The Last Gentleman

The embrace lasted a full five minutes,

and everyone inside the Swan School had turned into silent spectators, quietly watching everything unfold, not daring to speak or make any superfluous movements.

Engaging in an act of direct exhibition of killing intent towards the Principal was something they had never encountered before; if they were to commit any disruptive offensive act at such a time, they might be remembered by the Principal and be settled with afterward.

Zede, who had climbed halfway, was also stopped in place like a statue,

stretching his Sensing ability to its fullest, feeling the situation in front of him.

If the Principal showed any killing intent, or intended to cause irreversible harm to Yi Chen, he would, at all costs, forcibly interfere… even if it meant becoming antagonistic towards the academy and facing direct trial by the organization.

However, Zede did not have to wait for that situation to arise.

Principal Daislin had no inclination whatsoever to harm the young man in her arms,

and furthermore, while gently stroking Yi Chen’s head, she was also transferring a kind of Galaxy Energy to him for “Thought Calming”.

Even Qian Bosen, an old professor specializing in Intelligence, was extremely shocked by the scene; they had never seen anything like it.

“Being appointed by the organization to the position of Principal requires meeting several stringent conditions.”

Those chosen as Principal, except for major reforms of the academy, generally do not intervene in routine matters.

Their more important role is to “hold the fort”.

To ensure the Safety, Stability, and confidentiality of the academy, to guarantee the normal operation of the academy, and to further select and output ‘Stable top-tier talents’ for the organization.

As the most Mysterious Principal among the past generations, Daislin seldom appears in public; she even only arrived temporarily at the end of the last meeting about the school’s educational system reform, just to hear the results.

This time,

for such a common and Ordinary annual test, she actually appeared and led the test content herself.

Professor Qian Bosen, who specializes in Intelligence, suddenly realized something,

“Daislin belongs to the Sensing Gentleman category, and her Star Formation ability surpasses all others in Zion, allowing her to some extent to foresee future trends.

This proactive intervention and leadership in the annual test are no coincidence, but something she had observed in advance.

Is it because of William?”

…

Yi Chen, the last tester, did not resist such an Embrace State.

Part of the reason was the soothing effect on his Thought process brought about by the special touch; he had not relaxed like this for a long time.

Another part was due to the self-examination,

After appraising dozens of paintings, understanding and analyzing the meaning within, then extracting the core of the paintings to Combine them into a “door”, Yi Chen had gained a great increase in his Basic Attributes – “Sensing”.

Then touching the Deep Layer of his Consciousness, fully sinking into the ‘past reality’ created by his Thoughts, he had even killed a guard from the Orphanage who was a fusion of reality and the Void.

All these experiences were stimulating his spirit, stimulating his Consciousness.

In the fifth minute of the embrace,

ancient texts slowly began emerging in his field of vision.

“Sensing Psyche” has increased from [3] to [4]

*Special Note: Your cognition of Ancient Living Text has been enhanced, and you can now understand more obscure and complicated ancient character structures. In addition, your understanding of Pathological substances has improved, and corresponding enhancements to related weapons’ effects will be achieved.

“Sensing…”

At this moment,

Yi Chen could feel more clearly and in greater detail the sensation of the firearm in his left hand, even sensing the flow of iron within and the gathering of bullets.

He was even confident in manipulating the structure of the bullets inside, to shoot with greater power, more targeted shooting, and possibly add certain extra Attributes.

He could also feel his Thoughts ‘Diverging,’ enabling him to receive the surrounding factors more clearly, deeply, and with understanding.

Similarly,

this allowed Yi Chen to feel more directly the current “Embrace State” he was in, realizing that he had been in the arms of the Principal for nearly ten minutes, and that he was in a rather embarrassing position.

Just as he pondered how to appropriately and politely extricate himself from the current embrace,

“Such a good child~ To think you could touch such a deep area with the guidance of my thoughts, even improving [Sensing] during the test… It seems you have a talent in this area as well,”

came a gentle voice from the mask above, but Principal Daislin’s hands showed no intention of letting go.

“Thank you, Principal Desline,” Yi Chen managed to squeeze out words of gratitude while pressed against her.

“Holding you is quite comfortable~ The skin on your body has no flaws and is of good concentration; you must have met the ‘First Gentleman’ at least once, right?”

“Yes,”

“Professor Qian Bosen must have already told you about [Skin], so I won’t go into detail. The improvement in [Sensing] will help you understand the essence of Skin.”

At this moment, the embracing hands finally began to slowly loosen.

Just as Yi Chen intended to step back and bow in thanks,

Principal Daislin’s attire swiftly rose up in strands of white silk, restricting him within a certain range, preventing him from stepping back, the distance between them not exceeding one meter.

With the complete raise of the silk from the attire, the Principal’s uniquely graceful figure, long white legs, and nearly one-hundred-ninety-centimeter height were fully exposed in Yi Chen’s eyes.

Once the silk area had fully formed, the outside world was completely shut out.

Creating a temporary space for a dialogue between the two.

“Such a realistic gallery challenge, requiring interpretation and memory of each painting, and accompanied by a continuous influence of darkness and eeriness.

The tests of other gentlemen are not even a third as difficult as yours; the fact that you found the [Door] within three minutes is enough to prove your talent in Sensing.”

“Sensing is your area of expertise, isn’t it, Principal?” blurted Yi Chen.

“Correct… Sensing is the quickest shortcut to understanding the world. Would you like to achieve mastery in Sensing?”

“Yes!”

Upon hearing Yi Chen’s reply, a strange smile seemed to crack beneath the Crying Mask,

“Don’t get too excited. I certainly don’t have time to mentor you… I have looked at your files, quite interesting.

Half a year after enrolling, you spent all your time with that monster, Zede, gaining unique physical traits.

In one year, you only carried out two tasks;

one involving direct contact with Open Source patients by touching the dark side of the Clinic, the other a five-star difficulty assassination mission.

For a newcomer with potential like you, ‘Multi-extreme Breakthroughs’ are indeed worth considering. If you also want to add [Sensing], you can proceed to the [Power Station] after the test is over.”

“Huh? Power Station.”

In the knowledge Yi Chen had read, the Power Station was an area of extreme confidentiality and security, ensuring the electricity supply of Zion and also serving as a scientific research base.

Any gentleman without a valid reason to approach the Power Station would receive a direct warning from the organization.

At this time,

the Principal took out a business card with a Star River background from within her attire and handed it to Yi Chen.

“With my card, you can directly gain access to the Power Station, and then you look for a newly-employed electrician – Ludwig Reagan.”

“Who is he?”

“My most promising student once. Unfortunately, he has some character issues, refused my goodwill, and left school early to go to the Power Station to loaf around… Go and talk to him, it will be helpful for your Sensing.

He’s about your age, having enrolled just nine months before you.”

“Thank you, Principal.”

“If your Sensing reaches [6] within a year, you can apply to visit my office.”

“Alright.”

The conversation ended there,

and the silk floating around dispersed, with the Principal also flapping her wings behind her, ascending into the air.

Her body was outlined with layers of Galaxy Energy, piercing directly through the solid roof, vanishing into the Breathtaking Night Sky above the campus.

At this,

the eyes of all teachers and students within the Swan School were on Yi Chen, as murmurs began to rise.
