My Cell Prison - Chapter 1615 - 1613: Meeting the Vice Principal Again

Chapter 1615: Chapter 1613: Meeting the Vice Principal Again

When Han Dong woke up from a deep sleep, he found himself alone in the large bed.

However.

Han Dong faintly caught a strange smell, akin to the scent that arises after stacking dead fish in a fungus-filled mud pond for several days, followed by roasting.

Smelling this right upon waking caused his stomach to churn violently.

“What is that smell?”

Han Dong quickly blocked his sense of smell, donned only a black robe, and headed to the first floor.

The body that was once weak and frail was still ’slender,’ yet now the outline of abs was faintly discernible…

“Sally, what are you doing?”

Upon reaching the first floor, Han Dong was stunned by the scene before him.

Considering that some faculty and students might not enjoy dining in public areas like cafeterias, the dormitory also came with a private kitchen.

Currently.

The kitchen was beyond recognition, filled with chunks of meat, tentacles, or fluffy threadlike masses, predominantly in black and purple hues.

Sally, wearing only a white apron, was performing what seemed like mysterious cooking at the stove.

It seemed less like ’cooking’ and more like ’alchemy.’

Sally appeared exceptionally focused, staring intently at the constantly bubbling cauldron, barely blinking for long periods,

Occasionally stirring with tentacles,

And sometimes adding a type of living ingredient that Han Dong had never seen before.

The black and purple gases wafting from the cauldron wandered through the first floor like terrifying ghosts.

She was so focused that she didn’t even notice Han Dong had come downstairs.

“Sally… are you doing alchemy?”

“Ah~ Nicholas, you’re awake?

Alchemy? What do you mean? I’m trying to make a delicacy from our Black Forest – “Special forest young eye black custard.”

Since it was always made for me before, this is my first attempt… I remember the steps very clearly, it’ll be ready any minute now.

This is really delicious, and it’s also very beneficial for your body.”

About five minutes passed.

Pop!

A large bowl of the constantly bubbling dish was placed in front of Han Dong.

Eyeballs with dental structures occasionally surfaced, exchanging affectionate glances with Han Dong,

The malignant-looking swollen tentacles (actually overcooked, causing the surface to bubble) also wriggled in the bowl,

With a spoon, one could scoop out irregular chunks of meat covered in hair and tough skin,

“Nicholas, don’t mind it, though it looks a bit odd, it tastes great…and it has excellent restorative properties for your body.

In the Black Forest, only a mature Black Goat, after giving birth, can enjoy such food.”

“A postpartum meal?”

Han Dong’s mind was severely shaken, his expression becoming exceedingly odd.

He caught a glimpse of Sally’s expectant face, making it hard to refuse… but Han Dong had no intention of eating such a thing, lest he end up with an unwanted surprise after a few bites.

A flash of inspiration flickered in his mind.

Han Dong suddenly took out a transparent container filled with white liquid.

“Sally, regarding your mom’s situation, I’ve discussed it with that senior… however, they only provided a sample and proposed a condition.

If [Mom] agrees, they will provide a sufficient amount of the liquid.

Why don’t we set off now?”

Such an important matter naturally outweighed everything in Sally’s heart, she immediately took up the transparent bottle for examination.

While Sally was inspecting it, Han Dong lifted the big bowl, pretending to take big gulps,

But in reality, he used his secret void art to transport all of the contents to a forest somewhere on the Ancient Mountain.

Sure enough, Sally, captivated by the mysterious liquid, didn’t notice Han Dong’s little trick.

“Hmm! This resembles the Eitr liquid in Infinite City!”

“Precisely, the formation of Infinite City originates from a single drop of this liquid by the senior… ’Modeling Fluid,’ this liquid secreted from his body can easily shape the world’s structure.”

“Amazing! This might actually…although we can’t visit mom right now.”

The reason Sally stayed at school,

Was firstly to wait for Han Dong,

And secondly, because for some reason, the Black Forest is currently in a sealed state,

Or rather the entire Yaddith star that houses the Black Forest is under lockdown, Sally tried to contact in vain… it seems her mom’s state isn’t too good.

“Ever since mom was critically injured, and is in a ’semi-exiled state,’ there’s a periodic need to completely seal the Black Forest for self-sustenance.

At the cost of the offspring and planetary resources, to ensure stability.”

“Approximately how long will it take?”

“One or two months; once I establish contact with the Black Forest, we’ll head over together.”

“Alright.”

“Sally, I need to go meet with the Vice Principal now… do you want to come along, or?”

“The Vice Principal… never mind, I plan to visit my sister, who is also a Black Goat and teaching here.

After returning from Fate Space, the attributes related to me have changed, and I need to consult her.

Contact me anytime once you’re done with your matter.”

“Okay.”

And so, Han Dong successfully avoided the breakfast crisis.

Half an hour later, Han Dong took the school bus to the administrative building.

He rode a private elevator to the “Tomb Area” where the Vice Principal was located, and as he stepped into the deepest secret room, the corpse oil lamps lit up in sequence,

The Vice Principal’s ’outer mimicry – a bound mummy’ sat at the desk,

Handling documents with yellow sand tentacles seeping through the bandages,

An eye formed by a gathering of sand grains watched Han Dong as he entered.

A layered, hoarse voice emanated through the gaps in the bandages:

“You seem to have gained quite a remarkable ’Mythical Puzzle,’ much stronger than the last time we met… it’s just a pity that [Black Magic] is still stuck at a standstill.”

“I don’t intend to extract Black Magic knowledge from the Fate realm,

Whether in depth, origin, or philosophy, they cannot compare to the [Black Magic] you, Vice Principal, master… I’d prefer to learn more profound magic knowledge from you to construct the corresponding Mythical Puzzle.”

This statement went straight to the Vice Principal’s heart.

The true essence lurking within the time dimension of the deceased infant even cracked a rare smile on its surface.

“Hmm! Regarding Black Magic, I will certainly guide you well… shall we start now?”

“Just a moment, I also want to inquire about the ’faculty rank evaluation’ this time.”

“This matter is indeed critical; your acclaim within the campus is already quite high, with many students even comparing you to Pope.

Th𝘪𝓈 ₡h𝗮p𝘵ɛr 𝑖ʂ pⲟ𝑠𝐭𝙚𝐝 b𝙮 𝘬ɩƚ𝙚𝕟𝙤νꬲ𝙡

Of course.

As just a [Lecturer], there are many areas you can’t be compared.

Taking advantage of the faculty rank evaluation to build your reputation on campus, while slightly suppressing Pope’s momentum, is perfect timing.

The evaluation for Associate Professor rank has been slated for the week before the summer opening.

Typically, an external teacher like you would be required to hold the Lecturer position for at least five years before one can apply to participate.

However, owing to my personal recommendation, coupled with your excellent performance last academic year, you’ve qualified to participate.”

As he spoke, yellow sand condensed on the table to form a document.

“These are the materials needed for the faculty rank evaluation.

Ultimately, it all comes down to the [performance] on the evaluation day, be thoroughly prepared for this… I simply don’t want you to be vetoed over some minor matter.”

“I will prepare for it fully.”
