Is It Weird for a Guy to Apply to a Witch School?

“Aiyaya, ‍​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍if you do not know, just go in and ask.

Fang ‍​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍Zhi, on the other hand, unceremoniously pushed Shi Ruizhi inside.

“Hello ‍​‌​‌​​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​​‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌‌​‍this is the Bakery Club, right?”

Very quickly, a responding voice came from inside.

“Yes, and you are?”

The one who spoke was precisely Ying Shiqian.

Although the Bakery Club was currently suspended, her passion for this place still brought her here.

In her words, sleeping at the cash register was more fragrant than in her bed at home.

Of course, the people of the Bakery Club also knew this was just an excuse.

“Hello… my name is Shi Ruizhi, Millian asked me to come over here…”

Shi Ruizhi spoke.

After these days of repeated thinking, she ultimately chose the path of following that Little Han.

So with a hand that hesitated repeatedly, she still dialed Millian’s contact information.

In the end, the other party asked her to come here.

“Eh Millian? I see. Did she say what she wanted you to come over for? Or is it to have you join our Bakery Club?”

Ying Shiqian became somewhat curious, propping up her head with one hand as she asked with great interest.

After all, Ying Shiqian knew very well that the current Bakery Club had changed; they were all on a boat named “Little Han.”

During these days, Millian had interfaced with many people to join the Bakery Club.

Ying Shiqian knew very well that those people joined precisely for the sake of Little Han.

Was there something special about this person before her, why did she come alone today?

However, while Ying Shiqian was thinking about these things, she faintly felt that the name Shi Ruizhi was slightly familiar; she didn’t know if it was an illusion.

“After I contacted her, she said to meet here, as there are some matters that need to be discussed in detail face-to-face. As for joining the club… she did not speak of it in detail.”

Shi Ruizhi said.

“Oh, so not one of Millian’s people.”

Hearing the other party say this, Ying Shiqian also gained a general understanding; the other party was likely a genius Millian thought highly of, who currently had no intention of joining the Little Han Support Group.

“Then, is it convenient to ask… what business do you have with Millian?”

Just as Ying Shiqian was asking this, Tan Han walked out from the back.

Tan Han wanted to participate in this Ice Throne Secret Realm exploration, but it was filled with unnamed dangers.

Additionally, the Wand of Absolute Cold she held had a close relationship with the Shop Manager; she naturally wanted to hear some advice from the Shop Manager’s side on whether or not to take the risk.

If the Shop Manager was unwilling to take the risk, she could leave the Wand of Absolute Cold behind to serve as a safeguard; regardless, she still had a Frozen World.

Furthermore, she had her companion Xiao You, who held the Ancient Glacial Ice, which was similarly one of the fragments.

“Hmm? It is you?”

After seeing Shi Ruizhi, Tan Han froze for a moment before reacting.

During that Self-generating Magic Power promotion experiment back then, Shi Ruizhi was one of those 147 people.

Although she herself had left because she finished the experiment early and did not witness the occurrence of the experimental accident with her own eyes, she had also learned about the senior before her during that period of time.

“You… recognize me?”

Shi Ruizhi asked with some curiosity.

When she looked at Tan Han, she felt she looked somewhat familiar, as if… she had seen her while scrolling through the academy network?

“I was also one of the participants of the Self-generating Magic Power experiment, or rather, a participant slightly earlier than that batch of experiments. I recognize all the participants of that experiment.”

After all, the memory ability of her Seed of Great Knowledge was no joke.

“Of course, it is mainly because you were the only one who had an accident. I naturally paid attention to you.”

“So that was it… you are Tan Han?”

Being told this, Shi Ruizhi also suddenly remembered the information on the academy network.

Was the person before her eyes not that Tan Han who dominated the unrestricted competition matches in the Myriad Connection Arena?

According to the profile, she was only a second-year student…

Speaking of which, she had also searched it up; that Teaching Assistant Little Han was also the same age, because she was in the same batch as the girl before her eyes.

She still remembered having seen a joke.

One year ago, everyone was sighing because Yang Yuehan was in the same batch as Tan Han.

One year later, everyone was sighing because Tan Han was in the same batch as Yang Yuehan.

“What! You are that Shi Ruizhi!”

At this moment, Ying Shiqian’s somewhat long reflex arc finally allowed her to perceive the key to the problem.

“Um… this… should not be anything worth being surprised about…”

Shi Ruizhi spoke somewhat weakly.

“Ah… it’s nothing. I was just sighing with sentiment. After all, you are the person who had an accident in Little Han’s experiment. I naturally took an extra look. It’s nothing, nothing… don’t look at me, I am just a cashier.”

“Come in and have a seat. The Bakery Club has suspended business during this period due to some reasons; it is actually a club adjustment. I wonder what business you have for coming this time?”

Tan Han also took the opportunity to invite these two inside.

“Actually… I wanted to find that Teaching Assistant Little Han. She said that once I’ve thought it through, I could contact Millian. It was Millian who asked me to come over here.”

“You want to find Little Han? She is personally still busy right now; you likely cannot see her. However, her clone perhaps can.”

“Actually, a clone is fine too.”

At the mention of a clone, Shi Ruizhi thought of that Yue who accompanied her during those days.

Even if she racked her brain, she never thought that Yue was actually a clone of that Teaching Assistant!

Just as Shi Ruizhi and Tan Han’s group were exchanging a few words of conversation, Millian pushed open the door of the Bakery Club.

At this moment, another figure followed by her side—it was precisely the clone “Yue.”

“Have you already arrived? It seems we are late this time.”

After Millian entered, she was somewhat surprised to see that Shi Ruizhi was already here chatting with Tan Han and the others.

Do not blame her for arriving so late; she was usually very busy.

Even if the club problems that needed to be handled were said to be shared by that Shop Manager, she was still doing other things.

For example, interfacing with the true Support Group members, those who generated power for faith; or for another example, meddling in some industries within the academy.

Right now she still held a massive amount of resources.

If these resources were not used, were they to just wait and let them grow mold?

Within the academy, sentiment was not discussed here.

As long as there were resources, then there were people willing to earn.

Regardless of anything, since she had taken over the Bakery Club, Millian was unwilling to watch this club sit and eat away its resources until they were gone.

Furthermore, an industry like the Bakery Club’s pastries could similarly earn money; it was just that the original Bakery Club didn’t quite like expansion.

But if Millian were truly allowed to develop the Bakery Club… she actually couldn’t do anything big.

The name of the Bakery Club was more suitable to become a non-profit label for this club once it grew large, rather than its main business.

After all, from a Transcendent perspective, ordinary money does not count as money.

Transcendent materials like Red Copper, Mithril, and Arcanite Gold are what count as true “money.”

No matter how well those breads are made, can they bring in a single Red Copper?

It was unlikely.

Along with the arrival of my clone, Shi Ruizhi also suddenly stood up.

Actually, even until now, Shi Ruizhi did not know what kind of mindset she should use to face the person before her.

Guilt?

A normal heart?

Or something else?

In the final analysis, Shi Ruizhi was still trapped within that event that had no answer and no evidence.

Having received favor, having received tolerance… actually, it was precisely because of these that her final choice was ultimately influenced.

Therefore, she chose to follow me, Teaching Assistant Little Han.

“What? Have you still not let it go?”

At this moment, treating the Bakery Club like my own home, I pulled out a chair and sat down, subsequently looking toward Shi Ruizhi.

The moment these words of mine came out, quite a few people instantly smelled the scent of gossip.

Actually, that experimental accident incident that caused a stir in the academy was still very concerning.

That girl named Ji An murdered her roommate, causing the other party to be deeply trapped in an experimental accident, and blamed the cause of the matter on that experiment.

This was the shallowest level of academy reporting, the level where an average person just watches the fun.

Those who paid close attention to this matter would link it to the subsequent incident where the academy purged that batch of students and Teaching Assistants, knowing this was an accident targeted at the Self-generating Magic Power experiment.

“That…”

Shi Ruizhi didn’t know what to say for a moment.

Let it go?

How was that possible?

Not let it go?

She couldn’t say it out loud either.

“Actually, Ruizhi has been harping on this matter during these past few days…”

Fang Zhi, as Shi Ruizhi’s roommate and good bestie, had no choice but to speak up and extricate her.

“Is that so? Truly sorry. It looks like the conversation that time did not eliminate your concerns, but instead increased your psychological pressure.”

“Speaking of which, exactly what happened? Is there some hidden story to this matter?”

Ying Shiqian listened from the side with some confusion, because she truly could not understand this encrypted conversation.

“Do you mind if I say it out loud?”

I looked at Shi Ruizhi and asked.

“……Speak…”

Shi Ruizhi hesitated for a moment, but still spoke.

After all, she had already made her choice.

If this matter was still hidden, she wouldn’t be at peace.

If the others could not accept it… then this matter would ultimately remain a time bomb.

“Actually, the whole thing is also very simple. Shi Ruizhi was injured in this accident and lost most of her memory—specifically, an irreparable memory loss that went deep into her life essence.”

I didn’t waste many words and went straight to the point.

“Amnesia? I seem to have seen reports from the Press Club, but I didn’t expect it to be this serious.”

Ying Shiqian spoke.

“Trauma deep into the life essence? This serious?”

Tan Han, on the other hand, focused more on the life essence.

After all, she had been constantly fighting high-year seniors and had naturally experienced the undying nature of a high-year senior’s high-tier life level.

At the very beginning, she had also been curious what kind of injury had caused a high-year senior to be hospitalized; now that it was put this way, things were connected.

“Yes. In short, she has amnesia; Shi Ruizhi remembers nothing. But the key to the problem is also here. That roommate of hers who framed her said before being caught that she was also a co-conspirator of this experimental accident. But Shi Ruizhi does not remember, and any evidence that could prove this has also been erased. Shi Ruizhi is currently trapped within this predicament; even though I have forgiven her, she cannot persuade herself.”

“There was actually such a hidden story?”

When I finished speaking, quite a few people revealed expressions of surprise.

“Can truly not a single piece of evidence be found?”

Tan Han was somewhat puzzled.

She knew of the information retrieval ability of a Seed of Great Knowledge; then for the Great Tree of Knowledge Little Han possessed, the ability should be even more terrifying.

How could not a single piece of information be found?

“Mhm, cannot be found.”

I looked at Tan Han and said.

After all, the one who did this might be a Transcendent Witch, which made it somewhat inconvenient to disclose.

Tan Han, however, had another view.

She felt Little Han might know the true situation, but she wanted to earn the favor of this senior before her.

After all, a girl who could be bound by her own morality—to be honest… was rare.

At least her three-views were very upright.

Shifting responsibility was the most instinctive thought of an ordinary person, and would also be the practice implemented afterward.

“Regardless, I actually do not care. Even if it weren’t Shi Ruizhi, it would be someone else. Those fellows have wanted to target me for more than a day or two, so that is why I do not care. I originally thought saying this could dispel your concerns; I didn’t expect you to think so much instead.”

I spoke while looking at Shi Ruizhi, who instinctively looked away after meeting my gaze.

“Speaking of which, you should be able to understand as well, right? Whether it is the rational presumption of innocence or the emotional maintenance of tolerance when facing uncertain matters, I have no need to pursue such a responsibility.”

I looked toward the crowd and spoke my viewpoint.

Actually, no matter what was said, many decisions made precede the reasons.

Many reasons are merely to make this choice appear easier to accept for oneself or for others.

“Indeed. If even Little Han forgives her, then we actually have no need to criticize anything. Furthermore, what if this was just your roommate being unable to bear seeing you doing well at the end, right?”

“True, no need to care. Little Han already said it’s fine.”

“Then… What if I truly did do it? Then in that case…… can my guilt also be wiped clean like this?”

As soon as Shi Ruizhi said this, everyone suddenly fell into silence, because they had essentially witnessed what it meant to not even let oneself off.

“Guilt… is that word not used a bit too heavily?”

At this moment, I gave a light laugh and broke the current silence; I was the only one qualified to judge this matter.

“In your eyes, are there only two results—you are either a good person or a bad person? But is that truly the case? As long as one is human, one has done bad things and also done good things. Regardless of whether you did this or not, it is already past. You have no need to smear yourself. My not caring about your right or wrong is also not whitewashing.”

“Only in a child’s world is it all black and white. We are all adults; do not let a child’s problems trouble the adult you. Unless… you are to admit that you have not grown up yet.”

I spoke a long paragraph, and the effect… was actually something I was quite satisfied with.

Shi Ruizhi’s soul essence truly made her lose many things, so in a certain sense, she was indeed reborn right now.

That was why she appeared somewhat stubborn and childish.

But…… she possessed the right to bid farewell to the past.

If asked who gave this right… it was naturally given by me.

Whoever doesn’t let her say goodbye to the past, I’ll ensure she has no future.
