Son of Light and Darkness

The library is on the first floor.

Aya and Jin walked in cautiously, and went back and forth several times without finding Eli.

"Didn't Eli say that he's waiting for us here? Why hasn't he arrived yet?" Jin looked at the large group of trainee magicians, but he didn't see Eli.

Aya shook her head in confusion: "Maybe he hasn't arrived yet?"

Suddenly, a black head protruded from the tall pile of books next to it.

Although the eyes were covered by the hair, both Aya and Jin could see the infinite resentment in Eli's eyes.

"I'm here." Eli waved his hand lightly.

Both of them went to sit next to each other, looked at the pile of books that was higher than people, and looked at each other, and they both saw happiness in each other's eyes: "Ms. Rafael is really a good teacher who is dedicated to his duties... ...it's a good thing he doesn't teach us."

Eli glanced at the two of them resentfully, holding a thick book "A Brief History of the Development of Wind Magic" that could be used as a murder weapon in his hand.

Originally thought that Raphael was a very gentle teacher, but now Eli realized how wrong he was.

Raphael, who seemed gentle and harmless on the surface, had only one word to describe his disciple, cruel.

The twenty ridiculously thick books he handed to Eli were required to be memorized within a week, and random checks were also required.

Moreover, many of these books were written in ancient magic characters. Eli had no ordinary education at all in Lante Village, and he couldn't read all the characters like those written in heavenly scriptures, let alone ancient characters.

Eli suddenly could understand why Senior, on the way to send him to the king's city, had an uncomfortable face when he talked about his teacher Raphael.

Glancing at the two of them angrily, Eli held a translation dictionary in one hand and flipped through the parchment in the other: "Hurry up."

He called the two of them here to help, not to gloat.

Aya had no choice but to start reading the book with Jin alone.

After watching for a long time, Jin began to feel sleepy. He yawned and said, "It would be great if someone could help, preferably someone who is proficient in these things."

As soon as the words fell, he suddenly shut up, and looked around nervously.

"Look who this is? Little Eli from Christopher's family." Suddenly, a familiar voice came.

Eli turned his head, it was Senior and Kevin.

"Is it the homework assigned by Teacher Raphael?" After seeing the book in Eli's hand clearly, Senior seemed to recall some unbearable past events, with a look of deep hatred.

"I've met His Royal Highness the First Prince." Aya and Jin once again met a rare man of influence in the academy, but this time they were much calmer than when they met Mephisto last time.

Senior smiled slightly and raised his palm: "Excuse me. You are also friends of my junior brother, so you don't need to salute in the future."

"His Royal Highness." Eli shouted belatedly.

……

"Well, don't be strangers to me like this, your brother and I are very good friends." Senior smiled, "I have done these homework before, and I have saved these translations, if you need if."

What's this?This is the legendary instant charcoal!

Aya suddenly became excited.Jin also forced a smile, but the smile was much more uncomfortable.

"It's still not necessary, I can finish it." Eli refused without much consideration, which was always due to his character.

Senior was not surprised. Mephisto had told him before that Eli would not accept help from others in vain, even if it was kind help.

"That's fine, but if you want to do it yourself, you can also find someone to guide you." Kevin received Senior's eyes and smiled immediately.

Aya whispered: "But these things, aren't there very few people who study them? Except... By the way, isn't Senior Mephisto researching these things?"

Her voice inadvertently became louder, and Jin immediately reminded in a low voice: "Don't be so loud, the administrator will kick us out."

……

Aya, Eli, Senior, and Kevin stood in a row at the door of the library, watching Jin silently.

Jin blushed, and after a long time, he whispered: "I didn't have any friends when I was very young, because almost everything I said would come true unintentionally. So..."

Eli looked at him helplessly.

"Jin, it's all right. No one blames you." Aya tried to comfort him.

Instead, Senior looked at him with surprise on his face.

"Can I recruit you into my Guards? Your skill is too powerful. If you encounter an enemy invasion in the future, you can directly reach an army." Senior blinked his eyes.

Kevin hit the nail on the head: "The mainland is so peaceful now, how could there be enemy troops coming?"

Senior and Eli bid farewell and left.

Kevin chased after him with a depressed expression on his face.

Eli looked at Trish the librarian who was blocking the door with a broomstick on his face, and then at Jin who was still looking frustrated, sighed softly, and cleared all the books in his hand. Store it in a storage ring.

This ring was exchanged by him with an adventurer with ten third-order monster cores a long time ago. The capacity in it is limited, and there are two books left that cannot fit in, so he can only hold it in his hand.

It is really difficult to translate and memorize these books in just one week.

Although Eli has an extraordinary ability to comprehend dark magic and is far smarter than ordinary people, he can't be asked to write these down without knowing all the words, right?

Moreover, these books not only contain ancient characters, but also elven characters.

Eli, who frowned unconsciously, didn't notice a person standing in front of him until he was about to bump into him, when the other person gently reminded him: "Cute little Eli, didn't you see me?"

Eli froze for a moment, then looked up and saw Anastasia in a moon-white dress.

Her hair was pulled up in ruby ​​hairpins, with two golden locks at the temples, looking elegant and casual.On her slender wrist she wore a simple silver bracelet set with an inferior ruby, which she did not change, although it did not match her attire.

"Anastasia?" Aya's eyes lit up, as if she saw the god she worshiped.

Although Anastasia is two years older than them, she seems to be the same age as them, and she is more approachable and gentle and polite to everyone, so even if she has no power, she still has a high status in the academy. Popularity, especially in the middle and lower class, a lot of people are supporting her.

Anastasia looked back from a distance, with some undisguised disappointment: "The two people just now, are the big emperor brother and his guardian knight Kevin?"

For a princess and prince like her who is not favored and valued, people like Senior are unattainable existences for them.

Apart from being able to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who is respected by thousands of people from a distance at royal gatherings, they rarely have the opportunity to meet even in the academy.

Maybe Senior didn't even know he had such a younger sister?Anastasia thought to herself a little mockingly.

Aya looked at her with a little sympathy: "Yes, His Highness Senior is a very enthusiastic person. His Highness Anastasia, it's a coincidence that I met you here."

After Anastasia came back to her senses, she quickly smiled and said, "It's okay, we don't have to see each other anymore, you can call me Anna. I am here to deliver the invitation letter this time. In order to thank Eli for helping me last time, I Here are some invitations to an auction at Prince Rupert's estate this weekend. Will you be there, Eli?"

Eli glanced at the exquisite platinum invitation card, and was about to refuse, when Anastasia looked at him expectantly: "I...I don't have a partner yet, you know, I might find someone No partner, if you refuse me."

Seeing the sadness and pleading on Anastasia's face, Aya and Jin hurriedly took the invitation and said to her, "Don't worry, Eli won't refuse. Hey, there are exactly three invitations, and the three of us can share them all." go?"

When Anastasia saw it, she immediately stopped the tears in her blue eyes: "Thank you so much, Eli, I will send you your prom costume. Please be sure to attend. "

After completing the task, Anastasia seemed to be much more relaxed. She walked away along the side of the road with unhurried and graceful steps.

Eli turned his head slightly, looked at Aya on the left, and Jin on the right.

"Oh, Eli, look, she is Her Royal Highness, she came here to beg you for help so pitifully, how dare you refuse?" Jin immediately smiled, "You have helped her once before, no Would mind helping her a second time, right?"

Aya used a tender offensive: "Eli~~His Royal Highness Anastasia has always been my favorite senior. Whether you can help her now depends entirely on you."

Eli pressed his eyebrows in some trouble: "Prince Rupert's name may not be familiar to you, but his daughter's name should be familiar to you, Daphne."

Daphne?That femme fatale beauty senior?

"Oh, I'm going home that day. My mother said that if I don't come home she will call my father to beat me up." Jin looked at Eli pitifully.

"By the way, I also made an appointment with An Qi to buy magic crystals. She wants to create a magic jewelry, and she may not have time." Aya cried and tried to make her face look a little more depressed.

In fact, although her family is a small nobleman, they can't afford to provoke a family background of Daphne's level, and Jin, a lonely nobleman who pins the whole family's hopes, is even more afraid to come to her house.

It's nothing more than a good relationship. If they turn against each other, their only choice is to stand on the opposite side of Prince Rupert...

Eli looked at the two live treasures and smiled softly: "No way."

"Then is it possible for us to have a good relationship with Daphne?" Jin struggled.

"Yes." Eli told him affirmatively, "As long as you put Mephisto in a box and tie a bow for her."

……

Jin and Aya tried to think about it, and felt chills all over their bodies.

Go ahead.At least facing Daphne, they can still know how they died.
