A night full of thoughts, early the next morning, all the people of Class VIII., who had already gotten up, gathered outside the gate of the Viscount's Mansion after breakfast, yawning from time to time, and the amount of information last night made it a little difficult for them to sleep.

"Haven't heard from Instructor Ike yet?" Ryne asked, looking at Arissa.

"Not really." Alyssa shook her head, "No one responded to the communicator, and the butler said he didn't come back last night." ”

"Something is going to happen."

“。。。 I don't think so. After thinking for a moment, Rien shook his head, "Instructor Ike, he... It seems to know that figure.,And from the point of view of her saving us.,There should be no hostility.,The only thing left is... ”

"The owner of that 'knight's spear'..."

"That must be 'Saint Sandrot' can't be wrong." Laura replied, "She reached out and saved us from the crisis in the face of that change." ”

"Hmm—it's hard to believe, after all, it's a pretty old character." Alyssa was skeptical. "And judging by Ike's reaction, it should be someone I know, right?"

"But there's no other explanation for it now." Lane replied.

"I always feel that what happened last night was all a dream." Emma whispered.

“。。。。。。”

All eyes looked at Emma, and after a moment of silence, Jusis was the first to speak, "... Are you qualified to say that? ”

"Huh? Ahh Emma smiled a little reluctantly, and quickly changed the topic, "That's right, you know?" In fact, it is rumored that the day of the death of the saint is approaching. And last night was a full moon again, so even if she did, it wouldn't be surprising. ”

“。。。 There is indeed such a legend about the death of the saint. Knowing that Emma deliberately diverted the topic, Laura still answered.

"Hmm~ So, last night's squad leader's big activity, what the hell is going on?" Miriam didn't seem to intend to let Emma go, and asked with a suspicious expression on her face. "I always feel that there is no way to explain what it means to use a saint alone."

"That, that... Because of my grandmother's relationship, I know a little bit about curses. Emma hurriedly replied, "I actually tried to deal with the enchantment, and it went unexpectedly well~"

"Is that really the case?"

"Actually, it's still hard to let go."

Tick tick tick –

As he spoke, the guide on Alyssa's waist glowed red, and she hurriedly removed the guide device, and after a short contact, a somewhat angry Alyssa stomped her foot and put down the guide device.

"That... Did Instructor Ike say anything? Judging by the expression, you don't need to ask to know whose contact it is, Lane asked from the side.

"He told us to go first, and he came later." Still a little angry, Alyssa replied, "Really, I always like to say goodbye so much!" ”

"Maybe something happened to Instructor Ike, it has something to do with that guy last night." Li En thought for a while and replied, then shook his head, "Anyway, since Instructor Ike said so, we'd better leave as soon as possible, and join Group B, if we arrive late, probably Instructor Sarah will be angry too." ”

After glancing at each other, and having no objections, they said goodbye to Klaus, who had been delivered all the way to the gate, and walked briskly towards the station.

。。。。。。

Meanwhile, on the outskirts of Regram, Ike sat on the grass, placing his sword on his knees and closing his eyes in contemplation.

"Sword Zen. The ancient skills of the East, I didn't expect you to use them too. Beside him, Arian Heard, dressed in huge silver-white armor, spoke in a little surprise.

"Someone in the East passed it on to me, although I can't understand all of it, but it is really useful in understanding the sword intent." With his eyes closed, Ike opened his eyes, stuck his sword in the ground, and stood up.

"Greed is not a good path, although the way of your strength is special, but if you don't reach the realm, it will undoubtedly distract your spirit." Arian Heard replied.

"I've known this for a long time, but I know it, how can actual actions always go smoothly." Ike replied a little helplessly, "It's like a teacher who doesn't know how to drink and still comes here to drink,"

Not far from the two of them, two wine bottles were placed on the grass, Arian Hurd's alcohol was not large, less than half a bottle of alcohol could fall to the ground and fall asleep, but he specially ran to this place to drink, if there was no special reason, Ike didn't believe it.

"Let's miss the past a little. On this day. Arian Hurd replied calmly, stretching her body, wearing armor and sleeping all night, she was also embarrassed at the moment, "It's really good to have a disciple, you can sleep with confidence." ”

"Am I just a guard?" Ike was helpless, "Teacher, are you going to go to Crossbell next?" ”

“。。。 No," replied Arian Hurd, "at least not now." ”

“。。。 I understand. Ike nodded.

"What's wrong? With that kind of expression? Looking at Ike with a complicated expression, Arian Hurd turned his face sideways, "Are you still thinking about the past?" ”

"How come, I know the reasons and reasons, even if I had a problem in my heart at the time, after so long, and now I can meet the teacher, it is enough." Ike shook his head.

"That's the only time you can see that you've grown up." Arian Hurd chuckled and picked up the helmet that was on the ground, "In that case, you should have something to do next, right?" ”

"Well, I'm going to the fortress."

"Fortress ... Although you are a battle-hardened veteran, there is no mystery to the battlefield for you. However, watch out for the Pyro, he's always looking for you. ”

"I don't want to meet him face-to-face if I can, especially with the teacher." Ike replied, "But if you do, you can only do it with all your might, right?" ”

“。。。。。。” Silently put on the helmet, the soft eyes that were still mixed with it disappeared, and the cold eyes disappeared from Ike's sight after one last glance.

After bowing deeply in the direction where Arian Hurd disappeared, his face was in a daze for a long time, he exhaled heavily, and turned his head to look in the direction of Regram, the humid air in the early morning had not yet dispersed, the slightly sweet smell of grass permeated the surroundings, and a few birdsongs came from time to time, everything seemed so peaceful. And Ike, who turned a blind eye to everything, smiled self-deprecatingly, glanced around without focus, closed his eyes, and twitched his nose slightly, "Next, is it finally here... Sometimes I really hate my own perception.,Even this remote countryside.,I can feel it from beginning to end.。。。 ”

"The breath of war."
