Anna walked over to the demon who was meditating and said, “Mage Raymond, I’m done resting, let’s continue!”
Hearing Anna’s words, Rothgarr opened his eyes to look at her and smiled slightly.
Anna’s back was chilled by the demon’s smile, and she soon realized that this was not her illusion.
“Too slow. By the time your spell is cast out, your enemy will already be before your eyes retrieving your life.”
“Where are you attacking? Are your eyes useless? You can’t even see where I am?”
“Anna, your attack is so boring that I want to sleep.”
“Angry? A weak attack makes your anger worthless.”
“…”
Anna was really going crazy now.
What kind of person was this!
A university professor mocking an elementary school student for not understanding trigonometric functions? You are a professor, was it meaningful to mock a pupil like this?
From the expression of the demon, Anna saw that his answer was: very meaningful.
He couldn’t harvest her soul, and couldn’t blame her for seeing through him with her ‘cheat code’, he could only blame himself!
This was already Anna’s third round of recovery after exhausting her mental energy. She was sweating, panting, mentally exhausted, and she still had to be emotionally attacked by the demon. She was miserable.
She could only comfort herself. At any rate, this kind of special training was very effective, and she could clearly feel her progress. If she was a three-star mage now, she could definitely land a hit on the demon.
Anna didn’t want to talk to the demon, and after finishing this round of training, she ran aside and rested.
Natalie approached with fear and worry on her face, and passed her a cotton handkerchief: “Anna, are you okay?”
Anna took it and smiled gratefully at Natalie. She wiped the sweat off her face and said, “I’m okay.”
Natalie glanced at “Raymond” not far away, and said with lingering fear: “I didn’t expect Mage Raymond to train people so strictly…If it were me, I would have long laid down and given up.”
“It’s good to be a bit strict.” Anna said against her conscience. She did learn a lot, but she was also really tired.
Natalie glanced at “Raymond” again and saw that he was meditating. She leaned in front of Anna and said very quietly: “Before I thought that Mage Raymond would invite you because he wanted to pursue you, but now I’m not sure…how can a gentleman treat his beloved girl like this!”
Anna chuckled. What gentleman, what beloved girl? Natalie really thought too much.
She also whispered: “My relatives had a little boy who was only seven years old. He always bullied the little girl from their neighbor’s house. The little girl cried and ran home to find her mother every day. Then the boy grew up. It was only when the little girl talked and laughed with other boys that he realized that he liked the little girl. He just didn’t know how to express his feelings, so he deliberately bullied her to attract her attention. It’s a pity that it was all too late when he finally understood. Because of his bullying, the little girl had a very unpleasant childhood. She has always hated him.”
Natalie was taken aback after hearing Anna’s story. Then she covered her mouth, showing only a pair of curious eyes: “You mean, Mage Raymond is actually the same as the seven-year-old boy?”
Anna denied it: “No. I mean, children should be studious and cultivate, not fall in love!”
Natalie, who was only fourteen years old this year: “…”
Anna secretly glanced at the demon. She didn’t know if he had heard her.
She really couldn’t bear it, and hoped that the demon could listen to this story and reflect on his childishness.
After this meditation was over and she had restored a great chunk of her mental energy, Anna deliberately walked over to the demon and said: “Mage Raymond, I have rested.”
Rothgarr opened his eyes, glanced at the sky and said faintly, “That’s it for today.”
Then he got up and walked back.
Anna quickly dragged Natalie to follow, in a good mood.
He really heard it.
Rothgarr did hear Anna and Natalie’s conversation, but he sneered at Natalie’s conclusion.
Anna needed a teacher to teach her, so he taught her seriously. Didn’t that satisfy Anna’s expectations of him?
Of course, under the premise that Anna had rejected him many times, he really enjoyed seeing her out of breath, clearly angry but unable to do anything about it.
Wasn’t he the same before? Angered by her but couldn’t kill her.
However, it would be a good thing for Anna to think that he was like that seven year old boy, and didn’t know how to treat the girl he liked.
He remembered that Balan once said, let a girl know that you like her; then you’ll have a unique position in her heart. Over time, she will also fall in love with you. As such, Balan always bluntly and enthusiastically expressed his feelings to the women he liked, and he always succeeded.
Although Anna was indeed different, he couldn’t express his “feelings” straightforwardly, but he could let her “guess”.
Rothgarr was in a good mood when he got on the carriage, and he even felt that he might be able to complete his goal ahead of schedule.
