In the early morning four days later, the Imperial College was still business as usual, but many people discovered that the man cleaning the floor had disappeared.
The students were not surprised by this. In their opinion, the other party probably found a new way out and even became the small leader of a certain mercenary group.
However, until now, no one has discovered anything unusual in the Imperial Library. The reason is simple, no one would get into such a boring place so early in the morning.
The perspective changes to the black market. Boom is washing the dishes while planning today's training. But Rikka has already run out of the courtyard to see if she can encounter a new herd of beasts.
The tall reeds formed a perfect barrier between people. One figure was seen running towards a certain forest at high speed, while the other circled around, but the destination was the same.
Familiar hillside, familiar white sugar cake, familiar freedom and leisure. Rikka looked at the sky boredly, looking forward to what would happen today.
It seemed that the gods listened to her prayers. A man stopped and drank the water bag panting. Rikka's little head slowly stretched out from the back slope, and his eyes flashed with cold light.
This person is the "parasitic student" who has been cleaning up the Imperial College for nearly ten years. But at this time, he no longer has the flattery before, as if he has become a different person.
After resting for a while, he straightened his back and breathed in the free air. Just last night, he finally completed his mission and cleared away the books on the third and fourth floors of the Imperial Library.
What is contained in the two storage bags inside is not a wish to return, but the future of the Principality of Zeon.
As a contract beast, the gray-haired rat climbed out of the robe. It could feel the mood of its master and was naturally excited.
The man looked at the ancient city of Aogu not far away, and remained silent in a daze. It was the graveyard of his youth and the place where his dignity was extinguished.
Sighing softly, he turned around slowly, intending to rush back to the Principality of Jean in one go. But at this moment, a soft voice rang in his ears.
"Uncle, did you escape from Ogu City? Did you kill someone?" Rikka asked excitedly, wearing the Viking war dress.
However, when the man heard this, he almost vomited his heart out. He was so powerful, but when did the other party get close to him?
"Little...little girl, you can eat as much as you want, but you can't talk nonsense. I'm just a passerby. Goodbye." The man smiled unnaturally and turned to leave.
But Rikka is not a fool. The other person's eyes were clearly full of resentment, very much like those criminals. And as long as the criminals escaped, most of them carried countless valuables.
"Hey, since uncle is not a murderer, how about asking me to return to Ogu City? I know a bar and the owner is very nice." Rikka dodged and stopped in front of the man.
The flower moon is the season of wind, but for some reason, there is no sound at this moment. When the man saw the opponent's posture, he was not surprised at all, but his contracted beast was screaming wildly, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
"First of all, I don't want to fight with a little kid like you, and secondly, I'm very young! I'm not an uncle!" The man spread his hands, indicating that he meant no harm.
However, Rikka kept staring at the gray-haired rat. Since she was also a contracted beast, she naturally knew the true identity of this little thing.
"To be able to own a contracted beast, one must be rich or noble. Since we are so destined, let's leave something for others." Rikka looked up at each other, still rambling.
This is not because Rikka is indecisive, but because she wants to confirm whether the other party is really alone and whether there are any companions hiding around.
"There are some gold coins here. Just think it's my bad luck. Are you satisfied now?" The man frowned, but still took out his money bag.
In his opinion, the other party was just a little thief. If he hadn't been responsible for the heavy responsibility, he would have killed him with a wave of his hand. But doing so would have risked exposing his whereabouts, so he just made such a compromise.
"First, what I want is not these gold coins, but your life. Second, there is only one brother in my family, and I will only call that person brother. Third, you, the contracted beast, are very disgusting, but you are better than your master."
Be sensible." Rikka raised the two meteorite iron swords and said coldly.
But what answered her was an extremely powerful magic cyclone. Because the man didn't think of the rumors of the "White Death" until this moment.
"The light of the scorpion tail, the wolf spider cave, the stalagmites buried deep in the soil, the huge fangs that pierce everything, in my name, the ground stabbing technique!" A huge magical light emerged at Rikka's feet, and each one was extremely sharp.
The stone spear broke out of the ground.
As the smoke filled the air, the man took a few steps back again, still looking wary. The gray-haired rat stood there blankly, looking up at its owner.
"Are you sick? These are the clothes I just wiped clean last night!" Liuhua rushed out of the smoke with a disgraced face. Although he looked very embarrassed, he had no scars.
The man's eyes widened when he saw this. As a magician, he had never seen anyone survive his spells unharmed. Not to mention, the other party didn't seem to have even a scratch on his skin.
However, since he can infiltrate the Imperial Academy on behalf of the Principality of Zeon, he naturally has a different character from ordinary people. He instantly pulled out a one-handed magic wand and recited the incantation again.
"The soft soil turned into crystal, the unruly, shining, crawling Iron Princess, the blade close at hand, in my name, the crystal armor!" As he spoke, the surface of his body was gradually colored with a light pink color
Covered with crystals, this is the absolute defense in the existing magic system, enough to withstand a blow from the dragon.
"Blunt objects hidden in the void, please use magic as a guide, listen to this call of despair, crush everything, in my name, summon a boulder!" A flaming boulder as big as a small hill appeared out of thin air, and instantly
It hit Rikka's position.
After the man finished doing this, he sat on the ground a little exhausted, but the crystal armor on the surface of his body was still there. It was only then that he noticed that his contracted beast had curled up into a ball.
However, he didn't think much about it, only thinking that he was shocked by his own magic. Just then, he was uncharacteristically uncharacteristic and even acted frightened.
"Is this all your strength? If there is no stronger one, then I will take action." Rikka's voice sounded again, still so calm.
Gudong! The man's head rolled to the ground. As an earth magician, he didn't say a word until his death. As for the gray-haired rat, it closed its eyes even though its master died. Contract beasts are so sad.
, even if they are aware of the opponent's strength, they can't stop the battle that is destined to be tragic.
A ball of flame rose on the Miracle Plain. Rikka shook the two storage bags and skipped towards Ogu City. During this period, countless imperial cavalry roared continuously. Looking at the direction they were traveling, it was the Principality of Cisse to the north.
