I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

silence.

The entire reception room fell into an eerie silence.

…

…

…

A few seconds later, everyone, familiar and unfamiliar, all shouted in unison.

"Clam?"

No one thought that Orange would say such a thing.

This is Aozaki Orange. Even though he betrayed the Aozaki family and failed to become a magician, he is still a magician who has reached the highest peak of modern magic. She can still live well even if she is on the "Seal Designated" list. There are rumors that the "Secret Bureau" has given up on pursuing her.

If such a magician wants to recruit a disciple, countless nobles and nobles will rush to send the child, which is enough to become the biggest event in the magic world in the new century.

Note that they are inner disciples, not ordinary students.

Although Chengzi has admitted a few students now, these students are all "superpowers" and do not have the qualifications to become magicians. Orange is more like a guide to them, guiding them in the direction they are going, and doesn't actually teach much.

This is not the case with inner disciples, who are the inheritors who pass on what a magician has learned throughout his life. They are like the head of a magician's family, the true successor of a martial arts school, and can even be regarded as an adopted son or daughter.

The weight of Cheng Zi’s words was clear to everyone present.

That is why they remain silent.

That's why they were stunned.

"Are you serious?" Qiuye felt that his brain was a little weak, "Are you accepting Yuzuka-senpai as your inner disciple?"

"Do you think I would joke about this kind of thing?" Cheng Zi shrugged, his attitude didn't seem very serious.

"But, why her?"

"Miss Yuzuka seems to be an ordinary person." The outspoken Liz Byfield said, "Ah, it seems inappropriate for me to say this."

"No, Miss Yumizuka...is not an ordinary person." Ziyuan seemed to see something and pointed at May's eyebrows.

"Miss Shion!" Zhiki quickly stretched out his hand and pulled May away from the extension of his fingers, "This is very rude."

"Ah, I'm sorry, because I was curious, so... I'm really sorry." Ziyuan apologized quickly.

"The Alchemist of Atlas is still the same as always, he is easily impulsive when he sees good material."

Hearing Orange's complaint, Shion couldn't help but lower her head.

Qiuye stood up to him and said, "Isn't it the same for you? I still remember the way you looked when you first saw Hanzo."

Chengzi retorted unceremoniously: "If you don't change this bad character, you may not be able to get married in the future."

"I don't want to get married." Qiuye glanced at Shiki secretly and snorted arrogantly.

"That, that..." May said weakly, "I am just an ordinary person, I don't have super powers like you."

"That's because your power is still sleeping and has not been developed." Chengzi explained, "Furthermore, it is not an accident that you are involved in such an incident. Even if no murderer appears, sooner or later you will be involved in other incidents. Mysterious events.”

"mystery?"

"The so-called mystery is simply something that has not been deconstructed. The so-called superpowers and magic are all mysteries. And there is a basic law in the mysterious world - mystery and mystery will attract each other. Do you understand? When you are attracted to Shiki It shows that you are not an ordinary person."

"ah!!!"

May's face turned red instantly. It's not some theory of mysterious mutual attraction, it's simply because of the shyness after having the most secret thoughts in my heart exposed.

The girl unconsciously peeked at the boy next to her, and found that the dull guy was as unaware as ever, and then she breathed a sigh of relief. This scene also made Qiuye begin to regret why he helped her cover up and brought her back.

Chengzi ignored the girl's concerns and continued: "As for your qualifications - Miss Ziyuan, your 'etheric light weaving' has been detected."

"As expected of a 'Grand Rank' puppet master." Ziyuan admitted frankly, "The number of magic circuits exceeds fifty, making it a very outstanding rough stone. In addition, it seems to have some special potential, but because of 'Yi Tai Beam' did not hit accurately, so no further conclusions can be drawn."

"It's the same as my analysis." Orange nodded, looking at May with more and more satisfaction, "Being attracted to Shiki should have something in common with his 'superpower'. As for what it is, Let’s dig into it slowly as a future topic.”

"Well, I haven't agreed to be your disciple in May yet." Zhiki reminded.

"Don't agree?" Chengzi's lips curled up with a mysterious smile, "It doesn't matter. For your sake, Zhiki, I won't force you. However, I have two things to remind you."

"First, mysterious attraction. I have already said that the murderous ghost is not just a coincidence. This time you were lucky and were saved by Zhiki and the others. What about next time? What about next time? Do you want to protect her, Zhiki? lifetime?"

Zhiki opened his mouth but made no promise.

May's face, which had just improved, turned red again.

Qiuye's expression became increasingly grim.

"Second, the reason why mystery is called mystery is that it is unknown. Therefore, the first principle of mystery is concealment, that is, it cannot be known by ordinary people. According to convention, ordinary people who witness the mystery must perform mental operations and block relevant information. Memory. Yuzuka Satsuki, if you have no intention of stepping into the mysterious world, then I can only block your memory tonight. Don’t worry, with my technology, it will not affect other parts of the memory. If you think I If your words are unreliable, you can also ask other people.”

Before May could ask, Liz Byfei and Ziyuan had already given their answers.

"She's right."

"This is basic common sense."

"Yumizuka Satsuki, are you willing to lose the memory of tonight?"

Chengzi folded his hands to support his chin, and the lenses without prescription reflected a ray of light, which dazzled May's eyes.

"Now, tell me the answer."

"I--"

The answer was decided as early as May when he stepped into Tono's house. She wanted to get closer to Zhiki, and wanted to know more about Zhiki. How could she be willing to be an ordinary person like this, and how could she be willing to lose the memory of tonight.

"——I don't want to lose my memory. I promise to be your disciple and learn magic from you."

"It's not magic, it's magic." Chengzi corrected, "There is an essential difference. Zhiki, explain it to May. Not only magic, but also the introduction to mystery will be taught to May by you. After all, you also Consider her senior."

"Senior!" May's eyes lit up.

"Don't forget that I am my 'senior sister'!" Qiuye gritted his teeth in dissatisfaction, "Senior...sister."

Wuyue read her words playfully, and for the first time she felt that there was nothing wrong with learning from Chengzi.

PS: The "sealing designation" has been lifted, but it is impossible to make a public statement on this matter. Both parties can only make it tacit. If it is really made public, where will the dignity of the "Secret Ceremony Bureau" go?

PS2: Suddenly I feel like there are more monsters on Orange's side than on Weber's side.
