Time spent together is always so fleeting.

When the group finally stepped outside to give Professor Ah Kai a moment to process everything, Fu Qian subtly glanced up at the sky again.

It was about time, yet the Red Moon still hung quietly in its place.

That wasn’t a bad thing. At the very least, it meant the situation was still relatively stable.

”Isn’t this a little too absurd? So what exactly was happening with Ah Kai earlier?”

Considering the weight of Professor Fu’s certification, Lanaya—whose expression had practically frozen in disbelief—finally seemed to force herself to accept reality.

Even so, the moment they stepped outside, she couldn’t resist asking.

What exactly was happening...

Fu Qian looked over and found four pairs of equally expectant eyes.

As participants in the rescue, they clearly harbored an irrepressible thirst for answers.”As for the exact situation, perhaps only Ah Kai can tell us.”

Fu Qian shook his head, sharing only the part he had personally handled.

”What I did just now was very simple. Since I leaned toward the assumption that he was still there but trapped in some special state, I found a way to destroy certain foundational attributes of that area.”

One could keep secrets, but one must not mislead. This was the most basic ethic of academic research.

Under the current circumstances, Fu Qian didn’t see any benefit in the group knowing the name Melia, but he also had no intention of spouting nonsense.

Ultimately, by omitting the name, he generously shared the key points of his operation.

”So that’s how it is!”

Before Lanaya could even say a word, Boyd beat her to it, growing so excited he looked ready to clap his hands in praise.

It was obvious that the group had been feeling quite apprehensive about that lingering question.

In the Transcendent Tier, there were simply far too many secrets.

No matter how effortless the process had looked, it would have been perfectly normal for this legendary Demigod to keep it a secret.

Yet, not only had he generously shared it, but it also became apparent that the process hadn’t been easy at all.

Directly destroying the foundational Transcendent attributes of an area was easy to say, but infinitely harder to do than simply making it snow over the Benevolent Curse Institute...

Probably only the man in front of them could speak of it so casually.

Even his approach to the problem was logical and clear.

”Is that so...”

Even Lanaya, the non-technical person beside them, couldn’t help but murmur to herself, raising no doubts.

...

”There were a few things I wasn’t entirely certain about yesterday, and these instructors helped me rule out several possibilities.”

Looking at Lanaya’s deeply furrowed brows, Fu Qian knew there was a question she was forcefully suppressing: Then why didn’t you just do this yesterday?

It couldn’t be that he knew in advance Ah Kai’s ordeal would be a blessing in disguise, so he deliberately let him suffer a little longer, right?

It was a very reasonable suspicion, but Lanaya had clearly learned her lesson. She knew Professor Fu had many secrets and chose not to press the issue here.

However, amidst this atmosphere, Fu Qian brought it up himself, directly explaining why he hadn’t taken this action yesterday.

Not only did he sound incredibly candid, but he also highlighted why this was a victory of teamwork.

”...Because we didn’t find any anomalies anywhere?”

Although Rob had merely acted as a coordinator, he caught on quickly and immediately grasped Fu Qian’s meaning.

”Exactly. It increased the probability that he was still in the original location.”

Fu Qian nodded earnestly, indicating that this seemingly fruitless outcome actually held dialectical value.

It was true...

Though it sounded a bit hurtful at first, the instructors weren’t rigid thinkers. They quickly understood his logic, once again marveling at his clear train of thought.

They harbored no complaints about merely serving as a process of elimination; in fact, they openly accepted the value of their contribution.

Facts speak louder than words; just having a commendable spirit was never enough.

”Speaking of which, that strange amplification effect still hasn’t been explained. It seems to be spread throughout the entire Academy...”

Moreover, Fu Qian’s words clearly evoked memories of a certain discovery—due to some unknown effect, the snow had seemed a bit heavier than it should have been.

Murmuring to himself, Boyd was obviously trying to brainstorm, though unfortunately, he was having a little trouble getting his thoughts going.

”Don’t worry about that. I roughly have an idea.”

Professor Fu’s surprising affability continued as he waved his hand, signaling that there was no need to waste mental energy on that right now.

”That’s great... It’s uncertain how long Ah Kai will take. Should we head back first? There will be plenty of time to consult him later.”

This statement made the group sigh in relief. The one who had spoken up was, surprisingly, the second male instructor from the Benevolent Curse Institute, who had remained silent all this time.

After exchanging glances, the three of them decided to leave Ah Kai with ample time to process everything, informing Professor Fu that they would return to rest first.

”I was thinking the same thing. He looks to be in fairly normal condition.”

Fu Qian glanced over his shoulder and surprisingly agreed with the idea. The very next moment, he was already taking the lead and walking ahead.

...

Departing quietly after the deed is done, hiding all fame and achievement.

It had only been a short while since he took action. Professor Fu’s excessively effortless demeanor was highly infectious, and his wisdom and composure were incredibly reassuring.

Watching him leave, the others felt a sudden wave of relaxation and hurried to follow.

A truly ”hidden” crisis had vanished without a trace.

It had even become a blessing in disguise, bolstering the Academy’s strength just a little more. It was truly difficult for those involved not to feel gratified.

...

”Are you sure there’s no problem?”

However, the sharp instincts of the Disciplinary Department’s head still stood out.

After walking a distance away from the condemned building of the Benevolent Curse Institute, Lanaya quickly caught up to walk alongside him, staring at Fu Qian with a somewhat suspicious look.

”Indeed. You came here looking for me?”

Looking completely unsurprised, Fu Qian gestured toward his own Laboratory not far away.

”I just had a bad feeling. If there continued to be no movement from your side, I would have had to consider finding more rescue methods for Ah Kai.”

Nodding, Lanaya frankly admitted to Fu Qian’s guess, the sense of responsibility in her words truly moving.

Her mention of finding ”more methods” undoubtedly meant making a big deal out of it, elevating the matter to the level of the Academy at the very least.

”I’ve never been so proud to serve in the Disciplinary Department.”

Wearing a smile, Fu Qian gave her the highest of praise.

”Also, there’s truly no need to worry. I’ll keep an eye on him.”

”That’s good...”

Being praised so firmly by a ”subordinate” made even the usually free-spirited Lanaya feel a little awkward for a moment.

After a brief hesitation, she was ultimately persuaded by Professor Fu’s stellar reputation. She didn’t follow him to his Laboratory, but simply turned and left.

...

”Professor Fu.”

However, it wasn’t long before Fu Qian, who was idling his time away in his seat, received a visitor.

Ah Kai, who had just experienced a blessing in disguise, actually hadn’t taken much time to process things before choosing to pay a visit. His expression was even rather solemn.
