……

The wind was blowing at night, and it was colder than it had been so long.

Wu Ma Taiqing, who was asleep, opened his eyes in a daze, and was obviously stunned when he saw the large frost white not far away.

"What am I missing?"

Wu Ma Taiqing rubbed his eyes, making sure he wasn't dreaming.

"You're missing a good show, and that stinky boy still has a ...... hidden"

Wu Ma Qing was still drinking, but there was an inexplicable brilliance in her eyes than before.

Wu Ma Taiqing, who knows her very well, is an expression that only shows when she is "interested" in something.

Wu Ma Taiqing habitually mourned for that "thing", and suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Isn't Xiao Zhou Yao's attribute a flame? How could it be possible to create such a large ice area. ”

"No, he didn't do that. I'm not talking about that, either. Wu immediately shook his head.

"Woo woo~~!"

Suddenly, Wu Ma Yuqing, who had been thrown aside, protested.

"Alright, alright, I'll untie you."

……

At the guild headquarters, Illya was lying on the desk with a tired face, her little cheeks rubbing back and forth on the table, looking bored.

The rebuilding of the guild has been completed, and she was supposed to go back to the mobile city to deal with the affairs of Erupa, but she had to postpone her trip because of the magic weapon.

I didn't go to rest at this time, and I was also waiting for the result from Zhou Yao's side.

"Master, your black tea." The maid Serra brought hot tea that had just been brewed.

"Thanks, Serra." Illya thanked her and got up from the table with her teacup.

She had just taken a bite when there was a knock on the door.

"Knock knock!"

"Come in."

Illya's eyes lit up, and she knew that it must have been the result from there.

Then a female clerk walked into the room, greeted Illya respectfully, and handed over the document in her hand.

"This is the latest report and the relevant observations......"

"I'll take a look~I'll see~" Illya put down her teacup and picked up the file with interest.

The wall clock in the room was ticking, and soon Illya was finished.

"I knew he wasn't going to fail. Go and tell me to go down and have a meeting. ”

Illya raised the corners of her mouth. Commanded the clerk.

"Yes!" The clerk left the room in response.

"Good news?" Serra, who was standing next to her, asked knowingly.

"Of course, and more than I expected." Illya got up and left her seat.

"What do you mean?" Sierra raised an eyebrow.

"The value of magic weapons. I think those guys have any reason to refute this time. ”

After Illya finished speaking, she left the room humming an unknown tune. Serra glanced curiously at the papers on the table, then followed.

……

Location conversion. It will not be the headquarters of the Magic Society, but the "Clock Tower", one of the five university campuses.

Against the backdrop of the night, Zhou Yao and the three of them came here.

"Master, aren't you going to the association?" Sakiya asked out loud.

"Icarus and Hulianbei aren't over there." Zhou Yao shook his head and said.

The letter sent by the White Dove Demon wrote a sentence before: "Two beautiful ladies are visiting me here, and I also invite Mr. Zhou Yao to come to the Clock Tower to talk about it." ”

After that, the two specific addresses were not written.

"It's a threat! It's excessive! Erquit shouted indignantly. The gaze of passers-by becomes dangerous.

"Calm down, see Icarus and Xiaolian first." Zhou Yao said soothingly.

Although he thinks the same as Elquit, he won't explode until he sees Icarus and Xiaolian.

The current calmness is just suppressing anger.

After a while, it was the diligent and serious white dove that flew over from the distant teaching building.

"I'm here to lead the way. Let's go. ”

Zhou Yao greeted and took the lead in walking towards the white pigeon.

He wanted to see who, with what purpose, dared to take Icarus and Hulianbei hostage.

Following the guidance of the white dove, the three of them turned left and right and walked into an ancient villa in a remote area.

Say the villa is ancient. It's because it's full of medieval flavors, and it's not just the appearance, but you can naturally feel the atmosphere that is out of touch with the times.

Continuing to follow the white dove, the three of them went deep into the end of the corridor and came to a large living room.

Opening the door of the living room, Zhou Yao found Icarus and Hulianbei at first sight.

"You're both alright...... Looks like it's fine. ”

Zhou Yao's tone changed sharply halfway through his words, and his initial worry and anger directly turned into peace of mind and depression.

Hulianbei was sitting leisurely on the sofa eating snacks, next to Icarus who was holding a globe ball in a daze.

The two of them didn't seem to have anything to do, but it made Zhou Yao, who saw this scene, have the illusion that he was in the wrong place.

I'm such a fool when I've been worried!

Zhou Yao was depressed in his heart. The anger that had been brewing at any time was leaking out in an instant. But at the same time, he was also relieved that Icarus and Hulianbei had no accidents.

“Master！”

I saw Zhou Yao appear. Icarus's slightly depressed expression immediately reared up, and his tone quietly rose a lot.

"Ahem!"

On the other hand, Hulian Bei, who was eating happily, was choked with fright when he saw Zhou Yao, and his little face coughed red.

"I'll wait to get back. See how I clean you both. Zhou Yao gritted his teeth and looked fierce.

"Woo~" Hu Lianbei pitifully grabbed the corner of Zhou Yao's sleeve and handed over the cookie that he had just received in his palm.

The poor offensive effect was outstanding, Zhou Yao gave her a helpless look, and put the cookie in his mouth.

"The taste is so light, it's not as good as Sakiya's craftsmanship at all." While eating. He commented.

It tastes good in the light sweetness, but it's not good compared to Sakiya's craftsmanship. Zhou Yao wondered how could he still eat here at home when Saki Night could make more delicious dim sum at any time.

By the way, and the angel over there......

"It was a special snack with some of the dragon's favorite ingredients. There are some differences in taste between dragon species and humans, and humans can't eat them. ”

The old man walked out of it with a teapot and explained to Zhou Yao with a smile. Compared to him, Zhou Yao's face has become less good-looking.

"Who are you?" Zhou Yao asked with a cold face. If it weren't for the fact that Icarus and Hulianbei were safe and sound, he wouldn't have bothered to talk nonsense.

Although the anger dissipated, it was far from the point of gaining favor. After all, it is a fact that the other party took Icarus and Hulianbei as "hostages" to lure him over.

What's more, the old man also gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it there before......
