"What are you doing?" The two of them reached an inconspicuous corner and could no longer be seen from the banquet hall. Harold was still squirming.
"..." Wayne was speechless. The chairman didn't expect him to say something nice to coax him. It was a beautiful thought.
Wayne let go of the arm that had been dragging him all the way, and said very seriously: "Chairman! Do you know the true purpose of this exchange group's trip?!" Being overwhelmed by his sudden momentum, Harold couldn't react for a moment. What does it mean to come to him?
"Do you think the people of the Holy See would let a light magician wander outside?" Wayne lowered his voice.
Before Tasia, there had never been a light magician who did not join the Holy See. He did not forget that when he met the messenger Homa that day, he almost took it for granted that Tasia would be on the communication list sent by Qingxi Academy to the Holy See, and also deliberately mentioned that Tasia was called
"The rising star of the Holy See". When he reminded him, Harold's expression became serious.
"You mean, they want to take Tasia away in advance?" If Bishop Willard hadn't been involved before, the Holy See would not have agreed to a light magician staying at Qingxi Academy.
But Harold thought that since the terms had been negotiated, there should be no changes in the next four years.
Wayne shook his head,
"It definitely depends on Tasia's wishes." At this point, he patted Harold on the shoulder like a big leader.
"Xiao Ha, whether you can keep Tasia's heart in Qingxi Academy depends on whether you have done enough work."
"Hey kid!" Harold was so angry at his arrogance that he blew his beard and stared. Ignoring his reaction, Wayne walked away calmly without looking back.
…
"Tasia!" Wayne handed her the results of the last simulation test and quietly inquired about her recent movements.
"I heard that the exchange group sent by the Holy See is currently staying at the Royal Cathedral. You have a good relationship with Bishop Willard. Have you ever gone to meet with anyone from the Holy See?" When asking this question, Wayne asked carefully. Watch Tasia's reaction.
She was stunned for a moment, looking slightly confused, as if she didn't quite understand why he would ask such a question.
But she obviously didn't think too much and shook her head.
"I heard about this from Chris, but Bishop Willard didn't say much to me, nor did he let me meet with anyone from the Holy See." After hearing this, Wayne looked around and saw the classroom There were only a few people in the room, but no one paid attention to him. He pulled the empty seat next to him and leaned against Tasia's table. He lowered his voice and asked cautiously like a thief: "If, I mean if, People from the Holy See invite you to come for exchange and study, will you go?" No matter what the Holy See, the academy, or the royal family thinks, or what kind of calculations and transactions there are in the secret, the most critical link is always Tasia herself.
If it were said that he would still hold him in the past
"The protagonist must be the son of destiny who can do anything he wants to do." Now he has realized the trap hidden under directional thinking.
As long as you are willing to take action, your destiny is not static. For a long time, there have been countless cases of changes due to one's own intervention. Under these irrefutable facts, the so-called
The "protagonist halo" may be more of a psychological comfort to me. Believing that something will definitely succeed always makes people feel more confident when taking action, right?
Tasia was silent for a while, and then said: "Actually, Bishop Willard invited me a long time ago."
"Huh?" Only this word could express Wayne's surprise at this moment. Seeing Wayne looking at her blankly, she put the test results and the notes spread out on the table back into her backpack with a little helplessness.
When Tasia hung her backpack back on the side of the seat, there was already a box of well-packaged cookies on the table.
"Want to eat together? I just made it this morning."
"Uh, thank you." Wayne happened to be a little hungry, so he didn't pretend to refuse. After getting to know Tasia, she would often bring some snacks from home to share with her friends, but Wayne rarely seemed to have the opportunity to be alone with Tasia.
Hmm...Aikos' status as a cheap teacher doesn't count. Perhaps it was because the intake of sugar made people relax, Tasia took a bite of the biscuit and suddenly let out a long sigh as if she was frustrated.
Wayne's movements paused slightly in the middle of chewing, and he realized that she might just want to find someone to talk to about her troubles.
"I know that the Holy See may have high hopes for me." Tasia gradually started talking.
"They all say...my light magic is proof that I am favored by the gods." Indeed, for this world, existences like Tasia can undoubtedly be regarded as...
"God favors", even Wayne had never doubted it before.
"It's just that I've always been confused as to why God would favor people like me." Hey, are you in Versailles?
He suddenly felt that he had eaten too many biscuits and was a little choked.
"If it is for a noble mission, as Bishop Willard said...then if God is not willing to give others the same opportunity, how can he know that others cannot accomplish the same mission better?" She lowered her head. Staring at the empty palm, Wayne had no way of detecting the emotions hidden in her eyes.
"Compared to those noble and great causes, maybe what I want to grasp is just a small piece of satisfaction from beginning to end."
"So, when Bishop Willard invited me on behalf of the Holy See, instead of being excited or honored, the first thing I felt was fear and uneasiness." She laughed at herself softly,
"It's not in line with what [Tasia] should be like, isn't it." Wayne finally found an opportunity to interject.
"There is nothing that should or should not be done," he said.
"No matter what choice you make, no matter whether the result is praised or criticized by others, as long as it is out of your own will, that is your truest appearance." Maybe I feel that my tone of saying this is too strong. , Wayne coughed twice and looked away.
"In short, as long as you follow your heart, Chris and I will support you." The potted plant placed at the door of the classroom seemed to have not been watered for a long time, and the leaves were wilted.
"So you refused?" he asked again.
"Although I thought so at the time, Bishop Willard told me at that time that I might as well wait until I graduate before thinking about it." Tasia put her hand on her chin and said,
"So, I think Sir Willard may not want me to go to the Holy See too early." Wayne pondered for a moment.
It is not impossible that the reason why Tasia did not immediately join the Holy See was that Willard handled Tasia's recommendation for admission, which gave Qingxi Academy an advantage.
If it weren't for his decision at that time, Tasia would have been taken away by the Holy See.
