By the time Anne brought Hermione, who was bruised and swollen, and Irena, who was also bruised and swollen, back to the palace on the floating island, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening.
Originally, they could have come back earlier, but unfortunately, after Hermione completely missed her game, she broke the pot and had a small fight with Irena directly in the desert over the issue of profit distribution. It’s time to make up for that game.
But the result was that there was no winner between the two, and then, after being beaten until their noses were bruised and swollen, they were both brought back by a certain bad little girl teacher (professor) who had had enough of the fun.
then!
The three of them simply washed up and put on their pajamas before heading towards a lounge in the palace, ready to let the panda chefs prepare some midnight snacks to fill their hungry stomachs.
Especially Hermione, after experiencing the unforgettable Apparition, vomiting out everything in her stomach, even the overnight food and gall water, and fighting with Irena, now she There is an urgent need for a large amount of nutrients to supplement the body's consumption.
But...
What surprised the three of them a little was that when they arrived in the lounge, Misaka Mikoto, Shirai Kuroko, Index, Tohsaka Rin, Tohsaka Sakura, Illya, who should have rested long ago, and Luvia and the others were actually in the lounge, and there were abundant drinks and all kinds of delicious food on those tables, as if they were having a party and waiting for their return?
"!!"
"food!"
"Very good!"
In shock, Hermione, who was already hungry, cheered when she saw the tables full of food. Then, she no longer bothered to cover up the bruises on the corners of her mouth, arms, eyes, etc., and just jumped in with cheers. Go up, pick up a plate of spring rolls and devour them.
"Uh-huh..."
"Gulu!"
"ha!"
"Did you prepare it specially for us?"
"Thank you so much!"
While swallowing heavily and picking up a glass of mango ice to drink, Hermione did not forget to express her gratitude in vague sentences to the considerate friends around her.
To be honest, she was so hungry that she almost fainted in the bathroom while taking a shower, so now she didn't want to worry about anything but food.
"It's not specially prepared for you!"
"It's because one sister and those two bastards have both advanced, so we decided to hold this party..."
Shirai Kuroko said weakly.
But it's a pity that Hermione was just focusing on eating now and didn't even pay attention to what she said.
"Ouch!"
"Sister, what are you doing?"
Kuroko was about to continue talking, but Misaka Mikoto on the side suddenly shocked her, then pushed her aside and sat next to Hermione.
"Hello!"
"Hermione, how did you end up like this?"
"Is it dangerous?"
Mikoto pointed at the bruises on Hermione's face and hands, and then pointed at the man not far away who was also eating heavily. He was eating more gracefully than Hermione, but the scars on his face and hands were more serious. Irena asked curiously.
She knew that Hermione and Annie ran to rescue Irena who was in danger, and therefore missed the game, and now they came back with scars all over their faces and bodies. The battle must have been very, very difficult?
"Danger?"
"Uh-huh..."
"No la……"
Looking sideways at Misaka Mikoto, Hermione shook her head firmly and started eating again.
It wasn't dangerous. In fact, she didn't help from beginning to end, she just made trouble.
However, now she just wants to fill her stomach quickly, because she is so hungry that her chest is almost touching her back. She only feels that her bust is two circles smaller and her pajamas are a little loose. Therefore, in order to avoid certain parts of the body, The body's fat was taken away as nutrients, so she had better eat a full meal first.
"No?"
"If not, how did you end up like this?"
"and!"
"Why did you come back now and still miss the game?"
Mikoto looked disbelieving. She reached out and pressed a bruise on Hermione's arm.
"ah!"
"pain!!"
Hermione exclaimed and slapped Mikoto's unruly hand away.
"It was bitten by a gray, evil and ugly slime!"
"But don't worry!"
"I've given her a good beating!"
Hermione retracted her hand to prevent Mikoto from touching her, then she spoke pointedly while eating, and raised her eyes to someone not far away who was also eating and had a slightly moist gray head. The guy with long hair hanging around his shoulders said bitterly.
"??"
"Gray slime?"
Mikoto was a little confused, not knowing what kind of scary monster the gray slime Hermione was talking about was.
However, she still raised her head, followed Hermione's line of sight, and looked at Irena not far away who was also raising her head and looking here, as if she heard Hermione's words, and smiled and followed The other party said hello.
"That's right!"
"In addition to that 'slime', I also encountered an evil brown ooze monster. I beat her hard at that time, and she became more obedient."
Click!
Click! Click!
While speaking, Irena threw a fortune cookie between her two fingers into her mouth and chewed it hard, making a crunching sound.
"??"
"Brown ooze?"
Scratching her head, Mikoto's doubts became even stronger now.
"It's incredible..."
"How strong must it be to be able to hurt you into such a monster?"
"it's a pity!"
"If Heizi hadn't stopped me, I would have gone with you to see it."
This was both a slime and an ooze monster, so Mikoto was fascinated by what she heard and felt annoyed that she had not been able to follow him.
"!!"
"sister!"
"How could you say that?"
"Look, they just came back now. If Heizi hadn't stopped you, you would have been eliminated by now!"
Hearing what his elder sister said, Kuroko on the side certainly didn't obey. He came over and hugged Mikoto's arm and retorted plausibly.
"So what if we are eliminated?"
"Is it more important, friends or competition?"
Mikoto was a little dissatisfied and glared at Kuroko.
"Of course my sister's game is important!"
Kuroko said that she was not familiar with that Irena, and they might never have any contact with each other again, so in comparison, her elder sister must be more important.
"You guy!"
"Go away!"
"No! Heizi won't leave!"
"hateful!"
☇
"ah!!"
"Kuroko!"
"You are so bad!!"
"Woo..."
Then, when Hermione and Irena glared at each other hatefully and continued to eat their own food, Mikoto and Kuroko got entangled on the side, and even used electric shocks, causing Kuroko to exclaim. He couldn't help but rolled directly onto the carpet with Miqin in his arms, and then the two of them got entangled there.
"Are you guys okay?"
"correct!"
"Sister Hermione, we saw that you seemed to have lost the game. Did you fail to come back?"
At this time, after Misaka Mikoto and Shirai Kuroko rolled aside in a fuss, the two sisters Tohsaka Rin and Tohsaka Sakura came over and asked strangely.
Because they and Mikoto were a bit difficult to deal with, and their relationship had never been very good, and there were even occasional tit-for-tat situations, so they had not asked about Hermione's specific situation before, so it was not clear that Hermione had actually missed it. It was game time that led to elimination.
"Hi……"
"Isn't it because of some idiot?"
"otherwise!"
"I will definitely make it back in time!"
It was okay not to mention this, but as soon as she mentioned this, Hermione became angry and had to stop, and once again glared at a gray-haired guy not far away.
"That's right!"
"Is it all because some idiot used magic that he shouldn't have used, and then lost track of time?"
Irena seemed to have been paying attention to Hermione's conversation, so without raising her head, she responded directly and loudly.
"..."
"..."
Then, without any surprise, Hermione stared directly at Irena again, and Irena stared back. Neither of them spoke anymore. While glaring at each other, the aura around them was also very... It gets weird quickly.
"..."
At this time, Kuroko, who was still entangled with Mikoto just now, suddenly appeared next to a troubled little girl who was only thinking about eating. Then, she seemed to have heard something from there. After a while, she was teleported back to another dimension. Arriving at Mikoto's side.
"!?"
"Heizi, what is going on?"
Knowing that Kuroko must be asking about something, Mikoto asked in a cautious voice while staring at Hermione and Irena worriedly.
You know, before today, the relationship between Hermione and Irena had always been very good. They even ran to help as soon as they found out that the other party was in danger. But why now after returning, they have become Like this?
"elder sister!"
"I heard that the two of them seemed to have a fight after they were rescued."
Looking at the two cute little heads of Index and Tohsaka Sakura who were from the hostile camp, Kuroko did not hide anything and secretly whispered the reason she had just learned.
Anyway, that's what a bad little girl told her, and she believed it.
"Fight?"
"But why?"
Blinking, Mikoto was a little confused. She didn't know why Hermione, who was obviously going to save people, could fight with the rescued Irena.
When she thought about it, that kind of thing made no sense at all, and it seemed to be completely unreasonable logically.
"Why?"
"Of course it's for several large boxes of gold and silver treasures!"
Kuroko spoke jealously and seriously, as if she had seen those treasures with her own eyes.
"ah!"
"Treasure?"
Although Mikoto was very surprised, she still felt that things were not as outrageous as Kuroko said.
"snort!"
"The treasure is secondary, it's mainly a matter of principle."
At this time, I don’t know if Heizi spoke a little louder, or if Irena used some magic to eavesdrop?
Anyway, while Kuroko, Mikoto and others were making suspicious and random guesses, Irena couldn't help it anymore and spoke directly.
"Yes."
"Someone is unprincipled and ungrateful!"
"So we have to teach her a lesson?"
Almost as soon as Irena finished speaking, Hermione sarcastically retorted.
"snort!"
"That's better than someone trying to repay a favor!"
Irena retorted again.
"Who repaid the favor?"
"Didn't I just want to discuss it with you at that time?"
Hermione banged the table angrily and had the urge to continue fighting again.
"discuss?"
"If we want to discuss it, how about putting the box in your own pocket first?"
Irena put down the tableware in her hand with a look of disdain.
In her opinion, it was one of the reasons why she suddenly fell out because someone was unruly, unprincipled, and greedy about something that was agreed upon by both parties.
"You were pretending then too!"
"No less than mine!"
"That's right!"
"But I deserve those."
"!!"
"Your box is bigger!"
"Yeah?"
“But your box is heavier!!”
"..."
"..."
As they talked, the two stopped talking. They just stared at each other angrily, full of gunpowder, as if they had the urge to fight again at any time?
"Hello!"
"Annie, don't you care?"
"They are all your students, right?"
Finally, seeing that the two of them seemed to have an intensifying trend, Mikoto, who was a little scared, carefully moved closer to a certain troubled little girl and whispered advice.
"in spite of!"
(*•̀ᴗ•́*)و
"It's so fun to fight. It's rare to have a bruised nose and swollen face!"
-̗̀(๑ᵔ⌔ᵔ๑)
Annie began to gloat loudly, not caring about the two people who were facing each other tit for tat, nor the worries in Mikoto's heart.
"snort!"
"snort!!"
Maybe it was the words of a bad little girl teacher (professor) that had the opposite effect, maybe it was because the venue was not suitable, or maybe it was because a fight had already been fought and it was more important to eat now?
Ever since, after a short confrontation, Hermione and Irena seemed to have a telepathic understanding, and they both snorted and turned away.
Then, they began to eat their own food again.
Both of them were obviously starving. One of them had been starved for most of the day, while the other had vomited everything in his stomach. Therefore, eating is their top priority now, and as for everything else, You can take it easy for now.
"OK!"
"Didn't we say that after celebrating, we should first discuss those guys who made it to the top 16 and formulate corresponding countermeasures?"
After a while, after seeing Irena and Hermione finally calm down, Illya, a magical girl with beautiful long silver hair and red eyes, jumped onto a table and successfully attracted got everyone's attention.
"look!"
"This is the promotion list for the top 16, come and take a look!"
Then, Illya unceremoniously shook out a roll of parchment, which was obviously the promotion list decided by tonight's game.
Immediately afterwards, she didn't know what kind of magic she used, and shining magic names appeared suspended in the air. Above them, the names of 'Misaka Mikoto', 'Illya' and 'Tohsaka Rin' The name is clearly listed!
Then, Misaka Mikoto, who was sitting next to Annie, hurriedly came up and started discussing with those guys.
"??"
(°ー°〃)
"These guys..."
(^~^;)ゞ
Anne could tell that although those guys might still have some prejudices or misunderstandings between them, before they came back, these people seemed to have reached a certain consensus and were preparing to start the next round of competition. , let’s first study the promoted opponents together and formulate corresponding countermeasures?
"never mind!"
ε=(´ο`*)))Alas
"Ignore those idiots!"
(。◝~◜。)
Yes!
In Anne's opinion, those guys are just as stupid as Hermione and Irena!
After all, if you want to know the targeted response, or if you want to win the game, come directly to her, the all-powerful and most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most Wouldn’t it be enough to be the most, most, most, most powerful arcane mage? Isn’t it necessary to discuss such boring things?
We are all on our own. If there is a way to openly cheat without making people make irresponsible remarks, wouldn't she help?
"..."
( ̄~ ̄)Chew!
However, if they don't take the initiative to ask for something like that, she, Queen Anne, will definitely not speak easily. After all, there are still three promotions, so she is not in a hurry yet.
