Chapter 39: Emma's Secret

"It's too risky!" In front of the coffee table in the hall on the first floor, where Instructor Sarah likes to drink beer alone, Emma is whispering to someone in the dark No, it can't be said that it is completely in the dark, because something between Emma's palms is glowing slightly. And in the faint light of the night, the shadow of a cat flickered, "If that trial hurts an innocent person"

"I told you it was impossible. My mother-in-law had long said that trials would never have affected unrelated people. Didn't you hear them say that the big guy never attacked the girl? The black cat said nonchalantly, "Emma, you're too indecisive...... If it goes on like this, let alone catch up with Vita, even if it's a task from my mother-in-law's side."

"I've always taken the mission to heart! But you, Serenu, are not allowed to do such a thing again? Emma was angry, apparently angered by the nonchalant attitude of the black cat named Serenu, "If there is a next time, I will write to my mother-in-law and ask her to bring you back." ”

“…… Okay, okay, I got it. It seemed that he wanted to open his mouth to refute something, but with the cat's excellent eyesight, Serenu still saw the stubborn expression on Emma's face, and had to admit defeat, "But you also need to pay more attention yourself...... Time is already tight. If you can't get the Activator awakened soon......"

The rest of the sentence was not continued. But Emma clearly understood, and the sadness reappeared on her face.

"Alright...... It's not too early. You're going to have a break tomorrow, right? After a moment of silence, the black cat took a graceful step, "I'll leave here first and find a place to live." You...... Alas, be careful. ”

With that, Serenu jumped out of the window and walked out into the lawn deep into the night.

"Alas......" Serenu left, leaving Emma alone and left her alone, for a long time, with a long sigh.

"What is it that makes the squad leader think so much?" Suddenly having a mischievous mind, Heliga deliberately put his lips to Emma's ear and whispered. The magic he had been unfurling his shadow cloak had been eavesdropping on the two of them, to be exact, a man and a cat, until he was sure that Serenu had gone far and would not be back tonight.

Originally, he just wanted to pretend to come down to find water to drink, but he happened to encounter a situation. But for some reason, he suddenly had a mischievous mentality, wanting to see how frightened Emma looked.

"Ahh Sure enough, Emma let out a high-pitched exclamation, but then her mouth was covered tightly behind her back by a pair of hands.

"Calm down...... Don't wake everyone up. Helriga whispered, and then released a magic light spell from his other hand. The ball of light that emitted a silvery-white light floated slowly in the center of the room, and with the much brighter light, Emma saw the shadow of Heliga, and her eyes were full of incredulity.

"Have you calmed down? That's good. Perhaps because it was an acquaintance in the class who made this abrupt move, Emma's vigilance was lowered a lot. After making sure that Emma would not let out that out-of-control shout again, Hyliga also let go of the hand that restrained Emma.

"Letting your guard down? Well? Heliga chuckled, "Shouldn't the witches know how to use soundproof enchantments?" ”

"You ......," Emma's surprise was even greater, "how do you know?"

"Not only do I know that you are a member of the witch clan, but I also know that the black cat was your messenger and you came here on a mission...... In other words, your elder has given you the task of finding and training a Rider Initiator and guiding him to complete the centuries-old war of reincarnation and fate. Right? ”

"Why do you know this?" Emma was very strange, and the curiosity in her heart was more than surprise at this moment, "This should be ......"

"Should it be top secret? Right. Heliga chuckled, "yes...... Roselia ...... That's what I said. ”

"You...... Are you an acquaintance of your mother-in-law? Emma covered her mouth in surprise, a name that not everyone could know.

"Ah...... Let's take it a long way. Heliga muttered, although this was not the case, it was necessary to keep Emma in awe of herself for a short time, so that it would be more convenient to say, "During the day I tried to break the gate where the huge stone statue was closed...... Your elders intervened to stop me. ”

"I see...... Was it my mother-in-law's secret method at that time? Emma was relieved to understand some strange phenomena when Heliga used her power in the afternoon on the fourth basement floor, and the slight breath she felt from her mother-in-law, but in this way, the clever Emma noticed another thing: "But that means that mother-in-law acquiesces that you can destroy that gate......"

"It's easy." Heliga smiled a deliberately contrived scorn, which was indeed what it was. It doesn't even need the power of the dragon's roar, it only needs the magic energy to gather to a certain level to be able to directly penetrate the seemingly impregnable gate.

"......" Emma was noncommittal, but apparently all the evidence pointed to this, and she had no reason not to believe it.

"Alright...... Don't be nervous. I heard all of your conversations just now...... It seems that your demon acted against your will because he was eager for quick success, right? ”

“…… Oh, yes. Emma looked down, "But...... I am also responsible for ignoring Rien's sister......"

"If only you had that heart...... I'll just assume that I haven't seen it for the time being. If you have the opportunity in the future, you should apologize to him yourself. Heliga nodded, and from the conversation just now, Heliga could also hear that Emma was not bad in nature, but she was not mature in every sense, how similar she was to herself back then.

I am a typical mentality, development is better than strength, but no matter what ambition it is, it needs strength as the foundation. As a witch, Emma's strength is obviously not as good as her mother-in-law, nor is she as good as the Vita they mentioned several times in their chat.

Regardless, for the name of Vita, Helliga has heard of it.

According to Levi's previous statement, the second apostle of the Society, Vita Clotide, has accepted the orders of the Alliance Master to participate in the next step of Orpheus's plan. The next place for Levy to take action is the Erebonian Empire.

Crossbell's actions were like some kind of preparation for the Empire's side, and this was Heliga's first impression.

And now, Heliga has finally seized the opportunity to ask the reason behind this, as well as the information of the possible enemy.

It's just that as soon as he opened his mouth, an unexpected result happened
