8. Spells or something, girl, are you here to be funny?

"The milk is ready, please use it. ”

As a result, there was milk that Ji Ning handed over diligently, and Eve didn't taste it quickly, but made an unexpected move.

"Huh, you want coffee?"

I saw Eve pick up Lévy's coffee and put her cup of milk in front of Lévy.

"Wild cats, want milk. ”

"Poof!"

Okazaki, who was pretending to drink coffee with a cup and had been paying attention to the situation here, couldn't help but squirt out all the coffee he had just poured into his mouth when he heard Eve's words. Fortunately, his head was lowered, and the black liquid that was difficult to wash off did not occupy Yuki's school uniform, but only covered the table in front of Okazaki's seat.

"Ah, towel towels. ”

You Ji Ning hurriedly found a towel to dry the table. Okazaki made an apologetic gesture, but didn't dare to speak. It's just because he's afraid that as soon as he opens his mouth, he can't help but laugh. Levi is a big man known as a cat, and a wild cat. And if you think about it, Levi's elusive temperament and lazy personality are really like the wild cats that Eve said. It's the funniest joke he's heard in recent times. But because the joke teller didn't seem to be self-conscious at all, and it was an unfamiliar girl from a foreign school, Okazaki didn't dare to be too presumptuous out of politeness.

"Is it milk again......

Okazaki's mind mimicked Levy's reactions in that moment, laughing, playing silly, and even getting angry. But the result disappointed him.

Lévy took a big sip of the milk, feeling the sweetness in his mouth, as if reminiscing about the past. Just an ordinary glass of milk reminded him of scenes from the past.

Why is fate always so unpredictable, and is it better for Eve if she doesn't summon the Heroic Spirit?

Levi stared at the glass of milk with a complicated expression.

It was a long time ago, and Lévy had long since forgotten the exact time. At that time, I had just received a very well-paid assignment. Disrupt a criminal organization and seize some of its research materials.

In the vast universe, people commit crimes every minute. Fraud, theft, robbery, and even murder, wherever there is intelligent life, is a breeding ground for evil. A sin that can never be erased, Lévy certainly never thought of making a useless attempt on his own. With limited control over sin in exchange for enough money to live, Lévy does not refuse to be a killer to be shunned.

Never only accepting commissions for criminals or criminal organizations, for Levy, this organization is not much different from previous missions, except that it is slightly larger and more tight.

The process started as he had imagined, even simpler than some of the commissions he had ever received. This criminal organization engaged in the arms trade is far less combatant than its reputation in the industry.

Levi effortlessly disrupted the opponent's chain of command, and used special equipment to cryonize a group of important people who had fled blindly, and the initial mission was completed.

With no one to stop him, Levi easily gained access to the biological weapons lab hidden beneath the Order. Instead of using biological warfare agents such as microorganisms and toxins to kill the enemy, living animals are physically and chemically modified and put on the battlefield as weapons.

According to the information provided by the client, the organization's research has even designed experiments on human modification in addition to large animals. Even Levy, accustomed to seeing all kinds of criminals, could not hide his disgust at such behavior. It is a blessing for him to receive this commission.

The research room occupies a larger area than the above-ground building. The labyrinthine path forced Lévi to look at each room one by one.

In the room he had initially opened, he saw a canine creature with a mechanical limb transplanted. The next room is a bird with strange limbs.

After looking at dozens of rooms, Lévy had developed an immunity to the lump of flesh in front of him, which he didn't know what to call it, soaked in liquid. Flipping through the documents on the table, there was no computer here, and he could only collect all the papers he found.

Open the next door, the same pattern, only with a larger area. But the iconic tank filled with liquid is only one in the middle of the room.

With a somewhat hurried footstep, Lévi approached the culture tank in the center of the room. There, he saw the last thing he wanted to see - human beings.

The tank is filled with an unknown liquid that emits a faint green glow. In the liquid, a sapient creature that should have been similar to Levi's by its appearance floated silently.

It was a woman. The other party is red. Naked, Levi was easily able to tell her gender. Blonde hair, almost the same length as her height, floated in the liquid from time to time and wrapped around her body. The face with her eyes closed made this girl, who should only be fifteen or sixteen years old, look so peaceful. It is as if sleeping in the ** of the mother's birth.

But Lévy knew that the disgustingly green fluid could never be the amniotic fluid that represented the origin of human life.

The girl was still alive, and her slightly undulating breasts made Lévy come to this conclusion that pleased him. He hurriedly turned and ran to the console to the side. But he's not good at non-combat skills, and he can't figure out how to operate to rescue the girl.

"Damn, which one is the switch?"

There were so many buttons on the console that Lévy didn't even dare to touch them. If he gets the program wrong, I'm afraid it will cause the last thing he wants to see.

He took out the communicator and looked at it, but there was still no signal as before. Since entering the underground laboratory, the means of communication have been shielded by the special materials of the building.

Just as he turned to walk out of the underground laboratory and contact someone who could help, the culture tank behind him sounded a mechanical operation.

Levi hurriedly turned around, only to see several indicators at the bottom of the tank flickering, and then the green liquid in the tank slowly decreased, apparently being discharged through underground pipes.

The girl, who has lost enough buoyancy, touches the bottom of the culture tank with her feet. The girl, who was supposed to be unconscious, did not fall as Levi imagined, but stood firmly in the cultivation tank.

With the unknown, with anticipation, time seems to be stretched. It wasn't until Levi waited impatiently and was about to step forward to check that the tank was completely emptied.

Facing Levi, the girl's eyes, which had always been closed, finally opened slowly.

The long eyelashes fluttered slightly, and the girl's closed eyes slowly opened.

"Hey, how do you open this?"

Levi tapped on the transparent shell of the incubator and tried to talk to the girl inside.

Levi saw his own reflection in the girl's ruby pupils. But maybe the girl just opened her eyes to him. Because no matter how loud Lévy called, the girl remained still.

Tapping twice against the tank, Lévy felt the thickness and hardness of the shell. It shouldn't be difficult to forcibly destroy, but the problem is that there is no way to stop the flying fragments from accidentally injuring the girl inside. If God were to play a joke with him, which piece of splinter had broken the girl's major artery, Levi couldn't find any medicine to stop her bleeding now, he had never been in the habit of carrying those things.

"Huh?"

Turning his gaze away from the hull of the tank, Lévy wasn't sure if he heard anything. It's like the sound of a machine starting, but it's too small, and if it's some kind of insect that is invisible to the naked eye, it's more likely.

As Lévi followed the source of the voice and turned his attention to the girl again, he suddenly noticed the situation that had just been ignored.

The girl's long hair, which was the same height as the girl, had lost the buoyancy of the liquid, but there were still many ends floating in the air in an unnatural form. If you look closely, the thin strands of hair seem to have life, slowly squirming like countless tentacles.

At first the movements seemed sluggish and aimless, but after a while, the movements of the hair became more and more fluid, and as if looking for each other's help, they were tightly wound into several thicker braids.

Bang!

The girl's braids suddenly accelerated, and several golden braids were slammed into the transparent shell of the cultivation tank.

Sensing that things were a little different from what he had imagined, Lévi took a few steps back alertly, observing the unbelievable scene in front of him from afar.

With a bang, the glass-like shell of the incubator shattered, and the scattered fragments made Levi scramble for a while, and he was almost torn through his clothes.

Walk out of the culture tank with bare feet. The girl standing naked on the ground, the blonde hair did not stop by destroying the shell. Those braids, in Levi's eyes, were like venomous snakes that had been given life, spitting bright red letters in search of the next prey.

"Hello, can you understand me?"

Lévy has a small translator on his body, but in order to save money, his machine can only translate text, not directly translate sound into intelligible language. He wasn't sure if the girl could understand the lingua franca.

It is said that snakes have extremely poor hearing sense, and can only react quickly to shocks coming from the ground. If the dancing blonde hair of the maiden is really a snake, it is clear that they violate this theory.

As soon as Lévi's words came out, the girl's braids immediately stopped dancing, as if aiming at the locked target, and turned in the direction where Lévy was.

Levy, who sensed that something was wrong, immediately tensed his relaxed nerves. The girl's braids swirled and twisted before his eyes, and then suddenly, like several spears, shot at Levi.

Levy, who had been prepared for a long time, was surprised by the girl's attack, but still dodged in time. Seeing that the laminate floor, which was supposed to be able to withstand the attacks of heavy weapons, was easily pierced by the girl's hair, Levi was glad for his reaction speed. Otherwise, his body will have at least a few more holes in the light.

Levi just wanted to step forward to control the girl, but the other party didn't give him a chance to get close. The strands of hair stuck in the ground did not retract, and the remaining blonde hair, which still hung down the back of his head, turned into several sharp blades in a way that Lévy could not understand. The bladed hair, with a swifter and more agile movement than when held in a human hand, continued to attack Levi one after another.

Speed, angle, reaction, the girl played everything to the extreme. The blade slashed against the skin several times, and Levy, who had lost his first move, could only dodge desperately.

The laboratory was supposed to be quite spacious, but at the moment Lévy couldn't help but complain about its crampedness. Indoors, he was unable to distance himself far enough, nor could he reduce his physical exertion by making a wide range of detours. If you stay here any longer, you will sooner or later be cut into thin slices of meat by countless blades.

――If that's the case, how can I still be in the mood to eat sashimi in the future?

If someone who can read minds is present, I wonder if they will admire Levi's unruly situation, or laugh at him for being an idiot?

Jumping back, Lévy had retreated to the door of the lab. Without time to unscrew the handle, Levi's eyes were fixed on the hair that was striking in front of him, the black decorative gun that he had already held in his hand, but the muzzle of the gun was facing behind him. There is no need to aim at all, only to judge the direction by memory, and a few bullets composed of 'gas' accurately hit the door lock. Then Levi kicked his feet and slammed his back into the unlocked door.

After rushing out of the laboratory, he was probably confused by Levi's sudden move, and he didn't react for a while. The girl didn't immediately chase after her. But Levi won't stupidly stop and rest just because the other party hasn't chased him for the time being.

He returned the same way down the hallway, and in a short time he jumped out of the secret door that he had smashed into scrap metal and returned to the ground.

The place where Levi is standing now was originally a utility room, but now there is only a broken wall left, and the whole space looks like a part of the courtyard, and it is impossible to imagine that it was once a secret room. I don't know what kind of fierce battle he fought just now to destroy this large villa like this.

Leaning against the only wall, Lévy pulled a cigarette case from his pocket, took one out of it and lit it.

――When did you start smoking?

The past is so vague that even some hazy fragments are about to disappear. I always felt that it was to commemorate someone who made him accustomed to the smell of cigarettes.

Twisting the two-puff cigarette on the wall, Lévy put aside his melancholy that had nothing to do with the present. He could already hear clear footsteps, coming from the underground passage. It is estimated that soon, the little golden head will emerge from the exit.

Unfortunately, today is not destined to be a lucky day for the killer, and when Levi guessed that the girl was about to appear, the ground where he was standing suddenly began to shake violently.

Boom, like a blast from within. The entire floor cracked into several pieces and was tossed high. Levi, who sighed that the girl had surprised him again, hurriedly jumped away from the bouncing clods.

Before he could land, he saw the girl fly out of the big hole with the dirt sprayed into the sky.

That's right, it's 'flying'.

The girl was originally red. On her naked body, she was already wearing a black dress that she didn't know where to find it. But this was not the focus of Levy's attention, what attracted his attention was a pair of wings that grew out of thin air on the girl's back.

White wings, long blonde hair, and a jet-black dress. Like a fallen angel, the girl swooped down towards Lévi from above.

The whole body is full of murder weapons - although it seems indecent, but this sentence is indeed the most suitable for the description of a girl.

The flying blonde hair turned into a fist, and sometimes into a hammer. Sharp knives grew from his wrists with both hands, and even a casual kick turned into a giant axe that would cut Levi in two.

Levi is overwhelmed by the girl's endless arsenal of weapons and ever-changing tactics.

It's not that he can't do anything about the girl's attack. If the girl is a killer hired by the organization, he can use the fastest and most effective way to end her life, even if he himself will inevitably be injured.

But Lévy can't do that.

From the very beginning, he found out that the girl did not wake up. His eyes were fixed on him, and he continued to attack him in a stormy manner, but Levi could feel that none of this was the girl's will.

It seems that she was hypnotized, or since she was transformed into a humanoid weapon, the girl's spirit was controlled. The girl's current behavior is just a subconscious action.

Moreover, this round of instinctive attacks, Levi believes that it will not last long.

Soon, as Levi thought, the girl's offensive slowed down suddenly. Like a robot with a reduced battery, the attack continues, but in Levi's eyes, it has lost its initial sharpness, and has become sluggish and dull.

Then, the girl seemed to have reached her limit. I saw a pair of wings behind me, and suddenly burst like foam. The girl, who had lost the ability to fly, fell straight to the ground where the dirt had been turned over.

"Alas, when I went back, I had to throw away this outfit. ”

Levi sighed as he looked at his ragged trench coat, which was almost like a beggar.

Not far away, a blonde girl lay on the ground. Levi didn't have to touch it to feel her body temperature rise to a level far greater than that of a normal creature. Most likely, it is the consequence of an overloaded battle, like an overheated machine, which temporarily does not function properly.

"Are you awake?"

The girl struggled to raise her head, and the gaze that shot at Levi was no longer as godless as a mist just now, and regained her vitality as a human being.

"We shouldn't have a reason to fight. ”

Sitting down on a protruding mound of dirt, Lévy opened his mouth to stop the girl's struggle.

"The organization that used you as a 'weapon' has been eliminated by me. ”

Angry and counterattacked, if the girl finally this organization, at a loss, if the girl was transformed by the organization from birth......

Lévy thought of all the possibilities, and what to do with them. There is no shortage of similar experiences in previous missions.

But the girl didn't seem to hear him at all, and curled up on the ground, looking up with all her might. The ruby eyes, which had regained their vitality and looked even more charming, stared at Levi tightly.

Are you unwilling?

From the girl's eyes, Lévy could not see a trace of negativity. In the fluctuations of Yingying, it seems to reveal incomprehensible joy.

A crystal drop of water swept across the girl's face.

"I've finally found you, Torre......"

==================

……

Torre

……

Torre

In a daze, Levi felt someone push him on the shoulder. I opened my sleepy eyes and couldn't figure out where I was.

As far as the eye can see, there are only simple tables and chairs and shelves full of books. A simply furnished room with him and the blonde girl waking him up.

"Little Princess...... You've bought too many books this time......"

"Ahh

Levi, who was not yet sober, didn't know what he had just said. I guess I was complaining about Eve waking me up or something. But just that, why was she so surprised?

"It's Eve, what's wrong with you?"

"Torrey, you just called me ......."

"What are you called? Eve, don't worry, I remember you didn't like that code name and won't call it again. ”

Levi thought about it, could it be that he called the code name 'Golden Darkness' again when he was not awake?

From the commission of the first meeting, Eve has somehow become a killer as well. The next few encounters, though they didn't have a lot of violent clashes like that one, also made Levi know that she didn't like the title 'Golden Darkness'.

"No! no!"

The girl shook her head desperately, her supple blonde hair flying back and forth in the air.

"Did you remember it when you dreamed? and now you forgot it? Isn't it, tell me you remember, Torre!"

――Remember?

Levi thinks back to the dream he had just had, and vaguely remembers what seemed to be the first time he and Eve met. Could there be anything else?

Dreams are involuntary phenomena that occur during sleep, and they are often unable to go back after waking up. Levi thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't remember what else he had dreamed about.

- Did you say something in your dream that made her think that I was the 'Torre'?

While he was puzzled, Lévy didn't realize that he didn't seem to be as disgusted by Eve as someone else.

"Don't you remember......"

"I'm sorry. ”

Eve had a disappointed look on her face, and Levi couldn't help but blurt out an apology. Perhaps, subconsciously, he didn't want to see the girl's sadness.

"It doesn't matter. ”

Lévy's apology seemed to have had an effect, and Eve, who looked up again, had regained her composure. The delicate little face with big eyes even made Levi feel as if she had a smile that she had barely seen before.

"Torre doesn't have to apologize, he'll remember. ”

Eve held Levy's hand tightly, as if that would convey her conviction to him.

"Who!?"

Before Lévi could figure out how to answer, there was a sound of the door opening behind the two, and Eve immediately stood up and turned around.

"Ah~ Sorry, I seem to be bothered. ”

The manager of the library, Miyazawa Yukini, leaned in half of his body from the open door and replied with a smile.

Hearing Ji Ning's words, Eve realized that although she stood up, she was still holding Levi's hand tightly.

"No, I should apologize. ”

Casually let go of her hand and resumed her doll-like expression, but upon careful Levi, he noticed a faint flush on Eve's face.

"Where's Okazaki?"

Levi was much calmer than Eve, and in fact nothing would have happened to the two of them that would have caused people to misunderstand.

"Did you mean that classmate? He went back as soon as he got out of class. ”

I guess I can't stand the awkward atmosphere. Levi imagines Tomoya Okazaki, an adolescent boy, alone in the same room with two young girls because he is asleep. And the three of them are only meeting for the first time, even if Ji Ning is approachable, but with the taciturn Eve, the awkward atmosphere cannot be avoided.

"Wow, it's lunchtime, and the bento is still in the office!"

"Mr. Levy!"

Ji Ning called Levi, who was about to run back to the office to get a bento.

"If I don't mind, I can prepare lunch for the two of you. ”

As he spoke, You Ji Ning pointed to the pile of kitchen utensils behind the long table that were extremely incompatible with the library.

"Well, although I used to see rice cookers and the like every time I came here, I didn't expect you to really do this? ”

"Ah, rest assured, no open flames are used here. ”

Youji Ning was not intimidated by Levy's tone, and according to what she knew about this teacher, it was just a joke. What's more, as she said, the school rules only prohibit the use of open flames, induction cookers, etc., and they are not among the restrictions, which has to be said to be an omission of the old provisions.

Bypass where the two are sitting and return to your own little space. Youji Ning opened her cabinet that was estimated to be full of edible items again, lowered her head and searched inside, and turned out a few bags.

"I'm sorry, but there's only enough ingredients for fried rice, fried noodles, and curry, so what do you two need?"

"Fried rice, curry is more troublesome. ”

The curry had just been eaten recently, and Levi was not very interested in the kind of supermarket-bought bagged instant food compared to the delicious curry made by Cha Cha Maru himself. Of course, this doesn't mean that he is too picky, but relatively speaking, he wants to try the fried rice made by Ji Ning.

"Okay, a fried rice, do you want beef or pork?"

It seems that Ji Ning is addicted to playing games, and Levi is also happy to play with her. After a little thought, he chose pork.

"What about Miss Eve? It's the first time I've met the students of Ma Fan Liang School Park, please don't be polite, be sure to let me entertain you well. ”

I have to say that curiosity is an instinct that no one can avoid. For the two mysterious areas of Gakuen Island, Ma Fan Liang and Gakuen City, almost all students in Chuo Ward are very curious. Occasionally see one or two Ma Fanliang or school city personnel,Even if it doesn't attract onlookers,It's common to turn around and stop and talk quietly.。

Just like when Okazaki met Eve, he was not so much attracted by her appearance, but actually the school uniform of Ma Fan Liang that interested him more.

Ji Ning was the same, obviously very happy to be able to meet a student of Ma Fanliang.

"Just like him. ”

Eve, like Levy, is generally not picky when it comes to food. However, the reasons for the two are slightly different. Evan once said that Levi is like a food incinerator, as long as it is edible, throw it all in. Eve, on the other hand, is more like a real killer, and her knowledge of food is only at the level of what is necessary to replenish the body.

"Two servings of beef fried rice, okay, please wait. ”

Arikinin happily began cooking. Eve took advantage of this moment to continue reading the novel she had just found. Levy, on the other hand, was thinking that if there was a chance, he would have to help Eve find her favorite food, believing that this young girl who lived in the smoke of gunfire all day long had just not tasted anything suitable for her taste.

Maybe dessert is just the way to go.

"I was full, it tasted so good, thank you for the hospitality. ”

"Thank you. ”

There is Ji Ning's craftsmanship that makes Levi very satisfied. With just a few simple and ordinary ingredients, you can concoct such a delicious fried rice. If you give her the right kitchenware and good materials, she will definitely be able to make a delicious meal that is no less than tea and tea balls.

Although Eve didn't have any special performance, judging from the fact that she ate a whole plate of fried rice cleanly, she also admired Ji Ning's cooking skills.

"There's still some time left before class, why don't you try some fun spells?"

After cleaning up the dishes, Ji Ning began to sell the spell she had been obsessed with again. Just now because Levi was asleep and didn't have a chance to let them try, this attentive girl seemed to have been haunting her, and when she found an opportunity, she immediately brought it up.

"Well, I've slept enough anyway. ”

Without asking Eve's opinion, Lévi said yes. Because he knew very well that this girl usually didn't have any opinions on things other than the mission. In a way, she is a very good girl, excluding the taciturn words.

"Okay, wait a minute. ”

Sure enough, most of the schoolgirls like romantic games like divination. As soon as Ji Ning heard Levi's promise, he immediately ran to the bookshelf on the side and pulled out a thick booklet from it.

"Commonly used...... Incantations...... Encyclopedia?"

"This kind of name seems to be common in convenience stores, right?"

Hearing Eve's name come to mind, Levy immediately conjured up girls' favorite self-hypnosis books such as 'XX Astrology', 'XX Horoscope', and 'A Hundred Easy Ways to Make Him Fall in Love with You'.

Of course, it's just a mental complaint. He wouldn't be so stupid as to say it to hit Ji Ning's rare hobby. Although this girl doesn't seem to have any hobbies that can be called 'normal'.

"Remember that there are some ways to relax and relieve fatigue, such as ......"

Ariki didn't know what was going on in Levy's head, so she put the book on the table and flipped through the pages to find where she needed it.

"Make fists with both hands and point your index fingers on your temples. ”

"Is that so?"

After enjoying coffee and lunch, Levi, who had received a lot of hospitality from Youjining, did as Youjining said, although he didn't believe the things in the book at all.

"Hmm...... Next, recite three times to 'refresh your mind'. ”

……

About three seconds later, Levi opened his eyes. As expected, he didn't feel any changes in his body.

"I'm done. ”

"Good. ”

“…… What will happen? I don't feel anything special. ”

"Well, I'll see, it should be ......"

Seeing Youji Ning carefully searching for something in the book, Levi wondered if she was just looking for a random spell to play with, right?

"It seems to be a mantra that is good for people with Parkinson's disease. ”

Hearing Ji Ning's answer, Levi's sitting posture was unstable and he almost slipped off his chair. And Eve, who was supposed to be a serious reader of the novel next to her, lifted the book to cover her small mouth, and burst out laughing. At least in terms of being funny, Levi is obviously not as good as this girl named Miyazawa Yukining, you must know that he has put a lot of effort into making the blonde girl who is suspected of facial dysfunction show some expression.

"Pa...... Parkinson?"

"It is commonly known as Alzheimer's disease, and Mr. Levi did not feel the effect, probably because he was not a patient. Anyway, congratulations. ”

Levy had a strange expression on his face, probably thinking about whether he should be happy or not. After all, although he is not young, he does not seem to have the same illness as a black boxing champion.

"There are also spells to make people notice your manhood and fall in love with you. ”

"Sounds good, what to do?"

Lévy hadn't expected anything from Ji Ning's spell, but now it was even more perfunctory. Anyway, it's time to pass the time before class.

"Do you want to try it? Find the target girl, take off her pants, and silently recite 'Hormonal Radiation' three times. ”

……

"Torre, H. ”

Eve covered her mouth with a book, her voice so low that only Lévy could hear. Maybe it was done on purpose, Levi, who was already speechless by Ji Ning, even ran out of strength to explain to Eve.

"Any questions?"

Ji Ning looked at the teacher who seemed to have been petrified with a puzzled look. Maybe it was because she was simple-minded, or maybe she didn't know what an amazing statement she had just made.

"Alas, it's not your problem. With Ji Ning, I'm too timid, even if there is a possibility of success, I don't have the courage to do it. Please, can you find a spell that's simpler and more feasible?"

After listening to Levi's words, Ji Ning seemed to understand his troubles. Of course, with Ji Ning's simple mind, it is indeed just 'like'.

"I see, is Levi-sensei afraid that he won't find a suitable partner? If that's the case, I have a spell for this situation. ”

I opened the heavy encyclopedia of spells again, I don't know if it was to express my apology for the two consecutive failures just now, or to prove the correctness of my beloved books. What had always been a bland and gentle tone suddenly quickened, conveying a firm conviction that Lévy couldn't stop.

"This spell is very simple, point to your chest with your left hand, and say 'I think about people' three times, and then the first one to call Mr. Levi's name is not necessarily love, but it must be someone who cares about you in his heart. ”

“…… All right. ”

With Ji Ning's determined gaze, and with the idea that there is nothing to lose if he fails, Levi decides to fulfill her strange spell one last time. It's just that I always feel that Eve around me is shooting through the sight of books, with an inexplicable meaning.

"Levy. Mr. McDowell, please hear the announcement and go to the Student Council office. ”

No sooner had he finished the spell than a loudspeaker on the wall of the hallway came a call to Levi. I don't know if it was an accident or the effect of a spell, but this broadcast was not pronounced by the students at the radio station, but was actually conveyed by the student council president, Rin Nagasaka.

"You're Ji Ning, your spell is quite smart. I'm pretty sure the guy who called me on the radio definitely 'cares' about me right now. ”

In the broadcast just now, when Rin said the word 'go quickly', the obvious pause and accent made Levi feel a deep resentment.

Looking at Eve, who was putting down the book next to him, Lévi realized that perhaps, he was late again......

"There is Ji Ning, thank you for your hospitality. Probably the student will have work to deal with, see you next time. ”

Pulling up the seated Eve, Lévy thanked Yukinin.

"Welcome back next time, Mr. Levy. ”

After nodding to Youjining, Levi took Eve and hurriedly walked out of the library.

The meeting with Rin was the reason why Levi brought Eve to No. 2 Middle School. It's just that I didn't expect the student council president to be so impatient that he actually used the radio to find him in person. I'm afraid that the afternoon class will inevitably be called the focus of some students' gossip.

A little comforting to him was that the student union office wasn't too far from here.

==================

"Shinji Maki didn't come to school today. ”

Seeing Levi push the door in, Rin, who was standing by the window looking at the playground, reported information that Levi had known for a long time.

"Wouldn't it be better if you didn't come? ”

Pull a chair from the conference table and beckon Eve to take a seat. Levi looked from behind at her blonde hair that had fallen to the ground as she sat down, and studied the girl's special ability to keep it from getting dirty. In addition, he maliciously imagined what Eve would have behaved when she stood up if he secretly stepped on that pile of long hair. It should hurt, right?

"Of course it's good that he won't accidentally hurt his classmates, but if he hides and waits for an opportunity to plot against you, it would be fun, right?"

Obviously worried, but he had to express it in such an awkward way. Lévy often wonders if there is something wrong with his education style, how can a mature and stable child who was like an adult when he was a child grow up to become this duplicitous and mischievous appearance.

"Forget it, although I've only had a conflict with him once, I know that with his IQ, I can't think of anything like that. Besides, that Berserker, do you think it's up to the assassination mission?"

Rin hadn't seen Berserker in person, but she had heard Levi and Kaguya describe it. To make that kind of big man who is tall and heavy at the level of a giant act covertly, even if he can be spiritualized, it is too difficult for him. And in the case of Berserker alone, he was deprived of his mind and ability to think, and he could not carry out too complex instructions at all.

"And,"

Levi casually picked up the cup on the president's desk and took a sip of water, just after Ji Ning wasted a lot of saliva, he already felt thirsty.

Rin Tosaka, who is the person concerned, doesn't care, Levi can at least be regarded as her guardian, even in the identity file, it is a legal relative. Neither of them thought about what kind of misunderstanding would be caused if this kind of behavior was seen by others.

Eve, who had sat on the sidelines and hadn't said a word since she came in, was obviously misunderstood. She didn't say anything to stop her, and her expression didn't change much, but the eyes that stared at Levi's cup hand betrayed her master's mind.

Rin doesn't have feelings for Levi just because the relationship between the two is more like that of an elder and a child, but it doesn't mean that there is anything missing in her sensitivity as a woman. Eve's small movements did not escape the keen eyes of the student council president. Seeing Eve's eyes, a wave of doubt rose in his heart at the same time.

It should have been only a few days since the summoning of the Heroic Spirit, but when did he cultivate the relationship between him and Love at First Sight? Although Levi is indeed a handsome man who can make most women unforgettable at first sight, Rin doesn't think so.

From the details of entering the door to beckoning Eve to sit down, it can be seen that the two have a good tacit understanding. It's not a relationship that is familiar and has a certain amount of trust, and it doesn't come as naturally as it becomes.

"Hey, what do you want?"

"Wow!"

A hand suddenly shook in front of Rin's eyes, and it turned out that Levi saw her in a daze and shook his hand in front of her. She hurriedly put away her curiosity to compare with a kitten, and by the way, suppressed the mischievous desire that rose in her heart. Look, make a gesture to indicate that you are thinking just now.
