Seemingly aware that the haystack was not very clean, she looked a little ashamed, and quickly put her old thin quilt on it.

Seeing this, Xia lightly sighed.

He didn't say anything, but with a very comfortable expression, he sat down without hesitation, and together with the little girl, looked at the dark night sky along the narrow alley.

"By the way, what's your name?"

Shaar suddenly remembered this, tilted his head to look at the little girl in the corner, and said.

"Eileen...Eileen Natalie."

After whispering something, she seemed to think of her parents, her eyes were slightly red.

But there are no tears left.

"A nice name."

Shaar stretched out his hand, gently covered Irene's small head, and slowly stroked along the withered yellow hair.

As if caught off guard by this action, Irene's small body trembled, looked at Shaar with a timid gaze for a while, and then buried her face in her knees.

Although he didn't dare to say it, in this cold night, that big hand conveyed a warm feeling.

"Irene, do you want to see the complete starry sky?"

Hearing this, Irene raised her head, looked up at Shaar, and got his encouraging gaze.

Her heart trembled: "But, but, mother said, the street outside is very dangerous, don't go out casually."

Xia was silent for a while, and then smiled a little: "Then, watch me do a magic trick for you."

After finishing speaking, he gently held Irene's thin wrist, and stretched out the hand wearing the [Vail of Concealment] under the suspicious and dodging eyes of the other party.

With a light grasp, a curtain of shadow was raised.

Seeing this, Irene's big agile eyes widened, as if seeing an incredible scene.

"Big brother, are you... a magician?"

She felt very novel about the scene in front of her, and wanted to reach out to touch the shadow veil, but hesitated.

"That's it."

Xia Ya pursed his lips, and in Irene's soft exclamation, he merged with her into the shadow like water waves.

Irene only felt a blur in front of her eyes, and then her whole body seemed to be submerged in water, falling into a darkness that made people feel peaceful in their hearts.

But it didn't take long for the faint light to return to the eyes.

She blinked, and found that in just a few seconds, the two of them reached the top of the house, and they could see the dilapidated shack in the alley when they lowered their heads.

"Look up?"

Shaar's voice guided earnestly and kindly, and Irene shook her head, then raised her head cautiously.

She saw a vast expanse of starry sky.

The night is like the most simple picture scroll, slowly unfolding, and the light of the stars is like dazzling diamonds, which are accidentally sprinkled on this pure color picture scroll by the gods.

In the very center of the picture scroll hangs a bright and clean moon.

"It's so beautiful." Irene's twinkling eyes trembled slightly, "So, so..."

So I can also look up at the starry sky like this?

She secretly hid the second half of the sentence in her heart.

Silent for a long time.

Both of them were looking up at the boundless and beautiful vast night sky, feeling surprisingly peaceful, each speechless.

"Big brother."

"Ok?"

"Do the stars... have names?"

"Yes, look, the big and shining star closest to the moon is called St. George's Star, which symbolizes His Majesty the first emperor; A star seen, even in the desert, that points the way to a lost traveler; and that..."

"Big brother, is there anyone on the moon?"

"Huh? Why do you ask that?"

"Because I saw a very beautiful big sister dancing on it in that kind of folded skirt."

"Hehe, your imagination is very rich."

"No, it's not imagination, it's reality!"

"Oh, maybe...the goddess of the bright moon?"

"By the way, Irene, did Grandpa Peter not take care of you?"

"No, grandpa is very good to me, gave me bread to eat, and let me live at home, but...but I don't want to trouble him, because my mother said that in this world, everyone You have worked hard, and you can't always cause trouble for others."

Having said that, Eileen's eyes dimmed.

"You have a very good mother." Xia Ya reached out and touched her head, and at the same time thought of his mother, who resolutely stood in front of the group of executioners in order to save her young self, "Of course, I Too."

After that, two people, one big and one small, just sat on the edge of the roof, chatting one after another. Most of the time, it started with Irene's inquiry and ended with Shaar's answer.

The inferiority complex and cowardice in Irene's heart were diluted a lot.

"Big brother......"

At a certain moment, Erin suddenly raised her head.

She took out a small white flower from a somewhat worn pocket, which seemed to be a wild flower picked from the nearby grass.

This kind of wild flower is not pretty and has no fragrance, but it is better than tenacious vitality and can be seen everywhere.

She carefully handed the little white flower to Xia Ya without saying a word.

"Thank you."

Xiaya touched her head, and put the flower into the pocket of her jacket.

The night gradually darkened.

At a certain moment, Xia Ya faintly heard the sound of breathing, looked down and found that the black and thin Irene fell asleep leaning on Xia Ya's arm at some point.

He thought for a while, but didn't wake her up, but kept this posture and looked at the night sky quietly.

In order to prevent her from catching cold, Shaar would secretly release a hot wind spell every time.

His current magic realm is a warlock, and with 14 more attribute points, he can even be promoted to a wizard. The total amount of magic power has increased many times compared to before, but he still only uses those few apprentice magics, such as hot wind. , Fireball, Greasy, Lighting and more.

Easy to learn and doesn't consume much mana.

Silent all night.

It wasn't until the sky in the distance turned pale and there was a noise from the street that Shaar took Irene back to the dilapidated hut without making a sound.

Then, disappeared into the alley.

Chapter 21 Angelica's Persecution

In the early morning, after waking up from the warm blanket, Deidora rubbed her sleepy eyes and straightened her messy long hair.

She slowly got up, sat on the edge of the bed, and stepped on the wooden floor with her bare feet. Because the fire in the fireplace was burning hot, she was only wearing a white corset, which exposed her beautiful body curves. In the air, while stretching his waist, he yawned.

Glancing at the empty place on the other side of the bed, a trace of resentment flashed in Dido La's eyes like "letting her stay alone in the empty room again", then stood up lightly, and walked to the vanity mirror in the bedroom.

The woman in the silver mirror is extremely beautiful, but the face on the right side is slightly red and swollen.

She touched it with her hand, then sighed.

Sure enough, women are hysterical when they fight.

After the quarrel with Nina yesterday, no accident, it finally rose to a physical conflict.

Fortunately, Deidora's strength is not too small. With one against five, all the opponents were defeated.

This was due to Xiaya's unintentional move.

In the past, he tried to improve his strength through meditation and exercise, but finally found that such behaviors would not improve the experience value, so Shaar briefly turned his attention to various potions and magical items.

After trying several times, it still ended up being ineffective in the end. There were extra potions that could enhance physical fitness, and Shaar gave Didora a lot to drink.

The effect is not so abnormal, at least Didora's slender and soft body does not show a trace of strength, and her strength is only slightly stronger than that of the surrounding maids.

Even so, Deidora finally grabbed Nina's hair and forced her to apologize to the young master and wash the dirty clothes again.

"Obviously she is a lady."

Looking at herself in the mirror, Deidora looked a little shy, but when she thought of yesterday's scene, she burst into a "puchi" laugh, full of flair.

But then a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.

Master, where did you go?

Are those rumors... true?

With such thoughts in mind, the maid was lost in thought, and she was absent-minded about doing the housework in the morning.

This kind of cranky thinking continued until noon.

When Didora finished cleaning the room, she checked the time and was about to make lunch for Shaar. At this moment, she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"coming!"

Didora responded, and walked briskly to the door, thinking that Shaar had returned.

But after opening the door, what came into view was a blond girl wearing a rose-colored mage robe, holding her chest with both hands, with a somewhat impatient expression on her face.

Her appearance is bright and charming, not inferior to Didora in the slightest, and her temperament is extremely noble. No need to guess, she knows that she must be the daughter of a great noble family.

As a life maid, Didora, who had a basic understanding of the composition of the school's students, naturally recognized this unkind visitor.

She straightened her posture immediately, bowed deeply, lowered her head and said, "Miss Algeria."

After saying hello, Didora peeked outside the door from the corner of her eye. The corridor was full of people at some point, and even the downstairs seemed to have gathered a lot, most of them came here after hearing the news. Melon masses.

This is also normal, after all, the most beloved eldest daughter of the Grand Duke of Algeria who appeared here is the most talented magic genius in the entire academy.

Seeing the scene in front of her, Didora's heart tightened, and she had some guesses.

Angelica's mid-calf boots were constantly on the ground. She didn't like to wait, but when she saw that it was a maid, her expression became a little gloomy.

Her eyes narrowed slightly, a little less of the kindness in the past, and more of scrutiny and majesty.

After looking up and down at Didora, Angelica slightly parted her red lips and asked coldly, "It was you who hit my servant yesterday?"

It turned out to be because of this incident.

Has Master Lai Xing questioned him?

Deidora looked at Nina, who was standing behind her master with an aggrieved face, and nodded lightly: "Yes, but it wasn't me first..."

"Ten slaps on my mouth, and then I apologize to my servant in front of everyone, it will be assumed that this incident never happened, and I will not hold you accountable."

Angelica didn't even finish listening to the other party's words, so she waved her hand and interrupted Didora, as if she was announcing an established fact, and didn't care what the other party would think.

Afterwards, she turned her eyes to the interior of the apartment, and after searching around, she didn't find the person she was looking for, so she frowned immediately: "Where's your master?"

Dido La took a deep breath, feeling that she couldn't keep up with her thinking, and replied honestly: "The young master went out last night, and he hasn't come back yet."

It turns out that it is likely that they will not come back.

Thinking of the words of her teacher Ms. Meiweisi that night, Angelica suddenly felt that her guess had come true.

If the first heir is confirmed to be dead or missing, then the title will naturally go to the second heir.

It seems that the teacher is bound to win the title of Nia.

Most likely after the incident last time, she obtained more resources, and her status in the Mage Tower and the palace has been improved, and she is ready to further develop her own power, and Naia, who was trained as a successor, naturally became the best choice.

The younger sister is lucky, and the older brother will naturally become unlucky because he made up for her luck, which is fair.

"What are you still standing there for?" Angelica looked at Deidora suspiciously, as if wondering why she didn't clap her hands, and then pointed to the inside of the room, "After apologizing, go to the previous Lord Bring me your letter of conferment."
