As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

The dim candlelight illuminated the determination on the blonde girl's face.

Looking at the girl who was devoted to her master, Charlotte couldn't help but shook her head and said with a wry smile: "That guy is really lucky to have a maid like you."

Having witnessed the young man pounce on the blood-red fire dragon with her own eyes, and being powerless to stop it, she could completely understand Alice's feelings.

"but......"

"I'm not able to spend Grace Day and New Year with my master, so I feel a little lonely." Having said that, Alice lowered her head again, looking a little melancholy.

Charlotte was more open-minded. She patted her shoulder optimistically and said with a smile, "Think positively."

"Nia and Lyanna couldn't be there for Roy either. They were miserable and lonely, just like everyone else."

If we all suffer together, won’t everyone suffer less? Isn’t that sharing the suffering?

If she was the only one suffering, but those two were accompanying Roy on a tryst, Charlotte would go crazy.

Alice felt better after hearing what Charlotte said.

Chapter 76: Original Intention

In the cafeteria in the early morning, as usual, there were whispers about school gossip.

"I heard Roy and Jon Snow went on a trip together!"

"What do you mean by travel? Isn't it about extracurricular practice?"

"You're so stupid! A man and a woman alone, what's the point of doing extracurricular activities?! They were seen shopping together on Grace Day before, and even went back to the dorm together! This time they're calling it a trip, but I think it's just a pretext for fulfilling their obligations... Hehe, those who understand will understand!"

Whenever similar rumors arose, someone would joke with Winter and congratulate him on having such a good brother-in-law.

To be honest, if it weren't for the prince's face and kind personality, Winter would have been unable to hold back his smile.

But lately, he’s been able to laugh off the jokes.

"Roy? That guy is not bad. If Jon Snow likes it, it's not a bad idea for them to be together."

The engagement between the imperial prince and the duke's daughter has never been a secret in the aristocratic circle.

Seeing that Winter acted indifferent, everyone felt that Winter was quite generous and actually didn't care.

Only Winter himself knew that it was not a bad idea to be generous to a dead person.

Anyone who dares to touch his things will pay the price!

As for whether Jon Snow will be injured?

He had instructed them not to attack Jon Snow, but considering the latter's strength, nothing would happen.

It would be better to get hurt a little bit.

Having lost his personal apprentice and being injured, he is now vulnerable. Isn't this a good opportunity for me to comfort him?

Thinking of this, Winter tasted the delicious flavor of a century-old brew in his morning tea.

However, at this moment, a carriage drove past the canteen door.

The golden-winged griffin and the snow-white silver wolf are enough to prove the identity of the visitor.

Unfortunately, such a good World of Warcraft mount is now ownerless.

Winter had just thought of this when he unexpectedly saw the familiar pair in the carriage.

There were two people coming and two people leaving, not one less.

"Teacher Xue Nuo, I've already told you that I've recovered a long time ago. I don't need any help..."

"There's no point in arguing. Your Qi and blood are depleted, so don't overwork yourself. You're the apprentice, and I'm the mentor. This little thing doesn't matter."

Although Roy wanted to complain that ordinary master and apprentice would not be so intimate, Jon Snow forcefully held his arm as he spoke, leaving him no room to refuse, as if he was afraid that he would suffer another accident.

Roy inexplicably felt the absurdity of being tightly controlled by a domineering female CEO, and he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

However, to outsiders, this action looked more like the cold-faced girl grabbing her lover forcefully without any explanation and refusing to let go.

People who wear gossip glasses see gossip in everything. Some little girls in the cafeteria have started screaming, and some teachers have even exclaimed that the job was well done.

"Tsk tsk tsk, a handsome black-haired boy and a beautiful silver-haired girl. Looking at it this way, my little brother is actually quite a match for your cousin!"

Colleagues gathered around Winter, patting him on the shoulders and laughing.

Winter gave a forced smile but clenched his fists tightly, falling into great confusion and anger.

Why is he still alive?

Why did he and Jon Snow get closer than when they first set out?

What exactly is going on? !

----------

"That's what it is, anyway."

After returning and recuperating for a few days, Roy came to the dean's office and reported to the Sage about his trip to Yangyan Valley.

Even a Sage was slightly surprised when he heard the cultists were acting together. He took a sip of hot tea and sighed, "Too many people would mobilize four priests and one high priest just for a low-sequence figure. This is something Rowling didn't even get back then."

"Only a fool would want this kind of treatment!" Roy also took a sip of tea, but then frowned slightly.

Why is this tea so sweet? If this old man drank this every day, he would have had diabetes in his previous life...

Maybe the strong just like to be different.

Booker picked up another piece and put it in his mouth, revealing a look of enjoyment. He jokingly said, "Look at it from a positive perspective. This means that you have posed an unprecedented threat to them, so they have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."

"Fortunately, you have now acquired the power of [Phoenix Princess], so there is no need to go out for the time being."

Booker glanced over, a look of relief and warmth in his old eyes, which made Roy feel a little uneasy.

I seem to have the charm to turn lesbians straight, but I don't want to turn straight men gay.

Noticing that the boy's expression was becoming increasingly unsettled, the old man smiled and looked away.

"As long as you're in the academy, they won't dare to attack you. Even if they temporarily bewitched a guy like Enwei, they wouldn't be able to pose any threat to you."

"...You must have known that there was something wrong with Enwei a long time ago, right?" Roy asked suspiciously.

"Haha, for you, that level is not a problem. If a problem really occurs at that time, I will make it so that it won't be a problem for him." Booker held his beard, his eyes were deep, and his words were calm and light, revealing his confidence that he regarded the other party as an ant.

But Roy couldn't help but complain, "So there's still no news about the mole?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the old man's expression instantly fell. He looked away and muttered something like "Fang Changxin is fishing for a big fish" and "The water is deep here".

Well, anyway, there is no progress.

Roy was almost used to the other party's Schrödinger-like reliability.

In fact, high-level extraordinary people are not omnipotent, especially those who hold high positions. Instead, there will be various restrictions on what they do. Roy can understand this.

Roy had personally interrogated Enci at that time and was sure that the other party did not know the true identity of the traitor.

Previously, he had set up a barrier to conceal the aura of the false king's blood, allowing him to operate as the Sword Ghost. This time, he had given me clues about the Phoenix Princess and strongly recommended that I bring Jon Snow with me. The Dean had been quite helpful indeed.

"But I really don't understand why there are always idiots willing to join forces with cultists." Roy thought of the Lionheart Prince and shook his head.

Even if you can gain temporary power, even if you are good at political tactics, if you want to control a group of lunatics who believe in evil gods, you will only end up playing with fire and getting burned.

Upon hearing this, the old man's face flashed with a trace of deep helplessness: "For many people, distinguishing right from wrong is a luxury."

"People's hearts are different. The difference between people is sometimes as big as that between a mermaid goblin. It has been like this since ancient times." Beneath the slightly humorous words, there was a hint of self-mockery directed at someone unknown.

Roy was very familiar with the history of the Third Era. It was said that the overall combat power of humans at that time was not much inferior to that of the demons.

However, in the early stages of the war, the human forces ignored the powerful enemy and fought on their own, with many conflicts. In the end, they missed the initiative and were severely damaged by the demons, causing the entire human race to pay a heavy price.

How could a few words in a textbook fully describe the tragic situation at that time?

I think that as a witness of that era, the [Sage] must have seen a lot of the absurdity and ugliness of human nature.

"However, fortunately, while there are ugly and despicable villains who have sunk into evil ways, there are also outstanding young people who remain true to their original intentions." As the old man spoke, he looked straight at him with a faint warmth and hope. "With people like these, humanity still has a future."

In response, Roy just smiled calmly: "I am only doing this for myself and the people I cherish."

Humanity, the world, hope, heroes. These grand and ethereal things seemed too far away. Roy only wanted to do his best in the present and protect the people around him. That was all.

The old man raised his eyebrows and said playfully, "Perhaps this is the original intention of a hero, isn't it?"

Chapter 76 The other side of Mr. Snow

Now that I have obtained the final certificate of the king, all I have to do next is to stay in the academy and develop safely under his protection.

Once I have gained enough power, it's time to settle accounts with those damn cultists.

However, he still had one thing to worry about.

"By the way, how is Mr. Snow recovering?"

Jon Snow had concealed it well along the way, but Roy still sensed a slight agitation in her blood.

This was no surprise. The unholy flames of [Eyes of Burning Flame] were a natural enemy to ice-type transcendents. After being struck by that flame, he went on a killing spree against the cultists, activating his bloodline with all his might. It was impossible for him to avoid any consequences.

Especially since Jon Snow did not advance by taking the family potion, his foundation is unstable and his bloodline is more easily affected by the power of evil gods than that of ordinary extraordinary people.

"Don't worry. I've already purified the evil god's fire from her body. However, she over-mobilized her bloodline in this battle, so she'll inevitably suffer some backlash. She needs to take her potions regularly and rest for a while."

Jon Snow has been staying indoors these days and has not summoned me.

Now that he heard the Sage say that there was nothing serious, Roy was completely relieved.

Unexpectedly, the old man suddenly smiled and said: "Actually, if you really care, you might as well go and visit him directly."

"Hey, where's the rest you promised?"

The old man shrugged and said in a matter-of-fact tone, "It's not really a disturbance for relatives and friends to visit."

"Besides, that child doesn't have many friends to begin with, and doesn't have a good relationship with Emoji. It's inevitable that he'll be lonely recuperating alone in bed, right?"

Although I sensed that the dean was instigating something, his words made sense.

It was because of me that Jon Snow was injured, and he took good care of me all the way.

After hearing what the Sage said, Roy felt even more guilty and immediately decided to visit Jon Snow to see how she was recovering.

That afternoon, Roy came to the teachers' apartment, went up to the third floor unhindered, and knocked on the door of Jon Snow's room.

Roy used to come here to help Jon Snow with his work or receive tutoring, so he was quite familiar with the place.

However, the door did not open within five seconds as usual, and I saw the cold-looking figure.

Did he go out?

Roy scratched his head and was about to turn and leave when he heard a flurry of footsteps, a loud bang, and the panicked barking of the silver wolf [Xiaobai] in the room.

Could something have happened to Teacher Jon Snow?

Without thinking too much, Roy relied on his extraordinary physical fitness to kick open the door and rushed in.

"Teacher Snow! Are you okay...?!"

In front of the entrance, a girl with disheveled silver hair sat slumped beside the room, wearing only a loose beige nightgown. Her fair skin, which was always hidden under the long dress, was now exposed in a large area, shining brightly in the dim room, so white that it was blinding.

The slightly bulged chest, the slightly flushed face, the thin lips that gently let out a gasp, and the strange sense of weakness on her face made her look even more delicate and sentimental.

It seems like I came at the wrong time!

Roy hurriedly covered his eyes, but immediately realized that his mentor should not show such a weak and powerless expression, and hurried forward to check the situation.

"I, I'm fine..."

The silver-haired girl held onto the wall and stood up hastily, but her foot slipped and she almost fell again. Fortunately, Roy was quick to catch her.

"Nothing? You don't look okay at all!" Looking at the girl in his arms, whose breath was disordered, Roy's face turned serious: "I'm sorry!"

"I told you...it's okay..."

Ignoring Jon Snow's weak push, Roy pushed her against the wall with one hand and pressed his other hand against her forehead.

Ordinary people will have a fever when they are sick.

However, when the blood of an ice-type extraordinary person is disordered, the body temperature will drop sharply.

Roy was startled by the biting coldness in his palm.

You know, he now has the blessing of [avoiding the cold].
