Chapter 151

Chapter 151 Rabbit-Eared School

After sitting for a while in the courtyard, it was noon when the classroom door finally opened, and all the students poured out, rushing towards the cafeteria a hundred meters away with excited and joyful expressions.

After all the students had left, Mira came out of the classroom. She saw the familiar silhouette of a white-hatted and white-dressed girl sitting in the courtyard and realized it must be Lolan Hill. She walked over quietly to greet her.

“Mira has finished her class,” the girl turned around, revealing the same face she had seen two days ago.

“Well, actually, it’s not exactly class. The church and school are next to each other, so I often come to help.”

Mira was curious as to why Her Highness would come today.

“You were one of the first students, right? I seem to have taught you before,” Lolan Hill recalled.

“Yes, we were very fortunate to be personally instructed by Your Highness at that time.”

In fact, the first batch of students felt the most changes. They experienced many transformations firsthand, which made them especially admire Her Highness.

“Did you teach those children what they recited just now?” Lolan Hill asked.

“It might not necessarily be me because all the teachers in the tribe teach this,” Mira nodded, her rabbit ears swaying.

“Huh?”

“Why does everyone have to learn this? It feels so embarrassing, even though it was something I once said myself.”

“Didn’t you teach us back then to remember the lessons of history, to avoid repeating past mistakes? So the differences between the past and present, and the reasons and justifications for change, what you said back then was very correct,” Mira continued.

“Oh,” Lolan Hill was speechless.

“Well, do you have many classes today?”

“Not much different from usual. It’s just cold outside, so most activities are indoors.”

Lolan Hill stood up and walked with Mira, chatting along the way.

The rabbit-eared girl was somewhat reserved a few days ago, but today she talked more when discussing her work at the church and school. Lolan Hill often nodded, showing she was listening, and asked about everyday life.

After the rabbit-eared tribe became prosperous, most of the people gradually gathered in the city, building houses with green bricks. These were much warmer and better insulated than the previous mushroom houses.

“The children nowadays are much happier than I was back then.”

Amidst the rampant demonic beasts, some humans would also come to capture us, and transportation was inconvenient, so we didn’t dare to go even slightly far.” Mira recalled.

“Childhood playmates, often we would just disappear while playing, and when we gathered again, if one or two were missing, everyone would tacitly not ask. Every time I saw familiar people reappear, my heart would be especially happy.”

“After the arrival of His Highness, things began to improve. Slowly, we could all eat our fill, and going to the mountain area to play wouldn’t get us scolded by adults anymore.”

“There’s no need to elevate me so much; I was merely a guide. The bricks and tiles of this city were also built by your own hands.” Lolan Hill shook her head and expressed her opinion.

Seeing such humility from this adult, Mira had to stop herself from speaking further and buried her admiration in her heart. Additionally, His Highness’s attire today was very beautiful, was this a new trend?

Creaking, the wooden door of the lounge was pushed open, and the two entered. The room wasn’t large, and the fireplace inside was burning with flames, occasionally emitting the sound of a few sparks bursting.

The fireplace was constructed with granite stones, with gaps filled and connected by lime, making it feel particularly rough to touch. On a small flat surface above the fireplace, there were several cups, some made of wood and others metal. One of the black wooden cups was still steaming.

Opposite the fireplace was a small table surrounded by three sofas. In winter, soft cushions were placed on the sofas, making them softer, likely filled with cotton.

Before Lolan Hill and Mira entered, a young lady was already sitting on the sofa. She had black rabbit ears, a petite figure, wearing black stockings and a dark blue top. Leaning on the sofa, her head low, her body slightly rising and falling as if she were sleeping. The firelight from the fireplace illuminated her calves and face, making her look very cute.

“It’s Aliya, looks like she didn’t sleep well last night,” Mira whispered.

“Is she a student?” Lolan Hill thought, looking at her age.

Mira smiled on her face but still carefully refrained from laughing.

“No, actually, she is a teacher at the school, one year older than me.”

“I can’t tell at all.”

Mira let Lolan Hill sit down and then went to shake her friend who was sitting on the sofa.

“Wake up, Aliya~” The body of the black rabbit-eared girl swayed, but she still seemed reluctant to wake up.

“No, Mira, don’t shake me, let me sleep a bit more,” her eyes still closed.

“Lolan Hill has arrived,” Mira whispered softly into her ear.

The black rabbit ears perked up abruptly, eyes opening to reveal red irises.

“Where where?” Then she saw Lolan Hill sitting opposite, with silver hair and dressed in a white dress.

“Oh, Your Highness, I’m sorry, I just took a little rest,” her voice grew softer as she spoke.

“It’s fine. Was it because you had too much work and slept so late?” Lolan Hill asked with concern, thinking about whether she should hire more teachers.

“No, no, everyone is working hard, and we have enough people. Mira often helps out too,” she quickly shook her head, her large eyes looking at Lolan Hill, filled with stars of admiration.

“Aliya, you didn’t eat properly at noon again,” Mira picked up the blanket on the mantelpiece and looked inside, finding a full cup of oatmeal that had started to soften.

“Well, I like eating this,” Aliya wanted to maintain her image in front of Lolan Hill.

Mira glanced at her friend, knowing that she must have stayed up reading those prince and princess romance novels last night, which was why she hadn’t slept well and skipped lunch to nap here instead.

However, with Her Highness Lolan Hill present, she didn’t want to expose her friend directly, only giving her a subtle look.

Aliya didn’t pay much attention to this. Seeing Lolan Hill sitting there, she wanted to go over and speak but hesitated, touching her fingers together before finally daring to open her mouth.

“Is Your Highness here today to check on the little ones’ studies?”

“Not exactly,” Lolan Hill denied the suggestion, thinking that saying so would put a lot of pressure on the school’s teachers.

“I actually came to deliver something, consider it a festival gift.”

After speaking, the young lady clapped her hands, and a large bag appeared on the mahogany round table. The bag moved slightly, producing faint sounds of collision. She untied the ribbon on the bag, revealing a full load of candies, each wrapped in paper with colorful ribbons tied in small bows, very beautiful.

She took out a few and handed them to the two rabbit-eared girls. Watching their happy expressions after they ate, Lolan Hill smiled contentedly.

Should she consider becoming a candy witch full-time? It seemed quite interesting.
