Chapter 1019: Chapter 754: Sword Maiden’s Ga (Part 2)
At first glance, Sonia seems romantic, being willing to give up her title and career for her love. But from another angle, her significant sacrifices surely demand an enormous return—unless one is utterly clueless, nobody would believe Sonia Sevi is a naive girl who gives without seeking repaynt.
However, despite her strong desire for control, she remains anxious because it only indicates one thing: her power is not enough to control this relationship.
This theory can narrow down the choices to the extre, or even… zero.
Throughout the Kingdom of Stars, whether it’s the forces behind or personal capabilities, candidates who could make the clawing Sword Saint lose confidence are few—there’s not a single one who ets the other screening conditions.
That’s why Aisha easily gave away this information: even the Strategy Group now thinks ‘Sonia’s boyfriend’ might just be a taphysical philosophical concept.
But only the dormitory trio knows Sonia’s boyfriend truly exists, certainly not an illusion of Sonia’s imagination.
The reason is, Sonia’s temper has beco increasingly capricious due to not seeing her boyfriend these days.
At first, they thought it was period-related influence, but the four of them had long synchronized their cycles, so Sonia had no reason to be early—nor to last over a month. Also, it’s not the first ti this happened. When Sonia can’t log into the Void Realm, her mood undergoes dramatic changes, aligning well with symptoms of a long-distance relationship.
Rather than believe the boyfriend is imaginary, Lois and the others prefer to think Sonia’s boyfriend is the Fish-Slicing Dragon transford.
But in previous ‘long-distance phases,’ the Village Girl was mostly downcast and worn out, occasionally singing love songs with richer emotions, not affecting dorm life much.
This ti is different; Sonia’s mood swings these days are like a roller coaster, reaching a dreadful state intolerable to her roommates. If one must compare, it’s like a tigress in heat forcibly moved away from the male tiger.
The truth isn’t hard to guess: Sonia’s relationship took swift progress and then suddenly beca unable to et, lasting for so long—anyone would find it unbearable.
So they wanted to find Sonia’s boyfriend, not for gossip, but to hope soone could soothe this red-haired beast in the dorm. Ingrid even asked Professor Trozan for help, which resulted in Trozan’s office being exploded by their swordsmanship Miracle the next day.
“What should we do?” Adelle fretted, “She’s almost done with her cultivation and coming back!”
Clap!
Ingrid clapped strongly, “I have a solution.”
She looked around, “My soul has recovered, I’ll go stay overnight at the ditation Building from now on.”
“I’ll be good tomorrow.” Lois nodded, “I’ll just go ho to hide tonight, and join you at the ditation Building tomorrow.”
“You two bastards!” Adelle gritted her teeth, “Is being a Mage that great? Just you wait, I… I… how about you take with you too, I can just find a room to sleep in.”
“Just kidding.” Lois said, “We have to solve the problem, if we let Sonia continue like this, who knows what will happen. If we don’t ease her inner repressed emotions, we’ll suffer during classes, not just at night.”
Ingrid looked at Lois for a while before slowly sitting down and saying, “So it was a joke…”
“How do you plan to ease her inner emotions? By sleeping in the sa bed for so girl talk?” Adelle raised her hand and said, “I’m not capable; it’s not because I’m scared, I just can’t share a bed with anyone other than my fiancé…”
“Last night who saw Sonia staring at a wooden sword in the middle of the night and got scared into my bed?” Lois said.
“It was your bed, not mine.” Adelle shrugged, “Your bed, your rules.”
“I didn’t expect good suggestions from you guys; luckily I was prepared.” Lois pulled out a box from under the desk, “To deal with wild beasts, you need a trap.”
The other two focused their eyes, “Alcohol?”
“What can make a beast drop its guard better than alcohol?” Lois said seriously, “When she cos back, we’ll—”
Tap.
As the steel-bottod bootsteps began echoing on the stairs, it was like the Silent Miracle spreading, and the entire dorm building quickly quieted down.
The already closed dorm room let out a sigh of relief, while students in the not yet closed rooms hurried back to their seats, covering their mouths and holding their breath, afraid to make a sound or move.
Tap, tap, tap.
The steps seed to tread upon the hearts of everyone. Those with little courage lay motionless on their desks, while the braver ones dared only glance at the corridor with their peripheral vision.
They saw a streak of blood-red drifting through the corridor, as she passed a room without a closed door, the Magic Power-induced gust swept through the central hall, chilling everyone, their spines freezing.
Tap, tap, tap.
After the familiar thirty-six steps, the terrifying Monster paused in front of her dorm room as usual, turned the door handle. When she returned to her lair, the entire dormitory building relaxed, and the stagnant air beca free-flowing again.
“Sonia, you’re back.” Lois greeted.
“Yes, I’m back.”
Long hair casually draped behind, a lovely face untouched by makeup; her eyes reflected the loneliness of the Deep Sea, her lips bore no expression. The red-haired girl closed the dormitory door, put the sword bag next to the wardrobe, pulled out her chair, and sat down.
“What’s this?” She pointed to a gold-powdered bronze box on the desk.
“A gift maze from soone unknown.” Ingrid said, “The sender said the gift giver’s business card is inside the maze box, but you have to solve this expensive fun maze to know who it is.”
The red-haired girl gently nodded and raised her fist.
Bang!
Faced with the Holy Domain Mage’s all-out strike, the maze box was imdiately smashed and shattered thoroughly, with such force that the fragnts even poked into the desk below. She took the business card hidden inside, and said in a low voice, “Corum Audris… I’ve rembered.”
With that, her fingers crumbled the card to dust.
The roommates silently mourned for that unknown yet thoughtful noble—didn’t bother investigating the recipient’s ntal state before gifting? Having provoked, none of us can save you.
“Oh right,” Lois dragged out the case of cocktails, “No classes tomorrow morning, let’s play a drinking ga! Drinking in the Secret Garden wasn’t enjoyable, the most comforting place is the dorm.”
“Great!”
“Count in.”
Adelle and Ingrid imdiately chid in.
The red-haired girl slowly turned her head and asked, “What drinking ga?”
“Just… play ‘Never Have I Ever’?” Lois suggested, “Everyone says sothing they’ve never done, if soone has done it, they drink; if nobody has, the person who spoke drinks, how about it?”
Surely a simple yet dramatic drinking ga, Adelle almost forgot her original aim and eagerly nodded, shouting to play. Ingrid naturally had no objection, and the red-haired girl thought for a mont, then nodded.
“Let start then!”
When the four each picked up a bottle, Lois pondered, deciding not to spike Sonia blatantly—to start, just relaxed enough to improve Sonia’s mood.
Let’s use Sonia’s favorite romantic drama as an opening right!
“Never have I ever…” Lois said, “Fought with another woman over a man.”
