Under the same night sky, Tilan and the others were also sitting around the campfire, Valk was inspecting the miniature vigilant AI set up on the periphery of the camp, Simu was wiping the barrel of the gun and sorting out the magazines, Avne crouched by the fire and looked at the slowly boiling cans in it, while Tilan sat writing and occasionally looked up at the warm red campfire.

"Avne." This soft call woke up the goldfish who was a little dazed.

"What's the matter?" She stood up slightly.

"Nothing." Tiran shook her head, then looked at her familiar but slightly unfamiliar companion.

Although Avne is a member of the club, the two have never spoken together alone, and Avne is very low-key in the club, not as famous as she is in the school.

"Is there something on your mind?" She could see that this flame goldfish who was supposed to shine was far less active in the community than she knew, and she seemed to have something on her mind all the time, occasionally in a daze.

"This ...... Yes, there is. The blonde girl turned her face away, although she was a little embarrassed, but maybe she had become familiar with everyone recently, and Avne no longer covered up her past pride and pride.

"Come on." Tilan patted the empty seat beside her and beckoned Avne over.

Although she has the look of a confidant big sister, she feels more cute than Avne's more petite body.

However, Avne didn't care about such a thing, and walked over and sat down next to the quiet, dark-haired girl.

Avni is about 2cm taller than Tilan, because she often practices dancing, her body is also a little more fleshy, and her wide blonde hair and single ponytail are also more eye-catching than Tilan's long black hair, so she looks 'bigger'.

"How did Avne come up with the idea of joining the Society in the first place, was she bewitched by Aaron?" The girl really doesn't give face to the special advisers of the club.

"Ah~ no." Avne shook her head, though she wanted to laugh, and then her expression fell silent.

"Aaron and I have known each other for a long time, because of our father's relationship, we also visited each other's homes when we were young, and I introduced him to our club at that time, because I knew he was interested in these things." As she spoke, her left hand unconsciously brushed the hair in front of her.

"But at that time, I was all thinking about advancing quickly, so I didn't ask about the follow-up, and I didn't meet Ti Lan until Teacher N took us to train later." She remembered those days at the end of last year.

"The first time I saw Ti Lan at that time, I was also curious, probably what you said at the freshman ceremony, and you are so valued by the school, there should be something special.。

"Sure enough, in training, you beat a few of us one-to-many, and I admired it even more at that time."

"Later, Aaron asked me if I wanted to come over too, saying that it would be more lively, relax my mood, and not indulge in failure."

"So, I'm here."

"Actually, after experiencing a lot during this time, I am also reflecting, reflecting on my past life and some views." She looked at the campfire not far away, the reflection of the fire in her eyes swaying slightly.

"Ti Lan should have also heard about the situation in my family, because my father is a high-ranking official in the Star Domain government, so he has attracted more attention since he was a child, and it seems that there should be nothing to complain about in such a family situation, but people are not rational machines."

"When I was a child, because of my high talent, many people expected me to look forward to me, and I have always been among the best, whether it is grades, extraordinary promotion speed, or various other aspects, it can be said that I have been praised by adults."

"I'm really obsessed with that feeling, the kind of goldfish that is surrounded and praised, like a peerless independent genius, a rising star of the future, and a goldfish that everyone admires."

"Still, these are just illusions." As she spoke, she lowered her head gradually, looked at her knees, and pinched the flesh on her legs with one hand and twisted slightly, as if she wanted to remind herself of this pain.

With a long breath, she let go of her hand, and then looked at the campfire not far away, "Fate has given me a lot of gifts, but not as much as I thought, this is the source of my previous psychological gap and discomfort." ”

"So Avne is going forward?" Seeing that she seemed to have some ideas, Tilan spoke.

"Although I am still a little unwilling, it seems that I can only accept this result, choose an advanced template with low difficulty, and then give up the previous aura of eye-catching genius and be a relatively ordinary person." That being said, it is undoubtedly painful for people who have had many expectations since childhood.

"Although the reality is not so perfect, it doesn't mean that you have to go to the other extreme, completely give up your past dreams, isn't it a genius even if you fail, shouldn't it?" To this, Tilan shook her head.

"I didn't say that you have to be a genius, the first place, the most perfect person, to be successful and happy, this kind of thing is just a subconscious stereotype." She slowly stood up.

"Life is not an exam, there is no standard answer, and no one compares you with the first place, if there is anything you want to do, do it, ranking or something, just the result of outsiders looking at flowers in the fog, the real situation is only what you have done and have not done, just find out the objective reasons and the difficulties that have not been broken."

"What fate, genius, perfection, are just illusions imagined by outsiders, concepts used to depict and easy to understand, the real world does not have so many restrictions, as long as it is completed and the destination is reached, the twists and turns of the journey will not be ridiculed."

"Okay, now can you tell me where the problem is, maybe I can help you take a look and discuss and solve it together." Holding Afne's shoulders, the black-haired singer leaned back to the firelight, radiating a glow that warmed and understood Avne.

Although he is only sixteen or seventeen years old, he is a little cute, but he also has a faint feeling that people want to rely on.

"This ......" Efni bit her lip and slowly talked about the problems she usually encountered, while Tiran listened carefully and her fingers gently swiped in the wind, constantly simulating the problems that Efni encountered.

Although the two are about the same age, for some special reasons, she can perceive magic more delicately and keenly than others, manipulating Manna to make her look what she wants.

As a result, the topic shifted from illusory emotions to real objective issues, and Avne slowly discovered the points that had been missed in the past, and the original empty heart was once again consolidated, as if she was standing on the earth again, instead of falling all the time, which was terrifying.

"Look, that's right."

Around the bonfire, the black-haired and black-dressed girl raised her palm, and a fireball was quietly suspended, and the flames in it continued to converge and rotate, constantly riveting to form a tightly knit imprint pattern, like a precise and perfect instrument, until finally, a flawless flame ball was suspended in the air, the heat in it was restrained, and the internal imprint patterns were completely stable and stable.

"That's ......"

The problem that blocked her so much time was solved in just over ten minutes, and Avena looked at the quietly burning fireball in a daze, and there were many things she wanted to vent and talk about, but in the end there was only one sentence.

"Thank you, Tilan."

But I don't fully agree with what you say, because there is such a perfect genius in the world, and she is standing in front of me now.
