I really just want to hang out in the magic world.

"These bastards should be thankful that they only took sleeping pills instead of poison!" said Neilia angrily.

After listening to Ruan Xiaozhe and Yunel's description, she became furious with the students of White Tiger Tower.

"How dare you attack the innocent Vodanaz!"

"Actually, I was a little wrong. I did participate in the swordsmanship class of the White Tiger Tower students." Ruan Xiaozhe lowered his head and sighed.

"Ah? Then this isn't really a mistake..."

"But this is not the point," said Ruan Xiaozhe.

Neilia stared at Ruan Xiaozhe with wide eyes, but Ruan Xiaozhe completely ignored her and continued speaking.

"In conclusion, Delgui, I understand your shock, but this is not a mean or dishonorable act, it is a strategy."

"Yes, yes, the one who suffers the loss is the fool." Nilia agreed.

For Nilia, who came from a hunter family, this level of revenge was nothing.

"I still think we should be more open and aboveboard..." Delgui was a little embarrassed.

"Humph, Delgui, your concept of honor is too narrow. Let's look at the result. If we fight here and make a noise, we will all be arrested. But if we use sleeping pills, we won't make a noise or fight, and we can retreat safely, and they can return to school safely. Isn't this more honorable?"

Genando waved his fist in indignation and said dissatisfiedly.

"Is this... like this?"

“Of course it’s an honor,” Nilia added.

Yunel and Gennando followed suit.

"It's really an honor." Ruan Xiaozhe said.

"Didn't the royal family recognize such an honor?" Ruan Xiaozhe glanced at Ganando.

"Yes...that's right." Delgui was unconsciously influenced by Ruan Xiaozhe's way of thinking and slowly changed his opinion.

……

The sound of bone trackers' footsteps could be heard in the distance, and Ruan Xiaozhe, who was hiding in the dark, nodded with satisfaction.

"The target has been controlled." A voice came from the Bone Tracker's mouth.

The bone tracker did not think there was anything unusual about the White Tiger Tower students' drowsiness, because they were just low-intelligence undead creatures and did not have such judgment.

"Now all we have to do is wait." Ruan Xiaozhe was sure that the bone trackers would soon disperse because they had completed their mission.

"Where are you going?" Yunel asked Ruan Xiaozhe who stood up.

"While waiting, I plan to take a look around." Ruan Xiaozhe walked cautiously towards the city wall.

Although his original escape plan was ruined due to this chaos, he couldn't return empty-handed.

"We have to find out something."

He wanted to find out where in the mountains the school's massive walls extended, and if there was really no way to escape.

The others could only follow Ruan Xiaozhe and move forward carefully.

Although the bone trackers had left, the surrounding darkness was still oppressive, and the higher up the mountain they went, the steeper the terrain became, and the denser the trees and bushes became.

"It's too dark..."

"This is too dangerous. You might fall."

Since the students of the White Tiger Tower had already left, Ruan Xiaozhe and his companions could no longer rely on the light of their torches, so the surroundings seemed even darker than before.

"Vodanaz, we must light the lamp."

"Wouldn't that be too dangerous?"

"There are plenty of obstacles here, so it won't be a problem."

"Okay, light magic!"

Following Ruan Xiaozhe's spell, a strong light illuminated the surroundings, as if it were daytime.

Seeing this, Nilia suddenly felt uneasy. Normally, at such a long distance, the dense trees and bushes should be able to block the light, but Ruan Xiaozhe's light magic... was too strong.

"I hope we won't be discovered." Genando said nervously.

"Please put out the lights, little ones. It keeps us from sleeping."

Suddenly, a strange voice sounded!

"!!!"

The low voice sounded in the forest, as if it was not made by a human, but by some magical being.

Ruan Xiaozhe and the others, whose nerves had already been strained by the crazy principal, were suddenly terrified.

Is there a trap here too?

"who are you?"

The first person to calm down was Ruan Xiaozhe, "If it was the principal's summon, it would have taken action long ago."

"I will ask the questions first, because you are the ones who came here on your own initiative. If you answer the questions correctly, I will treat you as a guest, but if you answer incorrectly, you will be regarded as an uninvited guest."

"Don't be nervous, the problem is simple. A dwarf lit five candles late at night, but a strong wind outside the window blew out one."

"Soon after, the dwarf friend who was drinking next door suddenly pushed the door open and blew out another candle. So the dwarf closed the window and door. The next morning, how many candles were left?"

"This is a trap." Ruan Xiaozhe quickly realized the trap of this riddle after hearing it.

On the surface, two of the five candles were blown out, so there should be three left, but the candles will burn out over time. Therefore, the correct answer should be 0.

"Three!" Gennando answered without hesitation.

Ruan Xiaozhe was shocked and looked at Ganando quickly.

"!"

"correct answer!"

"...Wait a minute, shouldn't it all be burned?" Ruan Xiaozhe couldn't help but ask.

The strange voice seemed to answer with a hint of doubt: "When asking a riddle like this, of course, you use an inextinguishable magic candle. Isn't that natural?"

"..."

Ruan Xiaozhe cursed fiercely in his heart: "This magic world is really full of traps."

This is exactly what the voice said at the beginning - the problem is very simple...

"You answered the question correctly. I will treat you as a guest, but..."

"It's a rare opportunity to meet guests, so why not answer one more question? If you answer correctly, I will give you a gift. Even if you answer incorrectly, it will not change my attitude of hospitality."

"We are ready." Ruan Xiaozhe answered without hesitation. Such an opportunity cannot be missed.

"There is a big guy here in the morning, turns into a small guy at noon, turns back to a big guy in the afternoon, and disappears completely at night. Excuse me, who is this big guy?"

"..."

Ruan Xiaozhe and the others were stunned. This unexpected puzzle caught them off guard.

"what is this?"

“I have absolutely no idea.”
