440 A Different Kind of Breathtaking (1/2)

The school was always brimming with the energy of youth. Not every student was like Mo Fan, who had already encountered all kinds of terrifying demon beasts when he was still in his high school days.

As the students had never experienced the fear of encountering demon beasts, or been corrupted by society, the Magic Institute retained its sacredness, where everything was full of hope and anticipation.

Sitting on a bench covered in fallen dry leaves, Liu Ru could not help but feel jealous of the students in the Magic Institute.

She was only an ordinary girl, who did not take the noble path of becoming a Magician. When she saw the students who had extraordinary power, it reminded her of the overwhelming strength of the vampire she hated. Liu Ru was regretting that she did not insist on studying at a Magic School, as she would not be as helpless as she currently was.

Mo Fan's apartment was located in the Pearl Institute. It was Liu Ru's first time at a Magic Institute. She gloomily found herself in a world where she did not belong. She was feeling a yearning and regretful, but mostly had an overwhelming sense of loneliness from not knowing how to continue on with her life.

The air cooled as the day grew darker. Occasionally, a few guys passing by would approach her after seeing her fairly unique temperament. Normally, Liu Ru would be happy to make friends with some Magicians, who were seen as the pillars of the country, yet she was currently lacking the mood. She could not gather her focus, as every time she closed her eyes, she would see a man in a coat hiding in the darkness, and when her eyes sprang open, it felt like the figure was right in front of her.

”Have you finished your class?” Finally, Liu Ru saw a familiar face walking toward her, bringing a smile to her miserable face.

”I was looking for information. The library here has lots of books about demon beasts, yet I couldn't find any information about the vampires,” Mo Fan said helplessly.

”I'll lend you a hand. It's a lot of work if you're doing it alone,” said Liu Ru, who wanted to do something.

”Alright, I'll bring you to the library tomorrow,” Mo Fan nodded.

On the second day, Mo Fan brought Liu Ru to the library early in the morning. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, Ai Tutu had followed them to the library, too.

Ai Tutu was extremely furious. They had made it clear that no one was allowed to bring someone to the apartment without asking for everyone's permission, yet Mo Fan had brought a girl back, who even spent the night!

One could imagine the terrified look on Ai Tutu's face when she walked out from her room in her pajamas and saw a girl with a worn-out look walking out from Mo Fan's room. She was very angry, and immediately told Mu Nujiao about it, to expose Mo Fan's true character.

Mu Nujiao was relatively calm, but she still could not understand why Mo Fan would bring a girl to the apartment if he were desperately in need of a place.

Mo Fan roughly explained the situation, yet the two girls were not fully convinced by it, especially Ai Tutu, who insisted on following them to the library.

”Excuse me, mistress, I'm at work, so please don't disturb me,” Mo Fan said sternly to Ai Tutu.

The works that Hunters did most of the time were filled with danger. If necessary, Mo Fan would prefer not to involve anyone he knew in his work. Besides, Liu Ru was being targeted by a vampire hiding in the dark. Mo Fan had already arranged another apartment for Liu Ru, and had moved into it temporarily.

”Who's disturbing you? Aren't you looking for information about vampires? I'll lend a hand, too. Maybe I can help you to catch the vampire too,” retorted Ai Tutu.

Ai Tutu wanted to know if Mo Fan actually shared a secret relationship with Liu Ru. If that was the case, she would convince her Sister Mu to forget about this ungrateful man.
