Immortal in Horror Game: She is the Fortune Teller!-Chapter 268 - 263: Strange Divine Academy 8 (Bonus - )
Josh’s eyes flashed with surprise: "No way? You still haven’t found where to get the books? What little idiots are you?"
The boy and the girl exchanged glances, seeing embarrassment in each other’s eyes.
The boy, feeling humiliated in front of everyone, retorted angrily: "What’s it to you? You just got lucky, a mere E-grade waste, how dare you talk to me like that? At least I’m an A-grade!"
Josh burst out laughing, clapping his hands: "So impressive, so impressive, so impressive!"
The boy felt his self-esteem mocked.
He glared at Josh angrily: "People like you, selfishly hiding clues, will just die alone in this scenario!"
With that, he turned and ran out.
The girl, seeing this, glared at Josh with disgust and followed him out.
Josh sat back in his seat, pulled a badge out of his pocket, and tossed it in front of Erin.
Erin flared up instantly: "What the hell do you want now?"
Josh shrugged innocently: "Didn’t you say at noon you wanted to be class president? I asked Teacher Windsor for you."
"What?" Erin felt herself tongue-tied.
The other NPCs quickly turned their heads to see the object on the table, their eyes heating up.
Erin hurriedly picked up the badge, and indeed saw the words "class president" with the name Erin written underneath.
A surge of joy crossed her eyes: "Really got it!"
Other NPCs, upon hearing this, fixed their gaze on Josh, even more intently.
Josh looked at her with a grin: "Not bad, huh? Aren’t you going to thank me?"
Erin, unreserved, looked at Josh, her expression softening a bit: "Thanks, I must admit, you’re a good desk partner."
[Ding! Congratulations, you have gained 10 favorability points from Erin, current favorability -45.]
Josh: "..."
Alright then.
Every single one of them is this stubborn.
The afternoon class was actually quite simple.
Generally, Red Academy people learn combat experience, while White Academy people learn moral constraints.
But in public classes, everyone has to learn Divine Mathematics, Divine Language, and history.
Understanding the history of the Pope’s establishment of the school, Divine Mathematics, and Divine Language is essentially mathematics and literature.
The first class is Divine Mathematics, which is really just a simple math class.
But Josh couldn’t understand a word.
She grew up on Garbage Star, never went to school.
She could barely recognize words at best.
So she studied particularly hard.
The other players, seeing this elementary-level teaching, couldn’t help but roll their eyes inwardly.
But turning their heads, they saw Josh studying diligently.
Everyone was a bit puzzled, could there be some hidden clue in this course?
Gradually, all players began to take it seriously, some even started taking notes, afraid to miss anything taught by the teacher, even if it was just simple addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, they took it extra seriously.
After all.
Josh was so serious, she must have her reasons.
Their best bet was to follow her lead!

After the afternoon class, everyone got their campus cards and could go to the cafeteria for meals.
In the evening, accommodation arrangements began.
The dorm conditions were good, usually with two people per room.
But there was a problem, everyone had to share a room with their desk partner.
The players’ faces turned grim when they heard this from the dorm manager aunt.
These desk partners, few of them were good people, saying two people sharing a room was essentially putting them and a monster in a room together.
Who knows what might happen then?
The dorm manager aunt had a sharp, high cheekbone and thin, mean-looking cheeks, her eyes cloudy and bulging, staring so hard it seemed like she could pop them out and shoot them at someone’s face at any moment.
The dorm manager swept a glance over everyone: "Use the moon in the sky to decide the patrol. Every night the red moon appears, it’s the people in red uniforms who patrol the dorm all night, and vice versa, if it’s a white moon, then the people in white uniforms patrol all night. If I find any of you slacking off..."
Her tiny black pupils seemed like little green beans embedded in yellowish eye-white phlegm, particularly creepy: "I will eat your insides!"
The timid ones quickly shrank back.
Such an eerie and spooky scene, patrolling certainly wasn’t just simple patrolling, something peculiar was sure to happen.
Everyone couldn’t help but despair, you damn had to pass three school trials to send the NPCs out, and the first one hadn’t even shown up yet, and they were already worn out.
Everyone was assigned rooms and led into the dorms by their desk partners.
Josh glanced around the dorm; it was alright.
The environment was quite good, a bit like a hotel, with a double bed, table, wardrobe, and so on.
On the table were two small booklets, with white hardback covers.
Josh remembered these things, during the prayer break earlier, the teacher was holding one and leading everyone in recital.
The two beds faced the window directly, with wreaths of white and red roses hanging on it, the window half was transparent glass, and the other half was red glass.
From the red glass down was a red wall, red floor, extending to the red bedspread by Josh’s bed.
Just...
The red and white theme was quite apparent.
Erin sat on the bed, staring at her with a sinister smile: "Today is a red moon, it’s your turn, good luck, my roommate."
Josh smiled and nodded: "Thanks."
Patrolling started at 7 p.m.
The red moon hung high outside, and the clock’s needle on the wall pointed to 6:58.
Josh walked out and saw several other players in red uniforms coming out of their rooms.
Everyone gathered in the hallway.
The hallway of the girls’ dorm was extremely dim, the light overhead flickered erratically, as if it would break at any moment.
The moonlight outside slanted in, like bloodstained light, adding a particularly eerie and creepy atmosphere to the whole corridor.
Lulu was on the same floor as her, goosebumps falling all over the place in fright.
She discreetly moved closer to Josh: "Hey!"
Josh lazily hung the patrol badge around her neck: "First, my name isn’t Hey."
Lulu: "...Josh."
Only then did Josh lift her eyelids to look at her: "What?"
Lulu looked a bit embarrassed, a bit shy: "Do you still have those talismans from the last scenario? The ones that keep other monsters away when you carry them?"
Josh arched her eyebrow slightly: "I do."
Lulu: "Ahem... well, can you sell me two?"
Josh chuckled: "Sure, how many do you want?"
Lulu held up her fingers: "Three! Do you have them?"
Josh nodded: "Transfer the payment first, three talismans, six thousand points."
Lulu transferred six thousand points to her without hesitation.
Josh took out several Exorcism Talismans from her inventory for her, thankfully she had some left over from the last time she wrote or she would have been exposed.
Lulu was overjoyed, taking the three talismans: "Thanks!"
Josh smiled slightly, looking particularly kindly at her: "No need to thank me."
With the talismans in hand, Lulu, as if holding a stabilizing anchor, looked much more composed and steady.
Just as she turned to leave, Josh suddenly called out: "By the way, a reminder, these talismans only ward off ghosts. The monsters in this scenario aren’t ghosts, the item’s useless against them."
Lulu stumbled and fell heavily on her face.
