After listening to Bill's words, Ellie's expression changed amazingly, is it okay to let the second grader go to the competition......? But looking at the eyes of the other teachers, it seems that they agree with this matter, but ...... Ellie remembered what Hylis had said to her again.

"Melina said that in the last competition, there was a student from Tlairel who had a leg blown off by magic during the competition......"

Blown up...... Broken...... Finish......

Suddenly, the image of a person holding a broken thigh squeaking and screaming appeared in his mind, the miserable white bones at the fracture, the bright red blood all over the ground, and the heart-rending scream...... The result is an extremely miserable picture......

"I, I refuse." Ellie answered Bill's question with some trembling.

Bill listened to Ellie's words, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he turned to the teachers and said, "Look, I knew that Ellie would definitely refuse......" Before he finished speaking, Bill's body suddenly froze, "Wait, you refused?" ”

Ellie nodded.

"You actually refused!" If there was a table next to it, Bill felt like he would smash it with one palm, which was not the same as saying yes!

Bill's sudden scream frightened Ellie, and in the face of Bill's loud questioning, Ellie, who had come back to her senses, nodded slightly again.

"Oh my God, this ...... This...... Well, tell me, why did you refuse? Bill eased his mood, he couldn't figure it out, there were countless people who wanted to participate in the competition, and the application for admission to the competition in the past few days had almost buried the teachers alive, but when he came to the girl, he refused without thinking about it?

"This ...... That ...... "Ellie didn't know how to say it, could it be because she was afraid of breaking her leg?" I can't say anything anyway...... However, with so many teachers here, it would be better to explain the reason.

Actually, she still wants to participate in the competition, but first, she is really afraid of getting hurt, and second, she has to find a way to treat Xilis.

"I'm just a priest, I don't have much fighting power, can the dean find someone else?" Seeing Bill's frantic look, Ellie said cautiously.

"Ellie, I actually think you're a good fit." Douglas, who was sitting next to Ellie, laughed and interjected, "You can just use your fist to break the magic stone and flatten those bastard boys from the other houses." ”

"Well, I don't seem to be as good as you say......" Ellie whispered, she had listened to Catherine's advice to test her strength, and she hadn't asked anyone else to keep it secret, and she didn't think the teacher knew anything strange about it, but she didn't seem to have broken the test stone.

Bill stroked his forehead, looking like I didn't even look at it, who rumored that Ellie was easy to talk to, didn't this refuse, if I let me know who it was, I would definitely kill him, Bill thought depressedly, he thought that Ellie would agree because it was his dean's request, but he touched a nail, looking at the expressions of the teachers around him who were watching the show, and couldn't help but sigh, hey, this nail really hurts, and his head is already bleeding.

"Well, in that case......" Bill felt compelled to come up with a trump card.

……

The sun shone through the leaves, casting dappled light and shadows on the ground, and the gusts of wind blew like a flowing spring. The leaves rubbed against each other, making a rustling sound, and the fallen leaves broke away from the branches and fell down in curls, mischievously sticking to a girl's hair.

Nina reached out and plucked the leaf from the top of Ellie's head and played with it in her hand.

"Is it okay?" Nina and Ellie sit with their backs to the trunk of a tree, and Ellie finally agrees to Bill's request to participate in the Triwizard Tournament, but Nina can see that Ellie looks a little reluctant, so she asks.

"Hmm." Ellie whispered yes.

"Don't force it, I can ask the dean to cancel this decision."

"It's okay!" Ellie refused in a panic after hearing this, "I may be a little scared, I'll get over it, so...... It's okay. ”

"Don't worry, Randall and I will protect you." Nina comforted the girl, she knew what the girl was afraid of.

In this world, it is rare for someone like Ellie to be afraid of being hurt, because the people of Elmont have lived in a world where magic and Warcraft exist since birth, and adventures in the wild not only enrich their lives and wallets, but also bring danger to their lives, which is not acceptable to people like Ellie who live in a peaceful world, and the girl did not think that she would be seriously injured at all, which was something that Hillis inadvertently reminded her, so the girl who was not very brave was instantly timid when Bill said that she would be allowed to compete.

Ellie looked at her hands, the pure white lace gloves fit her arms perfectly, which was conjured with magic power, and she could hide her hands that would turn red after using her abilities, but she had hardly used those abilities, and even swordsmanship was just used for cooking.

My best thing now is swordsmanship, and I use it every day. The girl thought to herself, laughing at herself. What did you choose these abilities for in the first place? It's because of Linka's words, she said that the world is full of hidden dangers. If you want to protect yourself and your sister, you need to have the ability to protect yourself, so I made a wish to get these powerful abilities, but I didn't get familiar with them, and I wasted these abilities in vain. Because of his weakness and cowardice, he has only great power but will not use it, and Linka has disappeared because of himself.

"I ...... I don't want to be a burden to others anymore. Ellie said something abruptly that Nina didn't understand.

"My combat power is not very high, and the attack magic taught by Teacher Bella is not half as powerful as other students, no matter how much I learn, but my auxiliary magic is indeed the best among them, although my martial arts are not very powerful, but it should be possible to barely protect myself, which is why Dean Bill asked me to compete."

"I don't want people to get hurt because of me anymore, I want to protect others, I want to help you, but ......" Ellie's hands clenched into fists, looking very unwilling.

"Ellie." Nina took Ellie's little hand, rubbed her head, and soothed her: "No need to be presumptuous, Ellie is better than most people, Ellie's healing magic is very powerful, believe in yourself, me, Ellie and Randall, we will be, the best combination." ”

It seemed that what Nina said had an effect, and Ellie was no longer depressed, "I...... Yes. ”

"No problem, just work hard." Nina said. "I'm sure Ellie can."

"Well, I'll try." The girl clenched a fist and put it on her chest to cheer herself up, "There is still half a month, I will definitely double my practice of magic, and I will definitely not drag you back when the time comes." ”

A smile also tugged at the corner of Nina's mouth, "Well, come on." ”

PS: I've been getting lazier lately......
