Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva-Chapter 379 - 127: Past Events of the Student Council

The group from ’Gothic Doll’ returned, and before leaving, they highly praised the collaboration, finding all aspects highly satisfactory.

"Although I’m a bit anxious myself, the promotional video might take some time before it airs on various platforms," Li Xun told Tilan before she left.

"Because we need to stock up in advance, so as not to end up in the embarrassing situation of having nothing to sell after the promotion."

"So, for now, we just have to be a little patient~" Experience new tales on novelbuddy

"Oh right, since the designers in the group really like Tilan, but they aren’t very good at socializing, they asked me to give you a few gifts." Li Xun said, clapped her hands, and then took out a box from the pile of luggage behind her.

"Inside is a Transcendent costume, as well as various matching accessories and small parts. Its combat utility may be average, but the costume is meticulously crafted for beauty." She then opened the box lid, revealing the folded clothes inside.

The dress was primarily black with ethereal blue accents, seemingly inspired by butterflies. The edges were soft black with butterfly wing contours interspersed with gradient blues wrapped in black. The skirt resembled overlapping butterfly wings, accompanied by black stockings dotted with stars, black gloves with lifelike butterflies resting on the back of the hands, and a vertically set ethereal blue diamond gemstone on the chest that provided and stored the costume’s Magic Power. The shoulders featured lace patterns with cutouts.

"The costume has engraved patterns that can activate three effects: ’Butterfly Wings Unfolding,’ ’Shadow Flicker,’ ’Wingsbeat,’" she explained.

"’Butterfly Wings Unfolding’ creates magical woven butterfly wings at the back of the costume to assist with flight and reduce weight. ’Shadow Flicker’ allows one to enter a Phasing ghost state for 1 second, to dodge certain attacks, and ’Wingsbeat’ offers a brief speed boost, multiplying one’s speed for 3-5 seconds, the exact effect varying from person to person."

"Overall, it’s rated as Perfect Radiant Gold Level. While its protective strength is average, it has a significant advantage in speed boosts, making it suitable for professions that favor rapid attacks and high lethality."

"Thank you," the girl expressed her heartfelt gratitude, considering she had done little yet received such a precious gift.

"All right, I’m actually more looking forward to seeing Tilan wearing it. Promise me, if you wear it later, you must send a selfie or a video to me. Don’t worry, I won’t promote it everywhere," Li Xun gently pressed on Tilan’s shoulder and whispered in her ear.

The girl stepped back and nodded, indicating she understood.

"Well, then I’m off, see you later." With that, she rejoined her group, boarded the Flight vehicle, and then disappeared into the distant sky.

After completing the task, Tilan spent a day reflecting and summarizing the entire process before writing a report and handing it in to President Amors of Edith Academy.

"Not bad, very good. It seems you’re progressing quickly and gradually adapting to the current work," Amors nodded occasionally as he read the report.

"This makes me confident to assign the next task to you." He tapped the armrest of his chair lightly and pondered.

"There seems no reason to delay further, so let’s start from today," he said, stood up, opened a safe compartment behind the bookshelf, and pulled out a thick folder.

"To unite the power of the entire Academy, we must first remove some bad influences and the chronic irritants. You probably guess whom I’m talking about."

"Yes, the ’Indigo Cornflower’ group," he said, flipping through the folder, which contained a detailed introduction to the development, history, members, and incidents of the group.

"Are you curious why so many scandals have erupted from this group, yet the Academy administration hasn’t dealt with it?"

"Indeed, a little," Tilan admitted with curiosity.

"That’s because the responsibilities of managing students mostly fall to us, the student government, and the Academy administration isn’t convenient to intervene directly."

"First, you need to understand that the Academy’s sponsorships and many resources come from alumni who have graduated and organizations closely associated with the Academy."

"In return, they can enroll their children into the Academy with ease, bypassing the harsh entrance examinations. Each year, about 35% of the new students come from such families. Now you might be getting an idea, so let me continue," Amors leaned forward on his arms as he explained.

"This preferential treatment is universally applied, meaning if you contribute to the Academy, you can easily send your children here."

"If the Academy administration took action and expelled these students, it would break a long-standing tacit agreement, damaging this invisible contract, or causing a certain amount of panic, making it unreliable and untrustworthy."

"You don’t need to explain why a student is expelled; simply seeing this would cause panic, and those who sponsor and invest in the Academy might hesitate or consider investing in a different Academy instead."

"Thus, even if some students perform poorly, the Academy administration can’t easily get involved and can do little more than issue warnings, as other forms of punishment are limited. The Academy can neither corporally punish nor confine students, as that would be illegal and could lead to a media crisis."

"So, who then maintains the order and rules within the Academy? That’s where we come in. Though it’s still a punishment, because we are all students, even if the adults and older generation get involved later, it can be dismissed as ’children’s squabbles,’ lessening the impact. This also leaves the Academy administration with the room to intervene later if needed, rather than starting off being directly involved and having no room for rectification afterward."
