Chapter 199: The Dark Demon's Bible

In any case, at least Simmons himself seemed quite happy.

Maybe this was the best Christmas present for him.

...

Dark quietly left the tavern and back on the Traveller Street that has been crowded since noon. Even walking on a slightly secluded path, there were still cheerful laughters that could be heard.

But at this moment, Dark’s mind had gradually calmed down.

Although the war has ended, the residual sorrow has not stopped.

Today's peace and laughter were the sacrifices of the older generation.

Whether it was Professor Lily or Professor Silver, they left behind irreparable regrets.

...

The weather at Christmas was surprisingly good.

When Dark returned to the dormitory, he was stopped by someone in the common room.

"Dark Demon, a gift from someone." The second-year female student named Mary was reading a book on the sofa with her long legs crossed. After calling him, she pointed to the two gifts on the table.

Dark walked over in surprise and said politely, "Thank you, senior."

Mary made a ? gesture, and then continued to read her book.

Dark picked up two presents from the table, curious.

"Who else will give me a Christmas present?"

He could guess that one of them could be Emma's return gift. But he wasn’t sure about the other one.

Could it be Eudora?

But Eudora is also a Noble House student, so she doesn’t need to ask this senior to deliver the gift for her.

So who is it?

Dark didn't check it immediately, but first found a seat in the common room and sat down.

During this time, most of the students were playing in Traveller Street, so the common room was relatively empty, and there was no need to worry about being disturbed.

Dark put the two gift boxes on the table and looked at them in a mood.

The gift on the left was a square box wrapped in pink, a little girly, probably Emma's.

The gift on the right was wrapped in a Christmas gift box, which was quite heavy.

"The surprise should of course be kept at the end."

Dark picked out the pink gift, then unwrapped it, revealing a gift box.

He opened the gift box, revealing a smaller gift box.

He opened the smaller gift box, revealing an even smaller gift box.

He then opened the even smaller gift box...

"Is she playing with me?" Dark’s lips twitched. Only after he opened nine gift boxes did he finally see the real gift.

It was an ancient gold coin!

The specifications of this ancient gold coin were not up to standard, but the material used was very special. The portrait on the front was a little blurry, but it was vaguely recognizable that it was a person wearing a crown, which should be the king at that time.

The back of the coin was carved with buildings similar to a golden pagoda, reminding people of the eight murals.

The moment Dark saw this, everything was connected in his mind.

The eight murals were not created out of thin air.

It was because Emma entered the secret passage that the murals were created.

Dark was just a third party involved.

He frowned slightly and picked up the Christmas card that was pressed under the gold coin.

On the small card, the image of a Christmas girl was simply drawn, and the name of [Emma Mortis] was written in ancient characters next to it.

"Sure enough, it was given by Emma. This is getting a little bit troublesome."

The value of this ancient gold coin was much more valuable than a box of apple juice.

He couldn't accept unequal gifts from his peers.

"However, since it is a gift, I cannot just give it back. I can only find a way to return a gift of equal value in the future."

...

Putting away the Christmas card and the ancient gold coin, Dark's eyes turned to another gift.

If nothing else, this gift was really heavy!

He stopped looking at it and opened the gift box directly.

This time there was no strange design.

Inside the gift box lay a whole set of books quietly!

That was the super bestseller series - "Alibaba's Fourteen Forms of Dragon Slaying"!

And it was from the first volume to the seventh volume, a total of seven!

"Who sent this?"

Dark was a little taken aback.

He immediately picked up the Christmas card placed on top of the book.

A very common card style, the same type of gift card that Dark got for free when he bought something from the travel street.

When he opened the Christmas card, he saw the names of the givers.

"White and Robert?"

Dark looked at it over and over again and was surprised that it was indeed a gift from the two.

"Haven't they given up on raising my favorability?"

In any case, when one receives a gift, one must give a return gift.

Dark thought for a while, then took the entire set of "Alibaba's Fourteen Forms of Dragon Slaying" back to the dormitory. He put it away, and then went out again.

...

That night.

When White and Robert returned from Traveller Street, they received a gift from Dark from a classmate.

The two of them looked at each other, entered White's dormitory with gifts, and stared at each other for a long time.

Robert hesitated: "We got Christmas presents?"

White nodded slightly, with a slightly bitter tone: "Mhm, the first one except for the one we gave to each other."

Robert suddenly woke up: "That's not right! As long as we give out a gift, there will be a return gift. So why should we wait for someone else to give us a gift first?"

White: "..."

In fact, even the set of "Alibaba's Fourteen Forms of Dragon Slaying" was delivered to Dark by accident.

Although White had thought of using a Christmas gift to gain Dark's favorability two months ago, since then, he gradually forgot about it because he had a crisis of trust in [Forbidden Love].

He originally wanted to give this set of super best-selling books to Pandora-senpai as a Christmas present. But when he finally mustered up the courage to find a Magister House senior to inquire about Pandora’s whereabouts, he learned that Pandora senpai had left for a long trip last night.

Because of this, this gift naturally wouldn’t be able to be delivered to Pandora.

Christmas gifts were very time-sensitive, and they would basically lose their meaning if they were not delivered on Christmas day.

White was very disappointed by this.

But since the gift had been bought, it shouldn't be wasted, right?

Thanks to Robert's reminder, he remembered the mission of unlocking favorabilities.

As long as he could raise Dark's favorability to 80, he would be able to unlock a reward.

Although he didn't really want to give the gift to Dark at that time, at Robert's instigation, he still gave it half-heartedly.

It was just that he didn't expect Dark to give gifts in return so quickly, and it was one for each person.

Robert: "What gift would it be?"

White: "It looks like a book."

Robert thought about it: "Because we gave him books, it makes sense that he will give us books too."

White: "Let’s stop guessing. We can just open it and find out."

Robert: "Together?"

White: "Mhm!"

So the two very solemnly opened the two gifts at the same time!

The gift box contained books, as expected.
