Chapter 30: Celia

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Good morning, junior Sonia.”

Sonia turned around and raised an eyebrow when she saw senior Celia exiting the Pavilion of Meditation.

Although she said she didn’t want to get involved with Felix, she actually had a hard time avoiding him, because he was also a student of Professor Trozan.

Only swordplay geniuses could catch the distinguished attention of the Hidden Hand Sword Sage.

After interacting with Felix for a while, Sonia naturally got to know Celia as well. In just a few interactions, Sonia knew that Celia was the same type of person as her, the kind of female hunter who would do anything to climb up the ladder.

Therefore, Celia was naturally hostile toward Sonia. After all, Felix was her prey. Sonia’s appearance now was equivalent to catching a rare animal after going to great lengths to do so, only to find a fully armed master pet trainer appear beside the trap. It would be strange if you weren’t alarmed.

Although Sonia said that she looked down on Felix, it was not impossible for her to give him a chance if he was willing to be her lackey. Therefore, she was undecided and planned to lead him on first and observe the situation.

Celia studied Sonia for a moment, then covered her nose and took half a step back. “It’s your first trip into the Illusory Realm, junior. You seem very excited.”

Are you seriously taking half a step back?

Although Sonia had not showered after her training last night, she had used a towel to wipe her body and changed her clothes. There was no way she would smell. However, she had just come out of the meditation room. She had not washed her face or put on any makeup. Compared to Celia’s fully armed “no makeup appearance”, she was naturally as scruffy as a roadside puppy.

Sonia could tell at a glance that Celia’s “no makeup” appearance would take at least an hour to put on.

“Hello, senior Celia.” Sonia nodded slightly. “Are you here at the Pavilion of Meditation to borrow the bathroom?”

Sonia was not used to being struck without retaliating. Her mockery that Celia was not here for meditating but putting on makeup was flawless. It could be considered an insult without profanity.

“Of course I’m here to meditate and enter the Illusory Realm.” Celia forced a smile and held out her hand. “This is the legacy spell spirit I found last night. What do you think, ?”

A little boy carrying a scabbard appeared in Celia’s hand. Sonia glanced at it and raised her eyebrows, recalling the information about this spell spirit.

[Scabbard]

[One-winged spell spirit]

[Limitation: Sorcerer must use swords]

[Basic Effect: When combined with other sword spell spirits, the first activation of the latter every 10 seconds will result in 150% effect.]

To swordsmanship masters, the scabbard was a very practical spell spirit. It could even extend to a swordplay branch: Assassination Swordmasters.

Through burst miracles such as “Light in Scabbard”, “Accumulation of Momentum”, and “Space-Fracturing Sword Aura”, swordmasters could release one beam of sword aura that could break through all defenses of the same level, and one beam only. Its power was unparalleled among all the sorcerers of the various schools, and anyone who was hit by it would meet certain death.

For a moment, Sonia even wanted to trade the Rapid Flow Spell Spirit with Celia.

Although the Rapid Flow Spell Spirit was more expensive than the Scabbard Spell Spirit on the trading platform, most of the time, spell spirits lacked buyers despite their value. It was very difficult to find a suitable sword spell spirit, and even if she did, she might not be able to snag it.

But when she saw Celia’s amused gaze, she understood everything—the lady was there to show off.

“Well, do you think Felix will like it?”

Sonia suddenly felt a little guilty. She must have looked as annoying as Celia when she was in the dormitory last night. She was really grateful that her dormmates did not kill her.

“I really envy your boyfriend.” Sonia forced an ugly smile. “For a swordmaster, this is a very precious spell spirit.”

“Really? Since you say so, junior, I’ll believe you.”

Celia covered her mouth and laughed, still wary.

After the swordplay competition the night before, Celia had thought that Felix would abandon her and go after Sonia, but unexpectedly, Felix did not have such thoughts. He still treated her very well and only wanted to compete with Sonia again.

Celia didn’t think Felix had intentions of two-timing. He wasn’t the type to hide his emotions. If he was interested in someone else, he’d break up with Celia directly and wouldn’t bother playing around with her at all. So Celia believed Felix really wasn’t interested in Sonia. He was just dedicated to winning.

But even so, Sonia was still Celia’s perceived rival. After all, sparks between men and women were often caused by friction. Perhaps Felix had no interest now, but what about the next second? Tomorrow? Next week?

As long as Felix was breathing, there was a possibility that he would have a change of heart.

As such, Celia could only keep an eye on her boyfriend and prevent him from having any chance to interact with Sonia in private, such as now.

Not only that, she also had to increase her bargaining power and try her best to intimidate Sonia so that she could prevent problems before they emerged.

“Junior, you have to work hard too.” Celia encouraged her. “I heard that your family background isn’t very good. Compared to us, who are locals of Galaxy, your ability is much greater than us for being able to get into Sword Flower University from the national exams. You’ll definitely be able to stay in Galaxy and bring your family to live in the big city.”

‘Here it comes. The condescending disdain and motivation from the rich to the poor…’ Sonia smiled perfunctorily. “Thank you for your concern, senior.”

“Alas, you’re a bird that could have soared higher, but unfortunately, your family dragged you down.”

Celia said it with a mix of pretense and genuineness. She really felt a bit sorry for Sonia. If Sonia had been born into a middle-class family in Galaxy, she would definitely have had better opportunities. Unfortunately, she was a village girl from a poor agricultural town on the border.

She hadn’t noticed that Sonia’s expression had changed.

“You are right, senior.”

Sonia paused for a second and gave a helpless smile. “Most of the time, a person’s starting point decides where their endpoint is. Birth is our first lottery ticket, and I only got the consolation prize.”

Celia wondered if she’d been too harsh with her words and had broken Sonia’s defenses. She thought about what she should say to comfort her junior.

“A person from a poor place like me can’t change my tackiness. I chatted with you for so long and forgot that I didn’t wash my face. It’s really rude of me to chat with you with such a sloppy face.”

“You don’t have to say that…”

Just as Celia was about to say something to comfort Sonia, she saw Sonia summon a spell spirit. A ball of water appeared in her hand and leaped right at her face.

“After washing my face, I feel much more refreshed.”

Celia stared at the spell spirit in Sonia’s hand. “This is…”

“Huh?” Sonya was slightly stunned. Her eyes started to wander, and she stammered, “This, this is the fortuitous encounter I… I obtained it from the Illusory Realm last night! Yes, this is the Rapid Flow Spell Spirit I obtained from the Fortuitous Island! Look at my luck, right?”

“Oh,” said Celia. Disbelief was written all over her face.

How could someone encounter a Fortuitous Island on their first day entering the Illusory Realm?

Furthermore, she had also obtained one of the most precious spell spirits of the School of Water Sorcery, the Rapid Flow Water Spirit!?

Do you take me for a fool?

Could it be that she had bought it? But how could a village girl have the money to buy such a precious spell spirit? Moreover, the Rapid Flow Spell Spirit was priceless. Celia had wanted to buy it for a long time, but she could not find a seller at all!

Since it was not bought, someone else must have gifted it to her.

In Sword Flower University, there were not many people who could casually take out the Rapid Flow Spell Spirit…

Celia barely managed to compose her expression and forced a smile. “This is a very important spell spirit in the School of Water Sorcery. Junior, do you have any intention of switching to the School of Water Sorcery?”

“Yeah, although I’m talented in swordplay, I’m also interested in the School of Water Sorcery…” Seeing Felix exit the Pavilion of Meditation, Sonia hurriedly waved her hand and said goodbye. “Senior, I have something else to do. See you later!”

Celia was wondering at Sonia’s haste when she turned to see Felix just leaving the building.

“Senior, you’re waiting for me?” Felix smiled. “The Illusory Realm really is an interesting place… I want to go to the library to look up more information on the Illusory Realm. Senior, would you like to come with me?”

Celia glanced in the direction Sonia had gone, then at Felix. She felt like she understood something, and it made her terribly jealous.

Many words came to the tip of her tongue, only to turn into a sweet reply.

“Sure.” She smiled and stretched out her hand.. “This is the Scabbard Spell Spirit I obtained from the Illusory Realm last night, but I don’t learn swordplay… Junior, what do you think I should do with this spell spirit?”
