Fast forward to late August, another month after the Midsummer Festival incident in the Imperial Capital, and the Tolz Military Academy was operating as usual, except for the addition of two new members to Class VIII. The transfer students who have been inserted by the directors and the bigwigs for various reasons, the members of the Iron Blood, the White Rabbit Miriam, and the second-year student Chloe make the VIII. class, which is already as complex as this country, even more complicated. Just like the seemingly calm Erebonian Empire, countless undercurrents and forces are all gathered in this small class.

"I'm so sorry Instructor Ike, but I'm going to trouble you to invite me to dinner."

In the middle of the night, Ryne, who had finished his practice, was walking out of the restaurant with Ike.

"It's not a big deal, anyway, it's rainy by the way, although Sharon may make you a supper, but most of them won't give it to me, it's better to go out to eat more conveniently." Ike replied indifferently, "After all, I left you behind." ”

"No, if you can help me practice, I just want to say I am grateful." Li En hurriedly replied, "But Instructor Ike and Miss Sharon seem to have a really good relationship." ”

"Well, I've known each other for many years. Although the guy spoke a little hurtful. ”

"That's just for Instructor Ike, you...

"But, Lyon." Ike suddenly looked at Lane seriously, "You... Forget it, if I open my mouth, the next thing is trouble. Anyway, tomorrow's internship location is Graylam, where there may be someone more suitable to remind you. ”

"What Instructor Ike said is... Laura's father? Riene, who didn't notice what Ike was saying, asked.

"After all, I can only teach you the basics and instincts of fighting, and the real sword skills are more convincing if you are made up of the 'Swordsman of Light'." Ike shrugged: "I don't know if that guy will teach you, though." ”

"The swordsmith of light ... I've always heard of it from my master, and it's said to be the strongest 'Sword Saint' in the Empire, right? Li replied wistfully.

"Not really, but considering the low-key nature of the Fandel family, that's true." Ike replied.

"Oops? Who are you... ”

A clear voice suddenly sounded on the way. A woman with glasses walked directly in front of the two and looked at Lane for a moment, "Aren't you a student of Class VIII of the Military Academy?" Do you want to come out and eat at such a time?"

"That's right." Dawn was a little dazed." Hey? Why do you know I'm Class VIII? ”

"Of course it's because I know this guy next to you." The woman pointed at Ike with some smugness and replied, "Besides, your affairs are also famous in the Buzzing Bureau." Crimson uniforms - newly formed classes at the Military Academy. ”

"Instructor Ike knows... Li En quietly glanced at Ike, who was originally expressionless, but at the moment there was a rare trace of unknown vigilance in his usual expression... with jealousy.

"yes, we're old friends, aren't we?" The woman tiptoed slightly and patted Ike on the shoulder in reply.

"If I can, I don't really want to know each other." Ike replied.

"Here it is again, and here it is." The woman whispered in front of Rien, "This guy has no resistance to his beautiful older sister, how can it be worth teasing?" ”

"I don't think so... Li En smiled slightly bitterly, and was suddenly stunned, "Huh? How does it feel like I've heard your voice again? ”

"Wow, isn't it possible that you're listening?" The woman was a little surprised, then cleared her voice, and her expression became quite serious, "Good night, listeners listening to the radio." The weather is getting hotter and hotter, how are you doing? Broadcast this program to listeners tonight in this park in Talitos – or that? ”

"Huh?!!! Is it 'the time of the starry night'?。。。 Miss Missy?! ”

"Hehe, that's right." Misty seemed to be quite happy and replied, "I can actually notice from the voice, it seems that you are quite a loyal listener~ Sister is so happy." ”

“。。。。。。”

"What's the matter, I'm going to be shy if you keep staring like that." Mysti looked at Ike staring at her suspiciously, a look of innocence in her eyes.

"No, though I'm surprised you're Miss Missy. However, I have noticed ... Well, have we ever met? Li En replied uncertainly, "In the hotel of the imperial capital." ”

“！ Hahaha! After a brief moment of surprise, Missy burst out laughing, "I surrendered, I didn't expect anyone to notice." ”

"Sure enough! You're Miss Vita Clott, right? Known as the song of the cang... ”

"It's the correct answer again~ It seems that this student of yours is quite perceptive, just like you." Misty looked at it and Ike replied, "Obviously, everyone in the Broadcasting Bureau didn't notice it, it's a shame that you can see it~"

"No, nothing, just a sudden thought." Li En scratched his head embarrassedly, and then he was a little puzzled, "But... Why is it in the broadcasting office in Tolista? ”

"Hehe, just a little mood-changing entertainment." Misty replied, "Please keep it a secret for me~"

"That's fine. But didn't you really notice it? Lane was incredulous.

"Hehe, there's a secret to this." Misty suddenly took off her eyes and leaned in front of Rien, her purple pupils looking at Rien, "Although I think about it, I seem to have seen this face somewhere... I see—it's 'you' ... ”

"W-That?!" Rien took a step back in a bit of a panic.

"I'm sorry for the sudden rush to come up." Missy put on her glasses, "But it's not too late, you should be able to go back alone, right?" ”

"Of course ... Hey? ”

"The instructor and you suddenly want to have a secret meeting with adults~" Missy blinked, deliberately came to Ike's side and took Ike's hand and walked to the side, "Then, help me say hello to those two~"

。。。。。。

"I didn't expect you to take the initiative to stop me, just treat each other as if you didn't know each other?"

"Ah, I'm not like some people who have no reason to come to a friend's house and don't say hello."

"When did this become your home?" Ike rolled his eyes, "Take 10,000 steps back, isn't it also in the imperial capital to set up a stronghold?" What's that, 'Aono Singer'"

"Huh? Do you have any grievances about this? Justi smiled.

"No, I just think it's a good title for you." Ike raised his hand in surrender, "I guess you hired someone to spread it." ”

"Ah, it seems you don't like your title? Riding a gun~ How about my sister help you change it? Misty teased.

"Excuse me, although your aesthetics are really good, but your personality is too bad, so please allow me to refuse." Ike sighed and said righteously.

"It's a man who is rude, a woman will tease a man, which means that she pays attention to this man~" Misty replied pretending to be sad.

"Then you'd better keep your eyes on Lévy." Ike shrugged, "I'm afraid that my small body can't stop your love, the abyss." ”

“。。。 Speaking of Levy, you seem to have kidnapped him too. Missy ignored Ike's accentuated tone and spoke.

"The person who can abduct the Sword Emperor is afraid that there will be no one except the teacher." Ike rolled his eyes again, "If you think about him like this, why don't you give up this plan and go to him?" ”

"Hehe, you seem to know a lot about this plan?" Misty replied with a smile on her face.

"So-so. After all, you've spread the Phantom Flame Project so big, aren't you worried about missing out? Ike muttered.

"Of course, there are risks that come with planning. It's just that what I care more about is the profit behind the risk. Misty smiled, "I'm a witch, I'm used to taking risks and everything, but your joining did surprise me, from Liber to Crossbell and finally to Erebonia. What is your purpose? Little Ike. ”

"Tell me about your plans?" Ike raised an eyebrow.

"Oh? That depends on your answer. Missy replied with a slight surprise.

"The answer is obvious." Ike sneered, "Whether it's Liber, or the Republic." Crossbell, or Erebonia, the song of the times has begun, and in this maelstrom that you first blow, all of them are not for one thing. ”

"—Changing the world in these turbulent times to come."

。。。。。。

"I'm back。。。。。。 Finish? ”

Pushing open the door, looking at Arisa who was looking at her with menacing eyes and smiling, and then at Rien who was sitting firmly on the side, Emma and Laura were standing behind her, and sighed slightly, "Judging from this posture, it is probably Emma who found out that there was something wrong with Rien and spread it to other people's ears without paying attention, right?" ”

"I'm very sorry, my nose is a little more sensitive than others, and I accidentally smelled the same perfume smell on Rien-san's body as Instructor Ike's, and Laura and Arissa happened to be nearby." Emma replied 'sorry'.

"That's why I said it was just an acquaintance, an acquaintance of Instructor Ike." Once again, Lane defended.

"Do you have anything to say? Ai~Ke~? ”

"Would you believe me if I said I ran into Vita Clody on the road?"

"I don't believe it." The three of them spoke in unison. "That famous Cangzhi singer, how could it be here at this time."

"So I said I was asked by her not to say it." Dawn pleaded.

"Really?" Ike took out a small stack of opera tickets from his arms, and replied with some regret, "Really, I was originally happy to share some tickets because I met with acquaintances and heard that my students were her fans, but now it seems that they are going to be wasted." ”
