"Kain, I'm bored..."
ra waved the stick in front of the campfire, unable to help but complain.
Kain could only sigh, unable to say anything.
Anyway, it's really stuffy here. Continue reading at My Virtual Library Empire
Besides, their only "job" now was to kill monsters, so the students could only find other things to do to kill ti, other than eating and sleeping.
"Only one more week..."
"Ahh..."
ra had woken up two days ago, but Kain still felt a little worried.
He felt like she was missing sothing.
During the past period, it would not be an exaggeration to say that Kain had practically exhausted certain books on the nature of magic.
ra, who should have been a Magus in peak condition, was unconscious for five days due to energy exhaustion.
Kain does not think this is a coincidence.
You know, the first ti Kain fainted from excessive energy consumption, Kain didn't faint for five days, even though he had never undergone magical training or anything like that.
As for ra, she had a magical foundation and thorough training, so it was even more unlikely that she would have this problem.
Unless her magical roots are very weak, or there's sothing wrong with her body.
But from ra's previous performance, this seed unlikely. Her previous physique was simply lacking proper training, not defective. Her magical talent had beco excessively strong, even entering a state of sublimation when she advanced to mid-class Magus.
ra sat hugging her knees, her eyes occasionally glancing at Kain who was lost in thought.
In her mind she couldn't help but recall the scene before she fainted.
Thinking of this, ra couldn't help but blush.
Okay, she was actually quite... shy when she thought about it.
The two of them seed to be separated by only a thin mbrane. But for so reason, neither of them were willing to break this thin mbrane.
"Like this... maybe it's good."
Such a thought could not help but flash through ra's mind.
Suddenly, Kain raised his head, and the two faced each other.
Eye to eye.
ra looked straight into his eyes without any hesitation, as if she was lost in those deep golden pupils.
"Let's go for a walk."
Kain collected his thoughts, then opened his mouth.
ra hesitated a bit, but thinking that sitting here like this wouldn't do anything, she nodded in agreent.
The two of them then stood up at the sa ti and walked side by side. As they passed by other campfires, the students saw Kain passing by and all greeted him.
ra saw this and couldn't help but say.
"They really see you as a leader now, huh? Honestly, I have a hard ti imagining that those stubborn people would respect soone from the research departnt like you."
The fighting departnt, even if not stubborn, is trained to be stubborn.
It must be known that at first, many people from the combat departnt openly ridiculed the research departnt.
But now, they honor Kain as a leader.
"The surrounding environnt plays a huge role."
"The human mind is actually very fragile, ra."
Kain shook his head slightly, then slipped out of the stone door and went outside, ra followed behind.
Outside was just a hard open area, with no trees, only glowing grass occasionally sprouting from the ground.
Without a reference, it would be easy to get lost here, however, ra wasn't worried about that, because beside her was Kain.
The two of them walked around like that to relieve their boredom. And then, when he felt that the ti was right, Kain spoke.
"ra, you have been unconscious for five days."
ra was stunned for a mont, as if she couldn't believe Kain was even paying attention to this.
"Well... this is normal, I just got exhausted and passed out, isn't that the case with all Magus?"
ra spoke very sincerely, throughout the whole process, she hid it very well.
There are many ways to tell if a person is lying or not, the trick of observing the direction of eye movent is just the most basic one.
Here, ra had hidden herself very well. Her gaze when looking at him was still normal, without any evasion, even her facial muscles and lip movents had no flaws.
However, she put her arms behind her back.
This gesture could have many anings, but in a context like this. Kain could understand this gesture as ra unconsciously making a gesture to hide sothing behind her.
"ra, if you need soone to talk to, you can call ."
Kain didn't force her either, but ra cleverly realized that Kain had seen through her lie.
ra sighed and let go, Kain's eyes lingering for a mont.
ra's fingers were all bent at a certain angle, the incorrect posture proved one thing.
She is stressed.
The two continued walking, but then, ra suddenly reached out and stopped Kain.
Her hand gripped his wrist tightly, enough to understand how worried she was. But when ra faced Kain's calm and gentle gaze, she felt as if all the turmoil in her soul had cald down.
"If I tell you, will you promise not to tell anyone?"
"I promise."
Kain said, his face unchanged.
Then, ra let out a breath, her gaze gradually becoming lost, this was the sign of soone trying to recall a mory or sort out sothing complicated in their head. During this process, she would appear as if she was losing focus of her surroundings, but in reality her focus was shifting inward.
This could also be taken as a sign that ra was telling the truth, as the editor created the opening lie with almost no thought.
ra was also surprised by his question, so it was almost impossible for her to prepare a lie in advance.
"The story... probably started ten years ago."
"Ten years ago?"
Kain frowned, then he closed his mouth, not interrupting ra any further.
ra was lost in mories.
Ten years ago, it was a happy ti, a ti when her family was still complete.
"I still rember, my mother was a mid-class Magus."
"However, she never taught us magic, and I only found out about my mother being a mid-class Magus by chance."
ra talks about a lot of things, mostly about her mother, who is a Magus but hides her Magus identity.
During this process, Kain gently assessed ra's expression. There was joy, nostalgia, and also a vague confusion.
At the sa ti, ra's story was also a bit rambling, which was actually not too strange. When talking about a certain topic, normal people would only talk about more than two-thirds of the content that was closely related to that topic, while the remaining third was the rambling parts that arose during the conversation.
If it's too tight in so way, it could be a staged conversation.
So, once again, Kain could confirm that everything ra said was true, at least to her.
According to ra, the first ti she found out that her mother was a Magus was ten years ago.
At that ti, ra's father, Wilfred, was running for mayor of Whesling, but an enemy appeared to get in the way.
They successfully kidnapped ra and Myra, using them to threaten Mr. Wilfred.
The enemy even brought both of them into the Dungeon, planning to kill them to silence them and then dispose of their bodies there.
In that situation, her mother naturally could not hide her identity anymore. She overca thousands of obstacles, broke into the Dungeon, fought many monsters to save ra and Myra.
After finishing, she was exhausted and passed out.
It was ten days later that she regained consciousness.
"Ten days?"
Kain could not help but feel surprised.
To beco a mid-class Magus, pure luck is very rare, so Kain does not believe that there will be a Magus who can reach mid-class without so training.
Therefore, this so-called "seven days of losing consciousness" is more like a disease.
An association gradually appeared in Kain's mind. He looked at ra's face, and a word suddenly popped into his mind.
Hereditary.
But what is inherited and why is inherited, he temporarily does not know.
Because ra's story isn't over yet.
"After my mother woke up, we returned to our normal lives. But my mother beca less talkative and less smiling. She would sotis show a worried face when no one was around, and often locked herself in her room more."
"My father was also very worried, but he had just beco mayor at that ti, and had less ti for his family. So he had to put my mother's matter aside for later."
"But... there was no after that."
"A month after she woke up, she suddenly called into her room and gave so instructions."
"ra, no matter what, don't learn magic."
"I still rember that verbatim."
"And that night, my mother... disappeared."
Speaking of this, deep confusion appeared on ra's face.
"She disappeared from her own room, leaving nothing but a pool of blood..."
