Hate Me, Miss Witch!

Now that he had received the instructions from his immediate superior, the Patriarch of Ashes, the leader of the arsonists no longer chose to waste time.

He spoke in a low voice: "I agree to your deal."

"But -" the leader of the arsonists turned his attention to Aurora beside Char: "You must ensure that she does not destroy the completion of the ceremony."

From the beginning to the end, this blond girl caused him a great sense of oppression.

If the other party didn't leave, even if there were dozens of believers around him to assist him, he couldn't guarantee that there would be no accidents during the fire ceremony.

"Can."

Xia Ya looked at Aurora beside him: "Xiao Ai, you will retreat with Diris and the others later."

Aurora glanced at Char, said nothing, nodded silently, and retreated into the crowd.

"Then let's get started."

Xia looked at the leader of the arsonists in front of him and urged him impatiently, as if what was waiting for him was not a sacrifice, but an outing.

"Be smart, I'm getting tired of waiting."

…

It was said to be a confrontation, but in fact it only happened within a few minutes.

Soon, one student was roughly untied from the ropes on his hands by the arsonists, and he stood up in disgrace.

When they were scattered into a line, the leader of the arsonists raised the sickle in his hand and waved it slightly, and a narrow gap was torn open in the wall of fire.

"You guys are very lucky."

The leader of the arsonists looked at the students who had regained their freedom and spoke in a hoarse voice, reminiscent of a viper buried in the yellow sand.

"I never thought there would be such a fool in this world, willing to sacrifice his own life to save a way for you."

There was some emotion in his words.

Although the two sides were in a hostile position, Xia Ya's hot and pure spirit seemed to be shining.

It's a pity that the other party is going to see the Lord soon.

Of course, for such a shining soul, it may be a blessing to be able to be freed from the dirty floating world and become a part of the Lord.

"Get out of here."

He waved his hand disdainfully at the students.

The students in ragged clothes did not care about their embarrassment and hurriedly evacuated from the opened passage.

When passing by Char, they lowered their heads unconsciously and avoided his sight.

Even on the surface, Char's behavior was mostly because of President Diris——

But Char did save their lives, there is no doubt about it.

Obviously many of them had never even known the name Xia before this.

They asked themselves, if it were them, they would never be able to sacrifice themselves for some classmates whose names they may not even hear.

Such a huge contrast made the students who originally regarded themselves as the proud ones feel particularly ashamed.

The crowd quickly passed through the wall of fire, but Diris remained where she was.

Her pitiful face was burned red by the high temperature of the fire, but she didn't care at all. Instead, she spoke to Alora eagerly.

"What are you doing here? Go and save him."

"I know that Classmate Xia Ya is very strong. The internal archives of the college do not contain all of his strength. He may be stronger than you, and even surpass many professors in the college."

"It is impossible for a person like him to die like this without any resistance. Perhaps he is preparing to wait until he enters the altar before launching a counterattack..."

"But you have never personally experienced what is inside that altar, and you have no idea what kind of existence is being nurtured there..."

The student council members who had tried to attack the altar head-on had already passed out and were being hurriedly carried away from the passage by others.

Among all the teachers and students present, only Diris, who provided assistance at the time, knew what was hidden inside the closed altar...

The black flame that seemed to have gathered all the evil in this world seemed to burn the soul to death if it was only contaminated with the slightest trace.

Even a fourth-level master beast master cannot resist such black flames for long before losing the ability to move.

That's why the arsonists of the Ashes Order dared to safely place the pitch-black altar in the center and let others get close to it, because it was their strongest link, even stronger than the four-ring Patriarch outside the fire array. reliable.

However, in the face of Diris's eager words, Aurora's expression did not waver at all.

She just stood at the entrance of the passage, vaguely blocking Diris who seemed to want to rush into it.

The pale golden shawl hair fluttered with the heat wave, and the cold words echoed gently in the burning sound.

"That was his decision."

This is the decision Xia Ya made after thinking about it.

Therefore, Aurora will not question Char's judgment, let alone delve into the specific details of Char's plan.

She would just appear in the right place at the right time and do what Char expected her to do.

Just as she and Xia had agreed eight years ago in that small icefield city shrouded in black fog and thick smoke.

Diris frowned, completely unable to understand the stubbornness of Alora in front of her. She tried to get around the opponent several times, but found that she had been locked by the sharp energy.

"Just because it was his decision, you have no brainer to believe it? This is a life-and-death gamble, but Classmate Xia Ya lacks a lot of information."

"Have you ever thought about—"

"What should you do if he makes the wrong decision?"

At this moment, Diris was suddenly stunned because she saw the blond girl's sky-blue eyes.

The eyes were very indifferent and still deserted.

But the silent answer contained in it made Diris secretly frightened.

It was only then that Diris discovered that as the person who was supposed to control the overall situation of Saint Laurent Academy... not only Char, but even Aurora, the number one in the academy who often appeared, she had never really understood.

Diris opened her mouth, as if she wanted to confess something, but in the end she still didn't say the words.

That is to say, in Diris's moment of trance, the flames burst out and the wall of flames closed again.

Soon the tutors and troops who were responding from the outside rushed over and took the students away to a safe area away from the college.

According to the exploration of Lieutenant Colonel Sieg's Eye Demon Beast, extremely dangerous magic power fluctuations are brewing in the dark altar. Once it breaks out, most of Saint Laurent College will be reduced to rubble.

Arriving silently in the army's formation, the mental detection light curtain projected by the Eye Demon Pet Beast quickly attracted the attention of all the students.

Only the Ashes Order, who was waiting in full formation, and Char, who was targeted by countless sights and murderous intentions, were left in the fire scene.

The leader of the arsonists spoke something.

Then everyone saw in the light curtain, Xia walked towards the dark altar with his hands in his pockets.

That thin back figure now looked particularly tall in the eyes of the teachers and students of Saint Laurent College.

We are embarking on a road of no return called a hero.
