After retiring, I became Loli’s magic mentor

Arriving at Alcott College, Ryan found that the stables were already crowded, and many horses were even tied outside the stables. Many guards were walking among the horses to look after the horses.

For today's autumn assessment, Fina transferred many of the knight guards she could call to Alcott College.

And these horses are naturally those nobles who accompanied their daughters for the assessment.

"Ryan, why don't we park the horses outside? The stables should be full by this time."

Nernelli, who got off the horse and waited for Ryan to place the horse, saw that Ryan was still riding the horse into the stable, and couldn't help but remind her.

Ryan smiled mysteriously at Nunnelli: "Don't worry, I have a place to park."

After saying that, Ryan rode into the stable.

Looking at the place where he usually parked his horses, he saw, as expected, that his "exclusive horse seat" was still empty.

Even though Alcott College is full of people like Earls and Marquises who are usually very arrogant, in fact, these people are all seasoned. Even Duke Fina, who values ​​​​so much, has even set up a system for him. An exclusive horse position, naturally no one will touch this bad luck.

After parking the horse, Ryan walked out of the stable, took the little hand of Nenelli, who looked slightly astonished, and walked towards the teaching building.

The first item in the autumn assessment is the liberal arts written test. At the same time, this is also the only written test in the autumn assessment.

Walking into the classroom under Ryan's watch, Nunnally sat down in her seat, waiting for the exam to begin.

Regarding the written examination of arts and science subjects, Ninelli is still very confident. Before she could not activate her magic power, her scores in arts and science subjects were among the best in the entire academy.

Soon, the assessment began, and test papers were distributed one by one.

After getting the test paper, the first thing Nenelli did was to scan it roughly.

At this moment, Ninelli suddenly found that her mind was very clear and her thinking became very sharp and clear.

Those questions that I had not memorized very well before seemed to have been memorized several times by me at this moment. With just one glance, the originally vague answers jumped clearly into my mind.

At this moment, Ninelli remembered the breakfast that Ryan had made for her in the morning. At that time, Ryan said that today's breakfast had a refreshing effect and could make her face the exam in the best condition.

Thinking of Ryan's gentle smile, Ninelli's face turned slightly red, and at the same time she picked up a pen and started writing quickly on the test paper.

Outside the classroom, in order not to disturb the students taking the exam, all the escorts came outside the teaching building.

The group of nobles had no temper, and soon got together in twos and threes, chatting all over the place.

Ryan was pacing back and forth outside the examination room. Although Ryan believed that there would be no problem with Ninelli, he couldn't help but feel worried in his heart.

At this moment, Ryan finally understood the mood of those parents who were waiting for their children to walk out of the examination room.

"That...Mr. Lane?"

At this time, a voice came, and Ryan turned his head and saw Sajeel standing beside him with her hands behind her back, her cheeks a little red.

She obviously looked like a heroic female beastman, but at this time, Sajiriel was acting very reserved and nervous.

"Li'er, what's the matter?"

Seeing Sajili'er, Ryan stopped pacing and said with a smile: "The biscuits you made yesterday were delicious. Thank you for the treat."

"You...just like it."

Sajilil hesitated for a moment, then stretched out the hand she was carrying on her back, holding a small cloth bag in her hand:

"These are vegetarian meatballs made by me. I hope you don't dislike them."

"Uh... thanks a lot."

In fact, Ryan wanted to refuse. After all, there was too much to accept, but he had to accept the favor of others.

But looking at Sajili's hopeful eyes, Ryan still took the bag, and then said:

"Actually, you never owed me anything from the beginning to the end, so you wouldn't have reached this point."

Hearing this, Sajili'er scratched the back of her head, the two orange cat ears on her head drooped, and said a little embarrassedly:

"Actually... the fact that I brought you something has nothing to do with that matter. I actually... want to make friends with Mr. Lane."

"Be friends with me?"

Ryan looked confused.

From the performance of Sajili'er, Ryan can see that Sagili's making friends is not "making friends" based on interests like the nobles, but she wants to make friends in the true sense.

It is precisely because of this that Ryan becomes even more confused. It seems that I didn't do anything, right?

This was the first time in Ryan's life that someone said to him sincerely, "I want to make friends."

"Well... maybe in your opinion, what I say seems a bit naive? But I really want to be friends with you."

Sajeel smiled cautiously and said: "Because the way you treat orcs is different from other human races, this is the first time since I came to the Hedley Empire that I have not been viewed through colored glasses."

After hearing this, Ryan raised his head and glanced around, and found that the nobles were indeed far away from here, as if they were avoiding Sajili'er.

"Ah... I'm here, maybe I'm in your way? I'm really sorry. I really don't know how to get along with others, so I can only give you some snacks made by myself every day, Mr. Lane. That... I'll wait. Leave as soon as possible."

"..."

Ryan looked silently at Sajeel, who suddenly looked apologetic.

From the confrontation with the earl that day, Ryan could see that Saguire was arrogant, and not ordinary arrogant.

But when she arrived at the Hedley Empire, in order to bear the heavy burden on her shoulders, Sajeel had to suppress her arrogance and became like this now, walking on thin ice.

"...Actually, you don't need to use honorifics when communicating with me."

Just as Sajeel turned around with some disappointment and was about to leave, Ryan suddenly spoke.

Hearing Ryan's voice, Sajeel was slightly startled and turned around slowly.

Seeing Ryan opening the bag, he picked up a vegetarian meatball and threw it into his mouth. While chewing, he said:

"Actually, I don't like people always calling me you. It's so awkward. Also, the vegetarian meatballs you made today are pretty good."

Seeing this, Sajeel's eyes lit up slightly, and her droopy cat ears stood up again:

"Mr. Lane..."

"Just call me Ryan. We are already friends, but you still call me sir?"

After swallowing the vegetarian meatballs, Ryan smiled faintly:

"Just stay by my side. Don't worry about those people. They have nothing to do with me."
