With the information of the flying monster, Rogge did not immediately lead the team to Holke City.

Their cost is only as high as that of the heavily armored knights of the Viper Order, and it takes time to regain their status.

Orfina's little belly "gurgling" shook the sky, eager to tell everyone that she was hungry, and the little girl covered her hands with an embarrassed expression.

Instead of worrying about Holker City, Rogge did what he should have done most at the moment - cooking.

As soon as he started cooking for Orfina, Rogge's physical exhaustion and the slight anxiety caused by various worries were swept away, like a singing food machine.

"I'll stir-fry and put some chili peppers on my side, your appetite is very delicious."

"I'm low, I'm high, stir-frying, stir-frying, and spooning."

"I know best what ...... in the pot"

Orfina looked at Rogge, who was dancing the big iron pot as if he was fighting, and said weakly: "Brother, hurry up, I can't even lift my hands, I'm going to starve to death." ”

With the speed of the bell, Filia shoved a slice of jerky into the little girl's mouth.

Orfina swallowed it without chewing, and suddenly her neck stalked, and she said vaguely: "Water, water......"

Filia quickly patted her on the back, "Cough it up!" ”

"No, don't, I don't have the energy to cough, I don't want to spit out the meat, I want to drink water."

Filia didn't have any water, so she took a bottle of potion and poured it into Orfina's mouth without even looking at it.

Orfina finally smoothed the jerky down, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly summoned a small light.

The light elemental spirit Xiao Light dispersed and shone on Ofina with a burst of holy light, suppressing the little girl's somewhat green face.

"Bad sister, do you want to monopolize your brother? Feed me poison! Orfina lay on her side and crossed her waist, puffing out her little face, pale from exhaustion.

Filia picked up the empty flask and looked at it, revealing a green skull on it.

"Na...... Nana, I'm sorry. Filia knew that she had done something bad, and she didn't know how to coax her, so she simply hugged her.

"Then you help me find what Canxing wants to eat, it must have collected a lot of the best Warcraft meat, maybe the belly is big!"

"Good!" Filia agreed very simply, asked Rogge about the location of the bright star, and directly summoned the Crimson Flame to ride to find it.

Rogge took the opportunity to help Filia say a few kind words, "Nana, Filia is in a hurry to see that you choked, don't blame her." ”

"I'm all poisoned, you don't care about me!"

"You're a light mage......

"I don't have any magic at all!"

"......" Rogge shut his mouth very familiarly, and sped up the speed of the spoon.

By the time the little girl had eaten enough, most of the day had passed, and Rogge and Philia leaned together tiredly, feeling more tired than killing a beast king-level demonic beast.

The backlash of the angel's arrival is actually not much weaker than the soul of the burning sun, but it just happens that Rogge can handle it well.

If Orfina doesn't eat in time to replenish her energy, not to mention the loss of vitality, her own strength will also decline, and there will be endless troubles in the future.

Orfina regained her spirits, and used the blessing technique to refresh the spirits of the two.

"Nana, save some strength later." Rogge instructed.

"Hmm." Orfina whispered, but Rogge knew that if something like this happened, she would do it with all her might.

So the best way to deal with it is to be by her side when you encounter this kind of thing in the future.

"Rogge, when are we leaving?" Madeleine, who is in relatively good shape, asked.

During the meal, Rogge informed the team about the flying monsters, and Holke City was everyone's second home, and they must go over to support.

Rogge said: "Have a good rest today, and set off early tomorrow morning." ”

"Brother, will it be too late?" Orfina said, and her little face, which had just regained its crystal clearness, was worried again, and ...... Kick oneself.

She blamed herself for not arriving in time for Garin City and for not being able to save Teacher William.

If the road had been faster, would he have been able to arrive a few minutes earlier and save William?

Rogge, who grew up with Orfina, understood what the girl was thinking, and he rubbed the girl's head and said, "It's not too late, we all did our best, didn't we?" The situation at Holker City is unclear and we have to be ready to take on the challenge in good shape. ”

"Hmm." Orfina closed her eyes and enjoyed Rogge's head-touching.

Karin, who was sitting next to everyone, saw the loss of her favorite student, and said loudly: "Nana, don't blame yourself, William...... He died to protect me, and I am the one to blame. ”

"Dean Karin......"

"Don't say anything, accompany me to see William off for the last time."

Outside Garin.

A simple funeral was performed for William, cremation.

William lay quietly on a bed made of tree branches, his face pale, and the smile that comforted Karin in his last moments still hung on his lips.

The smile is affectionate and full of reluctance.

Karin cried again, and she learned that the phrase "tears dried" was wrong in the original script's most touching tragic scenes.

She is now the heroine of the tragedy.

Karin finally straightened William's shirt, which was smooth enough, kissed him deeply on the forehead, got up, and took the torch from Rogge's hand.

"Goodbye, my love."

Karin sets the wooden bed on fire.

The flames gradually ignited and spread, enveloping William inside, and the "crackling" sound of burning pierced Karin's heart.

Karin's shoulders twitched, her lips pursed, trying not to cry in front of her students.

Rogge watched in silence at William in the flames.

This teacher, who is always smiling and likes to look like a master in class, will soon turn into a puff of dust, and as long as the wind is stronger, it will be blown away.

For the first time, Rogge experienced what it was like to die of someone familiar, and he hated it.

Rogge looked at Orfina beside him, the girl's eyes were glistening with tears, her fists were clenched, and her nails with sky-blue nail polish were embedded in the flesh, which hurt in Rogge's heart.

Rogge took Offina's small hand, which had begun to drip blood, and the little hand instantly relaxed, gently interlocking with Rogge's ten fingers.

The relaxed atmosphere at the dinner table had long since been replaced by sadness, and everyone bowed together to pray for the venerable teacher as the flames were about to be extinguished.

In the midst of the ashes, a shiny object caught Karin's attention.

Karin approached and picked it up, pausing to see what it was, and then she frantically wiped her clothes, not minding the ashes staining them.

When the ashes had receded completely, a ring of the utmost beauty appeared before Karin's eyes, a large aqua-blue gemstone reflecting a soft glow like William's eyes when he gazed at her affectionately.

On the inside of the ring, her name and William's name were wrapped in a large heart.

The idea is cheesy, but Karin loves it.

Karin slowly put the ring on her left ring finger and looked at the sunlight for a moment, first smiling, then holding the ring to her heart and crying.

Rogge couldn't bear to look at her anymore, and closed his eyes and looked up.

Karin had cried enough for the time being, slowly stood up, collected William's ashes, put them into an ordinary wooden box, and put them away.

She started with Rogge and ended at Lunt, looking over one by one, carefully examining them.

"You ...... All grown up. Karin's eyes lit up.

The appearance of everyone has not changed, but after many battles, the temperament tempered has long been different.

Karin thought of Lunt descending from the sky to help her stop the deadly tail hammer of the Startailed Beast, remembering that Orfina was standing alone in the gap in the wall to block the surging tide of beasts, and that Rog riding a dragon with a colorful phoenix soared into the sky, and felt that all this was unreal.

How nice would it be if it was a dream? But Karin knows that this is not a dream at all, this is reality, a bloody and hopeful reality.

"You're all grown up." Karin repeated, with joy and worry in her tone.

She was glad that her students' strength had improved so much, surpassing her, and they were all able to save the crisis.

She was worried about how much hard work and sweat, and how much fighting and ...... behind this rapid improvement Blood.

If she could, Karin hoped that they would take their time, stay away from all dangers, and grow up happily.

But she knew it was just her selfish wish. These children will never stop, and the road may be even more perilous in the future.

"Rogge, Nana, and everyone, I don't know how you came here during this time, you must have suffered a lot, right? I don't want anything but a safe life. ”

"Dean Karin, don't worry." Seeing that everyone was still immersed in a sad atmosphere, Filia said first, "Rogge, he's cautious, we'll be fine with him." ”

Karin's gaze was fixed on Philia, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, as if she was looking at her own daughter-in-law.

"Filia, huh? It's beautiful! ”

Filia smiled generously.

Karin continued to look at Filia for a few seconds, remembering how intimate she had been with Rogge during the meal, then at Rogge, and then her gaze wandered between the two.

"You and Rogge ......"

"Hmm."

"Yes, that's great!" Karin laughed for the first time since the reunion, and suddenly thought of something, and stole a glance at Orfina.

The little girl was very calm, took Rogge's hand, looked at the circle of charred marks in a daze, and didn't know what she was thinking.

Karin bit her lip and her heart ached again, this time for the sake of the group of young people in front of her.

Originally, at their age, they should enjoy a good college life, and the wind and waves outside the academy should be shielded by elders like her and William.

But now, it's the other way around.

She calls them "children", but they are no longer children, but "big shots" who have the ability to stir up the storm.

Karin retracted her thoughts, looked at Filia again, and smiled involuntarily back on her face, "It seems that you have been through a lot, are you interested in telling me your wonderful story?" ”

Karin held out her hand to Filia, who took it, and promised, "Okay." Rogge has a great book called ......"

Karin and Philia made their way into the city, and Philia's storytelling grew farther and farther away.

Rogge gently squeezed Orfina's tender little hand and said softly, "Nana, go back." ”

"Stand with me a little longer."

"Okay."

"Brother."

"Huh?"

"I want to become a supreme light mage as soon as possible."

Legend has it that a supreme-level light mage can master the method of resurrecting the dead, but there is no way to verify it, because in all the books and records of the Nalan Empire, it is not mentioned that there are light mages who have reached the supreme level.

Orfina said, "become as soon as possible", although it is only two more words than "become", but it has too much more confidence.

She said this on the premise that she could become a supreme-level light mage, but it was just fast and slow.

When other people hear this, they may think that Orfina is talking and playing, and even think that the little girl is unbelievable.

No matter how high the talent is, there is no such thing as the ancients, how can we guarantee that there will be someone who will come later? Maybe the Light Mage is different from other departments, and the limit is the Great Magus?

But Rogge is different, he is convinced that Orfina must be able to.

"Well, don't get too tired." Rogge rubbed his sister's little head lovingly.
