the last magic noble

Chapter 9 Darkness in Light
Allen had talked to me so much, and I could see he was tired too.So I stopped bothering, and with curiosity about my father, I walked out of the lounge stronghold.

But I immediately felt that I was an immature idiot, and I couldn't find my way back to the dormitory!
When I came here, Dale Hurley, an old guy, took me around, and I didn't know where to go, where to go, and where to go.Now the night is approaching again, and my eyes are darkened even more.

After much deliberation, I decided to use the oldest but effective method, to sit on the sidelines.As long as it is someone who comes out of the lounge base, they can always take me out.

So, I sat on the chair next to me and began to wait for I don't know how long it would last.

Soon, I became sleepy and lay on the chair in a daze. Just about to fall asleep, I suddenly heard voices from near the lounge stronghold.

I woke up in a jerk, packed my clothes and prepared to ask them to take me out.

Turning around a corridor, I saw a figure in the distance, and I was about to say hello, when suddenly a black figure covered my mouth from behind, and the other hand dragged me behind the corner.

I was terrified, and thought to myself: Could it be that the evil mage didn't even bother to use spells, and just engaged in kidnapping?That is too sorry for the name of the evil mage.

But I remember that in my hometown, anyone who heard that robbers or pirates came ashore to kidnap tickets was either for money, which was called meat ticket, or for color, which was called flower ticket.

I'm an ordinary-looking countryman, and I can't talk about money and sex. Maybe the robbers will pay me to let me go when they see me.Now directly robbing people here, it can only be the person of the evil mage.

After being dragged aside, the hand covering my mouth was removed, and just as I was about to open my mouth, I gently covered my mouth with both hands, and at the same time let me be quiet with a "shh".

At this time, I smelled the faint smell of roses on my creamy hands, and the faint smell of mint in my breath.Such a familiar smell made me feel relieved.

"Laura." I asked softly.

The shadow nodded and took off the cloak, Laura looked at me worriedly, at this time another shadow also took off the cloak.

"Wende!" With her blond hair and elegant demeanor, I recognized her even in the dark night under the light of the moon.

No, maybe it was Wende's body odor that made me recognize her.

"Why did you tie me up?" I scolded them softly.

At this time, Wende gave me a hard look, motioning for me to be quiet, and then a small whirlwind formed in the palm of his right hand, and the whirlwind turned into a funnel shape as if consciously, and slowly, I heard the conversation between the two people clearly.

One of them said, "Teacher, why did this happen? That kid didn't follow our plan?"

Another person sighed: "Hey, I can't help it. I know that he is extremely talented in magic, but I didn't expect that he can already cast magic uncontrollably and manipulate elements. Moreover, I found out today that he has the magic power that our Hurley family has long lost." The magical perception inherited by human beings, I think he may be much stronger than we thought."

I hear it!It turned out to be Ness Strong and Dale Hurley!
Didn't Dale Hurley have been overdrawn and went back to recuperate?Why do you want to meet Ness Strong secretly at this time?Is this man talking about me?
I pricked up my ears, only to hear Dale Hurley arrange Niss: "You continue to have a good relationship with him, don't make him suspicious, and watch him secretly. Wait for me to investigate things about him."

"What if he is disobedient? Or poses a threat to us?" Ness Strong asked back. Obviously, the two of them did not reach an agreement on how to treat me, an "alien".

Dale Hurley ordered him in a serious tone: "I said that he is not a threat for the time being. Even if it is a threat, I will deal with it. You don't need to worry about it. All you have to do is watch him."

"Yes." Nice Strong was obviously reluctant, but he couldn't go against the teacher's wishes.

Immediately afterwards, the footsteps of the two slowly walked away.

I was leaning against the wall, my mind was in a mess. Ever since my uncle had an accident, my mind had never been sober for a moment. I felt that my views on people were all wrong. I thought Dale was a villain, but he could save me. I just thought He is a good man, but he arranged for someone to watch me and regarded me as a threat.

The same is true of Nice.

Is this the world of nobility?There is no truth between people, all they wear are hypocritical masks, what they say is sugar-coated cannonballs, and what they do are all despicable things under aboveboard.

Seeing me stay where I was, Laura shook me, and I looked at Laura with tears involuntarily streaming from my eyes.Laura hugged me sorely, and I couldn't help it anymore, sobbing.

"Humer, I know what you are thinking. This is the world of the so-called aristocrats. It is always full of hypocrisy under the truth and darkness under the light. But don't worry, I am your friend and will always be with you." Lao Ra said, patting me on the back to comfort me.

At this time Wende came over and said: "Let's go quickly, Laura, you go to the dormitory and wait for me first, I have something to tell you."

When Laura and I returned to the dorm, I calmed down and asked her, "How did you know I was there?"

Laura looked at the fire in the fireplace and said lazily, "We didn't know you were there, we just happened to meet you."

"Then your father..."

When Laura heard the word father, she paused and stopped speaking.I also closed my mouth wisely.

At this moment, Wende threw a thick book in his hand and threw it in front of us with a plop. Then, he folded up his skirt and sat on the ground beside us, and began to flip through the book.

"Wend, this is?" I asked curiously.

"Hummer, we saw all your glorious deeds this morning, but we never saw you again. We were worried, so we looked around, and Laura thought of the most suspicious person, her father, so we We have been following him all the time. After seeing him take you into the secret room, we dare not act rashly, so we can only find a place to hide at the door, and then watch you sleep on the chair. The rest, you I know." Wende flipped through the book, as if looking for something.

Laura said softly: "I'm sorry, Hummer, I didn't expect my father would actually do such a thing, send someone to monitor you, and even list you as a threat to the school."

I asked confusedly, "Wait a minute, I can understand your father's displeasure with me, but why does he regard me as a threat?"

Wende patted me on the head, pointed to a passage in the book, and said, "Here is the answer you want. Check it out for yourself."

I straightened up and began to read this passage following Wende's guidance.

"The Hurley family has inherited countless honors and talents. However, the most regrettable thing is that the Hurley family suddenly lost their natural perception of magic, that is, the flow of elements a hundred years ago. It is rumored that the Hurley family has a mysterious prophecy. Families rise and fall as gifts are lost and found, gained and lost again. The elements change, but the magic lasts forever. --El Sely"

"What does this passage mean?" I read it at a loss.

Wende looked at Laura, and Laura sighed, looked at me and said: "Humer, our Hurley family, your Corinan family, and the Olvia family are the three descendants of the archmage Merlin. Among them, your family has the highest magical talent, followed by the Olvia family and our Hurley family. But our Hurley family has a unique talent, which is the perception of magic and element flow. This power can be said to be the most One of the powerful powers. However, this power was lost later, and no one can inherit this talent. But 100 years ago, the great prophet Professor Dunn made a prophecy, saying that this power will return in the future The Hurley family, but the Hurley family will also cease to exist as this power grows."

Magic perception, does it mean that I have the magic perception of the Hurley family?So I can clearly see the flow of magical elements in Dale Hurley's body?
Wende looked at me at this moment and shook his head: "Poor Hunmo, maybe you are the one who will destroy the Hurley family in this prophecy, no wonder Dale Hurley will..."

When I heard this, I quickly looked at Laura and said, "Laura, do you think I'm really like this?"

Laura didn't say anything, she just squeezed my hand.
