Some people are used to being passive and find it nice to have a thoughtful person taking the lead.
Some people are just the opposite and don't like to be arranged unilaterally. However, the people in the old Class VII are basically such people.
Even Eliot, who was soft-spoken, had the best temper, and was the most talkative, was stubborn at heart, and had a big quarrel with his father over his career in music.
Rean himself also values this very much, otherwise he would not spend so much time guiding Altina and let her make her own decisions all day long.
I don’t want me to feel it, I want you to feel it.
He always thought he was doing a good job, but he didn't expect that he would unknowingly go the opposite way.
When did I become so arrogant?
Ask yourself.
Reflection.
Then, apologize.
"I'm sorry, Laura, Fei and Elliot. I was wrong. I apologize, but please believe that I definitely didn't choose to do this because I didn't trust you."
"This kind of thing——"
"——We have long——"
"——Got it."
The three of them exchanged glances and spoke in unison.
We have experienced so many things together, and we already have an unbreakable bond with each other.
Without absolute trust, Rean would not tell them the most important secret.
Nor would they come all the way from all over the empire just to provide help to Rean.
"We just hope that when you think about problems in the future, when you need help, you will think of us first. This is your companion."
"No matter what happens, we are with you."
"If you dare to abandon us and do dangerous things, that would be truly unforgivable."
"Everyone..."
Rean was once again moved by this group of extremely lovely people.
It was great that I could meet them. When his brain suddenly crossed half of the empire to go to Thorz to go to school, it was definitely the wisest decision in his life, bar none.
Even if, in the end, he will end up being banished to eternal sleep and "always accompanied by darkness".
"You too, when you need my help, you must - wait, speaking of it, you also secretly discussed it without telling me this time, although I have already seen it."
At this point, Li En's eyes suddenly became playful.
The expressions of the three people suddenly froze.
Fortunately for Elliot, he basically didn’t have any quarrels with Rean and always helped Rean speak up.
Laura and Fei were embarrassed.
They are not very good at words and concealment.
"That, that's because——"
"——We want to give you a surprise."
"I'm still worried about you."
"Li En, are you angry?"
The two of them lowered their heads, but their eyes moved up unconsciously, secretly looking at Li En's expression.
Especially Fei, because she is short, she looks particularly pitiful when she peeks.
Li En couldn't help but rub her head and said softly: "Of course not, just seeing the way you just looked like me, I also wanted to make a fuss or something."
"I don't think it's a quarrel if you say it like that." Elliot complained.
"Rean, you've learned too much." Fei puffed her lips.
"Who allowed me to have a senior brother like that?"
Rean did not hesitate to put all the responsibility on his senior brother, who asked him to lead people to beat me up just now, and he was so skillful.
By the way, before Rean returned, his impression of Cassius was that of a majestic general and a generous senior brother, who can be called a model of an elder.
I didn’t expect that the real him would be such an unscrupulous, even a little immoral person.
How should I put it, there is a feeling of disillusionment with idols.
At the same time, it feels more real and approachable.
Compared with the "Swordsmith of Light", who is a model swordsman in every move, and Alleria, who exudes domineering all the time, it is easier to get along with this senior brother who has no airs at all.
Fei thought about Cassius, then looked at Rean in front of her, and nodded: "It is true that Rean is better."
Laura asked curiously: "Your other senior brother, 'Wind Sword Master' Arios Marklain, what kind of person is he?"
"I don't know." Rean shook his head with some regret, "Although I have stayed in Crossbell for so long, I have never been able to see Senior Brother Arios. I heard that he is very capable, very noble and self-disciplined.
But——"
There is no need to say much about what follows, everyone understands it.
There are more rumors about Cassius than Arios, and there are all kinds of complimentary words, but in fact he is an unscrupulous uncle. Who can guarantee that Arios is not?
"Then, where is your master, the swordsman?" Elliot asked.
"Master... how should I put it... his personality is a bit similar to that of Brother Cassius, but in some aspects he is more casual."
Because he is a teacher, Li En carefully considers every word and speaks as nicely as possible.
However, Elliot and the three of them are not stupid, so how could they not know what Rean meant.
Suddenly an unscrupulous old man appeared.
Laura sighed with emotion: "I can't imagine that there is such an outstanding granddaughter as Miss Yanelas."
"That's because you don't understand her." Fei's little face wrinkled up when she mentioned this, "She likes to be clingy, even more so than Senior Angelica."
Li En's mouth twitched.
He knew exactly what Angelica was doing, and that was even more exaggerated... No wonder Brother Cassius would say that serious people of the Eight Leaves Itto style are rare.
Considering that she is my senior sister after all, I still have to distinguish between one and two.
"It should be due to the influence of Master. Master is a very free man who likes to travel around the world and rarely stops in one place. He once said that he should see all the beautiful places in the world and taste all the delicious food.
Enjoy all the wine - I think you'll hit it off with the branch principal."
"Branch principal, Count Le Guin? What happened to her?"
Laura became interested. Alleria was also a disciple of Fander style, and she was Laura's senior sister. She always valued Laura very much, and when she was in the military, she mentioned that Laura should be her subordinate more than once.
.
"I am very good at swordsmanship, and even more powerful when drinking. Except for Master, I have never seen anyone who can drink like that."
"Yes, you have competed with Earl Le Guin." Laura nodded with understanding at first, and then looked suspicious, "But how do you know her drinking capacity."
"After the competition, she took her to drink. After drinking all night, I lay in bed for eight hours." Li En didn't hide it either.
"One night?"
Laura’s expression fell instantly.
"Rean, I think it's wrong for a man and a woman to be alone together for a night."
"Also, the fact that the Countess did this means that she already knew that you were the 'Sword Master' earlier than we did."
Fei also put on a serious face.
"You need to ask carefully."
"Recruit me from the real facts!"
Laura and Fei leaned over from the left and right while talking.
Elliot continued to watch from the sidelines and sighed softly: "Hey, hey, being too popular is not a good thing."
