Unexpectedly, the next period of time was much calmer. There was no killer, no conspiracy, and not even the slightest trace of the butcher's people could be seen.

Inside Wolf and Spice, Ivan was holding a cup of hot tea, and the steam was floating upward.

It has to be said that Xia Luo is the most skilled tea maker he has ever seen, and the quality is much higher than those in the teahouses in the royal city.

"Pretending." Helena snorted.

Ivan really doesn't know how to taste tea. After all, he didn't have much time or extra energy to do such a thing before.

"Cough...cough cough."

Ivan didn't quarrel with the candidate nun. I don't know why Helena always laughed at him. Maybe the nun was still upset about kidnapping her in the first place.

But for Helena, this is also a familiar performance with Ivan. The posture of the candidate nun in front of different people is often different. In front of the elders, she is a well-behaved and sensible girl next door, and in the Holy See, she is a pure and innocent angel.

, but she often doesn’t hide her deviance in front of her friends.

It’s not that she is living with a mask, everyone here is the most real Helena.

There was a smile in the corner of Xia Luo's eyes. Ivan and Helena seemed to her like a pair of happy enemies.

"Well, Charlotte, your smile is like my aunt." Helena said to Charlotte who was smiling happily behind her.

"Xia Luo, are you thinking about something strange again?"

"Xia Luo Xia Luo, you can shout smoothly."

When Helena came to the store and heard Ivan say the word "Charlotte", her inner surprise was no less astonishing than the stage play "Lovers Become Brothers" she had watched.

At first, Charlotte told Helena that it was best not to let Ivan know her name.

Helena didn't understand why Charlotte always didn't like to have contact with others, but she still did it, so Helena, like Ivan, called Charlotte the shopkeeper lady all day long.

As for how this guy Ivan knew, that is worth investigating.

She didn't understand what Charlotte was thinking. But the nun had never seen through her. Even though the two could be considered friends, Helena had never seen Charlotte take off her robe until now.

"Are you jealous?" Ivan raised his eyebrows.

"What do you have to be jealous of?" Helena rolled her eyes at Ivan.

She stood up, hugged Charlotte, and gave Ivan a provocative look.

Well, I really can’t do this myself.

Ivan sighed.

In recent days, he would try his best to find time to visit Wolf and Spice. After all, the butcher's matter was a problem, and no one knew when they would come to visit him.

Xia Luo seemed to have some concerns that prevented her from taking action. According to her, saving Ivan that time was already a big risk.

But the butcher seemed to have disappeared, and I didn't see any revenge from him. Sometimes Ivan also wondered if the other party didn't care about this shop at all.

Before the butcher's revenge came, the relationship between Ivan and Charlotte became more and more familiar.

Xia Luo is actually not a cold person. She is very talkative and knowledgeable. She seems to know a lot of secrets on the mainland.

The biggest change in Ivan's impression of her was that Xia Luo was also a sinister person with a vicious tongue.

This point is frequently shown in the daily communication between the two people. This is definitely something Ivan did not expect. Xia Luoju

However, like Helena, they are all black when cut open.

They are indeed a pair of good friends.

"In two days, our college's magic test will be held. I guess I won't be able to come."

"Are you really a magician?" Helena opened her mouth in an exaggerated manner as if she knew some shocking secret.

"What do you mean? Didn't you already know that?" Ivan's face darkened.

What does it mean to be a true mage?

"Look at how you usually look like a spellcaster?" Helena mocked.

This is true. Spell casters usually wear loose mage robes and hold a gorgeous staff in their hands.

As for Ivan, in order not to affect his quick movement, he wore clean light armor and a coat, and hung his long sword on his waist. He didn't look like a spellcaster, but he was similar to those poor mercenaries.

Even in battles, he mostly used the swordsman's method. The battle with the masked killer made Ivan realize that his spellcasting level was the difference between heaven and earth compared with his swordsmanship. If he had used long swords from the beginning,

He might not lose to the dead killer with his sword.

There was no way to refute what Helena said about Ivan. He would only wear robes as much as possible in the academy. After all, he didn't want to be too conspicuous in the academy.

"It doesn't matter, don't worry, we will take care of it." Xia Luo downplayed it, but she had always been like this, and it seemed that nothing was worth making her emotional.

Ivan nodded.

After Ivan returned to the Magic Academy, Hill ran over, still looking cold.

"The old witch is looking for you."

Hill has always called Andrea that.

"good."

Ivan was a little happy, not that Andrea came to him, but that Hill was finally willing to talk to him. Although his attitude was still very bad, Ivan at least saw hope of thawing.

Seeing Ivan leaving, Hill sighed.

This idiot!

"Old demon... No, Principal Andrea, are you looking for me?"

"What did you want to call me just now?" Andrea appeared behind Ivan, with a scary expression on her face.

"No...nothing."

"Huh, I'm too lazy to argue with you."

"Hehe..." Ivan gave a sly smile, "Let's talk about things. Why did you come to me?"

"You also know that the college's assessment will be held in a few days..."

"What's wrong?"

"Regarding this assessment, several college senior officials have submitted applications that if you fail one of the requirements, you will be kicked out of the Magic Academy."

"ah?"

"I'm not sure why I suddenly targeted you. Maybe I was bribed by someone behind the scenes."

"Bribery?" Could it be the employer of the masked killer? A trace of suspicion flashed in Ivan's heart.

"Maybe, but as long as you are strong enough, they won't be able to embarrass you at all."

"You put it quite simply..."

"They have no way to target you in the future. They can only embarrass you in the actual combat assessment."

Ivan nodded, indicating that he understood.

"In order for your assessment to go smoothly, I can help you." A smile like a little devil appeared on Andrea's face.

Here we go again! It’s this smile! This familiar smile made Ivan shiver.

"No, no need." The smile on his face was very forced.

"You're welcome." Andrea put away her staff and walked towards Ivan.

Ivan was about to cry, his body could no longer move. He had long known that this old witch had no good intentions at all.

"Stop struggling, your magic power cannot resist my magic power."

Ivan only felt that his head was getting heavier and heavier. When he closed his eyes, Ivan only saw that Andrea had opened the secret door of the laboratory.

"Something went wrong?" At some point, a shadow appeared behind Andrea.

"You feel it too?"

"Secret Fire is also a little too excited..."

"Well, I don't know why the secret fire suddenly became so active." Andrea frowned.

The sudden activation of the secret fire disrupted her plan. If Ivan's body had not been expanded by various forces, the expanding magic power at this moment would have burst his body.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a chaotic force."

"Stop talking sarcastically here, I need your help. What kind of magic power can you release with just this puppet?"

"Who do you think I am?!"

"Although you are a faceless puppet, I just want to see you look so confident."

The lab is full of magic circles drawn by Andrea, which are normally invisible. As the main magic circle emerges under her feet, the rest of the auxiliary magic circles gradually light up.

"What an exaggerated gesture."

Andrea glanced at the shadow and said, "These are only 108 amplification circles. I carved more in Guderis's laboratory."

"Then I'll have to visit another day."

"Let's talk about it then. I don't know when I will go back."
