Volume 2 The Triple Trial and the Awakened Demon Eye Chapter 148 The Shadow in the Heart

The rain was getting heavier and heavier.

Several people have been huddled in the same corridor since just now, and each of them has given all the remaining magic power to Allen, and now no one has the strength to create another barrier to cover the rain and send them back to their original place. And judging from the current situation, it seems that it is safer to get together.

So they decided to squeeze in here and make do with the night.

In order to avoid catching a cold, they gathered all the torches in the vicinity and put them together to form a small campfire.

The ground was cold, but the few of them were asleep soundly. Losing a large amount of mana in a short period of time can lead to a strong sense of burnout, even if you have a boiling physique.

Only with the exception of Ellen...... He was unexpectedly not sleepy at all.

Although he himself knows that energy may be a big factor in tomorrow's final, and he needs to get enough rest tonight, he just can't sleep right now.

Looking at Alyssa, who was lying asleep beside him, Alan always felt that something was circling in his head, like a shadow floating in front of him......

The past came flooding back to me. Alan remembered Eve Winslow's strange reaction when they were taking their final exams at Beya Basic School of Magic, when it took only a moment for her to return from rage to composure, and the strange behavior before and after was completely two. Now that I think about it, it must have been Mrs. Dalck, who appeared by the window, who was using a similar magic.

And when they met the werewolf Kayla on the way to this school for the first time, he and Riel were helpless, and even Kelly, who rushed to support, was easily suppressed by Kayla, but Kayla suddenly turned around and fled at the critical moment...... Now that I think about it, it should be Alyssa who used this spiritual magic on the side. It would also explain why she would fall asleep from that time until they arrived at their destination...... For so long, Alan had thought she had fainted from the fright......

And on the day of the freshman admission, the reason why she was suddenly so nervous was because she heard that someone was secretly using this terrifying magic.

But......

"She's so tight-lipped, she's really cautious...... Or is there any reason why you can't know?"

At this time, Ivan's words rang in Allen's ears and began to faintly haunt him.

"yes...... She ...... "Sitting on one side of the aisle, her head against the wall, Alan meditating, "This magic ...... Why do you have to hide such things from me?"

It was as if a stone was pressing down on his chest, making him feel very depressed.

Alan has always been 100% trusting of Alyssa, believing that no matter when or what happens, Alyssa is the one who will stand firmly by his side. Of course, Alyssa is also proving Alan's intuition with practical actions.

But just now, after Alan learned that Alyssa had repeatedly kept silent about him, the situation suddenly became a little different.

"It's because ...... Haven't I been fully trusted yet......" Alan couldn't help but think. I couldn't help but feel a little lost in my heart.

"With such a convenient ability, it should be easy to achieve your goals...... It should be easy to like...... "Alan felt a little melancholy, "then...... How I feel about her...... Is it all true...... Or ......"

Thinking of this, Alan quickly shook his head, unwilling to think about it anymore...... If he continues, he will begin to doubt what he has done......

It's a really bad feeling, like you've been taken advantage of......

But he couldn't stop his brain from thinking right away, so his mind suddenly became a mess, like a pot of porridge......

In this way, I don't know how long it was, he finally fell asleep groggily......

When he woke up the next day, it was almost noon.

"You can really sleep. Riel saw that he was awake and handed him a glass of water. This was brought by Cynthia.

"It hurts......" Maybe sitting in one position on such a hard ground for too long, Alan felt a little sore, and a little dizzy.

"What's wrong?" asked Riel, "what's wrong?"

"Uh...... Well...... It's okay......" Alan took a deep breath and shook his head again, "I just had a nightmare......"

"Nightmare, what did you dream about?"

"Nothing...... Alan hesitated a little and shook his head, "uh...... I don't remember exactly......"

"Oh......" said Riel, "since it's a nightmare, it's better to forget about it...... Today is such an important day, you have to cheer up!"

"Hmm......" Alan nodded, "I will." ”

But that being said, the dream still impressed Allen...... Because it's about Alyssa's dream.

In the dream, they returned to the same classroom where they first met, and he and Alyssa were still sitting back and forth, but the difference was that this time Alyssa was in front of him, always with her back to him.

Alan felt that there were many things he wanted to ask, but at the same time he was stuck in his throat and couldn't say anything, and he struggled to the end, and all the words turned into slightly strange shouts.

But no matter how much he shouted, Alyssa never turned back......

Finally, he was tired of shouting and began to fall silent, but Alyssa suddenly opened her mouth at this time......

"I'm sorry. Alyssa didn't look back.

Somehow, Alan only felt like a pinprick in his heart when he heard this word, although Alyssa didn't tell him what she was apologizing for, but there was always an indescribable feeling lingering in his heart...... Maybe it was his instinct that was at work, and he just felt very lost.

"Do all my speculations ...... Is it all true......" The thought lingered in his mind until he woke up......

It's a terrible feeling.

"She's probably going to sleep until night. Seeing Ellen staring at Alyssa, Cynthia said.

"Ah...... Uh-huh, uh-huh......" Alan was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses.

"Didn't you sleep well last night?" Cynthia said as she threw him an apple, "huh...... But this is also something that cannot be helped, after all, it is better to sleep comfortably in bed. ”

"Thank you. Allen said.

"Let's just take a moment, I didn't expect so many people to form a team at the same time, and the food would have been eaten long ago. Cynthia said, "There are only three apples left, give you one...... Don't let it down. ”

In other words, the four of them went to divide the remaining two......

After hearing this, Alan couldn't help but be moved again.

"Thank you...... I'll do my best. Allen said.

"But fortunately she didn't wake up, otherwise how would this apple be divided." Cynthia turned her head to look at Alyssa and quipped.

With that, she sat down again.

Maybe Cynthia's words were working, and Alan finally felt less uncomfortable in his heart.

"Rare is right, let's forget about it......" Alan closed his eyes, let out a long sigh of relief, and beat his spirits, "or focus on ...... At this time of life and death......"
