Chapter 4: The Stalker and the Hidden Arrow
"Anomaly Magic Research Department, this is the club that Edith guy created. One afternoon, she grabbed me at the gate of the academy and told me a lot of what was and didn't. ”
"My magic has always been a shortcoming, and I thought that I might be able to improve my level by going in and talking to other people."
"After I went in, I found that I only got together a total of five people from this small club, two men and three women, and I made up enough people to apply for the club."
"Another boy, we might as well call him Mr. Y, the opposite of my bad character is that this Mr. Y is a perfect good old man, how to say, it's almost the type of person who goes to the soup for girls."
"So I found out that this anomalous magic research department doesn't study magic much, but revolves around that Y-kun, so I don't plan to go."
"And then?"
"And then, hehe!" A sneer tugged at the corner of Harold's mouth.
"A few days later, that Y gentleman actually confessed to me. Of course, the end result of this incident is that the community will fall apart. The other three all left, and in the end, I was left with the nominal member and the empty minister of Edith. ”
"As for the key person, Mr. Y doesn't seem to be able to accept the fact that I am really a man, I don't know where he ran away? Maybe he went back to his hometown to inherit the family business in frustration. ”
"Well, since then, Edith and I have really studied magic in this community, although most of them are fights."
Lilina was a little stunned as she listened, and when Harold's last words fell, the girl laughed.
The eyes were shy, and Dan's lips smiled.
Harold involuntarily recalled a poem he had heard long ago from an ancient country with a long history.
"The seniors are really interesting...... It's wonderful, as a man, he has a red-faced appearance, and he has such an awkward character. And it's a strange way to hold grudges. ”
"You're not bad on the outside, are you?" Harold replied nonchalantly. "And your personality that is very good at pretending to be cute can still fascinate many men."
"Oh!?" Lilina's mouth opened slightly, and her small fist gently hammered Harold's waist, and her fingers grabbed the fabric of Harold's waist. "That's what my predecessors thought, so were you a little fascinated by me?"
"No, you're too small." Harold yawned, he was now full of thoughts about going home to sleep, it was better to hold the pillow, and it was refreshing.
Turn the next intersection and turn into the back door of the college. At this time, the spires of the high-rise spires in the academy could already be seen from afar.
"Alright, so close, you can go back by yourself. I'm in a hurry to go back and drink with Oneiroi, so I won't send it. ”
There was no verbal response.
All that responded was that the slender jade hand that had been tugging at the corner of his shirt twisted the soft flesh of Harold's waist vigorously.
"Hey! It's painful, okay. ”
Lilina ignored him, took a few steps forward, and then turned around.
Under the gentle street lamp, Lilina's delicate face was so hazy and dreamy.
"Senior, what a hopelessly big fool. Hawkers, see you tomorrow, stupid senior. ”
The girl waved at Harold, then spun and walked away.
"Na, it's small, whether it's age, chest or personality, in all senses. Although this is only a superficial manifestation of you. ”
The man who was called a stupid man touched his nose and whispered to himself.
Harold waited quietly for the girl's figure to disappear into the night, and after a moment, he tilted his head slightly to look at the sea of stars in the sky.
"This time, the stalker technique is really good, I almost didn't notice it." He wrinkled his nose and silently channeled his magic into the necklace on his chest.
In an instant, the necklace on Harold's chest began to glow a light red, and then formed a small magic circle.
The effect of the technique has been blessed by Harold, who has now fully strengthened his physical functions and senses.
"Hunter-kun! If you follow the beast too deep into the forest, you will become prey! Harold shouted.
I heard the sudden acceleration of the heartbeat.
Harold turned abruptly, and was greeted by a thick fog with extremely low visibility. But he didn't hesitate, and at the same moment as he turned around, he clenched his right hand into a fist and quickly struck on his left arm, triggering the Hidden Arrow mechanism on his left arm, and an arrow shot out of his sleeve.
"Bell"
The sound of metal staggering could be heard in the fog of the long street.
Harold frowned slightly, listening to the subtle sound coming from the fog, and at the same time his movements did not slow down in the slightest, his left hand clenched into a fist, triggering the mechanism on his right arm, and another sleeve arrow shot out of the sleeve of his left arm, also looking for the source of the sound to shoot.
However, there was no silent feedback from this shot, and it seemed that the opponent had solved the attack by magic or other means.
"My generation is not your enemy." There was a strange tone in the fog, which was used to deliberately cover up his original voice, and the other party seemed to be running away from him.
"Cut, this time I'm too cautious!" Harold didn't answer, but was engrossed in searching for the other party's location, but the other party's aura became more and more stealthy until it was completely gone.
The thick fog on the long street dissipated in an instant, and the breath of the mysterious man could no longer be found.
When the fog cleared, all you could see was the long streets of the city and the pedestrians in the distance, and the other party managed to escape.
"Who is he?" Harold's brow furrowed slightly, and he thought quickly.
"With this kind of combat experience and stealth experience. A stalker who is also alert to me...... What kind of person would do that? ”
It's a pity that there aren't any extra clues for him to think about.
"I don't have a clue!"
Maybe it's going to be a bit of a hassle in the future.
