Hearing this, Alan finally nodded and stopped asking.

"But I'd like to know, when did you start thinking about these things?" said Mr. Connor, smiling again, "Honestly, Alan, what you just said really scared me...... You're so much more mature than I thought you would. ”

"Well, I don't remember either......" Alan said after a moment's thought, "it was a long time ago, anyway. ”

"Hmm......" Mr. Connor pondered for a moment, then asked, "Was it about a year ago?"

"Why do you ask?" Alan was a little puzzled, but as soon as he said this, he suddenly understood something: "Ah...... ...... that night"

Just one night a year ago, he saw a figure appear in his home.

"It's me. Mr. Connor smiled and said, "I'll wait for Tim's letter, that's the time we agreed to communicate." But I didn't expect that when I looked up, the lights in your room were still on, so I went to take a look in order to prevent any of you from following me. ”

"Well, I happened to have a dream that night...... I dreamed that my dad was back. ”

"Then you really have a heart, worthy of father and son. Mr. Connor smiled again, "He did write that night that he might be coming back, but then something changed and he dragged it off until now." ”

"Variable...... Is it dangerous?" Upon hearing this word, Alan couldn't help but blurt out.

"Don't worry, it's okay now. Perhaps to comfort Alan, Mr. Connor touched his head and said, "Don't underestimate your father, he's much better than me." ”

After a brief silence, Mr. Connor said, "Let's go, it's almost time for dinner." I had something else to tell you. ”

The three of them came out of Alan's house and returned to their familiar living room. It wasn't long before Mrs. Connor returned.

Almost an hour later, the four of them sat down at the table again.

"You're leaving on August 27th, aren't you?" asked Mr. Connor as he ate.

"Yes, the second year is a day earlier than before. Allen said.

"Well......," said Mr. Connor, with a slight hesitation, "actually, I should have come with you this time. ”

"Why?" Alan asked curiously.

"You may not know...... Recently, several towns in the north have not been very peaceful. Mr. Connor said.

"Isn't it peaceful?" said Allen.

"I heard that there are signs of large-scale werewolf activity, which have injured many people, and there have been fatalities in several towns. Mr. Connor looked a little worried, "It's strange how many years have it been...... The last time I heard of a werewolf infestation hurting someone was more than ten years ago. ”

It was only after Mr. Connor said this that Alan remembered that it seemed a bit like that time fourteen years ago.

"But the incident was quickly put to rest, and this time there was no sign of improvement. "So recently we were notified by the Crivary Security Department to be on increased alert and to have people on patrol day and night...... Beya's security department has always been short of manpower, so ......"

"Don't worry, Dad, we'll take care of ourselves. "We're not the same as we were a year ago, and if we find something wrong, we have our own way to deal with it." ”

"Oh, that's reliable...... Mr. Connor chuckled lightly, but quickly returned to his worried look.

"Don't worry too much, Uncle Dean. Seeing Mr. Connor's expression, Alan also said, "After all, it is a densely populated area from here to Krivari, and werewolves should not rush to such a place. And if you really meet a werewolf, with the speed of a unicorn running, it is still easy to go to the nearest town for help. ”

That being said, Alan actually knew it, but he just didn't want to worry the Connors. Remembering the scene when he almost died at Kayla's hands last year, he still couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. However, what Riel said just now is indeed right, now they are different from the children who did not have the slightest power to fight back, at least Alyssa's wind elemental magic can help them a lot.

But thinking about this, Alan remembered something that made him care a lot.

They had previously learned from Kelly that it was a young man with a hood and Kayla who had attacked their tribe, and later learned from Professor Fran that Arne Burrestu had fled northwest after committing the crime, intercepting a convoy of Dalke and the Storey brothers escorting werewolves on the way, and releasing and rescuing an extremely dangerous werewolf. By all indications, the werewolf that Burestu let go of that night was Kayla, and the two groups then acted together. But what puzzled Eren was who the "familiar smell" in her mouth was when they met Kayla on their way to Krivari a year ago.

At first, Alan guessed that it might be Alyssa, as she was wearing her mother's clothes. But then I thought about it and Alan felt that it was wrong, because more than ten years have passed, and even if the werewolf's nose is sensitive, it is impossible to smell the smell that is almost completely non-existent, right? But Alan couldn't find any other plausible explanation.

"Could it be that I got it wrong all along?" Alan couldn't help but shake his head at the thought of this.

After dinner, several people went back to their rooms to rest.

In the days that followed, Alan barely went out again, spending the whole day reading books in the house and preparing for the second-year lessons they were about to face.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for them to set off again.

Since the Connor couple have been busy lately, there is no one to see them off this time, which makes Riel a little disappointed. Thankfully, Mrs. Connor had made up for some of Rare's regrets by making a sumptuous meal the night before.

"Oh...... It's really annoying, and I have to eat compressed biscuits all the way, just thinking about it is enough. When the two of them went out with umbrellas, Riel complained.

"There's no way, just bear with it for the time being, although we are no longer freshmen, but in order to catch the wind and wash the dust for us, I heard that there is also a dinner party. Allen said.

As soon as Riel heard this, he finally stopped complaining.

They left a little early today, more than an hour before the last time the bird chimes. Originally, the two of them discussed walking slowly, anyway, there was still a lot of time, and then they had a good look at this town. However, when they reached the path of Alyssa's house, they found that Alyssa was already there, as if they were still waiting for them.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to come out so early today. Riel trotted all the way over to say hello, then looked cautiously down the road and whispered, "Where's your grandmother?"

"Don't worry, she didn't come along, I let her rest at home. Alyssa pursed her lips and smiled, and whispered, "Actually, I'm afraid you'll leave too soon......"

"Is there anything we can help with?" asked Allen.

"No...... I don't need help......" Alyssa was a little hesitant, bowed her head and whispered, "I just want to...... Well...... I want you to come with me to the school for another visit...... As you know, all my impressions of this town are home and school......"

"Ah......" Alan realized that she was a little reluctant to leave a deep memory on her.

"No problem!" Rare looked excited, "Actually, I've wanted to ...... with you for a long time Uh, no, I want to go to the school! If it weren't for the rush last year......"

"Let's go, it's still early to go. Alan also said.

The road is sparsely populated. The three of them followed this familiar path together and came to the gate of Beya's Basic Magic School again.

"Really, can't this gate be renovated properly? With such a strange shape, why didn't you think it was ugly before?"

Riel's words made the other two laugh.

Through the window they saw that the light was still on in the cabin next to the gate, and old Storey seemed to be drunk and was lying in bed.

The three of them slipped in quietly.

Due to the holidays, the campus was silent, all the classrooms were locked, and they could only barely take advantage of the dim sky to get a glimpse of the scenery inside.

"Hey, I don't know what this year's exam question is!" said Riel as he passed by their exam room.

"I don't know, but I bet we had the hardest question ever. Allen said.

"Sympathy! That hateful ugly woman...... "Riel seemed to think of Eve Winslow, his face full of disgust.

After a good visit, the three of them walked out of the school gate with a smile and a smile.

"I don't know if we'll be able to meet after school starts

"Is there anything we can help with?" asked Allen.

"No...... I don't need help......" Alyssa was a little hesitant, bowed her head and whispered, "I just want to...... Well...... I want you to come with me to the school for another visit...... As you know, all my impressions of this town are home and school......"

"Ah......" Alan realized that she was a little reluctant to leave a deep memory on her.
