Sonia removed her makeup and opened “Basic Principles of Water Sorcery” in a leisurely manner.

The most appropriate time for reading a book was when removing her makeup. After all, removing makeup was very troublesome. First, she had to carefully remove it from every strand of her eyelashes with a cotton swab. Then, she had to use eye-washing liquid to wash her eyes. Today, her arm was covered with sunblock, so it couldn’t be cleaned off with shower gel. Therefore, she also bought a big container of cheap makeup remover specially to remove the sunblock.

After showering, she still had to undergo basic skincare. The spray and essence serum were essential, and even her eyelashes had to be coated with essence. Otherwise, it would be very easy to clip them off. She didn’t have that much money to go for another mascara surgery at “Perfect Starlight”.

All these miscellaneous things took almost an hour altogether. If Sonia didn’t make time to study, how could she possibly have won a scholarship last semester?

Also, she was prepared to summon her first water spell spirit before next year. It would be best if she could fully spread her Silver Wing before graduation and become a One-winged Sorcerer.

Although Sword Flower University was not a top-notch sorcerer university in Galaxy, Sword Flower University had the best training for swordmasters, water sorcerers, and wind sorcerers. As long as sorcerers in these three departments graduated normally, their future prospects would be unlimited.

Among them, water sorcerers often became medical sorcerers because they had many relevant healing spells, so Sonia also chose to major in this school.

Having seen the prosperous world of Galaxy, Sonia knew that alone, she would not be able to establish herself in this world without decades, so finding a good man as a shortcut to enter high society was naturally her first choice.

Otherwise, why would she spend so much time and energy on maintaining her beauty? Was it to benefit some poor person?

According to Sonia’s investigation, more than 50% of the wives of nobles were water sorcerers.

If the nobles themselves were sorcerers, this ratio would exceed 70%!

Being a water sorcerer was undoubtedly a huge bonus when a noble chose his wife!

Compared to water sorcerers, wind sorcerers would typically become weather sorcerers. They would have to work outdoors often, and the conditions were harsh. Not to mention swordmasters—great physical strength was a disadvantage for females…

Sonia’s life plan was clear—

Become a water sorcerer, find a way to participate in the campus activities of the Truth Sorcerer University of Galaxy, and catch herself a young noble.

Unlike the University of Sword and Flower, the University of Truth was the most prestigious university in Galaxy and even the Astra Nation. The people there were either rich or nobility. That was where Sonia’s future boyfriend would be. She considered all the boys from the University of Sword and Flower below her standards.

Becoming a water sorcerer, getting to know the noble students of the University of Truth, and then entering the high society as the wife of a noble, trying to find a way to make up for her family’s wealth through the man’s social resources. Then, even if they divorced, she would still be able to establish herself in Galaxy, and take her mother here to live the life of nobility…

“No, you need to practice swordplay.”

Hearing this familiar yet foreign murky voice, Sonia’s right hand subconsciously tried to grab her weapon.

If it weren’t for the fact that her sitting posture restricted her movements, she would even have activated her footwork to dodge.

But in the next second, she came back to her senses and looked in horror at the strange person who appeared out of thin air. He was wearing a dark black coat, and his face was dim and blurry.

“If I were you, I’d check the reactions of other people first.”

The Observer leaned against the wardrobe, raised a finger, and made a shushing gesture. “If you want to talk to me, just say it in your heart.”

Sonia looked at Louis and Adele. Adele was tapping in the air, clearly engrossed in the show on the hologram. Louis had just come out of the bathroom, and when she passed by the Observer, she didn’t even look at him, as if he didn’t exist to her at all.

Sonia looked down at the ground and immediately understood—the Observer had no shadow.

Holding back the urge to speak, Sonia asked inwardly,

[Who are you?]

“My name is Terminus Observer. You can call me Observer. If you are getting so forgetful at such a young age, I can only recommend you to abstain from sex…”

[You know I’m not asking about that.]

“But that’s all I can answer.”

The Observer said, “Also, you know what? I used to hate it when people deliberately mystify things, especially when they withhold important secrets and act like it’s not time for you to know. It makes people want to beat the sh*t out of them.”

Sonia said nothing. She just looked at the Observer.

The Observer nodded. “Yes, just like you said, I’ve become one of those people who deliberately mystify things now, because—I find it very interesting. Especially when I see you clearly hopping mad and helpless, I really feel that this trip has not been in vain.”

“But isn’t that the norm? People tend to grow into what they dislike most. Or rather, unlikable people often tend to live longer.”

Sonia suddenly realized something and her hair stood on end.

[You can hear my thoughts!]

“If I can’t hear your thoughts, then what’s the difference with performing a pantomime?”

[But you can’t—you don’t respect—I’ve even lost my freedom of thought!?]

“Don’t worry, Sword Maiden. I’m not your enemy,” the Observer said. “I’m not even a complete person right now. If you really insist, I can avoid appearing in front of you.”

[What exactly are you, then?]

“I’m just a distant thought.” The Observer shook his head. “That’s far enough. Let’s get down to business. Coming to think of it, you won’t care that I can hear your thoughts soon enough.”

[What business?] Sonia recalled the cruelty in the dream.

“First.” A blue potion appeared in the Observer’s hand. “You must drink it.”

[No, I won’t!] Sonia replied instantly.

However, something that frightened Sonia happened—she saw the potion in the glass bottle disappear at a speed visible to the naked eye, and at the same time, she felt a liquid slide down her throat!

“And then.” The Observer handed her a wooden sword. “You want to practice swordplay.”

[No, I don’t want to!]

The Observer was right. Now Sonia no longer cared that he could hear her thoughts.

Compared to being able to control her own words and actions, listening to her inner voice was a trivial matter!

Even if Sonia tried her best, she could only watch as she took the wooden sword and—

Whoosh!

Following the ear-piercing sound of the wooden chair scraping across the ground, Louis and Adele turned to look, just in time to see Sonia leaving the dormitory with her wooden sword. The sound of the door closing was very loud. Bang!

“What’s wrong with her?”

Louis muttered to herself in a low voice, but she immediately realized that she was being very cowardly. She sneered loudly and said, “She hasn’t practiced swordplay for a year. Why is she suddenly going to train tonight? Is she trying to hook up with a senior from the Swordsmanship Department?”

Adele blinked, confused. “I don’t remember her ever buying a wooden sword. Ingrit doesn’t have a wooden sword like that either.. Where did she get it from…?”
