The dark night retreated quietly, the color of the sky gradually changed from dark blue to light blue, and the dim starlight contrasted with the fog on the campus.
The fog enveloped the entire Saint Helte, and the outlines of the walls and buildings were blurred, as if wrapped in a soft veil.
There is a thin sense of moisture in the silent air, and the fragrance after the rain permeates the trees and grass.
"What were you two talking about just now? It was mysterious." Rogers asked Alice beside him as he moved forward with his stick.
Just now in front of the cabin, Alina and Alice rushed him aside, and they didn't know what they were discussing.
"It's a secret." Alice held "The Basics of Magic" in her arms, and the naughty smile spread softly in her eyes, like ripples in the water.
Her steps as she walked beside Luo Gesi were unusually light and cheerful, and the tips of her hair and the hem of her uniform were dancing with her steps.
"Ah... okay." Luo Gesi sighed slightly and did not continue to delve deeper.
When Alina proposed that Alice be his assistant lecturer, he was extremely surprised, and he himself felt that this was not necessarily a good choice.
First, Alice's level of occultism is obviously not as advanced as Alina's, and she cannot take on the task of helping teach; second, Alice's identity is too dazzling, which can easily distract the students; third, he asked In addition to the reason for teaching, Alina came to be her assistant lecturer. She also wanted the other person to help her take care of the small disaster.
But when he thought about the hard work that Alina had gone through after she started to help him deduce the mystical language, he didn't say no and agreed.
Looking at Alice's cheerful footsteps, Rogers felt a little dazed for a moment. It seemed that he hadn't seen Alice's relaxed girlish posture for a long time.
I don’t know since when, when the other party appears in front of me, most of the time he looks like he is competing with Alina, and rarely looks as relaxed as he does now.
Thinking about this, Rogers became even more surprised when he remembered that the person who recommended Alice was Alina.
"Do you need me to contact and take care of the child named Viledya?" Alice looked at Luo Gesi and asked seriously.
"No, at least not now. We will see if there is a suitable opportunity later." Rogers shook his head slightly and refused.
As Alina said, blindly giving alms is likely to make people develop the habit of begging, and Alice's identity is too sensitive. If other students know that Alice intends to take care of Viledya, what will happen to Viledya? Saying so is not necessarily a good thing, it might actually cause her to get into more trouble.
"Well, is there anything else you need me to do?" Alice tilted her head slightly, her flaxen hair falling from her shoulders, and asked in a sincere tone.
"Well... let me think about it, it seems that there is nothing special that needs your help. I will trouble you when there is need." Rogers pondered for a moment and continued to respond with a slight shake of his head.
Alice's eyebrows slightly curved when she heard this, with a hint of helplessness in her expression. She lightly pursed her lips and said, "Okay."
"Enjoy the relaxation now, I'm afraid you will only get busier and busier in the future." Luo Gesi clearly caught the other party's disappointment and said with a chuckle.
Starting from the second grade, the difficulty and intensity of plot events will gradually increase. The current relaxed and wanton time is destined to become farther and farther away from Alice as a saint.
"Yes," Alice nodded slightly after listening to these teasing but slightly caring words, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth again.
When the two of them walked into the spiral tower and walked to the door of the first-year theory classroom, chatter, laughter and noises could be heard one after another, and the sound of tabletop slapping and books turning could also be heard from time to time.
There are both laughter and laughter, as well as chaotic disturbances. Various sounds are diffusely intertwined, forming a rather complex picture of noise.
"It was a lot more noisy than the last time I came to substitute. It should be because we got to know each other, but it was really noisy. In comparison, our class is a little more decent, although it is still noisy at times. Awesome." Luo Gesi couldn't help but sigh aloud as he listened to the chaotic noise.
"In the beginning, it was because everyone was wary of me, and then, it was because you, the big devil, sat in the corner and stared at everyone. Otherwise, you would be no different from them." Alice replied very strictly.
Rogers was quite amused by this explanation. He stopped chatting with Alice and walked into the classroom, followed closely by Alice.
When the two appeared on the podium, several students in the front row subconsciously looked at Alice, and then someone loudly exclaimed "Holy Lady", which instantly caused a burst of excitement.
Screams and shouts echoed in the air, the students were noisy, their eyes were filled with admiration, and excitement permeated every corner.
After Rogers saw this familiar scene, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and the classroom instantly became extremely quiet.
"The Holy Lady will serve as my teaching assistant in the next few classes. You will have many opportunities to see her. Please concentrate on class now."
His calm tone spread throughout the classroom, and when he saw everyone sitting upright, he released the silencing spell.
"Teacher Luo Gesi! Why don't you let the saint speak? Is it true that you have been pursuing the saint many years ago?! I heard yesterday that you sacrificed your life to save the saint during the exorcism night. The saint almost died! And you abused the second-year seniors! Are these all facts?!"
Little Sword Saint Luca raised his right hand and asked continuously with excitement on his face.
Growing up in a remote countryside, he often heard the legend of the Saint, but he only heard about the reputation of Logos by chance.
However, after coming to Saint Helte, the frequency of Luo Gesi's name appeared much more than that of the Saint.
Then not only the young sword master, but also many students started to ask their own questions, such as what is the current relationship between Logos and Alice, how did Logos pursue Alice, and the details of Logos's sacrifice to save Alice... …
"It seems that your image in their eyes is much better than that of our students in the same grade." Alice looked sideways at Rogers and said with a smile.
"When I taught last time, not many people dared to talk to me. Maybe it's because of your presence this time that they became so excited."
Logos replied softly. He found that whether it was the little priest Miyala who had been targeting him with her eyes last time, or the little princess Ilyas, their eyes were on Alice at the moment.
In the entire classroom, it seemed that only Viledya, who was sitting in the corner, could secretly observe him under the cover of her messy red hair.
"Those who continue to make noises regardless of discipline will have their credits deducted."
After he swept through everyone, the classroom quickly became quiet when the warning came.
Then he began his daily teaching on the podium, his voice did not have too many fluctuations or emphasis, his tone was steady, and his words were concise and clear.
There are no exaggerated decorations or gorgeous furnishings. He teaches in simple and concise language, combined with various stories and cases.
Like the previous class, the news that the enlightenment special code was slowly evolving came again, which made him even more attentive.
Alice sat behind the lectern, resting her chin on her hands, staring intently at Rogers's focused expression during the lecture.
Every movement caused ripples in her heart, and her thoughts spread like a calm lake. Memories of the past and thoughts about the present came together.
As the sun rises higher, the fog slowly dissipates, revealing a clear sky.
During the lunch break, Rogers walked around Alice and took a seat by the window behind the desk.
He looked at the sun hanging high in the sky through the window lattice. There was no cloud in the boundless blue sky. Time seemed to have entered a state of rest, and every small sound was amplified.
The voices of many students trying to talk to Alice were like a chaotic symphony, reverberating back and forth in Luo Gesi's ears.
Alice seemed to enjoy the conversation with her fellow juniors, especially when answering questions related to her and Rogers. The smile on her face was like a trickling stream of water, showing no sign of irritation or exhaustion.
Whenever Alice said that Logos' character and behavior were completely different from those in the rumors, it would arouse a burst of exclamation, and then the students would either praise Logos or express their disgust towards the person who spread the rumors.
The Saint, who had already been promoted to Silver, didn't need to care about a lunch, but Rogers still gave Alice an apple while he was slowly nibbling on it.
His eyes glanced at Weilediya, who was still huddled in the corner. If the other party didn't take the initiative to look for her, he had no intention of rashly approaching her again.
After all, there is a more important communication meeting in front of him that requires energy to prepare, and it is difficult for him to grasp what too much contact will bring to the other party.
There were no problems in the afternoon classes until the sun set in the west, the color of the sky gradually transitioned from bright to dark, and the breeze blew through the campus, bringing a bit of coolness.
Rogers and Alice walked back to the dormitory area of Hilmi House together and waved goodbye to each other.
When Rogers returned to his cabin, Alina was sitting on the desk in the living room, constantly doing language deduction tasks.
"come over."
After she saw Rogers returning to the house, she lightly hooked her fingers. When he came to her, the girl's nose twitched slightly, and then a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
Luo Gesi looked at the drafts covering most of the desk, thanked Alina for his troubles as usual, and then sat at the table to make various plans for the ritual.
Not long after, Lufia returned to the wooden house with relaxed steps. She was very happy all day today because there was no Alina to supervise her serious study, and there were no endless requests for test papers during recess. Do.
She knew that Alina had no time to check her study progress after she was busy, so she fully enjoyed the freedom she had had for a long time.
However, after seeing the look in Alina's eyes, she immediately put on a flattering look, hurriedly came to the desk, sat next to Alina, opened the book, and looked like she was previewing.
Time passes silently, and the days drift away like smoke.
In the next few days, the notice that the application for establishing the "Rutgers Club" was approved was sent out, but the student union did not provide a venue for club activities.
After thinking about it for a while, Rogers found Professor Idrul and built a three-story wooden house in a vacant space in the dormitory area. The location was just at the edge of the intersection of the Saint's Cathedral and the Demon King's Cathedral, close to Derek's. The dormitory is very close.
The first floor is used for public business, that is, deposit and withdrawal projects, and the second floor is for private lending and dispute resolution. As for what the third floor will be used for, he has not yet decided.
Of course, Derrick was the first to join the "Logos Club", followed by Elena, Lufia and Alice. After Eunice heard the news about Alice joining the club, she also followed closely.
Because the exchange meeting is just around the corner, Logos currently does not plan to recruit more members. However, when many students in the same grade heard about the main business of the "Logos Club", many students came to deposit their credits and At the same time, he kept praising Luo Gesi's wisdom.
…
Early in the morning, in the bedroom on the second floor of the Logos cabin.
"Alina won't be busy anymore. You have to make up for the missing test papers in the past few days~"
After Rogers changed his clothes, he bent down and whispered softly into Lufia's ear, who was lying on the bed.
"Father! Save me!!!" Lufia opened her eyes suddenly and sat up instantly. She stared blankly at the void in front of her. Her breathing was rapid and irregular. Her fingers gripped the sheets tightly, expressing her inner feelings. of fear and uneasiness.
When Luo Gesi saw that the other party looked a little dazed now, but he did wake up, he turned around and packed up his things.
Although Alina's deduction of the mystical language was barely successful, there was still some finishing work to be done.
However, Logos is not in a hurry about this. During the exchange meeting, there are still a few days for Alina to catch up on the work, and the current level of completion is actually enough to carry out the ritual.
He summoned the magic book and stuffed all the luggage into it. Then Alina, who had packed her luggage, also threw various packages into the magic book.
Finally, after Lufia finished cleaning up, the three of them walked out of the dormitory together and came to a milky-white teleportation tower standing on the northernmost side of Saint Helte.
"Time and space, creation and destiny; mystery, philosophy and art; body, spirit and soul; the threefold of the present world, the threefold of cognition and expression, the threefold of oneself, combined into the threefold of the three, should be enough..."
The teleportation circle under Luo Gesi's feet showed several magic lines intertwining back and forth, outlining nested geometric figures. When the runes surged with magic glow, he was still deducing the ritual in his mind. .
