Volume 2 The Triple Trial and the Awakened MONOCULUS Chapter 63 A Greeting from Cecilis
Professor Wagbein's words seemed to pierce Frey's mind. I saw Frey suddenly stand up from the stone, stand with his head bowed and his hands clenched, and stand for a long time.
"Let's go. Professor Wagbine broke the silence and said, "If you don't go back, you're afraid you won't have a place to sleep tonight." ”
"Hmm......" Alan agreed, bowing his head and walking into the dark passage.
After such a long rest, Frey no longer needed someone to help him, after all, he was not injured in the first place, but only the exhaustion caused by the depletion of his magic power.
"Thanks to your ...... this time," Alan said to Professor Wagbine on the way back, "if you hadn't followed, we might have lost our lives......
"No...... You may have made it the other way around, Fray and I have to thank you in advance......" Professor Wagbein was slightly stunned when he heard Alan's words, and smiled, "After all, this is our family affair, but I didn't expect you to get involved." ”
"Uh......" Alan was speechless for a moment, hesitant to tell Professor Wagbean the whole story. As it stands, he is indeed a trustworthy person, but if you want to start from the beginning...... He really didn't know where to start......
"And I'm really shocked by how you guys behaved......" Professor Wagbein said, looking at Cynthia and Alyssa, "especially these two little girls, who are so talented...... Their judgment of the battle situation is very accurate, their ability to grasp the fighter is also excellent, and the impromptu reaction is so fast, it is hard to believe that these are two students who have not yet graduated and have no actual combat experience at all......"
"Thank you for the compliment. Cynthia and Alyssa nodded in response.
"Have you been watching from the sidelines from the beginning?" asked Allen.
"Yes...... Professor Wagbine nodded, "I've been very careful since the last time I noticed someone else searching here, so today as soon as you made a move, I set out on a different path, from the one I paved myself......"
"That magic was awesome, it was perfectly out of Mr. Winslow's sight. Thinking of the scene at that time, Alan couldn't help but say, "At that time, no one expected that someone would come down from mid-air and save us...... It was like seeing a savior......"
"No, ......no," Professor Wagbein said with a smile, "compared to the 'Thousand Hole Bridge' built by our ancestors......
"Even you've been observant for too long. Frey smiled and said, "I was already ready to die......
"I can't help it...... You know, even I won't pose any threat to the Wand of Stealer until he leaves......" Professor Wagbine said with a wry smile, "Although the magic in the Wand of Stealing is limited, he is a man who is proficient in all existing magic, and if I do it blindly, I may be locked up in that enchantment like you...... That's really bad. There were many times when I almost wanted to make a move, but I gave up thinking about it...... It's like a game of hunting each other, and whoever shows a flaw first becomes the prey. Luckily, I endured to the end, so I can stand here with you now. ”
Alan nodded, also secretly rejoicing.
"But, to be honest, I haven't seen such a good fight in a long time...... Professor Wagbine said with a smile, "I really didn't expect you to push him to this point...... There have been times when I have felt like you were going to be cornered, but in the end, you were able to save the day...... If this was something that happened in a certain game and the opponent wasn't him, I think I'd choose to see the bottom from the sidelines, haha...... I'm really reluctant to disturb the fight between you......"
Hearing Professor Wagbein's words, Alan couldn't help but look at Professor Wagbean again, but he didn't expect that some maverick men who usually look taciturn still have such a side.
After a moment of silence, they returned to the dungeon.
Doug has been looking very excited lately, and the fact that so many people often come to his "house" makes him happy like a child. It's just that in order to prevent him from making trouble or causing any trouble, the first thing Frey does when he comes here is to put a hypnotic spell on him. Now he's still sleeping.
"This wand......" Alan looked at the wand in his hand as he left, and was a little hesitant to return it to Doug.
"You can keep it. "He is no longer capable of wielding this wand, and you are probably the only one who can move freely with this wand now......"
Alan looked at Professor Wagbein.
"To be honest, I'm curious about the magic in you......" Professor Wagbein stared at him, "I've heard of the existence of light elemental magic, but I've never seen anyone use this kind of magic in all my years of traveling...... The magic turned out to be a ray of light after it was concretized......"
"What have you heard?" Alan quickly asked.
"Very little. Professor Wagbein replied, "I just know that this kind of magic is rare, and there is no systematic record of it, and there are some scattered rumors about it...... What is certain, however, is that it tends to work on the mind more than any other kind of magic that can act on the human body...... What we saw tonight confirms this. ”
"Hmm......" Hearing this answer, Alan couldn't help but sigh softly. It wasn't the answer he wanted to hear.
But on second thought, he still had something to gain tonight, at least the Rod of Stealing allowed him to use some other magic that he could never have dreamed of. It gave him a lot of confidence to deal with the Triple Trials later.
Of course, the magic is limited......
"Ah...... By the way......" Professor Wagbine glanced at them again and said, "Don't talk about tonight to anyone...... The guild may be about to change. ”
"Well, we know. A few people nodded.
Several people returned to the ground, and the campus was silent. It was close to nine o'clock, and no one was out to walk around anymore.
It seems that what happened in the valley did not alarm the people on the ground.
They hurriedly said goodbye and went back to their rooms.
Riel hadn't slept yet, and he was still in high spirits after this time.
"You're back!" said Alan as soon as he pushed the door in, "Why are you going, I've been waiting for you for an hour!"
"What's the matter?" asked Alan.
"Of course!" Riel jumped out of bed, his face excited, "What time do you think it's today?"
"Hmm...... Number Twelve......" Alan said with some confusion. But in the next second, he understood what Riel was excited about.
"Yes, it's the middle of the moon the day after tomorrow, and we're leaving for Crivari tomorrow night!" Rare almost jumped to his feet, "Cecilis has promised me to take her around the city when the time comes." ”
"That's pretty good. Alan smiled and said, "Looks like you're going pretty well." ”
"Uh-huh, I think so too!" Riel nodded vigorously, but the next second he seemed to remember something, and he stopped talking: "Uh...... But ......"
"What?"
"Uh...... She seems to ...... I want you to join us......" Riel said with some confusion.
"Me?" Alan was stunned, he didn't expect it to be related to him.
"Hmm...... I thought I misheard......" Riel shrugged and thought about it again, "but she did say...... 'Will Senior Paterner be with us?'"
