Chapter 30: Elopement?

The four of them discussed for a while, and seeing that it was almost dark, and there was still no way to take care of all the situations, Lucius punched the wall. "I think we'd better go and ask Herrick for help, he will turn a blind eye to the research of Marosas, but he will definitely keep us safe. ”

Adeline glanced at Lucius with some embarrassment, and after thinking about it for a while, she compromised. "Well, your lives are more important than my reputation. ”

"Isn't this nonsense?!" Lucius's anger came out of his way when he heard Adeline say this.

Barred stood on one side and didn't speak, he didn't want to get involved in the argument, and he would hurt the other side no matter which side he helped.

Adeline sighed. "Then we'll go to Herrick now, come with me. ”

"Wait a minute!" Ilsutya suddenly stopped at the door. "Wait a minute...... I came up with a solution. ”

Lucius looked at her with his hands clasped to his chest in disbelief, and Barred suddenly saw the savior and rushed forward. "If you have a way, just say it earlier, we're all dying. ”

Ilsutia walked back to the bedside and turned to look at the three of them. "But it's a risky one, and I can't guarantee it's going to work. ”

Lucius grabbed the doorknob with one of his impatient hands. "If you don't say it, I'll go out if you don't say it. ”

"Don't be in such a hurry, Your Highness the Prince. Ilsutia smiled charmingly. "Now it's just the four of us and Marosas who know about it, and I can expect him to never tell anyone else, so now the power is four of us against one against one. ”

"You're going to kill him?" Bared's eyes widened in surprise.

"Don't think about it, I don't dare do that!" Ilsutia tried to cover Bared's mouth, and reached halfway to glance at Adeline, stopping in mid-air. "The four of us can escape from the Mage's Tower together and take refuge in Durham. ”

"Are you crazy? So we're completely out of touch with Marosas, how are we going to come back in the future?" Adeline grabbed Ilsutia's hand.

Ilsutia was not worried. "Wouldn't that be better? Aren't you tired of being here? I can't stand it anymore, and it's better to be away from here. ”

Adeline dismissed her friend's words. "We still have a lot to learn, how can we become archmages if we leave now?"

Ilsutia snorted. "I didn't even want to be an archmage, I didn't even want to be a mage. The girl looked at Lucius and Barred. "Take me to Durham!

Barred touched his chin. "Ilsutia, listen to me, you really should listen to Adeline, you shouldn't put your future on us, we're only going to hurt you. ”

"Don't you want to fly away with Adeline, the four of us go to Durham together, and you can be with Adeline every day. ”

"This has to be done by both parties. Barred shyly touched his neck and noticed Adeline looking at him. "No! I'm saying you can't force Adeline to do such a dangerous thing with you. ”

Ilsutia stomped her foot and relented. "Well, even if Adeline doesn't join us, the three of us can do it, there are three of us, are we still afraid of Malosas?"

Lucius coughed twice. "To be honest, I don't think the three of us are his opponents. ”

"That doesn't stop us from pursuing freedom!" said Ilsutia with more and more agitation. "Freedom is the most basic human right, no one can take it away, we can do it!"

Barred shook his head as if he had been brainwashed. "You two will leave me here, and Lucius and I will go to Herrick, and that's it. With that, he went to open the door.

"I'm joining!" Adeline's voice came suddenly.

Barred withdrew his hand, and with a thrill in his heart, he controlled his expression that was almost laughing, and pretended to be extremely serious. "Adeline, have you figured it out?"

"I'm ......," Adeline cupped her chin and pondered again.

Barred felt remorseful, how could he ask such a stupid question, he really wanted to slap himself, but fortunately, Adeline nodded firmly after thinking about it for a while. "I've decided, I'm joining you, I'm right, we're supposed to get out and about, and sooner or later we'll become nerds in the Mage Tower. ”

"Great!" Barred raised his fist excitedly and waved it, unable to hide his excitement. "Adeline, thank you, don't worry, I'll protect you, ah of course, and Ilsutia. ”

Ilsutia groaned. "Who protects whom, you think you'll have more ways to deal with Marosas than we do?"

Lucius walked up to the two mages. "Do you have any good ideas? You can't rely on impulse, you're still young, it's normal to be impulsive, but you have to think about the consequences. ”

Adeline said with a serious expression, "In terms of strength, Ilsutia and I are indeed weaker than Marosas, after all, the other party is an archmage, but we are by no means idle, in the mage tower, the two of us are recognized as top students, and the call to become an archmage in the future is also the highest." ”

Lucius shook his head helplessly. "You do need to get out and about, I think you're a nerd already, Adeline. ”

Barred recovered from his excitement and is much more sober now. "Let me ask you so, with the strength of the two of you, plus two experienced swordsmen, will you be able to escape from the hands of Marosas?"

Adeline and Ilsutia looked at each other and nodded at the same time, and Adeline replied word by word, "It's possible, but no one can guarantee it." ”

Lucius shook his head as he spread his hands and turned to open the door again. "I'd better go find Herrick. ”

"Stop!" Barred grabbed him and pulled him back. "We have to believe in the power of our fellow soldiers, Lucius, and I think there's nothing that can't be done as long as the four of us work together. ”

Lucius broke free of Barrede's grasp. "You just pretend, you think I don't know what you're up to? Don't you just want to take advantage of the opportunity to be with Adeline? Be sensible, Bared, you've always been more sane than me, how did you end up like this today?"

Barred touched his forehead in pain. "Lucius, you let me down so much, I thought you were a person who dared to take risks and take on challenges! Don't you think we give up the safe route and choose a new route full of dangers in order to temper ourselves in the midst of danger?

Lucius's mouth opened halfway to say something, but it closed again, and he hesitated for a moment and sighed. "Well, what you're saying isn't entirely unreasonable, it's just that this time I think it's too dangerous. ”

"Don't worry, Lucius, Adeline and I will do everything in our power to protect you. "Ilsutia's adventurous spirit seems to be on par with Lucius's.

Adeline smiled slightly. "Now that we've decided, let's get ready, it's going to get dark. ”

Barred looked out the window, and the sky in the distance was almost black. "Thank you so much for your help, Adeline, Ilsutia. ”

Ilsutia punched Barred in the chest with excitement. "Let's come up with a name for this operation, eh...... It's called elopement, how about it?"

Adeline's face turned red, and Lucius and Barred shook their heads helplessly. "Do you know what elopement means, little girl?"

Not to be outdone, Ilsutia glared at Lucius. "What do you mean by elopement?"

"Elopement is when two people run away and unite on their own, despite the opposition of their families and elders, understand, little girl?" Lucius couldn't help but laugh.

"Aren't we?" asked Ilsutia, puzzled, "of course, if the establishment of a link can be seen as a union, then it will be exactly the same. ”

"It's different!" Lucius interrupted the girl. "And we didn't say we wanted to connect with you. ”

Barred stammered in. "Well...... I could have considered it...... Think about it...... Combine...... Oh no...... What do you say about the connection, Adeline?"

Adeline looked down at her toes. "I ...... I do not know. ”

Ilsutia punched Barred in the chest again. "You don't have to worry about Bared, Adeline doesn't want to connect with you, I'll take her place, the feeling between us is very strong, I noticed it when we danced. ”

"No, Ilsutia, I just want to be Adeline's bodyguard. Barred said slowly.

Ilsuthia snorted, walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, ignoring Bared, Adeline's face turned even redder, she didn't know what to say, so she had to sit next to Ilsutia, her hands fiddling with the corners of her skirt.
