"Sorry, sorry."

Gu Mi placed his hand across his nose, took a deep breath, and sucked back all the emotions and tears that were spreading throughout him. Then he stood up and apologized to the teachers and seniors present.

"I said so much without thinking about it and brought my own emotions to everyone. I am really sorry."

"It's okay, sit down."

Celia waved to her disciples and ordered Gu Mi to sit down.

"I chose this place because, besides having dinner together, I have something else to tell you."

After receiving instructions from the teacher, Gu Ya bowed to everyone again before sitting down.

But just as he sat down, he felt the senior brother next to him touching him.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

Gu Ya asked Gu Te in a low voice.

"Don't rush back after the dinner. Come with me to the night market. There's a festival tonight, so it's going to be very lively there, and there's lots of delicious food."

"Really, Brother? It's a deal!"

Looking at the little finger that his junior sister Gu Mi stretched out to him, Gut was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and stretched out his little finger as well, and the two little fingers were hooked together.

"It's a word."

On the side, Celie silently watched the disciples' little movements below, tapped the table with her fingers a few times, and waited until they finished talking before continuing her speech.

"The first magician assessment organized by the Continental Magic Association at the Oissast branch officially concluded today."

"Tomorrow, I'll take Gut out of the city and head to the association's designated headquarters, the Holy City—Xutralu, to hold another assessment. We'll stay there for a while and probably won't be back until next year."

"Ok?"

For a moment, except for Gut who had expected it, Gu Mi and Lyon were both quite shocked.

Although everyone knew that the teacher was going to the Holy City to organize another magician assessment, no one expected the teacher to leave so suddenly, nor did they expect the teacher to be away for such a long time.

"During this time, Lyon, Gu Mi, the two of you will stay in the city of Oisaster."

"Although the magician assessment has concluded, the construction of the association's branch here has not yet been fully completed. Therefore, I need the two of you to stay here and represent the association to assist and supervise the remaining construction work."

"I understand, teacher."

Lyon nodded in response.

"Teacher, remember to come back early. I will miss you and my senior brother."

Compared to her senior brother who was not good at dealing with people, Gu Mi not only accepted the teacher's task, but also expressed her concern.

Whether this concern is a parting courtesy or a true expression of feelings, it warms the heart.

And from the sincere expression of his junior sister, Gu Te was more convinced that this was her true feelings.

Afterwards, Celie explained to the two some precautions about the association; as well as the tasks that a teacher would assign to the disciples who were about to leave her control. After she came back, she would assess the disciples' practice results one by one according to the task standards.

After finishing the conversation, the meals ordered by everyone in the private room were all prepared, and the restaurant waiters were waiting outside the door with the food carts, ready to serve the dishes at any time.

Celia, who was sitting in the main seat, gave the waiter at the door a look, and tonight's master-disciple dinner was officially announced to begin.

Exquisitely prepared delicacies were served one after another. Although they had missed their best tasting period due to being left out for a while, they were still considered excellent in terms of taste.

While enjoying the food, Gut couldn't help but glance at his junior sister Gu Mi beside him.

How should I put it? Gu Mi is like a different person now. Even though it can be seen that his junior sister is restraining her actions, she still subconsciously follows the past rules in her every move.

She is dignified and elegant, with restrained manners, as if she has suddenly transformed from a girl next door into an aristocratic lady.

That action is really like...

Just like Lylene on the other side of Gut.

Well, it seems that Junior Brother Lyleen is a genuine aristocrat, and Junior Sister Gu Mi behaves like Lyleen after training, so there is nothing wrong with that.

After the dinner, everyone stood at the door of the restaurant, planning to say goodbye as usual and then disperse on their own.

Gut and his junior sister Gu Mi looked at each other and both remembered the agreement they had made with each other.

However, Master Celiai did not turn around and leave as she did in the past. Instead, she took a few steps closer to her disciples and said with a smile.

"Now, it's our last night before we part."

"Just now I heard from a disciple that there's an event going on at the night market in Oissast tonight. You two should come with me and take a look around."

"Great!"

Gu Mi jumped in celebration, while Gu Te looked at the teacher specifically and happened to meet Celie's gaze.

After giving the teacher a smile and a thumbs up, Gut thought silently in his heart.

It seems that Fulilian's judgment at that time was not entirely correct. The way Celie expressed her feelings to her disciples was not that difficult to understand.

"Old thing", so cute.

When Gut and his group arrived at the night market in the city while walking and chatting, the festive atmosphere here happened to have reached its peak.

The originally wide streets became a little narrow because of the tourists who took to the streets to celebrate, but this is not a bad thing.

Because of this cramped environment, strangers no longer maintain a cold social distance, but instead stand close to each other like friends and family, able to feel each other's emotions.

In such an environment, everyone's joy for the festival will spread out in circles like drops of water on the sea.

The joy between them was contagious and interwoven into everyone's shared memories of the festival.

In such an atmosphere, even someone with a personality like Lyon had a smile on his face.

That's right, everyone should be happy during the holidays.

Gut's mouth also raised a smile because of the celebration, and when he passed by a street stall, he paid for two interesting small accessories.

He hid it behind his back, then quickly walked to the teacher and junior sister. While they were still confused, he took out the hidden jewelry from behind and put it on their heads.

"Brother, what is this you put on me?"

Gu Mi didn't take it off, but reached out to touch it. Based on the touch, it seemed to be a headband?

"Junior sister, you can take a look at the teacher. The style I give you is the same."

"Is it."

Following the guidance of his senior brother, Gu Mi looked at the teacher beside him and immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"Wow! Teacher, you are so cute!"

At this moment, two pure white cat ears were standing on the helpless Celie's head. The cute accessories and the helpless teacher formed an extreme contrast at this moment.

"Ah."

"Just a boring toy."

Celie snorted coldly and complained mercilessly.

Celia, who had just denied the cat ear accessories, was stunned when she looked at her disciple Gu Mi who was also wearing cat ears.

It seems that it is really cute.

"bump!"

Just as Celie was stunned, a loud noise suddenly came from the dark sky.

A brilliant firework bloomed in the night sky, and the people on the street seemed to have received a signal and cheered in unison.

"Touch! Touch! Touch!"

Various kinds of fireworks bloomed in the sky one after another. The grand scene illuminated the deep night like day, mixed with people's cheers, and together gathered into the climax of the ceremony.

Gut looked around at the people around him at the moment, Celiai, Gumi, Lyon, and the people on the street, and memorized the scene of this moment deeply in his mind.

Perhaps, this is the meaning of the festival.

Not everyone can remember the original origin of the festival.

Even if there were written records, they would probably be distorted beyond recognition after thousands of years.

After all, the festival is just an illusory concept; what is real are the people gathered here at this moment.

After the fireworks show, Celiai brought her disciples to the busiest square in the city.

Most of the snack stalls in the night market are gathered here.

Gut patted his junior sister Gu Mi on the shoulder, the two smiled at each other, and started the battle from beginning to end in tacit understanding.

Celia took her disciple Lyon to visit the shops selling magic devices on the street.

Before they knew it, they had been strolling around for a long time. When the crowds in the night market gradually shrunk, they reluctantly gathered together.

During this time, Gut and Gu Mi had a great time eating. The delicious food at the night market, full of the flavor of life, was really good at soothing people's hearts.

Teacher Celia and Lyon and the others also gained something.

Gut stared at the jar in the teacher's arms, feeling a little confused for a moment.

After hesitating for a while, Gut finally spoke.

"Teacher, this isn't a magic device, is it?"

"Well, it's certainly not a magical device, but this pattern has a very long history, even older than humanity's [Unified Empire Period]. It can already be called a cultural relic, so I bought it."

"Really."

Gut paused and continued.

"Teacher, can you show me a closer look?"

"it is good."

Celie handed the jar in her arms to Gut, and said proudly that she bought it for only five silver coins.

But Celiai didn't notice that the disciple Gut, who was holding the jar at the moment, had a very strange look on his face.

He kept muttering, "This shouldn't be the case," "This shouldn't be the case."

Seeing this, Celie's slightly agitated emotions calmed down, and she asked her disciple Gu Te, "What shouldn't be done?"
