Sammy, in the lead, hurried to turn around, but his head seemed to be attracted by what was inside the room. Donnie, who was behind him, was busy reading the number on the door. As a result, the two of them bumped into each other.
 


Wait. How do you know that you’re in the wrong dormitory when you haven’t seen the number yet? Have you already been to your dormitory, and you realize that you’re in the wrong one because of the different arrangements in the room? But you still have your luggage in your hands! Huh, you have a twin ghost on your back! That’s a very special spiritual phenomenon. It will be very helpful for us to unravel the specific structure of the soul…
A magnetic and pleasant male voice came from the room.
 

The familiar voice and the talking that never seemed to finish struck Donnie like a lightning. He was completely stunned.
 

Karl?

 

How is it possible? 

The guy turned out to be his roommate!
 

A picture suddenly popped up in his head. He was surrounded by dozens of knights at gunpoint, and in the sky were the views of tides, suns, and bolts of lightning made by the radiant knights who could be elementized.
The horrible picture made Donnie’s body shiver. While Karl was warm and amiable, it did not mean that the knights who were protecting him were the same. Perhaps, his innocent mistake would lead to overreactions. Also, Karl might not be as simple-headed as he seemed!
 


M… Miss, how can I not know I am in the wrong dormitory after I see you?
Sammy said, blushing. Because of the Back Spirit, few girls were ever interested in him. Whenever he faced his female classmates, he was either in dire need of sleep or he became extremely awkward and clumsy.
 


Who’s a miss? I am, without any questions, a man, a knight who protects ladies, and an arcanist who pursues the truth. What makes you think I am a girl?
Karl sounded angry.
 

Fuzzy and anxious, Sammy blurted out,
What makes you think you are not a girl…

 

Before he finished his sentence, his mouth had been stifled by Donnie, who feared that he would infuriate Karl and let them be fired upon by electromagnetic cannons.
 

With a flattering smile, Donnie moved his head aside and looked at Karl through the gap between Sammy and the door frame.
Karl, it’s been a long…

 

His voice came to an abrupt halt, and he forgot to close his mouth. Staring at Karl inside, he looked like a statue.
 

Today, Karl was wearing the standard long robe of the Heidler Magic College, which further highlighted his fair skin. The sloppy clothes covered the body curve that he did not have. Together with his pretty face and his glittering silver eyes, he would make everyone think that he was a flawless and beautiful girl.
 

The greatest feature of the robe of the college in classic style was that it was genderless! The manly air that Karl added to himself with male clothes, bow-ties, etc. was gone, and he looked no different from any other female students. No wonder Sammy was in a hurry to apologize.
 

Suddenly, an idea occurred to him. If he spent a lot of time with Karl, would he find the other girls too ordinary when he hung around with them?
 


You… You… You… You are Donnie?
Karl finally remembered Donnie’s name. He was briefly stunned.
You’re my roommate too?

 

The slight blush on his fair face suddenly reddened, and his glittering eyes became sharp. The intimidating vibe made the ghost on Sammy’s back crouch again.
 

Donnie took half a step back and looked at Karl in shock, with messy ideas like
it’s dangerous
,
I should take cover
, and
why is he angry?
in his head. However, after looking around, Karl immediately lost the threatening gaze and said with a blooming smile,
We’re now roommates! How coincidental is that! Is this your friend? Is he our roommate too? I planned to buy you dinner to apologize after the exam is over, but I had to leave early because of a minor accident in the afternoon exam. I didn’t expect to meet you again on the first day of college. Are you majoring in body structure and genetics too? Then, we will probably be classmates…

 

Karl’s eloquence woke Sammy up from his embarrassment. He looked around and read the sign on the door again.
You are really a guy?

 

It was truly unbelievable!
 


Of course, I am an authentic man!
Karl said proudly and waved his arms.
Do you want to try my strength? Donnie knows it. I am very strong. I can crush five people of your body size in one punch. Well, it’s just a joke. My strength is only mediocre…

 

With a bitter face, Sammy said,
I believe you. I do.

 

He already saw the Adam’s apple on Karl. Now that he was no longer in a panic, he also sensed the maliciousness of the world exactly as Donnie did.
 


Come on in. As roommates, we need to help and encourage each other in the future in order to make progress together so that we can walk further in the journey to explore the mysteries of genetics and souls…
Karl bowed slightly and extended his left hand, like a graceful gentleman.
 

Why is he so talkative? Also, he is as formal as a news anchor… 
Donnie wiped his sweat and stopped looking at Karl’s face that could be compared to the most beautiful girl’s as he feared that his expectations would be raised too high.
 

The dormitory of the Heidler Magic College was not splendid, but it was clean and tidy. Four beds made of black metal had been placed next to the walls. Before the beds were everybody’s desk.
 

The desk was made of bright yellow wood and divided into two floors. On the upper floor, there was a bookshelf. Behind the closet in the back, it was a door that seemed to lead to the balcony and the bathroom.
 


There’s a home TV by the door. Everybody has their own magic refrigerator on their nightstand. Right, the two pieces of metal on the bed are magic radios that you can stuff in your ears so that you will not affect other people when you listen to Arcana Voice at night. However, there are no magic air conditioners in this place because the whole Heidler Magic College is covered in magic circles and set at a permanent temperature that is neither too cold nor too hot. And such, magic air conditioners are not necessary…

 


The moment Donnie dragged the suitcase to an empty bed, he heard Karl’s magnetic voice. The guy introduced the items in the room thoroughly and enthusiastically.
 

Does he not have many chances to talk on other occasions? That’s unlikely. Who can stop such a big shot like him from talking? 
A weird thought occurred to Donnie.
 


It’s a shame that there’s no room for pianos, violins, or flutes here, and magic gramophones and players are forbidden too. As a matter of fact, there is a lot of music that I would like to share with you. I have created some works myself too…
Karl said in disappointment.
 

The magic players were the improved version of gramophones. They could store more music as well as more convenient to use.
 


Behind that door is the balcony. On the left side of the balcony is the bathroom. There is no kitchen, no living room…

 

At this moment, Sammy, whose bed was next to Donnie’s, could not stand such a
pretty girl
making male voice anymore. So, he combed his messy hair and said,
Donnie, put on your magic robe. We have to pick our courses and mentor.

 


Haha. I just did it yesterday,
Karl interjected without any self-awareness.
How about it? Do you want me to introduce it to you?

 


He seemed to be asking, but he immediately said without waiting,
The most distinguished mentor on body structure and genetics is naturally Mr. Felipe. However, he is also the director of the Laboratory of Heretics, and since he works on the cutting edge of necromancy, he does not have much time except for the occasional open classes. The other teachers each have their own specialties. For example…

 

Donnie felt that his head had grown huge.
We came late, and we don’t want to miss the course selection today. Karl, how about we talk later while we are on the way?

 

He was told that all the classes of the magic college were to be selected publicly. If they were late, the classes with great teachers would be full.
 

He couldn’t help but complain about the Heidler Magic College. It was said that the other colleges would ask the students to select the courses after they all arrived, but here, the students who came early got to select early. However, it did agree with the habit of coldness and indifference of the school of necromancy.
 



Alright, I’ll tell you the details on the way. You must not select the teachers who are too busy doing their own research to teach classes or those who are not professionals themselves…
Karl said with a brilliant smile.
 

Donnie and Sammy looked at each other with a bitter smile, both felt that there was no way they could stop Karl from talking.
 

Putting down the suitcase, Sammy picked up the magic robe to distinguish the front side from the back. Then, he unbuttoned his clothes. However, he had a very uncomfortable feeling while unbuttoning his clothes, although the ghost on his back showed no reaction as if nothing was wrong.
 

He looked at Donnie, only to discover that Donnie was also stunned after he took off half of his old school uniform.
 


Why have you stopped?
Karl said at the perfect moment.
 

Both Sammy and Donnie turned around, only to discover that Karl was looking at the two of them with his big, beautiful silver eyes.
 

Immediately, they understood why they felt uneasy. It was the same as taking off clothes in front of a girl!
 


Well, Karl, do you mind turning around?
Donnie said awkwardly.
 

Karl was stunned.
Why? We are all guys.

 


Donnie thought for a moment and replied with what he learned from the noble etiquette class,
Even guys should also respect each other’s privacy.

 

Karl nodded and did not say anything else. He walked out of the dormitory.
 

Donnie and Sammy seized the moment to take off their old clothes and put on the magic robes and the corresponding shirts. In the end, they clipped the emblem of pale fire and their badges of apprentice and intern arcanist on their clothes.
 


Let’s go.
Donnie was greatly relieved after he changed his clothes.
 


Alright!
At this moment, a strange voice suddenly echoed, giving both of them a shock.
 

Looking at the source of the voice, they discovered a plain-looking, fat young man, who had black hair and blue eyes before another bed.
 


When did you come in?
Sammy asked in confusion.
 

The young man replied with a smile,
I’ve been here all the time. I came to this dormitory earlier than you did, but you didn’t notice me.
 


Hehe. My name is Jones. I am your roommate, and I will major in the soul.

 


How is it possible?
Donnie blurted out. He had carefully observed everything when he came in. Also, Sammy’s ghost had powerful instincts.
 

Jones opened his hands.
There’s nothing I can do about it. Wherever I stand, it seems that I am under the stealth skill. The guy who informed me to take part in the College Entrance Exam almost couldn’t find me.

 



Then… Let’s go select the courses together.
Donnie gritted his teeth, and seeing that it was getting late, sent a friendly invitation.
 

This was definitely a room of weirdos!
