Anyway, this time the visit expenses were fully reimbursed by the Imperial royal family, so she was completely worry-free.

A noun surfaced.

Mole Club.

This was a student organization that made the mentors grit their teeth. The lead mentor didn't want to mention anything about the club voluntarily; she heard about this organization by chance while wandering around the academy.

As the saying goes, where there is light, there is darkness, and the Mole Club is just such an organization.

Or to put it more vividly, it is the Lindong Support Group.

It was precisely Lindong's appearance that brought light to the academy's students, making them realize that breaking school rules was not a big deal.

Lindong was worthy of being the academy's first-generation "Black Demon King," she redefined the spirit of rebellion.

Before her, students violating school rules were mostly to satisfy personal desires, to compete for more resources, to achieve better scores in exams. Only Lindong broke the rules purely for fun, enjoying the mentors' gnashing of teeth yet unable to catch her.

Of course, after the Mole Club embellished it, Lindong's behavior was interpreted as a return to innocence, only she returned to the initial joy of learning Magic.

——To satisfy curiosity and the spirit of exploration!

Later it became the purpose of the Mole Club; the club welcomes any member to join, as long as they have the spirit of adventure!

That day, Rowena found her mask again — a symbol of being a member of the Mole Club.

Asking about other students' specific identities in the club is taboo, considered as being a spy sent by the Disciplinary Committee.

Her observation of the Mole Club had already yielded preliminary results. Its activity room was located in the most secretive place in the academy.

To enter there, you have to go through a series of extremely complex rituals. Of course, you also have to pass the inherent spell check of the activity room — this is the gift left to them by the first-generation "Black Demon King," still useful even after Lindong left the academy for so many years, providing a safe place for their activities.

Even the academy's mentors were helpless about it.

Rowena dressed herself up carefully; she changed her hair color using an illusion spell, put on a magic robe belonging to a third-year student, took her black ebony wand, and covered half of her face with a mask.

She stood before the mirror, very satisfied with her new image.

She looked just like a seemingly quiet, but inwardly rebellious teenage girl!

Rowena memorized all the rituals.

Sprinkle a handful of Moon Grass powder by the lake, and the lake water will show you the doorway.

When the clock tower strikes the third time, you need to avoid the mentors' watchful eyes.

The stars will pave the road ahead for you. Don't be afraid of the spiders, follow their lead.

Do you smell the Snake Emperor Grass? You need to light its flower with a flame.

Following the trail of smoke, the doorway is very close to you now.

...

Seemingly simple hints led Rowena to circle the academy several times; she found it hard to imagine Lindong's state of mind when designing these lines. She had to reassess her partner.

It seemed Lindong was once a standard chuunibyou, fulfilling all Ethan's descriptions of the term.

She was already a bit out of breath.

Following the trace of smoke, climbing up the spiral staircase, waiting for her at the end of the path was a storage room.

The old door was covered with cobwebs, looking like it had been abandoned for years.

The door was locked tight.

Rowena stood in front of the door, feeling her scalp tingle.

Very well, you have arrived before the door of wisdom, now you also need to find a key.

But before that, you must answer a question.

A faint voice came from the other side of the door, sounding like Lindong had left her voice using some device capable of storing sound.

"Oh traveler from afar, please tell me your purpose."

Lindong...

Hearing the familiar voice from the other side of the door, Rowena felt a solemn respect—don't you feel ashamed? Even she had a momentary embarrassment of a student-time dark history being discovered by a colleague.

But now, she had no choice but to join in.

Rowena cleared her throat, braced herself, and spoke.

——"I come in response to the invitation, bringing tidings of the wind."

"Welcome, stranger traveler."

Sss!

Oops!

She too would be infected by Lindong!
