Gray, Yvette and Caleb quickly left the MONOCULUS train and rushed into the depths of the Ice Forest.

Among them, Gray and Caleb are the main forces of attack and defense, and the reason why Yvette followed is because she has the magic eye made by the Lehman family, which has the ability to see through the direction of the spiritual vein, and can find the spiritual vein node in the first time, greatly reducing the redundant work, and shortening the time they stay in the ice and snow forest.

Ryusha looked at Grey's back from the window of the guest room, and there was no ripple in her heart, and the expression on her face was as good as a pool of stagnant water, as if the words she had cared about Grey before were fake.

He walked out of the room and walked towards the second room where the second was located.

Room 2.

After Luxia knocked on the door, Corres quickly opened the door for Luxia and let him into the room.

The room was heated on, but it was almost the same as nothing under the cold of the snow forest.

The second was sitting on the sofa, a cigar between his fingers, and he was still spitting fog, and he looked at the goose feather snow flying outside the window, and his eyes showed a little unwilling look.

"The disciple is working hard outside, but I can't even help at all."

The second turned his head, took a puff of his cigar, and said to Lu Xia with a bitter face: "Liangyi, do you think I'm a failure as a teacher?" ”

Before Ryusha could reply, he turned back and began to talk to himself.

"The clock tower judged that I had the talent to teach students, so all kinds of geniuses and monsters were stuffed into my classroom, but every time I saw those genius students ascend to the priesthood and the throne at a very fast speed, no one knew what was going on in my heart."

"Envy, jealousy, sometimes I even hate their talents, because they can easily do things that I can't do, my talents are very inferior, not even a percent of them, if I don't teach my students to have a hand, I don't even have a sacrifice seat, at most it's just an opening position, it's a little better than a magic apprentice."

There is no saddest teacher than this.

He pursued the path of magic, but he stagnated because of his inferior talents, and instead taught students who surpassed him one by one, and at the moment when his students surpassed him, no one knew how much of his heart was gratified and how much was envy and jealousy.

"Your heart is in turmoil."

Ryusha spoke up.

The second figure's figure paused slightly for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly, "I can see at a glance, you really have the talent to observe human beings, and as you said, I was disturbed by the words of the servant last night...... I don't usually say that. ”

Normally, he was rational enough to hide all his negative emotions in his heart, but his rational barrier was broken by the servant last night, which made him start to doubt himself.

"Do the words of the self-proclaimed Servant of Hephaestion really have this kind of magic for you?"

Ryuxia asked rhetorically: "Whether it is in the Stripping City or the Twin Appearance Tower, in my eyes, you are a very good person, very knowledgeable, logical, even more so when you were in the Clock Tower, and you are not afraid to talk to a magician whose strength is far above you, so, to be honest, I didn't expect you to be defeated by three or two sentences like this, and I even began to wonder if you were El Melo II himself." ”

This is indeed what Lucia thinks of Ermelo II.

There are not many people who can praise him, and so far, apart from the unfathomable [Two Rituals], only Ermelo II and the head of the Demon Slayer Team Yaoya Yashiki can make him think 'excellent'.

"Excellent...... Then you think too highly of me. ”

The second shook his head, lowered his head and took another puff on his cigar, "Liangyi, what do you think is growth for a person?" ”

"Surpass your old self."

"That's right, surpass yourself."

The second smiled self-deprecatingly, "Then I didn't do it at all, I was the same as ten years ago, I didn't grow at all, I was as reckless, stubborn, unaware, and self-righteous as I was then." ”

Ten years ago.

It seems to have been the time of II's last participation in the Holy Grail War, when the previous Ermelo was still alive.

However, Ryuxia didn't know much about it, so he couldn't easily speculate.

After making a lot of negative comments about himself, the second fell into silence again, and his face became extremely bitter again.

He's been in this form since last night and it's not getting any better until now.

It seems that if this incident is to be handed over to him to solve, it is somewhat unlikely.

"Grow up, ......"

Ryusha also lowered her head, and under the inner murmur, she also fell into deep thought.

"On the other hand, can my current behavior be regarded as growth?"

At this moment, Ryuxia's heart had exactly the same doubts as the second.

After he reunited with Grey, he has been playing the role of a character who meets Grey's expectations, so he will help Grey when she is troubled, and when she asks him, he will not refuse because there is no benefit, and take the initiative to stand up when Olga Marie has nothing to do.

The reason why when borrowing the Holy Spear, it is said to be a 'request' rather than a 'condition', is because whether Grey agrees to lend him the Holy Spear or not, Ryuxia intends to help her unconditionally, and the Holy Spear can only be regarded as a windfall.

His original intention was to understand and generate feelings by playing a character, and to understand his psychological change process on the day of the Shuangxiang Tower.

But after this period of time, his heart is still as unfluctuating as before, not to mention the slightest emotion, not to mention the psychological changes when he was in the Shuangxiang Tower.

This should be the same as the second, it is not any growth.

…………

More than ten minutes later.

Through the window of the guest room, Luxia, II and Corres discover that Yvette and Caleb have walked out of the snow forest together and returned to the MONOCULUS train.

After the two returned, the train roared again, and the wheels rolled slowly on the tracks.

"Wait, where's Grey?"

The second's face changed in an instant, and the decadence just now was swept away, leaving only nervousness and worry, "Grey didn't come back with them!" ”

Ryuxia's eyes narrowed slightly.

Even with his eyesight, he didn't see Grey from the ice and snow forest.

"Liangyi!"

The second did not hesitate, and made a serious request to Ryuxia at the first time, "I won't go out easily, and that servant shouldn't easily start a war with the MONOCULUS train, so Gray will ask you!" ”

"I see."

Ryusha nodded, then stepped forward, opened the window of the train, and jumped directly through the window before the train accelerated further, and rushed into the snow forest in the distance.
