31. Try your best

Austin looked at Wataru in front of him, and lost his mind for a moment, but reacted in an instant.

"Did you change your clothes?"

In the final analysis, if it was Wataru who usually changed his clothes or not, let alone whether Austin cared about it or not, he couldn't even see it.

God knows when Wataru got into the habit of wearing a cloak. He wears a black cloak all day long, and even if he changes the cloak, it is estimated that Austin will not be able to see it.

After all, the cloak without any pattern looked natural and did not have any memorable features.

But today, Wataru changed his cloak into a black trench coat and stood in front of Austin. This is also the reason why Austin lost his mind.

Although the overall gap is not large, Austin did not expect to take off the cloak that seemed to grow on his body.

"Yes, this is not just a lecture, I also want to touch that Karp as the king.

He had previously rejected my offer to invite him to become a special investigator. So I want to try to reach out to him in another capacity for a while.

It wouldn't be nice if I was recognized. ”

Austin looked at Wataru in front of him and shook his head helplessly.

"I think you might as well wear your old cloak."

Austin unhurriedly pulled out a poster that depicted a black cloak with red hair, directing the swift dragon's crossing.

"This kind of poster depicts you wearing a black cloak, and with your popularity, I think the cloak on your body is already a symbol-like thing, and if you change it deliberately, it will be suspected."

Listening to Austin's words, Wataru nodded and sighed helplessly.

"That's true—but when I approached him as a special investigator, I wore a black cloak and used a fast dragon.

Ah, how could I be so careless! ”

Austin looked at Wataru in distress and smiled slightly.

"I don't think you need to worry so much, if that kid Karp really has the same intelligence as you say, he will always recognize you after a while of contact with you.

So, I don't think it's helpful for you to hide your identity. ”

Wataru heard Austin's words and nodded.

"So, I don't plan to contact him for a long time, and I will still contact him as a black-robed special search officer when the time comes.

It's just that as the king of heaven, he lowered his guard.

After all, I can hear that he is still quite resistant to becoming a special search officer. ”

Hearing Wataru's voice, Austin slowly opened his narrowed eyes.

"Still, you just have to let that kid Karp know what a special investigator is.

If he doesn't want to, you can't do anything special, boy.

That's our academy students, after all, and I don't want my students to be forced to do something they didn't want to do.

Did you know? ”

Wataru looked at Austin, who suddenly became serious in front of him, and followed suit.

"Don't worry, I just want him to know what a special investigator is.

I just want him to follow me on a few missions and get to know his personality.

If he is still not interested in the special investigator by then, even if it takes a long time to find an heir, I will not bother him again.

After all - if everything is clear, it is his choice from the heart.

I don't have the right to get in the way of a trainer following the path he chooses. ”

......

And Karp didn't know about this at the moment.

He just followed Daigo and Kona towards the venue of the Heavenly King's lecture, and thought about Wataru or the black-robed Heavenly King.

He had felt that the black-robed Heavenly King would not give up so easily, and then he refused once on the rooftop, would he come to contact him again as the Heavenly King this time?

Karp wasn't sure, or what Wataru would think.

If it were a person like Daigo at this time, it would probably be a soldier to block it and the water to cover it.

However, Karp is a very planned person, and an unexpected situation at this time makes him a little uncomfortable.

"Hey, Karp-san, are you listening?"

Just as Karp was thinking, Kona, who was beside her, called out to him for an unknown number of times.

At this moment, the three of them were crowded in the crowd, Daigo walked in the front, and Kona was by Karp's side. Maybe it's because the Heavenly King doesn't come to the Celestial King's lecture in the Elf Academy, so many people get together in a small group, and it's the same with Karp.

Daigo was a little far away from the person in front of him, but he was very close to the two of them. And Kona is the same - a little away from the others, very close to Karp.

A girl's scent passed through, and with the intellectual voice of Shang Kona, Karp also reacted.

"Oh, sorry, I was a little distracted just now - what's the problem?"

While responding, Karp also sighed at the quality of these students in the Elf Academy.

Everyone consciously lowered their voices so that other small groups could also communicate. Although there was a little noise around, it wasn't very noisy, and it wouldn't affect his communication with Kona and Daigo.

This may be a relatively novel experience for Karp, which makes him stop thinking about the crossing for the time being.

"I'm just curious, is Karp-san's acquaintance with King Watana?"

Karp listened to Kona's question, didn't think about it, and gave the answer directly.

"Not familiar."

Then Karp's eyes fell on Kona.

"Why, you're interested in the Heavenly King?"

Kona nodded, and then he didn't know if it was an illusion or something else, Karp always felt that there was something else hidden behind Kona's intellectuality.

"I'm interested, I want to defeat that 'invincible dragon messenger in the world'."

Thinking of this, Kona's eyes also became a lot hotter.

After all, Wataru was a dragon trainer, but since he became the king, the other challengers couldn't beat him with even a team of ice types.

That's why it came out - the name of the invincible dragon messenger in the world.

Someone even said that the dragon of the crossing is not afraid of ice such rumors. For Kona, a trainer specializing in ice science, he will indeed be an opponent he wants to challenge.

It's a pity that every time she says something like this, she will be sarcastically or implicitly:

'That's the King of Heaven, you can't defeat him.' ’

I think it's a good idea to change your goal. ’

But even so, she still had to say it, because she didn't feel ashamed to say her goal, so this time she was also prepared to be ridiculed and ridiculed.

Karp, however, just smiled at her.

"Defeat Wataru, if it's you, you can do it sooner or later."

Kona was stunned, she could tell Karp wasn't trying to tell her, he was telling the truth.

"Do you think I can do it?"

Karp was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Kona's expression and understood a little.

"Of course."

"Don't you think I'm dreaming?"

Listening to Kona's inquiry again, Karp became a little more serious.

"If you don't even dare to dream, then you won't have much achievement."

As he spoke, Karp turned his back to the sun, which was gradually setting from the midday sky, and from Kona's point of view, it shone especially in the crowd.

"So, for the sake of the goal and for yourself, work hard."

Looking at Karp like this, listening to his voice, the corners of Kona's mouth also raised a slight arc, and his eyes returned to his usual intellect again. But if you feel it carefully, you can see that she is much happier than before.

"Of course."
