－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

When the door opened, it was Jenny dressed in green. Her visit surprised Irene who opened the door.

Irene said somewhat restrainedly: "Hello, what's the matter?"

"I'm Jenny," Jenny said with the same expressionless expression, "I'm Mrs. Farrell's student. I need to ask Miss Hina. Is she here now?"

"I'm here," Hina heard that she was looking for her, and walked over. When she saw the girl who defeated Nefarian yesterday, she was somewhat surprised and even more curious.

Jenny was somewhat surprised when she saw Hina's real appearance, but she quickly replied, and said calmly, "Mrs. Farrell wants you to go to her for something."

"Ms. Farrell?" Hina fell into a moment of thought. The name seemed familiar. After thinking about it carefully, she seemed to be the beautiful aunt she met when she first came here. If the girl in front of her didn't mention it, she would have forgotten it. That lady is gone, I remember when she said she was free to go there for a sit-down.

Kalia also came up and said to Hina: "Nana, since the madam ordered you to go quickly, the madam still has a lot of status in the school or among the upper nobles of the empire, don't make her wait for a long time , it's not good to be close to her, believe me."

Hina nodded, then turned to Jenny and said, "Then wait a moment, I'll come as soon as I'm ready."

……

Hina followed Jenny, and in order to show her respect, she specially changed into a long dress that Kalia said was beautiful. To be honest, she is still not used to herself in women's clothing. It has its own status.

The two of them didn't speak a word along the way, and Hina actually wanted to say something.

To be honest, yesterday she saw Jenny's ethereal movement when she dodged, thinking how cool it would be if she learned this move, and it would be very helpful for escaping.Back then, I kept hearing from the old man that it was best to reach the strength of a high-level mage before starting the training of a melee swordsman.But in fact, the expected trajectory is still slightly deviated.

Hina has always thought that she is not suitable for long-range attacks. Even the current magic circle is a unique fighting method created by combining the actual combat experience at the time. Although it is not bad, it still feels nondescript.Most of the current battle magics are thought to be used in conjunction with the melee form in the future.

It doesn't mean that you have to reach high-level strength before returning to practice again. The old man also emphasized that high-level strength means of escape can protect himself.To be honest, as long as you activate the flame jet circle and fly into the sky, you can achieve absolute self-protection.And if it continues like this, apart from improving the proficiency in the long-range use of Yuanli, there is not much development potential. After all, I was originally a fighter, and I gradually lost my enthusiasm for always attacking from a distance. I think it is time to learn new things. , although you have to start over.

And what I want to learn the most now is Jeni's flowing shadow-like body skills, and the momentary stagnation brought about by Nefarian's best efforts when releasing the Frozen Sword also inspired her to some extent. , she really wants to learn.And what I heard about the sanctuary conference from Irene in the morning gave me a sense of urgency. I think at that time, maybe I could meet a young man who made me afraid, although she never wanted to admit that there are more people in this world than before. I am a more talented young man, but I still want to go there to confirm that it is safer.

……

The villa Mrs. Farrell lives in is larger than that of ordinary teachers, and the decoration does not seem to be like the standard five-person room in other teachers' apartments. It should be a large villa where one person lives mainly. position in the academy.

When entering the gate, seeing the solemn and atmospheric decoration inside, there is a palace-like atmosphere, which makes Hina think of the new home where she stayed for several months before.

Walking to the small green platform specially vacated on the second floor, the lady was reading an unknown book on a wicker chair.

Jenny walked out respectfully, and said softly, "Ma'am, Hina has brought it."

Mrs. Farrell turned her head and saw Hina, nodded with a smile, put the study on the table, and motioned for Hina to sit on the chair beside her.

"Xina, you are here, sit down."

Mrs. Farrell's voice was gentle and steady, and she felt like the type that was easy to get close to, but Hina still sat down a little restrained.

"Jenny, it's nothing for you here, go and rest, I have something to talk to Hina alone."

Jenny nodded, and replied respectfully: "Yes, madam."

Then leave slowly.

Mrs. Farrell personally made a cup of black tea for Xina, walked over, and then asked gently: "Xina, you have been here for almost three months, how are you doing here?"

"Thank you for your concern, madam. I had a very happy life in the academy."

"Really, just have a good time," Madam nodded.

"I have liked you since the first day I saw you. You still look pretty in a skirt now, more like a girl. No wonder your father hid you like a baby."

The lady smiled and continued: "It's not a big deal to find you here, I just want to chat with you. Tell me about the situation in your hometown first. I want to know what kind of landscape can grow such a pure girl. Children should be pure, it is rare to comment on people, but you really make people feel this way."

This question in this family is more difficult for Hina. After all, she has never been to the pre-set background city, and the old man has never discussed it with herself. He said that if someone asks her to make it up, he will never problematic.

But the problem is, there is something wrong with her. Hina sighed inwardly. Has her identity been suspected?If someone really knows the situation in that place, they will probably be dressed up if they make it up, but just deal with it first.

"Well, my hometown is far away from here. Are you from the city? In fact, my father and I mostly live in a house in the country. My father is a scholar and prefers a quiet environment, and he often travels far away, even for several months. will come back."

"Oh, that's no wonder. I was surprised at your father's erudition. He was an excellent scholar. By the way, what about your mother? She must be a beautiful woman, too."

Hina shook her head: "My mother was gone when I was very young, and I have no impression of her at all."

"Oh? I'm so sorry, I didn't mean it."

"It's nothing, ma'am, you don't have to worry about it," Hina shrugged.

"But no matter what, she must be proud of having a daughter like you," Mrs. Farrell stood up from the wicker chair, walked to the fence, and looked towards the distant scenery.

"Actually, I called you here this time because I have a question to ask you. Based on your performance during this period, I found that you are very talented. Although you started a bit late, you should be able to catch up with others if you work hard. And I I also like you a child, and I want to accept you as one of my full-time students, I wonder if you would like to?"

"Your student?" Hina was a little surprised, she didn't expect Madam to make such a request.She raised her eyes and took another careful look at Mrs. Farrell.

Mrs. Farrell ignored Hina's hesitation and asked casually: "If you are worried about my ability. I can declare in advance that I am now a late-stage mage, although I am not as good as those mages. Strength, but it can still give you some pointers on the way you can go now. Jenny is brought out, and you may see her ability in the academy soon. Although she is very good, I always feel that maybe you are more talented than her .”

Unexpectedly, Madam would give such an evaluation, Xi Na didn't react for a while, but just replied with a word of praise.To be honest, the girl in green clothes named Jenny is very strong, and Hina really admires it.

Of course, it is only admiration, she is also a very strong person, this admiration is only due to the mentality that she is not as strong as before.

But this also made Hina a little apprehensive. She didn't think that this lady just praised her casually. Where did her inexplicable confidence come from?This also reminded her of the old man's evaluation of this lady at that time, this woman is not simple.The person who can make the old man boast that it is not easy should indeed be very important, and both of them are late-stage mages in terms of strength, and the old man is obviously a few years older in age, although he yells that he may transcend to the limit at any time. Magister.

However, the old man just said that it was not easy, and he didn't say how dangerous this woman was, or how it might be detrimental to him.Besides, since I became obsessed with the poems and scripts that Irene taught me, there is a saying that she agrees with, it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree...

After just a while, Hina stood up and bowed to Madam.

"Madam, I would like to be your student."

Mrs. Farrell was a little surprised that Hina made a decision so quickly, and simply took out a key from her coat and handed it up.

"Welcome, Xina, here is the key here. I still have a small room here. Although I know that you are more used to living there, you can come and live here for a few days if you like. In this big house I usually live with Jenny, it’s so deserted. If you have any questions, you can come to me. Of course, if I’m not here, you can also ask Jenny for advice. Now that she is your senior sister, she will take care of you. .”

Hina nodded.
