After turning around, Liao Yu had already put on another expression.
He felt a little strange, adjusted his glasses frame and said, "Classmate, are you..."
"I...my name is Wei Erxi, and I was your substitute student last period!"
After the elf introduced himself quickly, he suddenly didn't know what to say.
She just wanted to stop Professor Liao Yu.
As a result, when he finally arrived in front of Liao Yu, he hesitated.
You can't just come up and ask humans how you know so many high-level spells, right?
Seeing Wei Erxi's embarrassment and being unable to say anything after holding it in for a long time, Liao Yu shook his head in his heart. It seemed that the elf princess was quite different from what he had imagined, so she didn't look very smart.
In order to continue, Liao Yu took the initiative to speak.
"So classmate, are you here to ask about my courses? Sorry, I am a temporary professor at the college and do not offer personal courses."
"No, no, no, no, Professor Liao Yu, I am... yes, I have some knowledge points that you taught in class, but I still don't quite understand them. Can... could you please spare some time and give me some more guidance?"
Wilsey calmed down her nervousness and found a suitable reason to go down.
As a result, Liao Yu's last sentence almost made the elf panic.
"Of course, but..."
Liao Yu pretended to look at his watch.
"If I remember correctly, it should be class time now, you..."
"Ah! I...I don't have class next period, it's okay! Professor, please don't worry, I, I definitely didn't skip class!" Wilsey waved her hands repeatedly.
Liao Yu: "..."
OK.
Looking at Wilsy with her eyes wandering wildly and her face slightly red, as if she was telling lies for the first time, Liao Yu couldn't help but wonder, is this really the elf princess? Can she really be so pure? ?
"Okay, in that case...it happens that I don't have much work to do next, so come with me and let's find a separate room."
"Uh-huh."
Wei Erxi nodded, and when she heard that Liao Yu was going to take her into the house alone, not only was she not wary or nervous, but she was secretly happy.
Very good!
She just happened to be free when the professor was free!
Although Elf didn't say this inner activity, Liao Yu glanced at it from the corner of his eye and it was basically written on Elf's face.
This made Liao Yu even have the urge to kidnap this silly elf to the demon clan's base camp.
However, just in case, for the sake of safety, I still respect the noble status of the elf princess, just in case there is some back-up plan that I don't know about.
Liao Yu still followed the plan step by step.
Soon, led by Liao Yu, they arrived at a quiet hut in a remote location of the college.
Next door to the house is the large green circle of the college.
Looking out of the window, you can see the green shade of the trees. After entering the house, Liao Yu opened the window, and the breeze in the forest blew through the house, carrying the fragrance of flowers and plants.
Wilxi, who followed Liao Yu into the house, couldn't help but take a deep breath. This place was full of what she liked, the earthy fragrance of nature, refreshing and sweet.
"I'm sorry, because I'm not a regular professor in the college. I can't be assigned to a spacious office in the teaching building. I can only live in such a remote little corner. I hope you don't mind."
Upon hearing Liao Yu's explanation here, Wei Erxi immediately shook her head like a rattle.
"How come, professor, I...I like it very much here! It feels very comfortable. I think this place is much better than human...ahem! It's much better than those rooms in the teaching building!"
Wilsie liked it here so much that she almost spilled the beans.
This is not meant to flatter Liao Yu, it is entirely true.
Of course, elves prefer Liao Yu's current situation, which is a quiet hut close to the forest and nature.
not to mention...
While Liao Yu was pouring tea, Wei Erxi looked around the room, and her eyes were immediately drawn to the desk in the room.
I saw a ceramic vase placed there, with more than three or four graceful lilies inserted in it. The plants were upright, with leaves like green bamboo. The blooming flowers were white and flawless, elegant and tranquil, as if just seeing them could make you feel... Give birth to all kinds of purity and beauty.
this...
This is her favorite flower!
Now that the lily is in full bloom, Wilsey can imagine that it must be its owner who takes great care of it and waters it every day.
The tenderness and meticulousness of the owner can be seen from the flowers.
Wilsey didn't expect that before she got to know this young human professor in depth, she would already be filled with surprises, as if...
There is a sense of compatibility!
This is some kind of simple house in a corner.
This is simply her favorite room since arriving at the Human Academy!
If there is any indication now, the top of the head of this elf princess must be showing a constant increase in her favorability towards Liao Yu.
oh.
Liao Yu is real.
[Current favorability of Werxi: 32% 39%]
Liao Yu, who was making tea for Wei Erxi, saw his favorability level skyrocketed by 7% when he saw this. He couldn't help but raised the corners of his mouth again.
Fit?
How could it not fit in?
This is the room that Liao Yu carefully prepared based on Velxi's preferences in the card. It seems that his work was not in vain, and the effect is indeed remarkable.
The first impression I made on Wilsey’s design. It was almost a complete success.
But can't relax.
40% favorability should be a hurdle, it is the limit for "strangers". If you want to break through and take the relationship to a further level, you have to rely on the following flirtation...teaching!
"Miss Wilsey has been kept waiting for a long time. There is nothing good to do. All I can do is make some simple tea."
The same as the regular process of entertaining guests.
As the host, Liao Yu politely handed the tea to Wei Erxi.
The next Elf Princess thanked her, stood up and took it, and took a big sip in front of Liao Yu, as if to show that she didn't mind at all and was very satisfied with the tea.
Liao Yu: "..."
Are you really not afraid of something in the tea?
Liao Yu felt that if he were a young professor in some TV series, this elf female college student in front of him, who was as pure as a blank piece of paper, would have been "whitened" countless times.
never mind.
Liao Yu suddenly felt used to it.
After letting Wei Erxi sit down, Liao Yu at the desk smiled and said:
"So Miss Wilsey, I guess you want to ask about those high-level spells of the fifth, sixth and seventh levels, right?"
"Yes Professor, I'm, I'm interested!"
"Okay, before that, can I ask Miss Wilsey a question?"
"Professor, please tell me!"
Liao Yu leaned against the desk, took a sip of tea, and looked at the slowly rising white air in the tea cup, as if his eyes were somewhere far away, and his eyes were full of memories.
"Miss Wellsey thinks these "legendary" spells are really... legends?"
The elf took Liao Yu's question very seriously.
In class, although the human classmates were all very interested in the professor's advanced spells, Wilsey could clearly see that they all listened to them as fantasy stories, just like listening to books and novels, so they were so interested in them. .
As for saying it's not a legend, it's true...
There should be no other students except her.
And Wei Erxi looked at Professor Liao Yu's appearance now...
At this moment, the bright sunshine at noon was shining on the face of this young human being. Although the professor was still gentle and kind, deep in the brows, the eyes were inadvertently lowered, and the loneliness flashed from time to time in the depths of his eyes, which made Velxi I read a...
The feeling of loneliness.
It felt as if the professor was out of tune with the times and the crowd, and could not be understood by most of his peers, so he could only hide everything deep in his heart.
Combined with the question Liao Yu asked her just now.
Could it be that...
Wei Erxi naturally made a bold guess in her heart.
The elf princess hesitated for a moment, and then she clenched her palms slightly. Maybe it was because Liao Yu had left such a good impression on her, or maybe it was because Liao Yu's "loneliness" resonated with her. Velxi decided , take a risk.
"No, Professor, I have always believed that these high-level spells... are not legends, they are real."
After finishing speaking, Wilsey felt that it was not enough, so she added:
"Both these techniques and the ancestors who have used and invented these great techniques are definitely not legends. They are facts and have left traces in this world!"
Liao Yu looked at Wei Erxi's serious and sincere face.
He chuckled lightly and shook his head with emotion.
"Thank you, Miss Wilsey. You are the first supporter I have met who is willing to believe in legends and believe in myths. Thank you." Liao Yu said thank you twice in a row.
But Wilsey's focus is on...
ah! ?
Am...am I the first?
After being thanked tenderly by Liao Yu, and looking at the clear eyes of the young human now, even Wilsey herself didn't know why, but suddenly there were some different feelings in her heart, and she felt her heart beat a little faster.
Why?
Of course Liao Yu knew why.
Scumbag... Step 1 for your partner - tell her that she is special.
She is "first" in her heart.
Everyone likes to be different.
Everyone likes to be "on top."
For those girls who already have low self-esteem, low self-confidence, and already have pressure, the effect is even more significant.
It is even said that in order to maintain such a "special feeling" and continue to be the "number one" in your heart, she will unknowingly take the initiative to cater to you and do more.
The second step in making friends - deepen this special feeling and establish a unique bond between two people.
And the best thing to do is to share a "secret" with her.
It doesn’t have to be a real secret.
Just let her think of it as a "secret".
Just like...
"I'm not afraid of your jokes... Miss Wilsey, would you like to hear one more story from me?"
"Yes! Professor, I am willing!"
"Thanks."
Liao Yu nodded, looked at the ceiling, and murmured with a look of reminiscence:
"Once upon a time, there was a very lucky little boy. He was born into a happy lord's family. He lived a life without worries about food and clothing. He had parents who loved him extremely. He even made a bet with the earl's daughter through his father's relationship. Having a baby kiss is an extremely enviable life."
"But...fate seemed to be playing a joke on him. That day, a group of powerful bandits attacked the territory. The boy's parents tried their best, and with a group of loyal guards risking their lives, the boy was freed. The boy ran away, and the territory behind him burst into flames. The little boy could only run desperately, trying to find the count and ask for help for his parents and territory."
"However, when the exhausted little boy finally arrived at the Earl's mansion a few days later, what he received was the sad news that the territory had been destroyed and both his parents were dead. Although the Earl sent troops to annihilate the bandits, , but what’s the use, the little boy has lost everything, even his previous engagement was torn up by the count’s daughter in front of him, and he left proudly.”
The story told by Liao Yu is simple and not complicated.
But Wei Erxi listened very carefully. From the nervous expression on her face following Liao Yu's story line, it seemed as if she was really involved in it and took on the role of the little boy with a tragic life experience.
really.
Because it looks like, really looks like.
As an elf princess, she had no worries about food and clothing, strong parents and a supportive tribe. However, all of this was turned into a bubble with the arrival of the demons and this group of "robbers".
Even the earls and lords in the story, Velsey, can automatically bring in humans and elves. Didn’t the great guardian among humans once promise all kinds of things to them elves?
But what about in the end?
Humans defeated the demons, just like the count sent an army to exterminate the bandits.
But afterwards, the count's daughter turned her back and refused to admit her fault. She just saw that the little boy had lost everything and had nothing. And the humans at that time... weren't they the same?
The Great Guardian once said that even if he died in the war, his disciple, the Son of Destiny, would help the elves revive and rebuild their homeland after victory.
But they waited and waited. After the victory, the son of destiny seemed to have no news and disappeared.
And the pride of their elven clan did not allow them to take the initiative to ask for alms from humans. They could only watch the clan decline day by day, until today.
"And after that?"
"Professor Liao Yu, what happened to the little boy after that?" Wei Erxi couldn't hold back and asked proactively.
She wasn't curious about the story.
It's more like a situation where because of similar experiences, she is very confused and doesn't know where the future will be. That's why Wilsey is so eager to know what choices the little boy who is similar to her in the story made.
Longing... to hear how the little boy turned over.
But Liao Yu disappointed her.
Well, temporarily.
Liao Yu: "The lost little boy finally reached a cliff and jumped down."
"ah!?"
"How could it be... why could it be..." Wilsy's heart was twitching.
In an instant, frustration and depression were written on the elf's face.
Wilsey lowered her head.
turn out to be...
is that so...
Yes, losing everything and getting no help, she and their elves may end up on the same path as the little boy...
The end of the third step - creating ups and downs of emotions.
Seeing Wei Erxi clutching the hem of her skirt, her eyes dim and downcast, Liao Yu smiled slightly, suddenly changed the subject, and continued:
"However, fate once again played a joke on the little boy. Not only did the little boy who fell into the cliff not die, he accidentally entered a sealed ancient barrier, and there, deep in the barrier under the cliff, The little boy received a ball of light that changed his life."
"In the light ball, the little boy seemed to have traveled through time and space, returning to the past thousands of years. He saw the figures of human heroes, saw the powerful magic of moving mountains and filling seas, saw wars, and even saw many things. Other races besides humans.”
"In the end, after the little boy woke up, the light group disappeared and turned into a lot of magic knowledge and vague memories of myths that appeared out of thin air in his mind."
"After that, the little boy embarked on another path. He used this knowledge and devoted himself to study and research. He firmly believed that the legends and myths that the world regarded as fiction were real, and those heroic spirits who fought for mankind It should not be forgotten, and to prove this to the world, the young boy arrived in the Royal City and became a professor at the Royal Academy."
"Perhaps the little boy has gone through too many hardships... This time he was very lucky. In the first week of his employment, he met someone who understood him, recognized him, and..."
Liao Yu paused for a moment, then turned his gaze back to Velxi opposite him. He met the elf's eyes and said softly:
"Meeting a kind lady who was willing to listen to his story made him open up."
