Chapter Eighty-Eight: But My Heart Is Weak
Han Shuo, who had always been worried that he would be discovered by Duke, had completely dispelled this scruple within a few minutes of coming to the Undead Department.
The reason was that Han Shuo came to the Department of the Undead, and when he saw Carey and Borg cleaning the stone statues on the way, Han Shuo naturally greeted the two, but Carey and Borg couldn't recognize Han Shuo, but they were honestly afraid and didn't know what to do.
After Han Shuo revealed his identity, Borg and Carey carefully identified Han Shuo, and then spoke to Han Shuo in an even more timid and frightened manner.
By now, Han Shuo was no longer a miscellaneous servant of the undead department, but had instead become a student inside, naturally a step above the two of them. In addition, after the students of the Undead Department returned from the Dark Forest, they deliberately exaggerated Han Shuo's ability, which made Carey and Borg, who had had a holiday with Han Shuo, even more afraid of Han Shuo, for fear that Han Shuo would trouble them again.
It's just that Han Shuo didn't care about the two of them, instead he took out a bronze mirror and looked at himself with a happy face, only then did he suddenly find that compared to himself a few months ago, his appearance had indeed undergone earth-shaking changes, his original thin and weak figure had become much taller and stronger, and his weak face had become much more resolute because of a series of dangerous experiences, and his silhouette also appeared angular and angular, from the appearance of a half-grown child before to a heroic young man.
Since even the two people who knew each other, Borg and Carey, could not easily distinguish themselves, Han Shuo no longer worried about Duke Eric's affairs, especially after Candida promised him to help him solve the worries of the "afterimage", Han Shuo suddenly relaxed, did not continue to hide his head and tail, and returned to the undead department of the Babylon Demon Martial Arts Academy openly.
"Hey, it's Brian, you haven't been back to the academy for a long time, I thought something had happened to you!" Amy from the Undead Department was walking on the way to the teaching building, and suddenly exclaimed happily when she saw Han Shuo.
"Hello, Amy. Han Shuo greeted her with a smile and walked with her to the Dark Department's teaching building.
When Han Shuo came to the door of the undead classroom, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned for a while. Two months ago, he could only stand outside the window with a broom and listen to Jean's lecture while he was cleaning. Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for him to become a student of the undead department, and he was qualified to enter this classroom, where he sat there and listened to the lectures with the students.
"Don't be stunned, it's about to start the second class, let's go in quickly!" Seeing Han Shuo standing out of the window in a daze, Amy, who had already walked to the door, suddenly urged in a loud voice.
Han Shuo immediately woke up, smiled kindly at Amy, nodded and walked into the classroom. As soon as Han Shuo came in, the eyes of several students inside all focused on Han Shuo, especially Lisa, who was lazily squinting in the back row, suddenly her eyes brightened, and she stood up and waved to Han Shuo and said, "This way, come this way!"
Next to Buck and Bella, as well as some other academies, their eyes looking at Han Shuo were full of weirdness, and they whispered something.
"Brian is back, hehe, Amy, do you believe that rumor?" Athena beckoned Amy to sit down, and suddenly asked Amy in a low voice.
"I don't believe it, Miss Fanny and Brian, no matter how you look at it, nothing can happen! Camilla, the old witch, likes to tell the truth the most, can you believe what she says?" said Amy, pouting and shaking her head.
“.........”
Not only Amy and Athena, but on the way to Lisa, Han Shuo heard all the students discussing his affairs with Fanny. What happened to Han Shuo being discovered by Kemira in Fanny's bed that day was said by them to have noses and eyes, as if they had experienced it themselves, saying that he and Fanny had become a couple who had been caught cheating on them.
Han Shuo was dumbfounded in his heart, he didn't expect that Kemira to have so many mouths, and now he actually got these students of the undead department to know, which also meant that I am afraid that those teachers, including Fanny herself, must have received the news earlier.
When Han Shuo sat down next to Lisa with a wry smile, Lisa's originally excited expression changed to a censorship attitude, and her eyes first turned around Han Shuo's body in surprise, as if she was feeling the changes in Han Shuo now, and then said in a cold voice: "Hmph, what you said they said, is it true or not, you and Teacher Fanny can't really have anything to do, right?"
"Lisa, they don't believe me, don't even you. Even if I were this kind of person, Teacher Fanny would not be such a person, it is really ridiculous that someone really believes such a ridiculous thing!" Han Shuo explained to Lisa softly with a bitter face.
As soon as Han Shuo said this, Lisa exhaled lightly, and her face softened, but she was still a little skeptical and said, "There is no wind and no waves, you ran to Teacher Fanny's room in the middle of the night, this should be a fact, right? Although Kemira's old witch has a very stinky mouth, she won't slander you without any basis, right?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Han Shuo said, "I just went over to ask Teacher Fanny some questions, that old witch used the question to play, and I couldn't stop her, she likes to say what she wants, anyway, I have nothing to lose!"
"However, this has a great impact on the reputation of Teacher Fanny. Since then, everyone must think that Ms. Fanny has an inappropriate private life, especially since you are still her student, and maybe the school will let her pay attention to the influence or something. Lisa frowned and reminded Han Shuo.
As soon as Lisa said this, Han Shuo suddenly came to his senses, and suddenly felt that he was really selfish, thinking about himself all the time, and not thinking about Fanny at all.
Just when Han Shuo was secretly blaming himself, Jean had already walked into the classroom with a thick magic book in his arms. After Jean came in, he glanced around the room and saw Han Shuo sitting in the back row, his face suddenly turned cold.
The lecture had just begun, and Jean suddenly stopped, looked at Han Shuo behind him with a wicked smile, and said, "Brian, you haven't taken a class since you became a student of the Undead Department, will the knowledge I am talking about now be a little more advanced for you, can you understand it?"
After experiencing the trial of the Dark Forest with Jean, Han Shuo understood that Jean was not a bad person, but it was only because of Fanny that he deliberately made things difficult for himself, but Jean was still a well-cultivated person, and he didn't go too far for some of Han Shuo's troubles, so Han Shuo didn't have any hatred for Jean that was difficult to resolve.
This time, because of some unbearable rumors about Fanny and him, he must have made this vinegar jar Jean jealous again, and he will use the topic to play and want to make a fool of himself here.
"Mr. Jean, I have generally understood the exact meaning of what you have said through reading the magic book, so I think I can understand the content of your lecture, please don't worry about me. Han Shuo leaned back, looked at Jean and said with a smile.
"Oh, if we can learn magic by ourselves through the magic book, then how can our Babylon Demon Martial Academy still exist. Hehe, in that case, I ask you what types of magic can be divided into according to the different ways of release?"
"It is divided into four categories: spells, primers, gestures, and magic arrays. Spells are used to communicate magical elements through spells to achieve the purpose of releasing magic, and primers include magic scrolls......"
Han Shuo maintained a lazy posture and smoothly uttered a series of definitions, including some of his own realizations. After saying this, Jean was obviously a little surprised, first stunned slightly, then nodded and said: "Yes, it seems that you already know the basic knowledge in these books, so I will ask you some other knowledge." ”
Then Jean frowned and asked Han Shuo a few questions, from the most basic magic knowledge at the beginning, to some magic points that only junior magicians can grasp later, all of which Jean asked. Han Shuo talked rhetorically and explained these issues one by one.
During this process, Jean and the students in the classroom all looked at Han Shuo with surprised expressions, as if they had never imagined that Han Shuo would be able to figure out so much esoteric knowledge in the short time intervening. Jean looked a little impatient with sweat on his forehead, snorted softly, and asked a question again.
"I won't do this!" Han Shuo was stunned for a moment, and replied honestly, this question was already the knowledge that an intermediate magician should master, and Han Shuo really didn't know much about it.
When Jean finally smiled and was about to say a few words to save face, Lisa said impatiently, "Teacher Jean, if he can do anything, then why are you still here to listen to your lectures?"
When the words came to his mouth, he was blocked by Lisa's words, Jean looked a little embarrassed, slapped the table with a dry smile, and said, "Okay, then I won't ask, let's continue the class." ”
"Why did you suddenly understand so much knowledge?" Lisa shrank her head and asked Han Shuo in a low voice.
"Didn't I tell you just now, I only knew this knowledge after asking Teacher Fanny, otherwise how could there be rumors spread by that old woman in Kemira. Han Shuo replied, and then really began to listen carefully to the lecture, some of the content that Jean said, including some intermediate and advanced magic knowledge, was indeed what Han Shuo needed to master now, so Han Shuo did not have any resistance because of Jean's jealousy.
After class, Lisa seemed to have something to say to Han Shuo, but Han Shuo didn't give her a chance, and immediately walked to Fanny's laboratory after leaving the classroom.
"Feiqi, I've explained this magic many times, and I think with your understanding, you should have understood why you still couldn't successfully unleash it. Han Shuo stood in front of the door of the laboratory, his sensitive ears allowing Han Shuo to clearly hear the speech inside.
"Teacher Fanny, I think you should already know what I want about you. Why didn't you give me any chance, but were willing to be with that lowly handyman, why?" Fei Qi complained strongly from inside, and Han Shuo gently pulled the door of the laboratory a little opener, and he could clearly see the anger on Fei Qi's face.
Fanny, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses, was wearing a middle-distance magic robe, with a helpless look on her face, and sighed and said, "Feiqi, I'm getting more and more disappointed in you now. First of all, Brian is now a student of mine like you, and you shouldn't treat him like a handyman anymore, and I find that every time you come to me to answer a question, you don't pay attention at all, and you don't know what to think all the time, and Brian is much better than you in this regard. ”
"Brian again, that damned handyman, what's better than me?Why would you want to be with him and not give me the slightest chance? Could it be true that the witch of Camilla is telling you, and you shamelessly slept with him?" Feich's face grew more and more angry, and he lowered his voice almost roaring.
"Smack"
Feige was slapped by Fanny, Fanny was really angry, looked at Feiqi with an indifferent expression, and said: "I think I have nothing to say to you anymore, in the past, I said that I would talk to you about feelings after you advanced to a high-level magician."
But now, I see that something is not quite right with you, I can tell you clearly, there is absolutely no possibility between us, I hope you can give up all illusions, if you still have problems with magic in the future, please look for me in the trial ground or in the classroom, you are no longer welcome in this laboratory, please leave here now?"
"So you've been lying to me, haha, it's good, very good. You asked me to talk about feelings after I advanced to a high-level magician, but that Brian is just a miscellaneous servant of you, but she already has a special case, a hypocritical and shameless woman, and I will never believe your words again. Feige covered his face, laughed hatefully, and walked straight outside the lab.
Han Shuo took a few steps back, hid his body in the corner, and when Fei Qi left, he stared at Fei Qi's distant back coldly for a few moments, and after stopping for a while, he walked into Fanny's laboratory with a natural expression.
After Han Shuo came in, he saw that Fanny's consciousness was a little dazed, her hands were weakly propped up on the round table, her head was lowered and she sighed softly, and muttered to herself in a weak voice: "Maybe Feiqi is right, I am really a hypocritical and shameless woman, I seem to have really violated some guidelines......
Fan Ni's low murmur, Han Shuo also heard it clearly, but he didn't understand the meaning of Fan Ni's words, he didn't know what she meant, and after thinking about it, Han Shuo stretched out his finger and knocked on the round table in front of him.
"Get out of here!" Fanny suddenly raised her head, glared at Han Shuojiao and shouted, and then as soon as she saw that the object had become Han Shuo, the expression on her face became very strange, first stunned and then startled, her eyes seemed to want to hide something, and finally her expression returned to normal, she glanced at Han Shuo angrily, and said, "What are you doing here?"
"Nothing, just ask some questions. Han Shuo looked at Han Shuo strangely and replied.
"What did you hear, what did you just see?" Fanny's delicate face changed, and she suddenly glared at Han Shuo with hatred and said, "You must have heard it all, you guy with perverted ears! Don't you know that eavesdropping on other people's conversations is a very impolite act?"
"Uh...... Actually, I don't want to hear it, but they fall into my ears by themselves, and I can't do anything about it?" Han Shuo spread his hands recklessly, indicating that he really didn't mean it, and then his expression was solemn, and he looked at Fanny and said, "That Kemira is very hateful, I don't care, but she slandered you and had a bad impact on your reputation, do you plan to let her go like this?"
"Forget it, that's the kind of person the old witch is. Anyway, the two of us don't have anything, what others like to say has nothing to do with us, the more we explain, the more they will think that we are weak-hearted, just leave them alone, anyway, we are not afraid of shadows. Fanny sighed, and seemed a little worried, but she said something that was calming.
"But my heart is weak!" Han Shuo said with a bitter face.
"Damn, what's wrong with your heart?" Suddenly, Fanny's delicate face turned red, but her expression was angry, and she looked at Han Shuo and scolded in a low voice.
"Because of my mistakes, others will misunderstand you so much, I feel sorry for you, of course I will be empty-hearted. Han Shuo explained to Fanny in a serious manner.
As soon as Han Shuo said this, Fanny's face was slightly stunned, and then she reacted, and said angrily, "It turns out that this kind of heart is weak, I thought you meant something else?"
"What else do you mean?" Han Shuo asked.
"No, nothing. As if to hide something, Fanny hurriedly said, and then immediately changed the topic and asked Han Shuo, "You came to me this time, what's the problem?"
Han Shuo was about to open his mouth to answer, when he suddenly sensed that someone was coming, and instead of answering, he looked at the door. After a short while, Han Shuo saw the Wind Magister Duke walking into Fanny's room with a kind smile on his face.
"Teacher Fanny, are you free today, I would like to ask you some more questions?" said Duke as he came in, smiling at Fanny.
Then frowning, Duke glanced at Han Shuo, Han Shuo was shocked, but the expression on his face was very normal, looking at him in surprise and confusion, as if it was the first time he saw Duke and wanted to know his identity and origin.
