Surprised me into a goddess of light

On the second day of the Umbrella School Festival, I took a few long-lost potion making classes. There were not many classes, and school was declared over at four o'clock in the afternoon.
I returned to the Academy of Magic and got off at the magic cable platform in the South District. Just as I was walking towards the dormitory, light rain suddenly fell from the sky.
The cold wind blew up with a whimper, and the rain gradually became denser. Amid the sound of dripping rain, one by one students hurried to hide from the rain.
I also quickened my pace. After all, I didn't bring an umbrella when I went out. It would be bad to be drenched in water.
However, the torrential rain waited for no one. Before I had taken two steps, the torrential rain poured in. I could only quickly hide in a nearby alley.
"Here, I seem to have been here..."
Looking at the layout of the shops on both sides of the alleyway, I feel a little familiar.
Along the eaves rain curtain, I turned a corner on the stone path, only to find that this is exactly the alley of the Night Tavern that President Lin brought me to last semester.
"It's been a long time since I went to the tavern to read, let's stop by."
I said something to myself, and then deftly turned around and came to the door of a remote tavern.
On the black plaque of the tavern were written the four characters "Dark Night Tavern". A pair of black wind chimes in front of the door kept shaking in the wind and rain, echoing the cold sound of jingling and jingling, which was crisp and sweet.
bang~
I opened the door and entered.
Although it was during business hours, due to the rain and the remote location, there were not many customers in the tavern. Less than half of the dozen or so tables scattered here and there were seated, and a few of them were obviously Hiding from the rain like me.
The faint aroma of alcohol and coffee filled every corner of the hall, and I closed the wooden door casually to block out the crackling sound of wind and rain.
The world was silent for a moment, which made me feel a lot more peaceful.
A clear voice sounded like a wind chime in front of the door: "Long time no see, Miss Eve."
At the bar, the young bartender with burgundy curly hair put down the shaker in his hand and greeted me with a smile. Beside him, a black cat was playing a game of scratching its tail boredly.
It's Heinrich.
He was still as unkempt as the first time I saw him, with messy wine red curly hair like weeds, and oversized black-rimmed glasses covering most of his face, showing a decadent state of no energy.
But just by observing the delicate chin curve and the sea-blue eyes looming under the frame, I can deduce that his appearance is very handsome, and with a little care, he is definitely an amazing handsome boy.
I nodded slightly: "Long time no see, Heinrich."
The beautiful boy with red hair and blue eyes smiled and asked, "Would you like something to drink?"
"Anything but wine...just the same."
I randomly found an empty table and sat down, took a few magic books from the black bookshelf next to it, and opened them to read.
Just as I was immersed in the book, I suddenly heard a clear female voice from the table next to me.
"Guest, your Xibei Lake kiss is ready."
I regained my senses from the book and turned my head to look, only to find that besides the resident Heinrich and the black cat, there was a new employee in the tavern.
A young lady with curly green hair, green eyes, and good looks.
She was wearing a black and white clerk uniform, holding a black wine glass tray, and was serving wine to the guests, with perfect etiquette.
Although she was dressed as a waiter and was doing the work of a waiter, judging from her temperament, this young lady didn't look like a waiter at all. Instead, she looked like a well-off noble girl. Many people in the tavern were secretly looking at her.
Are you a student who comes to work and experience life?
I also took a few more glances at the beautiful young lady, and noticed those green eyes that were as beautiful as clear water. I had a feeling of déjà vu for some reason, as if I had seen it somewhere before, but I couldn't grasp the key points of the memory.
The girl frowned when she noticed my gaze, turned around and returned to the bar.
She seemed a little unhappy, did she not like others looking at her?
"Miss Eve, your latte is also good~"
Just when I was wondering, the bartender Heinrich had already sat across from me and put a cup of cute milk coffee in front of me.
I picked up the mixer on the table and stirred the latte milk froth on the top of the cup, still staring at the girl, and asked, "Is that the new waiter in your tavern?"
Heinrich followed my gaze and glanced: "New waiter? You mean Vieruodis, right?"
"Vieruodis?"
The name is also somewhat familiar.
Heinrich nodded: "Vieruodis is indeed a newcomer, but...actually she's not very new. She came to work in the tavern long before the winter vacation."
"Then why haven't I seen her?"
Heinrich's eyes were a bit resentful: "Because Miss Eve hasn't visited the tavern since the winter vacation."
That's right, Xiao Ye and I went to the Forest of Fairies when the last semester was on vacation. Since returning to school this semester, it's the first time I've been here.
I picked up the steaming hot coffee and said, "I've been a little busy recently, I seldom read, so I seldom come here."
The Night Tavern is usually very quiet and has a very comfortable atmosphere. It also collects many excellent books from the boss. For me, it is a very suitable place for reading and studying.
Unfortunately, I haven't been studying much this semester.
Heinrich smiled, teasingly said: "It is indeed very busy, Miss Eve is busy dating Miss Shizayoi."
What happened with Xiao Ye last night spread throughout the academy, and Heinrich, a well-informed guy, knew it was normal.
I didn't even think about hiding it, so I nodded generously and said, "Yeah, I've been so busy falling in love with Xiao Ye that I didn't even have time to come to your house for coffee."
"Wow~"
Heinrich exaggeratedly covered his chest, winked and said, "I feel like my heart is going to break when you say it so directly. If your fans hear such an answer, they will probably be more sad than me."
"That should not be the case. Even if it is, it has nothing to do with me."
I took a sip of the coffee, feeling the familiar mellow aroma blooming in my taste buds, and squinted my eyes with satisfaction.
"Heinrich, your craftsmanship is really good. This cup of coffee is neither sweet nor greasy, and has a refreshing aroma. I miss it after not drinking it for a while."
"Of course, after all, I adjusted it myself."
Heinrich said with a smile, then sighed and shook his head: "It's a pity that you don't want to drink, otherwise you can experience the real fun."
"I don't think there is any fun in drinking. Except for the taste, there is no difference between all alcohols. They are all ethanol."
I took a sip of coffee and continued: "What you call fun is nothing more than using wine to stimulate the body and stimulate the spirit. This kind of thing can also be done with magic."
"That's different!"
Hearing the topic of wine, Heinrich came alive: "Alcohol is much more interesting than magic, especially for a real bartender."
He sat up slightly and said seriously: "Wine has two great pleasures. The first is the taste, tender, hot, warm, cold, bitter or sweet, just like women of different styles. The wine is bland and tasteless, and the best wine has mixed feelings. Magic can’t do so many feelings. The second is drunkenness. There is a big difference after being drunk, even a spiritual magister can't control so many details..."
"Okay, okay, stop!"
It has become a fact that this body cannot drink alcohol. No matter how good Heinrich said, I am not very interested. After all, if you don’t drink half a cup, it will be broken directly, and you still feel the fun of a ghost?
I knocked on the table: "Since the wine is so interesting, why don't you have time to chat with me when you're not busy making drinks for the guests?"
Heinrich leaned on the back of the chair, spread his hands and said, "Isn't there a new employee here? Make a cup of coffee and serve some wine. She can do this simple job. I don't need to do it myself."
I asked, "Make coffee? Don't you mix the coffee and wine in the tavern yourself?"
"It used to be, but now with Vieruodis, after some training from me, she has been able to do most of the work of bartending and coffee serving, except for horizontal dishes, but she is much more popular than me ..."
Heinrich pointed to the girl at the bar counter who was pouring the bagged coffee powder into a cup: "Besides, the instant coffee tastes pretty good."
I said helplessly: "Your service is a bit casual. Customers don't come to the coffee shop to drink instant food. What's the difference between that and going to the store to buy it?"
Heinrich said indifferently: "It doesn't matter, what matters is that I am more relaxed now, and only serve some key customers, such as you, Miss Eve."
"And as you can see, my business here is a bit cold, and the boss won't care if I chat with you."
I snorted softly: "It's not just a little indifferent, it's like no one cares about it. I don't know what your boss thinks. Such a good tavern can obviously be run very well. How could you find someone like you who has no pursuit to be in charge of the business? I guess I can’t make ends meet every day.”
Heinrich curled his lips: "Boss, she is not a layman looking for gold coins and magic crystals. She doesn't need to use taverns to make money, and I also prefer a leisurely job. It would be bad if the business is booming one day."
"Speaking of which, Ms. Eve came here today just to hide from the rain. If you're in a hurry, after drinking your coffee, you can get the spare umbrella from the store first, or you can return it."
"Thanks, but you don't need an umbrella. I'm not here just to hide from the rain."
Heinrich raised his eyebrows in doubt: "Oh?"
I smiled, looked around at the scattered guests in the tavern, and said, "Some of the people hiding here are waiting for the rain to stop, while others are just waiting for umbrellas. I belong to the latter now."
As soon as the words fell, a cold voice came from outside the door: "Eve, are you here?"
Then, the door of the tavern was pushed open from the outside, and a tall black-haired girl was standing at the door holding an umbrella.
I met her eyes, she put the umbrella outside the door, stepped across the threshold of the tavern, and walked towards me.
Izayo came to my table, his bright red eyes glanced over Heinrich who was sitting opposite me, and his heart felt cold.
Heinrich quickly got up and let go of his seat: "You are the famous Miss Sixteen Nights, please sit down."
Seeing that he was still on the right track, Shiliuye withdrew his sharp eyes and said, "Is he famous?"
Heinrich smiled and said: "The person who can catch the number one goddess of the academy is of course very famous."
I glared at him: "What do you mean? Xiao Ye is already very famous."
Izayo nodded knowingly, quite satisfied with his answer.
She sat down on the chair, looked at me and said, "Eve, remember to contact me without an umbrella in the future. If I didn't send you a message this time, are you planning to go back by yourself?"
"It's all right, and you have to be busy practicing, I don't want to trouble you."
I raised my remaining half cup of coffee and looked at her with a smile: "The coffee in this tavern is not bad, would you like a cup, Xiaoye?"
"Half a cup will do."
Izayoi shook his head, took the cup from my hand, and drank it down in one gulp.

Wish "Thanks for the hospitality, Heinrich, let's go first."
"Walk slowly, welcome next time."
After coffee, I said goodbye to Heinrich, then hid under Saya's open umbrella and walked into the rain with her.
Heinrich stood at the door of the tavern, smiled and watched the two go away until they disappeared completely under the rain.
"so good."
He sighed, turned and pushed open the wooden door, and was about to enter the tavern when a black cat came out from the crack of the door.
"Mao Yezi, it's raining so much, what are you doing out here?"
Heinrich was a little strange. The black cat of the boss hated rainy days very much, and was usually lazy and seldom went out. Why did he take the initiative to run outside today?
The black cat ignored him. It walked gracefully on the stone steps, looked in the direction of the rain curtain, and said in the common language of the mainland, "They left meow?"
"Yeah, it's really ruthless that you didn't come to take care of my business for so long and left after only a few minutes."
Heinrich made a joke, beckoned to the black cat, and signaled it to enter the house.
The black cat still ignored him, it turned its head and said in a surprised tone, "You really let them go meow?"
Heinrich smiled and said, "What do you mean let go? I can't do anything if they want to leave. Can I still eat them?"
"If you don't eat all of it, a small bite is fine too, meow."
The black cat licked its paw: "Since you came back last time, you have been telling me that Eve's taste is very fragrant, and you have been talking about it for two months, I thought you would take the opportunity to add some dry food."
Its cat had a very human mocking expression on its face: "What's the matter, Xiaoduozi, why did you coward meow?"
Hearing the name 'Duo', the smile on Heinrich's face slowly disappeared.
His expression was calm, his appearance was still unkempt, but his eyes became indifferent in an instant, and his temperament also changed drastically at this instant.
A solid scarlet pressure flashed in front of the tavern door, the air suddenly froze, and the boundless rain stagnated for a moment.
It was as if the will of a supreme emperor had awakened in him, such as Alexander the Great, the most prestigious emperor among the human race, and the supreme elf queen among the elf empires. Even compared to these two kings, Heinrich's The temperament is even colder and more dangerous.
If there were ordinary people here, they would probably kneel down uncontrollably, trembling all over, and worshiping in fear and shame.
Heinrich raised his hand gracefully, and adjusted his oversized black-rimmed glasses to cover up the flashing red light in his eyes.
His voice was as sweet as a wind chime, and he said lightly: "Mao Yezi, do you misunderstand me a little bit, no matter how hungry I am, I won't persecute two underage girls, right?"
The black cat snorted arrogantly, raised its head and said, "That's not necessarily meow, I wouldn't worry if you have enough in stock, but now I'm almost finished meow, I'm afraid you will ask me for it Dry food meow."
Heinrich patted his head suddenly: "That's right, Kitty Night, you reminded me, I almost forgot, in fact, there is no need to find those owners of perfect physique, the amount is very small and very troublesome , Maybe it was discovered by that old man Xavier."
