I, the Heir of Heroes

However, when he noticed that the old man had finished his conversation and was about to leave, he asked the question he wanted to ask the most.

"Old man, the one who agreed to their request not to intervene is the Jiudao family or you..."

"...Now Guangxuan is in charge of the Jiudao family, and of course I can only represent myself."

—Ah, indeed, what a stupid question!

It's just that who the stupid people are is debatable.

No trick can hide Galo's eyes, and his extraordinary insight can make him instantly understand the truth of everything.For the old man of Nine Islands, he has already received clear information, no matter how hard he tries, it is impossible to change the will of this huge system.It might as well be the next best thing to retain enough vitality to provide support at critical moments.

The Jiudao family is indispensable, at least in his opinion, this power will play a vital role at some point in the future.

At an octogenarian age, he no longer cared much about the so-called face.

The back of the hand behind his back has his own persistence. Although the vigorous old tree is hollow, the weather-beaten branches can also serve as the last shelter.

Jia Luo could understand, so he didn't make any persuasion.

"Guangxuan, what do you think?"

Slowly whispering, Jia Luo looked towards the corner of the indoor staircase.

The slender body like a nobleman stepped out of the shadows.

"I agree with Grandpa's idea. If you really have to make a decision in the future, the Jiudao family will stand by your side."

"You should be clear about the consequences. Now, as the head of the family, you need to consider the gains and losses."

“Isn’t it wonderful to be part of an epic to witness the end of one era and the rise of another?”

Leaning against the wall, Guangxuan's calm tone cannot be refuted.

"Also, in a real sense, I no longer belong to the human species. Everything I do now is the meaning of my existence. If I can't even carry out my own will, then I have nothing to do with those scum who hide everywhere. What's the difference. Grandpa and I are not going to interfere with your thoughts and decisions, Galo, so please tolerate our willfulness in this regard. Instead of trying to persuade us, why not think about future countermeasures... I will deal with it first You just sent me the information, and then you can arrange it yourself."

Without giving him a chance, Guangxuan, who had directly expressed his thoughts, turned around decisively and went upstairs to his room, leaving Jia Luo alone on the sofa with his bangs hanging down, silent.

The sound of footsteps touching the ground faded away, Jia Luo raised his forehead and stared at the full moon beyond the glass curtain wall.

"Is it the change of the times? We - are all idiots!"

The murmur accompanied by the ticking pendulum echoed in the empty living room.

------------

Emmm, it's uncomfortable, I'm going to school tomorrow!However, soon, all the foreshadowing can finally come to an end! ! !

Chapter 210 Eight Urban Legends

The hour hand of the clock moved past the top, pushing back the date on the calendar for three days, and the [National Magic Essay Contest for High School Students] held in Yokohama officially kicked off.But even so, the urban area does not have any special atmosphere.For ordinary students in magic high schools, essay contests are a special activity, which can spare a lot of leisure time for their busy and boring study life.And for the students selected to represent, this could be an important competition for the future.

The practice is still maintained, before the official competition is over, the courses of each class in the school are still self-study.Whether it is a first-year student or a second-year student, students who have nothing to do with the essay competition stay in the classroom.The boring time that lasted for several days made their listlessness at the moment form a sharp contrast with the enthusiasm they used to have.

But even so, it wouldn't be this noisy during normal classes.There are occasional explosions in the laboratory, so the description of [the campus is always silent] is an exaggerated and false propaganda.

No matter how big the usual commotion is, the students will observe a little order, but the noise at this time comes from countless trucks passing between the school gate and the laboratory.

Whether it is for the smooth progress of the competition or to protect the core technology, the competition equipment that spends a lot of time is worthy of the sponsor's use of resources to escort.

Gently clicking on the upper right corner of the desktop terminal, turning off all the news browsed, Jia Luo began to tidy up the desk helplessly.The classroom has lost the supervision of the teacher, and any disturbance caused by disturbance is justifiable.Such a noisy environment is not convenient for Jia Luo to enjoy a quiet study atmosphere.

However, the more lively the place, the more exaggerated and rapid the flow of information—at least, this is extremely correct in Jia Luo's view.

Not far behind, groups of girls were gathering around a table, chatting with smiles, and a topic they talked about unexpectedly aroused Jia Luo's interest.

The tidying movements slowed down, and Jia Luo listened with slightly raised eyebrows.

——It wasn't the first time he noticed the strange and confused atmosphere among these people recently.

"Have you heard of it? The urban legend that just appeared recently..."

—An urban legend?

It seems that it is not related to all the students, but this kind of similar news has spread to the entire campus in an instant accompanied by everyone's curiosity.

"Hey~ Is there a new one? I haven't learned about these things for a long time!"

"This time it's different! The specific place where it appeared is our school!"

"real!?"

"Hmm! I also know it from others, saying [Every night, there will always be a dark figure wandering around the campus, but its true identity is still unknown!]..."

"In the evening... We would have finished school long ago at that time, who would stay until that time! Maybe I was afraid and misunderstood!"

"It's just..."

Perhaps for them, the content of the topic is secondary.Compared with this kind of supernatural news that has lost its freshness, they are more willing to chat about things that can resonate.

From the reflection on the desktop screen, Jia Luo noticed the slight smile that he inadvertently evoked during the "overhearing", and then turned to show a relieved expression and stood up to leave.

He is not so vulgar yet, at this time he can only shirk the responsibility to his superhuman perception ability.

Jia Luo who left the classroom silently did not attract anyone's attention. As a member of the competition escort team, he carried a certificate to enter and exit the escort area at will.

However, with the arrangement and supervision of Mayumi and Suzune's group, there must be no problems.And his so-called assistance is just to kill time.

According to predictions, there should be transport vehicles parked in front of the machine research laboratory where the competition paper props are placed, but now it is empty.On the clean asphalt road, you can faintly see the traces of the wheels running over, and scattered small garbage around it seems to be left over from the end of the delivery.
