The weather was fine - the sky was clear, and the white clouds were fainting in the clear river. Under such a sky, the Anlimont Academy seemed to be quiet, and the man sat quietly in the apricot grove, with both the clear sky and the flourishing appearance of the apricot grove in his eyes.

Rare tranquility.

He didn't know why, but he came here at this time.

I don't want to ask about the Holy Crown, or even my own work.

It is reasonable to be willful occasionally, but this occasional time makes even him sigh.

......

"Professor Herris?" until a familiar voice rang in his ears—he opened his golden eyes with a cold glow, looked up, and saw that the girl was looking at him with some surprise, as if she didn't expect him to be here.

"What's wrong...... Nina. Herris said, still leaning against the trunk of the tree, and said to her.

"I just didn't expect you to be here. Nina pursed her lips and lowered her head and muttered, "Obviously a professor, it's really enviable to be so idle at this time......

"Well, I'm out of class. Herris captures these sounds clearly, not too tabooly, and rather leisurely.

"......" is it really good to not care so much.

Herris didn't go to the Santa Fes Training Center today, because Plantage and Shure didn't see him there when they returned.

Cause?

Maybe it's because I suddenly want to be willful.

Thinking about what to do - he couldn't help but feel that since he was going to run out and be idle, he still had time to think about "why", it was a pure waste of his time, so he simply closed his eyes again, leaning against the trunk of the tree, as if he was going to fall asleep at any moment.

It's nothing—just completely forgetting that there's a girl around.

"Is the professor done?" Seeing him like this, Nina didn't leave, didn't leave, and suddenly twitched the corners of her mouth, "I heard that there is still something to set up the venue tonight......

This is definitely a part of this, right?

"Hmm. Heres answered.

Did you say yes or no......

Nina tangled.

"How could you come here. Herris asked, as if at last his conscience, or perhaps because he felt that he could not sleep—and yet still closed his eyes.

"Ahh......h That one...... I don't know. Nina stood in place, looking around, dazed, and then her tone seemed to be stained with a thick fog, which could not be dispersed.

...... I don't know?

Herris opened his eyes and looked at her with a slight helplessness.

"Aha, I was thinking about whether the ice cream is strawberry-flavored or mint-flavored, and I thought, hey, I'll see the professor. Nina scratched her head and said embarrassedly.

Still "hey"?

Herris was convinced.

Nina is really easy to "surprise"......

During this time, she would either suddenly lose something or forget what to do next.

Could it be the spell in my head?

Herris thought about it and asked it, but she shook her head violently every time.

If she didn't care, he could only ask—after asking for a long time, even he found it troublesome to ask.

“...... Don't tell me, I don't know how I'm going to get back yet. Herris twitched the corners of his mouth, and suddenly something else happened.

"That's right!" Nina almost cried with joy.

It's touching, this professor finally realizes his current difficulties!

Otherwise, why would she stand stunned and don't know what to do!

If she knew how to get back, she would have run away!

“...... It occurred to me that there was something to deal with, or I might have to be told to death by Primo. Herris thought about it, stood up, and patted the leaves off his body at random, which can be said to be very helpless.

Of course, Nina could see that he was thinking about himself, and he looked like he was about to cry: "Woo woo woo can't be repaid!"

...... "Don't, don't report it, you're either going to forget or you're going to make a mess."

For this girl, Herris is actually very entangled.

"Professor! That flower is beautiful!

...... I'm not blind.

"Professor, that tree! like one I've seen in the north!"

...... This tree is only found in the south.

"Professor, I think I've been here before!

...... Is there anything you can remember.

——

"Actually, you don't have to look for topics...... I don't usually like to talk. Herris was helpless, and when Nina was still looking for something, he spoke.

"Hey?!" Nina was stunned for a moment, then couldn't believe it, and her voice was deliberately lowered, "Didn't you say that people in the west are quite noisy......"

Hey, I hear you!

Heres was helpless.

"Although there are rumors that this is the case, it ...... Never mind. At this time, even if the other side says something that is not very good, he does not have the right to refute it...... Why?!

Herris was speechless, and couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Uh...... Am I saying the wrong thing again?" "Nina sometimes speaks in a different tone, but she is quite sensitive to the attitude of other people, and suddenly regrets it, "I'm sorry......"

"It's fine. Herris said.

Even though she said that, Nina still felt a little uncomfortable.

She didn't take other people's politeness for granted.

Especially if you are still ......

Just think about it......

Suddenly no one spoke, and the two of them advanced through the trees one after the other, only the soft rustling sound of stepping on the ground.

It's not that Nina doesn't want to say anything, but she doesn't dare to say it, for fear that Herris will be annoyed and leave her alone.

Well, it's pure self-inflicted.

Nina felt more and more conflicted, and still a little unclear about reality.

It seems a bit ...... It's dangerous.

Thinking so, her mind inexplicably didn't know where she had gone.

So much so that Herris's voice was not heard.

"Nina ......"

......

"Nina!"

Nina was stunned, suddenly came back to her senses, her eyes widened, and in front of her was the appearance of Herris, no different from before, but the voice in her ears was ......

"Be careful——!

This is......

What's wrong?

Nina didn't know why, and suddenly felt that she was separated from reality by a glass door-

Bite......

Whoa——!

I don't know what was going on around the woods, and suddenly there was a puff of smoke and dust, rolling towards her, but she couldn't move, I don't know if it was because she was too surprised, or because she was in a trance—

Herris gritted his teeth and rushed over—

She opened her mouth and watched it happen suddenly, on the one hand, she still did not react, but on the other hand, she was frightened by the sight.

What the hell is this-

A shallow voice suddenly sounded in her ears, hidden under her shock, so that she didn't notice it for a while.
