I'm Shenji, what are you doing?

The candles on the candlesticks gave off a faint light, illuminating the room, which was predictably filled with angels. The paintings hanging on the walls, the carvings on the wardrobe, the ceramic figures on the shelves, and even the glass lampshades all have angels. Pass

The world-renowned Gryvan Ashbern thoroughly implemented his interest in angels. The entire castle is filled with angelic elements, even the guest rooms where guests are entertained are no exception.

This is Gray's room, and she is sitting on the bed in the center of the room. Shinji sat on the sofa on one side of the room, bent over and writing and drawing on the coffee table.

After Hisashi Hanano announced his last words, the two began to wander around the castle for several hours, visiting every corner of the castle before returning to their guest room.

Two people, one room - the guest room corresponds to the invitation letter, and one invitation letter corresponds to one guest room. Of course, there is a servant room next to the guest room, specially prepared for the servants brought by the magician.

But Shinji didn't use it. It's not that he wanted to take advantage of Gray. The girl at home didn't even bother to get into the bed, why should he attack the girls outside? What's more, she is a descendant of Arturia. With this relationship, there is no way Shinji would do anything extraordinary.

The reason why Shenji and Gray shared a room was entirely due to safety concerns.

Gray is very strong. In terms of combat power, there is no one stronger than her in the entire city except Shenji. But Gray has an extremely serious flaw. She lacks combat experience and can only rely on her body to punch and charge, so it is easy for others to find out the details.

In a real fight, she could fall into anyone's hands - except for the eight-year-old Rosalind. Shenji promised that Weber would ensure Gray's safety. Unless he lost his mind, he would never let Gray live alone in a strange castle.

As for why he brought Gray here even though he knew there was danger, it was of course for training. This was the tradition of Scathach's lineage.

"Good, done."

Shenji threw away the pencil, twisted his body and stretched on the sofa, then threw the roll of paper on the coffee table to Gray on the bed.

"Come on, help me see if there's anything wrong."

Gray caught the scroll and opened it carefully. On it was a pencil sketch of the internal structure of "Strip City".

"Hey, kid, you've been busy for so long and you're actually drawing a map?" Yade put it on the bedside table and asked.

"Yeah, what's wrong?" Shenji leaned lazily on the sofa, reaching into the backpack beside him to fumble for something.

"I thought you had solved the mystery."

"I'm not Weber. Solving puzzles is not my strong point. I prefer doing things with my hands rather than using my brain."

"I don't see that you are quite self-aware."

"Nonsense, I'm not you - you have the ability, you can solve it."

"This is not my strong point." Yade is also a bachelor, "but just giving up like this, I always feel a bit unwilling."

"Who said you should give up?" Shenji smiled mysteriously, "Do you think I wandered around the castle for so long today just to survey the terrain?"

"Then you are -"

Shenji did not answer directly, but said with a smile: "Gray, remember this sentence - 'There are specializations in the arts'. Everyone has their own area of ​​expertise. If Weber goes to teach, and I go to fight with people, everything will go smoothly. On the contrary, everything will go well. Come here - do you think Weber can block Miss Luvia's gem-cursed bullet?"

Gray shook his head.

"So professional things must be done by professional talents. We just need to wait and wait for professionals to solve the mystery."

"But what does the other people's unraveling have to do with us?" Gray didn't understand.

"Girl, let me tell you one more important thing - Weber, myself, and even the entire El-Meloy classroom are actually outliers in the magic world. The mainstream of the magic world is the law of the jungle, dark and cruel, and fighting whenever we disagree, Murders are very common, just like what you experienced today. Believe it or not, I am definitely not the only one waiting in the dark. Once someone really solves the mystery, it won't take long for a war to break out and involve everyone. It’s a chaotic battle. Rather than being passively involved, it’s better to take the initiative, and it’s never wrong to have a few extra hands in everything.”

Perhaps it was because Shenji said a bit too much that Gray couldn't digest at the moment, or perhaps because what she saw and heard was very different from her previous life, Gray sat on the bed blankly, motionless.

Shinji snapped his fingers, awakening Gray from his chaotic thoughts, and continued.

"Don't be anxious if you don't understand, take your time - remember one thing, it's never a bad thing to be prepared in advance. If you can't accept it and think you should abide by Grevin's last words, we can help solve the mystery then. Man, let’s get some reward by the way.”

"...Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh???" Gray was stunned again.

Adelaide next to him laughed out loud: "I didn't expect it to be like this, idiot Gray."

"No matter which choice you make, you first need to have enough strength, otherwise even protecting yourself will be a problem - there is no right or wrong in power, the key depends on how people use it. I am stronger than Qingxuan and Luvia, so I can give Even if they teach me a lesson, it won’t hurt them. If I’m not strong enough, do you think I can still sit here and talk to you intact?”

Gray shook his head and nodded again: "I understand."

"Understand what?"

"I will practice what the instructor teaches me."

"Sure enough, you're not stupid at all - here's your reward." Shenji finally took his hand out of his backpack and threw out a white cloth bag.

"What is this?" Gray quickly caught the bag. The bag didn't look big, but it was heavy.

"This is the rune of life. Before going to bed, put a piece next to the pillow and activate it with magic power. It will help relieve fatigue. You have exercised a lot today. If you don't use this, you will inevitably get back pain. If you have nothing to do, go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow. exercise."

"Thank you, instructor."

"That's it, I'll go wash up, and you can carefully recall my two battles today. I'll hear your thoughts tomorrow morning."

"Yes, instructor."

Amid Gray's lackluster response, Shinji walked into the bathroom with his backpack, closed the door and stood in front of the mirror. He raised his left arm buried in the relic and opened a barrier around his body.

"She is a really good student, so we can't let her see what happens next. It will affect her image very much."

The backpack was opened, and as expected, it contained the pocket coffin, surrounded by a row of medical blood bags.

The moment he pressed his hand on the coffin, an ominous blood-red light filled the air. Shen Er's expression suddenly became ferocious, his eyes were cloudy, and he kept growling like a wild beast in his throat.

He couldn't wait to grab a blood bag, bit it open hard, let the blood soak into his mouth and throat, and quickly spit it out with a "wow" sound. After repeating this several times, Shen'er's expression returned to normal. He wiped his mouth and patted the coffin.

"Bah, type O blood tastes so bad. When will this kind of chronic torture end... When you get better, I will settle this account with you, so you must get better soon, my princess. .”

PS: Well, let me say something in advance, the second master is not a vampire, not a vampire, not a vampire, the above. (Even if you want to become a vampire, you have to enter the prime period. Becoming a vampire means that the body is fixed, and the second master is not fully developed yet.)
