Ferri

"Vitality has been drained? It requires the thunder of nature and the earth flame for it to hatch?

Looking at the information on the system interface, Hughes frowned.

No wonder this egg was placed at the top.

The examiner must have noticed that the egg's vitality had already been lost, so he did not carry out any other tests and placed it here.

After all, it was basically impossible for a demon beast egg with its life force drained to hatch successfully.

"But fortunately, I have the system and know how to successfully hatch this demon beast egg again."

Looking at the demon beast egg at the top of the shelf, Hughes suppressed the excitement in his heart and said to the staff, "I'll take the broken demon beast egg at the top of the shelf."

"Huh?" The staff did not expect Hughes to choose a broken demon beast egg. After being stunned for a moment, he asked again, "Are you sure you want to use this free opportunity to get the broken demon beast egg?"

"Yes."

Hughes nodded without hesitation.

A demon beast egg was at most tens of thousands of dollars.

But if the purple thunder fire lion's demon beast egg could be hatched, then it was not something that could be measured with money.

"Hughes, the demon beast eggs on this shelf are basically all pet eggs. You must consider it carefully."

Seeing that Hughes wanted to choose a broken demon beast egg, Otis could not help but remind him.

Although he had just gotten to know Hughes, he could not just watch his roommate get tricked.

As Otis said that, Hughes was surprised that Otis knew about the issues.

But after the system found out that this egg was a purple thunder fire lion that would become a ruler-level monster, how could he give up?

Therefore, he calmly smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Otis didn't say anything else when he saw this. After all, this was someone else's choice. He could not step over the line and forcefully interfere.

"Help me take it down, I'll take it away now."

Hughes looked at the staff as he said that.

Just as the staff was about to take the Demon Beast Egg, a clear voice sounded.

"Wait, I'll pay for this demon beast egg for him. Let him keep this free opportunity!"

Hughes turned his head and saw a familiar baseball cap.

However, she was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and a pair of jean shorts.

Her long and fair thighs were exposed in the air, making her look particularly beautiful.

Seeing this person's arrival, the surrounding people began to discuss.

"It's the first-year water elemental Alice!"

"Tsk tsk, as expected of a water elemental goddess. She's really beautiful."

"Oh right, what did she say just now?"

"I think she said that she's going to pay for that kid."

"Who's that Kid?"

"I don't know, I've never seen him before."

...

Listening to the discussions of the people around him, Hughes said helplessly, "Senior, what are you doing?"

"What do you mean what are you doing!? Isn't it good to save a free chance?" Alice pouted and said proudly.

"Woah, have you ever seen Alice like this?"

"No... No, this kind of reaction is too cute!"

"No, my goddess, how can you be like this?"

...

Listening to the discussions of the people around him, looking at Alice's tsundere appearance, Hughes could not help but burst into laughter.

At this moment, a low voice came from the side.

"I heard that there's a gigolo here who lives solely on women?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a man walked out from the crowd.

He was about the same size as Otis, holding a tall, red staff in his hand.

Seeing this man walk out, Alice's expression changed. Her originally proud expression instantly turned moody, as if she put up a mask.

Then, Alice said in a cold voice, "Ferri, you don't need to care about my matters."

"What, gigolo, do you know how to hide behind a woman?" Ferri saw the hint of annoyance on Alice's face and became even angrier, then he said, "Kid, I advise you to come over and apologize to me. Otherwise, you won't even know how you'll suffer later."

Hughes looked at the tall man in front of him. The smile on his face slowly turned into a sneer because of Alice. Then he said, "Is that so? I'd like to see who will suffer."

When the surrounding students saw the confrontation between the two, they all secretly clicked their tongues. A junior who had not yet entered the academy was fighting with a senior who had already entered the academy for a year. They had thought that only new students would be able to see such a situation... but they did not expect to see it here today.

Ferri's eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a slight chill in his eyes. In his year's batch of Lach Academy of Magic, no one dared to contradict him in front of him. Although he had heard that Hughes was an SS-grade rare light magic mage before... he was still the number one in his batch.

"You're really arrogant..."

Ferri's mouth curled into a mocking arc. He narrowed his eyes and stared at Hughes, he said, "I'm really curious. Other than relying on your good luck to obtain light magic, which is a supporting talent that can not be broken, what kind of confidence do you have to dare oppose me?"

When Otis heard Ferri's sarcastic words, anger immediately rose in his eyes. However, he also understood that Ferri was not someone an intermediate mage like him could deal with. He could only grit his teeth in anger.

"Whether I have the confidence or not, why don't you try it out yourself?" However, unlike Otis' anger, Hughes only smiled even more coldly.

Ferri's pupils constricted. Clearly, he had not expected Hughes to speak to him like that, his voice immediately became cold. "Originally, if you were sensible, you could have just apologized to me and let it go. But you insisted on being so insensible. Looks like I will definitely have to make you suffer today."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ferri took a step forward. Mana rose from the staff in his hand. The intensity of that mana was much stronger than Otis'.

Otis was shocked when he saw Ferri's imposing manner. Ferri actually attacked him on the campus, was he not afraid of being punished by the academy?

Otis and Alice looked at Hughes worriedly. They saw that there was not the slightest ounce of fear on the tender face that was similar to their age. Those pitch-black eyes reflected a faint black light, making it impossible to see through.

Seeing that Hughes was so calm, Alice and the others calmed down as well.

Suddenly, Otis' Heart jolted. Even though Ferri was considered the top of his class, he knew that Hughes was also a scary opponent. It might not be as easy as he thought to make use of Hughes to gain a sense of presence.
