So, just look down an inch and you'll be able to...

Boom boom boom!

A gentle and regular knock on the door came, but it still seemed particularly harsh in this atmosphere.

The originally ambiguous atmosphere suddenly disappeared. Hyde's right hand slipped and he almost lost his balance and fell down.

The puppet looked at him with a half-smile, its fingers pointing upward along the collarbone to his Adam's apple.

"You can go on, I don't mind."

Boom boom boom!

There was another continuous knock on the door. The people outside who were knocking on the door must not know why the ward was suddenly locked.

"Miss Shadow, are you awake? Is anyone else in there?"

After listening for a few seconds, Shadow frowned slightly and recalled for a few seconds.

"Who is this... Oh, I remembered it. It seems to be the nurse witch in the infirmary. I can also feel the outside world while I am sleeping. It seems that she helped me change my clothes yesterday."

Although the puppet lay obediently on the bed, its hands were not honest at all.

Her deliberately lowered voice was hoarse and lazy, mixed with an irresistible temptation.

"Do you like this kind of tense atmosphere that can be broken at any time? I remember it was mentioned in the book that there are people like this, with strange habits... But if you like it, I don't care."

Hyde's face changed again and again, his facial muscles twitched, twisted blood vessels loomed on his forehead.

He left the hospital bed without saying a last word and stood firm on the ground.He pulled a blanket and wrapped it up tightly, leaving only one head outside.

He took a few heavy breaths to calm his breathing and heartbeat, and then checked his clothes up and down again to see if there was anything messy.

After noticing something unavoidable, he was stunned for a second, then took his large wizard robe from the hanger and carefully closed each copper button.

After finishing all this, he turned back to glare and opened the wooden door before the third knock on the door.

Standing in front of the wooden door was the nurse witch who had been sleeping in the corner of the living room. She wore a pair of round glasses as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle, and her hair was messy and she looked sleepy.

The witch raised her hand for the third time to knock on the door, and was startled by the wooden door that suddenly opened.

"You are—ah, Your Excellency, Executive Officer of Belusai. I am looking for you. Mr. Principal needs you to go there immediately. They failed to find you in the executive officer's office and your private residence, Murphy Miss Sturt reckons you might come to this place."

"Well, thanks, I already know."

"Anything else?"

In the eyes of Witch Roti, the executive in front of her looked a little strange.He only opened the wooden door halfway and had no intention of letting himself in.

In addition, the dress is a bit too formal, especially in such a weather that does not even need to light the fireplace, it may be too hot to wear thick uniform robes indoors.

However, everyone’s habits are different, so this is not something you need to pay special attention to.

But considering her responsibilities, in principle, visitors who enter the infirmary to visit patients still need to go through her registration, so Rorty added:

"Let me take the liberty to ask, when did you—"

As she said this, she felt an electric current flowing through her brain and her thoughts immediately became clear. In just a few seconds, she seemed to suddenly understand something.

For Kraft's students and even some janitors, the relationship between the acting executive officer and that Miss Shadow is no secret.

Since Miss Shadow was injured and unconscious, it is not too strange that the other party would come to visit at this time. Thinking of the other party's overly formal attire, the original appearance of the matter was probably restored in Rorty's mind.

"I'm sorry, I was rude!"

"But the patient's recovery requires rest, and I hope you will not disturb her when you visit."

The witch who suffered from severe myopia wanted to take a peek at the scene in the room, but was blocked by the other party, so she could only bow quickly and trot away.

"I think there is no need to hide it anymore. Your reaction is really terrible. No matter how stupid you are, you can figure out what you are hiding in the room. It's better to just use mental suggestion to make her forget everything she saw. It’s a little easier, although it’s not necessary.”

Shadow had already untied the blanket and covered most of his body with the loose hospital gown again. However, the button on the chest broke and had to be tightened with one to hold it in place.

She looked at the boy sitting on the edge of the bed with his head down and raised his eyebrows.

"Aren't you going to continue? I have to say it in advance. It was just an impulse on my part. I will think of other ways to leave a deep enough mark on you as a human being, so... there may not be a second time in the future. "

Hyde smiled and shook his head.

"Let's talk about it later. I have the patience to wait until you show interest again."

"Dmitri should have something important to discuss with me. I plan to go to his principal's office first."

"and many more."

Shadow stopped him.

"I've probably guessed what's going on. Get the clothes on the shelf for me and I'll go with you."

Hyde went to the black dress on the hanger, then turned to look at the oil painting hanging in the room.Although we have had the most intimate contact, the politeness and habits we should have remain unchanged.

"By the way, does that hospital gown need to be dealt with?"

He said this, intending to destroy the stolen goods without leaving any evidence of his own ugliness.

The doll who was putting stockings on his calves was stunned for a moment, then refused with a wicked smile.

"No, don't even think about it. I plan to keep it as a collection forever."

Chapter 36 Firewood

The design in front of the principal's office is slightly different from the past. The statues of angels pouring holy water on both sides of the door have been replaced with two stone flower beds.

The wind chimes originally installed according to Kleist's preferences have been removed. The old alchemist does not have the elegant hobbies of the former. For him, a quiet place without being disturbed is much more important.

When Hyde pushed open the wooden door, he found that several people were already waiting in the principal's room.

Demetrius Dalton is clad in a pure white functional wizard robe, which is quite a design and quality for most alchemists and apothecaries.The property of being able to isolate part of the magic power can also provide a layer of protection for wizards in experiments, so that they will not come into direct contact with harmful substances.

But the old alchemist's appearance was somewhat nondescript. In addition to this robe, he also had a thick metal plate tied to his chest with a strong chain like a cavalryman on horseback.

It was as if what the old man was about to face next was not an alchemy experiment or a conclusion explanation, but a brutal city defense battle.What he needs to resist is not the corrosive liquid or the poisonous gas in the alchemy pot, but the steel crossbow shells that can be fired from the front at any time.

"Here you are, Teacher Belusa."

Dandelai bowed to him politely. The wizard apprentice's dress was similar to Dmitri's, even more exaggerated.She wears a half-mask with a design similar to the covered helmet of the Blood Knight, and the vital parts of her body are also covered with thin mithril armor modified according to the habits of wizards.

Judging from the pattern and unique artistic design, its predecessor is indeed closely related to the bloody nobles of Nod.

This modified mithril armor leaf is the legacy of Enoch City. The ruined city after the Flood is still under the protection of the Alliance. These secrets that belonged to the dirty blood race in the past were discovered by Duncan Colery. The magic share becomes one of the wizards' mastery and wealth.

Although the magic apprentice accepted that he succeeded Ella, he insisted that he would not use the more affectionate title of "teacher".Hyde didn't care about this, and was even a little inexplicably happy, which at least meant that Miss Dandelai would not forget her original teacher easily.

Ling nodded in the direction they were in, as a greeting.And Fred Mephisto was standing not far from her.

Roger Dmitri squatted in the corner of the room, keeping a considerable distance from his father, who disliked each other.

The one who occupied the largest space in the room was Adolf, who was as tall as a giant. Whether it was due to an illusion, Hyde always felt that this professor seemed to be getting taller and taller than when he was a student.

He spoke first, and his tone seemed a little impatient.

"Professor Dmitri, you have been unwilling to disclose the content of this meeting before. Now that everyone is here, can we start?"

He doesn't have much time to stay in Kraft now. As a veteran and powerful wizard, Adolf has been following the traces of the apostle in the outside world recently.No one would be in a good mood to receive an urgent notification on a rare day when they could take a break.

"Of course, little Adolf... Oh, my God, you are not young at all now. Well, now that everyone is here, let's get down to business."

Dmitry's forbidden magic cloth on the alchemy table now exposed his golden torso.

It was the incomplete remains of two different characteristics, plant and human.It is completely missing from the chest to the waist down, and parts of its head and arms are also mutilated.

The completely impossible-to-piece-together golden body parts and bone fragments were placed in cone-shaped glass vessels not far from the main body. The whole thing looked like a strange piece of art that had been smashed.

"This is--"

Hyde's pupils narrowed slightly. This was undoubtedly the half of the prophet's remains that he snatched from under the ruins of the church.Although the new clothes laid out by the Forbidden Demon had already made him guess, the scene in front of him was still beyond Hyde's imagination.

"Is this the remains of the prophet? I remember when I snatched it back, it didn't seem to be so broken, right?"

Dmitry coughed awkwardly and didn't answer the question directly.

"Just last night, I analyzed the relic with the help of Miss Dandelay and that stupid son-I just came to the conclusion that it exists in a very strange way, so I have had contact with that power experience so I can be sure..."

The alchemist's old face showed a frightened and fanatical expression,

"Its way of existence is very similar to "divinity", it is not a crystallization, but a further essence. "

"Through this wonderful wreck that exists both in physical form and at the same time represents the rules themselves, we have a chance to touch the forbidden truth."

"I can't describe that feeling, because it is the miracle itself. It is a door, the mystery of the divine is almost completely open to us, and the only limit to our access to knowledge is the narrow vision of mortals!"

Fred interrupted his feverish speech,

"However, Albert Kleist obtained this holy skeleton many years ago, so he should have enough time to explore the secret."

"Because he's an arrogant and mean fool!"

Dmitry growled,

"A person like him will definitely believe in his own magic power and eyes. He thinks he has mastered everything but actually missed the most valuable thing! Even if he lives for another 100 years, he will definitely not dare to take the initiative to damage With this saint’s remains, explore the truth hidden beneath the skin!”

Did you take the initiative to incise these wounds and missing limbs?

Hyde couldn't help cursing in his heart.

There is probably no alchemist crazier than Demetrius in the world - no, Dendre Svenisti Magellan and Roger... who are willing to help in this matter Dalton is equally crazy.

He pointed to his missing ear. The wound was extremely smooth, with only a thin layer of scab. It could be seen that it should have been injured not long ago.

"Its segmentation work is quite dangerous, and I can only touch the relatively safe area below the skin, but even such a twisted node still sent half of my ear to unknown time and space."

"The holy bones are assembled in an extremely wonderful way. It is almost inseparable. Even if it is contained in a special container by me now, the connection between its fragments and the main body is still inseparable. Even if you use your power to remove the container Even if a corner of it is completely sealed or destroyed, it will still reunite with the subject because of a word, a thought, or even for reasons and methods unknown to us.”

"But even so, I still gained quite valuable knowledge."

Dmitry paused, and said in a strange tone like reciting scriptures:

“The soul is the tree and humanity is the firewood.”
