"No, I'm fine. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Albert shook his head. "There should be no deception between friends, I have to confess something. He looked at Joanna.

"What's the matter?" Joanna nodded, looking at each other with interest.

After a moment of silence, Albert spoke.

"Regarding my name, I'm not called Eber. He smiled. "Albert, Albert Violet. He told her.

Joanna was stunned, "Is that all?" she asked curiously.

"That's all. Albert nodded. "Aren't you surprised at all?" he asked her, his eyes full of puzzlement. Joanna is a student at Buffia's Academy of Magic, and she must know that she is wanted by Buffia, but the other party has no reaction.

Joanna smiled, with an unfathomable expression. "I knew you were Albert, the last time we met in Twilight. ”

Looking at Albert's stunned expression, she smiled and said, "Want to know why?"

Albert nodded, waiting for the following.

"I spent a whole year in Aurora when I was six years old, oh, you probably don't remember, you were only three years old and you were a little guy who couldn't walk steadily. You were always bullied when you were a kid, and I helped you every time, even if it backfired at times. Joanna explained. "Strictly speaking, we've been friends for a long time. She told him.

Albert suddenly realized. "It seems that we are still childhood sweethearts. He joked.

"No, Uncle, we're not childhood sweethearts, your identity is just a little follower. Joanna said with a smile.

"Okay. Albert smiled helplessly. "Why do you keep calling me Abel when you already know my name?" he asked her.

"Abel is your name when you were a kid. Joanna smiled. "That's why people called you that. ”

"It's an honor, it seems that you have a deep impression of me, and I don't even know about it. Albert said with some smugness.

"Of course, you're the best bully in Dawning. Joanna said with a smile.

That's a hurtful statement. Albert pouted and sat up straight. "Thank you for not reporting me then. He looked at Joanna and his expression became serious.

"I know you, and even though we haven't met since then, I believe in that kind and innocent little fellow. Joanna looked at Albert as if she had returned to thirteen years ago, when she had her happiest memories, no need to learn boring politics and etiquette, and a hard-working little attendant by her side. "There are still people talking about you in the Academy of Magic, and many people feel sorry for you. Joanna smiled. "Just use the name Eber, the Mercenary Guild has issued a bounty mission to capture you. She told him.

"The portrait is so ugly that no one will recognize me. Albert smiled wryly. "Of course, you're right, at least with less hassle. He followed his friend's advice.

"Don't be too frustrated, at least, you've become a magician. Joanna could feel the bitterness in Albert's words.

"That's right. Albert nodded, staring at the beautiful but not haughty girl. "Why don't you ask me why I became a demon and how I became a magician, aren't you curious?" he asked abruptly.

"Everybody has secrets, that's your privacy, I can see you have a hard time. Joanna said seriously. "Of course, if you're ready and want to tell me everything, I'll be a qualified listener. She looked at Albert. "I'm looking forward to that day. ”

"Thank you for your understanding, Joanna, and thank you for being my friend. Albert said with a smile.

"It's nothing. Joanna smiled.

"It may not be much to you, but it's important to me. Albert shook his head. "I only have two friends, including you. He smiled wryly.

"You're wrong, I'm no better than you, maybe worse. Joanna smiled dumbly. "You just haven't made friends for a while, and I can't make friends. Seriously, I'd rather have an ordinary face, and that would probably be happier. She explained to him. "There are very few girls who want to be friends with me, and they feel like I'm stealing their limelight. And almost everyone who approached me had a purpose, with the exception of you. I was lucky enough to find a true friend. Joanna said helplessly.

Albert wanted to say something and stopped, but in the end he didn't say it, maybe this is the best outcome.

"Wait for me here, I'll be right back. Joanna smiled.

The words fell, and she walked away the way she came.

Watching Joanna's back fade from view, Albert smiled.

It seems that the beautiful girl also has many troubles. He withdrew his gaze, hid his true thoughts in the deepest part of his heart, and vowed not to mention it again and to be a competent friend.

At that moment, a white light suddenly crossed and burrowed into Albert's arms.

He subconsciously looked into his arms and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Why are you again?" asked Albert, a little crying and laughing.

The white light was nothing else, it was the little snow tiger that had led him here.

The snow tiger stretched out its small furry paws and pointed behind it, its watery eyes showing a look of anxiety.

"What do you want to say?" Albert was confused by the little snow-tiger's actions, and he looked along the little guy's paws, but found nothing unusual.

Albert withdrew his gaze and looked at the snow tiger in his arms. He wouldn't have been able to be friends with Joanna without this little guy.

Snow Tiger glanced at Albert, as if he was a little angry. Then, the little one, who didn't know where the strength came from, broke free of Albert's hands, climbed on top of him, and grabbed his hair with four little paws.

Albert was a little confused, and was about to say something, when the bushes suddenly shook.

With a chaotic howl, six silver-gray giant wolves rushed out. The giant wolf is about 17 centimeters long, with thick limbs and a huge wolf head. Albert was shocked in his heart, this was a bronze two-star demonic beast, a misty silver wolf with lightning power. If it was usual, he would never be so panicked in the face of a two-star demonic beast. But now Albert has just experienced a life-and-death battle, his serious injuries have not healed, and he has not much magic left, and he is almost invincible in the face of the extremely cooperative misty silver wolf.

"Whew!"

The six silver wolves howled.

Albert endured the sharp pain in his heart, struggled to his feet, and thought of a countermeasure.

At the girl's walking pace, it would take Joanna at least ten minutes to get back, and now there was only one way to escape.

Albert didn't think this group of big guys with fierce eyes would be so kind to give him ten minutes. However, just as Albert turned around and tried to escape, three misty silver wolves emerged from the bushes behind him, completely cutting off his path. One of the silver wolves was much larger than the others, and let out a low roar. The other silver wolves became ready to move when they received the leader's order, grinning one by one, revealing razor-sharp fangs.

The wolves didn't attack, but the wolves circled around Albert, as if looking for their opponent's weakness.

"There was food there. Albert pointed to the body of the anaconda and tried to communicate with the silver wolf, but the wolves were indifferent and stared at him.

This means that wolves are not foraging for food, but have a purpose. Albert frowned, he didn't have to guess to know that it must be the little snow tiger who caused the trouble. In normal times, Albert wouldn't mind helping the little guy, but now he can't protect himself, and he can't care about any morality.

Albert was ruthless and grabbed the snow tiger overhead, trying to pull it down, but was unsuccessful. The little one didn't move, as if it had grown on Albert's head.

At that moment, the head wolf saw the opportunity and howled, and the wolves swarmed up like well-trained soldiers.

Albert had no choice but to stop fighting with the little guy and face the wolves.

Now that the war has begun, there must be a plan.

The thief captures the king first, and Albert intends to be the first to subdue the head wolf.

However, the cunning of the head wolf far exceeded Albert's expectations.

The head wolf is not directly involved in the battle, and always hovers around the periphery and howls non-stop, like a professional commander.

Under the wise command of the head wolf, the wolves attacked in an orderly manner, and in a short time, Albert was already scarred. His clothes had been torn to shreds, and his body was covered in claw marks and bite marks that were deep in the bones. Blood flowed like a pour, and the whole body was dyed red, like a bloody person.

"The tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs. ”

Albert secretly complained to himself, and scolded Snow Tiger in his heart, this guy is really a broom star.

The excessive blood loss caused Albert to lose a lot of speed and strength, and even more fatally was the constant tiredness that hit him like a tidal wave.

He shook his drowsy head, trying to stay awake. Looking at the wolves that pounced, Albert picked one of the thinnest, and then stretched out his hands to clamp the upper and lower jaws of the wolf, and broke it with all his might. The silver wolf's jaw drooped, and the light of life fell. After the death of the silver wolf, a gap appeared in the encirclement of the wolf pack. Albert burst out with all his might, escaped from the siege, and jumped straight onto an ancient tree. At the same time, the snow tiger saw that the situation was not good, and slipped into the fog and disappeared without a trace.

"Snow Tiger has run away, stop pestering me!" shouted Albert, believing that the Silver Wolf could understand humans.

"Whew!" Sure enough, the head wolf howled, and the four silver wolves scattered in all directions.

However, it didn't end there.

The wolves, who had failed to search for the Snow Tigers, returned, their eyes locked on Albert again, grinning their teeth.

The silver wolf unleashed a magical attack on Albert in the tree, and the lightning struck him with the thickness of his little finger, causing him to tingle his limbs and nearly fall to the ground.

Albert coughed up blood and almost fainted, but in order to survive, he had to keep climbing upwards. After enduring more than a dozen lightning bolts, Albert, who was charred and blackened, finally climbed to the canopy of the tree and escaped the range of the silver wolf's attack. However, before Albert could breathe a sigh of relief, the head wolf suddenly howled, and the wolves summoned thunder and lightning one after another.
