Really? I'm fighting the Dark Emperor.

Chapter 259 Special Chocolate for Individuals

During the official performance for the school anniversary celebration, the play, which was usually fraught with problems, was performed exceptionally smoothly.

Whether it was Sleeping Beauty Yu Feng, who often fell asleep while lying down, or Rui Bu Si, who would suddenly have a flash of inspiration and add lines to herself while acting, or the tree and pigeons who liked to chat in the back... none of them went wrong.

"You look like you've just gone through a major exam. Is acting that scary?" Piao Piao handed Agnes a magic drink, her previously happy mood now tinged with tension.

Before Eric and his friends' play was scheduled, the Cute Knights helped maintain order on stage and provided drinks to the students who had just finished their performance.

Piao Piao is just here to help.

“Agnes wouldn’t be this nervous during her big exams,” Ou Pa chimed in, who happened to be nearby.

“No,” she denied, “I’m not nervous at all.”

Her performances were alright, but as the top student in Nanmeng, she often gave speeches that she considered meaningless.

What made me nervous was being with that group of people... but it was alright, it was just a performance, nothing to be nervous about.

Taking the empty cup, Piao A Piao asked, puzzled, "But what you just did..."

“Float, float,” Ou Pa interrupted her, “Since Agnes said she’s not nervous, just assume she’s not nervous.”

"Hmm?" Meeting Ou Pa's blinking eyes, Piao Piao blinked back, "Oh~~"

"Of course I'm not nervous!" What does "when" mean?

Agnes frowned. She was only a little worried about messing up the performance, not nervous at all: "You two are really weird. Where did you get the idea that I was nervous?"

"No, no, it's just that we're so nervous about the performance that everyone looks nervous." Mentioning the performance, Ou Pa suddenly realized that he didn't seem to know who Snow White would be.

He and Eric had asked Director Pa during that time, and Director Pa gave them a very confident, “I’ve got this covered” smile and replied that there would definitely be no problem.

Suddenly, Ou Pa felt extremely uneasy.

"I have a question, Oppa, why do the students all bow to you before their performances?"

I wanted to ask this when I took the magic proficiency test.

However, we weren't particularly close back then.

"Hmm..." The sudden worry was abruptly cut off as if by something, and Ou Pa avoided Agnes's curious gaze.

"Can't you tell me?"

“I know!” Piao Piao raised her hand. “It’s because Ou Pa’s name sounds a lot like ‘all pass,’ and he has super good grades and never has to worry about failing exams. Everyone wants to be like Ou Pa and pass all his exams, so they pray to him before exams!”

When she talked about Opa, her words were several times longer than before, and she didn't speed them up.

Agnes nodded as if she understood.

"What are you talking about?" Rui Bu Si came over with a chocolate in her hand. "Bi Cheng Da Qi said this is a new chocolate from the Bi Cheng family. It's super expensive, and you can eat it for free today only."

“Bi Cheng Daqi?” The first thing that came to Agnes’s mind was Honest Gum, which had caused a disturbance on campus at the start of the school year.

The chewing gum is free too.

"The description says that if you use the roller, the chocolate can be attracted to a magnet like iron; if you eat it, it's just regular chocolate. Do you have a magnet?"

Several people shook their heads.

"Chocolate that can be attracted to iron..." What's the purpose of creating something like that? Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck her. "I know!"

"It can be used with a magnet while studying! You can hold a sticky note in the middle, and after you've finished studying what's on the note, you can reward yourself with a chocolate!"

It really sounds completely useless.

"A great idea!" Under Agnes's puzzled gaze, Ou Pa's eyes lit up. "Piao Piao, we can try this when we make potions next time."

The two, with their exceptional execution skills, said goodbye and left.

"This might help with making potions?" Agnes glanced at the chocolate packaging: "i-person special chocolate..."

She should go back to experimenting with the potions.

A certain premonition told her that there would be quite a few of these strange things coming up.

"There's a performance by Ukunana and the others later, as well as a play by President Eric and the others. Agnes, won't you watch them before you leave?"

"why?"

What is the necessity for her to stay here when other people are performing?

She doesn't understand.

She stayed.

Rui Bu Si also shoved a glow stick into her hand, one that she didn't know where she got it from.

Another group was performing on stage, but Rui Bu Si, who had dragged her to stay and watch the performance, was more interested in what interesting snacks Bi Cheng Da Qi had provided.

It's obvious that he has little interest in music.

"A four-string guitar?" While opening a new bag of chocolates, Ruipusi looked up and said, "Agnes, that guitar doesn't seem to be making any sound."

The atmosphere was reaching its climax, and Agnes had to lean in to barely hear her voice.

She looked up at the stage but couldn't make out how many strings were on the guitar—it would be abnormal to be able to see them from such a distance.

"That's the bass."

What types of guitars are there?

"……no."

The performance ended, and the two people, who knew nothing about music, didn't talk about instruments anymore.

"The performance just now was great, wasn't it?"

As the hosts, Xiao Fudie and Bi Chengdaqi sang and danced together on stage.

"right--"

The audience responded in unison.

"Would you all like to see an even better performance?"

"think--"

"If Genny were here, he would definitely be the most mischievous one." After finishing another piece of chocolate, with no intention of taking any more, Ruibosi looked at the stage.

Upon hearing this, Agnes looked around and indeed did not see Genny anywhere.

Did you lose track of time at the Elf Station?

"Now, let's give a warm welcome to the 'Cold Bear' duo—"

"Has Agnes been researching energy potions all this time?"

Why are we suddenly bringing this up?

"I just wanted to try it out since I had nothing else to do."

"Welcome, Ukunana!"

"Will it succeed?"

"what?"

"Energy potion".

Whether it will succeed or not, we'll only know after we try.

"Welcome, Ulala!"

"I've heard that the Hep family has been dedicated to developing energy potions. What are the effects of the Hep family's energy potions at this stage?"

"The energy potion's effect is to boost energy." Hep, Hep, Hep... suppressing the discomfort and unease of being offended, "Aren't we supposed to be watching a performance? Why are we talking about this?"

Hello everyone, we are 'Cold Bear'~

"Just increasing energy? Does something so simple require generations of an entire family to work on?"

"This is a matter for the Hep family, you..."

Agnes noticed her classmates looking over and realized she had been speaking too loudly.

"First, we'd like to introduce our classmate, Ukunana~ Everyone is very familiar with her, right?"

The surrounding classmates shifted their gaze away from them again: "Ukunana—"

The fluctuating emotions gradually subsided with deep breaths: "The recipe for the energy potion is recorded on the Moe Academy's Facebook page."

Despite the incomplete recipe, the energy potion made according to the instructions could not increase energy.

“If you’re curious, we can talk about it next time… What’s wrong with you?” The person who had just been chatting with her swayed unsteadily, and Agnes quickly steadied her. “I’ll take you to the infirmary.”

"No need," she said, her head throbbing with pain. She exhaled, managing to calm herself a little, and spoke as if each word was being forced out of her mouth. "I probably won't be able to watch the rest of the show. Agnes, could you tell me after the show?"

"Me?" She could talk about energy potions, but performances... Yu Feng had complained that her storytelling was boring. "I'll give it to you first..."

"I'll go by myself. Please take care of the show."

After Rebecca left, Agnes quickly lost sight of her in the crowd.

"With so many people here, it would be better to talk to anyone than to me, right?" But having been asked to do this, it wouldn't be right to just leave.

His gaze shifted to the stage, where it met Miya Xing's eyes.
