Chapter IX Decisions

"Hmm." Monica replied shyly, blushing.

"It's... This... I didn't mean to take advantage of you—" Ivan nervously leaned his face towards Monica.

Just as she was about to kiss her, Monica shouted, "Wait a minute! ”

The sound almost scared Ivan out of his chair.

"Dry... What are you doing! ”

"People are still a little shy, or you just close your eyes and kiss again!"

"That's right..."

Ivan didn't like to close his eyes, because the darkness of his childhood experiences made him feel very insecure. However, in front of the beauty, Ivan's reason had already been thrown out of the nine heavenly clouds, and he closed his eyes according to the words.

Ivan felt his heart pounding violently again and again, and there was a feeling that he might just pop out of his chest at any moment. Imagining Monica's delicate lips, Ivan trembled with excitement.

Slowly, slowly, Ivan seemed to be able to feel the heat of Monica's exhalation.

Ivan felt his lips touch a cold object, not very soft, even a little smooth.

Huh? Is this what a woman's lips smell like? It felt weird, thinking secretly, Ivan sucked hard a few times.

When I opened my eyes, I found Monica holding a map in her hand, and then looked at herself with some amusement.

"Hmph, little pervert, my sister was just joking with you, but she took it seriously. Hurry up and recruit me truthfully, have you been thinking about how to make me light? The smile on the corner of his mouth can feel the pride of anyone who looks at it.

Tricked again... I knew I shouldn't have believed what this woman said...

Women can't be trusted!

Ivan's face was like eating bitter melon, and he didn't have much to argue, anyway, this woman must have figured out how to tease herself next.

Monica saw that Ivan ignored herself, and she didn't want to be bored, and raised the map in her hand.

"According to the news from the intelligence dealers in the Dark Forest, this island in the middle of the lake with dragon heart grass seems to be a high-level maze realm, with its own laws, those with high strength will be denied entry there, and mercenaries with low strength can move freely in it."

Ivan's eyes lit up, if those high-level mercenaries and adventurers couldn't directly fight for the dragon heart grass because of the maze itself, he still had some hope.

"This is a map to the island in the middle of the lake, and the location with your lip print on the map is your destination."

"Thank you, big sister."

"It's nothing, little pervert, after all, you also made my sister laugh for a while."

Ivan didn't know what to say, so he hurried away from this goblin so as not to be tricked again.

Looking at Ivan's back as he left the "Scarlet Rose", Monica restrained her smile, and her face returned to the coldness she had just now.

"Eugenia, get ready, we may already be watched."

Monica's expression was like a cold winter, and her eyes were full of wind and snow.

......

Ivan returned to the slums, by which time Hill and Stern had already distributed the potion to the seriously ill. He looked at these scenes and sighed heavily, this place was already targeted by death. I have no power to change all this, just like the day my mother died, I can only watch the disease torment these poor people. The humble medicinal decoction could only serve as a suppressive effect, and there was no cure without the help of an authentic apothecary or the praise of the Radiant Sanctuary, which they could not have hoped for.

Ivan had become accustomed to going to the Dark Forest at certain times to gather herbs and bring them back to boil them, which were then distributed by Ciel to those who were afflicted by illness. But almost no one in the people believed in Ivan, a child of the demon race, and didn't even want or dare to contact him, so he could only ask Hill, which also made Hill's popularity in this area very good.

It's night...

Ivan and Ciel walked quietly down the path of the school of witchcraft and wizardry, and Stern returned to the dormitory early, apparently with a new breakthrough.

The evening breeze blew across the cheeks of the two, and Ivan spoke: "There are still fewer herbs this time, and I am afraid that many people will die in the slums this winter." ”

Hill was still silent, and although she scoffed at the thoughts of these residents, in the end, she was still a kind girl, and with her young age, she would still feel sympathy for these people from the bottom of her heart.

"So, I'm planning to visit the Dark Forest again in the near future."

Hill glanced at Ivan, "When?" ”

"It's tomorrow, I've already told Andrea."

"Then I..."

"You stay here, I'll be back soon."

"Oh."

"Well, you're staying here.... Huh? What the? ”

Ivan, who had thought it would take a lot of effort to convince Ciel, looked at Ciel in disbelief.

Is it so easy?

This is really not like her usual style, and Ivan is full of doubts that need answers.

Hill suddenly ran forward, and Ivan froze and immediately chased after him.

It took Ivan a while before he caught up with Ciel, out of breath.

When he looked up, Ivan couldn't help but be stunned by the sight in front of him.

At night, a new moon is rising, and the bright light and the quiet night complement each other, and the bright moonlight and the tranquility at this time make people intoxicated.

What is even more remarkable is the girl standing quietly by the lake under the moonlight, the evening breeze mixed with the girl's body fragrance, and the moonlight caresses the girl's soft face, as if it is a picture-like scene.

Ivan stared blankly at Hill in front of him, and at this moment Ivan was just fascinated by it, as if the slightest thought in his mind was a blasphemy of this picture.

Friendly reminder: Hill is only 14 years old!

The next morning, Ivan was ready to set off early, and it was an unknown journey for him, but he was glad that Hill did not accompany him on the adventure.

"You really don't need me to go with you?"

Hill doesn't know how many times he can't help but bring up this question.

Ivan touched Ciel's head and said with a smile: "It's okay this time, it's just to pick a few medicinal herbs, it's all old places, no problem." “

"Then you have to be careful!"

"Well, I will."

After saying that, Ivan picked up his backpack and set off in the direction of the Dark Forest without looking back.
