Chapter 13: Dark Demon Stepped on the Turning Point
The Friday class was very relaxing, with only one duel class in the morning.
At 12 o'clock noon, the passage to Traveller Street would be opened, and would not be closed until 12 o'clock in the evening on Sunday.
During that time, every student in the academy could freely enter and exit Traveller Street.
Not only the freshmen who had just gotten permission, but also the senior students who had been holding back in the castle for a whole week, were all swarming out.
Although Saint Marian provided all kinds of daily necessities for free, all other items needed to be purchased on Traveller Street.
Students were free to use their credits to buy anything they wanted, whether it was all kinds of weird candy toys, beautiful clothes, and jewelry, or even cute dolls.
Of course, most of the goods were all kinds of potions and other materials needed to make magic cards.
Academy professors would give senior students some homework that took a week or even a month to complete.
The materials required for the homework had to be purchased at the shops on Traveller Street.
In addition, some students would make their own potions, items, and semi-finished magic cards, which were sold on Traveller Street.
The senior students who were allowed to enter the dungeon could hunt magic beasts, obtain materials, and sell them to the merchants on Traveller Street.
Merchants would also pay in credits.
In Traveller Street, the actual value of a point of credit was 16 sacred coins, and this exchange rate would be adjusted as the market changed.
Freshmen in the first month of enrollment did not know they only needed to listen carefully to each class, then they would be able to obtain the credits worth 160 sacred coins!
Based on twelve classes a week, students could get 7680 sacred coins a month!
Today, the merchants on Traveller Street would give those students who were not listening carefully a serious blow!
...
"Dark, do you want to go together?"
"No, I have something to do today."
"Then I'll go with Roro first. I heard that there is an interesting candy store on Traveller Street. I've long wanted to check it out!"
Dianna held Rose's arms and rushed out.
Dark shook his head. He had a detailed plan about what he needed to do today.
Before heading to Traveller Street, he took out a notebook from his bag and took a close look at the facts about various items excerpted in it.
[Vampire Fang: The teeth of a vampire, once it pierces into the blood vessels, it can make people feel calm. The side effect is [Lust] after losing blood. ]
[Etiquette of Humility: The top hat of a demon noble, no matter how rude a person is, once they wear it, they will become humble and polite, but they will become furious when the hat is taken off! ]
[The Tear of the Ocean: the tear of a mermaid, it can be used to make potions that can reduce weight, but it is actually achieved by causing anorexia. ]
[Margaret's red dancing shoes: the dancing shoes of the mysterious witch Margaret, can help a person to make the most perfect dance in the world after wearing them, at the price of never being able to take them off. ]
[Katerina's poisonous apple: the apple planted by Queen Katerina in the back garden of the palace, it can absorb envy and jealousy and turn them into a poison that makes people fall asleep forever. Only the kiss of true love can remove the effect of the potion. ]
[Glandet's gold coin: the gold coin inherited from Glandet's legacy, the person who holds it will become extremely stingy and greedy; they will regard money as life, and their family as dung. ]
[Voodoo doll: a cursed doll made with a strong envious heart as its roots, a needle in the doll will make people feel extreme pain. ]
[Pot of abstinence: it can absorb desires, and let people enter a state of being unable to feel happiness or sadness at the cost of losing the ability to even think of those desires. ]
[The Ring of Starry Sky: the ring of the Great Starry Sky Magister, it can see a corner of the starry sky in the universe, making people feel their own insignificance, and it can even cause people collapse with fear. ]
[Nightmare worm: it can penetrate into the dream, absorb the desires of human beings, the price is that the brain will also have holes. ][The magic brain dropper: it absorbs a small amount of brain matter, including emotions, desires, knowledge, etc.. It is often used in the production of advanced magic cards. Frequent use will cause indirect memory loss. ]
[Holy cross: it can purify the mind and make the wearer's mind pure. The side effect is that the brain is corroded. ]
[Requiem bell: shake the bell to calm people, even if they die, they will not waver. ]
[Moon God incense: lighting an incense in the study can make the mind purer, throw away distracting thoughts, and improve the efficiency of reading. ]
[Wrath of God: the magic wand of the old age, can transform anger into a flame of magic energy. If the anger does not stop, the magic flame will not go out! ]

The entire notebook was a record of related items Dark had extracted from various books this month.
These things might be magic items left over from the previous generation, or they might have been refined into magic item cards.
No matter which kind it was, it had more than necessary effects on the resistance of seven deadly sins.
However, as the saying goes, you have to pay if you want to get something. Many things had side effects that were hard to ignore, and the price to pay was also very serious.
At present, there were very few that seemed to have no side effects.
Among them, what Dark wanted the most, was the alchemy tool [The magic brain dropper] and the top luxury goods [Moon God incense]. They had acceptable side effects, and were also most likely to be found in Traveller Street.
And, Dark believed that [Moon God incense] was likely to make one become thirsty for knowledge, which was obviously very dangerous, and it required more experimentation.
So, his purpose of going to Traveller Street today was [The magic brain dropper]!
[The magic brain dropper] As an alchemy tool for extracting substances from the brain, it was suitable for the precision production of high-level magic cards.
Dark read many books and even asked Professor Cazer, a professor of magical guidance. He was very sure it should be able to extract emotions and desires effectively as it required extremely high technology and it couldn't be used frequently.If he couldn't buy it from Traveller Street, he would have to find a way to get it from Professor Cazer's experiment.
Even though it wasn't suitable to use repeatedly, if he could pay attention to temperance, it could still be used for emergencies.
The immediate problem was to absorb some [Pride]!
...
After the freshmen entrenched at the gate of the castle finally disappeared, Dark took a step forward and walked towards the gate of the castle calmly and gracefully.
——The aristocratic education engraved in his bones made his movements sophisticated even when his heart was anxious.
The passage to Traveller Street was set in the lake pavilion outside the castle.
While crossing the long garden-style bridge to the beautiful lake pavilion, Dark glanced at the environment habitually.
In addition to a circle of seats on the edge of the pavilion, this fairly spacious lake pavilion also had a total of eight sets of supporting stone tables and chairs.
A line of words was carved on the directly opposite stone pillar, "If we try to find, there will always be room for improvement, waiting for us somewhere."
Dark blinked and saw someone sitting on the stone chair, twisting his butt, and then the person disappeared suddenly.
There were also people who twisted it for a long time, but the one who should be in the same place was still in the same place!
"It seems that the entrance of the passage is relocated. There are eight stone tables and eight stone chairs for each table. Only when the correct eight stone chairs are selected can you enter Traveller Street."
He glanced at Robert and White, who were blushing, and sat down on a stone chair on another stone table where no one had sat before.
He was very patient and waited until everyone at the other tables had failed before he twisted his butt slightly and disappeared in place.
