Chapter 32: Farewell

Zero and Andrel walked together in front of the central square of the Holy See of Light, where Empress Diria, Vangellis, and the others were gathering by the pool to talk.

Iselly and her brother Vitok were playing by the pool when they noticed Zero and Andrel walking in this direction, and Iselly happily trotted over to them.

Andrel whispered to Zero "I'll go first" and turned to leave, Zero stood still looking at Ishelly who ran to his side.

"Jeno, I'm qualified for my magic awakening, I can become a fire mage!" said Isley happily to Zero.

Zero nodded, smiled and said to Iselie, "That's anon." ”

"Oh...... I don't mean to show off, you're not going to be angry...... are you," Iseley asked with some concern as she suddenly thought of her lifeless appearance at the end of school two days ago.

"No......" Zero shook his head slightly, "I'm sorry, Isselie, I was in a bad mood the other two days and lost my temper with you, I'm sorry." ”

"Hah, it's good if you're not angry with me~" Isley looked at Zero happily and smiled.

Zero noticed Queen Diria's gaze, and he bowed to Diria from a distance, and only after seeing Diria nod in satisfaction with him did he continue to talk to Isery.

"Anyway, congratulations on becoming a magician. ”

"Thank you~" Isley said with a small white tooth smile at Zero.

Zero looked at Isely's immature and lovely face in the sunset, and couldn't help but reach out and touch her ear, Iseley was a little shy when he touched her like this, lowered her eyes, pinched the corner of her skirt and didn't dare to look at him.

Zero put down his hand and said unhurriedly to Isely, "Actually, you're fine, Isely. ”

"Ah...... I ......," said Iselly, reluctantly, stealthily raising her eyes to look at Zero, her gaze dodging to the side.

"Before, because you were a princess, you felt too pampered when we first met, so I kept talking coldly to you later, but in fact, you are not that bad, you are just...... It's still too small. Zero said with a smile on her face as she looked at Isley.

"Actually...... Sometimes I don't do well, I always feel that you talk and act like an adult, and you never get into trouble...... That's why I'm sticking to you, maybe that's why I annoy you......"

Zero laughed out loud when he saw that the normally squeamish Isheli was now as young as a little girl next door, and then he calmly said to Isery, "Anyway, let the unpleasantness of the past pass." Iselly, start your new life well, work hard and work hard, you are a princess, no one can force you to do what you don't want to do, since you can learn magic, learn it with all your might, and ...... in the future"

Zero paused at this point, then he put his hand on Isery's shoulder and patted her gently, saying, "I must be a beautiful and intelligent, smart, strong, responsible, and beloved princess in the future." ”

Iselly looked at Zero's hearty face in the setting sun and nodded firmly.

"Well, I'll go first, goodbye......"

With that, Zero waved at Isley and turned and walked down the stairs. Iselly looked at Zero's back as he walked down the stairs, took a few steps forward, and stood in place watching Zero's back as he walked down the stairs alone.

Vangelis led the congregation to bid farewell to Empress Diria, who turned and called out to Iselly and Vitok to return to the court.

Zero, who had walked down the stairs, glanced back at the Holy See of Light, and then calmly turned his face and walked in the direction of the Cretan family.

Cretan family mansion.

Passing by the courtyard of the Ryan family, where the door of the courtyard was wide open, he heard Natis's angry shouts from a distance. I saw Leyson running around the yard, Natis shouting after him with her rice bowl, Ryan and Sophie sitting at the dinner table eating their meals, and the family was happy. Zero knocked on the door, and several people noticed Zero standing at the door.

Natis saw Zero and said to him with a smile on her face, "Why is Jeno here? Have you eaten?"

"I went out for a walk, I just came home, and I'm going back to eat," Zero replied with a smile, "It seems that feeding Leyson at dinner time every day is the most headache for you~"

"Isn't it?" Natis sighed and glanced at Leyson, "Your brother doesn't like to eat dinner, so he can't be persuaded no matter what...... Your uncle doesn't say a word about him. ”

Natis said and patted Ryan's back, Ryan was eating vegetables and was almost choked by Nadis, he said helplessly: "It's useless for me to advise, children at this age love to make trouble, alas...... I'm too lazy to care~"

"You're just lazy! I'm busy every day, and I don't know how to appease you when you get home, and you don't care about the child!" said Natis with a blank look at Ryan.

"Good, good...... Evening soothing, evening soothing......" Ryan nodded in response.

Zero stood at the door and looked at the family and laughed, and then he shouted to Leyson: "Leyson, you must eat well, don't let your parents worry anymore, aren't you always afraid of people bullying you? ”

"Really?" said Leyson, looking at Zero with a look of surprise.

"Of course, when did I lie to you? No one dares to bully the tall and strong, don't believe you ask your mother. Zero replied.

Leyson looked up at Nades, who raised her eyebrows and nodded at him, and then Leyson reached out and took the rice bowl and obediently walked to the table to eat.

Natis looked at Jano and blinked, and Sophie smiled and said to Zero, "You can eat with us, Jeno." ”

"No, you can eat, I'll go back." Zero was about to leave, when he suddenly looked at Natis again and smiled, "By the way, Aunt Natis...... You're really beautiful~"

"Oh yo! you kid ......" Natis who had just sat down touched her cheek and laughed embarrassedly when she heard Zero's compliment, "I know I'm beautiful, I don't need you to praise me~"

Zero looked at Natis and laughed: "I used to praise you insincerely, but today I praise you sincerely~"

"Heh, you bastard, you lied to me when you praised me for being beautiful, right?" said Natis pretending to be angry.

"I didn't say that. Zero denied it.

"Then let me ask you, me or your mother, which is prettier?" asked Natis as she stared at Zero angrily.

"Well...... zero" Zero pursed his lips and smiled, "Aren't you very clear in your heart~"

Several people in the courtyard couldn't help but laugh when they heard Zero's words, only Natis gritted her teeth when she saw this scene.

"What do you mean by that, don't run, make it clear......" Natis shouted as she looked at Zero as she ran away.

"Goodbye!" Zero shouted back with a smile and ran away.

"I'm back......" Zero said as he walked into his yard and looked at Nasha as she set up the food, as Leah and Wayne sat at the dining table waiting for the meal to start.

"Arnold!" Leah shouted happily as she looked at Jeno as he walked into the courtyard.

Nasha set up the food and looked at Zero with a smile and said, "Aren't you going to stay at Grandpa's place to eat today?" ”

"Well, I'll eat here today. Zero replied calmly.

"Okay~ Today, our family can finally have a good meal. Nasha said with a smile.

Zero walked to the table and didn't look at Wayne, just took a bowl of rice handed by Nasha, picked up the chopsticks and lowered his head to eat silently.

Zero finished the meal silently, and the whole table was just Wayne and Nasha chatting without a word. Zero put down the dishes and chopsticks, picked up the handkerchief on the side and wiped his mouth, then got up and bowed to Wayne and Nasha and said, "I'm done eating, go back first, you use it slowly." ”

After saying that, Zero was about to turn around and go back to his room, when Leah finished eating the food in the bowl and said, "I'm done too!"

Nasha touched the back of Leah's head and praised her, "Leah ate so fast today, I finally caught up with my brother~"

"Hee-hee......" Leah wrinkled her nose and laughed

She then jumped off the table and walked over to Zero, grabbed his arm and said, "Let's go together, Arnold." ”

Zero didn't refuse, and walked towards the room, Leah walking beside him. Wayne and Nasha looked at each other's backs and smiled, and continued to eat.

"I'm here, it's getting late, so go back to your room." ”

The two stood in front of Zero's house, and Zero looked up at the already dark sky and said to Leah.

Leah nodded, then looked at Zero with a smile and said, "Well, why don't we both sleep together tonight." ”

"What?" said Zero, pouting at Leah, "how old are you? ”

"Alright, alright, then I'll go back. Leah smiled and waved her hand at Zero before turning away.

"Ahh......h

Leah turned around and looked at Zero curiously. Zero slowly walked up to her and hugged her.

"You...... What's wrong?" Leah asked, a little overwhelmed, holding her hands back to him.

"It's not ......" Zero gently patted Leah's petite back, then let go of his hand and looked at Leah's jewel-like light blue pupils through the light of the roadside.

"It occurred to me that I hadn't hugged you much before...... "Zero said with a smile.

"Shh......h

With a faint smile on Zero's face, he said to Leah in a serious tone: "Leah, you must live well, grow up well, be a strong girl, don't be too weak when you meet people, what if...... I'm not with you anymore, you have to take care of yourself, you know?"

"Arnold, what's wrong with you?" Leah felt something wasn't quite right as she listened to Zero's words, "Why did you say such things all of a sudden?

"It's nothing ......" Zero denied with a smile, "I can't learn magic anymore, my father wants to teach me fighting spirit, he is too strict, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to accompany you in the future." ”

"That's it, it's okay!I'll go to you, if I go, my father will definitely let me see you, I will follow my mother to learn cooking skills, and then make delicious food and bring it to you~" Leah said to Zero with an innocent smile.

Zero suddenly had a sour nose, he laughed with red eyes, raised his hand and touched the side of Leah's face, and said to Leah with a slightly trembling voice, "You ...... A simple girl...... You must grow up well! Be a beautiful and kind girl. ”

"Oh~ I should have said this to you. Leah said and reached out to touch the side of Zero's face, "You also have to grow up well, be a handsome and upright man!"

"Hmm...... Then we've agreed~" Zero said to Leah with a smile.

"Well, it's agreed, pull the hook~" Leah finished pulling Zero's hand, hooking his little finger with her own little finger, and then looking at him with an innocent smile.

Zero sniffed and grinned, then said to her, "Okay, it's not early, let's go back and rest." ”

"Well, you need to rest early, too. Leah smiled and took two steps back, then turned around and walked along the road.

"Goodbye. Zero beckoned to her back.

"Goodbye. Leah turned around as she walked, looked at Zero with a backward step and blinked, stretched out her finger and said "love you~".

Zero laughed out loud when he looked at Leah's cute appearance, and he reminded her, "Walk and look at the road, you girl." ”

"You're going to call me sister~" Leah looked at him and said.

"Okay, okay, sister......" Zero shouted helplessly, "Look at the road when you walk, go back and rest." ”

Leah laughed contentedly, said "I'm leaving", and then turned away, her supple hair fanning out in mid-air, and walked carefree down the path to her room.

"Goodbye girl...... I don't know when I'll see you again......"

The smile disappeared from Zero's face, and he calmly looked at Leah's cheerful back and said to her in his heart.
