The day when I was forcibly bound by an NPC

Jiang Zhaonian returned to the mage's courtyard with a heavy heart, and happened to run into the mage who came out of the house.

Seeing Jiang Zhaonian, he was a little surprised: "Where did you go?"

"Oh, I went out to look for materials, and I left a note for you in the living room." Jiang Zhaonian held up the things he picked up on the way back.

The mage just said: "Don't go too far, be careful to meet that elf."

"Okay." Jiang Zhaonian replied with a guilty conscience.

Looking at the back of the mage turning into the studio, he suddenly frowned, realizing that the mage's schedule seemed to be full again these two days.Although I still eat and sleep on time, I am always in a hurry, and spend all my other time in the studio.

Jiang Zhaonian was a little worried that if he had to leave after the winter, the mage would return to his original state without anyone to take care of him.

He rubbed his chin and suddenly thought of what to give as a parting gift.

He wants to send the mage a smart schedule reminder.He greets him intimately every day and cares about his daily life, rain or shine.

On the one hand, it can prevent the mage from working until he forgets the time without being reminded, on the other hand, it can definitely increase the sense of presence.

As for the "smart" aspect, although this world doesn't even have electricity... but there is magic here.With some effort, it should still be possible.It's just that it takes more thought to do it quietly behind the mage's back.

……

Jiang Zhaonian was preparing commemorative gifts for the mage, while remembering the actions of Tivis.

Unexpectedly, Tevez was really calm this time.I haven't contacted him for several days, as if I completely forgot about the time-limited agreement, and I am not even obsessed with making friends with Jiang Zhaonian anymore.

Instead, Jiang Zhaonian couldn't sit still.

A few days later, he used the same excuse to sneak out again, headed all the way to the Gloomy Mountains, and found Tivis.

Tevez was still very happy to see him, as if he had been looking forward to Jiang Zhaonian's arrival these days.

Of course, Jiang Zhaonian didn't really come to advise him, he came with the mission of finding out the real purpose of Tivis, and kept trying.

I don't know whether it's abnormal or he expected it, but Tevez's interest in "pursuing an admirer" really doesn't seem very high.When Jiang Zhaonian was discussing with him, he listened gently and occasionally put forward one or two opinions.

Like those principles of love, Tevez is very happy to communicate with Jiang Zhaonian, but whenever the topic turns to practice, Tevez will use various excuses, such as "it's not the time", "will the other party be too abrupt?" ", "This is too much... Is there a more innocent one?" and other reasons, or deny the rejection, or change the subject calmly.

Then at the end of this meeting, when Jiang Zhaonian was about to go back, he regretfully said: "It's really not easy to find love...Let's think about other ideas next time."

In this way, during the planning process of "next time next time", Jiang Zhaonian gradually discovered that Tevez really seemed to have no plans to do anything, and completely showed a harmless and innocent appearance.

His "doesn't plan to do anything" not only means that he doesn't plan to arrange a conspiracy, but even that excuse, "the one who pursues his love", he doesn't seem to plan to put it into action.

With too many times, Jiang Zhaonian became more or less suspicious.He began to wonder if there was such a person, and with the harmlessness shown by Tevez, Jiang Zhaonian wanted to let go of this matter several times and leave directly.

But the strange thing is, I don't know if it's a coincidence, whenever he is about to say goodbye to Teves, the gentle and harmless Teves will suddenly show his blackened side in a small way.

Or deliberately whitewashing the peace, but emphasizing a kind of unusualness; or directly hinting at Jiang Zhaonian what he intends to do.

Jiang Zhaonian had no choice but to leave, and he couldn't just walk away with complete peace of mind, and continuing to "make suggestions" was not a matter.

Winter passed day by day, and the day of leaving the mage was getting closer and closer.The gradually thinning calendar kept warning Jiang Zhaonian that he would leave the mage soon.And now he didn't even figure out whether he needed to guard against Tivis approaching the mage after he left.

After being hanged twice again, Jiang Zhaonian finally couldn't take it anymore, he decided to come straight.

Ask Tivis directly if he is still ready to act, whether that person really exists, or ask the question he really wants to ask the most—have you been playing tricks on me?

Jiang Zhaonian skillfully left a note for the mage and walked towards Tivis' residence.

The mage came out of the studio, ready to rest for a while before continuing.

He was in a good mood, made himself a pot of tea comfortably, and took out the snacks that Jiang Zhaonian baked last night.

After several days of intensive work, the production of the magic amulet is finally about to be completed, and it can be handed over to Jiang Zhaonian after he finishes the final process and adjusts it later.

Thinking of this, the mage saw the note left on the table.

He raised the teacup to his mouth, picked up the piece of paper and read it.

Going to collect materials again?

Fa Shi frowned slowly, he was immersed in his work these few days and didn't pay close attention to Jiang Zhaonian's state.

Thinking about it now, why doesn't it feel right.

Almost two days out of every three days he runs out, collecting materials most of the time.

The question is, are there so many materials that he needs to collect?Could it be some kind of trouble?

The mage took note of this matter, and was going to ask Jiang Zhaonian about the situation when he handed the talisman over to him.

&&

Jiang Zhaonian saw Tevez, entered the room under his greeting, and sat down at the dining table.

Tevez served him a drink, but Jiang Zhaonian didn't bother to eat or drink. He smelled of fire|medicine and complained a bit, and asked, "Tevice, are you still going to confess your love? I doubt it." You're kidding me, isn't there such a person at all?"

"How could you play tricks on you, of course." Tevez said, putting down a small jar of candied fruit on the table, he handed the small fork to Jiang Zhaonian, "I just think that when treating the person you like the most, you must Give him my full, thoughtful, measured love."

"The truth is that's right." Jiang Zhaonian picked up a piece of transparent apricot meat and put it in his mouth. "If you keep dragging it on, I doubt that you will be able to drag it until they have children."

"You want me to confess so much?" Tevez took out a small can from the table, and while unscrewing the cap, he looked at Jiang Zhaonian with burning eyes.

Jiang Zhaonian was watched by him, inexplicably felt that Tivis's eyes were deep and strange, as if he wanted to follow his own eyes to see the bottom line.

He was a little uncomfortable and said, "What do you mean I want you to confess? I just think you've been preparing for so long, so it's time for you to take action?"

Tevez suddenly clasped the canning jar that he had just opened: "Actually, I have already prepared almost all the things I should prepare. Since you also think it's time to take action, can you come and do me a favor?"

"What's the matter?" Jiang Zhaonian dropped his fork and hurriedly got up to follow.

"I've planted lots of frostweed just waiting for this day. Can you come with me...to make them into wreath bouquets?"

"Of course, shall we go now?"

"Ah."

Jiang Zhaonian couldn't help looking forward to it, and he was really relieved.

Finally, it was time to confirm who Tevez's target was... If it wasn't a mage, he would be completely relieved.If it was someone else, he would find a way to tell the other party the truth and suggest that the other party should not agree to Tivis' invitation.

But I won't do any unnecessary things, it just depends on how the other party chooses.

……

The mage assembled the last shell of the amulet, took a breath, and wiped the surface of the amulet with a felt cloth.

He put the amulet on an instrument, read the value, and slightly adjusted the magic power.

Even if it is completely finished.

Holding the talisman, the mage walked out of the studio happily, looking for Jiang Zhaonian to put it on for him.

I searched around but didn't see anyone, only the note I left before laying coldly on the table.

The corner of the mage's lips went down, and he squeezed it slightly.

What the hell did this guy do, and he hasn't come back for so long?

The mage loosened his brows and smiled helplessly.

Or I'll go find him.

He sensed it through the magic contract, and was surprised to find that Jiang Zhaonian's location seemed to be deep in the dark mountains.

The mage's smile gradually disappeared, and he narrowed his eyes with a serious expression.

……

Jiang Zhaonian scratched his head: "Isn't it here yet? I see there are a lot of frost grass on the side of the road."

"There is still a way to go, because I need to use a lot, I have planted a whole sea of ​​flowers."

"Okay." Jiang Zhaonian said, and followed Tivis to the top of another mountain.

Tevez stopped suddenly.

"What's the matter, is it already here?"

Tivis didn't speak, Jiang Zhaonian keenly noticed that the atmosphere was a bit weird.

Immediately afterwards, he also climbed to the top of the mountain, and saw the mage coming from another direction.

Jiang Zhaonian: ...

The mage stopped when he saw him.

He didn't make a sound, just watched Jiang Zhaonian silently.

The air was suffocatingly silent for a moment, the mage narrowed his eyes, and said in a cold voice, "Come here—"

Jiang Zhaonian was a little at a loss and couldn't react right away, which immediately aroused the mage's dissatisfaction.

"I told you to stay away from him, is that what you did?" The mage lowered his eyebrows, "Or, my words are just deaf ears to you?"

"No, I'm not, I didn't—" Jiang Zhaonian hurriedly walked towards him.

"Niannian, did we agree to go to Huahai?" Tevez said softly, his voice came faintly from behind him.

"I—" Jiang Zhaonian stopped, half turned around, and looked at him hesitantly.

His eyes flicked back and forth between the two, the mage was indifferent and arrogant, while the elf was begging in sorrow.

Jiang Zhaonian's footsteps were stuck between the two of them, for a moment he didn't know who to walk towards.
