Among the wards of the Second Magic Academy of the Hawke Empire, if we follow common sense, how could there be injured people in the wards of the school that has just started? But Enelise is an exception at this time. Now she has regained consciousness under the care of Irene. At this time, the little girl is lying on the hospital bed obediently listening to Annelotte's sermon. On the other side, Irene was dealing with her own medical equipment. It seemed that she had just changed Inelis's wound medicine.
"You really scared me to death that night." Annelotte still looks a little frightened to this day. This was inevitable. After all, she was just taking a walk after dinner. As a result, she casually walked around and found Inelise lying on the cold ground coughing up blood. She might even die soon. Anyone who thinks about this kind of thing would be scared, right
"Yeah, I was shocked that day too!" Irene said while changing Inelise's dressing: "You don't know the expression on Brother Regnar's face when he found me. He hit me directly from the glass wall of the restaurant. Those who came in had to save time even walking through the door. He was really anxious that day."
"Hey, I just wanted to give it a try..." Inelise stretched out her hand and scratched her little head. Although the expression on her face was a little embarrassed, she even felt a little painful because of the dressing change. But actually in her heart, Inelise was very happy. Because Annelotte, Irene, and Regnar were all very worried about themselves, and after being injured once again to prove this point, Inelise unexpectedly felt that it was worth it.
"Iny." Annelotte changed her expression. She looked at Inelise seriously and said, "After this incident, you should have learned a lesson, right?"
"Well, Yi Ni knows that she is wrong. Yi Ni will never use spells that she is not familiar with in the future." Yi Nili replied duplicitously. Although she almost lost her life this time, Yi Ni Li Si was surprisingly not afraid at all. She just felt anxious that she couldn't do well enough.
Magic, what kind of twists and turns did she gain the power? Now that Inelise has finally gained the ability to free herself from the definition of "useless little girl", how could she not hold on to it? Even if she takes a little risk, even if she gets hurt a little, Inelise doesn't care. The only thing she wants to do is to do something for Regnar.
Now Inelise is not worried about being abandoned by Regnar because of her uselessness or failure to respond to Regnar's efforts. Because she still understands that this is impossible. But she still wanted to be a useful person, and she still wanted to help Regnar. reason? No reason! No reason needed! Inelise simply wanted to do this. She didn't know why, but she just wanted to do it. It doesn't matter if you take some risks for this.
Annelotte looked at Inelise's expression and knew that there was no truth in her assurance just now. But there is nothing she can do now, what can she do? Is it to destroy Inelise's magic power? The only feasible way is to destroy Inelise's spiritual realm. Isn't this equivalent to killing her
"It seems that I can only watch over her a little more in the future..." Annelotte stopped saying anything to Inelis. She just sat and planned in her heart: "I need to give Regnar another explanation in the future. After what happened that night, the guy should understand the importance of restraining Yi Ni. And Irene, she will also work in the college, so let her take care of Yi Ni more in the future."
Annelotte thought about it carefully, and then secretly wrote it down in her mind. She looked at the magic clock in the ward and found that it was already noon.
Just when Annelotte was about to go back, Regnar also came to the ward.
"..." Annelotte rolled her eyes at him, and then prepared to leave without saying hello.
"Annie, wait, there is something I need to discuss with you." Regnar's face looked serious at this time, and he added: "It has something to do with what happened to Annie that night."
"What's wrong?" Annelotte originally didn't want to pay attention to Regnar, but after hearing the last sentence, she still chose to stay.
"It just so happens that Yi Ni and Irene are here, let's discuss it together." Regnar looked at the other two people, and then said bluntly: "That Hoffman has been found."
"Where's the person?" A dangerous light flashed in Annelotte's eyes. Although the direct cause of Inelise's injury was her reckless attempt to use metamagic techniques, the fundamental reason was still the guy named Hoffman's challenge to Inelise. Nelise, and... Regnar irresponsibly encouraged Inelis to accept the challenge.
"He's dead..." Regnar whispered.
Annelotte was slightly surprised when she heard this, but after hearing this, she also understood that something might be a little strange this time, so the Frost Girl waved her hand to set up a soundproof barrier in the room, and then said: "Say Go down."
"This morning, when a small vendor from the village who was going to Melinder to buy goods was peeing on the side of the road..." When Regner said this, he suddenly realized that it seemed inappropriate to say that kind of word in front of three girls.
"Get to the point!" Annelotte was really angry.
"Okay, okay..." Regnar shrank his neck, and he continued: "The vendor smelled a foul smell when... he was... then he looked for it out of curiosity, and then he found a body. "
"If it were normal, it wouldn't be surprising to find a corpse in this chaotic world." Regnar continued: "But he saw that the guy was dressed luxuriously, so he finally chose to report the matter to the Imperial City's City Protection Guards. After final verification, that person was Hoffman who disappeared a few days ago."
"..." Annelotte frowned, and then asked: "Has Joffrey admitted anything so far?"
"No." Regnar shook his head: "Even if the body was found, he still said he knew nothing about it."
"So has Hoffman's identity been figured out?" Annelotte then asked: "Since he is a student of the First Academy of Magic, then Hoffman at least has a certain identity and background, right? You haven't found out until now?"
"No." Regnar still shook his head; "Joffrey refused to reveal anything about Hoffman, and so far, I haven't found any nobles who were furious because of the disappearance of this Hoffman."
"Hmph! You look so good at pretending!" Annelotte said with a sneer.
"It must be Joffrey's trick." Regnar knew what Annelotte meant by what she just said. She was talking about what Joffrey was pretending to be.
The reason is actually not complicated: First of all, the purpose of recruiting students to the First Magic Academy is only to have rich and powerful people. Now that Hoffman's death has not caused dissatisfaction among any big figures in the Hawke Empire, there are two possibilities. One is that Hoffman was recruited to the First Magic Academy by Joffrey in his own name. The other is that the forces behind Hoffman are extremely secretive and powerful, and even the Military Intelligence Agency can't find many clues. Obviously, the possibility of the latter is almost zero.
Therefore, this Hoffman is probably a pawn placed by Joffrey himself in the First Academy of Magic.
And his purpose should not be difficult to guess. With Joffrey's petty character, he naturally wanted to find a way to get revenge after Kordak tore off his leg. But Kordak was rescued by the agreement between Manhattan and Larvin, so who should bear the anger of His Highness the Great Prince? Naturally, Regnar, who had the closest relationship with Kordak, took the responsibility.
So what is the best way to get revenge on Regnar? So why bother asking? Seeing how this guy was like a wild dog guarding his food all day long, not allowing anyone to touch those women, no matter how idiotic Joffrey was, he could figure out how to make Regnar suffer.
There are close exchanges between the two magic schools, and even the midterm and final exams of each semester are held together. And the examination content is usually conducted in the form of duel. Then as long as Joffrey uses a little more tricks, it won't be difficult to let the two designated people compete. When the time comes... it's hard to say what will happen during the duel.
Therefore, Regnar already understood all this on the way here. This was just a revenge planned by Joffrey against Regnar, and the reason why that Hoffman appeared that night. It should be that he first made enemies with Inelise in an unexpected way, and then it would not be difficult to understand that he would kill her in the exam duel.
But neither Hoffman nor Joffrey expected that Enelise's attitude towards magic would be so radical, that she would even dare to unleash unfamiliar metamagic techniques at will. The result was that the originally planned small friction turned into a major incident that almost forced Inelise to die.
Moreover, Regner guessed that even if things went according to Joffrey's plan, Hoffman would not be able to escape the fate of being secretly executed in the end. And this accident only accelerated Hoffman's death. The only difference is that Enelise escaped the fate of being killed because of her recklessness, although the situation this time was thrilling enough.
"Then what are you going to do?" Annelotte asked. Although her memory was not clear, Annelotte felt that if it was this guy's character, he would probably blush after knowing that someone wanted to harm Inelise. You should kill that guy first regardless of the cost, right? But this time Regner seemed very calm.
"Now that Joffrey has taken action, I have to take action." Regnar's eyes flashed with fierceness: "He wants to take away Yini's life, then I will take away everything from him!"
"You want..." Annelotte said hesitantly, she always felt that she had a bad premonition.
"I want to help Alexander!" Although Annelotte had already placed a silent barrier, Regnar lowered his voice and said, "I want Alexander to be the heir to the throne!"
"You..." Annelotte's heart tightened for no reason. Due to her loss of memory, Alexander was almost like a complete stranger to her. But even so, she still felt something was wrong when Regnar said that he would stand on Alexander's side.
But Annelotte had no reason, so the Frost Girl could only forcefully suppress the strange feeling in her heart.
"Whether I'm dealing with Alfred or Joffrey, I need an ally, and Alexander is more in line with my taste." Regnar pondered for a moment and then said: "But now, I think it's better to go with him. It would be best if Joffrey had a 'friendly exchange'."
