Colin frowned... He didn't recognize the young wizard in front of him at all.
He wanted to ask questions out loud, but thinking of Lilian's instructions just now, he remained silent and stared at Herad expressionlessly, watching what he would do next.
But beyond Colin's expectation, Herard regained his composure, handed out a magic stone with a cold face, and said at the same time: "Take the subsidized magic stone."
Colin was confused, but no matter what, he had to give up the subsidized magic stone.
He stretched out his hand, ready to take the magic stone.
But the next second, looking at the medium magic stone handed over by Herad, his hand stayed where it was.
"What do you mean by this? Could it be that you can't tell the difference between high-level magic stones and medium-level magic stones?" Colin's heart sank and he said in a deep voice with no expression on his face.
"Herad?" Lilian's face turned cold instantly.
Seeing Colin and Lilian questioning him, Herad was not only not angry, but also filled with joy.
The pain of the past catalyzed anger, and the anger turned into pleasure at this moment due to the reactions of Colin and the two.
He looked at Colin.
In a daze, Colin's gloomy expression in front of him gradually overlapped with Atbold's original indifferent and indifferent appearance.
A smile appeared on Herad's face and he said coldly:
"It's just a fee for some injury medicine. You should understand, Lillian."
The strange behavior of the three of them had attracted the attention of the surrounding wizards, but no one said anything.
Although Herard is just a first-level wizard like them, his mentor is none other than the wizard Eugene sitting on the main throne.
Herard continued to speak, his tone was gloomy and proud:
"I haven't forgotten the pain Atbold gave me back then..."
"So you came to me?" Colin asked.
Although I still don’t know what exactly happened, I don’t know why Atbald gave Herald pain, but Herald came to see him...
But after so long, he has already understood that some things cannot be solved by avoiding them.
The Herald in front of him clearly wanted to cause trouble for him, and his unwillingness to give in would only encourage his arrogance, and might even make the situation worse.
He glanced at Herad, whose face was covered with scars, and continued:
"I once heard that in the kingdom of high elves, there is such a fable. An ugly gray gopher will often go to destroy the nests of brown finches."
Just like that, one day, the brown-feathered sparrow couldn't bear it anymore and asked the noble spirit of the ancient tree of life for comment."
"The ancient tree spirit asked the gray gopher: 'Why do you keep giving trouble to the brown hen?'
The gray gopher said: Because of the gray tits, the gray tits have been hunting us!
The spirit of life was surprised and asked: But what does this brown-feathered bird do?"
After saying this, Colin looked at Herard and asked word by word:
"Do you know what the gray gopher said?"
Herard was a little confused by Colin's unexpected words. His original anger was slightly stagnant, and he subconsciously asked:
"how……"
But in just a moment, he reacted, shut up and glared at Colin.
Colin smiled and replied to him:
"The gray gopher said, 'Because gray tits are so scary.'"
"It doesn't dare to face gray tits, so it only dares to look for trouble with brown finches."
Herard's expression suddenly darkened, and Colin's words stabbed him in a sore spot like a sharp arrow.
Atbold's weird methods were so memorable that he even felt that he had a psychological shadow!
Every time he saw flowers blooming on the roadside, he would think of those strange flowers that were conceived in his body and then burst out of his skin.
The scent of flowers mixed with the smell of blood lingered in the tip of his nose for more than a month, accompanied by pain and tingling that almost made him lose his will.
Although later, with the help of his mentor Eugene, the pain and itching were suppressed, and the bruised body recovered...but the fear in his heart seemed to be like a gangrene attached to the bone, and it never went away.
Although he didn't want to admit it, now he... indeed no longer had the courage to face Atbold.
Lilian couldn't help but feel a little surprised when she heard what Colin said.
Colin has always been gentle on weekdays... he doesn't like fighting, but he has never shown such a sharp edge.
But...she whispered to Colin:
"When my mentor went to help you get a place to join the Alseus Society, he punished Herard for offending him. I'm afraid he was holding a grudge because of this."
Colin was slightly startled. He didn't expect that the cause of the incident was actually because of himself...
In this case, it is reasonable for Herad to go to him... No, the words have been spoken. Even if it is reasonable, Herad does not dare to go to Atbold - this has caused him
It is also true that the person responsible for the injury is in trouble.
On the other side, Herard had a sullen face and was glaring at him fiercely.
Colin's face was calm and his heart was calm.
Killing each other within the school is a taboo, and he and Herald are both members of the school.
Moreover, judging from Herad's appearance, this conflict was not a life-or-death feud - otherwise Herad would have already proposed to him, a newcomer who had just advanced to become a formal wizard, a school duel in which one person would surely die.
Of course, even if Herard proposed a duel, he could ignore it.
"Herald, why don't you continue distributing magic stones?"
At this time, another middle-aged wizard sitting next to Eugene, the host, suddenly asked.
Herard did not answer, but subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Eugene, who was sitting in the main seat.
Seeing that he didn't care and was still sitting there playing with the lychee balls in his hands, he felt slightly relieved.
"Olav, can you help me distribute the remaining magic stones?" He asked the middle-aged wizard.
Although Instructor Eugene has never cared about these things, if the task of distributing magic stones ordered by the instructor is delayed... then it may not necessarily be like this.
Olaf put down his knife and fork, looked at Herad, and frowned secretly.
This Herald doesn't know his priorities. No matter what grudges he has, it is undoubtedly more important to complete the task ordered by Master Eugene!
He sighed secretly in his heart, stood up, and walked towards Herad.
Seeing Olaf coming, he seemed to have no worries anymore.
Herard turned to look at Colin and stretched out his arm again.
He continued in a cold voice: "This is the only subsidy you have. If you don't want it, I will take it away."
"Herald, do you dare to deduct the school's subsidy?"
At this moment, Lilian suddenly stood up and asked coldly.
Her voice rose high, drowning out the hustle and bustle of conversation in the room, causing the whole room to suddenly become quiet.
Colin also stood up.
But before he could speak, an unexpected voice suddenly came from beside him.
"Your Excellency Herard, Lord Eugene is watching. Even if there is any medical expenses, you must first pay a full subsidy and then ask for it.
Why don’t we discuss this matter after distributing the subsidies now?”
Silaire, who has a mature temperament and elegant hair style, actually also spoke up.
He had a smile on his face and looked like a peacemaker.
Colin's impression of him changed slightly... At this time, not everyone has the courage to speak out.
Snapped.
On the main seat.
Eugene put the lychee ball in his hand gently on the table, covered his mouth and yawned,
Then he said calmly: "Herald, finish distributing the subsidies first."
