Understand humans!
Page 67
Celia once suggested to Zanze that if he really couldn't bear it, he could tie up Aula and keep her in a jar... Zanze thought that this was too cruel, but just now, he thought about it for a moment.
"What was that look in your eyes just now? It's exactly the same as that old woman Celia's, haha - it really is similar... Zanze, you must look at your expression in the mirror just now. Every time Celia threatened to put me in a jar, she had this bitter face, haha -"
"........."
"Zanze, say something, you don't want to put me in the jar too, do you!?"
“…………Eh.”
Zanze sighed, and ultimately decided that it would be better not to scare Aura.
It's not because she's soft-hearted, it's just that the demons won't be scared off by things that haven't really happened to them - it's not like they haven't tried it before. After a few days, when they find that they can't be soaked in the jar by Aura, they will use this to mock humans and laugh at their weakness and incompetence. It's really infuriating.
“Put on this collar.” Zanze took out a purple collar from her body and threw it to Aura. She thought Aura would resist for at least a while, but the demon obediently put it around his neck, as if he was used to it.
"Uh... why are you wearing it around your neck, like a puppy?" Zanze asked in surprise.
"Isn't it worn around the neck?" Aura pulled the shackles on her neck and tilted her head, unable to understand. If not around the neck, where else can it be worn? The shackles that Volame gave her were also worn around the neck.
“Put it on your horns. It’s a wonder you can tie it on. It’s such a tight collar but you don’t suffocate.” Zanze saw that Aura was in a panic but couldn’t take off the collar, so he had to do it himself. He took it off easily, put the horns on Aura again, and then untied her shackles.
In an instant, the restraints on Aura disappeared and magic power began to flow.
Aura's silly expression suddenly turned cold and stern. Zanze reached out to help her with her hair, but was caught all of a sudden. The power of the demons, plus the suppression of magic, made it impossible for Zanze to break free no matter how hard he struggled.
Zanze looked up and met Aura's eyes that were flashing with dangerous light, and he knew what Aura was thinking.
He simply relied on his magic power to suppress her and kidnap her to escape.
The white-haired elf named Fulilian had already reminded Zanze that Aura's order "Do not hurt anyone" had been cancelled. In this magic city, there were probably no more than five human magicians who could defeat Aura head-on, and Zanze was not one of them.
Fortunately, Zanze was well prepared.
"Aura, don't you want to ask what this collar is?"
"Don't try to lie to me. I can feel that there is no punishment or control magic in this collar."
"Yes, there is only a simple perception magic in it."
"It's just perception magic. Without the restrictions of forbidden magic, even Volame can't kill me, Aura, from a thousand meters away!!"
"It's Celia's."
"Zanze... please, don't tell anyone what happened just now!" Aura knelt down skillfully, touched her forehead to the ground, and begged Zanze.
"What just happened?"
"Nothing happened just now!"
Aura, who was almost exposed, jumped up, pretended nothing had happened, and knelt obediently behind Zanze, watching Zanze busy, with his hands on his knees, his eyes motionless.
Zanze didn't care about her. He twisted his wrist which was painfully grabbed by Aura just now, and put away the shackles. Zanze originally planned to put them in a small suitcase and take them to the Continental Magic Association to return them to Volame tomorrow, but Aura's naughty behavior just now was still vivid in his mind. Zanze thought about it and decided to keep the shackles. Maybe they would be useful in the future.
As for Volame, she will explain it clearly, and she believes Volame will understand. After all, Volame is the one who is most worried about Aura.
At first, Volame suggested not to even remove the shackles from Aura... At that time, Zanze thought Volame was overly sensitive...
Now it seems that she had overestimated Aura's bottom line.
"Zanze... can this collar allow Celie to sense my location?"
"Yes."
"If I try to escape, there won't be a thunderbolt that hits me from the sky...haha..."
"........."
"There won't be a thunderbolt that will hit me from the sky!"
"........."
"Zanze, please speak... please, don't be silent! I'm so scared!"
Be afraid, it’s right to be afraid.
After Zanze cleaned up the mess in the house caused by Aura, he reached out to Aura and held her horn with one hand, the broken one on the left.
Looking at Aura's closed eyes and the tears streaming down her face, although he knew that the demon was just acting, Zanze couldn't remain indifferent to this expression - perhaps this was the reason why Lady Celie didn't recommend that she go to the front line to fight the demons.
"Awula"
"Don't hit me, I won't dare to run away again! Wuuuuuu——"
Zanze just called Aura's name and Aura's whole body began to tremble. She hugged her head, afraid that Zanze would punish her for her attempt to attack her just now.
Even if it's just a beating, Aula has thick skin and flesh and can withstand human fists and kicks.
But if Zanze used magic, the remaining half of Aura's left corner would not be saved today.
"Go take a shower, it stinks."
"It doesn't stink."
“It smells of blood.”
“It’s the aroma”
"If you don't go, I'll break your horns."
"Go now!"
The sound of water in the bathroom could be heard. After washing and changing clothes, Zanze combed Aura's hair.
It has been five years, but Aura's hair has grown a lot longer. It seems that she has been eating well over the years.
"My hair has grown long, almost to my waist."
"Not as long as yours."
"One day he will be taller than me."
"Then Zanze has to comb his hair himself."
"Yes, yes, I never expect Aura to comb my hair."
Late at night, a man and a demon went to sleep in separate rooms.
-
The days that followed were dull. Zanze went out during the day and returned home from get off work at night. Although Zanze did not restrict Aura's coming in and out, he only asked Aura to wear a hat when going out.
But every time Aura opened the door and stuck his head out, he could see Fulilian next door looking over here and greeting him.
Aula closed the door silently again.
Never went out once.
Chapter 95: Don’t you want to say goodbye?
Occasionally, Zanze would bring the Magic Association's business home and entertain three or five first-level magicians in the living room. Even the great magician who represented the pinnacle of human magic in this era had come. Aura was familiar with half of them, but not the other half.
As for Volame, she came once or twice.
Every time Aura hid and didn't see her, and Volame had no intention of looking for Aura, she was still discussing with Zanze in the living room about things like "the former president re-served", "a new batch of magicians were replaced in five years", "it should be okay if you can't recognize him", "if you recognize him, just put on a hat", "you can't be locked up in the house forever" and so on, fragmented words.
As for Aura, although she appears to be well-behaved on the surface, as a cunning and patient demon, Aura has been waiting for an opportunity.
Awula has not forgotten his mission to Kribi.
Although I was captured, which was different from what I had expected when I sneaked in...but the form doesn't matter, as long as I can steal the confidential documents that Shuharat requested.
I just happened to live with Zanze, the president of the Continental Magic Association, so stealing a document was a simple matter.
But because Zanze was always keeping an eye on her, Aura was afraid that if she did anything unusual, Zanze would report it to Celia, and then she would be threatened with horn chopping, jar immersion, and vivisection, so Aura endured it all the time.
Until, that night——
Someone from the Magic Association's Ministry of Foreign Affairs urgently notified Zanze:
"The King of the Principality of Tago has requested to meet with the President of the Magic Association to discuss the deployment of border magicians and the training and exchange of court magicians."
"The Foreign Minister and the Army Commander of the Principality of Tago have discussed these matters with me privately before. Are they finally willing to formally discuss the cooperation treaty? Lady Celia is unwilling to go?"
"Lady Celia is studying magic lately and has no time."
"What kind of magic can make Lady Celie so distressed?"
"It is classified as a major secret. I have never known about it."
"Another major secret magic... This is already the seventh time. Judging from the time Celie spent on the previous six times, it will take at least half a year for her to be willing to shift her attention away from those magics with strange effects. This time, I have to handle the diplomacy."
"I will prepare the carriage for you and we can set off in two hours."
"No need to be so anxious. We'll set off tomorrow...tomorrow morning."
Zanze looked back at the window of the house and saw a pair of purple eyes quietly peeking out. There was a hungry light flashing in the purple eyes. Zanze sighed helplessly and postponed the time of departure.
Zanze was busy until very late tonight. He bought a lot of food and took it home. He also contacted the top leaders of the Magic Association and asked them to handle a case urgently. Finally, he contacted Volame and asked Volame not to leave Kribi at least until he came back.
Early the next morning, Zanze woke Aura up and told her:
"I'm going on a long trip. The food is in the kitchen cabinet. Aura, you should eat on time, but don't be so unrestrained as last time."
“No matter how moderate you are, it’s not enough!”
"I know," Zanze covered his head. That was Aura's personality. She would want to taste something and throw it away after tasting it. She would cherish the food only when it was very scarce. If she bought a lot at one time, most of it would be wasted by her.
"I am negligent... If you don't have enough food, go to the Magic Association's public cafeteria. Remember to wear your hat and don't scare others."
"I have no money."
"Wait a minute, someone will bring you an ID card. Just show it to the cafeteria staff. It's free. It's the same as this one."
Zanze took out his credentials as the guild master, a silver badge engraved with a wand and elf ears.
“No need to spend money~~” Aura muttered to himself, his eyes rolling around.
As soon as Zanze saw it, he knew what the demon was planning.
She warned Aura:
"Don't have any bad thoughts. I can't stop Lady Celie from teaching you a lesson."
"That means, Zanze, you will stand on my side?" Aura's eyes rolled again.
"No, I will stand on Lady Celia's side and teach you a lesson together." Zanze said expressionlessly.
"You don't know how to stop it at all."
"I didn't say I would stop it, I just said I couldn't stop it."
"........."
"Okay, take care of yourself. I'm leaving. You should get along better with other human magicians and don't stay at home all day without going anywhere."
"Why should I have a good relationship with humans?"
"Maybe it will come in handy in the future."
"No matter how good our relationship is, after a hundred years, they will all be dead. They will be of no use to us."
"Although humans can't stay young forever, there are always young humans... Never mind, whatever you say." The carriage had already arrived at the door. Zanze obviously had something else to say, but she didn't have time to say it. She turned around and asked Aura out of the blue,
"Don't say goodbye?"
"Why would I say that? I don't want to meet you again."
“…………”Zanze didn’t say anything else in the end, he just knocked on Aura’s head.
Aura blinked, not understanding why she was being beaten. She was always sincere, never lied, and said whatever she thought.
He is a straightforward and kind demon!
Never do anything sneaky!
——As soon as Zanze left, Aura went into her room and started looking through the secret documents of the Magic Association.
-
Aura sneaked into Zanze's bedroom and turned over and over in her bed. After searching on the bed, she crawled under the bed, and then searched in the closet. After turning Zanze's room into a mess, Aura confirmed that Zanze had never brought back the documents of the Continental Magic Association.
There is no other way. If the confidential document that Xuharat asked Aura to find is not kept in Zanze's house, then it can only be in the headquarters of the Continental Magic Association. That place is full of warning magic barriers. Even Aura cannot quietly break it with his own magical attainments. If he insists on breaking in, he will definitely alert other human magicians.
"But since Xiuharat sent me here, it means there must be a way to steal the secret documents. Only when Xiuharat sees the result of my successful theft of the documents will he feel at ease to let a great demon go deep into the rear of humans... It's just a process. What should the process be like?"
