BXBX NOVEL 285 Chapter 285
Under the weird gaze of Harold, the boy who first spoke lowered his head and apologized, “It’s our fault, Mr. Vito.”
The boy next to him gritted his teeth, but finally said, “I’m sorry.”
After saying that, the two of them fled in panic, not daring to stay any longer.
Harold snorted and went back to Locke’s desk.
“As the two famous figures in the Imperial Mage Academy, I’ll treat you to the best restaurant in the imperial capital.” Harold said boldly.
“Sorry, I have something more important to do tonight.” Locke refused without raising his head.
Hearing Locke’s refusal, Harold didn’t get angry. He just sighed, “It’s a pity that you can’t revel in delicious meals tonight.”
“Well, we can take a rain check.” Harold said as he stood up.
Locke didn’t get influenced by Harold. He soon grasped the key point of this level 7 magic and then changed to a thunder magic book. According to Irene’s classmate, Irene should return to the academy in the evening, so he planned to read books here until night.
Time passed quickly. The blue sky outside the window was replaced by the night.
The moon and the common stars hid behind the drifting clouds. Locke walked out of the library, with two rows of pale yellow street lights extending into the distance..
“It seems a little late.”
Locke murmured to himself. He had been deducing one magic just now. He was so obsessed that he almost forgot the time.
Taking out the roses from the system space, Locke walked towards Irene’s residence.
Locke’s speed was very fast, he arrived at Irene’s residence in less than ten minutes.
As the disciple of the dean and a popular figure nowadays, Irene’s residence was naturally no worse than Locke’s.
The environment here was quiet and well-constructed.
However, there was no light in the room. Locke released divine consciousness and found that Irene was not at home. Then he sat down on the wooden chair outside the yard and put the flowers on the wooden chair beside him.
Locke was not in a hurry.
The sky was still covered with a thin layer of clouds, and the sound of nightingale came from the bushes in the distance.
A few students passed by from time to time in front of the courtyard. Looking at Locke who was holding flowers in his hands, they were not surprised. After all, everyone knew the relationship between Locke and Irene.
Locke just sat there quietly,
Half an hour later, the sound of frolicking gradually came from afar, closer and clearer.
Locke, who was sitting quietly, suddenly turned pale and stared at the end of the road.
As for the students passing by, their expressions were strange at first. They looked at the distance, then looked at Locke’s pale face, and then they looked like they were watching a good show. No, there were even many people smiling gloatingly.
There, the dim yellow lights were flickering.
Two figures walked slowly from the dim light. The girl had long hair hanging down her shoulders, and her figure was enchanting. Her snow-white skin was shining in the light, beautiful and charming.
The man was gentle and elegant, with a slender figure and decent behavior. His words were humorous and made the girl laugh.
The two of them chatted and laughed happily, and they were so addicted to the conversation that they didn’t notice the strange eyes of the people around them and slowly walked toward the small yard.
Finally, the girl stopped for a while and seemed to find the young man sitting on the wooden chair.
Under the dim light, the panic in the girl’s eyes flashed by.
“Locke, why are you here?” Looking at the calm young man not far away, Irene had an unnatural smile on her face.
“We just finished the training, so we went to have dinner.”
There was a gentle smile on Walter’s face all the time.
Locke handed the flowers to Irene, his eyes were extremely cold. “I just came to give you a bunch of flowers, but it seems that you don’t like this kind of flowers very much. Since the flowers have been sent, I should leave now.”
After saying that, he turned around.
“Locke.”
Irene stopped Locke. “I think we should talk.”
The night was dark. The lake reflected the orange street lamps on both sides and the two slender figures.
“Locke, I admit that I have changed during this time.”
Looking at the flickering lights in the distance, Irene said, “During this time, I have seen an unprecedented wonderful world. It turns out that buildings can be built so high, and human civilization can be so prosperous.”
“Until now, I finally know that there are so many talents in the world. The prosperity and wonders of this world make me intoxicated, which makes me feel how ridiculous I was in the past.”
Irene said slowly in a cold voice.
“So, do you think our previous reality is a mistake?” Locke’s face was still as calm as the serene lake in front of him.
Irene shook her head and looked at Locke. “No, I don’t deny our acquaintance. I admit that you gave me an unprecedented love experience when we got along with each other. But now we have to face this problem, that is, practice.”
“Locke, during this time, I have also seriously considered our relationship. Now that I think about it, my feeling for you may be just a kind of admiration for the strong, not love.”
As soon as Irene finished her words, there was silence again.
Locke raised his head slowly, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face, “I see.”
After saying that, Locke turned around slowly and strode towards the distance without any hesitation.
Irene tried to say something, but finally, she fell silent. She didn’t want to stop him. For them, now might be the best result.
The Imperial Mage Academy occupied a mountain range with a vast area.
Locke walked for a long time, and finally, he come to a mountainside. Looking around, clusters of lights flickered.
On the lawn, Locke slowly lay down and closed his eyes. He didn’t want to think about anything, and his mind was in a state of chaos.
The scene of getting along with Irene slipped through his mind… Shattered… Slipped… Shattered.
Until the end, there was no more picture of Irene appearing in his mind.
Not knowing how long it had passed, Locke heard a voice rubbing against the grass.
When Locke opened his eyes, he saw an enchanting figure slowly sitting down beside him.
“I didn’t expect that we haven’t seen each other for half a month, and you have already become a little man.”
Artemis casually leaned against the grass. Under the night, her figure drew a faint perfect curve.
Locke kept silent and didn’t answer. He looked at the scene in the distance quietly.
“Little Locke, are you depressed and losing your mettle because of this little setback? In this way, I will look down upon you.”
Locke rolled his eyes and said crossly, “I’m just a little depressed.”
The two of them just sat there.
