The Dean Has Arrived

"It's finally over..." The magic power was about to run out, and Dorothy, who had been supporting herself with all her strength, fell to the ground with her feet limp, and the wand in her hand slipped to the side.

The girl looks very embarrassed now, her hair is messy and dull, her eyes are absent-minded, she looks like an Internet addict who has been fighting in front of the computer for days and nights. Even the magic robe, which has a defensive power comparable to that of ordinary leather armor, was affected during the battle and had many rough edges.

The black goblins who invaded the village at dusk finally retreated under the joint resistance of the halflings and Kamiyu. It's just that the halfling village also suffered huge losses.

At dusk, because all the people were lighting fires and cooking, the village's defenses were lax, and to a large extent, the defense was not even as strong as midnight. After being attacked suddenly, many houses were turned into a sea of ​​flames. In fact, nearly half of those who died were not killed by black goblins, but were burned by flames or suffocated by smoke.

"Are you all okay?" Among the four, only Riddle was in good spirits.

He asked the other three people.

Leaving aside Dorothy who had already fallen into a semi-conscious state, Kamiyu was able to hold on even though she looked exhausted. Tanis, on the other hand, was like a piglet that had been pulled out of the water, wet all over, lying on the ground with big characters, gasping for breath, as if he didn't even have the strength to speak.

If it weren't for the help of the top existence among the four mage apprentices, the number of halfling village battle deaths would have doubled.

"I'm fine..." Kamiyu calmed down and said to Riddle, "Student Taylor and Fatty don't have the ability to protect themselves. You should watch them here first."

As he spoke, he leaned on the academy-style wand and stood up with difficulty, as if he couldn't grasp the center of gravity, his feet swayed forward two steps before he stabilized his figure: "I will negotiate with the halfling village chief. Look, I always feel that there is something wrong with this black goblin invasion..."

"Are you really okay?"

Seeing Kamiyu's appearance as if he was about to fall down at any moment, Riddle hurried up to help him: "Besides, the village chief should be very busy now, or go back to the hotel to rest and ask tomorrow..."

"After a period of time, maybe they will forget some important clues... It's better to ask now."

Camille shook his head stubbornly, and pushed away Riddle's hand that supported him.

Although he looks very naughty and out of tune at ordinary times, in fact, Kamiyu is indeed the one with the deepest experience among the four little guys. He has been in the society for a long time, so he naturally knows the value of time limit, so he insists on going to see the halfling village head now.

"Wait a minute..." At this moment, Tanis, who had recovered from his strength, called out to Kamiyu.

He seemed to have no strength to support his huge body for a child, so he just threw the expensive magic wand in the direction of Kamiyu.

"Fatty, you?"

Seeing the wand rolled to his feet, Kamiyu looked at Tanis in puzzlement.

This magic wand is the most precious thing of Xiaopangdun. Since he exchanged it, he will not let go of it for almost a moment. No matter how much Kamiuridell and the others plead, they will not even let them touch it. Even when they entered the gate of trial and the conditions were in a mess, they did not stop the meticulous maintenance that must be done every day. What he did at this time was really beyond Kamiyu's expectations.

Little Fatty closed his eyes, and said as if talking to himself: "My magic wand is much more precious than the cheap ones issued by your schools, and I still keep the second-ring magic 'ring of sudden wind' that comes with her. It's useless."

"Tanis..."

"Seeing that you are like a soft-legged shrimp, I will take it as an insurance. If something happens, you can experience her power... The activation key of the 'Ring of Storms' is to touch the head of the staff Say the incantation 'Oz' when you are in the crystal, you know!"

After finishing speaking quickly like a cannonball, the little fat man turned his body on the ground with his eyes closed, making an expression of 'I'm going to sleep, don't bother me'.

"Thanks."

Kamiyu picked up Tanis' wand, and showed a hearty smile to Tanis whose back was turned to him: "My best friend."

--the next day--

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Halfling Village, the second floor of the hotel "Ghouchen Rose".

"How is everyone resting?" Kamiyu asked several others.

There was no accident on the way to visit the village head yesterday, and Kamiyu returned to the hotel in less than an hour, and returned the wand to Tanis by the way.

"It's okay." The little fat man yawned big, but he looked good.

"I feel that the quality and quantity of my magic power seem to have increased." Riddle looked excited: "Sure enough, what Professor Franken said 'actual combat is the best catalyst for progress' is correct!"

"I remember what Professor Franken said is 'practice, and recognizing your own shortcomings in the process of practice, is the best catalyst for progress'." Dorothy said indifferently, the girl's face has disappeared yesterday The fragile, refreshing feeling: "Please don't always equate artistic magic with rough combat."

Seeing that Riddle and Dorothy seemed to have a tendency to talk, if it was normal, Kamiyu would naturally watch the fun from the sidelines, but because there was still business today, he clapped his hands to force their attention Concentrate on yourself.

"Since you all look good, let me tell you about the information I got from visiting the halfling village chief yesterday."

In fact, Kamiyu didn't get any important information when he visited the village head yesterday, and only one thing caught his attention.

"Black goblins have kidnapped many halflings." The boy said thoughtfully, "This is totally illogical...I remember Tanis you said that black goblins are creatures with low intelligence, right?"

The little fat man nodded in response.

"Then what's the use of them kidnapping those halflings? Speaking of which, the timing of their sneak attack on the village is already inconceivable... Judging by this method, these guys have at least the wisdom of dire wolves. That's right!"

"In other words," Dorothy immediately changed her mind: "Do you think there is something strange behind the black goblin... such as a mastermind behind the scenes?"

"That's it." Kamiyu snapped his fingers.

At this time, there was another noise from outside the window, but compared to yesterday's evening, the noise this time was not as frightening.

Several people immediately ran to the window and opened it, and then saw several figures walking on the main road of the village.

"It's them!" Riddle was lying on the window sill, with an excited expression on his face: "'Princess of the Sky' Miss Teo and 'Beauty of the Lake' Miss Alisa! And the maid of the Dean! "

And Taniska Miyu and Dorothy looked at each other.

Even the top fighters among the students have appeared. It seems that things around here are not simple...
