The Fake Heiress Turns out to Be a True Tycoon!
Chapter 827: You’re Not Allowed to Touch Our Boss
CHAPTER 827: CHAPTER 827: YOU’RE NOT ALLOWED TO TOUCH OUR BOSS
The Academy of Mystique stipulates that outside demons who do not have demon records in the Capital Metropolitan are not qualified to directly enroll.
To enter the Academy of Mystique, one must either wait for open slots or have a demon endorse and recommend their admission.
Although Scarlett Jennings entered as an exchange student, she essentially came in on a recommendation quota thanks to Cassian Wolf.
Otherwise, according to normal regulations, half-demon children with weak demon clan bloodlines have no need to attend the Academy of Mystique.
Because they often cannot even awaken their demonic power.
Scarlett Jennings initially thought that if there was no way to get an internal recommendation, she would ask the dean to create a student identity at Sea City Taoist Academy for Dashiell and have him enroll as an exchange student like herself.
But now, since there is already a precedent for rewarding recommendation quotas, Scarlett Jennings sees no need to pursue more distant avenues.
Aaron Hearne did not expect that her maneuvers were indeed for the sake of this little flood dragon.
Knowing the origin of this flood snake, he did not understand whether she wanted to bring him to school because she regarded him as a friend, or because of that person who once raised the flood snake...
After discussing the matters Scarlett wanted to handle, Aaron Hearne did not linger.
On the other side, although the Academy of Mystique refused Scarlett Jennings’ requests, they still paid attention to the Hearne Clan, especially Aaron Hearne’s movements.
It was heard that he already knew of Scarlett Jennings’ situation at the school, yet had no intention of standing up for her, which greatly reassured the leading demon masters at the academy.
Back then, although Magnolia Hearne was a half-demon with a great demon birth mother, this Scarlett Jennings doesn’t even qualify as a half-demon, and there is truly no need to bestow too much honor upon her.
Being able to enter the Academy of Mystique for study as a half-demon is already an indulgence towards those of half-demon kind by the academy.
To still aim for treatment equivalent to pure demon bloodline clans is truly being too unwise.
Therefore, Scarlett Jennings’ "strike protest" was indeed not taken seriously by the academy side.
Scarlett Jennings also doesn’t care whether the Academy of Mystique takes it seriously or not, she is preparing to cause a commotion anyway.
What no one expected was that before Scarlett Jennings could submit her proposal for college reform, an incident occurred with the imp sprites in the three primary class young demon-level classes.
Just after morning lessons, Scarlett Jennings received an urgent call from the demon teacher in charge of teaching her in Primary Class One, asking her to return to the academy immediately.
It turns out that two days after she initiated her strike, the students in the three young demon-level classes suddenly also began a collective strike today!
At the entrance of the academy, as soon as Scarlett Jennings entered the door, the demon teacher pulled her and hurriedly walked inside.
Although this demon teacher initially had some critical views on her half-demon whelp bloodline, he did not deliberately target her like other demon teachers.
Especially after she demonstrated her ability to control her demonic power, his attitude toward her became much more gentle.
At this moment, he was indeed a bit anxious,
"The kids from the three classes somehow heard about your strike and suddenly decided to collectively strike today as well, blocking the door with desks. You need to persuade them, the demon master group is furious."
"You too, can’t you discuss things properly instead of using methods like strikes? Now you’ve alerted the demon master group, don’t even think about a reward; you’ll be disciplined instead!"
The demon teacher’s surname is Lai, and he was babbling on, instructing her to be polite when she met the other members of the demon master group later.
Scarlett Jennings walked silently, letting herself be led to the primary class’s classroom. Upon reaching the door, she saw a circle of demon teachers, everyone visibly displeased.
Upon seeing Scarlett Jennings, one of them immediately started reprimanding her,
"Since the Academy of Mystique was founded, there hasn’t been a single student like you, inciting a collective strike for all the imp sprites in the young demon level for your so-called reward!
Indeed, mixed with humankind blood, the demon bloodline is impure, cunning, sly, and will do anything to achieve their goal! I’m telling you, if you don’t handle this matter well today, I..."
Scarlett Jennings recognized the demon teacher in front of her as the one who first accused her of not notifying the demon teachers before rescuing the imp sprites that day, and who was reportedly always displeased with half-demon bloodlines.
Hearing him speak nonsense now, she instinctively furrowed her brows, intending to silence him. However, before she could act, a piece of fruit flew over from the classroom, striking the demon teacher on the head and interrupting his tirade.
Then, Din Rumble’s head popped out outside the classroom, his chubby face defiantly shouting,
"You are not allowed to shout at our leader!"
Inside the classroom, apart from him, the other imp sprites chimed in,
"Yes! Don’t scold our Chief Jiang! We weren’t incited by her to strike! We decided to do this ourselves!"
Whether it was Din Rumble or the other imp sprites, they all conveyed their determined intention to protect their leader.
They didn’t show a hint of embarrassment from their identity change.
After all, just a few days ago, they were calling Scarlett Jennings a running lackey.
However, for these imp sprites, though bloodline inheritance is important, the primary rule is always that the strong are respected.
Scarlett Jennings could single-handedly defeat an evil demon that took all of them combined to beat, and saved four kidnapped imp sprites. She was qualified to be their leader both in strength and in righteousness.
Since the leader chose a strike protest, they were definitely going to follow.
As for why they chose to follow today...
"If it weren’t for you lying to us before, saying the leader was injured and needed to recuperate and couldn’t attend class, we would’ve started the strike protest long ago! Are you treating us imp sprites like we’re three-year-old toddlers?!"
If they had known from the first day, they would have joined the strike immediately.
Fortunately, it’s not too late today.
Scarlett Jennings didn’t expect these imp sprites would defend her this way, even going as far as to strike to support her. A warm feeling flowed through her heart, and she was about to say something when the demon teacher opposite clearly became annoyed, sternly scolding the imp sprites of Din Rumble in the classroom,
"Don’t think I won’t dare to do anything to you! This is the Academy of Mystique, undisciplined ones will be punished!"
After saying this, he actually gathered demonic power in his hand and suddenly swung towards the window where Din Rumble was.
Scarlett Jennings’ eyes turned cold, her tail moved, and she swiftly stepped in front of the window. Simultaneously, a spirit talisman barrier unfurled with two fox tails, directly blocking the demon teacher’s attack.
"We came here to learn how to become qualified demon cultivators, not to be disciplined or punished by you."
The demon teacher showed disdain for Scarlett Jennings’ half-spirit talisman, half-demon tail defensive method,
"As a demon teacher of the academy, I have the authority to discipline them!"
He said this, looking sharply at Scarlett Jennings,
"The situation today is ultimately caused by you inciting them from behind and you are the one who most needs disciplining!"
A mixedblood monster, just appearing here already sullies our Academy of Mystique’s authenticity!
Seeing the demon teacher poised to attack Scarlett Jennings directly, the Din Rumble sprites inside quietly cursed in alarm and abruptly broke through the barricades, rushing out of the classroom in a flurry, firmly standing before Scarlett Jennings,
"You’re not allowed to touch our leader!"
