Henry suddenly opened his eyes wide, and it was actually the morning of the second day.

He supported his head and sat up from the bed.

The memories were extremely clear, as if he had personally experienced them himself.

He had actually really met Cliff face to face, and even knew that Cliff was actually a young woman!

Henry felt that if he were to reveal this news, he would probably be treated as a heretic.

This secret should be temporarily hidden in his heart for now.

However, there was still one important matter.

Henry suddenly tore open his clothes, only to see that there was nothing at all on his heart.

This made him breathe a sigh of relief.

Just at this moment, his room door was pushed open.

Lilith walked in from outside with a serious expression, and behind her followed an old man carrying a medical bag.

Seeing Henry wake up, Lilith was relieved.

But seeing Henry tearing open his clothes himself, she still felt it was necessary to have the doctor check Henry’s brain.

She directly stepped forward to hold down Henry’s hands and feet, then let the doctor examine Henry’s body.

This made Henry very confused.

“Lilith, what are you doing? Could it be that the family is short of money, and you want to sell my kidney for money?”

“I came back yesterday and saw you sleeping so I didn’t pay attention, but when I called you this morning there was no response, so I went to find a doctor.”

Hearing Henry’s nonsense, Lilith finally confirmed that Henry had not been possessed or anything.

The doctor walked up to Henry and carefully examined him, then said,

“There’s nothing wrong with his body, it might be caused by being too tired from studying recently. Usually pay attention to rest more. I know Saint Nad Magic Academy has busy academics, but as a student, you should still pay attention to your body first.”

“Alright, thank you for your trouble.”

Lilith handed the consultation fee to the doctor, then politely gestured to him and saw him out.

But Henry took advantage of this opportunity to immediately open the box under his bed.

He saw that black Magic Book lying quietly inside, no different from its appearance embedded in his heart in the dream.

Henry turned the pages, but the originally blank pages seemed to have an additional line of text.

【Light and darkness are originally one; the most dazzling light will give birth to the most despairing darkness】

This kind of old clichéd dialogue that he was used to seeing in games on ordinary days made Henry somewhat concerned.

After all, his life couldn’t be skipped.

“What are you doing?”

Lilith pushed the door open and walked in, still holding breakfast in her hands.

“Nothing, just felt bored and wanted to read.”

Lilith snatched Henry’s book away, threw it back into the box, then said,

“Don’t look for now, rest the whole day today, at least give yourself some breathing time.”

Hearing Lilith’s words, Henry also knew he couldn’t argue with her.

The principal also told him to resume classes tomorrow. The school’s practical test was coming up soon, and he had high hopes for himself.

In order not to disappoint the principal, Henry decided to get a good ranking, so that asking the principal for leave in the future would be easier.

“By the way, I haven’t seen Jessica lately.”

Lilith stood beside Henry helping him spread butter on his bread.

But hearing Henry’s words, she suddenly thrust the small knife into the desktop!

Immediately, she stared coldly at Henry, her tone full of ominousness.

“Just returned and already want to mention other women? You seem to not take me seriously at all, Young Master Henry.”

Henry immediately put down the food in his hand and raised both hands in surrender.

He didn’t know if it was from eating too much French bread, but some of his actions were unconsciously made.

“How can you say that? Lilith, you are the most capable woman in the family! Having you is my good fortune! Besides, how can Jessica compare to you? You’re bigger than her! I’m talking about family status!”

Hearing this, Lilith raised her eyebrows, seemingly more satisfied with her expression.

But she suddenly looked toward the back and said,

“Your Royal Highness Princess Jessica, why have you come?”

Henry was so scared that his chair fell backward, and he fell awkwardly to the ground!

But when he looked toward the doorway, there wasn’t a single person there.

He looked at Lilith again, and Lilith’s face had no expression at all.

“Saw wrong.”

Your one sentence of ‘saw wrong’ nearly scared me to death!

Henry roared internally, but didn’t dare say it out loud.

Did you see that small knife on the table? He didn’t want to be missing pounds and ounces.

“Young Master Henry, your mouth is quite sweet when coaxing women, but it’s very easy to cause trouble.”

Lilith evaluated Henry as such.

And Henry helplessly spread his hands.

“No choice, personal charm is too powerful. Sometimes when I look in the mirror, I get mesmerized by myself.”

“Young Master Henry, has anyone ever said you have a very peculiar quality about you?”

“Oh? What quality?”

“Shameless enough.”

After saying this, Lilith turned and left.

Henry felt somewhat regretful that Lilith seemed unclear about the charm on his body.

But it didn’t matter. There would be plenty of time in the future, and she would understand eventually!

Henry stuffed the bread into his mouth, while planning to go out later to see that boss who sold Black Magic Books.

If this thing was discovered by the Church, it would be a death sentence!

When facing Christine, this Magic Book was actually able to absorb the products of Dark Magic.

Moreover, the Magic Book seemed to have its own consciousness.

He had to properly ask the boss where exactly he had dug up this good thing.

“Knock knock knock!”

The sound of knocking came from outside the door.

Henry was somewhat surprised. Someone would actually come to his door looking for him now?

Didn’t they know his reputation was bad enough?

“Dong dong dong!”

The knocking sound grew louder and louder, and Henry’s brow furrowed.

If they kept knocking, the door would probably be torn down!

Hopefully the person knocking had the same financial resources as Sherisa.

“Coming, are you rushing someone to their death?”

Henry opened the door, only to see two men in suits standing at the doorway.

The other party looked impatient, and when they saw Henry, their expressions were even worse.

“Why did it take so long to open the door? Don’t you know our time is precious?”

Henry was somewhat stunned. He didn’t seem to have called for door-to-door service, right? And Lilith was still at home, so he wouldn’t have called two men while sleeping.

“Why have even stinking beggars come to the academy outskirts? Doesn’t the academy have security to manage these potential criminals?”

Henry made a gesture to close the door, but the other party suddenly grabbed the wooden door, their expression somewhat angry.

“Don’t you know we’re looking for you?”

“Who the hell are you? Do we know each other? Or did some female family member of yours let me freeload?”

“Stinking brat, watch your mouth!”

The other party swung a fist at Henry.

But Henry easily caught the other party’s fist and wouldn’t let go.

And at this moment, Henry’s face also had no smile.

“Coming to my door to cause trouble, eh? People from the Rumelter Family have no special privileges here.”

After speaking, Henry punched the person in front of him unconscious to the ground.

Then, he looked at the other man in a suit.

He saw the other party silently swallow saliva, his tone somewhat trembling.

“You… didn’t you say you didn’t know our identity?”

“Oh? Suddenly remembered, but now I’ve forgotten again.”

Henry revealed a bright smile and kicked over!
