Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 1248: Chapter 1025: Illusion

Su Yuan led Ashley all the way to Room 4 of the South Garden.

”This is the room I used to live in.”

Su Yuan surveyed Room 4 in front of him, and it seemed like there were some slogans pasted on the front.

”Really?” Ashley’s eyes lit up and she was about to follow Su Yuan forward.

”Wait a minute, what are you doing!”

At this moment, three students heading to the opening ceremony loudly stopped Su Yuan and Ashley.

Su Yuan and Ashley had just reached the door of Room 4 and stopped when they heard the shout.

The three students quickly walked over from behind, scrutinizing Su Yuan and Ashley. Although young, they didn’t look like students.

”Who are you!” The freckled girl who stopped Su Yuan and Ashley seriously asked.

Su Yuan said, ”We... are guests of the academy, here for a visit.”

”Is that so...”

Hearing that they were guests, the freckled girl’s expression froze, and her tone immediately softened.

However, the freckled girl still seriously reminded them, ”You two can visit, but this Room 4 dormitory is not allowed for outsiders to casually approach.”

Ashley moved her eyes slightly, smiling as she asked, ”Why is that?”

”Because this was Senior Su Yuan’s old room!” The tall and sunny boy beside her took over the conversation. ”A few years ago, Room 4 was no longer occupied and was restored to the state it was when the senior left...”

At this point, the tall boy paused, exclaiming with excitement and pride:

”By the way, our Demon Capital’s Senior Su Yuan, you must know?

The Vermilion Bird True Monarch from the Sky Patrol Department, current top of the Burning Sun List, MVP of the Heavenly Palace battle!”

The tall boy unabashedly displayed his admiration, detailing to the two guests.

The two girls accompanying him also showed proud expressions.

Seeing this, Ashley couldn’t help but smile and glance at Su Yuan.

”Uh-huh... I know,” Su Yuan cleared his throat, slightly lowering his head.

Being praised to his face was somewhat embarrassing.

Fortunately, the freckled girl timely picked up the conversation and said, ”We can only look around the outside of the room during Academy Construction Day activities.

This room, except for the cleaning staff, no one else is allowed to enter.

Even if you two are guests invited by the academy, you must apply specifically to the school!”

Su Yuan couldn’t help but feel amused, realizing the dean had created a sort of ”alumni memorial office” for him.

”Your Senior Su Yuan is truly extraordinary!” Ashley laughed and praised.

”Absolutely!” The tall boy added, ”Let me tell you, our previous top figures of Demon Capital Academy used to stay in Room 1.

But now that’s not the case. All the most impressive people now choose Room 4, just because Senior Su Yuan once lived there.

This year, our sophomore batch happened to stay in the South Garden, and the adjacent Rooms 3 and 5 are next to Senior Su Yuan’s room.

Last year’s school opening, special enrollment and top ten students all showed up to compete at the Practical Combat Hall to decide the ownership of these two rooms!”

”I see...” Su Yuan listened with interest and couldn’t help but smile.

”We should hurry, the ceremony is about to start...” the last girl softly urged.

”Oh... okay!” The freckled girl saluted Su Yuan and Ashley, ”Then, guests, please proceed.”

The tall boy didn’t forget to remind them again, ”Remember, you’re not allowed inside the room~”

Su Yuan smiled and said, ”Rest assured, I won’t intrude on others’ rooms.”

...

Watching the three leave, Su Yuan looked at Room 4 ahead and couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile, ”Dean Cai and the others actually set this up.”

Ashley said, ”Considering your current status and influence, such actions are not over the top.

From what I know, since you first rose to the Burning Sun List a few years ago, the number of new students at Demon Capital Academy has increased yearly.

Now that you’ve reached the top, many special enrollment students have come, wanting to change their applications to Demon Capital Academy.

The Education Bureau also opened a backdoor for this, extending the deadline for finalizing applications.

Even many King Levels don’t have as much influence as you do.”

Su Yuan replied, ”After all, King Levels are too distant and unfamiliar for students, while the Burning Sun List at least is visible.

As for the Education Bureau... so far, we’ve allocated two Dragon Veins to them.”

Looking at the room ahead, a silver flash appeared on Su Yuan, and he teleported into the room with Ashley.

Su Yuan surveyed all around: ”It’s basically the same as before, the dean has really put thought into it.”

The room was as it was when he left it, with the table, chair, kettle... even the teaware that wasn’t taken were still there.

Ashley was even more curious, widening her eyes, examining every corner.

”Shall I make you some tea?” Ashley looked at the teapot, ready to step forward.

Su Yuan smiled, ”Let me do it, let’s use these old things once more.”

Su Yuan boiled a pot of water, took out the teaware and tea leaves, and started making tea.

Soon, Su Yuan brewed two cups of tea and handed one to Ashley.

”Here.”

Ashley accepted the teacup, laughed, ”Thank you, boss.”

Upon hearing this, Su Yuan looked at the black-haired Ashley in front of him and couldn’t help but pause.

Vaguely, it seemed like there was also a black-haired, red-eyed girl sitting here drinking his tea in those days.

She also smiled and told him, ”Thank you, boss.”

Not many people entered his room, aside from Luo Bingtong, there was also...

Was it only Bing Tong?

Su Yuan kept pondering, and in a daze, a vague silhouette seemed to flash by.

But when he tried to delve deeper, he couldn’t recall, causing him to furrow his brows.

”What’s wrong, boss?” Sensing Su Yuan’s change in expression, Ashley immediately asked.

Su Yuan looked at Ashley in front of him, eyes focusing:

”Ashley, I seem to have forgotten something. Can you use the Power of Oracle to help me verify?”

”Forgotten?” Ashley appeared surprised.

For someone of Su Yuan’s level, it’s rare for memories to be fuzzy, let alone forget something.

Furthermore, Su Yuan is only in his thirties or forties, how could he forget something?

Ashley’s expression turned serious, saying, ”Boss, tell me.”

Su Yuan said, ”I want to know if, besides Ruan Ruan and Bing Tong, any other girls drank tea here with me.”

Ashley blinked, ”A girl?”

Su Yuan thought for a moment, ”Should be.”

Ashley pondered briefly, then nodded, ”No problem, I’ll give it a try.”

Ashley took out the Divine Coin: ”Oracle Transmute, determine!”

Her palm opened, and the Angel Holding Flowers appeared, it was indeed the front side.

The Divine Coin emitted a dazzling golden light, while Ashley clasped her hands together and slowly closed her eyes...

After a while, Ashley reopened her eyes.

Ashley furrowed her brows, contemplating for a moment before saying to Su Yuan, ”Boss, I found nothing.”

”Is that so...”

Ashley said, ”My prediction, besides me, Ruan Ruan, and Bing Tong, in the next minute, no other girls in this room with you remember you.

The answer is ’zero,’ so there aren’t any.”

Su Yuan appeared thoughtful, thus confirmed through the clever use of prediction.

Relying on the Divine Coin, Ashley’s predictions could barely reach King Level.

Since this couldn’t be predicted, it seems it was indeed a blur of his own mind.

The hippocampal effect, throughout one’s life, one often has experiences like ”this moment happened before.”

”It should be an illusion after all, making a mountain out of a molehill.”

Su Yuan nodded and decided not to overthink, temporarily putting the matter aside.

After sitting for a while longer, Su Yuan and Ashley received a message from Teacher Xiao He.

”Then let’s go.”

Su Yuan took one last look at the room and then teleported out with Ashley...
