The moment he fell, the levitation spell appeared in Augusta's mind. He had muttered the spell silently all the way on the unicorn in case of accidents, and now it finally came in handy. The only trouble is that Kefir seems to be afraid of him falling and hurting, so he has been hugging his waist vigorously. It should be noted that the weight of the body must be accurately calculated to perform the levitation technique. A slight increase or decrease in weight will change the combination of spell runes. Now Kefir is holding his waist, which is equal to Augusta's weight plus Kefir's weight. In just a few seconds of falling, Augusta couldn't complete the calculation of the reorganization rune at all, and could only make do with the spell that was originally prepared for him to float alone.
He chanted the spell quickly, and the spell was completed in an instant. The speed at which the two fell suddenly slowed down. It can be said that for a second, they were suspended in midair, but the good times didn't last long. The levitation technique couldn't support the weight of the two of them, and then it failed. Like the apple that hit Newton hundreds of years ago, they fell downward following the call of gravity.
thump!
A huge splash was stirred up on the river. Fortunately, there was a levitation technique to buffer them during the fall, so they didn't enter the water very fast. Augusta knows that if he can't swim, he shouldn't struggle, otherwise he will sink faster. The density of the human body is similar to that of water. He didn't carry anything particularly heavy on him. If he is lucky enough, he may be able to float to the surface...
Then he sank like a rock.
"Aogu... Gulululugegelililili..." When he fell into the water, Kefir wanted to shout, but the cold river water poured into his mouth immediately. He took a deep breath, plunged into the water, picked up the sunken Augusta, waved his hands and feet vigorously, and floated to the surface.
The current is very fast, if there is a waterfall in front of it, it will be bad. Kefir supported Augusta's armpit with one hand, paddled with the other, and swam to the shore in a standard dog-planing style. The current rushed him away from the direction several times. Fortunately, only the middle part of the river was deep, and the sides were slightly shallower. When he approached the shore, Kefir stepped on the river bed. He half-walked and half-swimmed to drag Augusta ashore.
"Your Excellency Augusta?" Kefir laid the magician flat on the shore and patted his face. The magician was motionless, his eyes were closed, and his face was as white as a dead fish.
"My God, what can I do! Your Excellency Augusta is drowning! He will die!" Kefir said to himself in a panic, "No, no, calm down, I have seen it on TV, if If someone is drowning, artificial respiration must be given..."
Kefir does not know first aid, and has never done artificial respiration, so he can only follow the advice of others. He straddled Augusta, straightened the magician's head, pinched his nose, mustered up his courage, and breathed in mouth to mouth. Augusta lips are cold and taste a little... damn! Don't think about these messy things! Kefir secretly warned himself.
After blowing a breath, Augusta still did not respond. Kefir was in a hurry. Try another puff! He took a deep breath and moved closer to Augusta, pursing his lips. But before he touched the magician's lips, he received a hot slap on the face!
Snapped!
"What are you doing!" Augusta opened his eyes, glaring angrily at the young werewolf who was riding on him as if wanting to do something wrong.
Kefir covered his face and said aggrievedly, "I can help you with artificial respiration..."
"Did you do this! The method is simply wrong!"
"Then what should I do... Or you can teach me?"
"Get off me!"
Kefir rolled aside and looked at Augusta timidly, for fear that he would slap him again if he got angry. Augusta checked himself briefly, and it seemed that he hadn't been taken advantage of. Apart from being drenched all over, having a sore throat, and a strange smell of sand in his mouth, there was nothing unusual.
He stared at Kefir, who quickly shrank into a ball to show that he was not malicious. Kefir's hat had already flown away during the fall, revealing a pair of furry wolf ears, which were hanging down in frustration at the moment, showing that the owner was in a low mood.
Augusta thought to himself: Although he caused the levitation technique to fail, he was the one who dragged me ashore, so he was credited... He waved at the werewolf youth: "Come here."
Kefir moved forward with hands and feet.
Augusta touched the red and swollen cheek of the werewolf youth: "Does it hurt?"
Kefir's ears pricked up.
"It doesn't hurt!" He replied overjoyed, then softened and looked at Augusta eagerly, "Actually, it's kind of..."
Several gullies appeared between Augusta's brows. "I... I was in a hurry, I didn't mean to—"
"Mr. Augusta—" A loud female voice came from above, echoing in the canyon, "Are you still alive—"
"Quintina! Come down, you two bastards! See if I don't beat you to death!" Augusta immediately forgot her restraint and cursed.
"Did you hear the unicorn! He said he was fine!" Quentina exclaimed grandiosely.
"Great! Thank God!" The unicorn's hypocritical voice also came from above, "Since it's all right, then I won't go down to pick you up!"
"Please go downriver, Mr. Augusta! The cottage is just down the river, within easy reach, and we'll meet there!"
"You two wash your necks and wait to die!"
Augusta got up angrily. He has already conceived more than twenty curses, which are enough to make life worse for unicorns and female vampires, and he regrets taking this damn vacation!
"What should we do, Your Excellency?" Kefir wanted to comfort the furious archmage, but he didn't dare to approach him.
Augusta clenched his fists tightly and let them go after a while. His wet clothes kept dripping, making him shiver. "Go downstream and wait for the hut... Make sure they look good!"
He raised his eyes, "Kefir, come here!"
The young werewolf folded his arms, shuddered, and stuck to Augusta's side. The magician murmured something in a low voice and snapped his fingers. The wet clothes on the two of them dried in the blink of an eye. Kefir exclaimed and grabbed his coat: "It's amazing, Your Excellency!"
"It's just a trick. What are you doing there? Let's go!"
"Obey!"
Kefir and the gloomy magician were very happy in his heart. Although he didn't show it on his face, his wobbling wolf ears exposed his heart.
"By the way, sir, what exactly did you want to say just now?"
"what?"
"You said 'I was in a rush, not on purpose—' and Miss Quentina interrupted you. What were you going to say?"
"Can not remember!"
"You must remember!"
"Shut up, shut up! If you talk too much, your legs will be broken!"
