"My current goal is to become a Magician," Lolo said in a serious tone.
"Why a Magician?" The Archmage could not understand the girl's determination to become a Magician.
"Because a Magician is the most powerful profession."
"Tsk tsk, what a simple and straightforward reason." Rob picked up a branch from the ground and stirred the charcoal in the fire. "What happens after I become a Magician?"
"Not only do I want to become a Magician, I want to become the most powerful Magician in the entire Dawn Continent," the girl said without hesitation. This seemingly arrogant idea did not suddenly pop up in her mind. Instead, it had been buried in her heart for a long time. Perhaps the rookie The Brave would recite it to herself every night before she went to bed. That was why she could blurt it out so naturally.
"That's not easy. You can't just rely on ambition to become a Magician." As the number one Magician in the human world, Your Honor, the future Supreme Magician, had a say in this aspect.
"It may sound cruel, but for a Magician, talent is the most important thing. Have you done a test? How is your talent in magic? "
Lolo shook her head. "My father did a test for me when I was born, but I'm not sure about the results."
"Oh." The future Supreme Magician Your Honor nodded. Rob did not think highly of the girl's talent. According to the rookie The Brave, she had been tested after she was born. If she was talented, her father would have sent her to the Academy of Magic a long time ago.
Of course, some poor families would delay their children's studies because they could not afford the school fees. However, judging from the Elven sword Lolo carried around, her family did not have such a problem.
Unfortunately, the test required special equipment. Otherwise, Rob could have done another test for the girl.
After understanding the girl's ambition, the Archmage couldn't help but become even more curious. "Why do you desire to obtain power so much?"
"I'm sorry, I can't tell you." The girl seemed to have something she could not say.
"It seems like you're in big trouble." Rob glanced at the rookie The Brave. Your Honor, the future Supreme Magician, was also in big trouble.
The young man was on the wanted list of a ninth-grade Supreme Magician and an eighth-grade Archmage. He might even be at the top of the list. It was exhilarating.
Although he managed to escape from the two old monsters with the help of the Third Prince and some luck, Rob did not dare to let his guard down. Your Honor, the future Supreme Magician, had always kept a low profile and did not get involved in anything.
In the past, Luo Bu would have investigated the matter of the Matthews family. At the very least, he would have studied the function of the magic device. But now, he did not want to attract attention. He killed Raul only because the apprentice magician had provoked him first. Luo Bu had gotten rid of this hidden danger for the sake of safety.
This time, the Archmage found that he could no longer stand by and watch. Rob felt strange. It seemed like he could no longer keep his cool when the girl was involved. Come to think of it, it was the same in the Dungeon.
Previously, he helped the girl out of pure guilt. After all, his father cheated her out of her tuition fees. But during the exploration, Rob had found a way to let the rookie The Brave earn a lot of money. In other words, he had compensated the girl once, and the two of them should be even now.
His rational mind told him that this had nothing to do with him. Maintaining his usual state of mind was the best choice.
But at this moment, Rob found that he could not make a reasonable decision.
"That … If you have any difficulties, you can tell me. I may be able to help you." Archmage said as he scratched his head. But then, he seemed to realize that with his current status, it seemed like he was bragging, so he added, "Don't look at me like this. Oh, I'm actually quite powerful."
The future Supreme Magus was humble for once. With his previous skills, he was not only powerful, but even Demain had to pay full attention to him. In the words of the vice-principal, "Your fighting style is challenging the common sense of a Magician. I've lived for so long, but I've never seen someone as difficult to deal with as you."
The slightest bit of carelessness could cause even an eighth grade Grand Magus to fail miserably. From this point of view, it wasn't too much of a loss for Maria, Raul, and the others to die in Luo Bu's hands.
But perhaps it was because he was used to a certain someone's pathetic performance in swordsmanship lessons, the newbie The Brave's understanding of Archmage's strength was still stuck at the stage of 'how many rounds can this guy last'.
But even so, Lolo still thanked him sincerely. "Thank you. I know you sincerely want to help me, but this matter is more dangerous than you think. I do not wish to implicate others. This is my own matter. It started with me, and it will be ended by me in the future."
"Oh, then I wish you good luck."
Since the newbie The Brave's tone was firm, Archmage did not insist.
After this slightly heavy topic, the two did not seem to know what to say. They could only sit there quietly, listening to the crackling of the fire.
Oh no, it seems like there's an awkward silence.
He remembered that the dean said that if such a situation occurred, as a boy, he should take the initiative.
The future Supreme Magus Your Honor felt that he should say something, anything, as long as it could break the current stalemate.
However, even though the young man was knowledgeable and could be said to know everything in the world, he did not have any knowledge on how to strike up a conversation with a girl.
After racking his brains for a long time, Rob finally managed to come up with a question. "Oh right, this expedition is almost over. When do you plan to leave Ryan?"
The moment he said this, the girl's body instantly trembled.
At this moment, Luo Luo finally realized that this expedition was nearing its end, and she had already gained enough, but why was she unable to feel happy?
So it was because of the impending departure?
Perhaps even the girl herself did not realize that until Rob asked that question, she had been avoiding this topic in her heart.
According to their previous agreement, when this expedition ended, their employment relationship would also end. Once they left this forest, the young man would no longer be her little follower, and she would no longer need to provide protection for a certain someone.
