"Yaro, you are too kind. Their fate has already been determined. You should not risk your bright future for those ants."

Kind?

Shouldn't kindness mean being helpful?

I was indifferent to their death in the front, but I took action in the back because I couldn't stand it any longer.

Can this also be called kindness?

Is my mother’s standard of kindness too low, or is this the world’s standard of kindness?

Yaro ignored his mother's comments about the others and nodded obediently: "Mom taught me that."

The black cat sat on the ground, its long tail swaying gently, turning its head, looking at Yaro curiously: "Do you like that commoner girl?"

"Aha?" Yaro looked at the black cat in surprise, "Teacher Zhenma, why do you have such a strange idea?"

"Then explain to me why you didn't take action before. When you saw the girl dead, your body temperature began to rise, and then you couldn't help but take action?"

It turned out that every move he made was watched by Teacher Zhenma.

Nicole also raised her head curiously: "Is this so? Yaro, are you willing to tell your mother the reason?"

Yaro, who had already examined his heart, shook his head with a wry smile, but it was difficult for him to tell the real reason, so he had to think for a moment and then said:

"Issa's death was indeed a tipping point."

"Maybe it's because of her weakness, her innocence, or maybe I really had expectations for her."

"First of all, I just wanted to score points and show my friendliness, so I took more care of them."

"But Isa was so unlucky that she actually got seasick. She even got seasick and vomited to the point of dehydration."

"So I paid a little more attention to her, and therefore had some unrealistic expectations. I hope that she can become an official wizard, so that my small investment can bear sweet fruits."

"But, as it says in the book "The Thoughts of Barnaby Hoole."

“The more you give to someone and the more you expect, the more reluctant you will be to give up.”

"Many times, even if everyone already knows that continuing to pay may not yield effective benefits, it is still difficult to give up decisively because of the previous investment."

Thinking is a common feature of human beings. Yarrow's past life had a psychological effect called 'sunk cost', which is very similar to this statement.

"Because of this, when I saw Isa die, the anger in my heart was hard to suppress."

Mother caressed the scars on Yaro's back and said with pity, "Are you still sad about their death?"

"No," Yaro smiled slightly, "No matter what the result is, I tried my best to do what I could, and that's enough."

"Is that so?"

After Nicole thought for a moment, she raised her head and smiled at the black cat: "Gemma, it seems that I asked you to do unnecessary things."

Extra things?

Yaro looked at the black cat in confusion.

"That would be troublesome. This thing itself has the effect of absorbing negative energy. It is easy to put it in, but it seems to be a bit troublesome to clean it up."

Following the black cat's line of sight, Yaro looked at the dark ball on the ground.

This thing...why does it feel so familiar?

"Teacher Zhenma, what are you talking about? The one on the ground can't be..."

"We got that wooden ball from the weird space." The black cat raised his head, his beard trembling slightly, and he showed an expression that was half-smiling.

"Mother, what on earth did you do? Can you please stop playing riddles with me?" Yaro looked back and forth between his mother and the black cat, and he had a guess, but he didn't dare to confirm it.

"Yes, I used this wooden ball to collect the souls of the dead students."

"Ah?" Yaro looked at the blackened wooden ball in surprise.

Nicole comforted: "Since you don't need it, Gemma and I will definitely find a way to help you clean up those souls."

"Don't!"

Yaro stopped him quickly and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

I thought that the incident was over, but I didn't expect that my mother and Teacher Zhenma would give me such a big problem again.

"Mother, what would happen if their souls were released?"

Nicole looked at the black ball and shook her head slightly, "Even the soul of a formal wizard will easily dissipate without a suitable container."

This is really a hot potato!

Yaro looked at the black ball with a complicated expression, "Then...this wooden ball is for you?"

The black cat said deliberately: "That's okay. I'll return this wooden ball to you after I clean it up."

Forehead!

Yaro looked at his mother, only to see her mother shaking her head apologetically: "I'm sorry, little Yaro, I don't have the time or energy to take care of these things."

Yaro couldn't help but said, "But it's not good for me to keep them with me. After all, they are all souls."

I am an ordinary person, why do I always have to embarrass myself with such things?

What's more, I don't know how to deal with it.

How to place these souls now?

How should we arrange the fate of these souls in the future?

Seeing Yaro's frown, Nicole couldn't bear to say: "Yaro, don't worry, I will suppress those souls first to ensure that they cannot come out to cause trouble."

"When you reach the level of a senior wizard apprentice, your mental power will be released, and you won't be afraid of these weak souls."

"However, you'd better break through as soon as possible, because this wooden ball is originally an item produced in a strange space. We don't know the specific function of this wooden ball. The souls have been accumulated in it for a long time, and we don't know what will happen."

misfortune? !

Yaro raised his eyebrows slightly and quickly refused: "Then I can't take it anymore. If it turns into some kind of monster, I won't be able to deal with it."

The black cat couldn't help but stand up, kicked the black ball, and scolded angrily: "Yaro, this is a thing produced in the lowest weird space. No matter how weird it is, how strong can it become? Don't be so brave. How about a little one!"

"You figured it out!"

"If you give us this wooden ball, then our solution is to empty these souls."

"If you don't want to, then you can keep it yourself. We will give you six years to find a solution. If you really can't think of it, then we will clean up your soul directly!"

Yaro looked at his silent mother and suddenly understood.

So, is this your way of motivating me to grow faster?

"Yaro, don't look at your mother."

"Think about it carefully. The little girl named Isa has double excellent qualifications and the most perfect extracted soul. She probably retains complete memories. When you become a senior wizard apprentice, you will be able to break through the mental barrier, that is, You can continue to have sex with her."

Ya Luo couldn't laugh or cry, who was in love with the little girl?

But facing this kind of thing, Yaro really couldn't think of a proper solution, so he could only reluctantly agree and wait until he enters the wizard college to find another solution.
