When it was time for dinner, there were only Baiyi and Mia in the dining room. Eating the bread that Baiyi bought from outside, Mia asked curiously, "I think I heard that Sister Dale is back? Why isn't she here for dinner? "
"She made a mistake and she's being punished by me," Baiyi replied coldly as he passed a piece of bread that was covered with jam to Mia.
Instead of taking it, Mia shook her head and asked, "Why are you punishing Sister Dale, Mr. Hope? She's usually very obedient to you... Did she make you angry? " She ran to Baiyi's side and shook his arm as she advised cautiously, "Why don't you … Ask her to come over for dinner first? It's already so late, Sister Dale must be starving. Let me play with my pigtails for you, okay? Don't be angry, okay? "As she said that, Mia took the initiative to push a pigtail into Baiyi's hands.
To be honest, he was not angry at Tisdale. She was a good girl with good ideas, but she was too naive. It was also because of this that he could not let Tisdale foolishly take the risk.
"Have a good meal first." Baiyi let go of Mia's ponytail and forked a piece of fried egg into Mia's mouth. "We'll talk about her after we finish eating." His words were not only meant for Mia, but also for the Merchant in the Void. The Merchant had been begging him for help ever since the beginning.
"I beg you, Sir Hope! Please save Undine! I can't bear to see such an excellent junior fall into the hands of those barbarians! Even if you have to kill her, please don't let those barbarians taint her … "The Merchant's voice was already tearing up.
In the face of such a plea, Baiyi could only sigh helplessly and replied, "I understand your feelings, Sir Merchant. It's not that I don't want to save her but how do you want me to save her? I'm not sure if the Soul Link between me and Mia is as limitless as I thought. The Northern Wasteland is just too far away from Arfin City so I don't dare to take the risk. I can't bring Mia with me. This is not only a matter of the little girl's safety, but it will also affect our entire escape plan. I can't risk the opportunity that we've been waiting for for thousands of years. "
Baiyi's words were so reasonable that the Merchant could not find any reason to refute him. All he could do was to sigh in the Void and spread his negative energy, causing everyone's mood to become heavy. Even Mia, who was in the real world, seemed to be affected by the atmosphere. Sullenly, she hastily finished her meal and pestered Baiyi to go and see Tisdale.
"Can Mr. Hope forgive Big Sister Dale?" On the way up the stairs, Mia did not forget to ask, "If there's really no other way, let me be punished together with her, okay?"
"Let's see what she thinks first. I'm doing this for her own good." Baiyi replied in a low voice. Mia's attitude could not help but remind him of what Tisdale had said before. If it was not for the fact that she took the same huge risk to save Mia, would the Voidwalkers even have the opportunity to break through?
When they entered the room, Tisdale was still frozen on the spot by the Binding Spell. Baiyi first lifted the spell and passed her the food that he had left for her and said, "Sit down and eat first."
Tisdale quickly wiped away the remaining tears on her face and rubbed her reddened eyes hard. Lowering her head, she did not dare to let Mia see her expression. She did not take the plate nor did she sit down. Instead, she just stood there with her back straight.
"Big Sister Dale? Why are you crying? " Worried, Mia ran over and held Tisdale's hand tightly. Concerned, she said, "Mr. Hope is not angry at you anymore. Can you eat first?"
Gently stroking Mia's head, Tisdale did not answer. Instead, she turned around and gave a deep bow to Baiyi. With a voice that sounded like she was about to cry, she said in an exceptionally determined tone, "I'm sorry, teacher. I've let you down. No matter what, I have to save Sister Undine! Even if... Even if you no longer acknowledge me as your student, it doesn't matter... "
"YOU!!!" Her words instantly infuriated Baiyi. He could not understand how the usually obedient and obedient Tisdale could become so stubborn and capricious. How dare she threaten him?
"I'm sorry, teacher …" Tisdale's body trembled slightly, "Big Sister Undine has been very kind to me. After my father passed away, it was all thanks to her care and help that I was able to hold on until I met you. I also promised her that when she was caught, I would save her just like how I saved Mia. That was a promise between me and her, just like the promise between me and you! Now that she is really in danger, I can't stay here no matter what and let her suffer alone … "
After listening to her words, Baiyi took a deep breath in an attempt to calm himself down. At the same time, an invisible pressure began to spread out from his body, causing Mia, who was filled with questions, to not dare to open her mouth. Instead, she hid behind Tisdale and peeked her head out to look at Mr. Hope who had suddenly become a stranger to her.
In the face of such an invisible pressure, even though Tisdale was terrified, she still clenched her teeth tightly. Even though both of her legs had begun to tremble, she still stood motionless on the spot, relying on her own determination to confront the Fifth Walker.
"Forget it." The Archmage in the Void could not stand it anymore so he said, "This is Tisdale, the Tisdale that we like and admire. Her loyalty and perseverance are not only for you but also for her friends. I believe that if Mia-chan were to face the same predicament in the future, she would also save her friend without hesitation, right? No matter how dangerous it is … "
"She has a heart that is truly loyal. Don't let such a heart feel cold again," The Archmage said in the end.
Shaking his head helplessly, Baiyi dispersed the pressure from his body and returned to his usual self that the two girls were familiar with. He knew that he had lost this time. His powerful strength had lost to his strong heart.
So, he asked in the Void, "I plan to accompany her to the Northern Wasteland and bring Mia with me. What do you guys think?"
"I object!" The Lich was the first to speak up, "We can't use the opportunity that we've been waiting for to accompany a little girl, no matter how cute and outstanding she is!"
"I object as well!" The Painter chimed in, "This is too risky! If you were at your peak, you wouldn't have to say anything but right now, you're only at the Intermediate Level. You won't be able to protect them!"
"I agree!" After the Archmage said that, he turned to the Painter and asked, "Don't you think you're underestimating my student? He's the Fifth Walker after all! Since when did you have the right to question his strength? "
"I agree as well!" The Sorcerer agreed with the Archmage's opinion, "Proper training is the most effective way to increase one's strength. It's also a good opportunity to train Mia. As for the safety issue, I agree with Sir Archmage. Those who don't know him should not overestimate his strength. It will only make you feel inferior."
"Even if Sir Hope's strength is strong enough to protect the two girls, I still object," The Thane said. "Because this is a meaningless thing. Who can guarantee that Undine will still be alive when they arrive at the Northern Wasteland? Sir Hope's trip might be in vain. It's a waste of time. "
"I agree with Sir Thane." The Incubus who rarely spoke on normal days finally spoke up when faced with a crucial decision, "Be it Undine or Tisdale, they have nothing to do with us. There's no need for us to waste our time on them."
"How is this a waste of time? That's the descendant of Sir Merchant! The descendant of our partner! It was a fresh life! If we don't use our power to save and protect, then what's the point of pursuing power? "The Paladin asked agitatedly.
Then, the Cavalier interrupted again, "I don't know why all of you are so conflicted on this issue. I'm very familiar with the Northern Wasteland and Sir Hope is also very familiar with it. This is just like taking a stroll in your backyard. Why are all of you so nervous?"
Following that, many more Voidwalkers expressed their stand. It was nothing more than making a fuss about benefits, emotions and safety. Everyone's words had their own logic to them so it was difficult for them to reach a consensus.
It was until the Second Walker, the Swordsman who was usually quiet spoke up, "Why don't all of you listen to Sir Hope's opinion? He's our representative, don't you think we should trust him more? "
The Void instantly became silent. Everyone waited quietly for Baiyi to make his final decision.
"I've decided. I'll bring the two little ones with me on this journey," Baiyi calmly stated his decision. Baiyi calmly stated his decision. "Perhaps some of you might think that this is a stupid decision that does not benefit you in any way, but I don't think so. You can't always follow the rules of self-interest. As a human, this time, I've chosen to follow my heart, and my power is what allows me to be so willful."
"I'm the Fifth Walker of the Void. If I can't even solve this little problem, then how am I going to deal with the bigger problems in the future?"
At the same time as he spoke, a strong sense of confidence was instantly transmitted to the hearts of every Voidwalker. Even the Fairy Walker who was busy playing her game paused for a moment and sighed with a smile, "You are indeed my dear. This is why I like you so much …" After saying that, the Fairy Walker continued to throw herself into the fierce battle with the Barbarian tanks.
