Chapter 281 Dark Demon Walks Into The Moon 2 in 1
Dianna's duel had its own brilliance.
On the surface, it seemed that she won because her deck was good enough, but the calmness and quick wisdom she showed in the duel was not something that an average person could compare.
If one hadn't seen her duel, one wouldn't have thought that this silly little fool would be able to perform so well.
After analyzing Dianna's duel, Professor Jones began to analyze Justin Wayne's duel as well.
The sunny boy from Knight House had a unique tactical and mental approach, and the only thing that seemed to have prevented him from winning was the quality of his magic cards.
Professor Jones did not criticize him for his defeat, but instead gave him great praise.
Basically, she used her own words and actions to show her attitude toward students' winnings and losses.
And immediately, Professor Jones finally started to analyze Dark Demon's duel in the anticipation of the students,
But now, Professor Jones explained the duel personally, so the students could learn more while maintaining interest.
However, she did not focus on the strength of Dark's deck or anything else this time, but only on the dueling techniques, and analyzed them to some extent.
"One of the mistakes that beginners often make when dueling is the habit of using all the magic cards they already have in their hands. It's great if they can overwhelm the opponent. If not, it'll be disastrous!"
"So in a duel, learning to keep some cards in your hand is crucial."
"Dark Demon has done very well in this duel and is worth learning for most people."
After some selective remarks, Professor Jones moved on to another topic.
"In addition, today I also want to take this opportunity to talk about the command of a magical spirit during the duel."
"As we all know, a magical spirit's intelligence level is only 2.5, and it does not have a completely developed mind. Their actions mostly require a magister to command."
"Although there is a delay in the process of issuing, receiving, and implementing commands, and the battles between magical spirits are generally simple, directly, and without any tactics, the importance of command remains unquestionable."
"Many people are accustomed to shouting orders when commanding, as if magical spirits would only be able to hear this way."
"But in fact, we have another more 'civil' method of command......"
Professor Jones took out a magic card, placed it between her index and middle fingers, and displayed it slightly in front of the students.
Then she rubbed her fingers, making the magic card spin at her fingertip.
Immediately, a pink, light, balloon-like magical spirit shot out from the face of the card and took shape in the air.
"Dark Demon has used this method many times during this duel."
"This is my [Floating Yoyo]."
The [Floating Yoyo] was an ornamental magical spirit that had 0 offense and defense.
Professor Jones blew at the Floating Yoyo, making it wobble all the way toward the students.
Professor Jones held the magic card steady, injected a trace of magic energy into her fingertip, and placed the [Floating Yoyo] magic card near her lips. As she whispered a few words to the magic card, the [Floating Yoyo] immediately began to fly in circles, making a "heart" pattern in the air.
"By simply using your magic energy to draw a special magic circle in the magic card, and continuously injecting magic energy, you can use the magic card as a relay station and make the magical spirit listen to your command through your words." She continued explaining.
"The advantage of this commanding method is that you can command the magical spirit remotely, and do not need to worry about exposing your tactics."
"The disadvantage is that it requires a large amount of magic energy to maintain."
"For magisters who don't have an abundance of magic energy, it can be used selectively to protect the secrecy of the tactics."
......
Dark did not expect his little secret to be exposed so quickly.
He leaned back in his chair and sighed slightly.
In fact, this kind of command method had already been written in the textbook of dueling class. It just hadn't been taught to the students before, and Dark just learned and mastered it in advance.
After all, although shouting in the middle of a duel would sometimes make the duel more exciting, most of the time, it would make the dueler look like a fool.
Unless it was at the right moment, and the words naturally came out, otherwise Dark didn't like that meaningless shouting.
Besides, it was too inelegant for an aristocrat to do that.
As for the magic energy amount, Dark was already not inferior to an ordinary adult magister at the moment.
......
In the duel with Elvis Kevin, Dark used this method frequently, issuing extremely detailed commands to his magical spirits.
For example, telling [Shuckle] when to use its ultimate, and alerting [Gatomon] when to dodge, etc.
Of course, there were also times when he couldn't help but shout out, like commanding [Ditto] to transform.
His victory in the duel with Elvis Kevin was the result of a combination of factors, not just a deck advantage as some people thought!
In his analysis paper on his own duel, Dark also highlighted the superiority of this command method.
......
After explaining Dark's duel, Professor Jones went on to explain White, Emma, and Sara's duel, before the class ended.
No homework was assigned today.
......
Then, in the second class on Tuesday morning, the nightmare, Arithmetic Class, struck again!
Professor Lily put the "papers" away five minutes before class and then, after flipping through them a bit and finding all the papers filled to the brim. She nodded in satisfaction and continued with her equations lesson.
However, except for the Noble House students and the few top students, most of the students did not even have a good foundation, so it was impossible for them to understand the more in-depth lessons.
Unfortunately, this reality would not be clear until Professor Lily "personally" corrected the homework.
......
In Tuesday afternoon's History of Magic Class.
Professor Ryan Hex seemed to have found some history books. In this class, he actually started to talk about modern history for the first time.
It was a bit like a real magic history lesson now!
......
In Wednesday morning's Magic Potion Class.
Professor Thompson taught a potion called "Melatonin Soup". It was said that this potion could keep people awake during the night, which was said to be a boon to those who liked to stay up late at night.
The boys' eyes were wide open when they heard this, and they all listened extremely carefully to the lecture.
It seemed that with this Melatonin Soup, playing another billion games overnight would not be a dream.
......
In the subsequent summoning class, Professor Silver explained in more detail the points of attention of Normal Summoning Spell and tribute summoning, especially tribute summoning.
She handed out the [Summoning Card] used for practice and let the students practice summoning on their own, while she personally gave instructions.
Even Dark also gained a lot during this class.
Just one key point correction made him have a breakthrough in his tribute summoning!
He couldn't help feeling that his textbook knowledge was still lacking and that he wouldn't be able to achieve everything by just self-studying alone.
The personal guidance of the professors was more effective than him reading books by himself for one month.
......
After waiting for one week, it was finally time for Astronomy class again.
The little magisters still remembered the "predictions" from last week, especially the assignment related to the predictions.
The students from Noble House were lucky to have Dark, a mad note-taker, but the students from other houses were not so lucky, as they had all been racking their brains and thinking hard, trying to remember the predictions about them.
As for whether their final recollections of the predictions had any sentences or words missing, no one would know.
Anyway, no matter how difficult the homework was, it would change the fun nature of astronomy.
"I wonder what Professor Medea Bartholomew will teach us in the astronomy class tonight?"
"Probably the stars!"
"I prefer the moon."
"According to astronomy, the moon is one of the stars, right?"
"I don't care. The moon is the moon, and the stars are the stars!"
The little magisters were discussing such topics excitedly, and after dinner, they rushed one after another to the twelfth floor of the spiral clock tower.
Climbing the entire twelve floors of stairs was indeed a very torturous task for the little magisters.
Just like how they felt at this moment; it was mixed with the anticipation of the astronomy class, and the rejection of the astronomy homework......
By 7:30 P.M., the sky was already dark, with a faint moon huddled in the distant sky.
Although it wasn't to the point that it was pitch-black, it was still hard to see the road ahead.
If not for the solid enough guardrail of the spiral staircase, which gave little magisters a very reliable feeling, there would definitely be many students who would suddenly become afraid of heights.
The little magister either summoned their magical spirits, or used magic spell cards to light up the front, and then slowly climb up the stairs.
Dark followed the crowd unhurriedly, holding the [Phantom Magic Beast: Eevee] magic card in his hand.
Tonight, he still brought little Eevee with him!
"Vee Vee!"
......
After entering the astronomy classroom, the students took the seats they had sat before, and then continued their anticipatory discussions and speculations with their classmates nearby.
It was only when the cuckoo in the wall clock came out that some students suddenly realized - Professor Medea Bartholomew was late again!
Right above the top of the clock tower.
The witch, dressed in the way she always dressed, sat in the pumpkin carriage that blended into the night and lifted the curtains to overlook the castle.
A voice suddenly appeared from her side: "Medea, why are you always late?"
"Being late slightly can enhance the sense of expectation; it would be unattractive to be on time at all times," Medea replied slowly, her voice carrying a natural, deep, and ethereal charm.
"I see." The voice said helplessly, "It is the bad habit of the fortune teller."
Medea could not help but cover her mouth and chuckle lightly: "You are right to say so. Well, it's time for you to stay hidden, I'm going to descend now."
Then the carriage fell silent.
The pumpkin carriage, pulled by two black beasts, emerged from the night, shedding its dark cloak to reveal its original bright colors as if it were a carriage from a fairy tale.
The students in the classroom were already looking overhead with their eyes wide open.
As the ceiling became transparent, the pumpkin carriage came into view.
Medea drove the carriage past the ceiling that had been retracted and stopped at the podium. She lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage, her movement still making students' hearts flutter.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen." With an alluring smile, the witch took off her pointed hat, letting her long, silky black and purple hair fall like a waterfall.
The ends of the long hair were slightly curled, giving off a hint of playfulness.
Medea pulled her wand out of the witch's hat and pointed at the carriage.
The carriage disappeared instantly in the rising smoke.
After that, she put the hat on the table and said, "This week, I am a minute earlier than the previous week, which is an improvement."
......
As long as the standard is low enough, one can make progress at times.
Dark, who was listening to Medea's speech, couldn't help feeling speechless.
Although this professor had real talent, she didn't seem to be that reliable in character.
"So, the first question is, who am I?" Professor Medea Bartholomew moved her wand up and down slightly.
A boy in the classroom immediately raised his hand high in the air.
The boy looked at Professor Medea with a fiery gaze and said fervently, "You are The Guide of Destiny, the Star-eyed fortune-teller, the Witch of the Silver Moon, the woman of my dreams - Medea Bartholomew! "
"Very true." Professor Medea said without the slightest trace of anger, "Brad Gaunt, deduct ten points. Also, I don't think it's good for you to have any dreams recently."
She then winked at the student, causing the Knight House boy to fall into a moment of daze, and a purple crescent mark to emerge on his forehead.
The crescent had a dark pattern wrapped around it, as if to lock something in place.
Brad Gaunt subconsciously touched his forehead while showing a confused expression.
But Professor Medea just waved her wand, making him sit down suddenly.
"Flop!" The sound was as loud as if the chair was going to crack.
Professor Medea continued with an unconcerned face; "The moon is very full tonight. It's when the trajectory of fate is most obvious. Have any of you ever tried divination?"
But at that moment, the students below the podium were in shock over what had happened to Brad Gaunt, but of course, whether the shock was mixed with worry, fear, or gloating, no one would know.
Sara Swati raised her hand: "Professor, I've tried divination with stones before, but that was when I was still a child."
Medea nodded: "Stone divination is only a small trick, but it's not bad to use it to predict one's luck."
Not wanting to be outdone, Emma Mortis immediately said: "Professor, I have tried to divine with gold coins, but it is not very accurate."
Medea smiled: "The gold coin divination has been around for a long time. However, the simpler the steps of divination, the higher the requirements for the diviner. When you have mastered the knowledge I'm going to teach you, your divination results may be more accurate."
And then she turned her eyes to White Gawd who was sitting in the back row, and said: "We have always experienced a variety of interesting things in our childhood. So, the son of the Brave One, could you please tell us if you have played a similar divination game in your childhood?"
White froze for a moment, then stood up, and shook his head, "Sorry, professor. I’ve never played any divination games before."
The witch's hat twitched slightly.
Medea changed the subject and said, "That's not a problem, today our topic is observing the moon."
Then she waved her wand, opening the closed ceiling again.Please vote for this novel at
