Chapter 27: Parting

When Luna leaves, the dust clears.

Cross smiled and looked back at Al, who was still on the training grounds.

She walked over and whispered as she picked up Al's furry wolf head.

"What a straightforward and funny girl!"

Al looked up at Cross and wagged his tail in agreement.

As Cross was stroking Al, she suddenly plucked a handful of wolf hair from Al's head with a force on her hand.

Although it didn't hurt much, Al was startled when it happened suddenly.

Whew!

You sneak up on me!

Al immediately jumped sideways, preparing to escape from Kloss's side as much as possible.

But.

As soon as the word but appears, it is clear that Al's plan has failed.

Cross had already caught Al's wolf head with her slender-looking, yet powerful, legs.

Al was in the wind, kicking wildly, but still unable to move, let alone break out of Kloss's control.

Woo, here we go again!

This abominable woman!

Al resigned himself to his fate.

He gave up the struggle and simply lay on the ground.

In the face of the wolf cub, Cross laughed.

"You little guy is a bad guy too! I won't take a few wolf hairs from you for nothing, as Luna's future companion, I'll give you a gift too! ”

With that, Cross took out a metal nameplate engraved with runes, and whether Al wanted it or not, she fumbled for Al to bring it.

Just as she had given the plaque to Al to tie to her collar, Cross's gaze crossed his neck.

The necklace that had been worn around Al's neck early on attracted her attention.

Fixing the nameplate, Cross let go of Al, allowing him to catapult at breakneck speed.

At this moment, Cross also got up, and she reached out and patted Al's wolf head, and sighed thoughtfully.

"Well, I didn't expect Luna to give you this thing! Then the safety of this girl should be handed over to you in the future! ”

Al didn't understand Cross's words, but he understood the emotion.

Al stood with his head held high, responding to Cross's pleas with a wolf howl.

Woo, woo, woo~!!

This is the oath of the White Wolf Clan!

......

Time is in a hurry, and it never waits for anyone.

Cross had only stayed for a few days, and even if she was leaving today, there was nothing to pack.

After she took her belongings with her, she went to Dark's study.

Looking at Dark, who was immersed in his books, Cross walked over to the table and asked, "Where's Luna?" ”

Duck put down his pen and replied with a smile, "She quit with her neighbors." After all, I have lived here for six years and have been taken care of so much by everyone, so I should visit everyone before leaving.

Cross: "She's a good boy!" ”

Dark: "yes! ”

Cross: "You can see that you educated her very well. ”

Dark: "Hehe, I did my best! ”

Cross: "If Evely were still around, she would be proud of it, right?" ”

Hearing the name of his deceased wife, Dark's happy face darkened a lot.

He sighed and sighed.

"Maybe!"

I don't know what came to mind, and both of them fell into a brief silence.

After a sudden quiet, it seemed that time had slowed down.

After all, Duck is the master's family, and this situation is somewhat embarrassing to him.

In the end, it was Duck who took the initiative to break the deadlock.

He got up and walked over to Cross and spoke sincerely.

"Thank you!"

Cross smiled slightly and said, "If you want to thank me, let's take out something more sincere!" ”

Duck scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Woo, you also know that I am poor, and almost all the belongings in the family have been used to dredge up the relationship."

Perhaps Duck had already planned, he took out a bag from the drawer of the table as he spoke, held the bag in both hands and bowed, "If you don't dislike it, this is the only thing left in our family, please Lord Cross must accept it." ”

Hey, what a fool.

Cross took the bag from Dark.

Cross weighed it in disgust, and casually hung the bag around her waist.

Cross: "Alright, let's owe the rest of the money first!" As you know, a letter of recommendation from Central College is valuable! ”

Duck asked quite seriously, "Uh-huh! Would I like to write you an IOU? ”

Can't you hear I'm joking?

There is a limit to being stupid!

Cross was speechless and about to explode.

She waved her hand and said impatiently, "No, trust between friends is often more useful than notes." ”

Darker silently withdrew his hand that was reaching for the drawer, walked over to hold Cross's hands, and said sincerely, "I will definitely pay back the money I owe!" Also, I will definitely find a chance to repay this kindness! ”

Dark's sudden move startled Cross.

Her heart beat faster all of a sudden, and her whole exposed white skin was flushed.

Cross: "Woo! Let go, what are you doing! Let it go."

Duck said very sincerely, "I, Duck. Heathfield, swear here! ”

Looking at Dark's close face, coupled with his determined eyes, Cross blushed and heartbeat, and forgot to withdraw her hand.

Cross: "Woo! Swear, what swear ......"

Dark: "I'll definitely find a way to repay Lord Cross for your kindness!" ”

Cross finally breathed a sigh of relief, but seemed to feel a sense of loss.

"Got it! Let it go, why did you swear so much! ”

Darker quickly let go.

Cross rubbed her reddish hands, her heart mixed.

I don't know how many times this person has upset himself!

It's hard work to be friends with people like that, and their actions are often unpredictable.

You say he's smart, but he can't get to the point.

You call him stupid, and he often surprises you with painless accidents that overwhelm you.

I don't know if this guy is really stupid or fake.

Hey, it's better to stay away.

After calming down, Cross said to Dark, "I'm leaving." ”

Dark: "Okay, take care. ”

As she spoke, Cross had already arrived at the door.

Cross: "Take care, too! ”

After speaking, he slowly closed the door to the room

Darker turned to his desk in a bit of a daze, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw two leather bags on the desk.

The little one is more familiar, isn't that the money bag I handed to Cross?

Needless to say, the other, bigger and more drummed one knows what is going on.

Dark's sudden thought of something, he turned and chased after him, opened the door to say something to Cross, but there was no one behind the door.

After all, he is a veteran assassin, and he has practiced the ability to come and go without a trace.

Duck looked at the empty hallway, not knowing what was going on in his mind.

This kindness, I, Duck. Heathfield, will definitely pay it back, definitely!
