"Pop!"

This day passed again in endless learning and training. When the originally dazzling sun gradually set towards the west and turned into a misty golden red, Maka finally clapped her hands twice and announced that the whole day's busy work was over for the time being.

a paragraph.

"Okay, let's take a rest. It's time for dinner soon. I see everyone's hard work. You did a great job. Thank you for your hard work!"

He waved to his friends inside and outside the courtyard, indicating that everyone should go back to the wizard tower to take a rest. After all, work can be done more efficiently by combining work and rest.

And seeing everyone entering the door one after another, Maka winked at Delphi, who was walking at the end.

Upon seeing this, Delphi hurriedly slowed down and came to his side.

"Come to me after dinner."

Maka nodded slightly, and after whispering to her, she passed by her without leaving a trace, and followed everyone back to the tower.

Behind him, Delphi couldn't help being slightly startled when he heard this, wondering what Maka wanted to do with him.

"Is it related to Miss Granger's breakthrough today?"

After thinking about it for a while, she shook her head slightly and chased after him with some doubts.

…

The dinner that day was French sausage soup and a small amount of vegetable salad. To be honest, compared to the meals in the first few days, the meals in the past two days have obviously become much simpler.

Of course, the reserve of ingredients is actually quite sufficient. After all, Maca gave the servants of Chateau Blois a lot of time to pack and prepare. But considering that so many people may have to live on this island for a long time

Time, then while cultivating the fields, consuming it in a planned way has become an inevitable choice.

At least before you can find effective ways to supplement food, it is definitely necessary to save some money.

After hurriedly filling her stomach, Maka said hello to everyone, then went upstairs to do her own thing in the room as usual.

When he went up the stairs, Delphi glanced at his back subconsciously. Of course she wanted to follow him now, but considering Maka's cautious look just now that she didn't want others to know, she still pressed the button for the time being.

Overcoming the impatience in his heart, he continued to eat with a normal expression.

After a while, after finishing all the food on the plate, she put down the tableware, stood up from the table, and walked towards the stairs. Before leaving, she took the opportunity to say hello to Hermione and Luna.

Recently, because she has been guiding them to learn the rules and runes every day, her relationship with the two has become much closer. Just because of Delphi's past, even though it may not be her real experience, when she faces these people in front of her

, but often still produces a subtle sense of dissonance.

And this means that she may never be able to look at everyone with normal eyes, except Maka, who she has identified as her father from the beginning.

Delphi thought this as she walked up the stairs, sighing secretly on the way.

It must be said that everyone is very friendly to her and basically treats her as a friend. Unfortunately, when her elders suddenly become her peers, this feeling really makes her a little confused.

How to face it.

"Tuk-tuk."

Standing in front of Maka's room, Delphi reached out and knocked on the door, and then the door opened by itself. When she saw this, she immediately pushed the door open and walked in, and then closed the door again with her backhand.

.

"Coming? Come here!"

As soon as Delphi entered the door, he saw that Maka ignored the phantom furniture in the room and sat alone on the floor in the center of the room. In front of him, there were several sets of very strange wizard robes.

She found that two of them were very similar to the short wizard robes she wore when she first came to this era, but they were obviously ordinary robes.

"This is"

"It's a robe with a rune pattern drawn on it. Most of it has protective magic. It can be worn with an arm shield. The effect should be pretty good."

Maka shrugged, but without explaining too much, she saw him pointing to the floor beside her and casually said to Delphi:

"Of course, I obviously didn't come to you this time to show you the new wizard robe. If you don't mind, sit down and have a chat with me!"

"Um."

Delphi sat down next to him and didn't ask any questions, because she knew that sooner or later, Maka would take the initiative to speak.

Sure enough, soon, she heard Maka say with a little sadness:

"Delphi, I think with your intelligence, you should have already guessed my plan, right?"

"Plan? Do you mean to secretly leave here alone after guiding everyone to grow up?" This question swirled in Delphi's mind, but he did not say it directly.

Because she was thinking that if she guessed wrong, Maka might hide the real answer in her heart again and not tell her.

So, Delphi just said "hmm" softly, and then began to wait for Maka's explanation.

On the other side, Maka couldn't help but shook her head helplessly when she saw that she was still sitting there without speaking.

"That's why I said you're smart...Okay! I'll tell you, after all, even if I don't say anything now, you will definitely take action when you know it later." He said, paused for a moment, and then said,

"After Luna also finds her first-level rule rune, I should probably leave here."

"I knew it."

After Delphi heard this, she couldn't help but pursed her thin lips, but this time she didn't show any unpleasant expression to Maka.

Not for anything else, just because Maka took the initiative to tell her this time.

After a few seconds of silence, she said quietly:

"Actually, when I heard you say that you wanted to guide everyone to improve their strength, I already noticed that something was wrong. After that, I thought about it carefully, and then I thought that you might leave without saying goodbye. As I said, you

I'll be wherever you are, don't leave me behind again, okay?"

When Maka heard this, he immediately reached out and rubbed her hair, like a real father would. But then, he sighed again.

"I didn't want to do it this time, otherwise, I wouldn't have called you here. But... I'm sorry, Delphi, the two soul rules have become increasingly unstable in my body, and the balance between them is changing at any time.

It may be broken, and by then...if it were you, you should know the consequences."

"An imbalance in the rules of the soul?" When Delphi heard this, a look of surprise appeared on his face, "Then... let Uncle Blois help you seal it!"

In response, Maka could only shrug and said:

"It was just a rule before, but it was already very difficult for him. Unfortunately, he couldn't do it."
