Atlas Double Star Book

Chapter 36 Confession

Scholars and knights, the two walked together.

"Need a break? You don't look well in the morning." Neil asked cautiously.

"I'm very good."

Other than that, no more answers.

But the teacher still looks very tired, and the spell consumes a lot of energy.Neil really wanted to carry the teacher on his back, but it took a lot of effort to make Pelias willing to be carried by him.

So Neil began to test.

"Pelia, look..."

"Don't call me that," the scholar was a little sullen, and quickly suppressed his emotions, "I am your teacher, that kind of name is too..."

"close."

"No." Peleas denied the wording, but couldn't think of a more appropriate one.

Neil smiled and said, "Haha, I'm good at literature and rhetoric, right?"

"It's very good... even better than me. You loved reading all kinds of stories when you were a child, and you wrote letters in a decent way, and the handwriting is also beautiful..." Pelias smiled with his head down, as if thinking of something cute.

On the contrary, Neal was not very satisfied, he didn't want to be treated as a child by the teacher.But after thinking about it, the teacher was probably annoyed by what happened last night, so he forcibly tried to restore his dignity.

Maybe let him go?Neil thought, obeying like a humble student.

Peleas glanced back, pretending to straighten the folds on his shoulders.It may be that Neil's concession doubled his confidence, and the scholar suddenly became proud, "Look, your grammar is so good, isn't it better than Rand?"

"should be."

The teacher was happy, and then asked: "So...is it better than Egg?"

Neil quickly nodded in agreement.

"Aristocratic education attaches the most importance to grammar and rhetoric. These two gentlemen have also received the best Sibyl aristocratic education since childhood. But you are better than them, and you even write in Imperial language, which is your foreign language..." The teacher said The chatterbox opened immediately.

But Neal had a bad feeling.

Peleas said with great interest: "Look, this proves that you are very talented in languages, and your memory has always been excellent. In this case... why don't we start learning Ibañe? You must be able to learn it well!"

It really is preaching!Neil smiled wryly.

Teachers generally don't preach, unless they are very guilty and need to regain their confidence.

Neil smiled wryly, "But I want to earn money to support my family, so I don't have time."

"It doesn't matter. You can submit your resignation letter to Trande. Let's go back to the academy and I will concentrate on teaching you." Peleas said very seriously.

resignation!Neil couldn't help laughing.If I resign, how can I buy books, fine robes, jewelry and raw materials for making snacks for the teacher?And he also wants to resurface the wooden floors at home.

Probably because the students were noncommittal, Peleas actually took the initiative to get close to Neil, and said in a tone of discussion with children: "This is also a good way, isn't it? You are very talented in all aspects, and it is really suitable for you. Become a warlock. My method was wrong before, and you didn't like to learn. But I have also improved, and I can teach you better. Neil, do you want to consider going back to the academy together? Grandpa will be happy too. Your thoughts If it's all spent on studying..."

God, Neal was ashamed and embarrassed.As a 26-year-old young man, he was taught to study hard like a middle school student.

Gotta find a way!

So Neil bowed his head and kissed the teacher's forehead lightly.

"!"

Pelias became quiet for a moment, and kept a distance from Neil stiffly, without saying a word.It's like a cat playing with a ball. It was in high spirits, but suddenly it was hit in the face by a bouncing ball.

Oops, it seems to be a bit too much... Neil couldn't help biting his knuckles, thinking about countermeasures.Isn't his goal to convince the teacher to let him carry on the journey?Neil took his measure, and said after a while: "I should learn spells. If I have a certain foundation, maybe this time I won't be so easily invaded by the black mage's 'roster'. Next time you can teach me." , Teacher, I must study hard."

Peleas obviously wanted to answer, but held back, pretending to be busy calculating the distance to Itil.

Neil thought to himself: "He's trying to be strong, let him relax first."

So the young man put his hands behind his back and whistled, as if he was walking happily.Scholars gradually relaxed, and naturally followed the pace of youth.The two walked through the shade of the trees, and the clear wind blew by, making it a bit cold, but they didn't feel it.

What a happy moment.

Neil suddenly realized this clearly, and looked at the teacher's face.

Sensing this gaze, Peleas also smiled back.

"A little tired." Neil said lightly, pretending to be looking at the scenery.

"Tired? Me too."

The young man answered naturally: "Then I will carry you this time."

Pelias hesitated for a moment, but agreed.

Neil happily picked up the teacher, feeling that his steps were lighter.

"I'll recover my strength soon, and I won't need it at that time." Pelias added solemnly, as if he didn't have the right to live in this world if he didn't say this.

"Yes, we arrived at Itil early, and Heather and the others are waiting." Neil smiled, rubbing his cheek against the teacher's hand, just like he did when he was a child.

The mountains and fields are vast, and the gloomy sky is shrouded.

Along the way, Peleas paid special attention to the "Polaris" wristband.Originally, the "Polaris" could detect the surrounding monsters, but now it seems to be malfunctioning, pointing to some ordinary rocks from time to time.

"It's strange, how could you mistake the stone for a monster?" Neil looked at the linseed oil bubbles on the dial in confusion.

Pelias shook his head, "No, I'm not mistaken, the stone is the monster."

He turned over the stones—

The worm and snake swam away, and strange dark red runes were engraved on the stone, flashing an ominous light.

"To be honest, I have never seen this kind of rune. I just heard from Teacher Pross: Ibane had a spell in the past that could turn a mage into a bird, dolphin, or other animal. The epic "Omega" Wasn’t it mentioned in “Lorna”? When the tsunami engulfed the royal fleet, the prince prayed to the god Vayura, and the winged trade wind god gave him a spell to transform the prince into an albatross to escape the shipwreck.”

"This is just an epic." After Neil finished speaking, he suddenly felt that the words seemed very familiar.

Peleas said excitedly: "Epics are not just stories, they can be seen as another kind of reality. Don't you think... the story of the prince turning into a bird is very similar to the epics of the Dienrians? Archmage In order to save his friend, Salad descended into Hades, and turned into a giant deer."

"It's different."

Neil finally got a chance to speak and was eager to impress his teacher.He said cautiously: "I saw it with my own eyes. This rune turns the fox into a monster. How should I put it... It's like... when making bread..."

He couldn't speak, his ears turned red.

The teacher smiled softly: "You are very good, I understand what you mean. In other words, this rune has at least two characteristics: 1. Its spell structure is extremely invasive, and it will catch animals that approach , and forcibly change the natural state of the animal with its own spell structure; 2. This rune contains the energy to complete the above transformation, and at the same time, this energy is very polluting, which is what you experienced before...'Roster' Polluted. That is to say... the monsters born from this rune are man-made, and they are different from naturally formed monsters. In essence, this is consistent with the spell that the mage turns into a bird. It's just that The process of change is polluted by something."

"The point is...?"

"The above are the key points," Pelias was not unhappy, but just wanted to scare Neil, "Please review carefully."

Neil lost all energy in an instant and lowered his head.

The teacher managed to win the round, and he was secretly happy.Pelias sat on the ground and studied for a while, then said: "The structure of this rune is not difficult, I can decipher it. But what I can't figure out is... what is the key, polluting substance? .Or...what on earth is polluting the pure energy? That may be the secret of the black mage."

"I'm worried that the Icelanders still haven't given up and are still planning to attack the imperial capital with monsters," Neil said.

"That's what I'm worried about... I can easily break this dark rune, but there are probably hundreds or even thousands of these runes, and their power is constantly flowing. It's really strange... What is giving The runes provide energy to continuously create killing weapons?"

"Teacher, you have to think about it carefully. That girl really needs you, and no one can save her." Neil was full of anxiety when he thought of the seriously ill girl.

Peleas said firmly: "I will not give up on her."

They chatted about heather again.Peleas said he and Heather had been friends since their apprenticeships.

"Heath Nan is a heroic and mighty girl, taller than Hein. Some students laughed at her, saying she was a barbarian, a gorilla. Shinan beat up the gossiping guy, so handsome When she was young, she often fought with Hein to protect me, what the children did was really..." Peleas smiled wryly.

Neil couldn't help laughing either.

"It's amazing, why did Heather and I become friends? Heather hates men very much, and I... am afraid of strangers. Maybe it's because we were both abandoned by our parents. Heather was abandoned by her mother when she was a child, and it was Teacher Gracia who took her Going back to school, it's very similar to my situation."

Neil was stunned for a moment. He only knew that the teacher was an orphan before, but he didn't know the details.He asked eagerly: "Abandoned...?"

"Ah, didn't I tell you?" Peleas said calmly. "I was very weak when I was a child. There were several brothers and sisters in my family. Then there was a year of drought, and the grapes died. My parents couldn't support them. More children...you can only throw the sick me by the side of the road."

"How could this be!" Neil was very excited.

"Things are over...I don't blame them. It's too difficult for people to live." Peleas looked away. "If you abandon me, your parents will be able to support other children. This is a valuable thing."

Neil listened, feeling sad.

He suddenly realized that in the teacher's life, he had never been tenderly loved by his family.What Pelias did not get, he gave him unsparingly.

"I'll do my best to help Heather, she's my friend," said Peleas.

Neal stared at the teacher.This was the image he had looked up to as a child, this man... tender, strong, compassionate.

Like a hearth.

Guide the returnees on snowy nights.

How can such a person not be loved with all his heart?

Neil understood, and his mind was firm.

The wind blows over the bare rock, the knight and the scholar stand side by side, looking at the big city in the wilderness, their robes are filled with the wind, and the shadow of the eagle hovers slowly.

"What's wrong? You haven't spoken?" Pelias asked in confusion.

The young knight was silent.

Pelias had a bad feeling, and Neil was probably thinking about something.He hurriedly said, "Let's hurry."

"Pelia, I've made up my mind."

"What have you thought about... There is nothing to think about. Everything is normal and there is no difficulty." Peleas was a little flustered.

Neil turned to smile: "I've thought about what to do in the future."

"After what...?" Pelias' voice became smaller and smaller, for fear that Neil would get involved in emotional matters.

"You must be happy." Neil looked serious.

Pelias laughed when he heard that.

What a childish remark.He relaxed, "What happiness is there for a person like me? To live is to live, and to die is to die."

"You always avoid. Since it is my responsibility and desire to make you happy. Then... First, I must help you face the reality. There are some facts that you cannot deny."

"Escape? How could you escape? What are you avoiding?" Peleas immediately retorted after being poked in the sore spot.

But the young man held the back of his head to prevent him from running away.Their foreheads were pressed against their foreheads, as if they had a fever.

"Aren't you insisting on the rigor of a scholar? Let me demonstrate it to you." Neil said.

"Do not……"

Along the long silver hair, Neil's fingers slowly slid down, and finally, gently pressed the teacher's neck.Under the skin, a warm and bright red danced.

The two of them clearly felt Peleas' accelerated heartbeat and pulse.

Oops.

He guessed, but it was too late.

"Did you feel it?" Neil smiled softly, "Admit it...you love me."

The author has something to say: Try to see if you can update another chapter tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, roll up your sleeves.
