Luke was sitting on a bench by the roadside of Ceremony Avenue in the central urban area.
A street lamp beside him illuminated the area very brightly.
Behind the bench was a small park. There were some traces of camping on the mowed lawn. Across the road was an opera house. There were posters outside the opera house and singing came from inside.
The faint singing made the city even quieter.
After a while, a group of boys and girls wearing Oulu Academy uniforms walked over. They stopped near the bench and waited for the school bus to arrive.
At the same time, they also saw the elf sitting on the bench.
Elves were not uncommon in Wild Waves City where the routes were connected to the world. There were many elven professors and scholars at Oulu Academy.
However, they had never seen an elf with such an otherworldly appearance.
A boy who looked to be about sixteen or seventeen years old walked over.
He had a school bag slung across his shoulder. He asked Luke in a tone that he thought was very handsome, "Hello, elf... My name is Heidisiko. Are you also waiting for the bus to Oulu Academy?"
"Yes," Luke replied. "I'm going to Oulu Academy. Are you all students of the academy?"
The strange elf's response made the boy even more confident. He turned around and looked at his companions proudly before saying to Luke, "Yes, we are all students of the Oulu Academy. The weekend passed by so quickly. Thinking about how I was about to face Professor Finnick, I had a headache. The magic spell analysis he taught was really too difficult.
"Miss Elf, you're not wearing the uniform of Oulu Academy. Are you a teacher of the academy?"
As Heidisiko chatted with the elf, the other students also gathered around.
Some people were guessing about the elf's teaching position in the academy.
"Miss Elf, I can see that there are two scimitars behind your waist. I heard that the Wind Dancer of the Elves is a warrior who uses two blades. Are you a combat technique instructor in the academy?"
"No, these two scimitars are so exquisite. They must be ornaments. And how could such a beautiful elf lady be a rough warrior? You're probably an elf druid who masters the power of nature."
"Elf druids all have animal tattoos on their faces. I think you're a mage. Only noble mages can match your beautiful appearance."
...
A group of Oulu Academy students surrounded Luke and started talking. There was even a little girl who reached out to touch her pointy ears.
Luke jumped up and landed lightly outside the crowd.
"Touching an elf's ear without permission is very rude. I'm sure your etiquette teacher taught you this.
"As for my profession...
"I am an elven warrior, an elven druid, an elven mage, and an elven archer. At Oulu Academy... I am a new professor of magic."
Luke made up an identity for himself.
In order to prove the credibility of her identity, she opened her right hand and an ice lotus flower bloomed in her palm.
The casual release of ice magic caused the students to exclaim in surprise.
Heidisiko, who felt that his presence had been reduced, shouted to the students, "Students, pay attention to your etiquette! This is our magic professor... Professor, may we know your name?"
"My name is Clear Sky, like the clear sky."
The students bowed to Luke and shouted together, "Hello, Professor Clear Sky!"
"Professor Clear Sky, which subject do you teach? Can we attend your class?" Heidisiko asked.
"I teach..." Luke thought for a moment and replied. "I have to listen to the academy's arrangements. After my schedule is confirmed, you are welcome to attend my class."
"That's great!"
Even if he didn't want to listen, he would still be willing to attend a class taught by a beautiful elf.
At this moment, a bus stopped by the roadside. The car door opened, and a thin man wearing an old-fashioned magic robe with a very serious expression stepped out.
"Students of Oulu Magic Academy, wear your school badge. It is your honor."
The students quickly checked the school badge on their clothes. Those who were not wearing it immediately found it and put it on.
Then, they lined up and got on the bus one by one.
When it was Luke's turn, the man asked, "Beautiful Miss Elf, this is the bus to Oulu Academy. Students and faculty members do not need to pay the fare. If you are a visitor, you need to pay 10 imperial marks."
Heidisiko, who had already gotten onto the bus, shouted, "Mr. Maher, this is our magic professor, Miss Clear Sky."
The other students also said that this was their magic professor.
Luke took out ten imperial marks and handed them to Maher. "I'm here to go through the official employment procedures."
With so many students saying that the elf was a magic professor at the academy, Maher did not suspect anything. He did not accept Luke's money.
"I'm sorry, Miss Clear Sky. Please get on the bus. Welcome to Oulu Academy. If you are single, I believe that all the single male teachers in the academy will welcome you even more."
Maher, who seemed to be serious, also showed a rare smile to the beautiful Clear Sky.
Beautiful things always made people let down their guard.
Moreover, Oulu Academy was not a forbidden area. Opening and tolerance had always been the mission of Oulu Academy.
Ten marks was a symbolic charge.
"Thank you, Wizard Maher." Luke got into the bus.
Heidisiko took the initiative to invite Luke to sit beside him, but Luke chose to sit with a female student who looked quite pleasing to the eye.
Maher closed the door and knocked on a bell beside the door.
The school bus started without a driver and disappeared on the road after driving for a while.
At this moment, a group of imperial secret agents ran over, panting. They could only watch as the bus from Oulu Academy left the main space.
"Damn it!" Bonard, who didn't stop the car, cursed angrily. Then he asked his subordinates, "Did you see Clear Sky get on the bus?"
"Captain, we saw her. She got on the bus with the students from Oulu Academy.
"This is troublesome!"
"It's not just troublesome! A powerful assassin who had killed so many people in the Cape District and was carrying the Heart of Red Dragon Nilcro would definitely cause a disaster if she went to Oulu Academy!
"Quickly inform the inspector and alert the city government office.
"Find the Oulu Academy's liaison office and ask them to open a path to the academy for us.
"Quick, quick, quick!"
"Yes, Captain!"
The secret agent who received the order quickly left.
The remaining secret agents looked in the direction where the bus disappeared and asked Bonard worriedly, "Captain, what should we do against that elf?"
Bonard placed his hand on the handle of his sword.
"Many of the students in Oulu Academy come from noble families... This time, we have to do our best.
"When you encounter Clear Sky, don't give her any time to cast the large-scale ice magic.
"Only by rushing and killing would we have a chance to leave Oulu Academy alive."
"Yes, Captain!"
