Chapter 42: Elementary Supplementary Exam (2)

Views:

Ciro sat up suddenly, the wound on his back was burning with pain because of his big movements, but he couldn't care less and said coldly: "Isn't his illness under control all the time?"

The man turned to look at Dilling.

Dilling wisely put away his curious eyes, turned to go out, and thoughtfully helped them close the door.

Back in the dormitory, I saw Aidi Jeffrey and Kevin were there.

Seeing him, Rui Meng straightened his waist and said, "I heard that the Crown Prince of the Chopping Empire passed away?"

Di Lin was startled, "How do you know?"

Kevin said: "The messenger of the Chopping Empire has come to St. Pades."

Dilling suddenly realized. Although Shi Luo is the prince of the Kaeding Empire, according to the procedure, the imperial messenger should see the academy head first to show respect. That student should have received the news from the messenger, so he reported to Ciro first.

Raymond said: "The crown prince passed away, will Ciro succeed the crown prince?"

Aridi said: "Not necessarily. Ciro also has an older brother." Biago has a close relationship with the Caeding Empire, so he is very familiar with the current situation of the Caeding Empire.

Raymond said: "It doesn't necessarily mean is it possible?" Although he knew early on that there are princes and princes among his classmates, most princes and princes who come to St. Pardes will not inherit the throne. Because what the heir to the throne needs is not magic and the ability to govern the country. So thinking that Ciro might become the emperor of the empire, he felt extremely novel.

Aidi thought of Ciro's indifference to him, and the boss said unhappily, "How do I know?"

Seeing Di Lin's sullen expression, Kevin asked in a low voice, "Is Soso all right?"

"No news yet." Dilling sat on the bed for a while, then stood up uneasily, "I'll go to the dean's office and ask."

Raymond was startled and said, "Are you going to see the dean?"

Aidi snorted coldly and said, "The dean of the academy must now meet the envoys of the Kaeding Empire again, and I won't have time to see you."

Having said that, Dilling still decided to try his luck. Maybe I can meet Chai Fuang or McCreese.

He clearly overestimated his luck.

Apart from Michelle, there were only imperial emissaries who were waiting like him outside the dean's office.

After thinking about it, Di Lin still decided to speak, "I am shocked to hear the bad news of your country, please express my deepest condolences to the emperor of your country on my behalf, and sincerely hope that he will mourn and change."

The imperial messenger noticed him from the beginning, thinking he was just an ordinary student, but when he opened his mouth, he realized that he had underestimated him, and hurriedly returned the salute, "I don't know which country of friendship this noble friend is from?"

"Shaman Lille..."

The imperial messenger's eyes sank.

"Dilling Basseco."

The imperial emissary's smile froze.

From his expression, Dilling had already guessed that the other party must have taken his greeting just now as a mockery. But this kind of thing is meaningless to explain, anyway, from the standpoint of the two countries, even if he explains it, the other side may not believe it.

The atmosphere was awkward.

The door to the office opened suddenly, and Tommy came out first.

Dilling stepped forward and looked at him nervously, "Soso..."

Tommy's eyes lit up at the sight of him. "It's you. When are you free to come and enjoy my paintings?"

Dilling responded very quickly: "Suo Suo has always admired your paintings. If there is a chance, I hope to go to your studio with Suo Suo again." In a short sentence, he mentioned Susuo twice, and his meaning was obvious.

Tommy smiled. Although his smile was hidden in his gray beard, his pleasure could be seen from his curved eyes, "Okay, let's come once a week in the future."

Dilling blinked, "I hope you don't mind us disturbing."

Next came McCreeth and Chai Fuang.

Seeing him, McCreese was startled at first, and then nervously asked, "What happened again?" He couldn't blame him for being so nervous. It was because the sudden situation in Nightmare Forest had hit him too hard. As a person who is determined to become the head of St. Pardes, such an ugly record is bound to affect his future promotion path.

"Oh no, I'm here to pick up Soso." Dilling observed his expression without a trace.

McCreeth breathed a sigh of relief, "He'll be out soon."

Just as they were talking, Soso got out from behind them.

Seeing that he was unscathed, Di Lin finally let go of his heart.

"Dilling!" Soso jumped into his arms excitedly.

Dilling caught him easily.

McCreese coughed dryly, and said to the imperial messenger who had been hanging by the side for a long time: "Academic principal, please."

The messenger took his eyes away from Dilling and Soso, turned and entered the room.

Suo Suo was probably too frightened in the Nightmare Forest, and he has been suppressing it until now, and his body can't stop shaking.

Di Lin dragged and hugged him, and finally brought him back to the dormitory.

Aidi and others have already left, not even Raymond.

Soso returned to the familiar environment, and finally calmed down a lot. After drinking a glass of water, she asked, "Where's Shiro? Are you okay?"

Dilling frowned. Is it his delusion? He always felt that the relationship between Ciro and Suso was not what he imagined. "He suffered minor burns on his back, but he will be fine soon. What did you encounter in the Nightmare Forest?"

Ever since they returned, rumors spread that there was a nameless fire in the Nightmare Forest. His intuition is related to Suso and them.

Susuo swallowed his saliva and said, "Warcraft, a very powerful monster. It has four long fangs, a huge body, and is bathed in flames. It's terrifying. It rushed over, and it was Ciro who saved me." He paused and said worriedly, "Ciro must have been injured at that time."

A monster bathed in flames

Could this be the truth of the Nightmare Forest fire

Dilling had never seen the fire, so he quickly recognized the explanation and turned his attention to another matter, "You said Ciro saved you?"

Soso nodded vigorously.

Although Dilling was surprised by Ciro's actions, he believed that Soso would not lie. In fact, there is absolutely no need to lie about this.

"I want to see Ciro." Soso said cautiously.

"It should be." Dilling smiled and encouraged. He didn't want Soso to be involved in the subtle hostility between himself and Ciro.

Soso grinned happily: "Then let's go now?"

"Okay." Dilling paused, "Would you like to bring some gifts?"

"Gift?" Soso was worried, "what gift to give?"

"Go buy some fresh fruit." Di Lin took Soso's hand.

Soso followed without hesitation.

The fruit shop is next to the canteen. Since the canteen delivers fruit after meals every now and then, the fruit shop is not doing well.

When Dilling and Susuo went to the fruit shop, they realized that it was time for lunch, so they hurried to eat in the dining hall.

The cafeteria was noisy, and Raymond and others were also there. Everyone's topic is nothing more than the death of the Crown Prince of the Chopping Empire and the Wuming fire in the Nightmare Forest.

Dilling held his breath and listened for a while, but he lost interest when he realized that there were only a few words left and right.

After eating, he greeted Raymond and the others, and dragged Soso to buy two pineapples and a pack of grapes at the fruit store.

Suoso looked at the things in his hand, then at the fruit shop, frowned, "It seems that there are too few." He couldn't help but bought a big bag of apples, pears and peaches...

Seeing the fruit shop that was suddenly moved into the air and the shopkeeper who was smiling from ear to ear, Dilling reluctantly counted the gold coins.

Suso had no idea about money, so before going out, the housekeeper handed over his money to Dilling for safekeeping.

With a heavy gift, Soso and Di Lin walked towards the repeater's dormitory.

The repeater dormitory in the afternoon is much more lively than in the morning.

All the way, you can hear the voices of people.

Soso shrank his shoulders. The unfamiliar environment suppressed his enthusiasm, and his eyes were not as smart as they were at the beginning, but looked at the road ahead solemnly.

When he came to the door of Shiro's dormitory, Di Lin was about to knock on the door when he saw a man jumping out next to him, looking at him cautiously, "What are you doing here?"

Di Lin was stunned for a while, but after hearing his tone, he actually knew him, "I'm here to thank Prince Ciro for saving his life to Suso."

The other party thought about thousands of his intentions, but obviously did not think of one. After a moment of surprise, he said, "Prince Shiluo is receiving the imperial messenger."

Dilling was stunned.

These people must be from Shiro's party. The death of Crown Prince Caeding will definitely cause turmoil in the political situation of the Caeding Empire. They must have come to inquire about news and think about countermeasures. Thinking of it this way, the appearance of myself and Soso is really inappropriate.

He thought about it, and placed the fruits in the space bag on the ground.

The man looked embarrassedly at the small hills of fruits in front of him.

Dilling said: "Please convey my thanks to Suo Suo on your behalf."

Soso tugged at Dilling's sleeve in confusion.

Dilling smiled and said, "We'll visit again next time."

The man nodded and said, "Okay."

After Dilling got his guarantee, he immediately pulled Suosuo away.

Walking outside the dormitory, Suosuo whispered, "Why don't you wait?"

"This is not the time." At this time, no matter what the reason for their appearance, they would be suspected of coming to snoop on the news.

Suoso seemed to understand, but he knew that Dilling's words always made sense, so he quickly put this matter behind him.

Dilling really wanted to wait for the limelight to pass and then meet Ciro to thank him in person, but the opportunity did not wait for him.

The next day, news came out from the academy—

Ciro has set off to return home.
