Chapter 237 You are Kavi, then who am I?
The carriage slowly came to a stop in front of the Academy of Teachings. Mu Feng gently nudged the still sleepy Laiira. The girl rubbed her eyes and huddled behind Mu Feng as they got off the carriage together.
The sunlight was a bit too bright, so the girl raised her hand to shield her forehead and carefully looked up at the wisdom center of Mount Sumeru.
White marble steps spiral up the sacred tree, with circular platforms and pavilions scattered around the trunk until they are submerged in greenery, stretching as far as the eye can see.
In the center of the main road, a heavy white and green gate follows a retro design, exuding elegance and solemnity.
This is the undisputed political and cultural center of Sumeru City, the Banana Order... uh, the Order Academy.
Even though it was break time, groups of students were still carrying books up and down the steps, and many scholars were chatting in the pavilion, making it feel anything but empty.
What a magnificent palace... I've never seen such a splendid building, either near my hometown or along the way.
Laiira looked up at the retro-designed door, her beautiful pale gold eyes practically sparkling with stars.
However, after watching for a while, the girl, who was not usually very confident, couldn't help but suddenly feel a sense of shame and fear.
I always felt that the students I saw were all very well-mannered, but she seemed a bit ignorant...
Am I really good enough for this place? What if I get expelled in a few days and have to slink back home...?
The thought of such a possibility made Laiira suddenly stop looking at the lofty palace. She timidly took a half step back and hid behind Mu Feng.
Mu Feng felt somewhat helpless, so he gently nudged the girl's shoulder and gave her an encouraging smile.
The original plan was for him to accompany Laiira to the Order Academy to complete her enrollment, and at the same time, take the opportunity to gather information within the Order Academy and find out what might have happened to the World Tree.
After all, he knew nothing about the situation in Sumeru City, and his identity was a completely blacklisted person.
Lacking a Void Terminal, even a former Great Sage like him had to construct an illusion to barely get through the city.
Therefore, without violating the city's rules and order, or attracting the attention of the disciplinary officials and the Thirty Men, the scope of his free movement was extremely limited.
However, the appearance of the water mushrooms disrupted his plans, and now he really couldn't care less about order or disorder.
Rules are meant to be broken!
"I'm sorry, Laila, I have some urgent business to attend to right now, so I might not be able to come up with you."
Mu Feng's slightly apologetic voice pulled Lai Yila out of her dazed state. The girl was still a little confused and nervous, and nodded randomly on her own.
By the time they came to their senses, Mu Feng's figure had already disappeared into the flow of people and could no longer be seen.
Mr. Kavi...is he gone? Laiira, Laiira, you're so silly...you even forgot to say thank you...
Laila hugged her book tightly in frustration, gently tapped her forehead, and felt a little down again.
However, I heard that Mr. Kavi also works at the Church of Christ, so I'll thank him next time we meet.
The priority now is to report to the Order of the Fathers. Don't let everyone down, Laila, you can do it!
The girl encouraged herself, took a deep breath, and cautiously took a step toward the Order of the Church.
As long as you can find the new student registration office, it's easy! Go for it, Laila, you can do it!
……
Half an hour later, the blue-haired girl returned to the same fork in the road for the seventh time, and was so anxious that she almost cried.
Where exactly is the new student registration office...?
The structure of the Church House is intricate and repetitive, with similar upper and lower levels. As expected, Laiira, a country girl visiting the Church House for the first time, got lost in this maze.
The shy girl pulled up her hood, afraid that others would notice her embarrassment, and just wandered around with her head down. By the time she remembered to ask for directions, it was already time to leave work.
The scholars in the academy had all left, and the students who stayed up all night to finish their papers had all gone to the Wisdom Palace. Now, even if you wanted to ask for directions, it would be difficult to find anyone.
Could it be that on my very first day in Sumeru City, I'll be locked up in the Order of the Church overnight...?
The girl was on the verge of tears, her palms were covered in cold sweat, and her mind began to feel dizzy.
Just as the second personality, Laiira, was about to come to the rescue, a conversation came from afar.
"Hey Al-Hysen, why are you leaving get off work on time again? Can't you respect your job?"
"Otherwise what? Like you, working until the wee hours every night and still owing others hundreds of thousands of Mora?
"You! Al-Hysen, where is your sense of responsibility? Where is your compassion?"
"Oh, but I'm financially independent, is that not allowed?"
Around the corner, a figure wearing a dark green coat and a figure carrying a briefcase were arguing as they walked towards the elevator. Judging from the outcome of the argument and the briefcase-carrying man's flushed face, the other one might have a slight advantage.
Great! Finally someone has arrived. Thank you, Grass God, for your blessing. I don't have to sleep in the Order House tonight!
As if grasping at a lifeline, Laiila quickly stepped forward and asked breathlessly:
"Um... seniors, hello, may I ask where the freshman registration office is?"
Kavi and Elhesen stopped their usual argument, exchanged a glance, and Elhesen spoke first:
"I'm sorry, the new student registration office is probably closed. If you need to register, please come back tomorrow."
Laila lowered her head in disappointment at the concise answer, her mood sinking once again.
This is bad... I'll have to come back to the Order of the Fathers tomorrow, but where am I going to stay tonight...?
"Hey, Elhesen, why are you so aloof? Hey junior, come on, the guy in charge of registration is my friend, I'll take you to him to register."
After holding back for so long, Kavi finally found an excuse to attack Elhesen. He glanced triumphantly at the still expressionless acting sage and revealed a victor's smile.
Al-Hysen remained unmoved; he figured he'd be better off going home and reading a couple more books than meddling in other people's business.
After all, five years as the acting sage had already given him enough headaches from the inefficient work and complicated official duties.
He carried the books and stepped into the elevator first, followed by Kavi's self-introduction and the chirping of crickets.
"By the way, junior, let me introduce myself. I'm Kavi, and that grumpy guy from earlier was Elheisen. Judging from your appearance, is this your first time at the Order Academy?"
Then, a weak voice rang out, probably the girl speaking, but the content of her words caused Elhesen's expression to change for a moment, and he stopped in his tracks.
"Hmm... That's strange... So you're also called Kavi, senior..."
