Time and Space Mage - Light and Darkness

The faces of the lovely children changed like magic: "If it's true, then so be it."

"Lord Dean—" Jermaine said helplessly with a headache.

"Hehe, I'm teasing them, you really have no sense of humor." Ai Ruo wiped his beard, his eyes narrowed and he gave Jermaine a displeased look, then turned his head and continued to say to Aieran and the others. : "Because of your meritorious service this time, the Narrow Empire actually gave you more than 1000 credits at one time. In addition to your previous primary assessments and fellowship competitions, the accumulated colleges have fully reached the graduation target."

As soon as the voice fell, the audience was in an uproar.

"Graduation?!" Indel clapped his hands suddenly: "Is it really possible?!"

"It's up to you to choose." Ai Ruo smiled slightly.

"I'm going to travel around the world!" Indel looked back at Billig excitedly, and said, "What about you? Let's go together if it's okay!"

Billig frowned, and said for a while: "...I may inherit my father's business."

"Cut." Indel gave a blank look, then looked at Al Ann and Xibo next to him and said, "What about you? There is no father's business to inherit!"

However, what was strange was that he found that the complexions of Aieran and Xibo were not very good, and he didn't even answer his words, but heard Aieran whisper to Ai Ruo: "That, Mr. Dean, Phini You promised me before that you would approve me to work in the palace, I don't know..."

Ai Ruo's expression changed, and Jermaine looked at him silently, and the atmosphere became a little weird for a moment.

After a long while, just when Er'an was about to speak again, Ai Ruo, who had been silent all this time, spoke slowly.

He said: "According to reports, His Royal Highness Finney was found a month ago with the maid Stone, and the two fled the main city overnight, and their whereabouts are still unknown."

The author has something to say: restore the normal word count, please praise me╭(╯3╰)╮

60

60. Graduation situation [2]...

"..." Everyone was stunned, and the empty hall fell silent for a moment. After a while, Billig said uncertainly, "What's the matter, the people inside the main city told me that they just left the city?" ?”

"The only one who went out of the city is His Majesty England III. And he went out without revealing any information, and even I didn't find out the purpose of his trip, so if you don't deliberately understand, no one will be aware of the Las Vegas Empire. The emperor is not in the main city at all right now." Ai Ruo clasped his chin with his hands crossed, and continued: "Besides, the matter of Fei Ni has been concealed and has not been announced."

"Fini..." Er'an only felt his head go blank, and whispered again and again: "Fini... how is it possible..."

"How could it be possible to elope with the maid Stone? This reason is too..." It sucks.

Indel made a haha ​​in displeasure, and said.

Ai Ruo stroked his beard, shrugged his shoulders and said, "If the news is spread like this, then the rumors will also become facts. The current situation is that he is indeed missing."

"..." Er'an grabbed the collar of the school uniform, bit her lower lip and did not speak.

"Of course, El Ann, when we entered the academy at the beginning of school, we promised that we would find a suitable job for a child like you after graduation, so if you insist on going to the main city, I can also introduce you to the imperial court. The sorcerer took you in." Ai Ruo looked at Aier'an, who looked miserable for a moment, thinking that the other party was just melancholy because the backer disappeared, which led to the fact that he could not go to work in the main city. The voice opened to comfort.

"..." Er'an was stunned for a moment, and suddenly subconsciously looked back at Xibo.

However, in the next second, it was a face with an unchanged expression.

——Our contract, until you graduate.

Suddenly, the words that were so far away that Er'an almost forgot flashed in his mind again.

Er'an lowered his eyes, he almost forgot that both he and his elves have a time limit.

"How is it? Er'an?" Seeing that the other party didn't answer for a long time, Ai Ruo couldn't help repeating with a higher volume.

El Ann clenched his fists and pursed his lips, suddenly feeling self-deceiving. After all, Xibo was only delayed for so long because of his own necklace.

That's why he is insensitive and expressionless.

After a pause, he spoke softly.

"it is good."

"I promise."

……

Ai Ruo nodded, and immediately gave instructions to another mentor next to him.

Er'an lowered his head and continued: "If Mr. Dean has nothing to do, then I... will go back first."

"Go back." Jermaine waved his hand: "Remember to go back to the classroom tomorrow."

El Ann turned his head and left.

And Indel, who was still standing in the main hall, poked Billig at the side in a daze, and muttered in a low voice: "What's going on? How do I feel...Eiran was very sad when he agreed just now? No, despair?"

Billig frowned, and looked at the back of the other party who was gradually going away without saying anything.

"Huh? Xibo?" Indel suddenly raised his voice, waved his hands and said, "Aren't you going with El Ann?"

Xibo turned around and flashed out.

The hot summer sun scorched the entire interior of the college anxiously, and the noisy cicadas were clamoring wantonly in the trees.

El An walked and ran, and then went faster and faster, and returned to the dormitory alone without stopping.

However, there was no movement behind him.

He slid and sat down along the door eaves somewhat decadently.

……

In fact, if El'an had turned his head slightly when he agreed to Ai Ruo just now, he could actually see Xibo's stunned and stunned expression.

However, he didn't.

……

When eating in the evening, El Ann was still called by Billig. Indel, who was standing at the door, saw that El Ann was the only one, and asked in amazement: "Is Xibo not with you?" ?”

Er'an was taken aback, and asked back, "Isn't he with you?"

"..." Indel and Billig looked at each other, not knowing what to play.

"Forget it." Eiran gritted his teeth and whispered, "Let's go eat first."

"Hey." Indel narrowed his eyes and glanced at him: "To be honest, did you quarrel with Xibo?"

Al settled down and said, "No."

"Really?" Indel asked endlessly.

Billig reached out and stabbed him with an elbow, then smiled at El Ann, "It's fine if there's no one, maybe the elves will hold a meeting today, so Xibo has to go to the appointment."

Indel, Al Ann: ...

Then, the three of them came to the college cafeteria as usual, but it was obvious that the atmosphere this time was much more lifeless than before. The setting sun shone warmly on the earth, which made people's sense of depression even higher.

In the old seat, while eating, Billig looked at Er'an, who couldn't stop looking out of the glass window, and suddenly wanted to liven up the atmosphere and said, "Are you in the dormitory all afternoon?"

Indel took a bite of the steak and replied inarticulately: "Aren't I with you?"

"..." Billig rolled his eyes several times: "I didn't ask you."

"Speak clearly." Indel hummed indifferently.

"Air Ann?" Billig looked at the absent-minded guy opposite, and could only call out his name.

"Huh? Hmm... Today's steamed buns are delicious." Al'an suddenly came back to his senses, and smiled awkwardly at him.

"..." Billig paused, and said for a while, "Forget it..."

Strangely, El'Ann didn't ask any more questions, but began to distract himself while biting the steamed bun carefully.

Dinner was more dull.

Billig and Indel had sent Al-Ann to his bedroom downstairs before turning back.

After thanking Er'an repeatedly, he went upstairs slowly.

Pushing open the carved wooden door, he fiddled with the wall for a long time and finally touched the switch, and turned on the light with a snap in the next second.

But he saw a white figure sitting in front of the desk with his back facing him, as before.

"Where have you been.

Er'an was taken aback for a moment, but for some reason, the next words were still stuck in his throat. He shook his head, picked up the change of clothes and went straight into the bathroom.

There was no sound outside, El Ann leaned against the back of the door and sighed a little discouraged, took off his clothes and looked at his own childish cheeks in the mirror, got into the bathtub unavoidably depressed, and then simply put his whole head They were all buried in it.

After washing, changing clothes, and opening the door to go out, there was still no movement outside.

White-hot water vapor wafted out along it, and a fresh scent after bathing filled the whole room. Er'an looked up at the back of the motionless figure sitting in front of the desk, and clenched his hands holding the towel tightly. .

He lowered his head, and simply ran to the bed and lay down. This time, Elann slept sideways to the innermost side, and his forehead touched the hard wall. However, he didn't sleep, he just opened his eyes wide and listened to his frightened heartbeat. Voice.

After an unknown amount of time, El'Ann finally felt the movement of the figure behind him. He immediately pricked up his ears, listening to Xibo's footsteps as usual, went into the bathroom, then came out, and lay down again.

But the back-to-back distance between the two is as wide as one person.

El Ann clasped his hands in front of his chest and huddled into a ball. In fact, many times he wanted to turn over and hug Xibo, but his timidity made him stop here.

No sleep for one night.

……

"Where's El'Ann?" Indel looked at Billig, who was left alone this time, and said speechlessly.

Billig shook his head: "There is no one in the dormitory, so I guess I should go to the classroom."

Indel shrugged helplessly, looked at the college time and said, "Let's go to dinner first, there is still class today."

Billig looked back at the dormitory building again worriedly, and finally sighed
