Rean rushed back to the camp early the next morning.
The main thing is to consider the time it takes Valima to recover her spiritual power.
The hardest part of this operation is it. First kill the God Machine, then hunt down the Hunter King, and then you have to use the "Elf Way" to sneak into Hamel.
After finally resting for a few hours to recover, I had to sneak out under the cover of night and make a big circle before finally flying back to the camp.
Of course, this was done to avoid being noticed by others, so that people from the empire, especially the "Iron-Blooded Prime Minister" faction, would know that Rean was doing something secretly.
For this reason, lying to Claire was inevitable.
The reason for missing one night is simple.
The King of Hunters was Fei's adoptive father and the leader of the "West Wind Brigade". He should not be let go for both public and private reasons, so he went after him.
This is also consistent with Agathe's confession.
After chasing for a while, I couldn't catch up, so I had to land in the Ismia Forest.
Everything up to this point is true, but the rest is just made up.
Valima consumed too much spiritual power in battle and needed time to recover.
Fei was in a very low mood, and Rean and his companions were worried, so they simply camped in the forest. While driving Fei, they listened to her talk about the Hunter King and thought about why he was "resurrected."
Since the landing place was an uninhabited area and there was no guidance network coverage, there was no way to contact the Derflinger.
After everyone was almost rested and Fei's mental state improved, he left in Valima.
After receiving the signal, the first thing was to contact the Derflinger and find out that the train had returned to the camp.
The words were reasonable and reasonable, and Li En felt that there should be no problem.
This is indeed the case. Although Michael said a few words, no one suspected that there was something wrong with Rean.
Especially Claire and Tova, their expressions of concern were palpable when they looked at Rean's body and the traces of a fierce battle.
He didn't really care about Li En's whereabouts.
First, he is appointed by the government and has full authority to handle relevant matters. He can do whatever he deems necessary and does not need to ask for instructions and reports on everything.
Secondly, this is not the first day they have met Rean, and they have always trusted Rean.
They believed that Li En would definitely come back, so they delayed the internship that was supposed to end yesterday for one more night.
This trust moved Li En deeply, and at the same time he felt ashamed.
Although Claire has a position issue, and Tova is afraid that she will be exposed in front of George because the news of someone's "resurrection" has not yet been exposed, Rean's behavior is a trampling and betrayal of the two people's feelings.
Although this is different from "I don't want you to feel it, I want me to feel it", and Rean doesn't think he did anything wrong, but the harm is still harm after all.
When he can tell, he will confess to them and everyone who was hurt by this, and then apologize, and he will accept the ending no matter what.
Because that's who he values, and they value him.
Afterwards, Michael began to arrange the dismantling of the camp and the return trip.
Li En went to take a shower, changed a set of clothes, and then went to see his students.
The students were all in good spirits. When Li En found them, they were chatting with students from other classes about their "harvest" yesterday afternoon.
Claire fulfilled her promise and suggested stopping at Palm after evacuating Hamel to give the students some free time.
Although it was a little unpleasant to bring up old things again, Mihail still agreed because the students had worked very hard for two days and had experienced something like that again last night. It was time to relax.
Seeing Li En coming back, everyone immediately gathered around.
Some asked about the specific mission process, while others were concerned about why Rean called Valimar away.
There were so many chatter that Li En didn't even know how to answer.
In the end, it was Altina who helped Rean out by saying that instructor Rean's mission was confidential and could not be disclosed casually.
But then, she grabbed Li En's clothes. Although she didn't say anything, her meaning was obvious.
I am entitled to know the secrets.
The stubborn look gave Li En both a headache and relief.
Considering that there wasn't much that needed to be concealed in this matter, and since he didn't take them with him before, he was somewhat emotional, Rean didn't refuse and promised that he would take time to talk to them later.
As for now, you all go to help me break camp. Didn't you hear Michael calling for assembly?
After the three members of the new Class VII left, two more people approached Rean.
One of them sarcastically said, as if looking for trouble: "I saw the way you looked when you came back. It was so ugly. Is that 'Society' really that powerful, or is it that the 'Grey Knight' doesn't live up to its name?"
The other one teased in an ambiguous tone: "Ah la la, Instructor Li En actually stayed up all night. If this news gets out, it will definitely break the hearts of many girls."
Rean was neither angry because of the sarcasm nor panicked because of the ridicule. He smiled the whole time.
He expected that the two of them would be unable to restrain themselves.
Before starting over, they were the ones who pushed from behind and allowed the three new Class VII students to sneak out to find Rean who was fighting against the Association.
Rean also knew their identity, background, character and abilities clearly. Sarcasm and ridicule were just appearances, the real purpose was to test Rean himself.
It smells a little like gunpowder.
Because Rean didn't give them any chance this time, the new Class VII's mood was more stable and difficult to instigate, and Rean didn't show his whereabouts, making it more difficult to track.
Being powerless always makes people feel frustrated, and Rean has experienced this particularly deeply.
He has been working hard in order to no longer encounter the situation of being powerless, whether it is before or after the comeback.
Mihail was as efficient as ever. After experiencing this exercise, the students gradually became like soldiers.
Not long after, all the equipment and materials in the camp were loaded onto the truck, and the exclusive silver train slowly started to leave the suburban camp where I had lived for two days and two nights, leaving the state of Sasarante and returning to the suburbs of the imperial capital. The small town of Livers.
This also means that the teachers and students of the second branch will return to calm daily life from an abnormal state and continue to study and live day after day.
Rean is no exception, but he cannot truly return to peace like other teachers and students.
April is just the starting point, not even a prelude. The following May will be more spectacular than April, and the characters and events on the stage will become more and more important.
More importantly, the second gift from the mysterious being who gave him a chance to come back was in Crossbell.
The first gift was already so heavy, and the second gift would be so extraordinary. Rean was looking forward to it very much.
Perhaps the opportunity to reverse the future lies in this second gift. In order to ensure that he gets the gift, Rean must plan in advance and consider all aspects.
