Chapter 88 The Probing of Both Sides



Chapter 88 The Probing of Both Sides

Upon entering, they caused a great uproar; Glenn's peculiar attire was completely out of place among the researchers.

The face, especially the one covered by the mask, sparked a lot of discussion.

"Who's that person accompanying Principal Kiran, Scholar Carl? What a show-off!"

"Show-off? That's more like strikingly handsome. Didn't you see the taut muscle definition all over his body? He's definitely a warrior."

"I must say, he definitely has an extraordinary air about him."

"How did we get off-topic? Weren't we supposed to be discussing who he is?"

"Yes!"

"Judging from the situation, these must be the guests that Principal Kiran went out to greet!"

"Oh! That's the alien who entered our radiation range without requesting permission."

"It turns out it's him!"

"But judging from the serious expressions on Principal Kiran's and Scholar Karl's faces, that person must be quite extraordinary!"

"definitely."

The surrounding whispers and stares made Glenn feel like a monkey being watched, with no privacy whatsoever.

Perhaps sensing Glenn's unusual behavior, Carl sighed and explained:

"They're always like that; years of research make them interested in anything new and interesting. You just get used to it."

Sensing Karl's helplessness, Glenn immediately understood that Principal Kiran and he must be treated like this every day. After all, they were the heads of the Super God Academy. If they didn't talk about him, who would they talk about? Gossip would begin from there.

"understand!"

Thinking of his experience, Glenn thought of his own. Wasn't he the same in the Angelic Civilization? Among a group of girls in short skirts, there was only one male. Everyone was curious about him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have stayed in a remote area to conduct research alone. He was just afraid of being harassed!

At this moment, Karl was completely baffled, thinking to himself:

"What do you understand?"

The unsettling attention finally dissipated after they entered a room, and both Carl and Glenn breathed a sigh of relief.

The two exchanged a glance, nodded in perfect unison, and then looked away.

The feeling of being kindred spirits brought them closer this time, and Glenn's initial sense of unfamiliarity with the place lessened considerably.

Although Karl will be a big boss in the future, that's tens of thousands of years from now. Right now, he's just a handsome scholar. What bad intentions could he possibly have?

Kieran paid no attention to external interference throughout, continuing on his way until he arrived at a lounge. He pointed to a soft, firm sofa and gestured:

"Please have a seat. I think no one will disturb our conversation here."

"Thank you!"

Glenn said politely, then casually found a seat and sat down, fully enjoying the local atmosphere. Although it was just a sofa, it didn't stop him from enjoying the tranquility of the moment. After a thousand years of wandering, he had finally encountered a decent group of people.

"Click!"

A crisp clinking sound caught Glenn's attention. Glenn's gaze shifted downwards, and he was immediately drawn to the teacup on the table, where only a wisp of steam rose.

He glanced at Principal Kiran with a puzzled look, but when he raised his hand in a gesture, he understood what he meant.

This is an invitation to tea! Why make such a fuss over nothing, acting all mysterious?

Glenn didn't stand on ceremony. Since they had served tea to show their sincerity, he couldn't refuse them, could he?

With a slight lift of his hand, the teacup automatically detached from the table and slowly came into Glenn's hand.

This move immediately surprised Kieran and the other, who hadn't expected the Shadow King to have such abilities.

As Glenn picked up his teacup, he took a slight sniff, and the delicate fragrance emanating from the pale red tea immediately filled his nostrils as if it had vanished into thin air.

“Good tea!”

Glenn said without hesitation, "Just from the aroma of the tea, I can imagine how mellow and refreshing this cup of tea is."

Although he really wanted to take a sip, the mask covering his face made Glenn put down his teacup.

Although this tea was mellow, Keisha's fragrant tea was still better; after all, tea brewed by a beautiful woman is a plus.

By this time, Glenn understood Kieran's meaning. Wasn't he just trying to see his true face? Was it really necessary to go to such lengths? However, he really couldn't take it off, or it would cause some trouble.

"The tea is good, but it's a pity that I can't drink it."

Glenn's words had a hidden meaning.

Kieran nodded slightly and said:

"That's a bit of a pity. This is one of the few Pulu Xiang teas from the Shenhe Civilization. Its place of origin has disappeared, and only one remains. Its production is extremely rare."

Glenn, after hearing this, said sarcastically:

"Oh! That is indeed quite precious. It's my fault for making Principal Kiran spend so much money."

Kieran also exchanged a few polite words at the appropriate time.

"No need for that. If Shadow King likes it, I can give you some."

Glenn shamelessly agreed:

"Is that so? Then I shall accept."

"..."

Kieran looked at the shameless Glenn in front of him with some helplessness. It was just a test, was it really necessary to be like this?

Carl looked at the two men's veiled conversation and felt somewhat helpless. What was wrong with the teachers today?

The two's probing finally ended, and the atmosphere became particularly awkward. Karl felt uncomfortable caught in the middle. He wanted to leave, but felt it was inappropriate, since his teacher and guest were both there!

To be honest, Principal Kieran had too many questions in his mind at this moment. He wanted to know about the situation of the Angel Civilization, the authenticity of Glenn's identity, and the strange patterns on the ship's hull. However, Glenn had to agree to all of this. The reason he tested Glenn with tea was to take the opportunity to see his true colors. Otherwise, he would not want to pay any attention to this guy and would let Karl entertain him.

For a moment, the two sides were deadlocked. Principal Kieran remained motionless like a statue, while Glenn closed his eyes to rest, completely uninterested, showing no intention of breaking the deadlock first.

Just then, Karl, who had been standing still, hesitated and said:

"Teacher, we still have work to do. Why don't I take Shadow King to rest first, and we can talk again tomorrow? After all, Shadow King has just arrived in the Deno system and must be exhausted. He needs to rest."

His voice made Glenn, who had been resting with his eyes closed, open them and say, feigning weakness:

"Yes! The journey has been tiring, after all, wandering the universe alone is a tough thing."

Even the unmoving Kieran spoke up and gave the order:

"Karl, take Lord Shadow King to rest! I can discuss some things tomorrow. There are still some arrangements for the Super God Academy that haven't been made today, so I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, he stepped out of the room without leaving a trace.

Carl paused, glanced awkwardly at Glenn, and explained with a forced expression:

"The teacher is not usually like this; perhaps today is an exception."

Glenn didn't care about the far-fetched explanation. He found it somewhat amusing that the old man in space was still so stubborn at this point.

With a slight effort in his waist, he stood up and casually said:

"Let's go! The old-fashioned guy is gone. We young people should enjoy ourselves. Lead the way, show me around your place. I think the scenery is pretty good!"

When Glenn described himself as honest and old-fashioned, Carl didn't object at all. Sometimes he just felt that his teacher was a bit old-fashioned. Although he was exceptionally intelligent, his way of dealing with people was still a headache, and Carl had to handle some things for him.

Feeling inexplicably cheerful, Karl said happily:

"Alright, I'll show you around our Academy City. This is a rare opportunity!"

I don't know when it started, but Carl has changed his way of addressing Glenn from "you" to "you".
