Chapter 393
After all, Selina is a high-ranking member of the empire, and the intelligence information is not so behind. It is likely that she already knew the news before she came back.
The sword master's momentum calmed down a little and he sat back in the main seat.
"What are you doing standing there stupidly? Why don't you sit down quickly? Aren't you tired?"
"Huh? Ouch!"
Rafael breathed a sigh of relief and sat aside. As a result, his mother poured her a glass of water and drank it.
"Tell me everything that happened along the way, including what you encountered just after you disappeared. Everything is detailed."
"Huh? But Mom, I'm still hungry."
"I've already asked the cook to make it. It's all what you like to eat. Why are you in a hurry?"
The atmosphere between the mother and daughter suddenly became extremely relaxed, and they sat together and chatted.
After listening to Rafael's description of what he saw and heard in Glow City, Selina couldn't help but sigh: "Maybe this is the darling of the times?"
Raphael quickly finished half of the cheese sausage and asked, "Mom, are you talking about that smelly... um, Rin?"
"Otherwise, who else, surrounded by holy healers, sword masters, or even brave men, might grow up to have the ability to change the world."
"Just him? Humph."
Raphael was a little unconvinced and angrily poked the cherry tomatoes on the plate with his fork.
"He is obviously a very bad character. He always likes to be sarcastic and sarcastic towards others. He never says a nice word. Why can such a person become the Holy Son?"
As she said that, she suddenly remembered something and blinked: "By the way, have you heard of the Sage?"
Selena, who was having an elegant meal, paused her hands, raised her head and looked directly at her daughter: "Sage, why do you suddenly ask this?"
"I will go to Holy City with them later, and we will occasionally chat together on the way. Your Highness Lina..."
Speaking of this, Rafael was a little hesitant and didn't know whether to continue talking.
She didn't know whether Lina's identity needed to be kept secret, but neither Rin nor Elise seemed to care.
Selena wiped her mouth and said, "It's okay to know, but you can't spread it to anyone else. Everything you should know will be known naturally, and there's no need to hand over what you shouldn't know for discussion."
Rafael understood: "So mom, you know."
"?"
Startled by Selina's sudden sharp gaze, Raphael quickly changed his words: "Mother, why is the reputation of the sage not obvious? When I was studying in school, there were only a few entries in the history books."
"The main reason is that they appear too rarely. Basically, sages are born every time there is a big event. Their class provides them with almost omniscient abilities, but they do not have a relatively strong power to protect themselves. They keep a low profile in order to protect themselves. It’s normal to live in seclusion and not be famous in history books.”
"So, something big is going to happen soon... Well, it shouldn't be a war between humans and demons. The two sides have been fighting for so long and it's become normal. We don't see sages coming to the world from time to time."
"Why else would I want you to stay around?"
Speaking of this, Selina put down her knife and fork and said with a headache: "Now the empire is in turmoil over the seizure of reserves, and there are still many forces muddying the waters. The outside is not much better. I am afraid that you will be used and harmed by people with ulterior motives. "
"It's okay, Mom, I'm very strong! There's no problem in protecting yourself, even without a magic weapon."
Rafael wanted to persuade his mother again, but Selena forcibly changed the subject: "Tell me about you and the boy named Rin, how did you and the boy named Rin end up like this, and what happened just now."
The Thunder Sword User was extremely angry and began to chirp.
After hearing this, Selina was speechless for a long time, and finally she choked out one sentence: "If Ophelia and I hadn't known each other for many years, I would have thought that the church had deliberately done this to drag us both into trouble."
"How is this possible? Why would you help Xiuxundan so much?"
"There are also those who are seeking death, I'm afraid they will also target you in the future."
"I'm not afraid." Rafael said confidently.
Selina heard this and narrowed her eyes: "You really don't need me to teach that boy a lesson for you? Your reputation will be ruined if this matter spreads."
Raphael shook his head repeatedly; "No, no, no, he won't spread the word. At most, he will use this matter to mock me. And my level is much higher than him, so I can teach him a lesson."
"You are obviously very aggrieved and yet you still want to speak for him. My daughter, you must like him, right?"
When Rafael heard this, he felt a chill on his back, his head turned into a rattle, and he looked like he had seen a ghost.
"Mom, this joke can't be funny at all! How is it possible! He's just a playboy! He already has a fiancée, and he's also stepping on several boats, whether it's Emilia, Lina, or A very beautiful girl is having an affair with him.”
With that said, Raphael slapped the table: "Even if I join the church to serve the goddess, I will never like him!"
Selina looked at her suspiciously, and then breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her daughter's firm tone.
Rin actually sounds like a good person, but he is too carefree, and his daughter cannot afford to suffer this loss.
After the meal, the two sparred in the training ground. The main reason was that the sword master wanted to check whether the thunder sword user was slacking off.
"Not bad, a bit of progress."
Throwing the sword back to Raphael, Selina praised and encouraged him.
"That's right, your daughter and I will never slack off in training, and I often compete with Xiye in Glow City."
Rafael naturally wouldn't say anything embarrassing about himself, and he looked a little proud on the surface.
Selina wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "After a few days of rest, you leave the Imperial Capital. I have something for you to do."
Rafael was shocked and froze on the spot, then hugged his mother in ecstasy.
"Really?! Are you finally willing to let me go out to practice!?! You're not lying to me, are you?"
Selena rolled her eyes at her and pushed her away: "You smell like sweat, go away. If you don't like it, then stay at home and read the magic book."
"I am willing! Whatever you say, I will do my best."
"Two things in total...and one little thing by the way."
After Selena pulled her to sit down, she said, "The first step is to go to the Star Weaver Islands in the Ten Thousand Mirrors Continent and find the Star Weaver Witch to bring me a letter."
"The second thing is to go to the Kingdom of Gioral and see Queen Giolal bring me another letter. Then she will attend the canonization ceremony of the Holy Son as my representative and congratulate the princess and the Holy Son on their wedding."
"Oh."
Rafael nodded: "What's one more thing?"
"Go find your homeless father! Just tell him that if he doesn't come back next spring, he will never come back."
Raphael scratched his golden hair and nodded slowly.
To be honest, she hadn't seen her father in two years, and she almost forgot that her father hadn't come home yet.
Yes, that's right, compared to Rin whose father said goodbye and whose son smiled, Elise and Xiye who had never seen their father since birth, Raphael had a relatively normal father.
Of course, it's just relatively normal.
Her parents are childhood sweethearts, her mother is a sword master, and her father is a scholar of ruins. The latter can be said to be powerless, and the family has always been dominated by strong women and weak men.
Because of his work, and perhaps because he couldn't stand his mother's dominance, his father spent most of his time away from home studying relics and rarely came home. He would often drag people home with gifts and letters.
Raphael had little impression of him, but the relationship between father and daughter was not bad when they got together. It was just that his mother was by his side most of the time when he was growing up, so it was easy to forget his biological father.
"Okay...I know."
…
On the other side, Rin was already standing with the dean and deputy dean of the college, talking about the previous attacks.
This is a necessary report and a reminder to the college to increase security.
The death-reporters are becoming more and more rampant, and it is not impossible to attack the academy in order to retaliate.
As for why Raphael suddenly appeared and disappeared suddenly, Rin didn't say a word, and the college didn't ask any questions, so he just let Rin leave.
Rin pulled Elise to the front of the dormitory building, and happened to see Emilia coming downstairs after questioning, so he took her to sit on the bench behind the fountain.
In winter, there is no water in the fountain, so there are no students here, so it is quite quiet.
Elise said while eating: "Xiao Lin, why don't you stay in the palace, it's the safest place. The guy who attacked us before ran away, and he won't give up."
"Don't worry, he can't escape. I've pinpointed his location."
Elise opened her mouth and stuck out her spicy tongue.
Emilia listened to the whole process on the side, stopped feeding Eevee, and tilted her head at Rin.
"Why, no, call the stinky fox and kill him."
"Don't be in a hurry. Play the long game to catch the big fish. I don't believe that he can successfully sneak into the royal capital and the academy alone, and can also arrange formations. According to the previous behavior style of the Death Teller, there must be an accomplice."
Emilia blinked her eyes, not wanting to use her brain, and quickly focused on the grilled and smoked chicken legs in the box, grabbing them and chewing them with relish.
"We are searching for him the whole time now. If I were him, I would definitely stay away from the limelight for a while and then join up with my accomplices when the security is not so tight, so we don't have to be anxious."
"Oh."
Elise's eyes were shining, and she slapped her with a blow out of habit.
"Xiao Lin is so smart...uh huh."
Before he finished speaking, Emilia blocked her mouth with a half-eaten chicken leg.
"Eat, Moji."
Bad cats express their jealousy through bullying.
Rin glanced at her and said with a straight face: "I want to eat quickly, and I have to supervise your tutoring after eating."
Elise smiled and said: "I will also help Emilia study hard. You can't retake this magic exam? If you fail the exam and apply for graduation, others will laugh at you."
Lord Brave, when she thinks about the piles of equations and the symbols of XY Alpha Beta, she doesn't even know these guys, why does she have to get acquainted with them?
The chicken wings in my hand don't seem to taste as good as before.
After that, the brave man had to undergo an hour of hypnotic tutoring. He couldn't doze off, otherwise the dried salted fish might poke into his mouth, not to mention how painful it would be.
In order to get rid of such pain, Amelia had to force herself up, barely turn her head, and pretend to study hard.
While Rin was praising her for finally being willing to learn, Fei Miao hurriedly said: "You damn arrogant girl, go to bed. There are silly roe deer here, that's enough."
Rin shook his head: "I'm not sleepy yet, and I have to watch you study to feel at ease."
Emilia was so anxious that her eyes almost turned into cat eyes. Just when she was anxiously wondering how to persuade Rin to leave, a green lightning flashed in her head.
Fei Miao, whose brain was already confused, did not think too much and continued to persuade: "Go to Lina! You should talk to her about these things today."
Rin was suddenly moved, remembering that he had made an appointment with Lina, and he would go find her as soon as Orlan's matter was resolved.
Lina also specifically said not to worry about the time difference, she would be waiting for Rin in the room these days.
The silly roe deer was shocked when he heard this, and looked at Amelia with wide eyes, as if he didn't recognize her.
Is this... is this still the shameless cat she knew who loves to dominate other people's fiancés?
She would actually push her husband to another woman!
Is studying really so scary?
But before she could react, Rin's hand was already caressing her head. The silly roe deer subconsciously narrowed his eyes and gently rubbed Rin's hand with a happy expression.
"Next, this stupid cat's study will be left to you. She must learn the content of the first chapter today."
Looking at Rin's doting and new look, Elise felt her head was dizzy and nodded repeatedly: "Leave it to me! Don't worry, little Rin!"
It wasn't until Rin disappeared into the room that Elise realized what she had said before and puffed up her cheeks.
I was scolding meow in my heart before, but I didn't expect that I would do the same thing in the blink of an eye.
Emilia shook her dizzy brain, which was almost shut down, and quickly closed the book.
"Good night, Elise, go to sleep."
"Hey? But I haven't finished studying yet!"
Elise quickly reached out to grab Emilia, but the nimble Hero Meow dodged her.
"Anyway, don't listen, Roe Deer."
"Uh-gu-gu, no, I told Xiao Rin that Emilia is not allowed to cheat! Study hard and go to bed as soon as you finish the first chapter. It's true. It only takes one hour to learn." ”
Brave Meow ignored Cricket Roe Deer and directly picked up Eevee and flew towards the bed.
Just the next second, she was grabbed by an arm stretched out from the void and dragged back to the desk.
"Oh my, are you tutoring? Senior sister, I am very good at giving lectures and tutoring for others. Since it is a matter assigned by junior brother, then I will help the little girl."
Seeing the sudden appearance of Qi Yu, Elise's eyes lit up, and she quickly handed the book in her hand to Qi Yu, regardless of those small "personal grudges".
The Lord Demon King tied the useless cat to the chair while flipping through the book casually, with the same disgust on his face as Rin.
