Chapter 146: Chapter 145: Searching for Her Thousands of Times in the Crowd
So, what was the feeling at that very moment? A warm feeling in his eyes, an inexplicable excitement. Could this mean... good luck?
Just then, heavy footsteps came from the mountain, and without needing to look, Tang San knew that a Monster was approaching.
He quickly stepped aside to make way. It wasn\'t strange to encounter Monsters on this mountain path; both teachers and students of Jiali Academy would take this route. It was only near the proximity of Jiali Academy that he would take a diverging path toward the academy town.
Most Monster Clan students at Jiali Academy were nobles, and these noble students usually prided themselves on their status and did not deign to bully vassals or the like. Moreover, the very existence of the academy town was to serve Jiali Academy. Hence, when students of Jiali Academy encountered vassals from the academy town, they were generally decent, if not courteous. The good-tempered ones would even greet them proactively.
As Tang San moved to the side of the road, several Monster Clan students soon came walking down from above.
The one in the lead was tall, about two meters high, with thick golden hair cascading down his back, and eyes that shone with a golden luster. His appearance was quite similar to humans, which was peculiar. Were it not for his vertical pupils, it would be difficult to distinguish him as a Monster.
This was...
Before coming to Redemption Academy, Tang San might not have been able to recognize such a figure, but now he could immediately tell. This was a member of a High-Rank Monster Clan, with an extremely powerful bloodline.
Such members of the Monster Clan could transform into human forms. For the Monsters, transforming into human form was often more flexible than their original body, and also more convenient for everyday life. It had even become a tradition.
Humans could serve as vassals to the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan, and human women were sought after by the Monster Clan partly for this reason.
There was even a saying among the Monster Clan that humans were descendants with an incomplete Monster bloodline, inheriting the potential to take human form but not the Monster Clan\'s immense strength. The higher the Bloodline Level within the Monster Clan, the more this notion was accepted.
Undoubtedly, this young Monster was very eye-catching, and the many Monsters following him clearly looked to him as their leader.
However, at that moment, what caught Tang San\'s attention was not this evidently golden-bloodlined Monster\'s existence.
In his sight, all he saw was the person beside the golden-haired Monster.
At that moment, a phrase involuntarily surfaced in Tang San\'s mind, which goes: "I searched for her in the crowd a thousand times, and when I turned back suddenly, there she was, standing where the lanterns were dimly lit."
The stunningly beautiful girl walking beside the golden-haired Monster, dressed in the official uniform of Jiali Academy, with her long hair fluttering behind her and yet devoid of emotion, wasn\'t she the Pretty Girl he had been searching for so desperately these past days?
The instant Tang San saw the Pretty Girl, his brain seemed to explode all at once, and everything suddenly became clear.
The mother of the Pretty Girl hadn\'t deceived him; the Pretty Girl indeed had gone to school, but not to a middle or lower institute. It was at Jiali City\'s most prestigious higher institute: Jiali Academy.
In that instant, Tang San\'s thoughts had become completely clear. Pretty Girl was undoubtedly a human vassal, and with his divine consciousness, he could not have been mistaken. However, he did not know what kind of Demon God Transformation Pretty Girl possessed. At this moment, it seemed that she, a human vassal, was able to walk alongside a young Monster Clan Student with a golden bloodline, and her status seemed to be not low at all. Furthermore, the milk tea shop owned by her family was located in a place like Jiali Plaza. Therefore, Pretty Girl\'s background had become crystal clear.
Without a doubt, her father must be a very powerful member of the Monster Clan, and the Bloodline Level would definitely be high. Only that would grant her such status and enable her to come to Jiali Academy to study.
While Tang San was internally enlightened, finally understanding the true nature of the situation, suddenly, his vision went dark. In the next moment, a large hand was reaching towards his face.
"What are you looking at, huh? Is Prince Highness someone you can just stare at?" A robust figure stood in front of Tang San. A hand as large as a fan reached straight for his head.
Tang San subconsciously stepped back, jumping backward. With both hands pressing forward in the air, the wind element blew, propelling him back and dodging the other\'s grab.
"Dare to dodge?" The burly Monster Clan Student clearly had no intention of letting him go and bellowed as he stepped forward.
"Enough!" A voice, carrying a hint of authority, rang out. The burly Monster Clan Student then stopped.
This group of Jiali Academy students who had come down from the mountain all stopped in their tracks.
To others, Tang San was naturally indifferent, yet his gaze still remained on Pretty Girl.
He saw Pretty Girl frown slightly, while the blonde Monster Clan male student next to her said with a smile, "Don\'t be angry, Little Bear, let\'s go."
From start to finish, he did not even glance at Tang San, obviously sparing Tang San, the little vassal, for the sake of Pretty Girl also being human.
Pretty Girl subconsciously turned her gaze towards Tang San, and as their eyes met, Tang San\'s heart suddenly trembled. A trace of surprise appeared in the depths of Pretty Girl\'s eyes, as if she felt something familiar, but she could not immediately recognize Tang San who had changed a lot in the past two months.
With the disposition of a man who had lived three lifetimes, Tang San should have been exceedingly composed, but at this moment, he felt an especially strong impulse to rush forward, knock down everyone around Pretty Girl, and embrace her to relieve the pain of yearning.
He subconsciously clenched his fists. The burly Monster, known as Little Bear, snorted coldly, "Watch it, boy. Lower your head."
Tang San took a deep breath, forcefully restraining the impulse in his heart, and then slowly bowed his head.
After all, reason triumphed over rashness. He couldn\'t strike, not unless he invoked his divine consciousness, and besides, he was unlikely to beat these students who were clearly among the top ones at Jiali Academy. What\'s more, even if he did beat them, what would Pretty Girl think of him then?
He then suddenly realized something. The guy with a head full of yellow hair... could he possibly be a rival in love?
Pretty Girl was only around thirteen or fourteen years old. These students weren\'t much older; how could they be involved in early romance? Didn\'t Jiali Academy care?
However, Pretty Girl did not seem to falsely polite to him, nor were there any intimate actions. Just ordinary classmates, they must be just ordinary classmates.
Even though his heart was still scratching like a hundred claws, with this thought, Tang San\'s mood was much better. And what comforted him the most was the realization that Pretty Girl was close at hand, right here in Jiali Academy! This would make things much more convenient.
