"What should we do?" Reyna almost jumped.

"Can't wait for Rogge to do it." Vanessa was pacing in the small captain's room, when suddenly, she stopped and stared into Reina's eyes, "If the exchange magic is unsolvable in this world, I will only die once!" ”

Outside the door came the sound of cups and plates falling to the ground, Vanessa rolled her eyes and motioned for Reina not to use force, "Matt, you've seen it." ”

She reached for the door, and sure enough, the prince stormed into the hatch, "You can't die!" Then he recognized Reina and was really taken aback, "You?!" He made a fighting gesture and stood in front of Vanessa, roaring, "I won't let you hurt her!" ”

Reina didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, and focused his gaze back on the princess, "Tell me you're not kidding, you know what that means." ”

"I've been working on inversion magic," said the princess, gesturing to the book on her desk, "I'm afraid no one in this world can read what is written in a book except Trent." ”

Matt was not annoyed by the ignorance of the two, on the contrary, he could see that Reiner and Vanessa knew each other very well, so familiar that he was extremely embarrassed to appear among them, he walked to the table, flipped through the book "The Complementarity of Magic", and suddenly said, "It's not difficult, I understand." ”

Vanessa and Reina both adjusted their stances, staring at the prince's face in amazement, and seeing that he was not joking, Vanessa tried to ask, "What is written on this page?" ”

"This is the Theory of Magic," Matt read as he read, "...... At the same time, the choice of the nature of magic is also the choice of the caster's position and attitude, and the function it reflects is not the will of the magic itself, and the outcome and good and evil cannot be predicted. Among the ancient mages was the principle of the conservation of strings, which was called the "principle of equivalent exchange" or "the principle of practice" by the mages. This theory holds that we are in a universe made up of strings, and that the string density never changes, and that the length of the timeline and the sum of energy and mass never change......"

"Stop," Vanessa moved a chair for Matt, "it seems that I underestimated you, from now on, you should read all the books here for me, and it is better not to blink your eyes," she pressed the prince into the chair, and said solemnly, "My life and Solanda's lives are in this pile of books, in your eyes, and if you can find a way to reverse the magic in us, I will give you a thousand kisses," Matt looked at Vanessa in surprise, she was stunned, and then smiled, "In my own form, of course." Reina glanced at the princess and did not speak, but he turned and lit all the candles, and illuminated the little cabin.

"I thought you were reading through these books in the captain's room for fun," Matt spread his hands, "why don't you tell me that you can't read them at all?" ”

Vanessa looked at Reina and thought, what am I going to tell you? The princess of the dignified country of summer is illiterate? I'm afraid that in addition to attracting ridicule, it will also attract you to chase after you and nag endlessly.

"What do these words, what pure vector, string guide," Matt frowned, "what do you mean?" Ah, it's so hard. He gave up his attachment to the part of Vanessa that he was reading, went back to the beginning to find the index, and quickly flipped the pages to rattle them.

Vanessa paced behind the Prince, her hands folded, biting her nails from time to time, and she found herself so nervous that she could barely think, "I'm almost out of breath." ”

"Don't be nervous," Reina said with his hand on the princess's shoulder, facing Solanda's skin, the most affectionate gesture an archer could make, "give him some time." ”

"Okay, tell me how you found me?" Vanessa pulled Reina to sit down on the cot.

"Rogge knew that the port of Queensland was the place for you to go to sea, so I summoned Victor with my own blood, and he said that he had just sent you out of the harbor, but I couldn't find a ship that could catch you," Rainer smiled, "thanks to Victor, who got a shipwreck for me from the bottom of the sea." ”

"You mean, he pushed you all the way to me?"

"Yes." Reyna was deeply grateful, "That's why we're so late." ”

"And where is he now?" The ship was flipped upside down by the sailors on the whal's ship, and nothing was found except barnacles and aquatic weeds attached to it.

"He said that there was news of Brant, and he swam to Crescent City without stopping."

"Brandt." Vanessa read the name, and the memory of the prince came to mind, what is he doing now? Does the last parting mean eternal decision?

"What's wrong?" Reina asked tentatively.

"Nothing," Vanessa laughed to hide her wandering, "I wonder if Brant would just eat the pages if he was pinned to a chair and let him read these books." ”

Apparently Reyna didn't think it was ridiculous, he knew about Vanessa and Brant, and accepted the prince's love for Vanessa, in other words, he knew his place and never wanted to monopolize the princess's love, but he was still very touched by Vanessa's tactful cover in front of him: she cared about her feelings and valued her opinions, which touched people's hearts more than any sweet words.

Time passed bit by bit, and before she knew it, Vanessa had recalled her entire life, counting the shortcomings and shortcomings, as well as sweetness and surprises; And Reina, who was beside him, had already slept with his bow, and his snoring was undulating.

Vanessa refilled Matt twice and brought him cool fresh water to wash his face, but the prince refused all of them, his pale face became more and more bloodless in the candlelight, and only a pair of eyes were still shining and shining on the pages.

"Reina," Matt didn't speak for a long time, his voice abruptly out of tune, "do you still have that bloodstained fragment of the magic mirror?" ”

Vanessa grabbed Reina's arm and shook him awake, "No, it's being taken by Rogge." ”

"What do you want the Magic Mirror shards for? Got a clue? The princess asked.

"I think I've figured out how the magic works of swapping mirrors," Matt rubbed his stiff shoulders, "and when it comes to string reflex guidance, if we have a fragment of the mirror stained with both you and Sorenda's blood, we can reverse the magic through a certain medium." ”

Vanessa suddenly thought of something, excitedly opened her pocket, took out an irregular lens from it, and handed it to Matt, "This, this is the fragment of the magic mirror that fell off my clothes, but I don't know if there is Sorenda's blood on it." ”

Matt took the broken lens and looked at it, shaking his head, "I can't see blood on it." ”
