Under the warm yellow lights, many students were dancing on the noble yet elegant dance floor. But there were also many people sitting around lazily shaking their goblets.
"Ella, you look beautiful today!" the man praised, his eyes looking at the elf girl were full of amazement, mixed with fiery intoxication.
"Really? Warner, thank you for the compliment." Ella showed a polite smile on her face, distant and cold.
Ella's behavior made Warner's eyes even hotter. What he liked was Ella's coldness towards him.
Her grass-green curly hair was hanging down casually, and her green eyes were full of life. Ella's makeup today was very delicate, and it made her already beautiful face even more beautiful. An elegant long dress is as exciting as the swaying flowers in early spring.
The elf girl is quiet and elegant, with perfect manners. Ella is the beauty of their generation, and in the entire Imperial Capital Demonic Martial Arts Academy, her reputation is second only to Bertha Camilla. What's more, not only is she powerful, she is also a princess of the elves.
Unlike the gentle Bertha, Ella has always been very cold. Above all, she is a flower without an owner. Male students in the academy often discuss which lucky man will pick this high mountain flower.
"Am I honored to ask this beautiful lady to dance?" Warner made an invitation gesture as a gentleman, and he extended his hand to Ella.
"No, Warner, thank you. You know I never like dancing." Ella shook her head and refused Warner's invitation to dance. She turned her attention to the door of the hall. At this moment, there was some commotion there.
"What? Are you interested in the new students?" Seeing her focused gaze, Warner frowned and looked in the direction Ella was looking.
He vaguely saw a beautiful young man walking in. Thinking of the recent rumors that Ella was very concerned about a newly admitted junior student, Warner suddenly smiled maliciously and strode over.
Ella picked up the wine glass and covered the sneer on her lips. Warner is her admirer, she knows it very well, and her previous actions were just for Warner to see. Although Warner is obsessed with women, he is really talented and has a good background behind him. At this time he has reached the level of an intermediate magician.
Although the intermediate magician is not too powerful in this world, it is enough to deal with Clarence, who is just an ordinary person at the moment. As for what will happen to Warner, she doesn't care. If Warner can be eliminated by Camilla, it will naturally be best for her.
Let me see how capable you are as a male protagonist. Ella showed a smile full of malice without leaving any trace. She felt sick when she thought that such a stud wanted to take her into his harem! Although this person hasn't had time to do this yet, so what
As for Bertha, she will naturally intercept it. Ella glanced at the pair of men and women not far away who seemed to be a perfect match, jealousy flashed in her eyes.
"My dear, your brother doesn't seem to be well? Do you need me to come over and help?" The handsome man with blue hair and red eyes lowered his head and whispered in Bertha's ear.
"..." Bertha's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and then relaxed again after a while. She smiled and refused, "Burris, no need, I believe my brother can handle this matter. I will introduce you to my brothers later."
It was actually a bit funny to say it. She didn't know why she subconsciously believed that her brother would be able to handle this matter. It was obvious that he had never really been exposed to magic due to his previous talent.
"Okay, I'll do whatever you want." Burris smiled lowly, his voice ambiguous and low. The warm breath hit Bertha's neck, making her flinch.
Looking at him with doting and indulgent eyes, Bertha couldn't help but blush. Bertha gently beat his chest and said coquettishly: "You know how to bully me!"
Burris didn't refute, he just smiled and grabbed her fist, put it to his lips and kissed her gently. It's quite the attitude of saying what you say is what it is.
This move made Bertha blush even more, as tempting as a ripe apple. Bertha shyly buried her head in Burris's arms for a long time, unwilling to show her face.
…
Seeing that the two of them were just flirting, Ella felt relieved. Although she was said to be responsible for intercepting Bertha, she was actually not sure. At this time, Bertha only had the strength of a high-level magician in the plot and rumors. Before, she accidentally discovered that Bertha had actually reached the level of a magician a long time ago!
Ella has barely reached the level of a high-level magician now. If Bertha really starts a fight with her, she really has no confidence. As for Burris, Ella has automatically ignored him.
Although she was relieved, the jealousy in Ella's heart was burning brightly. Why can that woman Bertha be favored by such an outstanding man? Everyone in the college also favors her. She is obviously better than her, right
Miao Anyun, who was intercepted as soon as he entered the door, was very calm. He had known that such a period would happen.
"Are you the new junior student?" Warner seemed to smile kindly, "I am Warner Marlowe, a sixth grader." He deliberately emphasized the word Marlowe.
Others have already introduced themselves, so Miao Anyun will naturally not be rude.
"Hello, senior, I'm Clarence, a freshman who just enrolled this year." Miao Anyun didn't seem to notice the superiority in Warner's tone. In other words, I noticed it but didn't care.
Nobles are used to being chased and praised, so their tone of voice is inevitably a bit condescending. This is probably a common problem among nobles.
After all, no matter how much he thought, he would never have imagined that Warner actually wanted to use family power to oppress him! Camilla is one of the largest families in the empire, and is even more gigantic than the Marlowe family where Warner belongs.
Because Clarence rarely went out before, Warner didn't know that the person standing in front of him was from the Camilla family. And he, who never cared about things other than beauties, didn't know that Miao Anyun was accepted by Pullman as his apprentice.
As the saying goes, those who don't know are fearless. Warner, who didn't know anything, thought that Miao Anyun was a country bumpkin who had never even heard of the Marlowe family.
"Your name...is..." Warner seemed to be thinking hard for a long time, then slapped his forehead and looked like he suddenly realized, "Your name is Clarence, right? I'm sorry, I'm really forgetful and I never remember it. A name for a weakling." This sentence has a provocative meaning in it.
"Senior, what do you want from me?" Miao Anyun asked seriously, as if she didn't hear the sarcasm in Warner's words. Under the illumination of the crystal lamp, the dazzling golden eyes shone beautifully like the most precious gems.
"Are you interested in competing with the seniors? If you win... no, no, no, as long as you can survive three attacks from me, I will give you half of the academy points in my card! If I win, How about you just agree to one condition?" Warner, who was dazzled by the beauty in front of her, unconsciously used the tone of a strange man to coax a little lolita, with a hint of abduction, but he still hadn't forgotten his previous purpose.
I didn't take a closer look before, but now I see that this new junior looks really good. No, it’s more than good, it’s simply the perfect marriage partner in his mind! The face-conscious Warner couldn't help but think. It's a pity that he was born of the wrong gender. If it were a girl, he would definitely pursue her passionately. He glanced at the boy's slightly raised Adam's apple with some regret.
"...Okay." Miao Anyun seemed to hesitate for a while before nodding. But I silently made a V sign in my heart, and the academy clicked it.
Academy points are something similar to currency that is common in this academy, and are obtained by accepting tasks issued by the school.
Academy points can be used to exchange for many things, such as precious magic books, treasured materials, and the like. Even the guidance of the Holy Magister can be exchanged for academy points, but the required academy points are too high and not many people can get them.
Miao Anyun followed Warner to the venue dedicated to the competition. Because it is a magic martial arts academy, there are many competition venues for students to use.
"Then let's get started!" Warner said.
He will try his best to be gentle, after all, the other party is such a beautiful beauty! Warner thought.
"Wait a minute!" A familiar voice interrupted. Warner and Miao Anyun looked at the direction of the sound at the same time.
It's Dylan Camilla. Warner was a little surprised, fear flashed in his eyes. Neither he nor his family can afford to offend this young master.
"Camila, what's wrong with you?" Warner asked very politely, but Dylan ignored him. He was suddenly dissatisfied.
As soon as Dylan arrived at the party venue, he heard that Miao Anyun was competing with Warner. Knowing that Miao Anyun had no power, he hurried over for fear that he would be bullied by Warner.
This guy is really stupid, right? Why do you still try to be brave when you know you can't beat Warner? Did he think he wouldn't protect him? Dylan was angry and impatient.
"Hey, what are you doing standing there in a daze? Come here quickly." Dylan's voice was filled with dissatisfaction and deep worry.
Warner was stunned. Could it be that Clarence had a good relationship with Dylan Camilla? Otherwise, how could Dylan's character care about the life and death of an unrelated person.
"I made an appointment with this senior for a discussion. Dylan, please wait for me for a while." Miao Anyun would not give up on the academy point he was about to obtain, so he gave Dylan a comforting look.
Dylan saw it, but turned his head and became sulky.
Does this guy know what he's talking about? He is helping him! Dylan thought angrily. However, he still turned his attention to the two people confronting each other, so that if something unexpected happened, he could react immediately.
Although Dylan ignored him, he complied with his wishes and stood aside without disturbing him. Miao Anyun said to Warner: "Senior, let's get started."
Warner nodded and took a stance. The opponent is a newcomer who has no magic at all, so it is naturally impossible for Warner to use magic to deal with him. If he did this, he would probably become the laughing stock of the entire academy.
But soon, he regretted it.
By the time the sparring session ended, Warner was already bruised and swollen. He almost begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother before a certain demon let him go.
He had no idea that this boy who looked weak, delicate and fragile like a doll would be so... cruel and violent.
Warner, who knelt down and handed over the academy point, was extremely regretful. He shouldn't have provoked this humanoid monster by provoking anyone.
Dylan, who dislocated his jaw twice in one day, wasn't feeling very well. He began to reflect on how weak his attention to Miao Anyun was before, so that he actually regarded such a cruel guy as a loser! Dylan couldn't help but shudder as he watched Miao Anyun remove Warner's jaw so neatly that he couldn't pronounce the spell.
Looking at Miao Anyun, Dylan now only thinks that he is inscrutable.
The more I get in touch with him, the more I feel like he is hiding his clumsiness. If this is just the tip of the iceberg, then how much is he hiding? Dylan couldn't believe it.
