Through the transparent wall, you can see that Fira's steps are unconsciously walking faster and faster, but staggering and unsteady, if it weren't for Felek's support from time to time, it seems that she might fall at any time. The first release Oh pro Pennis closed his eyes and sighed softly, he couldn't bear to watch the old man walk a few more meters and greeted the entrance of the restaurant.

"Smack", as soon as she opened the door of the restaurant, Fila saw Pannis standing in front of the door, and before Pannis could speak, she was grabbed by Phira's wrist. The old man's hand was rough and cold, rubbing against the skin of Pannis's wrist, as if it had been separated by a layer of gravel, and even the protrusion of the bones could be felt in the physical contact, and the fingers holding his wrist had no strength, loose, not so much holding as just resting on Pannis's wrist.

It was only then that the girls had the first chance to observe this hero from a hundred years ago up close. Under the background of the black robe, the old man's skin was pale as paper, his skin was covered with wrinkles and light brown patches, his already thin figure became even thinner, he lost the support of his teeth, and his cheeks sank deeply, not only his cheeks, but also the old man's eye sockets were sunken, and his clear and sharp eyes became as muddy as the mire of the whispering swamp. The nails of the hands holding Pannis's wrists were still neatly built, the skin of the hands was still covered with the traces of age left by many potions, and the fingers were still slender, but the crooked fingers were dry like dead branches that had lost moisture, as if they might be blown off by the wind at any moment.

Standing in front of Pannis, Fira's lips quirmed. Several incomplete syllables were uttered, but not a complete sentence was spoken. However, the old man calmed down for a while. He slowed down his speech and whispered in a slow and strange rhythm: "I knew that you guys must not be dead yet, sure enough, you are still alive and well, and you are getting younger and younger." ”

"Heh, you still don't know how to talk to people. Pannis's expression shifted, eventually froze into a complex smile. sighed and said, "No wonder she always argued with you back then, can't you change this habit of talking?"

"What do you vulgar mortals know. The old mage seemed to remember something. The staff slammed down, and said with a cold snort: "You and her habits need to be changed, always pestering those meaningless things, hum." Is there any use in speaking tactfully? Wasting time, if the intelligent beings didn't waste too much time on these meaningless things, our magic technology would have surpassed the goblin technology of 10,000 years ago. ”

The old mage spoke very slowly, slowly, as if this was the only way for others to hear what he was saying, and once he increased the speed of his speech, he could only utter some incoherent syllables, as at the beginning. Still, though he was slow, Pannis listened attentively. It wasn't until the old mage finished speaking that he smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, what you said is right." It's okay. ”

"Boring perfunctory, hum. Fila sneered a few more times, let go of the hand holding Pannis's wrist, turned and walked next door, not forgetting to tell her students and maids, "Felek, go back." By the way, inform the students if I don't show up on time. Today's guidance will be cancelled for the time being. And a few of you, go and prepare black tea for eight people, remember to add sugar. ”

"Hey, you guy knows that I drink black tea without sugar. Pannis raised his eyebrows and shouted dissatisfiedly: "Why do you have to add sugar to me every time, and the cup given to me is still the most sweetened, you did it on purpose." ”

"That's right, you don't want to drink if you're not satisfied. Phila sneered: "Besides, I am preparing black tea for several ladies, what does it have to do with you, you won't think it is prepared for you, stupid, naïve." But look at you so pitiful, forget it, when you prepare black tea, don't put sugar in one portion, go ahead. And you, why haven't you left yet, don't have so many things to deal with now, right? Hurry up, let's go, those maids here are enough, don't get in the way here. ”

With a wry smile on his face, Felek secretly glanced at Pannis, and made a gesture of please, only then did he quickly flee under the impatient drive of the teacher. The old mage snorted coldly at the student's back, and muttered, "It's really in the way, it's annoying. Come in with me, sit down and talk slowly. ”

Fila led the six members of the party and Moore to push open the door of the living room and walked in, there was not much space inside, only a circle of soft chairs and a long coffee table, Fila trembled to her place, crutches and carefully sat down in the chair, the movement was slow and stiff, as if she would sit down on the ground if she was not careful. Pannis's pupils contracted, but he turned his head away to admire the blue sky outside the mage's tower, as if he didn't see Fira's difficult movements, until he sat down smoothly in the soft chair, then turned his head and said: "The scenery here is so good, I haven't seen such a blue sky in other places, sometimes I really want to jump down like this, let myself melt into the blue sky." ”

"Then you're jumping. Although Fira's words were very cold, the old mage had a smile in the corner of his eyes about Pannis's performance, and turned to the girls and Moore and said, "Don't stand, everyone, sit down, there should be enough chairs here." ”

"Your reception room hasn't changed at all. Pannis didn't wait for Fira's invitation, he was the first to sit down on the chair, patted the arm of the chair and said, "Well, even the little man painted by Maya at his feet hasn't changed, hahahaha." ”

"That bastard wingman. The old mage immediately had a bruised bounce on his forehead, and said angrily: "I actually dare to use light attribute magic to draw villains everywhere in my magic tower, and I can't erase them after I paint them, damn it, I have to put on a look like I didn't do anything, I remember the first time I saw them, they weren't such bastards." ”

"Ahaha. Pannis whistled and looked around, acting as if he didn't know anything, "Who knows, maybe it's the nature of the Winged Humans, or maybe it's a way for them to show their intimacy?"

"I knew you were secretly teaching them. Fira gritted her teeth angrily, but in the end, she couldn't help but smile, shook her head and sighed: "You people, it's really impossible to do anything." ”

"Alright, don't be angry. Pannis's performance didn't show the sadness in his heart at all, he made a very scoundrel look, waved his hand lazily and said: "Look, didn't I bring your favorite food to apologize? Oh, by the way, that has been sent to the kitchen by your student Felek, you can eat secretly at night, this time no one will rob you, you don't have to worry." ”

"Felek...... The rare smile on the old mage's face slowly faded, and he still said slowly: "You guys, in fact, have been here a long time ago, and have been standing outside the restaurant to watch me, right?" ”

"No, we just came. Pannis was stunned for a moment, blinked and said, "As soon as I arrived, I saw you drinking black tea, why do you think we have come a long time ago." ”

"You've never learned to lie, and it's all too obvious. Fila sneered and said, "Do those children think I don't know their minds?" Hmph, although my body is getting worse and worse, I haven't aged enough to be confused, how can I be disturbed by my own magic tower and not be able to sense such a close energy reaction. ”

"Well, I'll admit, we're here a long time ago. Pannis scratched his head and said with a wry smile, "But if you can find out, why do they think you can't sense it, your students should know your habits very well, right?" ”

"Whew, these kids. Fira sighed and said helplessly: "Since a few years ago, my health has become worse and worse, and those children have taken turns to accompany me, but I am not so weak that I can't live alone, and I don't need them to accompany me like this, so I drove them all away, but I didn't expect them to give up, they always hide and follow me secretly, especially when I eat, they don't let them in, they just hide outside and peek." I've chased them a few times, but each time they've only backed away a little bit, but they just won't leave. ”

"Heh, they're worried about you, too. Pannis said: "After all, you are not in a good state, they are worried that something will happen to you, and it is not incomprehensible that they want to stay by your side all the time." ”

"I'm not stupid, and of course I understand their purpose. Fira glared, but finally said in frustration: "I also know that they are kind, and I also know their persistence, so after a few rushes, I found that they are still the same, so I simply didn't see them, and left them alone." As a result, these children naively thought that it was a safe distance, and I couldn't sense it, so they hid there with me every time, and as long as they didn't get any closer, I didn't bother to pay attention to them. ”

"Hahaha, I guess Felek and they can't think of it, you actually know everything, it's just a show to cooperate with them. Pannis laughed and said, "But you are still the same, hard-mouthed and soft-hearted, and you have accepted their kindness, but you have made an angry appearance." ”

"Whoever accepts their kindness, I can't help being pestered by them. Phila said dissatisfiedly: "Just like this time, I dare to bring you over, I have to scold him to death when I turn back." ”

"Then he's too innocent. Pannis shrugged and said, "Since you know everything, you should know his purpose as well." ”

"Of course, doesn't he just want to get you away as soon as possible?" Fila sneered, "Okay, you must have something important coming to me, tell me, what is the matter?"
