Austin College -

Lounge -

It is a place for all students to relax, not limited to the word "room", in fact the lounge occupies an area much larger than a football field, contains a café, a ball room, a computer room, a library, a dessert house and other facilities, and is very close to the college cafeteria.

As a privileged organization, the Student Union also has an exclusive VIP room in the lounge, which can be used as a meeting room.

At the moment, Arest was sitting quietly in a chair reading a detective novel with a cup of coffee, and there were cute cats tearing at his feet, or there were more than a dozen cats and dogs in the entire conference room - and that's not all.

These little ones don't bother anyone else, they're clean, and the people who keep them are members of the student council, but they're a special one.

"Meow!"

A petite girl with a pair of yellow cat ears lies on the ground and rolls and plays with the animals very intimately, and at the same time screams with them.

There's no real name.、It was picked up by the head of the house, Elliot, from the outside.,Understand the normal language of humans but can't speak.,Because of the ability, he joined the student council.,A pair of cat ears on the head are also an add-on product of the ability.,It's a real body structure.。

It's also because of the ability to communicate well with animals.,So I joined the Ministry of Information as a collector of intelligence.。

Cute little animals are always cute, but-

Arest asked with a very calm expression: "That, meow"

"Meow?" the girl said, and then got up and stared at the other.

"Can you make them quiet for a while, I'm reading. Arest continued: "By the way, let them loose, my pants are falling off......"

"Meow... Meow!

“...... Got it, it's hungry, right? Helpless, Arest took out a piece of bread from the plate in front of him and handed it to the kitten at his feet, and sure enough, the kitten immediately pounced on the food when he saw it.

Arest breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could rejoice enough, he discovered a new problem: other cats and dogs had come up to him!

In desperation, Arest had to take the food from the plate again and hand them one by one, although he didn't come often before, but recently he had figured out the names of these little ones-

"Give, little flower" a spotted cat.

"Give, Cerberus" a Shiba Inu.

"Here, February Cheng" is said to be the name given by Claudia as a staff officer and Charetia herself.

"Give ......" The corners of Arest's mouth twitched a few times: "Meow, don't make a mess, okay..."

The cat-eared girl in the middle of it grabbed her hair with her hand and looked at Arest with innocent eyes

At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open, and a tall beautiful woman with blonde hair and red eyes walked in.

"You two are casual. Luhilda sat down in her chair and took out a document and handed it to Arest.

Arester took it and opened it, and found that it was a map.

"Phineros and Tia sent back?" Arest said indifferently: "It's not bad, with the approximate coordinates, you can clearly figure out the other party's layout, what about the two of them?"

"Lost contact - after sending out this information map. Luhilda's response was plain, but the content was obvious and amazing, and Arest couldn't help but become serious: "What's going on?"

"Now everything is unknown, the two of them have all disappeared without a trace, unable to lock the coordinates or locate them, it is not only as simple as the connection has been cut off. ”

"So, has the Coalition decided to send a follow-up?" said Arest, after a moment's thought, "Although Finelos and Tia are very capable, they are not simple characters, as far as I know, this organization seems to be promoting the slogan of "rebuilding humanity", while still surviving for years as enemies of the Alliance, the Church, and the Empire. ”

"Everything is still unknown, what is your idea?" asked Luhilda for the other's opinion.

"I mean don't do it yet, at least not yet, don't you think. Arester tilted his head and said, "I'm not the student council president right now, so that's your responsibility." ”

Luhilda smiled: "Yes, but what you mean just coincides with me, for the time being, if you can't lock it later, I'll go there myself." ”

"Count the time, I should also go to the princess, that kid always feels that he can't be trusted. Arest stretched out his hand and waved at Luhilda, but the next moment of his smile was that his whole person disappeared without a trace, as if it had evaporated.

Luhilda closed her eyes and leaned back in her chair, secretly praying that Phineros and Tia would be okay.

...

"Roar!"

Swamps and forests, fierce monsters search for prey, and in a cave protected by thorns, Voruffi cares for a weakened Claudia.

Both of them were mutilated, but Waluffy was corrupted by strong acid saliva all over his body, while Claudia was scratched by thorns and branches, and even if Voruffi wanted to be cured by dragon blood, he couldn't help it.

Anyway, she was still just a little girl, and Wooluffi asked with some annoyance and guilt, "Why are you in such a hurry? How did you find me?"

Claudia's head rested on Voruffy's lap, and the whole person seemed to collapse, her face was pale but she smiled calmly and said, "I said, I have your position......"

"Really, why did you make yourself like this?" said Voruffy, a little grumblingly, "just to find me?"

Claudia looked at Voruffi and didn't speak.

"Was that your ability just now?" After thinking about it, Voruffi then asked, after all, the two giant beasts suddenly stopped moving, how could it be a natural situation, and in addition to Voruffy, only Claudia was left.

The other party nodded, and at the same time stretched out his hand to his eyes: "My eyes are pupil arts."

"Spirit Eye?" Voruffi was a little surprised, Claudia's pupil color was pale pink like her hair color, and the pupil technique represented by the pink pupil was called Spirit Eye, and her ability was to create spirit bodies, and she could also resurrect the dead as puppets, but this was completely incompatible with the scene just now.

"No, you idiot" Claudia smiled reluctantly, "My pupil color is "None", and its name is "Pupil of Time"

"The Pupil of Time... Is it the ability to manipulate time?" Voruffi was stunned, he didn't expect that the seemingly weak Claudia had this ability, but this ability should also be very exhausting, as can be seen by Claudia's appearance.

"That's right, I can manipulate time, pause, speed up, or rewind it, because I have some energy in my body, and I can use my power as long as the energy is there. ”

"You're a fool, if you have this ability, wouldn't you have surpassed Cortilova?" Wolufe was admonished, but his tone was very gentle, and it still contained guilt for Clodia, if he hadn't abandoned Clodia, Clodia wouldn't have become like this, but he still had to rely on the other party to rescue.

"I rarely use my abilities, and besides, I don't surpass Cortilova, and her pupil skills are so strong. ”

"What is it?"

"The Eye of the Veil...... Even the ability to see through bloodline and good and evil cough cough" Claudia paused and gasped, and then said: "It also has a deterrent effect on demonic beasts, so I dare to play tricks with you alone, there should be no magical beasts that threaten her in this swampy area, even those two big lizards." ”

Voruffi was a little surprised, he didn't expect Claudia to think so much, although he looked nonsense on the outside, he did everything within the scope, on the other hand, he was not only careless in fighting with the enemy, but also a little impulsive about what his friends did.

"Now, Voruffy," Claudia suddenly looked at Voruffi with her lovely pink eyes.

"What's wrong?"

"Would you like to grant me a request for the sake of saving you?" asked Claudia.

"You can do it, if I can. Wooluffi didn't even think about it.

After a moment's hesitation, Claudia finally plucked up her courage and said, "Engage with me!"

"What... What?" Voruffi was stunned for a moment, obviously not reacting, Claudia hurriedly repeated it again, although a little embarrassed, but Claudia knew how precious and rare the opportunity was for herself.

Voruffi smiled helplessly: "Claudia, are you serious? We haven't known each other for a long time, right?"

"Yes. The latter nodded hurriedly with anticipation: "Although I haven't known each other for a long time, my feelings tell me that you are my lover!"

"But I don't think we're the right fit. After thinking about it, Voruffi still said: "You are still too young, the so-called love should only be a joke, and when you grow up, you should have someone you really like." ”

"Growing up?" Claudia lowered her head and was silent when she heard some complications.

Seeing this, Voruffi was puzzled: "Claudia?"

"Well, forget it. Claudia forced a smile: "Indeed... Some strong people are difficult, and I am not worthy of you on my terms. ”

"How come!" Voluffy hurriedly denied what the other party said: "You are Her Royal Highness the Princess, and you look so cute, I am not worthy of you, when you grow up, there will definitely be a handsome prince riding a horse to marry you!"

"Growing up? Claudia's hands were clasped together, and her lips were bitten and dented: "Isn't it ironic that someone who can manipulate other people's time can't control his own?"

Hearing Claudia say this, Voluffi suddenly realized......

"Claudia, you won't" Although it was incredulous, Voluffi still asked cautiously, "You don't have any special reason, right?"

"The doctor said I could live for two years at most, and I was terminally ill. Claudia said in a normal tone, but the emotions mixed in it were indescribable.

Voluffi tried to calm his tone, but he couldn't calm down: "Clodia, don't be kidding, with the scientific and technological power of the Alliance, there will be a disease that can't be cured? You must be joking with me, right?"

"How can you have such an idea?" Claudia nodded Voruffi's nose: "No matter how strong the technology is, birth, old age, sickness and death cannot be avoided." ”

"What about the resurrection of the Empire?...... elves" was about to say something, but her mouth was covered, and she put her hand down, and Claudia looked at Voluffi again with beautiful eyes, and asked for the third time-

"Volufey, get along with me"

The mood is very complicated, and the previous attitude towards Claudia has become vague at the moment, but the answer is involuntarily-

"Good!"

After answering, Claudia also happily hugged her lover and closed her eyes happily: "Voruffy, I like you, as long as you want, I can use my ability for you at any time, no matter how much you use, no matter how much you use...... Because I like you!"

Wo Lufei also hugged the girl in his arms, and promised him: "I will let you live happily until two years from now, I promise"

"No, you promise. ”

"Huh?"

"Because the diagnosis... It was a year ago..."

“......”

The beast's roar appeared outside the cave with some difficulty, and Clodia stood up with some difficulty, and Voruffi hurriedly held on to the former.

"Now, get out of here and find Cortilova, I've finally overpowered her!" Claudia said in a proud tone as she pulled out the button.

"Claudia, I'm going to tell you something, because I don't want to hide it from you. Voruffi turned to the girl.

"What's the matter?"

"I'm not human, I'm ...... A hybrid of dragons and angels!"

As soon as the words fell, a silver-white figure descended, brandishing the holy spear and leading the two of them out of the shelter, and the minions that tried to obstruct it became scattered data in an instant!
