Chapter 94: The Characteristics of the Gun of Kindness

Under normal circumstances, correspondence students are handled by the Student Affairs Office of St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy, but even with their high efficiency, it is impossible for them to provide an immediate reply.

Thus, the group went to a restaurant for lunch first. Of course, the doctor, who had publicly claimed to have "suddenly fallen ill," could only rest in bed, with the clinic's maids helping him bring food. His appearance of being on the verge of death required no disguise at all.

The four who went out had a hearty lunch at "Good Richard's Restaurant" on Röntgen Avenue. By the time they returned to the doctor's bedroom, the academy's reply to their report had just arrived.

The academy also took this matter very seriously; otherwise, the reply to the report would likely not have arrived until the evening.

"Let me see."

Miss Louisa took the few pages of paper to look through them. After finishing, she handed them to the doctor, while she herself announced the good news to the group:

"The academy does not doubt the authenticity of our report and even praised my writing style... at least for now, there is no suspicion. The professors are very satisfied with the intelligence we submitted. They had also heard about the incident in Tobesk, but were troubled by the lack of scouts on the scene at the time and were in need of first-hand information. They also sent the information regarding the detective's gun. I didn't expect it to actually be a Document-level (Level 4) Relic, and it is quite famous in history; it is the 【Gun of Kindness】."

Miss Louisa handed the instruction manual for the 【Relic】 that had been tucked between the pages to Xia De. Xia De took a look:

【Document-level Relic - Gun of Kindness.】

【Can use physical bullets, or supplement bullets through the Ring Ringed Ringed Shushi's spirit. Does not harm the self: if the user aims at themselves and fires, they absolutely cannot harm themselves. Does not harm others: if fired at a life other than the user, unless there is a way to resist the death effect, and the user pulling the trigger is below the 9th Ring, the target will undoubtedly die.】

"So, the meaning of 'does not harm the self, does not harm others' actually means the wielder cannot harm themselves and cannot harm others? Ha, I thought it was a judgment of the good and evil alignment."

He sighed.

"Detective, you have also taken the entrance test; you should know that good and evil are extremely difficult to distinguish. Therefore, there are very few Relics of the type you mentioned."

Miss Annette, the diviner with purple eyes, reminded him.

The 【Gun of Kindness】 sounds powerful because of its "certain death" effect, but just as Priest Ao Gu Si said, except for those confused by fate or low-level Ring Mages, very few people would actively use a Relic whose characteristics they do not understand. Therefore, the 【Gun of Kindness】 is only rated as Document-level.

"Then what about the characterization of this incident?"

Priest Ao Gu Si asked with concern.

"The illegal organization 【Mercury Blood】 and the followers of the Old God 【Lord of Blood Feast】 jointly planned this shameful terrorist attack. The academy has issued a bounty to all correspondence Ring Mages in the Tobesk area; providing their intelligence to the academy will earn an academy reward."

Doctor Shi Nai De read out clearly. After eating lunch, his spirit was clearly much better.

"Then what about the reward for this incident?"

Miss Annette asked with concern. Actually, Xia De was also concerned, but he was too embarrassed to ask so directly.

"The academy needs to verify the information we provided, but there will be results within a week at most. The current idea is a reward of 20 practical credits for you and Xia De, and permission to choose a secret art or spell from the library. The academy can provide all learning materials and 10 portions of casting materials. Tsk, that's really a big deal."

Although Xia De could not see his own expression, it was likely similar to that of the brown-haired female diviner.

"8 credits for each of us three."

The doctor pointed to himself and then handed the report to Priest Ao Gu Si, who was closest to him:

"Probably this Saturday afternoon, Professor Röntgen of the Theology Academy wants to see us."

Priest Ao Gu Si shook the paper in his hand. They all saw the meeting notice on the back of the first page. The method used was the same as the private meeting notice Xia De had seen last time:

"The professor wants to ask some questions to confirm the authenticity of the report and then distribute the rewards to us. In addition, considering the special nature of this incident, the academy will help Doctor Shi Nai De heal his injuries as a reward for the group."

Priest Ao Gu Si said, and at this, everyone revealed a smile.

"With these 8 credits, it seems the possibility of me advancing to the 5th year this winter has increased again."

The blonde young lady said softly.

"Great, now I won't have to lie in bed until the end of this year; I would get moldy."

The blue-eyed doctor was also very happy; it was rare to see him reveal such an expression.

"I have long wanted to choose a new secret art in the library. My luck is really good this time; I'm going to choose the most expensive one on the list."

The brown-haired female diviner also sat quietly on the chair, her hands on her knees, revealing a smile.

"8 practical credits; it seems that this winter, I can try to raise my academic year rating by another level."

The wrinkles on the old priest's brow smoothed out because of his good mood.

Seeing that Xia De did not speak, all four looked at him:

"Say something."

Miss Louisa urged. Xia De thought about it; his entire first year only required 40 practical credits, 10 of which must come from time exploration. The remaining 30 credits were unexpectedly satisfied by 20 at once:

"Although the harvest this time is huge, I don't want to experience it again."

These words were sincere. The old priest, who was in a good mood, patted Xia De on the shoulder:

"Although what you said is correct, why are you young people so lacking in vitality? You don't look like a young man in his 20s. You should smile more often; this is my secret to longevity."

Judging by the average life expectancy of this era, Priest Ao Gu Si, who was in his fifties, was definitely long-lived.

Infected by the atmosphere, Xia De finally smiled as well.

Since coming to this world, having no relatives, no friends, no past memories, no money, and even a language barrier, now having people he could trust and his own power, he actually had nothing to complain about.

Emerging from that manuscript page, besides the academy's reply to this incident, was Xia De's learning status. Unexpectedly obtaining the blasphemous rune 【Gluttony】 by directly facing an Old God, the academy was also concerned about whether Xia De had been affected.

But the original study plan remained unchanged. "The Mad Light Chaser" and the spirit rune 【Light】 remained Xia De's most important tasks before checking the academy's "Code of Sublimation" in half a year. However, because of the special nature of the History Academy, this Saturday, not only would Professor Röntgen of the Theology Academy see the group, but Professor Hessen Garcia, the Vice Dean of the History Academy, would also appear to provide compensation and rewards for the accidental time travel incident to the 5th Era - 1068.

"Professor Garcia should be doing your course summary. That is the Vice Dean of the History Academy. I didn't expect him to come to guide you. It seems the History Academy really values your affairs."

Doctor Shi Nai De sighed.

But since the rewards for the Lake View Manor incident and the investigator incident were both coming on Saturday, Xia De looked forward to having the opportunity to talk to Professor Garcia alone. He wanted to check the "Code of Sublimation" in advance, because four spirit runes of different types were already very close for him. ===== CHAPTER 95 =====
