Heika's eyes couldn't help but fell on those chubby pearl birds, and couldn't help being lost in thought.
The principal's secretary stood aside and looked at the silent Heika strangely, and Cogne also wondered why Heika would be in a daze in front of the principal.
The secretary was about to step forward to remind him, but the headmaster looked up at Heika and frowned slightly at the secretary.
The secretary glanced at the black card, which was still in a daze, and quietly retreated to his seat.
"Little Mr. Albert? I think you must also be a dragon lover."
"Ah, oh. I'm sorry, Mr. Principal." Only then did Heika come back to his senses.
The principal gently spread out his palm, and a chubby bird jumped onto his palm.
Heika was apologizing for his ecstasy, so the principal walked up to Heika with the cute bird in his arms.
"Would you like to try it? They always have a natural affinity for people with good hearts."
As he spoke, the headmaster stretched out his hand in front of Heika. Heika looked at the headmaster's light-colored eyes, but he couldn't help but feel a little hesitant.
"Try it, I think you'll like it."
With a completely uncertain mood, Heika stretched out his hand a little bit towards the pearl finch that tilted its head to look at him.
The moment Heika stretched out his hand, the cute little bird jumped into Heika's palm as if attracted. Because the bird jumped too suddenly, Heika was still a little uncomfortable with the unfamiliar environment. Startled, he leaned back.
The headmaster stretched out his hand and patted Heika's shoulder lightly to appease him, and showed appreciation to Heika.
"These little guys have always been timid. Even every time Cogne comes to me, they seldom take the initiative."
Heika looked back at Cogne incomprehension, and then looked at the principal standing in front of the desk holding a teacup.
"why?"
"Are you asking why they are not active enough with Cogne?"
Heika was still looking at the bird in his hand, while the headmaster handed two cups of freshly brewed tea to Cogne and the secretary.
Both Cogne and the secretary took the teacups and nodded their thanks to the principal.
"Don't be so polite, Cogne, and Resedi. Forgive me, there are things everywhere, and there is no place for you to sit."
"Oh, and answer Mr. Abbott's question."
"The pearl birds in your hand were all hatched in the monster forest. So they are naturally very sensitive to danger. Anything that makes them feel dangerous will stay far away.
But you are very different, little Mr. Albert, and from the moment you stood at my door, these little ones seemed much livelier than usual. "
Heika listened to the principal's words, and then looked at the little bird in his hand, which was combing its feathers with a peaceful appearance. He frowned slightly, as if he didn't quite believe what the principal said to make a child happy.
"Don't little Mr. Abbott believe it?"
Hei Ka didn't say anything, but the principal was enough to see Hei Ka's doubts at a glance.
The principal walked up to Heika again and squatted down, stretching out his hand.
The bird combing its feathers lightly pecked at Heika's fingers, then looked back at the headmaster's broad palm, as if hesitating between two equally warm palms.
But in the end, after a brief hesitation, the bird returned to the more familiar palm.
The headmaster raised his eyebrows helplessly at Heika, as if lamenting that Heika was no longer so attractive to the little birds he raised.
Heika watched as the headmaster put the chubby guinea finch in front of Cogne. Cogne didn't reach out. The guinea finch looked at Cogne for a while with its nimble round head tilted, and then spread its fluffy wings and landed on Cogne's shoulder. superior.
Cogne turned back to respond to the cute bird. The bird pecked Cogne's ear with its beak, but quickly spread its wings and flew back to the other companions without any intention of staying.
Seeing the reactions of the little birds, Heika couldn't help but find it amazing.
"Don't look at them just pecking Mr. Kogne lightly. If it were Reesedi, they would not even be willing to get close."
The principal jokingly teased the serious-looking secretary Lethedi.
But Lei Sedi seemed to have gotten used to those little birds avoiding him, and the expression on his face didn't change.
"Mr. Principal, did you just ask me to ask me about the Luo Yagang Competition?"
The headmaster brought Heika a cup of tea, but with milk.
"Almost, if you are willing to share your thoughts with us, Mr. Abbott."
"The Luo Yagang competition is more interesting than I imagined. I made many friends while participating in the competition. They are all excellent and talented dragon trainers."
After Heika finished talking about his thoughts on the Luo Yagang Competition, he looked at the principal with a pair of dark eyes as clear as spring water.
"Only these? You met a lot of friends in the Luo Yagang competition?"
"Also, the climate in Luo Ya Port is very humid...the fish there are very fierce."
The principal looked at the children in front of him, and remained silent for a long time, as if he was a little surprised by Heika's answer.
"Well, it's a very special game feeling. You don't have any special... thoughts about your winning the Luo Yagang Championship?"
Heika looked at the headmaster with expectations, but he wasn't quite sure what he should say
Seeing that Heika seemed a little nervous because of his question, the headmaster held the teacup in his hand and touched Heika lightly.
"Don't be nervous, this is just to satisfy the curiosity of an old man who is busy with affairs and returned from a business trip after leaving the academy for a long time."
"Really?"
Heika always felt that after entering the Dragon Academy, everything seemed so formal and orderly. Let him not relax at all.
The principal couldn't help laughing happily at Heika's undisguised question.
"Hahahaha, you are such an interesting kid, Mr. Albert. In his letter, Cogne didn't mention that you have such a pure and straightforward character apart from your extraordinary talent for taming dragons.
It is completely different from the genius dragon trainer I imagined. I'm really surprised that Cogne would recommend you to enter Dragon Academy. "
"Isn't it okay for me to go to Dragon Academy?"
"No, it's a very good thing that Kogne recommended you to Dragon Academy. I'm only surprised that he can always use his discovering heart to discover different talents.
So apart from making a lot of friends in Luo Yagang, how did you feel when you won the championship? "
Hei Ka recalled his final match against Xuan Qi in the Luo Ya Port Competition.
"I'm very happy that I didn't let down the entrustment of Mr. Kogne and everyone. I didn't waste the quota of sister Rose's participation."
"anything else?"
"Also, I'm really lucky."
"Why do you say that?"
Hei Ka recounted the accident that happened between himself and Xuan Qi in the final. The headmaster drank his tea and listened with gusto.
"So, you think you can win the championship in the end. Is it mainly because of an accident at the critical moment of the opponent?"
Heika nodded.
"But I don't think so. It can force a quasi-knight, who has been dealing with dragons since birth, to make a mistake on the field.
Such strength, even the senior students of Dragon Academy may not be able to achieve it. "
Heika was a little surprised when he heard the headmaster say that. He has never met other senior students of Long Academy except Rose. I haven't even watched their match, so I don't know if other senior students of Dragon Academy can't draw with Xuan Qi.
"Xuan Qi is very strong."
Heika knew very well that Xuan Qi was stronger than Xiao Mo and Lang Yue. Even if it wasn't for Xuan Qi's sudden accident in that competition, perhaps he would not have won the championship at all.
But it might be like what the principal said, not everyone can make Xuan Qi make mistakes.
After Hei Ka tried his best, Xuan Qi made a small mistake. Before adding the finals, Xuan Yin gave Hei Ka the pre-match counseling.
That gave Heika considerable help and guidance. Otherwise, it is impossible for the black card to have a breakthrough in chasing the mysterious in a short period of time.
Heika will never forget the night of catching fish in the dense fog of Miyun Reef. Because the experience of being chased and bitten by those pink round fish who must revenge, is really terrifying with novelty, and the novelty also has the horror of being hunted down.
Only Xuanyin, who didn't know anything, dared to throw the black card into the Miyun Reef, which challenged the players' limits, and experienced the feeling of the Luo Yagang final in advance.
However, Heika was also grateful for that pre-match special training that even Xuanyin felt surprised afterwards.
Kogne saw that the principal and Heika had a good chat, so he stood by the side and listened to their conversation.
Resedi has no different senses for the black card, even though the black card is a student recommended by Cogne.
There are too many heaven's favored children in the Dragon Academy, and even if you pick any of them, they all have excellence that ordinary children can't compare with.
So even though the black card was the champion of the Luo Yagang competition and seemed to be liked by the principal, Lei Sedi didn't change his opinion on the black card.
"You are a very good student, just as Cogne said in the letter. I am very glad that you can come to Dragon Academy to learn how to become an excellent dragon trainer."
"The principal, can I... go back now?"
From the very beginning when Heika entered the hall of the Dragon Academy to listen to the training, he seemed a little inattentive. After arriving at the principal's office, I took the initiative to talk to the principal several times. Obviously, he wanted to end the conversation quickly.
The principal heard Heika's whisper but was full of worried emotions, and before he could realize that Heika wanted to leave, Lei Seti, who was silent on the side, turned dark first.
"Albert, what's your hurry?"
Heika turned his head to look at the stern-eyed Resedi. Although the other party didn't directly reprimand him for impoliteness, his tone was obviously questioning Heika's attitude towards the principal.
It's just an admitted student who has just stepped into the Dragon Academy, and he is so impolite when he is personally invited by the principal to talk. Even before the principal spoke, he intended to interrupt and reject the principal's kindness to talk.
"Resedi, it's nothing."
"Principal Shimaoki, this is very impolite." Reesedi insisted on bowing to the principal with his right hand on his heart.
