Volume 1: The Scourge of Witchcraft and the Enemies of a Thousand Years Ago Chapter 45 Ian Laven

The four of them passed through the second and third floors all the way, and found that the corridor was brightly lit and luxuriously decorated, and there was a red carpet with gold trim on the ground all the way. They saw that almost all of them were not in their own rooms, but were greeting each other in the corridors, but the little gnomes were going in and out of the rooms with their heads bowed.

Little Stewart was also chatting happily with the Winslow kid in the opposite room, when he caught a glimpse of Alan and the others walking up, and shouted, "Hey, those who live on the fourth floor, do you want me to pay for you so that the dwarfs can help you tidy up your room?"

There was an exaggerated laugh in the hallway.

"No!" Alan replied briefly, then pulled Riel on his way without looking back. Riel didn't have time to say anything, so he glared at him fiercely.

"He's so annoying!" Rare looked like he was about to explode, "I thought that was the only Eve Winslow with this kind of virtue, but I didn't expect there to be so many of them!"

"Be quiet, it's better to ignore them, otherwise you won't want to live peacefully for the past three years. Alan advised.

"Three years! I feel like I can't stay here for a moment!" Riel scratched his head.

"But we must be patient now. Alan frowned slightly, and said seriously: "If you don't want to continue to be ridiculed in the future, then we must be patient now." ”

Hearing this, Riel finally calmed down, pursed his lips, swallowed his saliva, and stopped talking.

There was no carpet from the third floor and above, and the lights in the hallway were much darker.

The corridor on the fourth floor is very quiet, probably everyone is tidying up their own things in the room.

As Sipheus had said, they walked all the way down the western corridor to the end, and found a small note taped to the lintel of room forty with the names of the four of them written on it.

The door panels look old, completely different from those on the first, second and third floors.

"This is it. Alan stopped, took out the key and opened the lock.

Lots of space in the room. Directly opposite them was a passage enclosed by two thin walls, leading to the balcony, two beds on each side of the passage, each against the wall, and a small table at the head of the bed, a small cubicle on the left and right sides of the door, which they found to be two bathrooms when they pushed open the door, and a few steps further in they saw two wardrobes side by side on the outer wall of the compartment facing their bed.

Riel was pleased with the layout of the room, because although the room was for the four of them, the two thin walls actually divided the room in two, but the range of motion was smaller, not much different from when he was at home, and he could still have privacy with Alan.

Alan and the Laven brothers give in to each other, and in the end, it is he and Riel who choose the bed first. Rare, who both prefer the left-hand side, took their luggage out of their pockets and put it back in shape, and began to organize their clothes. Fortunately, there was no dust in the house, which saved them a lot of trouble.

The four of them briefly introduced themselves to each other while tidying up, but the two brothers didn't seem to be good at words, and it took them a long time to understand. The fatter one is the younger brother Ivan, and the thinner one is the older brother Ian.

When the two of them had packed up their clothes and laid out their bedding, a crisp bell rang outside the window, and it was ten o'clock. It's the last sound of each night. Remembering that there would be a magic test tomorrow morning, the two of them hurriedly went to wash up and got into the bed.

But although he lay down for a long time, Alan did not fall asleep, and as soon as he lay down in bed, he began to miss everything at home. Miss the Connors, miss his desk, miss Anna, and even the old and confused chiming bird. This completely unfamiliar environment and so many strange people, everything unfamiliar made him extremely uncomfortable.

After about an hour, Alan was tired and turned sideways, only to find that Riel didn't seem to be asleep either, because if he did, he would usually snore softly.

"I guess he's homesick too. Alan thought.

However, Alan did not squeak, because he knew that if he spoke now, they would probably have to talk until dawn, and they would definitely delay their trip tomorrow. So Alan closed his eyes and tried to keep his brain blank and not think about anything. It took another unknown amount of time before he finally fell asleep.

The next morning, he was woken up by the sound of a bell, which was supposed to be seven o'clock. Riel probably fell asleep later, as the bell didn't even wake him up, but he just rolled over and fell asleep again against the wall facing him.

"Good morning, Alan. The Ravan brothers seemed to have already gotten up, and Ivan had just come out of the bathroom to greet Alan.

"Good morning, Ivan, you woke up so early. ”

"My brother got up earlier than me. We were used to waking up early, and because our parents had limited magic at their disposal, we often had to get up before dawn to help with the farm work. "I know each other better, and Ivan communicates with him more fluently.

"Where are you from?" asked Allen.

"Tumon. Uh, a small mountain village. Ivan's voice became a little smaller.

"Oh, I know that place. We are from Beya. ”

"Sorry, I don't know about Beya. We've never been outside the Tumun Mountains, only a few nearby villages...... Are we close?"

"I don't know, we just passed by Tumon when we came here. It's probably not far. ”

That's when Ian pushed the door and came in, "Good morning, Alan." He also had a small plate in his hand with sandwiches, omelettes and milk.

"Where's Riel? You must be hungry, please eat. Ian smiled and beckoned Ivan to come over for breakfast.

"He hasn't woken up yet, let's eat first. Alan knew that he wanted to express his gratitude for yesterday's events, and his heart was moved, so he stopped refusing it. But when he began to eat, he realized that there were only three servings of breakfast on his plate, and he asked, "Why are there only three?"

"Ah...... That, I ate downstairs. Ian said hesitantly. He put the plate on the small table, then turned his head and pushed the door out: "I still have something to go out for, you can use it slowly." ”

Alan looked at Ian's back as he went out and the patches on the corners of his clothes, as if he understood, and asked Ivan, "I don't think he ate breakfast, what do you think?"

"Well, I think too, because our family doesn't have the habit of eating breakfast...... He always kept the good stuff for me, and always did. Ivan said as he ate. It was like he was eating a sandwich for the first time, and he ate it slowly.

"How can that be done!" Alan jumped out of bed and tried to chase him out, but was stopped by Ivan: "Don't waste your efforts, my brother is very stubborn...... He will not listen to anyone. ”

Alan had to sigh and sit down, a little sad.

At this time, Riel also woke up, as if awakened by the aroma of fried eggs.

"Wow, these gnomes are so sweet, have breakfast been brought to the room, it seems that the money has not been spent in vain!" he said, jumping out of bed and picking up the last one. However, he found that Eren ignored him, just looked at him speechlessly, and Ivan's face was slightly embarrassed.

When they had finished their breakfast and washed up, it was almost eight o'clock, so they decided to go to the door of the auditorium and wait.

I didn't run into the nasty Stewart and Bilber in the hallway this time, and they probably hadn't woken up yet. But when they reached the first floor, Alan accidentally caught a glimpse of a familiar figure sneaking into the lounge. Alan recognized the figure and quickly followed, peeking through the crack in the door and seeing that it was Ian. He was gobbling up the rest of the breakfast that the other kids at the table had eaten.

Seeing this scene, Alan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and stood there still.

Ian kept the good for them, but here he ate the rest of the rest.

Riel noticed his anomaly and asked as Ivan walked this way, "What's wrong, Alan?"

Alan hurriedly walked back to stop them before they could come: "No, it's nothing...... Uh, Stewart and Bilber are in it. He didn't want Ivan to see his brother like that.

"Oh! I don't want to see these two nasty ghosts again!" Allen's words worked, and Rare immediately turned around and walked out of the dormitory.

Alan had no choice but to look back again, sighed, and went out.

The Four Seasons Garden outside the door is fragrant, and you can take a deep breath and feel refreshed. The flowers are in full bloom, too, and although it is September, the garden is full of purple and red, as if it were spring. The Four Seasons Rose alone comes in more than a dozen colors such as red, yellow, pink, blue, and purple, and with the addition of orange Four Seasons Tulips and white Four Seasons Orchids, it looks simply picturesque.

After taking two steps into the garden, Alan saw a small four-season orchid growing at his feet, so he squatted down to take a closer look. It grows short, only about half the height of the other four seasons, and the flowers are smaller than the other flowers, and if you don't stand next to it, this whiteness can easily be drowned out in the midst of all the purples and reds.

"Probably this is rustic. Unobtrusive, but it has its own fragrance. Alan thought.
