Natalie's magical growth record

Chapter 362 Tips on playing cards that don’t follow common sense

"Senior, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this sentence?"

Noticing Alina's abnormality, Ives wanted to turn a blind eye to it, but because he remembered his own experience, he finally did not let go of this detail, and asked seemingly casually.

Yes, he had heard similar words from the Wind Commissioner, the "hypocritical" cornerstone of the "Sky Scholar". If Lord Ovid only said these words to him, he wouldn't need to care about it, but combined with the reaction of Suzuran senior, this possibility is very low.

I did it because of Commissioner Inzat and the ‘Sky Witness’, so why was Senior Suzuki Lan touched by these words?

Thinking of this, Avis couldn't help but adjust his expression to make it look solemn, and repeated his previous question again.

"Avis, is this not the first time you have heard these words from Lord Ovid?"

One word, and Avis's determined heart was shaken again.

"I know you have a lot of questions to ask, and you don't want to be shut out by us." As if he had seen through his inner thoughts, the senior gave a symbolic word of relief, and then changed the subject, " But after what happened in Celia Town, you should know better than me that you are not qualified to intervene in these matters now. Of course, if you definitely want to intervene, I will not stop you. However, after that , it is difficult for me to guarantee whether you can have the same 'lucky' as the 'Astrology Tutor' or me."

When he said the word 'lucky', Ives could clearly feel the irony in the words of the senior in front of him.

Yes, he understands the truth, but to be fair, if more things like the fog incident in Selia Town happen in the future, can he really stand by and watch?
  Can't and won't!

So, after a brief setback, Ives regained his confidence as the first sage assistant in the North District of Water, and said unswervingly: "Even if I don't have your kind of 'lucky', I can still I will go all out, this is my responsibility, and it is my unquestionable obligation!"

"Hahahaha, Ives, I really didn't expect that one day I would see you showing such a high-sounding determination. Fortunately, fortunately, only I heard these words. If those guys from the 'Sky Scholars' heard them, maybe You will be deprived of even the qualification to participate in superficial actions!"

Unexpectedly, his solemn appearance not only failed to get the respect he deserved, but also attracted unbridled laughter from the seniors on the grass.

"Senior, is my determination funny?"

After waiting quietly for a while, he found that the other party still didn't seem to stop laughing. Ives couldn't help but frown slightly and asked in an unpleasant tone.

"No, your determination is not funny, I just," glanced at the serious-looking junior, and Alina, who was reminded of some past memories, paused immediately, and then changed the subject nonchalantly, "Forget it. It’s nothing, let’s continue the previous topic. Now that the altar at the bottom of the lake has been dealt with by Lord Ovid, what we have left to solve is the impact of Samael’s legacy on the small town of Selia.”

"Samael..."

Seeing that the senior didn't seem to have any intention of staying on the previous topic, Ives still knew enough not to ask any further questions. Instead, with some disbelief, he once again confirmed the key words he heard to the people next to him.

"Yes, Samael, the evil spirit that was once sealed in the town of Selia by the Earth Sage, is also one of the culprits that caused the abnormal fog in the town of Selia." After saying this, the young man found that it was still a bit unbelievable. With such a look, Alina couldn't help but slightly twitching the corners of her mouth, smiling meaningfully and asking, "How is it, has your curiosity been satisfied?"

"Yes, thank you senior for informing me."

Without thinking too much about the hidden meaning behind the other person's smile, Ives, who felt he owed a lot to this senior, finally followed his heart and sincerely thanked him.

"So, now that your curiosity has been satisfied, as the only useful sage assistant in Celia Town, shouldn't you do something practical? After all, we have lost track of Samael. , if we don’t do something, it will be easy to leave some bad impressions on the ‘Sky Scholars’, isn’t it?”    Who knows, before such sincerity has time to take hold, Ives’s ears are ringing with belongings belonging to Senior's words are natural but cannot be rejected.

I really shouldn’t have expectations for seniors!
  Therefore, after his smile froze for a moment, Avis could only force himself to put away his unnecessary thoughts and turn all his emotions into a silent nod.

Of course, calling it a compromise, he would not make his compromise appear so ineffective.

Therefore, after confirming that the senior in front of him did not assign more tasks to him, Avis immediately seized the opportunity and solemnly asked for advice: "Excuse me, senior, apart from those assigned by Lord Ovid before, I What else needs to be done?”

"I believe you are not unclear about the answer to this question."

Looking at the young man who asked this question with some surprise, Alina quickly calmed down her surprised expression and answered the other person's probing question quite calmly.

"Indeed, I do have some plans." Finding that the senior did not seem to be shaken, Ives couldn't help but be stunned again, and then put on a gentle smile and said proactively as if nothing had happened, "For example, the superficial purification operation , can we add some links to make the work done on the surface less important.”

"Can you tell me why?"

"this…"

Seeing the senior asking, Avis couldn't help but smile guiltily, because he could think so not because of the fog, but because he remembered that he had made similar suggestions before they came to Selia Town. .

It's a pity that he didn't think much about it at that time, but now that he thinks about it, he regrets doing so. At least if there was no answer that day, I might have an extra trump card when facing this senior today...

"I know what you are thinking, but now that you understand it, why do you continue to waste time here?"

As if she had seen through his mind, Alina, who originally wanted to end the conversation directly, finally changed her mind and unceremoniously increased the tone of her rhetorical questions.

"Okay, please take care of yourself."

So Ives, who didn't get any benefits, had no choice but to put away his unnecessary thoughts and seriously think about solutions other than purification...

"If purification requires manpower, you can ask Sally to help,"

Realizing that the young man really didn't want to ask anymore, Alina couldn't help but sigh slightly and unexpectedly gave a hint.

"Senior Salister? She..."

Ives was wary for a while, but then realized that this senior didn't seem to be worried about the so-called trust issue. He had no choice but to put away his unnecessary thoughts and changed his words to thank him, "It's nothing. Thank you for your advice."
