 St. Marian's dormitory is generally soundproof, so normal noises will not travel outside.

 In other words, what's going on outside must be something unusual!

 Dark frowned, and his fingers instinctively reached into his card holder.

 But after thinking about it again, he simply held the magic card between his two fingers without summoning it.

 "Crack!"

 Unlock and push the door open.

 A crack appeared, and a loud noise came from inside the door.

 It was extremely noisy, like a huge group of cats and dogs gathered together barking wildly.

 Dak's brow relaxed slightly, then furrowed even more deeply.

 He quickly squeezed into the door and locked it so that the noise wouldn't disturb the other students' rest.

 The indoor lights were on.

 The bright white lights illuminated every corner of the dormitory.

 All sorts of animals crawled all over the tables, chairs, cabinets, and shelves.

 Dark wasn't too surprised.

 He kicked the fat lion blocking the entrance, and the big cat lazily moved aside a little, making a narrow path for him to pass through.

 But ahead, two giant bears were fighting, and several monkeys were cheering and patting their butts.

 The big-mouthed orange parrot flew around in the air, its feathers falling everywhere.

 On the bird perch overhead, two lovebirds were performing a double flight.

 The snake and the meerkat were intertwined, and the meerkat's scream pierced the eardrums.

 A white tiger was lying on top of the wardrobe, snoring with its eyes closed.

 The cats and dogs were running around like idiots.

 ……

 Dak instinctively covered his forehead.

 He had never been able to do anything about these magical elves.

 If Red, the Mind Mage, is the originator of Mind Summoning, then Claire, the "Sage of Beasts," is undoubtedly the master of Mind Summoning in the modern era.

 The intelligence level of these magical elves must all be above 3.0.

 As the saying goes, "ignorance is bliss," and since Dak knew nothing in the past, he didn't think he was anything special.

 But now, seeing this scene again, one can't help but sigh that the "Sage of the Beasts" truly deserves the name of a sage.

 He slipped through the gaps between the magical elves who couldn't be steamed, boiled, roasted, fried, or stir-fried, and arrived at the balcony of his own bedroom.

 The only quiet place in the entire bedroom is the balcony.

 Claire Kate was reclining on Dak's personal lounge chair, with the restless cat grass curled up on her lap and the cow grass sleeping peacefully at her feet.

 The soft moonlight shone through the glass window of the balcony, illuminating half of her profile and revealing a hint of weariness.

 For Claire, who loves to travel the world, it was clearly quite an effort to get to Sainte-Marie in such a short time.

 The hardships of traveling are self-evident.

 Her mere presence made the surrounding atmosphere soft and gentle, and the noise behind her seemed to disappear.

 Dak stood at the balcony door for a long time.

 In youth, one is ignorant of the ways of the world, free from worries, suffering, and anxieties.

 He didn't know what Claire had gone through, and therefore couldn't understand why such a quiet person would develop such a strong alcohol addiction.

 The essence of Mind Summoning is the bond between humans and magical spirits.

 The behavior patterns of magical spirits are a reflection of their innermost thoughts.

 She appears calm on the outside, but is actually irritable on the inside.

 Think about it carefully.

 Arvit was her only remaining friend after the war.

 Dark silently absorbed the memories in his mind.

 In my memory, Claire always seemed to be sitting by the bed late at night, wiping an old photograph that she could never dry.

 How many people are in that photo?

 One, two, three...

 Is it five or six?

 ……

 Late at night.

 Claire seemed to feel a slight chill and sniffed slightly.

 There was a slight rise and fall from the chest to the abdomen.

 Dak sighed, turned around, opened the wardrobe, and took out a thick blanket.

 November is approaching winter, and the weather is turning cold.

 If you sleep like this until dawn, you're bound to catch a cold.

 He opened the balcony door, tiptoed over, picked up some cat grass, and carefully laid the blanket over her.

 "Meow-"

 Cat Grass let out a soft meow.

 Dak patted its head and tucked it into the folds of the blanket.

 ……

 After returning to the bedroom, Dark looked up at the still noisy magical spirits and summoned Impmon.

 After using "Pride II", Devimon gained a second skill.

 →【Ultimate Skill: Demonic Hypnosis】

 →【Demon Hypnosis: Emits hypnotic waves from the eyes to soothe the enemy.】

 The bedroom finally quieted down.

 Dak went into the bathroom, pulled out the few small animals that were hiding inside, and then soaked himself in the bathtub for a short nap.

 When he came out of the bathroom, he was still steaming.

 Little Devimon has already warmed up his bed.

 He simply went inside and picked up the book, "The Golden King and the Secret Treasure," to read it.

 Novels of this era were mainly serialized in magazines, and if they were well-received, they would be published as standalone books.

 Due to format limitations, long novels are not popular; short and medium-length stories are more common.

 As a novella, "The Golden King and the Secret Treasure" has a very tight plot.

 The protagonist, Joshua, and the surviving gold prospectors embark on a deep adventure in search of the Gold King's treasure.

 The entire golden city was divided into several layers due to changes in the geological strata.

 The tomb of the Golden King is also difficult to find.

 Their actions alerted the gold guards in the city, and several unlucky prospectors were cut in half.

 The blood flowing from the corpse was instantly absorbed by the ground.

 The Golden City was like a giant beast that had been thirsty for a long time finally meeting someone who brought it water, and it kept devouring one life after another.

 ……

 Dak gradually fell asleep and had a jumbled dream.

Chapter 146 Claire's Animal Realm

 Three o'clock in the morning.

 Claire woke up with a start, her forehead beaded with cold sweat.

 After she opened her eyes, she looked at the ceiling of the balcony. Her gaze went from blank to focused, and it took her a while to come to her senses.

 "You're back again."

 The layout of the tower dormitory has remained unchanged for decades; only the furniture has been updated.

 Every dormitory is a template.

 The balcony space is as cramped as ever.

 Claire is neither good at socializing nor does she feel secure.

 During my student days, I spent most of my after-school time reading books on the balcony.

 The cramped space and the house full of animals made her feel at peace.

 Speaking of animals...

 It was only then that she remembered.

 So he got up, picked up the cat grass, and glanced into the bedroom.

 But he found the magical spirits that had accompanied him for half his life sleeping peacefully in his bedroom.

 This surprised her somewhat.

 "Did Dark make it?"

 She turned to look at the bed.

 My best friend's son was snuggled in bed, with a spherical familiar with bat wings at the head of the bed.

 "bat?"

 Claire yawned, still feeling a bit sleepy.

 She pushed open the balcony door, and with a gentle shake of the magic card hidden in her sleeve, the field magic that had covered the entire bedroom naturally dissipated, and the magical spirits simultaneously turned into light and flowed into her card pack.

 Magical spirits cannot normally exist outside of magic cards for extended periods. However, Claire is known as the "Sage of Beasts," so she naturally has her own unique abilities.

 Whether it's the small-scale field card "Zoo" or the large-scale field card "Animal Kingdom," both can permanently materialize "Bird and Beast" type magical spirits.

 Once the Field Card is activated, the area covered by the Field Magic becomes her Animal Domain!

 ……

 Claire entered the bedroom, placed the catnip in the bedside basket, and then looked at Dark on the bed with a flicker in her eyes.

 Before she arrived here, she had already inquired about Dak's current situation from many people.

 But based on her past understanding of him and what she had heard over the years, she always felt that something was wrong.

 How can someone who can't even stick to the most basic sword-wielding training become the model student with all-round development in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics and labor in the mouths of those people?

 But the blanket she was holding seemed to be silently stating a fact.

 "Have you really grown up?"

 Claire bent down, her eyes gleaming, and carefully examined the boy she hadn't seen for several years.

 "But it still looks so small."

 She reached out and poked Dark's cheek, her eyes shining brighter and brighter.

 ……

 Six o'clock sharp.

 Dak suddenly woke up with a start.

 He had all sorts of weird dreams all night.
