"I ...... I still have to go to the 'wood and stone' seniors to have a look. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
For some reason, Troy felt that his heart was beating at an unusually fast pace, whether it was nervous or worried, or something else, but the boy had been a little uneasy since he heard Shi Lijie pretend to mysteriously reveal Starlow's weakness.
And it's getting worse.
ββIs that the so-called "sixth sense"?
"Hey, isn't it?" and in Hikari's opinion, Troy's concern was completely unreasonable, "Even if the little black master said that Mr. 'Wood and Stone' is more likely to be troubled by illusions, it has to be 'extraordinary' illusions, and ordinary tricks will not affect him at all, cough." β
The swordsman coughed lightly, pondered for a while, and perhaps felt that his words were not convincing enough, so he continued:
"Besides, there are only a handful of people in the Magic Academy who are known for their illusions, and there is no information that they have joined this ...... 'hunting group', how could it be so coincidental that Mr. 'Wood and Stone' would encounter them?
Seeing that the other party's face became slightly heavy, as if he wanted to nod in agreement, Hikari couldn't help but continue to play with a little smugness.
"I have to admit, Troy, you are very strong, you are completely from two worlds compared to a half-guy like me, and you fought to the end last time, right? In other words, you may be stronger than our 'little' captain in all aspects...... But,'Mr. Mushi's strength is obvious to all.,His strength is definitely the top few in the school park.,If it's really a situation that he can't even solve,Then,What can we who are weaker than him help?,Isn't it?"
Shikari rarely felt a hint of "superiority" when his target was Troy, and this pleasant feeling made him see a little light in his mind, which had been plagued by dullness since he was inexplicably defeated by the Black Shaman, and regained the feeling of frivolous and arrogant guidance in the past.
"So, don't worry about it for no reason, if you can't stay any longer, just say it, Master Ben can be merciful enough to accompany you around and around, remember that you haven't been trained in the swamp area......, right?"
"Thank you. β
Tilting his head to reveal some innocent smiles that he missed, Troy, who gently swept his nose with his fingers, suddenly said such a sentence, and saw Hikari's reaction as expected.
-- Stopped.
"Hmm...... Suddenly say thank you or something......"
Because of the maintenance and various aspects, the swordsman looked younger than Troy in terms of appearance, and the boy's sudden thanks made his face turn red for a moment, and he was embarrassed to touch the back of his head with his hand that did not often hold the sword.
"But I'm still going. Rather, your 'advice' has strengthened my desire to check the situation over there. β
The boy's next words made Hikari wonder if there was something wrong with his ears, and when he looked at Troy with a surprised expression, the immaculate smile on his face made him swallow all the words he had prepared, leaving only a sigh of abandonment.
"Forget it, go if you want, don't worry, I have ...... for the work here"
"Haha...... Hey, all you're working is a pickup and a funeral wind, and you haven't done anything since two hours ago. β
Shikari's muttering finally made Shi Lijie, who had been quietly listening to the exchange between the two, laugh, and not only that, but she also "exposed" it mercilessly.
"I said, we're still not good teammates who live and die together!? I was just going to say 'we', okay? Anyway, haven't you been working and have been hiding in the shade of a tree?
"Hey, hey, hey, how can I talk to your noble, great, beautiful, elegant, and kind captain? I'm a 'vampire,' and it's common sense for vampires to rest during the day! Besides, are we wrong? Have you been holding Troy to talk to you since just now?"
"Tsk! Strong words, this young master doesn't care about children!"
"Yo yo yo, who do you say is a child?"
Like this, Shi Lijie and Hikari "quarreled" with no one to be left behind, and such a "harmonious" scene made ordinary teenagers a little unbearable. He understood that the purpose of the clever cooperation between the two men was only to relax himself and not to be cranky, but, as he had said before, the uneasiness in his heart was still spreading, and it was intensifying, almost making him feel an illusory suffocation.
"Ah...... It's ......"
As if to confirm that his fears were not entirely false, the flow of magic and elementals spreading from afar meant that a battle had begun.
"Troy, go if you're worried, we're here and we'll be fine. β
Since the battle broke out so far away, the only people who could sense the ominous aura were Troy and Shi Lijie, who stopped playing with Hikari when he sensed what was happening, straightened the hem of his expensive dress, and straightened his face.
"Thanks, then I'll leave immediately. If there is nothing going on, I will not disturb Starlo's senior to carry out the task assigned by Lord Sirune, and rush back here as soon as possible. β
Something strange came flooding back in his mind, and Troy tried his best to hide his anxious emotions, and bowed lightly to Shi Lijie, who was also his teacher and friend.
"What's that? It's not like you, Troy. β
The delicate palm that seemed to be weak easily pushed away Shikali, who was at a loss for the current situation, and Shi Lijie walked slowly and gracefully to the young man, but showed a displeased look in the next second when he stretched out his palm to him.
Because of her height, she couldn't easily realize the idea of touching the boy's fluffy black hair with the palm of her hand, and if it was with the help of magic like levitation, it felt like she was losing something......
"Well, I understand. β
Fortunately, the connected bloodline not only made it easier for Shi Lijie to understand what Troy was thinking than others, but also vice versa, and instantly understood the young girl's distress, he bent down neatly, letting the other party's warm palm fall on his head.
"Understood...... That's it. Say what you want to say, do what you want, don't force yourself, don't let Lan ...... That person's things affect you too much. β
"Yes. β
Shi Lijie's gentle and unexplained pitiful words made a kind of warmth flow through Troy's body, in order not to make the person who cared about him more worried, the young man also nodded gently, and then gently took the other party's hand, and then resolutely turned around, moving in the direction of the previous magic explosion.
