I was expelled from the team and was recruited by the demons?

Due to the family coat of arms of the Duke of Wins's palace outside the carriage, this also made the trip of several people to the royal capital quite smooth, and there were almost no obstacles along the way.

Eli sat in the carriage, and after the carriage arrived in the royal capital, his eyes fell on the window.

Judging from the usual behavior of the residents of the royal capital, no matter what happened to the Duke's Palace, at least this matter has not affected the general public for now.

It's just that Eli is more concerned that Christine is still trembling at this time.

Looking at her appearance, it seemed that she was still immersed in Duke Wins's injuries and could not recover from it.

It is also estimated that this girl has always regarded her father as a role model.

Now Duke Wins is unconscious, and even though she is called "Blade King" by outsiders, she is essentially just a girl who has just turned twenty.

"It's okay, we'll see what happens when we get there.

Eli sighed, remembering that it had been the same in this world.

At that time, he had been in the workplace for many years, and he had seen a lot of girls who were strong on the surface but actually delicate in their minds.

"Hmm—"

Christine shrunk back, but her eyes were still fixed on the outside of the carriage, urging the servant to hurry up.

"Click.

At this moment, there was a sudden crisp pop from Elena's side.

Eli followed the sound and saw that the other party was playing with a delicate orb.

The ball seemed to be a half-finished product, so even the system's identification function could not tell what it was.

"It's... A gadget made is said to prevent Alzheimer's, young master, do you want to try it?"

Elena noticed Eli's somewhat concerned gaze, and after raising her head and smiling at Eli, she took advantage of the situation and handed the ball in her hand to Eli's hand.

"Does this world also have the concept of Alzheimer's..."

Eli gave Elena a puzzled look, and then began to lower her head and tinker with the orb in her hand.

Elena, on the other hand, held her head and looked at Eli's focused face with a smile.

In the past, Eli also liked to tinker with some weird little things, and the concept of preventing Alzheimer's disease was also heard from Eli.

However, Elena was still relatively serious at that time, so she believed whatever Eli said.

It wasn't until later that she learned that Alzheimer's was a thing that couldn't be compared with these witches.

"This thing... It's kind of interesting..."

Eli curiously looked through the small holes in the sphere, and found that there were countless inlays inside.

And in the very center of this ball, there is a delicate miniature copper pillar.

The gameplay of this thing is not complicated, it is nothing more than adjusting each side while ensuring that the copper pillar inside can remain upright, so as to take out the copper pillar inside through the small circular holes connected together.

This thing is a bit like an educational toy in his world.

Thinking of this, Eli also glanced at Elena a helplessly.

Sure enough, researchers of all eras like to tinker with these strange things.

And Elena curled the corners of her mouth, and the young master used to look at her with this kind of slightly disgusted eyes.

It's just that at that time, she always pestered Eli to ask about all kinds of mechanical knowledge.

Eli got impatient, so he looked at her, and then pulled out a toy and sent her away.

Later, when she learned the truth, she was sad for several days, and finally Eli made her a delicate splicing doll to coax her to be good.

Now that I think about it, the young master probably hasn't changed much...

He is the best person in this world to witches, and the only one who dares to dislike them in front of witches.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

Eli said quietly.

"Huh?"

It wasn't until then that Elena came back to her senses, her gaze was so straightforward that Eli had already noticed it, but only then did she speak out to warn her.

"No, it's just... I thought about the time when my teacher taught me to make these things.

Elena smiled, it wasn't a lie...

"Then your teacher is very good, he can teach a student like you, and I have the opportunity to meet him.

Eli raised his hand, and the inlays within the ball gradually aligned as he swayed.

With a crisp sound, the copper pillar inside also fell on his palm.

"Hmm..."

Elena looked at the bronze pillar in Eli's palm, and it was difficult to recover for a long time.

I don't know how many years have passed, but this thing has always been something that only she and Eli can unravel.

And after Eli left, she was the only one who could figure out how to solve this thing.

Now that she saw this scene from Eli's hands, she realized...

Her teacher, the all-powerful King of the Night, has indeed returned.

"What's the fuss, this thing is not difficult, I hurt your self-esteem so quickly.

Eli smiled and threw the ball into Elena's hand, seeing that the other party was still looking at him blankly, Eli thought that he had solved it too quickly and scared Elena.

After all, this thing has some similarities with the educational toys in the original world.

Eli was able to grasp the solution so quickly, and it seemed to him that it was a matter of course.

Elena shook her head, and after slipping the ball into her pocket, she turned her head to look out the window somewhat unnaturally.

She didn't dare to look at Eli again, and if she continued to look, she was afraid that she would not be able to hold back her tears.

I really don't know how Chizuru and Emma endured it...

"Are you alright?" Just

as Elena was stunned, Eli, who noticed that something was not quite right with her, leaned over and looked at her.

Only then did he realize that Elena's eyes were red.

No...... I'm just playing with a toy, how can I make a witch cry...

"It's okay..."

Elena looked at Eli's close face, and her whole body suddenly froze in place.

Eli, on the other hand, took a handkerchief and began to wipe the tears from her eyes.

"I don't know what you're thinking, but I think... Since you've made these little things, I think your heart should... I hope someone can unravel them.

Eli sat next to Elena, and he didn't know why Elena had suddenly become like this.

Elena looked at Eli silently, this time for a long, long time, as if she wanted to engrave the appearance of the young man in front of her deeply.

"I don't have anything on my face,"

Eli asked, rubbing his cheek against his shoulder,

a little confused.

"Poof..."

, and Elena laughed out loud at his actions, and Eli was the only one in the world who could react like this.

Then she put her hands on Eli's cheeks, forcing him to look her in the eye.

"How... What's wrong—"

Eli tried to look away a little unnaturally, but Elena's head kept bobbing with his gaze.

"Didn't you say you wanted to see my teacher?"

"Then we agreed that you would have to let me follow you until you met him."

A bright smile rose on Elena's face at this moment.

The halo that poured into the carriage from the window made her pale complexion crystal clear at this moment.

"I didn't mean to drive you away,"

Eli muttered.

"Pull the hook.

Elena smiled and let go of Eli's cheek and gave her little thumb up instead.

The two of them made an agreement, and although it seemed a little strange to Eli, Elena seemed to be happy.

Even the long-lasting look of exhaustion on her face was much less at this moment.

"Here we are, Mr. Eli, Miss Elena.

As the carriage stopped, Christine also stood up and reminded the two in front of her.

They then stepped out of the carriage, and to Eli's surprise, there were no guards stationed at the Duke's Palace.

After all, if Duke Wens was wounded, the Knights of the Holy Wood would have deployed men to protect the safety of the mansion.

"Please, Mr. Eli.

Christine raised her hand, and the door to the mansion slowly opened.

And Elena looked at the empty corridor in front of her, and the smile on her face gradually dissipated.

She now roughly understood why Emma had let her come here in particular.
