Chapter 8

On the way back from the rooftop, Qin Ying's heart was pounding fiercely, and the temperature on her cheeks remained high. It was probably because the actions on the rooftop were too intimate...
This was a bad habit left over from the time when she was still Dragon. Embracing the girl she admired from behind and using her own arm to protect her. I liked that feeling, the feeling of being able to protect the person I cared about. But... my power is still not enough, far from enough.
My chance hasn't come yet, I still need to wait. Even if I can confirm where the golden light is in which realm, it's difficult to ensure that I can easily obtain it. And what the golden light contains is still a mystery.
"Let's go back! I'll temporarily switch back to the white dominant body. Exchanging too many times in front of others will inevitably raise suspicions."
"I don't think many people suspect Demon Dragon..."
"Shh! Let's try to mention this as little as possible. Until we can eliminate the suspicion of The Divine Realm, don't say anything. The Divine Realm was able to plant so many spies in the Qin family for years, so it's even easier in this place with complex personnel."
"That's true, it's a dangerous situation."
"Let's live peacefully for a while. I want to go to The Demon Realm during winter break!"
"Alone...?"
"Ah!" Maybe the answer was a bit vague, tears welled up in Qin Ying's eyes.
"Alright, I'll think about it for another month before deciding." Patting Qin Ying's head, White changed back to his own body and went back to class. Before entering the classroom, he said something.
"Actually, Black missed one point. The student council president has the right to live with a girl."
"I... have this privilege?"
"Why else would the principal give me the authority? He probably thought it was just a title!"
I feel like crying.

I don't know how long I've been skipping class since this morning, but I just go to class when there is one. I enjoy the leisure.
"Um, Xiaoyang." Chatting with classmates during class is a common habit, it has always been in every era.
"Yao?"
"How is Wenxin doing these days? It's been many days since her parents were silently declared dead. Is she okay?" Yao cares a lot about Wenxin, not only as an older sister but also as a friend. Moreover, they have been friends and neighbors for over ten years.
"She's doing fine! After all, Yu Zhe has found the souls of my adoptive parents. Being the High Priest, they have privileges even in death."
"Privileges?"
"The High Priest is a profession that connects multiple dimensional worlds. Their consciousness often travels in a vague form. Before the gates of gods and demons are fully opened, the High Priest mainly serves as a bridge between The Human Realm and the world of gods and demons. Now they are explorers of more unknown worlds. When they die, they have the privilege of staying in The Human Realm for twice as long as ordinary people. Normally, the souls of ordinary people can only stay for seven days after death, but the High Priest has fourteen days. Wenxin's parents were found just in time on the fourteenth day, so they were very lucky not to be taken back to the underworld by the messengers."
"The messengers of the underworld, you mean 'Death Gods'?"
"'Death Gods' is another term. Their arrival signifies the true death of a person."
"So, Uncle and Aunt can be resurrected? We can see Wenxin's smile again! I can't bear to see her in despair, it's too painful."
"We still need to find their bodies! It's best to find them before the end of the fourteen-day deadline, otherwise the 'Death Gods' will come knocking."
Maybe Lilith couldn't stand our conversation anymore, she couldn't help but speak softly, "You two, talk about your family matters in your own rooms. Don't chat in class! You've trampled all over the student council's discipline."
"Oh, right! Lilith's father is the King of the Underworld, can he help us?"
"Don't even think about it. He is someone who likes to handle things fairly and impartially. He doesn't do anything that involves favoritism. The Demon Realm follows freedom, and that's his freedom."
The Human Realm always says that time changes people, but this old guy, the King of the Underworld, hasn't changed at all, or maybe he has become even more stubborn as he gets older.
Come to think of it, the King of the Underworld is already old in The Demon Realm, and Lilith, his daughter, must be of unknown age, even though she looks like she's only in her teens.
"The deadline is tonight, I believe I can handle it with the help of Yu Zhe." I hold two spirit crystals in my hand, given to me by Yu Zhe. These are magic crystals that contain the souls of Wenxin's parents. I feel more at ease when they are with me.
"Qin Yang, pay attention in class and answer the questions. Let's solve this function!" This is a math class, and math comes from The Human Realm. It has been of great help to humans in the field of magic. The Human Realm values math more than ever before.
For me, solving a math problem is not difficult...
"Ah~~~~~~" I lie on the rooftop, originally here to enjoy the warm sunlight, but...
"Now that you're the president, you have to take care of this."
"Why? Why do I have to be involved in planning the party?" During lunchtime, Li Liu brought the entire student council here. You see, the third grade is in a different building from the first and second grades. With so many people here instead of the activity room, aren't they afraid of scaring others?
"Planning the party to celebrate is the responsibility of the student council president and the entire student council. Moreover, the party is held as part of the intercollegiate competition, and we are the hosts, so we have even more responsibility."
"Li Liu, can't you have the meeting in the afternoon in the activity room? Why come here? Look, there are so many eyes watching us!"
The whole student council came out to sunbathe, which is rare, except for Elena. It's a small regret for the audience.
"The student council president must always be prepared to be watched." Looking back at Elena's style, there is no doubt that she was the center of attention, a golden-haired girl who was always ready to be looked at.
"But... never mind, what's the first item on the agenda?"
"The theme of the dance." Tesha picked up her pen and eagerly took notes.
Since it's a celebration dance, the theme must be joyful... how about a masquerade? We can select the best-dressed person, give out some small gifts, and have some fun performances. It's not difficult at all.
"Masquerade?"
"Rewards?" The girls seem to be very interested in my casual ideas. I've come up with a plan, now I can enjoy the sunlight without being disturbed.
"What should we dress up as?" Qiong and her sister Yao began to discuss quietly.
"I want to wear my cat ear costume. I'm sure I'll win!" Hanya's cat girl costume, it's been a while, but her curiosity is still strong.
"The question is, what will the prize be?"
"Let's use Qin Ying's room as the prize. Qin Ying is too cunning, he doesn't plan to reveal his identity and keeps living with Xiao Yang. It's not fair." Yao, this is what you really think, right?
"Huh?" Qin Ying looks innocent.
"No, as the older brother's sister, this room originally belongs to me. Why should it be used as a prize?" Wenxin, what's wrong with you?
"Living together!" Qiong is about to bite her tongue.
"Hey, can you guys stop ignoring me when you discuss?!" Obviously, my words are powerless, they have no effect in highlighting my presence.
"Girls in love are crazy, completely ignoring whether this prize is attractive to others." Qing, Lilith, and Qingqing didn't participate in Hanya's discussion. Instead, the three of them sat together and chatted, clearly mocking Hanya and the others.
"Qin Yang, why are you here? They are still discussing your living together issue over there!"
"Lilith, haven't you noticed that they didn't leave a seat for me? Obviously, I should just stay on the side."
