The next day, when Aesop returned to the Exorcist Association in a "disgraced" state, he was indeed warmly received by friends from the association.

Those friends who were familiar with Aesop were all there. As soon as they saw Aesop enter the door, they rushed up to greet him, and even touched Aesop's body worriedly to see if there was any injury.The hospitality was hard to come by, so Aesop had to tell them that I was fine with an embarrassed smile, while trying to explain: "The werewolves kept their promises, and they did release me intact, but the process was quite bumpy, so I still find out by myself." way back."

He told his colleagues the wording that Joseph made up, and everyone believed it.Marta breathed a sigh of relief and blamed: "Fortunately, it's okay this time, Aesop. In the future, you have to hone your experience in fighting the enemy. Although your spells are very strong, you will be counted against the enemy. You are the youngest here. Boy, everyone cares about you and takes good care of you, do you know that? If you know it, be more careful in the future, and don’t get caught by the enemy at every turn, let us worry.”

"Yeah." Aesop nodded, "I'm sorry that everyone couldn't catch the enemy because of the trouble."

"Not being able to catch the enemy is still secondary. It's hard to win in that kind of situation. If we meet again next time, I have to organize the personnel well. There are not many people. In fact, three or five are enough. The important thing is to have enough elites and cooperate well. .”

"Hmm...Speaking of which, how many people were injured by that werewolf back then? Was the injury serious?"

Marta was a little surprised when Aesop, who was always quiet, suddenly asked a question.She looked at Aesop's serious face: "...I don't remember very clearly, it seems not too many, two or three? The word 'serious' is too subjective, let me just talk about the objective situation: the injury is serious." The heaviest man got cuts and lay in bed for a week."

Aesop frowned tightly when he heard it: It seems that Joseph's attack was really not serious, no wonder the exorcist from the branch wanted to beat him, and the asylum he applied for with the association himself was no longer valid-in fact, I heard yesterday After hearing the truth about Joseph's injury, Aesop was more or less concerned, so he decided to ask today.Right now, he thought for a moment, and then asked: "What about the medical expenses? Has the association paid in advance?"

"Of course I did." Marta was a little puzzled, "Aesop, why are you asking this?"

"Nothing." Aesop shook his head thoughtfully.

That night.

Out of apology for his mistake of being "taken as a hostage", Aesop offered to take Marta's day shift as compensation.At the end of the day, he walked out of the association and came to the donation box outside the back door of the association.

The money collected in this donation box is ultimately used to help human beings injured by monsters.Aesop took out a stack of money from his box and solemnly put it in the donation box.

What he thought was that the passers-by who were injured in Joseph's wounding incident were not at fault, and Joseph was actually not at fault.In the final analysis, everything is due to the inherent mutual hostility between humans and monsters, and Aesop, as an exorcist, will not express any naive views such as "Can humans and demons live in harmony?"He could only make up for Joseph's fault with a modest donation.

It was cold and windy.Aesop put the money in, closed the box again, and finally freed himself to breathe into his almost frozen hands.The next moment, his hand was suddenly held by another hand extending from behind. That hand was different from ordinary people's hand, with long nails that looked familiar.Aesop's heart moved, he turned his head, and sure enough, he saw Joseph's familiar face.

He told Joseph that he would go back at night, but he didn't expect that the other party would come to pick him up directly.

Joseph wrapped his hand into his own, complaining in his tone: "I wear a mask every day, why don't I remember to wear gloves. How much money was stuffed just now? I'll go back and pay you back."

Aesop was taken aback: "You know?"

"Don't think of me so magically, I just saw you donating. But looking at it this way, I should have guessed right? You donated because I hurt someone last time, right?"

"……Um."

"Indeed, I was also at fault for that matter." Joseph sighed, "I have to use money to make up for it, and I don't want to be taken away by your association. How about it, dear, do you have any arrangements for tonight? If not, go to Have a date?"

"Ah?...Okay." Aesop was dazed by the sudden date invitation, he agreed in a daze, and then realized belatedly: Isn't a date full of roses, candlelight dinners, and fireflies? Glittering meadows by the river, and breezes and kisses, essential events in a lover's life?What will happen after the date, the general development is that the boy drives his girlfriend downstairs, and the two kiss and say goodbye, but he and Joseph live opposite each other... so... they are all at the door of the house, who can control it?

For the first time, Aesop realized the danger of the two living opposite each other.

Then Aesop, in such a disturbed mood, found a sports uniform that he put in the association to put on, and went on a date with Joseph.As expected, Joseph took him to a well-decorated French restaurant, and as expected, he ignored some vegetarian appetizers after serving the dishes, and then enthusiastically and skillfully set his hands on the steak in front of him.Every time the waiter served food, she stayed by Joseph's side for a few seconds longer than others, and her intentions could not be more obvious. Aesop sat opposite Joseph and sulked, but didn't realize that he looked like this now. There is no deterrence at all--

Aesop wears a sweater with trousers at night. The sweater is a traditional black, white and gray color scheme. Without the strong aura of the red and black costumes of the exorcist, the style is a bit cute, and it is completely age-reducing. The 21-year-old exorcist, who was eighteen or nineteen years old, forcibly made him look like a high school student.In contrast, Joseph, who is wearing a long windbreaker, has a strong aura and outstanding temperament. With a beautiful face, it is no wonder that he is eye-catching.Aesop watched Joseph thank the waiter politely, and then looked away: "Hey, Aesop, why are you looking at me, what are you thinking?"

"I'm wondering if I'm going to be jealous every day when I'm in love with you." As soon as Aesop finished complaining, Joseph burst out laughing.Aesop looked at him with increasing resentment: "Is it so funny? Are you honored to look deceptive?"

"No, I'm just very happy. Aesop's jealousy means that Aesop likes me very much. Maybe I will be jealous of you someday. Aesop, you will also please many girls, but I like you The type is not here." Joseph said seriously with a serious face.Aesop was skeptical about Joseph's words. He knew that Joseph would sometimes tell harmless lies to ease the atmosphere or make people happy, but when Joseph said this, he did feel a little more balanced in his heart.

This is probably the magic of love.Thinking of this, Aesop flicked on the mobile phone at hand, and started searching while Joseph wasn't paying attention - he now has to quickly search for some necessary knowledge before men and men go to bed, in case of emergencies.

Although the chances of that kind of thing happening today are not particularly high, it is always right to plan ahead.

So Joseph watched suspiciously as Aesop took out his mobile phone and peeked at the screen from time to time throughout the meal, with a serious expression as if he was facing a big enemy. Joseph asked him what he was looking at, but he didn't say anything.Could it be that the Exorcist Society is planning to beat me up again?Joseph felt the crisis in front of Aesop for the first time.

But this kind of thing is impossible, after all, neither of them will deliberately hide anything from each other.On the way home, the two held hands all the way. Although Britain in winter does not have the riverside grassland with fireflies flickering as Aesop expected, it also has tall evergreen trees lining the road, casting gentle shadows on the road they walked.The cold wind blows from time to time at night, but the hands that are together are very warm.Aesop looked at the shadow of the two holding hands under his feet for a while, then raised his head to look at Joseph's profile, and couldn't help feeling warmer in his heart.This is the happiness of love, right?he thinks.

For the first two days, he was only concerned about being surprised on one day, and busy on the other. Until today, he was able to calm down and savor the feeling.How should I put it... When I'm with the person I like, I don't need to bother thinking about other things, so now he doesn't have any other feelings except that he is so happy that he is dizzy.

After all, there are no problems to solve today. The only boss to face is Joseph. He has to defend himself in the boss battle at the door of his house, so as not to let himself be dragged into Joseph's lair - Aesop thought so vigilantly, but when they returned At the door of the house, facing Joseph's face, Aesop's mind went blank again, and he forgot everything.

Joseph stood under the moonlight, and the silvery moonlight seemed to soften his pair of blue vertical pupils that usually looked extraordinarily sharp: "Are you going back like this? What are your plans for tonight?"

"I...I'm preparing for the S-level exorcist qualification exam recently, and I need to practice at night." Aesop explained dizzily under Joseph's gaze.What happened yesterday made him even more determined. He must pass the S-class exorcist qualification exam, not only to be able to stand side by side with Joseph, but also to secretly take a look at Joseph’s secret resume—although he asked directly Joseph probably would not have concealed it, but Aesop always felt that it was impolite to intervene like this, and it was not as good as seeing it with his own eyes.

"Well. It's a good thing to take the exam. My brother should hope that I have a strong and motivated lover." Joseph seemed reasonable, so Aesop nodded and was about to turn around and go home.But at the next moment, Joseph actually added another sentence: "But in this case, I strongly recommend you to come to my house."

Aesop: "?!" Aren't you in heat recently, is it really good to invite me home like this?

He didn't expect Joseph to add another sentence, which successfully made him experience the ups and downs of life: "Don't be nervous, what I mean is that I suggest you come and practice actual combat with me, and I have something else to think about." Please help, it just happens to be suitable for you to practice your hands."

Aesop: "..." Although the misunderstanding has been clarified, this situation seems to be worse than that one...

TBC

Aesop: I thought you wanted to serve me well, but I didn’t expect you to want me to be beaten and moved
