Volume 1 The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 81 Cold Fingers
"Uh......" Alan was a little embarrassed, not knowing what Cynthia was trying to do.
However, Alyssa was thrilled to hear her say this, and stood up suddenly, startling both Riel and Alan.
Cynthia also noticed, glanced at Alyssa, smiled lightly and looked at Allen: "But Freya is still waiting in the room for me to bring her breakfast, so I'll take my leave first." ”
"If she is not feeling well and doesn't want to move, wouldn't it be good to ask the gnomes to bring her to the room for breakfast, why do you have to wait for you to bring it to her?" Alan was a little strange.
"It's not uncomfortable, it's just that she's weak since she was a child, and she hates dwarfs touching her things, let alone eating...... You know, those little things look ugly and dirty, and the girls don't like them very much. Cynthia said and ordered another breakfast and stood up: "Then I won't be with you, I wish you all the best this morning." We'll see you in the afternoon. With that, she nodded politely to the two of them, and walked away the way she came.
But Alyssa didn't sit down for a long time, just lowered her head and didn't speak.
Alan and Riel don't know what's going on with her today, they just feel like she's angry, but they don't know why she's angry. But she didn't move, and they didn't dare to speak, so they sat here, looking at each other, and looking at her from time to time.
After Cynthia had left, Alyssa suddenly picked up the book and said, "Let's go, I'm going to be late!" and left the restaurant quickly.
Rare had no idea why Alyssa was in such an abnormal mood today, and as soon as she walked on her front foot, she whispered to Alan, "Hey, what's going on? She doesn't seem to like Cynthia very much?"
"Uh...... They had an unpleasant ...... before," and since Riel asked, Alan told Riel about the quarrel that day as he walked.
"It doesn't seem like a big deal...... "Rare scratched his head, "but didn't you explain it to her too?"
"yes, I think I explained it clearly enough......" Alan sighed, "but it doesn't seem to work...... They still don't seem to like each other. ”
"Tsk, the girls' minds are really hard to understand. Riel pouted and shook his head, his tone somewhat like Mr. Connor's.
"Sympathy!" Alan nodded at his sudden adult look.
The two of them chatted as they walked out the restaurant, and Alyssa was already waiting at the exit of the path.
The two of them walked over quickly.
"You two are so slow. Alyssa looked a little anxious, "There is less than an hour before class." ”
"Uh...... I thought, I'll have to go back to my room first......" Alan said.
"What's wrong?"
"I ...... I was going to go to the library after dinner, so I didn't bring my textbooks......"
"It's okay, let's read a copy. Alyssa said decisively, "Since you were able to get forty points yesterday, you should have mastered it quite well." ”
"Uh...... Alright then......" Alan reluctantly agreed.
He looked at Alyssa's back carefully, and always felt that Alyssa was not at all like a person when she spoke today, and her tone was a lot less weak and more resolute.
While he was stunned, Alyssa had already walked towards the general hall, and he and Riel hurriedly followed.
It's almost time for class, and the students are starting to come from all walks of life.
Alyssa seemed a little absent-minded, and walked quickly with her head down. Just as she reached the door of the general hall, she bumped into a person who came out of the door. The man was very tall, and after she hit it, she almost fell down, and the book fell to the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't pay attention. Alyssa apologized as she bent down to pick up her textbook.
But the man didn't say anything, and he didn't move.
Generally speaking, no matter who is suddenly hit, whether they are angry or not, they will have a reaction, right?
Alyssa was a little puzzled, and when she looked up, she realized that she had bumped into Professor Menisha Frost, who was in charge of the women's side.
It was a middle-aged woman who looked to be over forty years old, wearing the same black robes as Professor Stubourne. She was tall enough to come out of the arch with her head down, her cheeks thin and pale, barely bloody, as if she had been bedridden for a long time, her eyes were so large that they looked as if she were staring, and she wore her whole hair in a high bun at the top of her head, which made her whole face look longer.
"Yes, I'm sorry. Alyssa saw that she didn't speak, and apologized again.
But Professor Frost just looked at her, his eyes wide, and he didn't know if he was angry.
Alyssa lowered her head and didn't dare to speak, and Alan and Riel also saw this scene and stood from afar to observe.
After a moment of stalemate, Professor Frost suddenly reached out without warning and touched Alyssa's cheek.
Alyssa was startled, not knowing what she was doing, and leaned back slightly, shuddering as she watched her long, skinny fingers slide across her face.
It was a pair of hands that were so cold that the moment they touched Alyssa's cheek reminded her of the dungeon in the northeast corner of the school, but the walls of the dungeon were even hotter.
But now it wasn't just Alan and Riel, almost all the students who were trying to enter the door were stunned. Professor Frost's movements looked really weird, not at all like the behavior of a teacher and a student.
But fortunately, she moved quickly, just touched it and took her hand away, and walked away quickly.
"What did she do to you?" asked Professor Frost as she walked over quickly.
"I don't know......" Alyssa moved to the side of the door with the book in her arms so as not to get in and out of the way, "I accidentally bumped into her when I entered the door, I thought she would get angry or deduct points or something...... But she didn't say anything, and touched my face. Alyssa also looked confused.
"I remember she's teaching water elemental magic, right?" Alan asked again.
"That's right, she's the professor of the water elemental magic class that I'm going to minor. ”
"That's interesting......" Alan looked in the direction Professor Frost had left, "It's the day of class for the Anemo Elemental students, how could she be here?"
"She's the professor in charge on the girls' side. Riel shrugged and said, "Maybe it's just a class visit, but she seems to be a pretty responsible person." ”
"Hmm. Alyssa replied gently, "Whatever happens on the girl's side, the gnome will report to her first. ”
"That's right......" Alan said with a frown, biting his lip.
"Let's stop talking about that, let's go to the classroom first...... Grandma always said that no matter what you do, the sooner the better. Alyssa didn't seem to want to stand in such a prominent place as the doorway to discuss something, so she interrupted Allen's train of thought.
"Well, good. ”
The three of them walked into the general hall together, and Alan led them to the place where they had been in class yesterday, and waited quietly for Professor Stubone to arrive. Alan took advantage of this moment to talk to them about the details that needed to be paid attention to during the class yesterday.
They didn't wait long, though, and with the familiar "uh-huh", Professor Stubone appeared at the door, as he had done yesterday, and walked to the middle of the hall with the other two professors, pulling up a few barriers. Then, when the clock struck nine o'clock, he stepped up to his special podium.
"Ahem...... Now that the roll call begins, please raise your hand as you read the name......" The opening remarks are still the same as yesterday, and Professor Tubourne's voice is still as passionate as yesterday. But before he could pronounce the name of the first student, he caught a glimpse of Alan standing in the front row.
"Why are you here again?" Professor Stubourne was slightly surprised, and stepped off the podium to Alan's side.
"Uh...... You said I could take all the classes for the first two weeks......"
"Yes, yes, I said that. Professor Stubone walked up to Allen, bent down and whispered, "I mean, you don't get extra points for answering the same questions repeatedly...... And you did very well yesterday, especially Miss Winslow, the cooperation between the two of you is seamless, as long as you practice diligently, there is no need to come back today. ”
Alyssa seemed a little unhappy when she heard this, and lowered her head again.
"Uh...... Thank you for the compliment, your lectures are great and detailed, I just worry that I haven't fully mastered it. Alan glanced at Alyssa and wanted to say that he had been hard-pulled.
"Well, you're right, there's no more teacher in this school who speaks more in more detail and more earnestly than I do!" Professor Stubone looked a little fluttering as he heard this. But the next second, he seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked, "By the way, what's your name?"
"Well, Alan Patterner...... "Alan can't remember the first time he told Professor Stubone his name, but he couldn't remember it, much to Allen's embarrassment.
"Oh, yes, yes, Patna, Patna-san. Professor Stubone clapped his hands and whispered as he leaned his mouth close to his ear, "So, Paterna-san...... What is your relationship with Miss Winslow?"
"Uh......" Alan suddenly didn't know how to answer this question when he heard it, and he was stunned.
They had been muttering so quietly for a while, and the whole classroom was whispering about what they were talking about.
"It doesn't matter...... We didn't know each other very well...... "After a while, Alan touched his nose and said unnaturally, "Uh...... It's just a good friend. After saying that, he glanced at Alyssa.
"Oh, that's right...... Very good friend...... Hmm......" Professor Stubone nodded thoughtfully, "yes, very good...... I made a note of it, Alan Paterner. After saying that, he walked back to the podium and said in a loud voice, "Ahem...... Quiet, quiet!Next, let's start the lesson!"
