The rain started to fall a little heavily.

Although Alan retracted his feet in time and grabbed Ryel's clothes again, he didn't fall, but in order to maintain his balance in the panic, he let go of his other hand and the umbrella fell.

Riel was right next to him, but Mrs. Dalke was watching them closely, so he didn't dare to act rashly, so he had to watch Alan drenched in the rain.

However, to Allen's slight luck, the camouflage barrier on the umbrella was applied separately, and even if he left his hand, it would not be exposed, which finally prevented Mrs. Dalk from directly discovering them.

Although it is now late July, the weather of Beiya is not high all year round, and it is only less than 20 degrees when it rains, so the rain dripping into Allen's neck looks quite cold, coupled with the rain that is now heavy, he will be drenched all over in a while.

He was wearing only a thin coat, which was now clammy and cold, making him feel unspeakably uncomfortable. But when he looked at Mrs. Dalke again through the rain curtain, he found that her gaze seemed to have completely shifted to Riel.

"What's going on?" Alan was stunned. When Mrs. Dalk first went out, her eyes wandered back and forth between him and Riel, but now that they were so close to each other, Mrs. Dalke's eyes were only locked on Riel.

"Could it be that there is something on Riel that will reveal his location?" Alan wiped the rain from his face and quickly looked at Riel, but no matter how he looked at it, the camouflage covering the surface of Riel's body was flawless, and there was even the afterimage left by the raindrops falling, if it wasn't for him dragging Riel's clothes with his hands, even he wouldn't have seen that there was a big living person here.

Seeing that Mrs. Dalk was about to walk in front of Riel, her steps were getting slower and more careful. Riel was also nervous and tugged at Alan's clothes.

It was then that a detail caught Allen's attention - Mrs. Dalke walked on her side, not so much looking for a target with her eyes as she was listening. Take a closer look at her ears...... Seems to be moving!?

"Did she find out something unusual here by her voice!?" Alan was shocked, remembering that when they were still studying at Beya, Mrs. Dalke could often inexplicably find out that Riel was deserting in class, and her heart instantly had a point.

"But how did she hear something unusual when it was raining so hard?" Alan thought to himself, "and she could only hear Riel's location...... Is he different from me?"

At this point, Mrs. Dalk was only a few steps away from Rare.

"What's the problem......" Since he couldn't see Riel either, Alan had to close his eyes and try to imagine Riel's current state, and then compare it to himself," the voice ...... Different...... Anomalous ......"

Mrs. Dalk stopped only two paces away from Rare and slowly raised her wand, muttering something to her mouth. She could tell that she was pretty sure that the strange voice was coming from here.

At this critical moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in Allen's mind: "Could it be...... This umbrella!"

Alan listened carefully and found that he had guessed correctly, the slightly dull and unique sound of this raindrop hitting the umbrella, "bang, bang", although it was not too big, but as long as you listened carefully, it was quite obvious! Since it rained all day long, they had long been accustomed to this kind of sound, but to the ears of an old lady who had lived under the sun of Krivari for decades, it was indeed abnormal! This also explains the change in Mrs. Dark's reaction just now, and this is the only thing that makes Riel different from him!

"Why didn't I think of it sooner!" Thinking of this, he quickly touched Rare's arm all the way to find the position of his hand, and snatched the umbrella from his hand and closed it.

Riel was stunned, wondering why Alan had suddenly snatched his umbrella and closed it, but he didn't dare say anything because he was so close to Mrs. Dark.

I saw that Mrs. Dalk was chanting a spell, and when Alan closed the umbrella, she was instantly stunned.

"It seems that it's really because of this umbrella ......," Alan breathed a sigh of relief.

But before his heart could be fully relaxed, he heard Mrs. Dalk recite the remaining incantations: "Sharp as the fangs of a beast, and swift as a bird." The order from the Wind God is here my sword!"

"This is ......" Alan was shocked, he recognized this spell, he had seen it when he was in the wind elemental class with Alyssa, "Wind Blade!"

"How could it be such an offensive magic!" Alan almost screamed in fright, remembering that Professor Fran had cut a piece of wood in two in front of them, and quickly tugged on Riel's arm.

At the same time, Mrs. Dark's wand was swung out, and a vague crescent-shaped air flow flew diagonally towards Rare's location!

Although Riel was usually slow to react, he could also see the dangerous aura emanating from Mrs. Dark's body, and with Allen's very hard pull, he reflexively turned sideways!

The wind blade didn't hit Riel and continued to fly forward, eventually landing in the rice paddies. When the two looked back, they found that several rice plants had been cut in two.

Riel couldn't help but swallow, thanks to Eren dragging him, he barely managed to escape, otherwise I don't know what he would have become now......

Mrs. Dalk listened attentively again, and then took two tentative steps, and went back and forth along the edge of the ditch, before shaking her head and walking away.

"What is this old woman crazy about......" When they confirmed that Mrs. Dalk had indeed walked away, Riel immediately said, looking palpitating, "If this hurtful magic really hits me, won't I die......"

"It's not ...... yet" Alan lifted the disguise on the two of them, and opened the umbrella again, the two of them were already soaked in the rain for so long, "but it's quite possible to make a few openings in you......"

"Why did she do it all of a sudden!" Riel whispered, "and only hit me, is it because I didn't heed her warning......"

"No, she didn't know that the source of this anomalous sound was you. Alan pointed to the umbrella and said, "She just heard that there was someone here, because of the umbrella." ”

"Umbrella?" Riel wondered.

"Yes, you listen carefully. "We're used to it, but not for her. ”

"Can she hear the rain so hard?!" Riel asked, "She's got so good ears, isn't it?

Alan shook his head: "I don't know why, but it must be so." ”

Riel seemed to remember the previous class and stopped talking.

"But what I want to know more is ......," Alan brooded, her brow furrowed, "and her vigilance is too high...... It's unusually high...... She seems to be wary of someone......"

"Is there anyone here to be afraid of?" asked Riel, confused, "The security in this town is too good to be any better, right? At least I've never heard my dad say anything big about it since I've grown up." ”

"Who knows...... Thinking to no avail, Alan had to sigh softly, "Let's send the gift to Alyssa now, and try to get her back before she returns." ”

"Good. ”

Alan didn't know where his umbrella had flown to, so they had to go to Alyssa's door with the same umbrella and knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Alyssa's voice came from within, apparently unfamiliar to her with this way of knocking on the door.

"Well, it's ...... the two of us," Allen said.

"Alan?" Alyssa seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then a series of hurried footsteps sounded, and the door was opened.

"Why are you two ......" Before Alyssa's words could be spoken, she saw these two people standing in front of her soaking wet, and she was instantly stunned, and immediately changed her words: "What's the matter, why do you two look like this?"

"Well, that's a long story......" Alan and Riel looked at each other helplessly, then said, "We're here to give you a birthday present." ”

"Ah......h

"Well, it's a dictation pen. Riel was the first to pull out the quill that Mr. Connor had given him from his pocket, "Uh, it looks like it's wet...... But that's okay! it should still work properly after drying!"

Alyssa lowered her head and didn't speak.

"Uh...... In the future, you only need to move your mouth to write what you want to write, and it will help you write it accurately!" Seeing Alyssa's reaction, Riel was slightly embarrassed and a little incoherent: "This is a gift from my father, do you still like it...... Uh, I mean, it's just a decoration left with me, it's a waste, so I might as well give it to you......"

"Thank you. Alyssa raised her head slightly, took the quill in Riel's hand, and said in a small voice, "This is my first birthday......

When Alan heard her words, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and what seemed to them to be such an ordinary thing would make her so excited.

"Happy birthday. Alan said as he took the bracelet out of his pocket, "I made it myself." ”

Alyssa raised her head when she heard this, took the bracelet, and held it in her palm in a daze.

"It's blue quartz. Alan said, "Well, you always seem to be sleeping badly, I hope this helps." ”

Alyssa began to have tears in her eyes when she heard this, and she stared down at the bracelet for a long time before she said slowly: "It's beautiful......"

"If you like it, if you like. Alan laughed.

"It's really beautiful. I saw Alyssa put the bracelet on her wrist little by little, and deliberately rolled up her sleeves to expose her forearms, "And I think that as long as I have it, I will sleep peacefully every day in the future......"
