Chapter 14 Princess (Ch 14)

“How did you do it?” She blinked her eyes in confusion, her voice cool and crisp.

“What?”

The silver-haired girl looked surprised: “Freeze that monster where it is!”

She continued hesitantly, “Generally speaking…some divine tablets have special powers that can freeze people.”

“But I only saw you take a step back, and the monster suddenly stopped moving.”

“During this process, I didn’t see you use the magic card.”

Zhou Ke didn’t want to reveal that he used the 7 of Hearts. After all, in yesterday’s [Bloodline Test], his magic card was the K of Clubs.

Normally, a person can only own one kind of magic card.

“Ah, I don’t understand either. I guess you were stunned by my handsomeness.”

He deliberately made a joke to divert the other party’s attention and make her ignore the problem.

The man on the other side seemed to see Zhou Ke’s intention, smiled slightly, and said very considerately: “Forget it, I shouldn’t ask.”

“Hello, my name is Su Chenxi, thank you for saving me.”

The girl performed a slight aristocratic etiquette, her posture was standard, elegant and dignified.

Zhou Ke took out a piece of toilet paper and silently wiped the blood off his face.

“You’re welcome. My name is Zhou Ke.”

Su Chenxi’s expression changed: “Ke Zhou?”

“Are you the one from yesterday, who was born a commoner, had a magic element level of 43 points, and killed the Skull and Bones assassin?”

Zhou Ke nodded silently and asked:

“You are the freshman whose magic card was the Queen of Spades yesterday.”

“I saw you use your superpowers. So, the superpower of the Queen of Spades is: to create weapons without limit?”

Zhou Ke has a good memory. Among the students who attended the school yesterday, she was the only one with conspicuous silver hair.

Su Chenxi did not hide it and admitted directly: “Yes, this is a combat ability. But I can only use weapons that I am good at.”

Zhou Ke smiled bitterly and said:

“Speaking of which, we just used the divine card in front of civilians and killed someone. Will the school expel us?”

He still remembered that on the night of his 18th birthday, he performed a wonderful magic trick and was treated as a supernatural being by the police.

At that time, the police were very strict with him and threatened to sentence him to death.

Su Chenxi shook his head:

“That man is a murderous monster affiliated with the Skull and Bones Society.”

“They have lost their humanity and will only follow their trainers’ orders to kill, automatically searching for qualified targets to kill.”

“He is not considered a human. Using supernatural powers in front of him is considered a special case and the law provides exemptions.”

“Besides, I’ll tell my father too. Don’t worry.”

Father… Zhou Ke understood when he heard this word.

The girl opposite was indeed a noble lady, and her family was powerful.

Moreover, based on the tentacle monster’s previous instructions, Zhou Ke already knew the identity of this girl.

“So, as a noble, why do you want to take the subway?” Zhou Ke finally asked the question that had interested him from the beginning.

She smiled and said, “You don’t think I’m the kind of noble lady who has a lot of airs, do you?”

“In fact, I have always believed that the gap between nobles and commoners should be narrowed so that society can treat everyone equally.”

“So, I came here today to experience what it’s like to catch the subway and set an example.”

Then she sighed again:

“However, this actually attracted the assassins from the Skull and Bones Society.”

“Because of the monster’s behavior, his order should be: kill all the nobles.”

Zhou Ke raised his head:

“But I’m not a noble.”

She chuckled:

“No need to hide it. Although everyone says you are from a commoner family, your magic element level is so high that you can only be a high-ranking noble.”

“Also, that dagger of yours is obviously a noble item.”

dagger?

Zhou Ke looked at his right hand.

In his hand he still gently held the dagger that had killed the monster, with blood still dripping from the tip of the sword.

“This dagger is well made.” Su Chenxi praised.

Zhou Ke still shook his head:

“This dagger was left to me by my parents. I’m sure they were both civilians.”

“As for why I have magic essence and was given a divine tablet…”

“It’s just an exception.”

Su Chenxi lowered his head and thought: “If you are really a civilian… then what is the order that the Skull and Bones monster received? Kill all the students of the Divine Card School?”

Zhou Ke did not respond.

He remembered the tentacle monster’s voice.

【Royal blood… erased.】

…

“arrive.”

The subway slowly entered the station.

After getting off the platform, they saw the spire of a building in the school from afar.

There were huge crowds of people.

“Mr. Zhou, I have to go first. Thank you again for your help on the train. I owe you a favor and I will repay you later.”

“Well, goodbye.” Zhou Ke said goodbye to her.

To be honest, Zhou Ke had a good first impression of this girl named Su Chenxi.

She is obviously a noble lady, but she takes the subway to go to school.

Moreover, he didn’t seem to have any aristocratic airs at all and was very polite.

Zhou Ke thought of Ye Lingtian.

Ye Lingtian held the family emblem high up, with his nose pointed toward the sky, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was a noble.

They are all aristocrats, but there is a big difference between them.

“Wow, Zhou Ke, you’re finally here!” Someone patted him on the back.

Zhang Yang laughed:

“How are you? Are you nervous? Are you happy? The freshman entrance ceremony is about to begin!”

…

All the freshmen crowded into the auditorium of Shenpai College.

Every student was communicating excitedly and observing the layout of the auditorium.

In front of the auditorium is a large stage with shining lights.

Below the stage were rows of chairs already filled with freshmen.

Zhou Ke and Zhang Yang found a seat near the back and sat down.

“Hey, I just heard from the person in front of me that the king’s daughter is also going to school this year!”

“I wonder what this princess looks like? She’s from a royal family, so she shouldn’t be bad…”

“We’ll be classmates in the future. Who knows, maybe something will happen between me and the princess. Hehehe.”

Zhang Yang has already started fantasizing.

Zhou Ke was not as excited as Zhang Yang, and just continued the conversation in a disjointed manner:

“Since she is a princess, she must be very proud. How could she be interested in a little noble like you?”

They continued chatting about meaningless things.

The entrance ceremony begins.

A senior student came to the stage and read out in standard Mandarin:

“Teachers, students, welcome to the Shenpai Academy…”

“…Now, the entrance ceremony officially begins. Please invite the principal to come to the stage and give a speech!”

After saying this, the senior host stepped down from the stage.

The freshmen were extremely excited and were all waiting for the principal to show up.

But as time passed, no one came on stage.

Everyone looked at each other curiously, and the whispers in the seats became louder and louder.

“Ahem, the principal seems to be delayed by something. Let’s skip this step for now.”

In the audience, a young female professor stood up and took control of the situation.

Seeing her in red, Zhou Ke immediately recognized her as Professor Chen Yun.

“First, please invite the freshman representatives to come to the stage and give a speech!” After saying that, Professor Chen Yun was the first to applaud.

The students in the audience also burst into applause.

“According to past practice, only the nobles have this right. This year, it will probably be the young master of the Ye family, right?”

“Hey, you didn’t know that the royal princess is also enrolling this year! She must be a princess!”

Zhou Ke heard such a discussion nearby.

Accompanied by applause, an eye-catching figure slowly walked onto the stage.

“Hiss——” All the freshmen’s attention was attracted.

A young girl in a flowing long dress and with silver hair draped over her shoulders walked onto the stage.

The girl was delicate and elegant, wearing high heels, and walked slowly to the microphone.

“Ke Zhou, look! The goddess has descended to earth!!!” Zhang Yang next to him was drooling.

Zhou Ke did not respond immediately.

His eyes fell on the girl’s left wrist.

The girl wore a silver bracelet on her fair wrist.

She spoke in a clear voice:

“Hello everyone, I am Su Chenxi.”

“Ahhhhhhh!!! The voice is so beautiful!” Zhang Yang almost screamed and jumped up.
