At Ichritic Academy, the sun-drenched forest paths in the morning are particularly peaceful.

In the distance, the botanical garden of the Alchemy Courtyard was full of birds, jumping among the treetops, and from time to time they made melodious chirps.

“……”

After hurriedly escaping from Boss Cat's restaurant, Ranchi and Hubertarian walked down the road leading to the main building of the Magic Workshop, and both of them tacitly agreed that they did not speak.

Now that the end of the semester is approaching, it is almost the assessment week, there are almost no new courses, and the figures of students who attend and leave classes have become less common on campus, and the two of them have returned to the campus after a long absence, feeling as if half a year ago was still yesterday.

Finally.

They found a familiar landmark ahead.

In the direction of the Wizard's Academy, you will pass a cold-pressed fruit juice drink shop with more than 30 kinds of pure juices, mixed juices and vegetable juices, and before leaving Ichrita, you will often see many students holding a glass of this drink after class.

The store that opened last year is now an old one.

The two glanced at each other, stopped here for a moment, and bought two glasses without queuing.

Hubertian remembers that the two of them were walking on this road after listening to Teresa's "General Knowledge of Magical Genealogy" class in the Learning and Education Building, and they chatted while holding cold-pressed juice, and then decided to go to the North Continent to visit Asquesan and open this closing project.

I didn't expect it to be completed now.

I can only sigh that time flies so fast.

From the conflicted northern continent back to the settled city of Ichrita, the pace of life seems to have slowed down, and new pleasures and dining can be seen everywhere.

It would be a very happy thing to be able to enjoy Ixerita's life leisurely without worry or pressure.

At this moment, I also feel that I can understand Ranchi's mood of wanting to retire early, as well as the daily life that Tata has already lived.

Huberian passed the time by flattening the straw and taking a sip of juice, occasionally paying attention to Ranchi, who always felt extremely embarrassed since leaving Boss Cat's restaurant.

He obviously understood how abstract he and Tata had just been.

As a bystander, Huberian is not good at speaking first, so if Ranch doesn't speak, she pretends that nothing has happened and stays with him.

"We're going to challenge the Shadow World again, and we're about to set off for the Cress Empire."

Ranch and Hubertian briefly crossed the treeless intersection of the forest path, looked at the square buildings clearly visible in the distance, and muttered to themselves.

In the heart of the College of Icherita, stands the huge building, surrounded by the districts of the four faculties.

The various new and classical buildings in the academy, although each with its own unique charm, are slightly inferior to the building in the center, which seals the door to the void of the shadow world.

Soon, they will have to dream back to the history of tens of thousands of years ago.

"yes."

Hubertarian also sighed.

I thought it was out of reach, but I didn't expect that after just a year, they already had a little hope of going to the Cress Empire to find the whereabouts of Duke Miya.

You must know that when we first met a year ago, she was just a third-order assassin, and Lanchi was still a second-order white mage.

Right now...... She is still normal, that is, she has risen relatively quickly, and Lanchi has mutated into the spiritual leader of the Protos Empire.

"Hoo ......"

After Ranch drank the juice, he finally breathed a big sigh of relief.

"Hugh Bainn, thank you for bringing me out."

Lan Qi sighed with an expression of the rest of his life.

The cold sweetness was like a midsummer breeze, bringing him to life.

I felt my heart beating, and the hot thing like magma in my chest spread through my body with the pulse.

It's never been so exciting.

Although it has paid some price for a lifetime, it is true that the physical will be extremely exciting.

"Little things."

Huberian shook her head.

She believed that Lanch had learned enough lessons this time.

This time it's all come to this point, he shouldn't dare next time.

There was another moment of silence between the two.

"By the way, what do you think of Tata?"

Huberian asked tentatively.

She thinks back to the dialogue between Ranchi and Tata, and she always feels a little weird in her heart.

Although he knew that they were insane because of the great love of the poet.

But she was inexplicably worried that if no one came to interrupt them, would the two of them have the willingness to fake the show and follow the trend.

“…… My beloved master and craftsman. ”

Ranch paused slightly, then replied with a smile.

"Really?"

Huberian's voice was full of disbelief.

"Uh, what about the New Year's Friend?"

Ranch thought for a moment and described it a little more accurately.

“……”

Hubertarian couldn't say anything.

I underestimated you.

The secluded forest path is like a brilliant emerald, and the bluestone pavement depicts an infinite number of unrepeating patterns.

The two of them walked on this road for a long time each time.

"Lanchi, don't mess with Tata anymore, okay? Listen to me. ”

Hubertian struggled for a long time, and gradually clenched her palms.

It's one thing for Ranch to listen or not, it's another to persuade or not, and sometimes he might have to be a little stronger so he listens to him.

“…… That's how Tata and I have always gotten along. ”

Ranch whispered.

“……”

Huberian didn't know if he was confused about whether he had provoked Tata or if he couldn't resist Tata's temptation.

Seeing Lan Qi's aggrieved appearance, she relented again.

Not letting him interact with Tata seems to be more uncomfortable than killing him.

Although the result after the interaction may be worse than killing him.

But he just loves to play.

Huberian found out, and playing with Tata was an addictive feeling for Ranchi.

"If you continue like this, I won't be able to save you......"

Huberian said in a feeble voice.

"No, no, no, you have to save me, my angel Hubelian."

Ranch immediately looked at Huberian.

Huber Ann is his greatest confidence.

“……”

Seeing Lanch like this, Hubertarian bit her lip lightly.

"Hubertarian."

Ranch called her name again, and her tone flinched a halfway back.

"I'll save you, don't worry, I'll protect you."

Huberian was stunned for a while, and finally shook her head in agreement.

Although after saying this, she felt a little regretful, and always had a sense of foreboding, but there was nothing she could do with him.

But after thinking about it, it shouldn't be a big problem, this time it is Lanfu who will take revenge, Lanqi will overturn, and next time I really can't find his overturning point, unless Tata doesn't play according to the routine, or she Hugh Bailian has a problem with her thinking, or Lanqi accidentally eats wine, or the woman in the North Continent inexplicably crosses the sea and so on.

They are all small probability events, which can be ignored, otherwise it will be a bit of a bull's horn.

Huberian nodded in assurance.
