Team villains except me

Chapter 538 Go to sleep

The snow returned after a brief absence.

Nolvia held Yalinxiu's hand and waited for Teacher Abel to open the space channel.

The streetlights in Abbotsglen shone as brightly as day, tinged with a faint hint of green. In the swirling cold wind, slightly larger snowflakes swirled around the lights, illuminated by them like the liveliest fireflies in summer.

Nolvia gently squeezed Yalinxiu's hand, thinking about the message Julia revealed.

She had already told Teacher Abel that Teacher Obu was safe and sound.

Julia had previously initiated communication with her after messaging her.

"Professor Oub is fine. His departure was approved by the manufacturer Hector. He is your teacher, and you should know the relationship between Hector and Professor Oub. Professor Oub has the safest protection measures on him. He is safe. He came into close contact with those monsters, but he was not injured. He also brought back a lot of information about those monsters.

Mehdi has also sent an elite team to the southern continent, which will greatly reduce Professor Obu's pressure. You don't have to worry."

Even though Julia felt that the college's administrators should have good psychological qualities and the ability to control their emotions, losing three close teachers at once was too cruel.

So Julia comforted Norvia with these details about Orb.

Norvia listened, looking at the vast sky. Behind her was the teaching building with sporadic lights, and behind that was the statue of Dius.

She turned her head and looked at Dieus from a distance. She could not detect any malice. But was there any kindness? No, either.

"Dean Julia, the venue for the college league..."

"There's no possibility of further changes. I understand your concerns. I recruited a special member of your team. I know more about Valerio than he does. But the location of Norvia won't change. This isn't something the academy can decide. I tried, but there's no safer place than the northern continent right now."

The monsters in the southern continent are expanding their territory. After learning of these changes, the eastern continent no longer allows outsiders to enter. Even the beast warrior Xidai has to wait until she gets a certificate allowing her to leave before she can come to Matiya's funeral.

As for us, Norvia, you're also a member of the Special Incident Investigations Unit. Since you're participating in the Academy League, you won't be receiving any missions. However, the western continent will also be experiencing turmoil. I will eradicate those false gods, ensuring there's no chance of their resurrection.

Although there's a wave of strange beasts in the northern continent, the military has the situation under control. They have experience with incidents like this, and we are responsible for your safety."

Julia spoke rapidly.

As Norvia listened, she had already thought of the format and content of this college league.

Points race, encirclement and suppression of strange beasts.

It would not only relieve the pressure on the army, but also protect the residents of the northern continent and keep the students in a safe zone. Most of the students at the three major magic academies were nobles, and Lulitia was even more so.

"But, Dean Julia, didn't Teacher Valerio fall into a coma in the northern continent?"

Is the northern continent really safe?

Julia was silent for a moment, her voice a little low.

"That was an accident."

Nolvaya exhaled.

White mist rises and the night sky is bright.

If it weren't snowing, the weather would be considered sunny.

"Dean Julia, I have the ability to become the chairman. The information you revealed is enough for me to piece together the truth. It was not an accident.

Teacher Valerio jumped into the abyss, didn't he?

Julia said nothing. That was practically a confirmation.

Nolvia sighed softly.

Julia spoke again because of this sigh.

"How do you know? Did he leave you any clues? What exactly was he going to do, what did he discover? Do you have any idea?"

Norvia did not receive any clues about Teacher Valerio, and the message she sent to Teacher Valerio was not replied. She guessed that Teacher Valerio could no longer use the communicator at that time.

She simply knew Valerio. Even back in the cooperative competition, she'd already known the extent of Valerio's capabilities. Using her wildest imagination to divine his thoughts, Norvia easily grasped the truth.

Julia understood Valerio well. But amidst the uncertainty, people always seek a concrete path. A long, fruitless search can slowly lead to despair.

"Anyway, Nolvia, get ready. The venue for the Academy League will not change, and I hope you can lead your team to victory for Abersgar. The Academy League will last for three weeks, so please resolve any potential problems as soon as possible within this week.

I remember Chan is your team doctor, right? He will be back the day after tomorrow with Abyssal Tribe leader Kabra. Kabra is here in Abersgar for exchange and study."

"I understand, Dean Julia."

"Don't let me down, Nolvia Lely."

"why?"

Nolvia gripped the communicator tightly. Her question had no prefix or follow-up, but she knew Julia understood what she meant.

She understands her own uniqueness, she knows that she does not belong to this world, and her birth is a premeditated plan. But in Julia's eyes, what is so special about her?

"I'm a bard. I've seen more than Valerio. Norvia, letting things take their course may be a natural move, but sometimes, you have to hold back.

And you get things done really quickly.”

Julia ended the communication.

Nolvia didn't continue to worry about it. She went to Teacher Abel's office. Teacher Abel had ordered dinner in advance.

After dinner, Abel drove the space channel and brought Nolvia and Yalinxiu back home.

When Philippi was at war, Yalinshu had lived in Abel's house, and she was familiar with the layout of Abel's house.

After knowing that Obu was safe, Abel returned to her usual self. She lit incense and studied her time magic, and told Yalinxiu to get any snacks she wanted.

Late at night.

Yalinxiu had fallen asleep. The night light was soft. Abel made a pot of coffee. She was wearing a loose white nightgown, and a necklace of gems of various colors swayed around her neck.

She sat next to Nolvia and joined the group chat she initiated. She knew why Nolvia was with her tonight, and although she was not worried, she never rejected the kindness of her students.

Moreover, tonight might be a sleepless night for Norvia.

Abel thought her students looked more tired than the other. How could these little brats have gone through so much sadness and pain in less than a year? She still remembered when she first met them. They were like little kids, always making mistakes, but they were lively and carefree.

It may also be that the troubles have always been there, but she didn't understand them at that time. Now the more she understands them, the more she can empathize with them.

After the call ended, Norvia didn't rest yet. She carefully read the contents of the yellowed letter paper, word by word, sometimes pausing to think and then writing down the content that she thought needed her attention.

Abel couldn't help but speak.

"No classes tomorrow?"

Norvia was still lost in thought, and answered subconsciously.

"No, the exams are over. I just have patrol missions and some internal work for Abersgar."

"So you're not sleeping yet?"

"I'll wait a moment. Mr. Abel, do you want to talk to me?"

Nolvia noticed Abel's stay. She put down the letter that Alita sent to Valerio and asked Abel softly if he needed company.

Abel pinched his waist helplessly.

"What are you talking about? What time is it? If you have something on your mind, I can chat with you."

Nolvia thought about it, she was trying to unravel the mystery of this world, she wanted to know what her role was in this world, she was guessing what exactly she would have to deal with.

It seemed her enemy wasn't limited to the evil god. If the anomalies on every continent were interconnected, then there must be a larger entity behind the evil god, one that could control the evil god, the tide of strange beasts, and the monsters of the southern continent. She didn't know much about the eastern continent, but its isolation must be due to more than just aversion to outsiders; there must be other reasons.

Does Zhuxiang know about the abnormality in the eastern continent?

Elliott took Yalinxiu to work in the eastern continent, but Elliott did not find anything unusual. Of course, he did not go to many places. That period was special. In order to avoid being hunted down by Fiana's enemies, Elliott rarely went out.

Norvia felt she had been honest enough with her family. She had learned a great deal from the deaths of her parents and uncle. Growing up in her previous life, she had witnessed many examples of relationships growing apart due to misunderstandings.

She thought she would always have the courage to speak, but now, she found that sometimes she couldn't.

...Mr. Abel, I feel like the world is about to collapse. I feel like we're all going to die. I want to trade my death for your future. I'm terrified. I'm afraid my death won't have the power to mend the world I'd hoped for. I'm afraid you'll join me in hell. I'm afraid you'll sacrifice your lives for me, and that even if we die together, the world will still collapse.

The words were stuck in her throat, but she was like a voiceless person, bearing a huge pressure that could not be shared.

Abel looked at her pale and thin student, sat down and took the document from Nolvia's hand.

Abel opened up a new topic.

"If the Southern Continent still can't return to normal after the Academy League, where are we going to go on vacation?"

Nolvia: “…Huh?”

She hadn't thought about it yet. In many important matters of life and death, entertainment seemed to have become an unmentionable luxury.

Abel listed several famous manors in the western continent.

"...These places aren't too cold, and there are hot springs. The college league is only a month long. I know everything seems difficult right now, but Nolvia, you have to live. Using pain to confine yourself to one place and prevent yourself from being happy is too bad for yourself.

You all, when I first heard about you, were all notorious bullies, except you, of course. I thought you could take care of yourselves, but now I see that you little brats get excited when you hear about danger, step on traps when you see them, and you pick up all the responsibilities on the roadside - is that what Abersgar taught you?"

Nolvia laughed.

"Isn't it? Mr. Abel, you are also Abesger's teacher."

Abel touched the jewel necklace around his neck, speaking with confidence.

"I only teach time magic courses. I don't teach anything else. Don't change the subject, think about where to go on vacation. The weather is getting colder and colder. I wore two sweaters today, but I still felt as cold as an ice cellar. Gonia and Menillo said they were preparing a winter party and wanted to invite us to join them. Garcia nervously asked Hazi to accompany him to buy formal clothes suitable for the party.

By the way, Garcia has been asking me what to pack for vacation. He was supposed to stay on campus during the vacation, but he took leave early and arranged all his organization's arrangements. If it was suddenly canceled, he would be so upset that he would lock himself in the house and cry for a month.

It would be great if the problem in the southern continent could be solved smoothly within this month. Musa hasn't been to the southern continent, right? How is Musa doing?"

The night was dark, and once Nolvia stopped concentrating on pondering the truth of the world, she began to feel drowsy. She had really been lacking rest recently. She had been on edge at Lanier, and now she had to endure continuous setbacks. Now that she was relaxing, she felt a little overwhelmed.

"Teacher Musa...Teacher Musa is still in Lanier. Yalinxiu's classmate, Femeiou, is still here, and Teacher Musa is protecting them... Lanier still has many follow-up issues to deal with, and with Teacher Musa in charge, things might be easier to resolve. But Teacher Musa will come to attend Teacher Matija's funeral.

Teacher Mattia..."

Nolvia choked a little.

"How come I can't see you anymore?"

There's no set number of deaths you have to experience to become indifferent to loss.

Nolvia just suppressed it. Every loss made her panic grow, and her paranoia about protecting her family also increased.

She looked at Abel with red eyes.

"Teacher Abel, please don't leave us."

Abel looked around, then silently stood up and lit the scented candles. Then she returned to Nolvia, her tone soft and calm.

“This is my home, and it’s a little difficult for me to leave you now.

"Nolvaya, I have the ability to solve your problems. I'm a time magician, and I'm very talented. I may not be the most gifted of this generation, but I'm still young, and I have plenty of time. Perhaps I can travel through time and change the world. It doesn't matter if you poke holes in the sky, I'll come to save you..."

Nolvia fell asleep.

Abel blew out the scented candles she had lit and turned off the night light.

"Go to sleep, Nolvia."
