standing outside the principal's office, having received a notice for a meeting with the principal. I was informed by the vice president that it is probably regarding the incident three days ago.

However, it's strange. Shouldn't it be the president's responsibility to report to the principal? What does this lowly assistant have to say?

"Principal!"

"Come sit over here!" The principal, playing with her golden hair, motioned for me to sit on the couch next to her.

What does this old lady want? It's a fact that women, regardless of age, love beauty. I wonder why I can see it. In fact, anyone who has been to this office would know, as high-end cosmetics can be seen everywhere in this spacious office!

"Take a seat! No need to be too formal, and don't look around. It's impolite to pry into a young girl's belongings!"

"Oh, okay!" I picked up the cup of tea brought by the principal's secretary and sipped it delicately. In reality, it's just a way to conceal my embarrassment!

Besides, you mentioned a young girl, but my parents haven't even been born yet!

Principal Gufei left her chair and walked elegantly towards me.

"Principal, did you ask me to skip class and come here just to have tea?"

"Well, I wanted to clear some things up!" The principal sat next to me naturally and calmly. Strangely, I felt quite relaxed. Usually, people who can speak with the principal are quite nervous!

"If it's about what happened three days ago, there's no need to ask. I don't know any more than the president and the others, if not even less!"

"Oh, it seems Li Liu has already told you something, right?"

"He did mention a few things."

"Although you say you don't know much, I believe you know the most! For example: the Seven Stars, Nofis, your engagement with Elena, and that silver-haired boy who controls the Fiery Black Flames!" The principal faced me seriously, slowly getting closer.

"Huh? I'm sorry, Principal, but I don't know what you're talking about. I have no clue, including why the Seven Stars summoned Nofis or any details about the engagement!"

"Really? On the evening of that day, I had a discussion with Zhanlantian. I received information from him that the memories of the people present at that time were all abnormal, indicating that someone tampered with their memories. According to President Zhanlantian's description, that silver-haired boy who controls the Fiery Black Flames, shares about 90% resemblance to you!"

"So, it's the remaining 10% that doesn't match!"

"That's why you're here now."

"But...wait a minute. You said their memories were tampered with, right? That means it's impossible for me to be the one! The memories of someone who has had their memory altered cannot be trusted! It's an indisputable theorem!"

"Xiaoyanger, you were a talented researcher of Magic theory after all! You haven't forgotten about memory restoration, have you? Although restoring memories is a hundred times more difficult than modifying memories, it doesn't mean no one can do it! Like the Divine One!" The principal smiled, playfully pointing at her own nose with her clean and slender index finger.

"Yes, Principal?"

"Right, right! But unfortunately, due to the success rate of restoration being dependent on the resistance of the subject being cast upon, so far, I've only restored the memories of that stupid principal!"

"That stupid principal?"

"Don't worry about that! Also, finding that remaining 10% probability isn't difficult." The principal waved her finger again, and holographic projections appeared on the tea table. She continued to approach me, and I reluctantly moved to the edge of the couch. "You won't tell me that you're not familiar with these files, right?"

"Uh! How did you get these files?"

"Qin Yang, conducting research on both Light Magic and Dark Magic is illegal! You can't possibly be unaware of it!"

"But does that have anything to do with the remaining 10% probability?"

"So, you admit that these research files belong to you!"

"No, I don't know them!" Do you think I'm a fool?

"Oh! Do I need to test your honesty?" The principal held me in her arms, her clothes and skin tightly touching mine. My brain was already severely congested. I kept squirming, trying to escape from the sweet trap-like embrace.

"Principal, what are you...""Look into my eyes!"

"I... Oops, control magic! But it's too late to salvage now. It feels like my soul and body are being separated. My body stops struggling, but my soul keeps screaming, yet it receives no response!"

The principal spoke gently, "Answer me, are these documents yours?"

Absolutely not! But my mouth said, "Yes, they're mine!"

"Good, then you can use the Fire of the Demon!"

"I can!" How is it possible? My body is answering with answers I don't even know! What exactly is happening?

"You are the silver-haired teenager, correct?"

"Yes!"

"That magic the idiot principal used is neither light magic nor holy magic! What is it exactly?"

How would I know? "Original Light Magic - Pure Yang!" Hey, why am I saying something about original light magic that I've never heard of? It feels like I am talking about someone else altogether.

"Although you have never used your body for those things, your body's memory still remembers because your body did indeed do those things."

In my soul world, I see another version of myself, a silver-haired young boy.

"This voice, was it you before?"

"Hehe, don't look at me like that. I'm not a possessing demon. We have been together since birth."

"Soul twins?"

"Ah, it's almost like that! You're confused about why there are so many secrets that you don't know about on your body."

"Secrets that I don't know about? Indeed, I don't understand anything about these Flame Manipulators, Original Light Magic, or the engagement. But when I see you, I think I might know some things already. You are responsible for all of this!"

"Not entirely me, some things you did yourself. For example, the trouble with Xiao Qiong, that was caused by you, not me."

"Hey, how did I cause it? What did I do without even realizing?"

"Hahaha! Just know that it was a coincidental coincidence. The specifics will become clear to you once you overcome your heart! "

"Overcome my heart? What do you mean by overcoming my heart?"

"That matter from ten years ago, if you don't step out of that shadow, our plan cannot be realized! Work hard, another me. Alright, let's end the conversation here. I don't know what that witch will ask if we continue. For the details, ask Elena! Goodbye!"

"Hey! Ah!" It's another blinding light trying to blind me!
