The Villain Only Wants To Live a Buddhist Life

"Holy Grail?"

As soon as Principal Arte's voice fell, the voices of the teachers and students in the audience suddenly rose by a decibel.

The reward of 10,000 credits was still understandable, but a chance to make a Holy Grail wish was quite extraordinary!

"Saint Marian Holy Grail" was one of the only three sacred instruments of prayer in the world, which could collect the power of prayer and satisfy the wishes of the praying person.

The "Christmas socks" that students received on Christmas Eve were disposable wishers made from the Holy Grail of Saint Marian.

Although Dark's Christmas sock only gave him one apple, some of the rest of the students seemed to have received a very nice gift.

Even a Christmas sock would have such a magical ability, let alone the Holy Grail itself.

At the end of every academic year, the academy would calculate the winner of the House Cup based on the total credits of the four houses. For the house that obtained the House Cup, each student would have a chance to make a wish.

This meant that each student had up to six chances to make a wish.

But in fact, being able to get two or three chances to make a wish in these six academic years was already extremely lucky!

So when Dark was able to get an extra wish in the first year, it would naturally make other students envious.

But if Principal Arte was not exaggerating what he did, he did qualify for this opportunity.

...

While most students were envious, White, Robert, Scott and Betty were quite depressed.

Because they were the four students who were saved by Dark...

But fortunately, the school chose to keep it a secret because of the bad influence of the vampire incident, otherwise it would be very embarrassing for them.

Especially that in the Moon Goddess event, where they were also involved. That was really not a fun thing.

But…

"What exactly is the Holy Grail?" Robert asked curiously.

White suddenly showed a shocked expression: "You don't know about the Holy Grail!?"

Robert was a little embarrassed: "I've heard of the Holy Grail. But I don't know what it looks like."

White: "...I don't know either."

Neither of them had used it before, so naturally they didn't know.

White folded his hands and propped up his chin, feeling a little envious.

I heard that the Holy Grail could make people's wishes come true. What if I wish for the resurrection of a hero...

Forget it. I don't think this kind of unrealistic wish would come true.

...

In front of the long table in Noble House.Although Dark was surprised, he accepted this information very calmly.

He also didn't know much about the Holy Grail, and only vaguely remembered that Professor Silver seemed to have said that there was an inscription on the Holy Grail, which seemed to read: "He Who Is Greedy Will Get Nothing."

It was obviously a warning, telling people that a wish that was too greedy wouldn't be realised.

But what level of desire would be considered greedy?

And what would be the upper limit of wish?

Only by knowing these could he maximize the use of the Holy Grail.

Dark pondered it for a while, thinking it would be best to ask the professors about this thing.

Maybe when the principal took him to use the Holy Grail, he could ask along the way.

But before that, he could only list some of the things he wanted.

"If possible, I really want to make a wish to directly remove the bloodline of the demon god!"

"Unfortunately, a wish of this level is definitely impossible to come true."

"On top of this premise, it may be possible to master some hard-to-master knowledge through making a wish?"

"For example, mastering the skills of using the magic brain dropper!"

"In short, this is a very good idea."

"With this as a reference, I can also make a wish to improve the realm of spiritual concentration art, perhaps obtain the ability to better control emotions and so on."

...

As soon as there was some inspiration, new ideas just kept popping up.

Dark was so lost in thought that he didn't even realize that Dianna had called him twice.

At the third time, when Dianna's lips almost touched his face, he suddenly woke up: "What?"

Dianna blinked and whispered: "Have you thought about what wish you want to make?"

Dark shook his head: "Not yet. "

Dianna: "How about a candy house?"

Dark: "..."

...

After Principal Arte announced the reward for Dark, she continued to select the most outstanding students in the last semester of the second year and publicly praised and rewarded them.

It was followed by the third, fourth, fifth and sixth year...

After all the six year took turns, she made the closing remarks and put forward some prospects and expectations for the future.

According to the normal process, the Principal Arte should announce the end of the opening ceremony after her speech, but this year's opening ceremony had another segment.

The students seemed to have guessed what she was going to say next, so they all quieted down and looked at the stage expectantly.

Principal Arte smiled slightly and said, "You must have been looking forward to it for a long time. Next, we will invite the new Professor of History of Magic, Lance Hero - Mr. Ryan Hex!"

"Wow!"

As her voice fell, the thunderous applause suddenly broke out in the great hall!

Then a one-legged old man with a prosthetic limb lifted the curtain and walked slowly from behind the stage.

Ryan Hex!

A lancer who used to be active on the frontline of the battlefield, a hero who lost a leg, a hand and an eye in the war!

When people thought of heroes, they would typically think of the Brave One, but the Brave One was just one of many heroes.

Humans could finally defeat the demons not just by the brave one alone, but by the struggle and sacrifice of thousands of heroes!

Amongst those thousands of heroes, Ryan Hex was one of them.

Ryan Hex walked out after the stage, wearing a formal suit that didn't fit him very well. He had a thick beard, his face was full of wrinkles, and there was not much hair left on the top of his head.

He wore a black eye patch on his right eye, and his left arm and right leg were both prosthetic limbs. With a cane in his hand, he looked like a frail old man, without the heroic demeanour of a "Lance Hero" at all, but instead exuded a strong doddery feeling.

The students who applauded in excitement just now because they heard the name of a hero couldn't help covering their mouths in shock.

Although scars were a warrior's medal, Ryan's injury was so serious that it even made people wonder how he survived the battlefield.

And if people thought about it more deeply, they wouldn't be able to help but feel sad.

But in the war years, Ryan was just one of the many cogs that made up for victory.

After a brief silence.

A wave of even warmer applause sounded!

"Clap clap clap clap clap!"

...

"Good evening, students, I am honored to come to Saint Marian Academy as the new Professor of History of Magic."

Ryan's voice was amplified by magic and spread throughout the entire great hall.

The applause of the students stopped.

He looked around and said in a humorous tone: "You know, before I got this job, I was so poor that I could barely afford to eat."

But the students couldn't laugh.

This elderly "Lance Hero" looked down and out from the outside, but the students didn't expect it to be true.

But was this the final fate of the heroes who made great sacrifices for the victory of the human war?

What about the kingdom's pension?

What about the postwar grants the church promised?

Or was there some other reason for this?

Was it because Lance Hero's case was an exception?

All kinds of ideas floated in the students' minds. The cold wind shattered their beautiful dreams, making space for quiet thinking.

Ryan was still giving his speech on the stage slowly, his words were full of gratitude to Principal Arte, and he repeatedly promised to prepare lessons carefully to make up for his shortcomings in teaching and educating others.

Fortunately, the professor of History of Magic didn't require much expertise.

It was just that it would probably be difficult for him to reach astronomy, which was tied to it.

Or would Principal Arte look for a new professor of astronomy?

...

"Then, Happy New Year, students!" After Ryan finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved to the students under the stage, then turned around and slowly walked off the stage.

Principal Arte returned to the stage and said: "Mr. Ryan Hex has a wealth of experience and personal insights into history, and it is precisely because I believe he can take up the role of Professor of History of Magic that I accepted his application. I hope that in his teaching career, Mr. Hex can get along well with everyone! And lastly, Happy New Year, everyone!"

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

...

Exquisite delicacies soon appeared on the tables, and the opening ceremony finally advanced to the stage of the banquet.

The students were eating delicious food while discussing the outstanding students named in each year, as well as the new Professor of History of Magic.

The gloomy feelings among students slowly faded away. It was gradually replaced by intense excitement.

Dianna was still trying to persuade Dark to make a wish for a candy house.

Rose on the other hand was thinking about Lance Hero's speech. "What was Mr. Ryan Hex's identity at the time of the war?" She asked suddenly,

Dark thought for a while, and replied, "A veteran."

Not all heroes were well known.

Regarding heros like Ryan, most people only knew that there was such a person.

But now, they had enough time to get to know the old gentleman.

Dark respectfully thought.

...

What Dark didn't expect was that before the dinner was over, the little spirit with the appearance of a griffin quietly appeared in front of him.

After telling Dianna and Rose, he left the great hall with the little magical spirit.

Principal Arte was waiting for him in the office.

Although the Principal Arte on Christmas night was only the manifestation of a little magical spirit, it was still her who he was talking to at that time.

Anyway, after that night, Dark's impression of her changed a bit, and he became more familiar with her.

"Happy New Year, Demon."

"Happy New Year, principal."

Dark sat down on the sofa at the gesture of Principal Arte.

The two glowing little magical spirits flew over holding a teapot together, trying to pour a cup of tea for Dark with difficulty.

Dark scratched his ears, then simply took over the teapot and poured the black tea himself.

With the aroma of black tea slowly wafting out, the atmosphere in the office was further relaxed.

Principal Arte relaxed her shoulders and her expression softened: "Recently, I really can't relax."

Dark asked, "Principal has been busy all holiday?"

Principal Arte nodded reluctantly: "It's only a few years after the end of the war, but some people are already eager to make a move. The conflict between humans and sub-humans is becoming more frequent. I originally wanted to talk to Didi again, but I was held up unexpectedly."

Dark said thoughtfully: "To be able to find a suitable Professor of History of Magic in this kind of situation, it must not be easy, principal."

Principal Arte raised her head and looked up: "No, it wasn't me. Claire's resignation really gave me a headache."

Dark was a little surprised: "Did Mr. Hex come to you himself?"

Principal Arte nodded: "Yes. But Mr. Hex is also indeed a reliable warrior, and he is also very knowledgeable about the history of the war. I hope the position of Professor of History of Magic can help him."

Dark: "So what Mr. Hex said was not an exaggeration, and he really couldn't afford to eat?"

Principal Arte's tone was a little regretful: "Demon, you need to know that this situation is inevitable no matter when and where. A hero who lost his arms and legs because of the war is no longer a hero when the war is over. When the glow of glory gradually fades, he is no longer a hero, but a disabled person who can't help at work in the eyes of many people."

These words normally shouldn't be said to a first-year student, but if it was Demon, it was fine.

Originally in this era, many people would become the head of their family at the age of fourteen, let alone Demon, who was much more mature.

It also wouldn't make him feel disgusted about society.

The current kingdom, whether in the legal system or the rule of law, did have various deficiencies.

And the church, which was supposed to fill the gaps on the side, was also full of loopholes from top to bottom.

When people reveled in the victory of the war, various mistakes and flaws that were originally covered up by the war were also exposed.

This was an unstable era.

The apparent peace was unlikely to withstand even a slight push.

It was unknown when it would suddenly collapse!

...

Principal Arte did not stay long on this topic.

She called Dark, mainly to talk about the vampire in the secret passage.

Dark briefly described the image of the vampire he met and then said, "I remember he seemed to call himself Vlad, but Vlad seems to be a very large vampire family in history, and their members always called themselves Vlad."

Principal Arte humorously said: "You are right, I've met Vlad I to Vlad XXIII in the past. Can you tell me about all your encounters in the secret passage? I'm also very curious about what treasure Alvette left behind."

Dark nodded slightly, and then began to explain everything he encountered on the journey of exploration after entering the secret passage.

In fact, he really liked the feeling of telling a story, especially since this story was personally experienced by him. It gave him a feeling of being a protagonist of an exciting adventure.

But his treasure-hunting trip was indeed exciting enough to be compiled into a book, and maybe it would even sell well.

At least Principal Arte listened with gusto.

"So Alvette not only set up two levels to test your strength and wisdom before the secret realm, but also set up a dragon at the end of the secret realm?"

Even Arte was surprised when Dark talked about the dragon.

After all, who would put a dragon before the treasure left for the students?

What was even more surprising was that the student actually cleared it!
