Chapter 70: Persuasion
The open space outside the teaching building is already crowded with students of all grades. Even the corridors and windows of several nearby buildings are full of excited and expectant heads.
Koya casually stood on the edge of a field vacated in the crowd, smiling as he listened to Mr. Bao Li, the lead teacher of the second class of swordsmen, announcing the rules of the duel.
Mr. Bowley had come to persuade peace, but once both sides agreed to a duel, there was nothing he could do to stop it. With the consent of both sides of the duel, the notary was to be appointed by Mr. Bowley.
After the rules were announced, Mr. Bowley asked the onlookers to take another ten steps back. So as not to accidentally injure the innocent during the duel. At this time, Judy hurriedly squeezed in, holding a bladeless long sword in her hand, and ran directly in front of Keya, saying, "Keya, take the sword." When dueling, be careful!"
Keya laughed, shook his head, and said, "Judy, don't you know my strength? ”
Of course, Judy knew that Koya was already a high-level swordsman, and it would be a piece of cake to deal with a junior magician. But if you have a way of concern, she said anxiously: "That's the case, but with a sword in hand, the grasp will be a little bigger." Take it, don't instigate it!"
Keya actually had other plans in mind, he knew that there were probably a lot of boys who loved Anne in the academy, and it was inevitable that someone would come to challenge him one after another in the future. In this case, it is better to show your strength in this battle and deter those who want to challenge. In the future, once and for all, if you don't have the ability to defeat yourself, no one will dare to provoke!
So Keya still shook his head and said, "Judy, I really don't need it." You go to the side and watch, and I'll be done with the fight in a moment. ”
Judy was disappointed, she bit her lower lip hard with her teeth, endured it for a while, and finally couldn't help but say, "If this sword was given to you by Anne, would you want it?"
Koya sighed softly, he knew the pain in Judy's heart. However, he can't help it. There is no reason to like someone. Keya has always regarded Judy as her best friend, and her straightforward surname makes Keya almost treat her as a brother. But when it comes to the relationship between men and women, Keya really never thought about it.
Now he thought to himself, "It's time to find a time to talk to Judy." I hope she can forgive me for my choice and be best friends in the future!" So Keya said, "Judy, I want to talk to you about Annie. But not now, when the duel is over, I'll come to you at noon, okay?"
Judy bit her lip again, snorted, and turned away. By this time, Alec was already thirty paces away from Koya. Stretched out his hand and pointed at Koya, and shouted angrily, "Koya." Françoise, I knew that I should not have spared your life in the first place, and Anne would not have been deceived by your rhetoric! I tell you, Anne is mine, and no one can snatch her from me! If anyone dares to intervene, he will die! Françoise, today is your time of death, pray to the goddess!"
Ke Ya just smiled slightly, and said calmly: "Thank you for leaving my life at the beginning, and now I will also spare your life, just take it as a reward!"
Alec was so angry that the blue tendons on his forehead protruded, and he gritted his teeth and shouted to the notary public, Mr. Baoli: "Notary teacher, can you start? I can't wait to kill someone!"
Mr. Bowley sighed and said to Keya, "Are you ready?"
Keya smiled and nodded, "Teacher, you can start at any time!"
Mr. Bao Li waved his right hand and shouted: "The duel begins, life and death are at your own risk!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Alec clasped his hands and chanted a magic spell aloud. Suddenly, a large number of magical elements in the air rushed towards him.
At that moment, someone in the crowd shouted, "Stop! You are not allowed to fight!" and then the crowd was pushed away, and two people squeezed in desperately.
The first person was Anne, and when she ran to Alec in two steps, she shouted, "Alec, what are you doing?
Alec's face was distorted, and he shouted, "Annie, leave me alone, let me kill this stinky boy." In the future, I can beat and scold you as much as you want, but I will never spare him today!"
Anne glared at her and said, "You dare! If Koya loses a hair, see if I don't peel your skin! Go back!
Alec's eyes were red, his feet jumped in anger, and he shouted hoarsely, "Why? Why? Anne, I've been liking you since I was thirteen years old, and I've been pursuing you for six years! Why? My six years of dedication are not as good as a few days for this pariah? Don't you look down on him the most? Why do you fall in love with such an inconspicuous poor boy? Ahh
Standing aside, Theron who came with Anne immediately walked over and persuaded: "Alex, don't be impulsive, let's go back and talk about something." Who is really good to Anne, Anne will understand later, ah?"
Alec waved his hand and said, "No, I have made a duel with him, and if I give up at this time, I will be laughed at by the world." In any case, today it is said that either I will die or he will die! There is no room for negotiation!"
"Alec!" Anne roared in anger, her eyes staring at him deadly. It took a long time for her to soften. He sighed lightly and said, "Alec, I know you like me. We grew up together, and there were many, many happy times that I will never forget. Alec, you are in my heart, that is my brother. All along, you have spoiled me, and you have no complaints when I scold and beat me. You look forward to the day when I will be touched by you and become your wife. Can I not know this? But Alec, there really is no reason to talk about feelings. I like Koya as much as you like me. In order to get his love, I used to let him beat and scold him without a word of complaint, just like you. To be with him, even if I die tomorrow, I only have joy in my heart. You know, Alec, even if you can kill him, I'm not going to be with you. For I will die with him, and I will be with Koya forever when we go to heaven. Alec, I know it hurts your heart to say that. But I can't help it, I can't live without him. I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
Alec's face turned pale halfway through listening. When Anne said the word sorry, he couldn't bear it anymore, and with a sigh, he squatted down to cover his face, and cried so sadly.
Anne also had tears in her eyes, leaned over and touched the top of Alec's head, and said softly: "Alec, we can't be husband and wife, but we can still be like brothers and sisters! Don't cry? There are so many people watching here, you are a big man, how shameful is this? Man, when you can afford to put it down, without me, I believe you will find a better girl than me. Alright, get up, let's go back!"
Keya, who was standing in the distance, saw this, and knew that today's duel might not be able to fight. With a light sigh, he slowly walked to Anne's side, and said to Alec seriously: "Alec, leave Anne to me! I swear to you that I will love Anne as you love her." I will do everything in my power to make her happy. ”
Anne glanced at Keya happily, and her eyes were full of joy!
Alec just looked up and saw that, in despair, he screamed wildly, stood up and turned around and ran wildly. Theron shouted, "Alex!" and hurriedly chased after him.
Anne's body moved, and she was going to chase after her. But after hesitating, she immediately took Keya's hand and shouted to the onlookers: "From today onwards, I will be Keya's girlfriend." If you have an opinion, please put it forward now. If you don't have an opinion, then let's disperse!"
The crowd of onlookers saw that the show could not be seen, and they were not interested, and they dispersed one after another. Even if some people have opinions, where will they be raised at this time?
Anne smiled at Keya and said, "I'm sorry, I was too ostentatious in the morning and caused you trouble." In the future, I'll be a little more restrained!"
Keya smiled and said, "It's okay, sooner or later we will encounter some unpleasant things, I am mentally prepared for this." ”
Anne smiled, "I have it too, maybe tomorrow I have to duel with Judy or Diana!"
Keya said, "Go ahead, take some time to persuade him more." I'm going to have to persuade me here!"
Anne let go of her hand, took two steps back, and smiled, "Are you free tonight?"
Keya shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm afraid not, I'm sorry!"
Anne actually asked knowingly, and made a grimace at the moment, Gege smiled, waved his hand, turned around and began to leave.
Although the crowd dispersed, under a moonflower tree in the distance, Judy twisted her little face and was folding the branches in her hands hatefully. Suddenly, someone came up behind him. He gently put his arm around her shoulders and sighed, "Judy, alas, do you see? This is the man you love!"
Judy turned her face and immediately burst into tears of grievance, crying, "Diana!"
