“But what about the academy…” Daier asked hesitantly.
“Don’t worry, your Dean is a friend of mine.
He would agree to this,” Luo’er comforted her with a wave of his hand.
“Thank you!” Daier expressed her heartfelt gratitude.
“You don’t need to thank .
When I first ca here, you were the first person willing to help .
I think you’re a good girl.
According to our values, good deeds should be rewarded.
I can’t give you much, but at least I can make your life easier.” Luo’er said.
“I just did what I ought to do.
At that ti, I thought you were…
special, so I wanted to help you…” Daier, lowering her head, said shyly.
“Special, indeed.
I am from the Otherworld…” Luo’er pretended not to catch the implication in her words.
His love life was ssy enough, he didn’t want to complicate it further.
“Erm, if there’s nothing else, I’ll go to the Dean’s office first…” Luo’er felt uneasy being alone in a room with Daier, so he ca up with an excuse to leave.
“When will you guys finish your mission?” Daier asked anxiously from behind him.
“Erm, it shouldn’t take too long.
You needn’t worry.
We will co back for you after our mission is completed,” Luo’er contemplated before answering.
“Then I’ll wait for you!” Daier said from behind.
“Erm…
Alright, wait for !” Luo’er nodded and left without looking back.
He wasn’t sure about the status of the East City district now, he would have to ask Shariya in the office.
Luo’er figured that given Shariya’s temperant, Shariya must have handled everything; otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to et him at this ti.
He arrived at the Dean’s office.
The door was still wide open, seemingly waiting for Luo’er to walk in.
Upon his entry, Shariya, sitting in his usual spot, revealed no surprise.
“Captain Luo’er, I apologize for disturbing your rest,” Shariya said, slightly lowering his head.
“No need to be modest, Dean Shariya.
What brings here?” Luo’er asked respectfully.
“Ah, it’s about Fu’en and the Hound Gang,” Shariya indicated for him to sit, and then said, “I discussed with Sir Dulens last night, and he agreed to send the Temple Knights to crack down on the Hound Gang.
The conflict was basically over by this morning.”
“What’s the situation?” Luo’er asked, not concerned about the Church Court’s losses.
“The majority of the Hound Gang mbers were captured or killed, their properties, goods, and rchant ships have been confiscated, but unfortunately…” Shariya trailed off, looking down, seeming choose his words.
“You didn’t capture Fu’en?” Luo’er speculated.
“Yes, not only Fu’en, but we also couldn’t capture Azita, the leader of the Hound Gang,” Shariya said, guilt creeping onto his face.
“Where did they go?” Luo’er asked with a frown.
“We received information that they seem to have escaped by boat, planning to leave Odelanqi,” Shariya hesitated before revealing.
“If we can’t catch them, then kill them all.
In principle, we don’t need prisoners!” Luo’er stated firmly.
Actually, according to the headquarters’ opinion, they should try to catch Fu’en alive.
But Luo’er wanted him dead, so he intentionally bypassed the communication between the headquarters and the Church Court and negotiated alone.
Even if Luo’er didn’t want Fu’en dead, they might have difficulties intercepting him and his people.
These people escaped by boat, which was very fast.
Even if they pursued by horse, it would be hard to catch up.
The best way was to notify allies in the riverbank cities to intercept together.
“Understood.
If we get any news about them, we will inform you imdiately.
If we can’t catch them, we will kill them all.” Shariya nodded in agreent.
“Thank you for your efforts, Dean Shariya,” Luo’er nodded in acknowledgnt.
“It’s my duty,” Shariya said with a wave of his hand.
“Additionally…” Shariya suddenly rembered sothing, and then continued, “Sir Dulens hopes that Captain Luo’er can forgive his mistakes and give him another chance.”
“As long as he faithfully completes the tasks I assigned to him, I’ll consider the matter settled.
It was originally a duty of the Church Court, but it was entirely pressed onto the Advance Team.
We suffered two failures, which is very unfair to us.
So, I hope Lord Dulens can show the sincerity that the Church Court should have to maintain the fragile cooperation with the headquarters.” Luo’er said.
“Of course, thank you for your magnanimity, Captain Luo’er, allowing us the opportunity to make up for our mistakes.” Shariya replied.
“Dean Shariya, this isn’t your fault, so you don’t need to apologize for it.
I clearly see what has been happening these days.
I should express my gratitude for your help at that ti.” Luo’er said.
“Captain Luo’er, you’re too kind.
I’m also a part of the Church Court.
If the Church Court made a mistake, I am responsible too.” Shariya answered.
“If the Church Court was as sensible as Dean Shariya, we wouldn’t have had so many troubles.” Luo’er comnted, scratching his head.
“I’ll take that as a complint.” Shariya responded with a smile.
“Oh, by the way,” Luo’er suddenly rembered sothing, “Dean Shariya, um, Feliz wants to go to Yazhi City to learn about Earth’s culture.
She asked to bring her with when I return.
What do you think…?”
“If Feliz wants to go, let her go,” Shariya sighed as soon as Feliz was ntioned, “She’s not suited for magic studies.
Her talent is just too lacking and that’s sothing that can’t be redied.
If she is interested in Earth culture, that’s a good thing.
Regardless, she’s still my student, and I still hope she can find what she likes and strives for it.”
“How did she end up at the Magic Academy then?” Luo’er asked.
“Oh, the Uzistas Family hoped to have soone beco a mage and build a connection with the Church Court.
They have served the king for generations, and likely want an additional way out.” Shariya explained.
“So when mbers of the Uzistas family co to the academy to cause trouble…” Luo’er voiced his concern.
“You can rest assured, the Uzistas Family rarely interferes with her.
By the ti they do co to the academy, you’ll probably be in Yazhi City by then.” Shariya waved his hand, comforting Luo’er.
“Then I’ll take her with .” Luo’er said.
“Go ahead, the girl wanted to go with you in the first place.” Shariya waved his hand, a subtle smile on his face.
“Uh, well, she wants to study Earth’s culture…” Luo’er scratched his face awkwardly.
“Right, I get it!” Shariya nodded.
“And, there’s one more thing,” Luo’er kept scratching his head, hesitating for a while before saying, “There’s a maid nad Daier at your academy, who’s a friend of mine, I hope I can also take her to Yazhi City…”
“You’re asking for quite a bit, aren’t you?” Shariya exclaid.
“It’s not like that,” Luo’er hastily waved his hands to explain, “You see, her…
I think we may need her at our headquarters…”
“Then take her with you…” Sighed Shariya, shaking his head.
“You, don’t object?” Luo’er asked cautiously.
“She might want to go with you, right?” Shariya asked, knowing Luo’er wouldn’t force anyone without their agreent.
“Ah, about that…
I, I promised her…” Luo’er didn’t know how to put it.
“Captain Luo’er, we made a mistake and you want to take two girls from our academy, this…” Shariya said, lowing his head.
“Ah, it’s not like that…” Luo’er hurriedly explained.
“I’m just joking,” Shariya smiled, then seriously added, “As soon as we have information, we will notify you imdiately.
If you can catch them, bring them back for your disposal.
Until then, I hope you will be patient while waiting in the academy.”
“I got it, thank you!” Luo’er nodded, no longer speaking to Shariya and turned to leave.
What’s going on?
Even Shariya started making jokes about him, has his dignity declined to such a low level?
After thinking it over, Luo’er felt like this was all his fault.
Since arriving at Holy Heart City, with the situation involving the truth, Feliz, and now Daier, he had unwittingly beco a walking kidnapper of girls.
He didn’t harbor those kinds of feelings for them, but others might not see it that way.
