Blooming Tower of the West Wind

Theron nodded hesitantly, greatly relieved to feel Hipper leading her back.Hipper wanted to laugh when he heard that, but he just twitched the corner of his mouth lightly.As long as she can remember, she has never slept with anyone else. Her mother would read story books by her bed, but she would not fall asleep with her arms around her.But the experience this afternoon made her feel that being in close contact with humans might not be a particularly scary thing.

After entering the room, her water leader followed up from behind, holding the quilt from the guest room downstairs.After Hipper helped Theron change her nightgown, she arranged her to sleep on the sofa beside the bed, but at night Theron squeezed beside her.The archmage immediately woke up because of the extra person next to him, but Theron was startled, and his body got up stiffly.

Hipper rubbed her eyes, looked up at the bed in front of her nightgown and asked, "What's wrong?"

The little girl stood alternately with her arms around her shoulders, her body was shaking constantly, "...cold."

Hipper had no choice but to say: "Tomorrow I will add the quilt for you, but you have to sleep quietly and don't move around." She lifted the quilt from a corner and wrapped Theron in it. Considering that she felt cold, she wrapped herself The part of sleeping warm was given to her.Theron lay down flattered, eyes tightly shut, arms and legs erect.

Because of heavy mental work, Hipper's sleep quality has never been low, but she was suddenly woken up, and she couldn't fall asleep for a while.

The archmage is still very persistent about the boundaries of her life. She turned her head and glanced at Theron, planning to declare her habits to her tomorrow morning, but seeing Theron curled up in a ball after falling asleep, she felt a little bit I can't bear it.

She felt that she could not live such a life. She was displaced and lived in fear every day.She didn't have a lot of suffering in her life, so she always has respect for those who successfully survived the suffering.

Fortunately, she didn't stay awake for long, and fell asleep again. In the morning, she found a new towel and toothbrush for Theron, and allowed her to use her own bathroom, and then emphasized to her the importance of brushing her teeth and washing her face. Importance, and finally said: "I... don't particularly like to have physical contact with others, you can't..." When she said this, Theron's twinkling eyes had greatly disturbed her, and she went on to say that the archmage endured Faced with this pressure, he gritted his teeth and said, "You can't just climb onto my bed, it's impolite, okay? You should go back to the guest room to sleep tonight. Considering it's not very warm in the tower, I'll help you add a quilt .”

After speaking, she was discouraged and felt that she was too strict and spoke too fast, but she didn't have the courage to bear the hopeful eyes of a child.

"Politeness...okay." She lowered her head sadly, but still agreed.Hipper is very fortunate that Theron has a very good mother, she really taught the children too well.

We must know that reasoning is often a very strenuous thing.

Hippo touched Theron's head apologetically. The black hair had a completely different feel and was very hard to the touch, but she herself was completely different. The platinum-blond hair seemed weightless, as thin as a bird's. Nascent fluff.

"Virgil is leaving, I have to see him off, he is my friend, you don't have to come, I will let Hector stay with you upstairs."

However, Theron carefully pinched the corner of her robe, and she had no choice but to drag Theron into the living room.

The breakfast is very rich, oatmeal bread baked in flames, a sausage, half a cherry tomato, creamy egg, a few slices of bacon, a spoonful of beans in tomato sauce, a grilled shiitake mushroom, and finally half a cup of milk.

Very standard "researcher breakfast", "I like this way of eating, enough to provide energy for the whole morning," Virgil raised his glass and saluted the archmage at the other end of the table.

"Of course, I like it too. I hope your trip goes well. Have you checked your luggage?"

"Yes, I've already taken it downstairs, it seems that you are very good at taking care of children. Hey, little beast, Uncle Virgil is leaving, no one is scaring you~~~~"

"Virgil, you're even scarier like this."

Virgil coughed twice, concentrating on destroying what was on the plate.Now the genius outside is dim, and he needs to go a long way before the sun rises above his head to reach a place in the middle of the desert called "Stone Fort" - a war relic - to hide from the scorching sun at noon, so he eats well. Very fast.

After the meal, Hipper took Theron and the butler downstairs to see Virgil off, and Tius followed, but because he couldn't walk fast, he was carried downstairs by Theron.

"Don't you think it's heavy?" Hipper performed the levitation technique on Tius. To be honest, even if it is thin, it still weighs more than 50 pounds. It is too difficult for the child to hold it.

Virgil put his own bow on his back, and his luggage was hung on the back of the pegasus. He jumped on the horse, walked into the magic circle, and waved his hand from outside the wind wall.Cheerful whistles came from under his heavy veil, and he touched Pegasus, as if talking to himself or to Pegasus: "Look at her, when we first walked from here, she was behind her back. There's only one water lord."

The storm went away with Virgil, but Aymecortes could not return to calm.Although the outside is already calm in the usual sense, the tower is unusually bustling.

Who's to say otherwise - Hipper is no longer the only human in the desert, Theron, a child (Hipper can't judge) from about six to nine years old, broke into her life in a form she didn't expect .

This challenge starts at night.As usual, the archmage stepped on the footstool with bare feet to read the newly bought (however, it took more than a year to start reading) Dragon War Chronicle.Hipper leaned her head back on the soft sofa very relaxed, and the book in front of her was suspended in the air like a butterfly, flapping its wings slightly.

The powerful water lord is willing to be a nanny, and is now playing chess with Theron in a light pink apron.Out of the corner of her eye, Theron took over the ball of water, and she set up a ripple early, lest the droplets from the explosion wet the precious book.

Earlier—to be precise, after breakfast, Hipper took Theron to visit his laboratory, and accompanied by her onlookers, set up the experimental equipment that had arrived for a while but had no time to assemble. , and explained to her the principle of the instrument - but obviously it didn't work.

Although Theron can speak a lot of obscure words, just like children understand the world, most children at this age only have perceptual and one-sided cognition, and have no systematic knowledge, so although Theron can speak some obscure and profound Seti slang, but she has almost no knowledge of magic items.
