Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Night of Stupidity
Webb and Golden Jie's solitude didn't last long.
Almost a few minutes after Frath invaded the wall and cast an amplification spell, Golden Hime left the room with her maid Karina.
It was a short time, but the conversation was enough to take a terrible storm into place, so much so that Rhaenys now regretted that she shouldn't have allowed Flatt to invade the walls.
However, it has already happened, and regretting it will not help, and the top priority is how to deal with it.
Just as Rhaenys was recalling the conversation and calculating the benefits and disadvantages, Webb's voice came from across the wall.
"Flat, I know you're eavesdropping, let them all come over. ”
"Ah, it's been discovered. Flatt habitually stuck out his tongue and casually withdrew to interfere, "The professor told us to go over, will you go?"
"Go!" said Rhaenys, grimly, "remember, what you hear tonight is not allowed to be leaked out. It's a matter of survival for the classroom, you know?"
"Understood!" the boys and girls nodded repeatedly.
Flatt added: "I won't say anything if I kill me." ”
"The most worrying thing about me is you, your mouth must be closed. ”
Rhaenys admonished Flat, who covered his mouth and said he would never speak - he was natural, and he was sometimes called a fool, but he wasn't really stupid, and he wouldn't make mistakes of principle.
After vaccinating everyone, the group arrived at Webb's room, which was separated by a wall.
Rhaenys got straight to the point: "Brother, what are your plans? Do you think Jin Jinji's escape is real?"
"It doesn't look fake, whether it's expressions, language, demeanor or logic, there is nothing wrong, but I always feel that something is wrong. Where is it?"
Webb folded his hands to his chest and frowned. Seeing him like this, Rhaenys and the others also began to review every word of Jin Jinji.
The reason given by Golden Ji for fleeing is "meaningless pain".
Her beauty is not born naturally, but is constantly transformed, and this process is bound to lead to great suffering. But this is a very common thing for magicians, and it is a kind of self-transformation from the beginning of transplanting the magic mark, and the process is inevitably painful. In addition, it is not uncommon to modify the brain and internal organs. The insect magic developed by the dirty inkstone also has a lot of content about body transformation.
It can be said that the growth of a magician is accompanied by pain. But it all needs to be built on a foundation – and the pain has to be meaningful. If there is no meaning, meaningless suffering is tantamount to self-destruction.
Historically, such meanings have not been uncommon. After a certain stage of magic, the methodology used before becomes completely useless. If it can be changed in time, then there is still salvation, continue the road that has become useless, and the family will usher in the end.
And the Izeluma family, to be precise, Golden Ji's father Byron is in such a state of obsession, at least in the mouth of Golden Ji.
"If this continues, one of me or Bai Yinji will die sooner or later. ”
Jin Jinji said. In order to avoid meaningless suffering and perdition, the girl decided to run away with her sister.
But it is impossible for the magician to escape from Izeluma by not being sisters, and even if they do, they will be captured, so they need to find a home.
The first one that needs to be ruled out is the Baru Yereta. Although the lord's Enolai has a good reputation and is a good person, since she has sat on the throne of the lord of Baru Yereta, it is impossible for her to protect the two sisters, because Byron has achieved enough merits that cannot be erased.
Neither can a family that belongs to democracy, and no one will tear their faces with Baruyereta for the sake of the sisters.
Barsermelo is not afraid, but based on the mysterious value of the two sisters, I am afraid that they will inevitably be sent to the research table.
The neutral Meastia is similar, and this faction is relatively weak, rarely involved in political struggles, and is inferior to Barsermelo.
In comparison, modern magic is much better.
First of all, Weber, the master of the school, had no talent for magic and gave up early on to reach the "roots" as a magician. By taking refuge in him, at least he would have been spared the pain of being sent to the research bench for slices.
Secondly, the El Meloy Classroom is the object of competition among the various factions, and even Baruyereta will not offend Webber too much at this time, in other words, he has the ability to keep the sisters, at least to fight for them a chance to live.
All the sisters are asking for is a chance to survive without having to bear senseless pain.
If Webber doesn't accept it, they can only choose to make a political "deal" with Barsermero, exchanging intelligence for accommodation.
Everything could be explained, and the way out and exit were all found, neither Weber, who had one of the few insights in the world, nor Leenys, who was familiar with political routines, could find fault until—Flatt spoke:
"Just say yes, Professor. It's so pretty, doesn't it mean that you will give a lecture......?
"Wait, what did you just say?"
"Flatt, you say it again?"
Webber and Rhaenys seemed to have caught something, and looked at Flatt at the same time.
The boy swallowed and took a step back: "I'll let you give you a lecture in exchange—"
"yes, that's it!" Webb slapped his thigh hard, "Swap, here's the problem." ”
Looking at the others still confused, Rhaenys explained, "The El Meloy Classroom is not a charity center, and there is no need to risk offending Baruyereta to contain the sisters, unless they do have a bargaining chip worth the risk. However, until the end of the conversation, Jin Jinji did not give a bargaining chip - it is indeed a great charm, and even the elder brother can't resist it. ”
Webber sneered, "Same words for you, ma'am." ”
It is always difficult to refuse the request of a beautiful woman, not to mention a beauty like Jin Ji, who is higher than the disaster of the country and the people?
"I'm thinking from the standpoint of Jin Jinji. Rhaenys stiffened.
"Me too. However, there is another possibility, because my reply was too vague, so she didn't say the chips. ”
Yes, Weber did not directly agree to the request of the golden hime, but deduced that he wanted to confirm the idea of the silver hime.
"So my brother is going to agree to Jin Jinji's invitation?"
At the end of the conversation, Kim asked Webb to come to her room the next morning.
Webb thought for a moment and said:
"You have to figure out what they want to do so that you can deal with it. ”
