Chapter 533 A master of arts is bold
Two days later, Lariel and Kanyon finally set out on their journey home.
Although both of them were still very sick, the lizardmen judged that their current injuries were enough to withstand the spatial turbulence in the teleportation array, and they were determined to take them away immediately.
"Lilith." Lyrael held Lilith's hand with tears in his eyes. "I will definitely come again!"
Lilith covered his mouth with her hand, gave the lizardmen an awkward smile, and dragged Lariel into the group of companions, muttering farewell words.
The other side is much quieter.
Kanyon couldn't even walk as he was tied to the back of a tall lizardman. Cynthia lowered her head and checked again and again whether the knots were firm. Kanyon tilted his head so that he could see his mother's gray head.
"Mom..." Canion's voice was very low, but Cynthia immediately raised her head.
"Goldia, there is no teleportation array that takes you directly to the Elf Forest. They will take you to Blackrock Dor first. That is the territory of the dwarves. It is safe and convenient to go to the Elf Forest from there. You don't have to be afraid." Cynthia explained in a gentle voice.
"Can't I stay? I want to go home..."
Catherine, who was standing aside, looked at her mother when she heard this.
Cynthia felt her heart twist. Although she was reluctant, she still shook her head firmly, "Don't forget why you went to the Elf Forest, Kanyon."
He made an unforgivable mistake, and going to the Elf Forest was already giving him a chance to start over.
"I won't cause trouble again, Mother—" Kanyon begged in a low voice.
"Where can you stay?" Catherine interrupted in a stern voice, not wanting her mother to waver. "There's no place for elves in the Gaia Empire. Your uncle has been hunting elves for years and is very experienced. No one can guarantee your safety near Highgarden. Go to Ozler? What can you do? Do you have the ability to protect yourself? Your mother's life is tied to yours. If you are in danger, she will die too."
He used to complain about his mother's favoritism all day long, but after this, if he had any common sense, he would have understood that in his mother's heart they were all the same.
Canion fell silent amidst Catherine's series of questions.
"Parting is for a better reunion." Cynthia touched Canion's face for the last time. "The magic mastered by elves is far more profound than that of humans. Study hard and become a useful person."
"He's an upright man." Catherine added, "Larelle himself doesn't mind the trouble you've brought upon him, but he also has parents. You should formally apologize to his family when you return."
Canion was so ashamed by what Catherine said that he could not even raise his head.
Seeing that he had given up the idea of staying, Catherine sighed. Given the current situation, she didn't know if she would be able to see her brother again in the future. She also hoped to say goodbye to him properly, but she couldn't help but blame him as soon as she opened her mouth.
"...Live well." Catherine turned her face away stiffly.
On Lilith's side, everyone had already said goodbye to Lyrael one by one. She was not allowed to step out of the school gate and could only watch them leave. Cynthia was worried about Ozler, so after seeing her son off, she did not waste a moment and set off on her way home. The huge crowd was now reduced to only a few scattered people, and it looked quite desolate.
Lulu also felt the sad atmosphere and sighed deeply, "Although separation is for reunion, reunion will also lead to separation again..."
"Ah, the happiness we have when we are together is meant to be savored again and again when we are alone." Jaina walked forward and hugged Lulu to comfort her.
"Yes, I think that's what friends mean." Hannah nodded in agreement.
"That's what I said..." Lulu's face was still full of sadness. "I don't know when I'll see such a beautiful face like Lariel again. What a pity..."
This is true, and several girls sighed in unison.
other people:……
Life seemed to be back on track. Although there was still no news of Leila, Lilith sent a letter to Dragonfang Castle. She believed that Melissa would not allow cheap Old Deng to delay her daughter from becoming the First Knight. She would definitely take action. Lilith's daily routine became classes and training again, but now there was an additional thing -
"Take me there, take me there." Lilith slashed with her sword, but she kept muttering to herself like chanting a mantra.
"Are you done yet?" Lucas gritted his teeth and fought back awkwardly.
——The new daily routine is to pester Lucas to take her to Jinghu Library.
"I'm not causing any trouble. I just want to visit the principal. I won't make you lose your job." Lilith assured him, but she was ruthless. The opponent raised his sword and chopped down, but there was a flaw in front of him. She took the opportunity to bend down and kick him. Lucas knelt on the ground, holding his stomach.
Is this the attitude of asking for help? ! ! — Lucas cursed in his heart.
He always had a brass key hanging inside his shirt, which was given to him by Mr. Simon to facilitate access to the library. He was the only student in the school who had it, and he regarded it as an honor, but Mr. Simon never said that he could take anyone in for a tour.
"Stop! Rest! I want to rest! Aren't you Mr. Simon's student? Go and ask him yourself. If he agrees, I will take you in." Lucas climbed up, holding the key on his chest, grimacing in pain.
"If I could catch him, would I not tell you? That guy is always elusive, and you've seen him more often than I have!" Lilith angrily stepped forward and pulled him. She hadn't met this person for a long time. Teacher Simon was really a mysterious person.
"Huh? Actually, I seldom ran into him in the library recently. The few times I ran into him, he was always in a hurry. He said..." Lucas brushed off the dust while recalling bitterly.
"What?" Lilith and he walked to the edge of the training ground. Ian was already resting under a tree. Lilith took out a water bottle and shared it with the students nearby.
"It seems that someone has been sneaking in recently, and the protective array in the school has been repaired again and again?" Lucas recalled. These words were not said to him. Although Principal Gloria was not very sensitive to the sounds from the outside world, Mr. Simon would talk to her patiently for a while every time he came, and tell her a few things that happened on campus. He listened from the side.
"Teacher Simon actually knows how to do things?" Lilith was surprised, then asked, "A thief? Who is so talented and bold enough to steal from Gloria?"
Lucas could only shrug. How would he know?
Lilith raised her head to drink water with confusion, and just in time she caught a glimpse of a dark shadow under a tree in the distance.
"Puff——" She spat out a mouthful of water, attracting everyone's attention.
"Are you okay?" Ian looked puzzled.
"No, no, it's okay!" She wiped it twice and looked over again. The black shadow disappeared again.
But she never doubted the look in her eyes—it was Zephyrion.
