Wizard Immortal

Chapter 309 Innocence

"Name: Andak. Strength: 8.7. Agility: 7.2. Constitution: 8.5. Mental Strength: 2.1. Condition: Good."

The familiar attribute panel appeared before Adir's eyes.

Standing before him, watching Andak and Tama's figures gradually disappear into the distance, Adir mused, "A top-tier Grand Knight."

"It seems like all the attacks lately have been happening outside the academy."

"By calling Tama out at this time, are you truly unaware of anything, or are you doing it on purpose?"

He stood there, lost in thought.

There are clearly significant problems with the other party.

At the very least, the fact that the other party clearly possesses the power of a top-tier Grand Knight, yet chooses to pretend to be an ordinary minor nobleman, is itself highly suspicious.

Of course, this alone doesn't prove anything. After all, whether in Adir's previous life or this world, there are many stories of minor nobles encountering extraordinary events and rising to the pinnacle of life.

During their brief encounter, through the powerful senses of natural perception, Adir clearly sensed a faint killing intent emanating from the other party's heart.

This is quite interesting; almost instantly, he amplified his suspicion to the extreme, making it impossible for Adir to ignore it even if he wanted to.

"Looks like things will be a bit tougher lately."

As he walked into the room inside the clinic and looked at the dozen or so wounded soldiers lying quietly inside, this thought flashed through Adir's mind.

"Yana, are you really going to that ball with Andak?"

On the other side, in a small room, a voice echoed from the same spot.

Sitting in the room, a girl with dyed red hair looked at Tama beside her, hesitant to speak: "Are you really not going to reconsider?"

"There's nothing to think about." Sitting in the room, Tama shook her head. Although her face was a little flushed, her tone was firm: "We've been together for four years. I'm ready to give myself to him a long time ago."

"What's so good about him?" The red-haired girl frowned. "A minor nobleman from the countryside, what else does he have besides being good-looking and able to play the piano? Compared to Doctor Adir, he's nothing."

"You need to think this through." She looked at Tama in front of her and said solemnly, "In this world, only knights are true nobles. What use is it if someone is good-looking or plays the piano well? Any knight can kill them openly and without paying any compensation."

She looked at Tama in front of her and tried to persuade her with earnest words, hoping to change her mind.

"Alice, you don't need to persuade me anymore. I've thought about all these issues."

Sitting opposite the girl in red, Tama calmly shook her head: "Andak's conditions are actually not bad. Although he is just a minor nobleman, he is the eldest son of the family and can inherit the family's title in the future. Living a peaceful life is not a problem."

"Moreover, even if I were willing to agree, Mr. Adir might not actually be willing."

She spoke quietly, her expression calm: "I can sense that Mr. Adir doesn't really care about me as much as Andak. Even if I were willing to marry him, he might not be willing to marry me."

"It's better to stay like this than to be embarrassed later," she said with a smile, seemingly quite satisfied.

"Sigh..." Looking at Tama's appearance, Alice sighed and did not continue to persuade her.

"If you knew how cruel the outside world is, perhaps you wouldn't think this way," she sighed inwardly, sitting beside Tamma.

This world is far more cruel than people imagine.

As a member of a branch of a knightly family, she had witnessed many tragic scenes before entering Maran Academy.

Outside the capital, large numbers of people are being slaughtered by hordes of monsters. Without the protection of knights, ordinary people are at risk of being dragged away by wild beasts and thieves just by walking in the wilderness.

Within the knight's territory, the knight's power is supreme; sometimes, a mere glance can lead to the extermination of a family.

In a small town, Alice once witnessed a scene.

There was a nobleman whose wife and daughter were very beautiful. One day, while they were out, they were spotted by a passing knight.

The knight didn't do much, he just glanced at the mother and daughter. That very night, the mother and daughter were brought to the knight's bed, personally by the noble family.

Several days later, the knight left, but the mother and daughter had already turned into cold corpses, lying in the sewage, and no one dared to come and collect them.

Before entering Maran Academy, Alice herself had seen countless similar incidents.

But she couldn't tell Tama about these harsh realities.

The other person is different from her.

Although Tama is an illegitimate child, her father is a true Sky Knight. Although he doesn't value her much, a little care from him is enough to ensure she lives a peaceful life.

Although she had no father by her side, she had never lacked food or clothing since childhood, and easily entered Maran Academy to study, easily achieving a goal that countless people dream of but cannot reach.

Even after her father died, Adir came to Maran Academy to take care of her personally. Any obstacles and difficulties that others might encounter would simply disappear in front of her.

Living under such carefree conditions, it's hard to understand what the cruelty of reality is.

Thinking of this, Alice couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Although she didn't say it out loud, she secretly envied Tama's environment.

Not everyone can have a father who is a Sky Knight, and also have a knight genius like Adir, who is proficient in medicine, taking care of them personally.

"I'll go to the dance with you in a few days."

Sitting across from Tama, with many thoughts racing through her mind, Alice finally spoke.

"Okay." Tama didn't think much of it and nodded with a smile.

Several days passed quickly.

Several days later, several branches of Maran Academy began their holidays, and many students who were originally studying there left the academy.

For a time, outside the gates of Maran Academy, ornately decorated carriages were everywhere, and students dressed in finery and exuding an extraordinary aura were moving about, each led out by their respective servants.

Blending into the crowd, Andak and his companions were completely inconspicuous.

They were also traveling in a carriage, with a coachman dressed in a black robe leading the way.

Inside the spacious carriage, several other people were also seated. Besides Andak, Tama, and Alice, there were three others, all discussing recent events at the academy.
