Chapter 124: The Arrogant Mage

Evan and Charlotte's seven-week Fervien Leigh rescue plan has begun, and these days, Charlotte has been suppressing her inner anxiety and showing a very tame attitude.

Even the search for the base point of the circle in the second week has been completely abandoned. Because he is afraid that after revealing his intention to escape, the annoyed witch will kill him. It didn't matter if he died, but if the death reset would cause inconvenience to Aven's plans, it would be a heinous crime.

But at the same time, Sylvia's safety cannot be put aside. Judging from the development of the world line in the second week, at least until the seventh day, Sylvia did not act recklessly. But what about the eighth day, and what about the ninth?

In order to save herself, Charlotte still used words to Catherine, who was spying on her, to ensure that on the seventh day, Kathleen would be impressed by herself, and give her the formation map and key.

The wait was so long for Charlotte.

These days, Charlotte tried her best to suppress her anxiety, and in addition to the necessary communication and false promises, she devoted herself to the process of learning the Eight Rings Spell. After all, once Aven's side succeeds, he will start to implement the escape plan of the Witch's Castle, and then more strength will always make people feel more at ease.

The time came to the evening of the fifth day in the anxious waiting and nervous study, and from the afternoon, Charlotte could no longer immerse herself in the mood to study.

He sat in his private room, with a hot dinner on the small round table, and he sat opposite Elle, but no one was in the mood to eat.

Kathleen, who had already eaten dinner, leaned against the wall by the door as usual to meditate, and the keen eldest lady sensed Charlotte's uneasy mood, opened her eyes slightly, and a mocking smile appeared on the corners of her lips.

"What's the matter? Are you still thinking about someone?"

Charlotte was in no mood to argue with her at all, but for the next escape plan, she had to pull out an ugly smile, "No, it's just that I don't have much appetite." ”

Kathleen was silent, her face cloudy as she looked at the two of them. It's still a little possible that Charlotte occasionally has a bad appetite, but the stupid young girl is not in the mood to eat, which has to make Kathleen suspicious.

"You ...... Isn't that what the hell is going on?" Kathleen stared at Charlotte suspiciously, "Say it beforehand, I'm not as talkative as my colleagues in the Phantom Forest. If you dare to cause me trouble, I won't hesitate to attack you. ”

"Even if you will be punished by your master?" Charlotte smiled sarcastically and looked at Kathryn.

Honestly, for him, bickering with Kathleen has become almost his only form of entertainment these days. He didn't deliberately change the way he got along with Kathleen, firstly, the risk of changing the plot at will was not small, and secondly, he felt that the arrogant Katherine was not an object that could be easily attacked by showing overtures.

Kathleen's beautiful face showed a hint of annoyance.

"You don't think you have much respect for her, Kathryn. Seeing her indignant cute expression, Charlotte's anxious mood finally relaxed, "Let me guess it's because of Eleni's high-minded attitude that makes you waver, right? You respect your teacher Nancy, don't you? I think ......"

"Shut up!" said Kathleen hatefully, "stop your chattering persuasion, it won't make any sense! You think a few words can shake a master spellcaster? Stop playing around there, it will only make you look as pathetic as a wagging tail and begging puppy!"

Charlotte was silent, then smiled calmly, "Of course you will not be swayed by my words! Because your black eyes are for the roots, and your delicate ears are for hearing the truth! If anyone can shake you, it must not be me, nor Nancy or Elenie." That person can only be yourself!"

Seeing a slight waver in Kathryn's eyes, Charlotte continued, "You are always more confident in your own judgment, and reason makes you want to step out of the dark room, but emotions turn into chains and bind you firmly. But I believe in you, and you will always take that step, because you know what is right, because no matter how difficult it is, it is right and good for you, and for your beloved Lord Nancy!

Kathryn's reply was frosty, "Don't say that you seem to know me well. ”

Having said that, Kathryn felt cold all over. She felt that Charlotte's black eyes were so penetrating that they seemed to be able to see through people's souls made her tremble, which made her extremely angry and extremely uneasy.

"Of course I know you, or part of your essence. Charlotte smiled, "Because we are the same kind of people! As seekers of truth, we always trust our own judgment more than others." ”

Even if it was an angry expression, it was so charming on Catherine, who had a good face. Her breasts rose and fell, adjusting her mood in this way. She suddenly saw Charlotte's hands stirring unconsciously on her legs, and her mood turned from cloudy to sunny, and the corners of her lips curled up with a charming amplitude.

"You're arrogant, Charlotte. ”

"How?" Charlotte asked subconsciously.

"Do you know what true arrogance is? not the indifference of being high, always right, seeing through everything, because that is called transcendence!" Kathleen pointed her index finger at Charlotte's restless churning hands, "True arrogance is even if you are extremely uneasy in your heart, even if you can't even determine the direction of your future, even if you are very nervous about your own judgment, very unconfident. But he also pretended to be full of confidence, trying to convey his ideas and confidence to others, and put on a high-minded attitude of preaching to others!"

Charlotte's complexion has changed!

"Are you afraid! am I right?" said Kathryn smiling proudly, "Arrogant Mr. Mage, you are not confident enough in what you are holding onto!"

Charlotte stands up!

Kathleen spoke to his heart. She's right, Charlotte isn't as confident as she seems.

Even though he seemed to believe that he would never be influenced by Lu Sien, it was only an autosuggestive emphasis, he seemed to believe that his system of spells could be the source of exaltation of the throne, but he did not have that confidence in his heart, he seemed to believe that he could cheat the root cause and change the fate of Vivien Leigh, but every action was like a gambler's fear, he seemed to believe that he could control his own destiny, but deep down he felt that his every choice was like a pawn being manipulated......

There is too much anxiety in his heart, and the confidence he shows is the opposite of Charlotte's inner restlessness, but he always shows a confident smile, trying to convey faith and determination to others, and even to himself!

And all this, as Kathryn said, is the real arrogance!

Perhaps this is the malevolent nature of the Death Reset, and the transcendent identity of the observer gives Charlotte the capital to make a new choice, making him feel lucky, and thus lacking the indomitable courage necessary to achieve the roots.

Charlotte's eyes trembled, and he tried to retort, but found that his throat was dry.

He closed his eyes and inhaled deeply, and only after a long time did he open his eyes and said slowly, "...... Teachable!"

Kathryn, who had expected Charlotte to be annoyed, widened her eyes.

"You're right. It is always easier for people to see others, but it is extremely difficult to see themselves. Charlotte bowed calmly to Kathryn, "If I can achieve the root one day, I think the person I should thank the most is you, my old enemy!"

"......" expects Charlotte's approval, which is regarded as an archenemy, but after actually achieving her goal, Kathleen feels a sense of loss in her heart.

"It's boring!"

Kathleen said this, leaning back against the wall, clasping her hands on her chest and closing her eyes.
