I Obviously Just Want to be a Minor Character CH.11
Chapter 11: Where are you?
As the only facility in Longyao Base City that trained and educated hunters and warlocks, the Demon-Hunting Academy naturally had its own official website.
Students could check their daily courses on the website, learn about the latest news in the academy, and even check the mission board to select those they wanted to complete.
Naturally, students would also chat on the forums of the official website when they were bored.
That was how An Zijin’s popularity had risen.
Even now, one could see An Zijin’s photos in the latest posts. Someone had even created a thread dedicated to An Zijin, and the post had already received nearly a million responses. It was truly ridiculous.
It must be noted that there were only a few thousand students in the entire Demon-Hunting Academy.
A couple thousand people built such a tall thread in just a few days. One could imagine how many perverts contributed to this.
Generally speaking, aside from the people in the college, not many others would enter the official website to post.
This showed how crazy the netizens were and how low their morals had fallen.
But after today, another big piece of news was bound to replace An Zijin’s popularity for a while and be the talk of the town.
That was Xu Qianqian going to the boys’ dormitory to find Su Ming and giving him a note.
When this news came out, countless people were shocked.
“Xu Qianqian actually went to the boys’ dormitory?”
“She went to give a boy a note?”
“I don’t believe it!”
“Who doesn’t know Xu Qianqian is very aloof?”
“It’s basically impossible for her to go to the boys’ dormitory, okay?”
“That’s right.”
Of course, at first, everyone was unwilling to believe it.
But as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. When a photo of Xu Qianqian giving Su Ming a note appeared on the forum, everyone exploded.
“Is it actually true?!”
“My god!”
“Who is this guy? Why did Senior Qianqian give him a note?”
“Wah, my dear elder sister!”
“Why has our queen fallen so low?”
“Brothers! Quickly find out who this guy is!”
“I want to know who he is and exactly what happened within the next minute!”
The forum was gradually overtaken by such comments. Everyone was paying attention to this matter and began to dig up information on Su Ming, finding out all sorts of details.
Now, everyone in the entire academy knew Su Ming and he was a Minor character!
“He’s a second-year student who just enrolled?”
“Average grades, average performance, average number of missions completed. This–-”
“Isn’t that pretty average?”
“His attendance rate is very high. Other than the necessary absences during missions, he’s never missed a single class.”
“He’s also very handsome. Can that be considered a highlight?”
“But isn’t there a whole bunch of handsome guys in the Warlock Division?”
“That’s right. There are even people who are more handsome than Su Ming, including Senior Li Wei from the Hunter Division.”
“So he’s just average!”
The result of the human search left many people confused.
From the looks of it, Su Ming shouldn’t have any connection to Xu Qianqian at all.
Even if Xu Qianqian needed someone to help her with a certain task, she should have asked someone with better grades.
Or was it that Su Ming had some rare spiritual technique that just so happened to be something Xu Qianqian needed, so she came knocking on his door?
But there was no need to go to the boys’ dormitory to ask for help. There were other ways to achieve her goal, right?
The students were concerned about Xu Qianqian personally going to the boys’ dormitory and handing a note to a specific boy.
If it were anyone else, it wouldn’t have been such a big deal. But for the cold and aloof Xu Qianqian, this was quite strange.
It was well known that this Demon-Hunting Academy’s school beauty didn’t like to interact with others.
Never mind the opposite sex, she rarely even spoke to other girls.
In the past, anyone who tried to strike up a conversation with Xu Qianqian would always leave defeated. Hardly anyone could get close to her.
Those who wanted to get close to An Zijin were stopped by her fan club, but those who wanted to get close to Xu Qianqian were all rejected by the girl herself.
This had happened when Xu Qianqian first enrolled in the academy.
“Xu Miss Qianqian, I like you. Please go out with me!”
A brave soul had launched a direct attack on the high-mountain flower who had caused a stir as soon as she stepped foot in the academy.
Unfortunately, Xu Qianqian’s response was even more straightforward.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t like you. Please stay away from me.”
It was that blunt and cold.
Many seniors remember this scene clearly.
Because of this, Xu Qianqian was considered a cold and aloof high-mountain flower.
If An Zijin was a narcissus that attracted bees and butterflies, then Xu Qianqian was a thorny rose.
Xu Qianqian maintained this image for more than two years. Even the current head of the Hunter Division, Li Wei, who was in his fourth year, had hit a wall countless times after publicly announcing that he would pursue Xu Qianqian.
Because of this, many wild rumours about her circulated amongst the Demon-Hunting Academy.
Such as not wanting to associate with common people because she came from a prominent family or being asexual.
There were even some who believed Xu Qianqian to be already engaged. The prominent family behind had arranged a marriage for her and would not allow her to rashly approach others.
These rumours had been spreading for two years, naturally attracting the attention of many curious and malicious people to Xu Qianqian’s private life.
Now, Xu Qianqian had suddenly broken her previous image and personally ran to the boys’ dormitory to hand a note to an “unknown” boy. No matter what, this would naturally cause a massive discussion.
All sorts of guesses began to appear.
In short, Su Ming had finally become popular.
The low profile he had maintained for a year was shattered in a moment.
…
While Su Ming and Xu Qianqian’s matter was being discussed like a raging fire, some unknown conversations also appeared in the corners of the Demon-Hunting Academy.
“Su Ming?”
On a training field, a young man with an incomparably handsome face and a muscular body that could rival that of a fitness instructor was wiping the sweat from his brow with a towel while looking at the heated discussion on the forums. His brows furrowed deeply.
Next to him, several other students who had been training together seemed to be discussing this matter as well.
“No way? That Xu Qianqian?”
“I don’t believe it either.”
“But the facts are right in front of us. We can’t not believe it.”
“Who exactly is this Su Ming? Why did Xu Qianqian go find him?”
“Could it be that the goddess has finally opened her eyes and is going to date a pretty boy from the Warlock Division?”
“Xu Qianqian is already in her third year, and our college is a four-year program. She only has about two years left in the academy, so it’s not strange for her to want to date before graduation.”
“Then why did she have to go find a pretty boy from the Warlock Division? Does our Hunter Division not have any good men?”
“That’s right, those pretty boys from the Warlock Division are all so skinny and weak. Can they even handle it?”
“Uh, are you trying to drive me crazy?”
“I’m not! I’m not! Don’t say that!”
The more the students of the Hunter Division discussed, the more heated the conversation became. It was even starting to veer off-topic.
This made Li Wei feel a little uneasy.
Two students approached him.
“Boss, are you okay?”
“These guys are just talkative. Should I teach them a lesson?”
“Teach them a lesson?” Li Wei asked expressionlessly. “They’re just discussing something. What reason is there to teach them a lesson?”
“How is there no reason?” one of them said indignantly. “In the entire Demon-Hunting Academy, who doesn’t know that you, Chief Li Wei, are pursuing Xu Qianqian?”
“That’s right,” the other agreed. “With these people saying all these things, Boss, you must be having a hard time.”
“Don’t mind them.” Li Wei tossed the towel in his hand aside and said darkly, “I’ll tell them, I’ll tell Xu Qianqian that in this Demon-Hunting Academy, only I, Li Wei, am worthy of her.”
The two students looked at each other.
“Then Boss, what about Su Ming?”
“Should we…”
They were planning on giving him a beating.
Li Wei glared at them.
“What do you two want?” Li Wei asked coldly. “Maybe Qianqian really did have something important to discuss with him. If you bother him because of this, aren’t you going to make Qianqian dislike me?”
The two immediately stopped talking.
“Let’s take a look first.” Li Wei shot a glance at the photo Su Ming had posted on the forum and said, “We’ll talk after we’ve done that.”
What else could the two lackeys do?
They could only nod.
…
Demon-Hunting Academy, female dormitory.
In one of the rooms, An Zijin was also listening to her two roommates discuss this matter.
“This senior Su Ming is pretty impressive.”
“If he can steal the darling of the Hunter Division, then he really is impressive.”
The two chatted and giggled.
An Zijin sat on the side, looking at the photo of Su Ming on the official forum. Her eyes were filled with a mysterious expression.
“Is this Su Ming my Big Brother Su Ming?”
An Zijin was worried about this very thing.
An Zijin had originally planned to go find her Big Brother Su Ming after the heat of her popularity died down and reunite with her childhood friend. Who could have known that she would suddenly encounter such earth-shattering news today?
An Zijin wasn’t sure if this Su Ming was the same Su Ming she knew. After all, it had been more than ten years since they last met. She had changed a lot, so what had become of her Big Brother Su Ming? An Zijin really didn’t know.
So, An Zijin desperately needed to know if this Su Ming was her Big Brother Su Ming.
“I can’t let this go. I have to find a chance to confirm it.”
An Zijin made her decision.
At this time, An Zijin didn’t know that it was precisely this decision that would lead to her first direct confrontation with another high mountain flower of the Demon-Hunting Academy.
