"——But, this is in the academy! What kind of accident can happen?" Molly still couldn't figure it out.
Qingxi Academy has many high-ranking students, so the level of security is naturally beyond what ordinary people can imagine. What's more, magicians can be found everywhere here. To cause trouble here is almost the same as rushing into the palace to assassinate the king.
Besides, even if something unexpected happened to Wayne after taking 10,000 steps back, wouldn't Chris and her three-legged cat's magic be enough to get in and deliver food?
Molly looked at her with pity in her eyes, as if she were looking at the silly son of a landowner.
Chris held it in for a long time but couldn't think of a suitable reason: "Oh, don't ask so many questions. In short, just follow my instructions!"
After forcibly suppressing the different opinions, Chris called out in a hurry: "Hurry up and follow them, they are going far away!"
So the two of them continued to follow sneakily, keeping a close distance from Wayne and Tasia who were walking in front.
The weather has been very good in the past few days, and the afternoon sun is shining warmly on my body.
Wayne walked forward with his eyes closed, but he seemed to see everything around him, and he accurately stepped over the staggered stairs and potholes on the road.
Tasia's gentle breathing could be heard in her ears, and as she explored the environment, her every move became particularly clear.
Not long after, Wayne's expression suddenly paused and became a little strange.
"Huh? What's wrong?" Tasia turned her head and asked him.
"……nothing."
Wayne felt that his life was simply too difficult.
He pretended not to notice Chris's little movement and still led the way to Professor Conley's laboratory.
Probably because she was already some distance away from the teaching building, Tasia relaxed a little and finally started chatting with him.
"Classmate Wayne, have you dreamed of anything strange recently?"
"Dream?"
——Your Excellency Ecos, I like you!
He shook his head violently to get rid of this psychological shadow.
"Well, sometimes I have strange dreams, but I quickly forget them after I wake up." He replied naturally, "What's wrong?"
"No...it's nothing, just asking." Tasia's acting skills were full of flaws.
"If you dream of anything unusual, please tell me." She said solemnly, "My light magic should be able to soothe your emotions and help your body maintain its best condition."
Wayne hesitated after hearing this.
"Can you take the time to try it for me next time?"
He thought that maybe this was why Tasia kept looking for excuses to be alone with him.
Theoretically speaking, the two magic powers of light and dark have extraordinary abilities to sense each other. If there are indeed seeds of dark magic hidden in her body, then Tasia may indeed detect abnormalities.
"Huh?" Tasia was surprised for a moment, then overjoyed.
"Why don't we find a place to relax now?"
"Now?" Wayne was shocked. Are you so impatient?
"Yes, some phenomena are caused by the body being overwhelmed and cannot be ignored casually." Tasia said seriously, "If I can check out your problem as soon as possible, maybe I can also treat it as soon as possible." Find a solution."
You are so reliable, Tasia-san...
"Forget it, let's do it next time." Wayne reluctantly refused. "Didn't you say you wanted to give Mr. Conley a dessert? It's better not to waste too much time."
With that said, he took the lead and left.
"Oh yes……"
Tasia seemed to suddenly remember that there was such a thing, so she could only follow him with a stern expression holding the snack box in her hand.
The two of them arrived in the research room in silence.
At this time, Conley was already eating the box lunch that Olive had packed.
When he looked up and saw Tasia arriving, he immediately beamed with joy.
"I didn't expect it to be cashed out so quickly! I thought you were just joking like my heartless apprentice." Conley took the delicately packaged gift box with great satisfaction.
Wayne sat on the edge of the workbench with a speechless expression: "Can you please tell me, is there anything else that I promised but failed to do?"
Conley pretended not to hear and ignored him.
"That's great~ Girls are really more attentive by nature... In all these years, this guy Wayne has never made a snack for me!"
Hey, what do you mean?
Wayne stared back at him unhappily, and Tasia was a little embarrassed to be between the two of them.
"No, Wayne has always respected you." Tasia coaxed like a child.
After being quiet for a while, Conley finally couldn't help but asked again: "Have you really become a disciple? Are you no longer considering switching to my disciple?"
He was really unwilling to let such a good prospect go in vain, and even regretted why he had to observe it for so long in the first place.
Damn it, who got there first!
Conley originally thought that magicians at the same level as himself would not be able to let go of their dignity and accept civilian students.
Tasia shook her head firmly: "I'm sorry...my teacher is very good to me, and I will not leave him."
Once again, Professor Conley watched as the evil-minded Professor Conley was cruelly rejected by Tasia again. Wayne was in an extremely happy mood at the moment.
"Hey, teacher, please don't embarrass this little girl." Wayne began to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf.
"There is a strong relationship between master and disciple. Why do you have to try to pry someone else's corner? You don't want me to kick you one day when I meet a better teacher than you, do you?"
Conley was so angry at his words that his beard stood up: "I'm just asking what's wrong! What if she changes her mind?"
"I won't change my mind." Tasia asserted without leaving any room.
"Even if he is not the strongest one, not the gentlest one, or even the one who treats me best in the future... As long as he doesn't say he doesn't want me anymore, I will never abandon him no matter what."
She seemed to be telling this to outsiders as well as to herself.
Hearing her unqualified words, Conley was silent for a moment.
"Oh, you just have to decide for yourself." He was a little uninterested. "Let's go, let's all go back, don't stand in front of me and be an eyesore."
Tasia was a little overwhelmed by being kicked out by Conley along with Wayne.
"Is Professor Conley angry?" she asked slightly uneasily.
"Maybe a little bit...but don't worry about him. For a confident person, it will take some time for him to accept his failure." Wayne said with a smile.
"You don't have to feel sorry for rejecting others. You have no obligation to agree to others' unreasonable requests."
"Believe in your own choice and work hard to do your best. That's enough."
