“… ..."
Looking at the man leaning against the railing with his eyes in trance, wearing dark purple A girl with a delicate appearance and short dark green hair in a teacher's uniform. At this time, Luke Tefero, who should have been on the other side of the continent, slightly raised the corner of his mouth. After a while, he raised his hand with a smile and said hello: "Hey, Long time no see.”
“Yeah!”
The intern lecturer of the Necromancer Department of Naxxramas Comprehensive College, the high-level Necromancer Elephis Sulk, who had just turned nineteen this year, let out a soft cry, and then turned his head sharply to look at the person who had appeared at an unknown time. The boy next to him was stunned for several seconds before grinning with a red face and said: "Long time no see, Luke. Although I write letters every month, the words are still different from the real person."
"Is there any?"
Has been taken over by the Battle Sisters I have been out of the house for more than two years, and I just celebrated my sixteenth birthday. Currently, Luke Tefero, who serves as a chaplain in the Knights Templar of the Dawn Sect, shrugged and joked: "I think it's actually about the same. After all, I'm good-looking and my handwriting is also good-looking, so I read the letter with There shouldn’t be much difference when looking at people.”
Eliphis turned pale like Tiphilo, and said angrily: "Everyone knows that it is true that you are good-looking, but can you let others say such things in the future?"
"You all know that you are good-looking. If it’s true, then it doesn’t make any difference.”
Luke blinked, then walked slowly to Elphis and gave the latter a firm hug: "I'm so glad to see you again, Effie."
"!"
The talented graduate of Naxxramas Comprehensive Academy was slightly shaken, then narrowed his eyes and patted the young man's back gently: "...You have worked hard these past few years, Lu. Add."
"Stop it, even you are called a genius, what else can you do to make me have trouble?"
Tifiro was happy. After saying something, he let go of Ellipis and smiled: "Okay, that's it for the long-awaited hug. If I remember correctly, Ms. Sulk was among the students and many They are very popular among young teachers. If someone accidentally sees me... Tsk, you should be fine, but my reputation will be ruined in one moment."
Ellipis glared at Tyfilo fiercely, gritted her teeth and said, "You kid, why are you still not cute at all?"
"Because cuteness is no longer popular at this age."
Tifilo said something casually, and then leaned lazily on the railing and yawned: "Haha~ By the way, how does it feel to be a teacher? Is the work going well? Is there any smart kid looking for you? you It’s troublesome.”
“It’s pretty good overall.”
Slowly walking to Tifilo’s side, Elephis also leaned on the railing: “For work, I was a little confused at the beginning, but with the help of several mentors, I didn't cause any trouble, and now I'm on the right track. As for the blind kid who causes trouble... isn't there one in front of me?"
As a result, Tyfilo just pretended that he didn't hear him and actually looked away and whistled.
"Okay, okay, usually when I write to you, I should always talk about the college's affairs, but you, in addition to answering my topics, basically don't even mention your own affairs. I didn’t even mention it. Since I came here this time, let’s explain it properly.”
Elphis lowered her eyes and asked softly: “First question, how is Shamar? "
"Missing"
Tifilo smiled with joy and said in a brisk tone: "If you are asking about Shamar Pratt, then both of them. Disappeared years ago”
Ellipis tilted her head and glanced at Tifilo. After a moment of silence, she asked, "What about the saint of your Dawn Sect, Her Highness Xialian Zhuye? How is she doing recently?"
"I'm not sure. After all, I am now a military chaplain in the Knights Templar. In the past two years, I have not been back to the City of Light to accompany my godfather and godmother much, and I have not had much interaction with His Highness. "
Tiphilo didn't show any surprise, but asked with a half-smile after saying the above words: "What? She came to see you recently and revealed her identity by the way? ?”
Elphis did not answer him, but continued to ask: “How is the Knights of Templar? Is it hard for you to come here? "Did you sneak out without telling everyone?"
Tiphilo casually lit up a beautiful butterfly that was more like a star than a twinkling star, while controlling it in front of him. Flying gracefully, he said with a smile: "I am also a favored person of the gods. Even if I am in an ordinary position like a military chaplain, when I am surrounded by friends from the same sect, I will definitely receive special care, so I feel pretty good. If it's hard work, I think the work of the Knights is much simpler than teaching Shamal the magic. As for whether he escaped secretly... Haha, that's fine. Needless to say, my "Morning Regiment" is currently on a mission in the Dark Forest. If I want to come here, I will definitely have to sneak away."
Raising her right hand to let the butterfly rest on the back of her hand, Ellipis asked with a chuckle: "Can they really let go of you, the precious God's Favored One, so easily?"
"It's not a big problem. , our group leader was called back for a meeting by the City of Light last week, and Hans Anderson, the kid who temporarily led the group during this period, has a good relationship with me."
Tifilo gave way. The butterfly on the back of Ellipis's hand kept changing color, and she said with a smile: "So if that guy helps me hide it, at least it will be foolproof until the leader comes back."
"Oh oh. , When will your leader go back?”
“Yesterday.”
"Eh?"
"So if nothing else happens, poor Hans should have already begun to be punished."
Tiphilo crossed himself on his chest with a pious face. , pretending to sigh: "I will always remember him, my friend who died young, the talented paladin Hans Anderson——"
Ellipis burst out laughing, He lightly poked Tiphilo on the shoulder: "You kid, how do you know how to harm others? Oh, forget it. Anyway, I see that you are fine now, so I feel relieved."
Tiphilo Grinning, he nodded cheerfully and said, "That's that."
Then, the two of them fell into silence involuntarily, because Elephith, who was leading the conversation, knew very well how heavy the next question was, and Tifilo also knew what Elephis planned to ask.
However, even so, this beautiful young man who was leaning lazily on the railing with a slight smile on his lips had no intention of taking over the topic and making his old friend less embarrassed.
So, it was Elephith who finally broke the silence first - "I have heard a little bit about Margaret."
This one Her face was no longer childish, and the freckles and acne on her face had long since disappeared. The girl who had grown into a grown-up girl at some point pursed her lips and asked softly: "Is it really...her? The new member of the Dark Night Sect? Jin Saintess.”
Tifilo shrugged and said casually: "Who knows, after all, names like Margaret and Elephith are quite vulgar. Even if they are just the same name, it wouldn't be new, right?"
Elphis sighed and smiled bitterly: "You came all the way to Academy City just to tell me such nonsense? Let’s get to the point, Luke. Although I still have a lot of time to waste, every minute is precious to you, isn’t it?”
“I don’t feel old. It’s a waste of time for my friend to talk more, but since you want me to get straight to the point, that’s fine.”
Tiffy. Luo Congshan nodded, then smiled and asked Elephis: "I remember the time before Margaret disappeared. You should have met her several times, right?"
< br>Ellipis nodded slightly and said softly: "Yes, I also wrote to you at that time, because I had just made up my mind at that time. I wanted to go back to college to become a teacher, so in order to prepare for the exam with peace of mind, I moved from the outer ring district, where the rent was cheaper, to the middle ring district, which is close to the library and relatively quiet. Margaret helped me find the house, and we lived together. When I was very tired from studying and didn’t want to cook, I would go to her for a meal.”
"It sounds really enviable."
Tiphilo shrugged and sighed: "If the biscuits baked by Margaret can make people want to swallow their own tongues and eat them, , the snacks baked by Shamar can physically smash any tooth that is overestimated."
"Haha, are you talking about that time two years ago?"
Eliphis laughed and said with great nostalgia: "I remember that I filled your teeth at that time."
Tifilo made a face, and then the atmosphere became tense. After relatively calming down before, he continued to ask: "So, did you notice anything different about Margaret during that time? Compared with normal times."
"Well, if there was anything obviously abnormal, I would have written to you as soon as possible."
Elphis's mood dropped visibly, and she said with her eyes lowered: " I was focused on preparing for the exam. Luke, you also know that the nature of our college is quite special, and the necromancy major I applied for is the most special and sensitive among them, so even if the requirements for students are not high, But if you want to be admitted to the hospital to teach, you have to pass very strict theoretical and practical examinations. As for me... although I had the advantage of being recognized by the teachers when I was a student, there were probably no problems in the interview process, but the theory and practice before joining the job There is no room for sloppiness in the practical exam, so..."
Tifilo smiled slightly, and smiled at Elephith, whose expression was full of annoyance: "So you were actually a good person during that time. You have been being taken care of by Margaret, well, I guess that's the case, after all, you were in a critical period at the time, and Margaret was in the seventh grade, which is the easiest grade at Tianhui Theological Seminary. With her character, she will definitely try her best to take care of you. "
"Yeah... I spent most of my time in the library every day. I could forget to eat nine lunches in ten days, including breakfast, dinner and midnight snacks. Basically it’s all Mag Li Te is helping to prepare."
Alifes gently fiddled with the soft moonlight butterfly on the back of her hand, and said softly: "You know what happened next, I passed the exam successfully. Alma Mater [Naxxramas], and Margaret also graduated successfully a week later as the best student in two hundred years. The two of us held a small celebration party, and then...then..."< br>
Ellipis's eyes turned red and she couldn't speak any more.
"Then Margaret disappeared on the way to the Capital of Light."
Tifilo narrowed his eyes slightly and said softly: "Until three days ago, the Dark Night Cult official Announced the existence of their new saint..."
Elphis took a deep breath, turned her head and stared at Tifilo steadily: "Sure enough, you also think what they said That saint is the Margaret Mazhi we know.”
“I’m not 100% sure.”
Tifilo shook his head and said with a solemn gaze: "But you also know the relationship between our Dawn Sect and the Dark Night Sect. Just like our Lord Pakosi and the Dark Goddess Delia, our two sects have been together since the establishment of the sect. There was an irreconcilable hostile relationship from the beginning, and countless large-scale wars broke out thousands of years ago. Although the Dawn Sect became one of the axes of the Holy Religion Union, the Dark Night Sect gradually became dormant in the dark world. There are few head-on conflicts, but secret fights never stop, and in this case... In addition to the Dark Night Sect itself, the first person to know that the Dark Goddess has a favored person will be me, Shuguang. Sect."
Elphis followed the train of thought and suddenly said: "But the Dawn Sect has never known that there is a saint named 'Margaret' in the Dark Night Sect all these years!"
"That's it."
Tiphilo nodded and said seriously: "So although I am not 100% sure, the 'Saint Margaret' of the Dark Night Sect has been The possibility that it has just been discovered is actually quite high. In other words..."
Elphis let out a feeble groan and said with a pale face: "That saint is probably the one we know. Margaret ”
"Don't be like this, Effie."
Tiphilo gently patted Elphis's trembling shoulder, and smiled: "The Dark Night Sect is not an evil and weird cult. Compared to being an outstanding priest with a bright future in our Dawn Sect, I personally feel that the identity of the 'Dark Saint' is more noble. After all, for the vast majority of priests, the word "god's favor" has real value. It’s too high.”
Elifes eyes suddenly widened: “Huh?”
“What I said is true, it is true to be a saint in the Dark Night Sect. There's nothing wrong with that."
"But you are..."
"It's true that I am a member of the Dawn Sect, but even if I beat the brains out of those followers of the Dark Goddess, it does not mean that I think the Dark Night Sect is evil."
"This..."
< br> "So the main purpose of my visit this time is to tell you that if that person is really the Margaret we know, you can be happy that not only is she fine, but she has become a favored one by God. Anyway, you are not Shuguang "
"But you..."
"I will choose the latter between faith and friends."
"Tiphilo!?"
"After all, my master has never baked me delicious cookies~"
