Blooming Tower of the West Wind

The archmage let go of his hand, the water polo lost its mana support, and smashed into a puddle of water on the ground.She was always clumsy when she was a child. She used to play like this when she first learned how to use water polo, but she would always fall to the ground after one or two flicks. The water polo just broke.

"Ma'am, you are also good at coaxing children." Hector whispered in Hipper's ear.

"Where is it, I was just inspired by you." The archmage replied very modestly.

It's not like Theron can't miss. Once or twice the water polo is too fast and breaks on the ground, and Hektra will give her a new drop.

The pile of things hadn't been cleaned up until noon, and the archmage stuffed the new water polo that had been prepared to Theron who had just broken one, looked at her happy back, and said to Hektra. "I remember reading a paper saying that 'play' is a preparation for animals to hone their hunting skills..."

"Yes, I probably know where this paper is. Are you looking for it now?"

"No, I just feel that this theory is correct when I observe human infants. If you see similar papers, please pay attention to them. I am very interested in learning more."

"That's hard to say, unless an animal expert like Mr. Virgil wants to write a paper on it."

"Oh, let's give him a good time." She pretended to stab her in the neck, "Theron, aren't you tired from playing?" She beckoned and led her back to the living room.

At lunchtime, Hipper tried to add a little cooked food to Theron's plate (such as hot beans in tomato sauce, because Elvis said that human young children may like sweet and sour tastes), and watched her eat down.

In the afternoon, it was very calm. This wind wall allowed Theron to stay relatively quiet for an afternoon, and Hipper thoroughly packed the laboratory, and the experimental materials—it was time to reveal the answer—were piled up in the laboratory In an inconspicuous hidden door.

The inside has been folded with space magic, so the inside is quite large, so that the light from the only long window cannot fill the entire room, and requires the assistance of artificial light sources.

Before it was time to eat, Hipper looked around and said, "Theron, would you like to play here alone? I will go back to the living room and read a book. It may be boring. I can call Hector Traliu." Come down with you."

"Oh, ma'am." Hipper's gray eyes were cold and menacing, and Hektra said those two words before deciding to shut up.

Theron held the water polo with one hand, and Hipper's robe with the other, while the azure gentleman secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly commented: Humans still tend to stay with their own kind, even if entertainment activities are not less fun.

On the other hand, the water lord couldn't help but miss the archmage when she was young: she was so quiet that it was boring, and giving her a book would allow her to stay quietly for a whole day without any company.I hope the little lady can do the same in the future.

After dinner, Theron was still vigorously playing chess with Hector, while the time leaked from the hourglass one by one. Hipper secretly observed that this little beast still had a normal human rhythm.

She would feel sleepy at about nine o'clock in the evening, but she would not go to sleep.While imagining Theron's life in the underground cave, Hipper felt unimaginable: how did she live alone for three boring years because she loves to play so much?If the mayor in Virgil's mouth forgot to deliver food, what would she eat?Her living habits are not bad, how can she maintain it underground?

The hourglass has turned for another two weeks—this magic hourglass will turn itself upside down after the sand has drained, and the pointer next to it will be bumped and automatically rotated to keep time—the time is nine twenty, Hipper She felt that it was time to send Theron to bed, which was her biggest challenge of the day, and she had a premonition that Theron would look at her with emerald eyes, making it impossible for her to leave her alone in the lonely guest room.

"Theron."

Theron froze for a moment, then raised a smile, as if asking, "Is it time for you to play with me?"

Hipper sighed and said, "It's time to go to bed."

"But... but...?" She reluctantly glanced at the blue gentleman, and then looked at her floating chessboard.

"Haven't played enough, right? But you should go to bed on time, come on. There is plenty of time to play tomorrow, don't forget that you have to help me complete the experiment."

Speaking of "experiment", Theron's eyes lit up, maybe she thought it was synonymous with "play".The archmage was quite relieved, because most children regarded magic as a daunting way, and some people always thought "this is really powerful, but I will never learn it in my life", but Theron had already reduced the use of elements to the "fun" level.

Interest is always a good thing.Hipper took her hand and led her into the guest room floor, where one room was reserved for Virgil, and the other rooms were all empty.The leader of the water leader has already laid out a new quilt, and the quilt cover is printed with grass patterns in elegant colors. Everything is in the style that the archmage likes, but this room is still too simple.Under the supervision and guidance of the archmage, Theron took a bath in the public bathroom on the guest room floor, but Hipper still helped her wear the nightgown.

The hideous scars on the child's body were exposed to her eyes again. There were burns, blunt trauma, and lacerations, most of which were not serious, with scars overlapping scars. Fortunately—the archmage carefully touched a few major bones— —The bones were not injured. After yesterday's fun, she now suspects that most of these scars are caused by her own improper spellcasting.In history, many mages have killed themselves because of mistakes in casting spells.

Hipper lifted the quilt, let the child who didn't want to sleep lie down, and tucked the quilt for her, "If you wake up early, go to the living room to play with Tius. If I get up early, I will come Calling you. But don't play with the elements casually, okay? I have only one request."

Theron nodded, and probably understood that he had caused Hipper a lot of trouble. "OK."

Hipper patted her head, "Good boy." But there was nothing tender in her gray eyes, and when she was not smiling, such things as emotion seemed to have nothing to do with her.

She went out, taking the lighting spell with her.Outside the slender window is the dark sky, and the bright sand reflects the starlight, making it the most dazzling color in the wasteland.

But in the wee hours of the morning, Hipper was awakened by a strong disturbance of the elements, and her first thought was "Theron's in trouble," and she jumped out of bed.
