After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 389 - : 314. Principal White Cat Lolita, Dark Shadow Exposed?
Chapter 389: 314. Principal White Cat Lolita, Dark Shadow Exposed?
At the same time,
in Cyan City, the most famous academy within the province—Azure Sky Advanced Adventurers Academy—stood out prominently.
A colossal white pyramid-shaped building, it was situated within the first circle of the inner city district of Cyan City.
At the top of the pyramid structure, in front of a luxurious crystal floor-to-ceiling window, there was a row of exquisitely crafted stoves.
Thin smoke spiraled up, wafting from the chimney.
A petite silver-haired girl, standing on a stool with a pink apron featuring a pattern of cat paws tied around her waist, was busy at one of the stoves.
In her hand was a soup ladle, as she cooked a dish called Fish-Flavored Shredded Pork.
The girl probably didn’t reach 1.4 meters in height, with adorable white cat ears on her head. Her small face was like a porcelain work of art, her pale purple pupils like two jewels set in the night sky.
She had a three-dimensional face, petite yet with a mature look to it. It was a pity that her expression was somewhat indifferent.
When she tasted the soup on the ladle, the corner of her mouth gently lifted; her white cat tail made happy circles behind her, and her cat ears twitched.
“You’ve got half of the captain’s skill,”

The silver-haired, purple-eyed petite girl laughed softly, exuding a mature charm. Yet, the way she stood with one hand on her hip while wearing a pink apron was incredibly cute, a perfect fusion of two contrasting qualities.
Perhaps this was why cat girls were so beloved by adventurers.
Standing in front of the stove, cooking to entertain the guests, this petite cat girl was none other than the dean of Azure Sky University, who, before her retirement, was a highly renowned adventurer in the Royal Capital: the White Cat Swordsman, Bailuo.
This top floor of the building was the dean’s exclusive office.
Of course, calling it an office is a bit of a stretch; it’s more like a luxurious hotel, with everything from a bathroom, kitchen, living room, entertainment room, training room, to a storeroom, covering an area of three hundred square meters.
And the only resident in this imposing “house” was the reclusive tiny cat girl, not even 1.4 meters tall.
Every student who learned about this would gaze towards the top floor with longing, hoping that one day they might meet the mysterious cat girl dean, and better if they could be called to the office for individual training.
Leaving the kitchen and entering the living room, one would find various elegant and unique decorations, tea sets, wood carvings of Magical Creatures, and ceremonial swords hung on the walls, each embedded with various types of gems, all crafted by famous artisans.
It was evident that the house’s owner had extremely good taste.
Besides that, there were many framed oil paintings.
Strangely, it seemed all paintings were of the same person.
Wearing a pure white mask with no face, clad in a pitch-black coat.
There was a painting of this person wielding a magic sword, standing with his back to a mass of Magical Creatures; another of him standing under a large tree in the yard, gazing up pensively at the moonlight; and even a comical one where he faced a chair but couldn’t seem to sit down…
A vast array of oil paintings, all somehow related to this man.
“It’s ready to serve,”
The cat girl standing on the stool nodded satisfactorily and picked up the pan with thick insulated gloves on her hands.
With her power, even a thousand-degree heat could not harm her, but she was getting used to “living a regular life after she and her teacher retired from being adventurers.”
Bailuo laid out the dishes one by one on the table in the living room, in order to entertain her long-lost old teammate, the Tiger Man girl Taige.
“Wow, Fish-Flavored Shredded Pork, Braised Potatoes with Beef, Pan-Fried Dumplings, all of Captain’s best dishes. It’s been so long since I’ve had these!”
Taige’s red hair was a mess; it was clear it hadn’t been cared for in quite some time. She was dressed in simple leather clothing: a top and shorts that highlighted her wheat-colored, full thighs.
Despite the cold winter, Taige seemed as if she had come from the hot summers of the south.
Her relationship with Bailuo was extraordinary, and even after their team disbanded, they stayed in touch.
Today, Taige’s visit to Bailuo’s home was about a Recording Stone.
The contents of the Recording Stone were sure to interest Bailuo.
Taige was shocked when she first saw it, almost thinking her eyes were playing tricks on her.
Their captain, who vanished three years ago, could he have reappeared on the continent?
Unable to judge the truth for herself, she came to seek understanding from the more astute Bailuo.
The origin of the Recording Stone was the Great Mystery Continent near White Dove City.
Inside it was one simple thing, a shining sword enveloped in Black Flame.
Its might was significant, at least of Light Rank.
What intrigued Taige was that the sword’s radiance was incredibly familiar, reminiscent of their former captain.
However, when Bailuo started serving the dishes, Taige’s attention shifted entirely to them.
Seeing the table full of sumptuous food, she involuntarily drooled, and her stomach started to growl.
Taige didn’t bother with chopsticks; she hastily reached out her hand, grabbed a pan-fried dumpling, and threw it into her mouth.
Upon biting into the crispy skin, juice spurted out in her mouth.
With a moan of “mm,” Taige clasped her cheeks with both hands, indulging in sheer bliss.
“Mmm, Bailuo, you’re amazing. So strong and skilled at cooking, why did you retire?”
Taige moved, overcome with emotion, and lunged at the petite cat girl, causing both to topple onto the sofa. She rubbed her cheek against the other’s chest, suspiciously close to taking liberties.
Bailuo shook her head in resignation, positioned Taige’s head on her lap, and gently kneaded the Tiger ears while helping to tidy up the tousled red hair.
In a soft voice, like that of a tender elder sister if one closed their eyes, she said, “Because this was my teacher’s command. I had to retire first to train to be a bride, to become a wise and virtuous wife and mother worthy of my teacher.”
