Simon shuddered violently. The drunkenness that had just arisen completely disappeared at this moment. He said excitedly, "F * ck, expert, is that you? So you're also a freshman. You left in a hurry last time, so I didn't have time to ask you for your autograph … By the way, how did you recognize me? I remember I covered my face that night. "
"Have you always been this talkative?" Even with Rob's usual calmness, he couldn't stand this guy's endless chatter. If it weren't for the fact that he needed his cooperation later, the quasi-magus wouldn't want to have anything to do with him.
The future superconductor, Your Honor, decided to make a long story short. "I can deal with Xavier, but it's not convenient for me to expose my identity, so I need you to help me buy two days. Hmm, if all goes well, one and a half days will do."
Simon sucked in a breath of cold air. "F * ck, who are you? Aren't you a little too powerful? Xavier is a seventh-grade magic tutor who has been famous for a long time, and he's also an expert in formations. You don't look much older than me. Wait, I seem to have heard rumors that the future guardian of the human race has left the Royal Magic Academy … Could it be true?!"
At this moment, Simon's expression couldn't be more interesting. He pinched his arm hard and said, "Oh my, am I dreaming? I'm actually studying in the same school as you, idol. Oh my god, this world is crazy. But then again, idol, why did you come to Gudilesi? Are you planning to destroy the arrogance of those guys in the Holy Roland Academy of Magic? "
"That's a long story. I'll tell you when I have a chance in the future. But for now, let's focus on solving the problem in front of us." Rob was getting a headache from this guy.
"Okay, okay. Idol, let me ask you one last question." Simon clapped his hands excitedly. "Why me?"
"Huh?"
"Aren't you hiding your identity, my idol? Why didn't you pick Gage and the others if you wanted help? Come to think of it, you've been with them for a longer time, haven't you? Compared to the others in the team, I'm just an outsider, so you chose me in the end. Is it because you saw some valuable qualities in me?"
"No, I just don't want to bring trouble to the others. Gage and Jenny are just ordinary people, so it's not good for them to know my identity. Also, I happen to know where the Grady Family is hiding in the south," Rob said calmly as he patted Simon's shoulder.
The quasi-magus was just stating a fact and didn't mean to threaten him. However, Simon could still sense the chill in his words. He smiled bitterly. "Idol, you don't have to be like this. You saved my life, so I won't betray you no matter what. Don't worry, I swear on the honor of the Grady Family that I will not reveal your identity to anyone."
… …
Everyone downstairs felt like they were waiting for their fate to be judged. Every minute and second felt especially long. After about 15 minutes, Lolo finally walked out of the room. Gage, who had been waiting anxiously for a long time, suddenly became spirited. "How is it? How is it? Do you have a way to deal with Xavier?"
Lolo's expression was a little strange. She didn't say anything and just stared blankly at Rob who was not far away. The quasi-magus seemed to have realized something as well and turned to look at Lolo.
Their eyes met. Rob's eyes looked very clear, which made Lolo's originally firm heart waver a little. However, she then recalled the words that Claire told her in the small room — trust your instincts.
There was a crazy thought in Lolo's heart. What if the person who had been protecting her was not the mysterious teacher? What if that person was by her side? Otherwise, she couldn't explain why he would always appear in time whenever she was in danger.
Ever since she met the young man in the small town, the two had experienced many things together. There were several times when she was in danger, and the first person she saw when she opened her eyes was Rob. It seemed that the guy had some kind of strange ability that could always appear by her side when she needed him the most. In fact, the more she thought about it, the more suspicious she found about Rob. His calmness and judgment that were beyond his age, his incredible knowledge, and his unbelievably strong mentality … All of these showed that he was different from the others. Such a guy didn't look like a nobody.
Thus, the intuition in Lolo's heart grew stronger and stronger. She just didn't understand why the young man was unwilling to tell her everything. The bond between the two had long surpassed ordinary friendship. However, Rob still didn't say a word about his secret. This guy who seemed to have no desires and only wanted to open a bakery and live a peaceful life seemed to be more complicated than she had imagined.
The girl took a deep breath. "Claire just told me that there's a hidden master in the freshmen arena, and this master is very likely related to me."
"You know other masters?" Gage was overjoyed. "That's great! Then let's find him quickly and ask him to deal with Xavier and the monster."
The girl shook her head and said, "I don't know. He's always been the one looking for me. I've never looked for him. Sometimes, I think that maybe … he's just by my side." Luo Luo stared into the girl's eyes as she said this.
However, the latter's reaction disappointed her a little. Rob's expression didn't change, and he only responded with an "oh".
The girl still wanted to say something, but at that moment, Simon's excited voice suddenly came from outside the door. "Hahahaha! We're saved this time!"
"What's saved?" Everyone's attention was quickly attracted by Simon who had just returned from outside. A look of curiosity appeared on the little golem's face.
The latter said to Lolo, "I just went to pee outside and met a strange person. Even with my strength, I didn't know when he appeared behind me. But he told me that he's your friend, and he asked me to tell you not to worry about Xavier. We just need to focus on dealing with the monster."
"What? You met someone else outside. Is he still there? Did you see his face? "Lolo was stunned for a moment, and then she asked anxiously.
"I'm sorry, that guy covered his face, and I couldn't see what he looked like. But he had a sword on his waist, and he should be a high-grade swordsman. He disappeared after saying a few words to me. That kind of movement skill might really be able to deal with Xavier."
