Chapter 24: The Man Who Saved

"Run ten laps along the outer wall of the royal court. Then come back for breakfast. ”

Luna suddenly felt a little weak after Silas's understatement fell.

In winter, she used to run to the top of the tower to watch, although because of the height limit at that time, she could only see half of the wall at the edge of the royal court, and a large area of the roof in the royal city, but according to her estimate, these ten laps down, it is definitely no less than a marathon, and even in terms of distance, it may only be a lot more.

Emma, she's never run 800 meters in her life!

Even if she was a wolf now, her physical fitness and stamina would have increased, but could she really run in such a big circle?

But it was clear that she was underestimating her current energy.

After running the first lap without stress, and still looking around at the scenery without blushing or panting, to be honest, even Luna herself was taken aback by her current stamina.

Followed by the second lap, the third lap......

It wasn't until the fifth lap that Luna felt that her steps had become heavy, and the little brothers and sisters who were leading in front of her didn't even breathe.

"Uncle, run, I can't run......" Gritting her teeth until two-thirds of the way through the seventh lap, Luna finally stopped slowly and said with her tongue out.

This is really her limit, Jack has never participated in this kind of long-distance running, and he started to run like crazy for a while, so he was already carried by Samuel on the sixth lap.

"It's not bad, I'll take you back to breakfast first. Truth be told, it was somewhat unexpectedly that Luna had survived until now.

It's not that Luna's first long-distance run in her life was very good, but her speed that was never fast or slow surprised Samuel, after all, such self-discipline is really rare among freewheeling cubs.

On the way back, Luna rejects Samuel's offer to carry her with her, and instead slowly walks back behind Samuel.

"What? do you want to run tomorrow?" Samuel asked, returning to the open space where he had set off, suddenly looking at Luna, who was staring blankly at the schoolhouse in the distance.

Hearing this, Luna withdrew her gaze from the three-story "concave" building, which looked particularly ornate in the morning light, turned her head to look at Samuel, and asked, "Ahh

"When you come back, you're memorizing your way. ”

Luna's eyes opened slightly when she heard this, and she couldn't understand at all, she didn't make a mark, and she didn't leave a body odor, how did the other party know?

"Tsk, you look so stupid! Your father is embarrassed to show me how good you looks...... He should have let him see his silly cubs for himself. Raising his hand and wiping his chin, Samuel decided that he would never lose his sights on the royal court as long as he kept an eye on the location of the central castle.

"Silly!" Jack, who had been carrying, suddenly nodded seriously in agreement.

Luna swallowed a mouthful of old blood, bared her teeth at the two males, and turned to leave.

Hmph, don't you know she's a divine beast?!

"Where are you going? Skipping breakfast?" Samuel asked, looking at Luna as she ran towards the gate of the school building in the distance.

"Eat......" Luna paused and shrugged her small black nose to reconfirm the direction where the smell of rice was wafting.

"You're running in the wrong direction, the dining hall is over there, and the direction you're going is the kitchen......" Samuel said kindly, pointing in the direction of the east side of the school building.

"......" Luna silently turned back when she heard this.

She deeply felt that the dining hall and kitchen were set in two directions, which was too difficult for her.

Besides, she didn't want to say a word about those two scourges now!

Looking at the little niece who silently bypassed him and Jack and walked towards the dining hall, Samuel looked at the weather vane swaying in the wind in the distance, the corners of his lips hooked slightly, and secretly wondered if he would wait until he finished eating and then tell the little guy that in fact, the direction she was looking for was not wrong, but it was the back door of the kitchen......

On the other side, in the hall at the entrance of the school, looking at a huge macaw flying in through the gate, Goult landed on the other party's wings, frowned, and asked:

"Parrot, how many laps did those two little guys run?"

"Six circles of black, less than eight circles of black and white......," the parrot turned into a handsome man with red hair and a shawl and a brocade robe, and said.

"Less than eight laps, that little guy is doing well~" Gote stroked his goatee in surprise.

"I don't think she's running like the first time. ”

"Oh?"

"Not fast, not slow. ”

"I see. I'll listen to your class in a moment. Gotte got up and patted Parrot on the shoulder.

"You don't expect those two little ones to spit out other sounds from their wolf mouths, do you?"

Parrot Xiang helped his forehead, he was a full-time teacher of foreign languages, so he naturally understood that land orc cubs like Luna and Jack who had not yet transformed were no matter how talented they were, with their current physical conditions, it was impossible to learn from him.

"It's just for them to see. By the way, don't forget to go to my place to get medicine, the wound on your wing has recurred, right? Take care of yourself this season. ”

Gotte didn't explain much to Parrot, just looked at his left arm and reminded him.

"I ......"

Parrot Xiang wanted to say no, he wanted to say that such pain could remind him of the person who had left him, but when he saw the clear black eyes of Shang Gote's insistence, he could no longer say it.

"I know what you're trying to say, but she's back in God's arms, and you're still alive, have you ever thought about remembering her in such a way that it's not what she wants to see?"

Looking at the parrot Xiang, Gote seemed to see the pair of parrots quietly snuggled in the wind and snow again, although when he found them, the other one was already dead, but it was also out of the stubbornness of the healer, ignoring the pleading of the parrot Xiang to die.

Since then, although the person who parrot has been rescued, his heart seems to have been buried under the frozen ground along with the yellow and blue figure.

After breakfast, Luna sees Gout standing alone at the school gate, staring blankly at the sky, not knowing what to think.

She said hello to Samuel and ran alone, but the other party didn't even notice her approaching.

"Mr. Gotte?" Luna called a few times before the old orc in front of her came back to his senses, "What's wrong with you?"

Gotte lowered his head to Luna's pure and concerned eyes, slightly stunned, and couldn't help but feel a hint of warmth in his heart.
