Chapter 319 (1/2)
For his Royal Highness's ”affectionate confession”, Loren didn't pay attention to it at all, and even lazily dealt with it, ”grateful tears” to show his loyalty.
When he was in eboden, he saw the speed of Brandon's face changing. He was a liar who was not under himself or even beyond himself. It was really stupid to be serious.
Rather, if he did, Brandon would be more distrustful of himself.
The tacit understanding between the two sides is partly based on trust and more on interests - Brandon needs a skilled and trusted ”Wizard consultant”; Loren needs to get the ”shelter” of his prince status, bring all kinds of convenience, and the agreed title that makes the night watchman no longer easy to do it on his own.
The more suspicious people are, the more expensive the price of loyalty is. Human nature is so sad.
Trust is really a luxury.
”Just one day?!”
The little wizard lying at the table screamed. His pale expression was like hearing the bad news. He rushed in front of Lauren, and a ”stubborn” hair stood up directly on his head.
”Er... That's right. We have to start tomorrow morning.” the dark haired wizard, who didn't know how to answer, scratched his head and pulled the corners of his mouth: ”I was really going to stay for three days, but... There was some accident.”
”Well... I see.” Ayn murmured slowly back to her seat, and the word disappointment was written directly on her face.
”Sorry, this is not what I can decide, if I can...”
”It doesn't matter, I can understand.” although still a little lost, the little wizard managed to squeeze out a smile and shook his head ”indifferently”:
”We're going to duanjieshan fortress, aren't we? We can't waste too much time in such a place, and winter is coming.”
Looking at Ayn's smile full of understanding, disappointment but still indifference, Loren was a little depressed - those words he was going to use to persuade the little wizard were comforted by her.
The two men seemed to fall into silence at the same time.
”Er... That...” seemed to be some kind of instinct, trying to break this embarrassing Lorraine's hesitation, but suddenly found that he had nothing to say: ”I want to say...”
”Poof -” the little wizard laughed at once.
”Sorry, but I haven't said it yet. Can you laugh when you're finished?”
”Well, I don't blame you.” gently holding the black haired wizard's hands, Ayn's eyes narrowed into crescent moon, and a faint smile came up at the corner of her mouth:
”Let's say something happy. Is your sword still there?”
”The sword?”
”Bright silver, our common achievement.” the little wizard blinked: ”remember how we finished it?”
”Of course, Isaac proposed a new rune construction equation - but in fact, he failed in the end. The person who really completed the last step was dean Peter.” Loren didn't forget to remind: ”Oh, by the way, don't tell Isaac about it.”
”No, he found it himself!” it seems that every time Isaac is mentioned, the little wizard's face will show some helpless and tangled expressions:
”In a word, although we completed it at the beginning, in fact, the structure is very unstable - it can only last for about ten seconds at most, and then it will enter the cooling state; it will consume a lot of energy and load seriously every time it is used again.”
”But that's perfect. Really, I've been saved by it more than once.”
Shrugging his shoulders, the black haired wizard said with some emotion: ”and didn't Isaac say it himself? The power of the void is difficult to be stabilized, so...”
