"Stop it. Shure looked at her.

The golden eyes, which were often filled with warmth, were the only ones left of the fading warmth......

"No......" Joan took a few steps back in disbelief.

I don't know if it's out of disbelief or out of unacceptability.

Seems like it's all the same?

"The academy will deal with this matter strictly. There was not the slightest ripple in Shure's tone, and it was hard to imagine that he would speak in such a tone of impartiality, almost coldness.

At that time, he was like one of those statues carved in the courtroom with sacred and solemn solemnity, like a sculpture, with clear lines - or impersonal.

"But I'm ......," Joan furrowed, her tone hesitant.

It's for you—but he can't say it anymore under his eyes.

"Wrong...... It's just wrong. Shure left only one sentence, turned his head, and walked away without looking back, "If you insist on ...... like this"

What will happen?

Doesn't seem convincing?

"Whoever can do this - spell or ......" Corrie listened to the Golden Finch, and already understood what the daring girl had done.

Nothing has no price, to change something, to get something that is difficult to have, then the value of such a thing to oneself, it will create a terrible price.

The naïve will pay a heavy price for this, and they will not know the suffering.

But all of us here actually have a similar realization.

"Spells can be detected, and the prohibition on the spot is enough to exclude the spells she can use. The Plantagenet unceremoniously ruled out the claim.

That's really serious.

Because there is only one option left......

"Drugs. Ke Li's face darkened, and she didn't know what would happen if this matter was known to the academy.

She did have partiality, because she believed that the girl with so many obsessions might indeed desire something—that's understandable, but—any such drug would almost always mean it.

Only necromancers can make potions.

Whatever the hell Joan got this from, it goes back to-

"Looks like the academy hasn't been safe lately. Goldfinch's tone was subtle, with an implicit irony.

"......," Corrie wanted to say and stopped.

Her little heart is very fragile now.

Still able to relax?

The usual relaxation of vigilance, that's because there is no threat, and now ......

——

"Senior Sister Ke Li......" At this time, a figure appeared directly in this room.

Goldfinch and Corrie looked up at the sound and saw the blonde boy appear.

【③】

"It's Shuer—" Corrie was stunned for a moment, and was about to say something, when she suddenly felt a flash of golden light.

The boy was too fast, like a ray of light.

When Shul saw the Golden Finch, he froze—and after he made a move, he rushed to her and grabbed her in his arms.

The Plantagenet could only see what he might call his broad shoulders and smell his breath.

Maybe it's because of the morning training, he smells a little heavy.

But it doesn't bore her.

Corrie was silent for a moment, thought of something, and took a few steps back and left the place.

So only the Plantagenet and Shure remained.

......

In some of the enclosed rooms filled with bookshelves, the smell of stale crept up with the silence—the goldfinch felt the entanglement of the breath more than the breath of Shul, and the chest that he had so clung to himself.

She didn't speak, but she roughly guessed something.

"I ...... It has to be done. It took him a long time to speak, and his hands moved harder.

The petite goldfinch was buried in his arms, and he couldn't see it.

"Hmm. She said.

With some difficulty, he reached out and patted him gently on the back.

The movement of his hands was neither light nor heavy, and Shuer's heart gradually calmed down.

He nodded unconsciously.

In the open eyes of the goldfinch, there was light that shone and went out.

In the end, he still didn't speak.

......

"Teresa......" Time passed minute by minute, and Shul still didn't let go, but when he spoke again, there was nothing wrong with his voice.

"Huh?" she replied.

Teresa...... It's very gentle. Shuer's voice was a mess of warmth—and the Plantagek didn't know how to pick it up.

Usually at this time, she doesn't know how to pick up.

"Trust your decision...... Goldfinch was silent for a moment before saying, "I'll help you with the rest." ”

"Good. Shul was stunned for a moment, and smiled again.

【④】

Corrie closed the door and saw Hester looking casual, sitting in a chair with her legs crossed, as if reading a report.

“...... You're still there. Ke Li couldn't help but understand.

"You're so unwelcome to me. Hester smiled.

“...... How dare I. "So, Lord Santa Fes, if you are bored, I can tell you that there will be a lot of things to do." ”

"Oh, did you say that there might be someone in this academy using banned drugs? "Hester Road.

？？？？

Ke Li felt that she was a little old, why did this matter fall on her, and she, who used to do reporting, is now the last person to know?

"It's not that serious. "Although the previous convention put these things in the category of necromancers, it was just their overreaction to the disaster of decades ago - the people who were able to do these medicines are actually many on the continent now. ”

“...... But they flowed into the Academy. ”

"Corrie, you've read too much—"

“......”

I'll you!

Ke Li was a little unhappy, but she was angry and didn't dare to speak.

"You think—the academy is a place for students to study, and no matter what is dangerous, you must put an end to it, right?" Hester could tell at a glance that Corrie was unhappy from her death-like expression.

“...... Then it's not. "Corrie doesn't want to reason with Hester.

Hester's experience is not comparable to that of his peers, and that is not at all his age.

Therefore, Ke Li, who is often reprimanded like this, has no intention of reasoning with him at all.

But......

I can't resist my curiosity.

"If you want to tell the academy about this now, and let them deal with it immediately, there is only one-" Hester didn't answer her question immediately.

“...... Let Joan drop out of school, and then find the person who gave her the medicine, and put it under strict management for at least a year?"

"If you are looking for someone, you must find someone. "But do you think—they didn't expect that naïve little girl to roll over?"

“...... People are ...... too," Corrie wanted to defend Joan.

"Being naïve is not an excuse for making mistakes. "The worst thing she's doing is that she's not just a victim, she's a victim." ”
