Illimitable Until Death

Chapter 1115: IUD-Chapter 1110 A Small Wish

The so-called After-Festival refers to the conclusion of the School Festival.

On the night when the School Festival ends, people light bonfires in open spaces, then gather around them and dance traditional folk dances together, using it as the final curtain call to announce the end of the School Festival.

Although the Daihasei Festival is not a School Festival, it is no less festive than one.

As a large-scale event, the Daihasei Festival is essentially an athletic meet, but to many people, treating it like a celebration is only natural.

Because of this, the Daihasei Festival also sometimes holds an After-Festival depending on the circumstances.

It’s just that this is a spontaneous activity rather than something officially organized by Academy City.

At this moment, in every corner of Academy City, bonfires were being lit one after another, causing firelight to flicker everywhere.

District 7 likewise had quite a few bonfires burning.

The one Fang Li and Sylvia came to was the nearest bonfire to their location.

“It’s already started.”

Looking at the scene before her, Sylvia’s voice unconsciously carried a trace of excitement.

On the open ground ahead of Sylvia, a tall bonfire was blazing brightly.

Around it, pairs of young men and women dressed in sportswear chatted and laughed with each other. Slightly embarrassed, they stepped forward and began dancing folk dances around the bonfire.

The folk dance wasn’t difficult. Even children could learn it after watching it once.

As a world-famous diva, although singing was Sylvia’s specialty, it wasn’t as if she was bad at dancing either.

“Mhm, mhm.”

Watching the gradually unfolding folk dance, Sylvia kept nodding.

“The movements really are simple. It’s easy to learn, and it’s pretty much the same as what I saw online.”

Hearing this, Fang Li, who was standing beside Sylvia, looked a little surprised.

“What?” Fang Li asked. “Don’t tell me you’ve never danced a folk dance before?”

“Of course not.” Sylvia shook her head and said somewhat boredly, “Although the six great academies of War-Academy City have a unified School Festival, for Genestellar who treat duels as part of everyday life, no one would bother dancing something this simple and impractical, right?”

In other words, War-Academy City had a School Festival, but no After-Festival.

“Now that you mention it, that really is true.” Fang Li said with sudden realization, “During the School Festival, I really didn’t see any school holding an After-Festival.”

The school cultures of the Six Great Academies were different to begin with.

For example, students at Saint Galahadworth Academy were mostly children of prestigious families, with a strong knightly atmosphere of integrity. Even if they celebrated the end of the School Festival, they would only hold a dance party and dance ballroom dances rather than folk dances.

Arlequint Academy had an extremely technical culture, so naturally it wouldn’t bother with this sort of thing.

As for Rewolf Black Institute, there was no need to even mention it, it was full of delinquents, and no one there would be in the mood for folk dancing.

Queenvail Girls’ Academy was an all-girls school focused on entertainment careers, with countless dances far more visually appealing than folk dancing.

As for Jie Long Seventh Institute, it was an academy steeped in traditional Chinese style, so there was no tradition of dancing folk dances there either.

As a result, only the relatively free Seidoukan Academy remained, but because it was filled with students from all around the world, this tradition was never established there either.

And so, the traditional After-Festival naturally never came to be.

“To be honest, I’ve always wanted to experience an ordinary After-Festival.”

Sylvia looked just like a child, her exquisitely beautiful face wearing an innocent smile that made her seem pure and carefree.

“Now, that wish has finally come true.”

As Sylvia said this, her purple eyes gazed intently at the scene before her. Reflected by the firelight, they seemed as though they were burning, making her look especially captivating.

Looking at Sylvia like this, Fang Li found himself unable to look away as well.

Even though she was still in disguise, Fang Li genuinely felt that Sylvia looked exceptionally beautiful at this moment.

So, Fang Li smiled and said, “Then, want to go dance?”

“Yes.” Sylvia answered without the slightest hesitation, then added with a smile, “But I don’t want to dance looking like this. Wait for me here.”

After leaving those words behind, Sylvia ran off.

Presumably, Sylvia had gone to find a secluded place to remove her body disguise.

If she removed her disguise in public, then within less than half an hour, the appearance of Sylvia after taking off her disguise would spread across the entire world.

By then, she would no longer be able to use that disguised appearance to hide her identity.

“In other words, are you really planning to dance with me using your real face?”

Fang Li felt that his peaceful days had truly come to an end at this Daihasei Festival.

Once they danced together, Fang Li would become completely famous.

Even so, Fang Li had no intention of refusing.

After all, it was one of Sylvia’s small wishes.

Just as Fang Li was waiting for Sylvia to return, someone else arrived first.

“””Ooooooooooh…!”””

Accompanied by imposing battle cries, three black shadows lunged at Fang Li from behind.

Without even thinking, Fang Li turned around directly.

Bang!

The first muffled sound rang out as Fang Li’s fist slammed into one shadow’s chest.

Bang!

The second muffled sound followed as Fang Li’s knee drove viciously into another shadow’s stomach.

Bang!

The third muffled sound came as Fang Li’s head smashed heavily into the last shadow’s forehead.

“””Guhwu…?!”””

The next second, accompanied by three neatly synchronized groans, the three attacking shadows all collapsed to the ground simultaneously, unable to get back up.

They were none other than the three idiots: Kamijou Touma, Tsuchimikado Motoharu, and Aogami Pierce.

Behind those three idiots, their classmates had also arrived together.

“Wow, has it already started?”

“So we still came too late!”

“Damn it, I thought if we came earlier, maybe I’d get lucky enough to meet some beautiful girl and get invited to dance…”

“Hey, wake up already. That’s not realistic.”

The boys and girls from the class chattered noisily among themselves, completely ignoring the three idiots sprawled on the ground.

Among them were Fukiyose Seiri and Himegami Aisa as well.

“Even though this is spontaneous, hopefully afterward they won’t leave trash scattered all over the place, right?”

Filled with a strong sense of responsibility, Fukiyose Seiri, who had been extremely active as an operations committee member during these seven days, started worrying about something entirely unnecessary.

“Anyway, there are cleaning robots.”

Expressionless as ever, Himegami Aisa stated the truth that made such worries unnecessary.

At this point, the three idiots suddenly sprang back up.

“””Don’t ignore us!”””

Their loud protest was, as always, completely ignored.

“Yo.”

Fang Li also greeted them as casually as usual.

“You all came together?”

That one sentence immediately earned him the resentment of everyone present.

“This damn winner in life…”

“So he really came by himself…”

“Could it be he actually came with some girl?”

“If that’s true, kill him.”

“Same.”

The students all voiced merciless remarks without holding back.
