Chapter 48 – The Real Hero Protects (2/2)

“I don’t care! I don’t care how many Jackalweres there are. I must save Elena!” Lin Xiao clenched his fists and glared at them, revealing a fierce expression he had never shown before. “What kind of man am I, if I can’t even protect my maid?”

“…” Hearing that last sentence, it was as if Caesar was struck by lightning, and something struck one of Caesar’s sensitive spots.

A few days ago, because of his negligence, Rosie was taken away by the Jackalwere. If not for Lin Xiao coincidentally saving her, the consequences would be disastrous.

At that time, a deep sense of powerlessness and a strong sense of humiliation filled Caesar’s brain. Why, why was he so weak? He was a man who wanted to be a hero, why couldn’t he even protect a woman? Caesar asked himself over and over again.

If something happened to Rosie that day, he would have regretted it for life. Therefore, he fully understood Lin Xiao’s madness and determination. Lin Xiao’s heart was full of unwillingness and anger. He felt the same way.

What should he do? Should he watch this tragedy repeat with Lin Xiao? Was he, Caesar Alex, the man who will become the hero, fall back here?

Last time he was alone, he could only kneel on the ground like a maggot, praying for a miracle when he faced the cruel reality that Rosie was taken away by the Jackalwere.

But this time was different! This time he was no longer alone, he had companions and teammates!

He, Caesar Alex, he was Lin Xiao’s companion, and Lin Xiao was also his teammate! Both of them can definitely create a miracle!

“Lin Xiao, I’m going with you to save her.” He did not scream excitedly, there was also no exaggeration, Caesar simply stated something.

“Okay.” Lin Xiao nodded with satisfaction and did not say anything extra.

At this moment, the two youth were opposite of each other, and they saw the same obsession in each other’s eyes.

Is only the strongest person qualified to be the hero? No, it should be protection! —— Put your life on the line and use a lifetime to protect the things you cherish. If you can do that, everyone is a hero!

And Elena, was she the treasure that Lin Xiao pledged his life to protect? Caesar thought.

If that’s the case, he doesn’t mind going with Lin Xiao to hell and back!

“You better not die! We still have a duel.” Caesar said quietly.

“Ah, rest assured, I will never die in front of you. You, on the other hand, have an injured arm, you have to be careful.”

“Hmph, don’t worry about me, just don’t drag me down later!”

“Don’t talk big, dear prince.”

Finally, Rosie on the side couldn’t stand it anymore.

“Hey… you two big fools, why did you reach a common understanding like this?” She scolded angrily.

“Missy, don’t force yourself, take the map back and go meet up with teacher Woos.” Lin Xiao smiled and handed the map of the wolf skin to Rosie. “I also left the same map for teacher Woos, he’ll probably find us tomorrow morning.”

“You, what do you mean?” Rosie took the map and her hands were slightly trembling.

“If anything happens to us, you have to remember to help collect our corpses.” Lin Xiao said lightly.

“Wuuu… you idiot! Why do you think of me as someone afraid of death?” Rosie angrily rolled the wolf skin into a ball and threw it at Lin Xiao’s face. “Peh! Isn’t it just a few Jackalweres? I’m not scared at all!”

“Rosie, you don’t have to take risks with us. Elena is my maid. Her life has nothing to do with you…”

“What do you mean yours and mine? Hmph, too bad I was stupid enough to join your team, right?” Rosie turned her head, crossed her arms and didn’t look at him. “Our team is four people, not three people! One less will not work!”

“Rosie, you…”

“Don’t misunderstand. I just said that I was going to go with you. I’ll definitely be the first to run away when it gets dangerous!” Rosie said with a grin.

“Hehe, can’t you just be frank? My dear Missy…” Lin Xiao bitterly smiled and whispered, “Sorry, I’m troubling you guys.”

“What are you saying? Elena is also my teammate, isn’t it normal to save her?” Rosie rebuked and shook her finger in front of Lin Xiao, “Lin Xiao, take out some confidence! We are the strongest students in the Magic Department at Loran Academy, we’ll be able to kill the Jackalwere leader and save Elena!”

“That’s right, you’re right! We definitely can!”

“But there’s only one S-level evaluation.” Caesar followed up at an inappropriate time. He clenched his broadsword and put his right hand on his injured left arm. “Lin Xiao, I will not give up the credit for that, the Jackalwere leader is mine!”

“Hehe, that’ll depend on your ability.”

The dark red six-pointed star array was formed in Lin Xiao’s hand.

“Let’s go!”
