Chapter Forty-Six: An Abrupt Hindsight

Today's noon sun was much brighter than usual, making the gradually cold weather appear to be warming.

Rogers used a rope to drop the magic book on his waist, and with the "Detailed Explanation of the Basic Magic Array" in his hand, he rushed to the classroom alone.

At this time, the magic guide book was still very quiet, which made him a little unaccustomed.

He also forced the Shadow Demon into the magic guide book, and according to Alina, this Shadow Demon could sleep soundly within a week without her help.

The class was held upstairs in the theory classroom, and many first-year students naturally avoided Rogers when they saw him walking indoors, and even deliberately looked away.

Rogers touched his chin, thinking that he didn't find anything wrong with him, wondering why these classmates had become more evasive than usual.

Without further thought, he raised his eyes and looked at the extremely large classroom in front of him.

Unlike ordinary classrooms, there are no regular chairs and long tables, but hundreds of workstations of the same size.

Each three-meter-long table is lined with stacks of stone slabs about one meter long, as well as various tools that appear to be used for drawing and chiseling.

"With such a large venue, how can the instructor teach?"

Rogers couldn't help but start guessing how the instructor would teach for a moment.

The content of the class in the game is basically just to use cutscenes to describe what class was taken, and then what skills or attribute points were obtained, and did not make a specific presentation.

Before he could continue pondering, a pair of slightly cold little hands covered his eyes, and then a playful question with a smile came:

"Guess who covered your eyes~"

Rogers sighed, not knowing how to respond. Rufia is a silly child, if she were to cover her eyes, she would definitely ask "Guess who I am", not the current one.

"Is Alice watching from afar?"

As soon as he finished his helpless question, he immediately heard a soft response with a jokingness.

"Yes."

As soon as she finished speaking, Alina lowered her hands and walked in front of Rogers with a subtle smile on her lips.

Her fan-like snow-white eyelashes fluttered slightly, and her eyes flashed with a look of triumph.

It was the first time Rogers had seen this kind of expression since he had been with Aliana.

[Alice activates the Intuition Bonus and is perceiving your magic item "Magic Book"......]

Seeing the pop-up prompt box and the information displayed in it, Rogers frowned slightly, held the textbook in his left hand, and stroked the magic book with his right hand, and used the ability of [Enlightenment Bonus] to give some of the functions of [Ignorance Bonus].

[The Ignorance Bonus is passively triggered, and the Intuition Bonus fails to determine and is aborted.] 】

"Looks like things are getting a little bit worse, two of us." Alina brushed her fingers through the broken hair on her forehead, but her face was not worried, and her smile was sly.

Rogers didn't look back, nor did he reply to Aliana's words.

His thoughts were taken back to the day the two first met, and Aliana's attitude was very similar to the current one.

Before signing a contract with [Liqi Bonus], the other party's performance was very intimate, and even intimate enough to be willing to reveal to him his control over the bonus.

Then, after a long time together, he could be extremely sure that Alina was not the kind of person who would be willing to deceive others when they first saw them, and even let down their guard and confide in their secrets.

"What did you see before dusk?"

Rogers' tone was incredibly calm, his gaze sharp and aggressive staring straight at Alina.

Dusk is the moment when he sacrifices Kaiwen to the bottomless pit, and it is also the moment when he completes the mission to save the world and obtains the [Ignorance Bonus].

In other words, before this, it is entirely possible for Alina to include him in the precognition, and as long as the bonus is not activated against him, the prompt box will not pop up the corresponding message.

Since that day, he has been constantly combing through the plot, constantly calculating Alice's growth progress, and constantly thinking about what benefits he can get.

Because such cumbersome planning occupies my mind, I subconsciously omitted the "leftover role" that has been following me and is restricted by myself with [Liqi Bonus].

Even if Alina can't predict Rutgers's possible future developments and achievements, as long as Rogus will often be by her side in the future, she can also predict something through Rogers' relationship with her.

Even if these futures are uncertain, and even unlikely to be reproduced, they are still extremely important.

"Again, with the same eyes as they did that day." Alina nodded on her tiptoes, leaned forward, leaned her face in front of Rogers, and whispered in a complicated tone:

"I don't know if you're sharp or slow.

"A fool would never have noticed this, but if you are as smart as you, why would you delay until now......

"We're in the classroom at this point, and it's time for the next class. And, because of the contract, I can't say anything to anyone.

"And in the end, what I see is very little of the day, and there are no secrets in it, and you don't need to be so wary and worried."

Rogers felt his breath staggered with Alina, his eyes slowly drooping to a half-closed appearance, carefully judging the girl's facial expression.

If the [Ignorance Bonus] erases the corresponding memories for more than a moment, he has probably already started to activate it at this time, trying to erase all the futures that Alina foresees related to him.

It was an instinctive fear and apprehension, just like when he first faced Elena, who could judge the truth of his words at will.

What is there, there will be again; What has been done, it will be done again......

Rogers pushed Alina's face away, then pinched his eyes with one hand, and the famous words from Ecclesiastes came to mind.

He doesn't like to believe in such a thing as fate, at most he believes in the concept that "fate is within the cone of light" born by Einstein.

But at this moment, he had an indescribable emotional surge, as if all the past from awakening the memory of his previous life to this moment had not yet faded, and even had not really passed.

"You can trust Alice, why can't you trust me?

"Aren't you making up those contract terms so that you can use me in the future?

"Since there is no trust, how can you use it with confidence?

"Rogers, I said when you asked me to help deal with the Holy Maiden, all of this has a price."

Alina reached for Rogers' collar and pulled it hard in front of her face, her eyes narrowing slightly, and the unknown emotion reflected in her amber eyes.
