Chapter 258: Chapter 258 – Eating Pie With Opened Mouth

“This should be the place.”

In the end, Sansa decided to accompany Hyrlan to listen to the programming lecture that she would most definitely not understand. She even took the lead to guide Hyrlan toward the lecture hall.

Following the announcement paper in her hand, she led Hyrlan to a classroom with a sign that stated: ‘Leskerner Prayer Room.’

“This classroom is so remote. Hyrlan, I bet you a silver coin that there’s not going to be many students in this classroom.”

Sansa took a glance at the two sides of the hallway. She cannot see anyone walking around at all. Instead, she felt an eerie and scary feeling.

“I don’t that’ll be the case,” Hyrlan actually took out a silver coin from her pocket. She planned to gamble with her close friend.

“Let’s see then.”

Sansa placed her hand on the door handle and pushed open the classroom door. When she saw the scenery inside this Leskerner Prayer Room, she stood there completely speechless.

Hyrlan quietly placed her silver coin into Sansa’s hand.

Sansa had won their small gamble. There wasn’t a single student from the advanced magic academy in the classroom…

Instead, all the people inside the classroom were Norland’s renowned mages.

Even though those mages were only sitting there, some of them were emitting auras so powerful that the girl from the Nation of the Holy Church found it difficult to withstand.

It was like two junior high students had entered a seminar of the top scientists in the world. It was like Edison and Tesla were arguing over the problem of electricity, Newton and Galilei were having talks about their discoveries.

The correct choice before the two junior high students was not to cheerfully enter the seminar. Instead, they should immediately turn around and run away while shouting ‘Oh my god!’

Sansa was pondering whether or not to turn around and run away. She was having a session of stage fright… Mainly, it was because she saw the Nation of the Holy Church’s Archbishop Desireless to be present too. She was feeling extremely frantic. It was like she was a student who was secretly playing with her cellphone in class only to find out that the school’s director was standing behind her.

It seemed to Sansa was very self-aware of her lack of belief in her faith recently.

Hyrlan, on the other hand, was acting much more natural. She entered the classroom without hesitation and, even though she was the youngest person present, seated herself in the frontmost row.

With Hyrlan already seated, Sansa had no choice but to follow her close friend and run to the first row. Under the gazes from all those mages, she quietly seated herself next to Hyrlan.

However, Sansa’s overcautiousness did not persist for long. Soon, the Chaos Demon appeared at the front of the classroom.

“He… is the lecturer?” Sansa couldn’t help but ask that question when she saw Joshua.

Sansa believed that only Norland’s Seven Sages were capable of gathering all these renowned mages together for a lecture. But, that Chaos Demon was clearly the lecturer for the ‘programming’ system of runes.

“Umm…” Hyrlan was about to tell Sansa that Joshua was the person who taught her ‘programming’ when she discovered Joshua made a hissing motion at her.

His motion lasted less than a second. But, it was enough to make Hyrlan realize that she should quiet down and stop talking about those things.

“I believe that all of you are here today because you’ve received Gray Mage’s invitation,” Joshua loudly spoke to the mages gathered in the classroom.

When they saw that it was Joshua who was standing on the podium, they all, more or less, revealed the same sort of astonishment on their faces as Sansa.
