Eighth Crown

Chapter 221: There is no trace of growth (revision)

Grey, Yvette, and Caleb quickly left the magic eye train and rushed into the depths of the icy forest.

Among them, Grey and Caleb are the main forces of offense and defense. The reason why Yvette keeps up is because she has the magic eye made by the Lehman family and has the ability to see the direction of the spiritual veins. Vein nodes, greatly reducing redundant work, allowing them to stay in the snow forest for a shorter time.

From the window of the guest room, Liu Xia looked at the distant back of Grey, and there was no turbulence in her heart. The expression on her face was like a pool of stagnant water as always, as if her previous words about Grey were false.

He walked out of the room and walked towards the second room where II was.

Room two.

After Liu Xia knocked on the door, Coles quickly opened the door for Liu Xia and let him enter the room.

The heating was turned on in the room, but under the erosion of the cold air of the ice and snow forest, it was almost the same as nothing.

II was sitting on the sofa with a cigar between his fingers, still puffing clouds and mist.

"The disciple is working hard outside, but I can't even help."

Second World turned his head, took a cigar, and said to Liu Xia with a distressed face: "Liangyi, do you think I am a failure as a teacher?"

Before Liu Xia could answer, he turned back and muttered to himself.

"The Clock Tower judges that I have the ability to teach students, so all kinds of geniuses and monsters are stuffed into my classroom, but every time I see those talented students ascending to the sacrificial position and the ordination position at a very fast speed, no one knows my heart. thinking about something."

"Envy, jealousy, sometimes I even hate their talents because they can easily do things I can't, my talents are so inferior, they don't even have one percent of them, if it wasn't for me If you teach students a skill, they don't even have an altar, and at most they just open a seat, which is better than a magic apprentice."

The saddest teacher is this.

He pursued the path of magic, but he was stagnant because of his inferior ability. Instead, he taught students who surpassed him one by one. At the moment when his students surpassed him, how much gratification was there in his heart, and there was another How much is envy, jealousy, no one knows.

"You're in a mess."

Lucia spoke out.

The figure of the second generation stagnated for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly, "I can see it at a glance, you really have the ability to observe human beings, as you said, I was disturbed by the words of that servant last night... "It's not usually spoken like that."

Normally, he was rational enough to hide all his negative emotions in his heart, but the barrier of his rationality was broken by the Servant last night, which made him doubt himself.

"Does the words of the Servant who calls himself Hephaestion really have such magic power to you?"

Liu Xia asked back: "Whether it's the stripping city or the Twin Appearance Tower, in my eyes, you are a very good person, knowledgeable and logical, even more so when you were in the Clock Tower, and your strength is far above you. The magician's dialogue is not at all timid, so, to be honest, I didn't expect you to be knocked down by three or two sentences like this, and I even began to wonder if you were El-Melloi II himself."

This was indeed what Lucia thought of El-Melloi II.

There are not many people who can make him praise. So far, apart from the unfathomable [two ceremonies], only El-Melloi II and Yoshiki Yasuki, the main producer of the Ghost Killing Team, can make him Think 'excellent' only.

"Excellent...then you really think highly of me."

II shook his head, lowered his head and took another cigar, "Liangyi, what do you think is growth for a person?"

"Go beyond your past self."

"Yes, surpass yourself."

The second self-deprecating smile, "Then I didn't do it at all. I was just like ten years ago, and I didn't make any progress at all. I was just as reckless, stubborn, ignorant, and self-righteous as that time."

Ten years ago.

That seems to be when II fought in the last Holy Grail War, when El-Melloe of the previous generation was still alive.

However, Liu Xia didn't know much about it, so she couldn't make assumptions easily.

After making a lot of negative comments on himself, the second fell into silence again, and his face became extremely depressed again.

He has been in this state since last night, and it has not improved until now.

It seems that if this incident is to be resolved by him, it is somewhat unlikely.

"Grow up..."

Liu Xia also lowered his head, and under the inner murmur, he also fell into contemplation.

"Conversely, can my current behavior be considered growth?"

At this moment, Liu Xia's heart had the exact same question as II's.

After he reunited with Grey, he has been acting as a character that meets Grey's expectations, so he will help Grey when he is troubled, and when she asks him for something, he will not because there is no benefit And refused, and took the initiative to stand up when Olga Marie had nothing to do.

The reason why when he borrowed the holy spear was a 'request' rather than a 'condition', because regardless of whether Grey agreed to lend him the holy spear or not, Lucia planned to help her unconditionally. Can be regarded as a windfall.

His original intention was to understand and generate feelings by acting as a character, and to understand his own psychological change process on the day of the Twin Towers.

But after this period of time, his heart was still as unwavering as before, and he didn't get the slightest emotion from it, and he couldn't even understand the psychological changes when he was in the Twin Towers.

This should be the same as the second generation, there is no growth.

…………

After ten minutes.

Through the window of the guest room, Liu Xia, II, and Coles found that Yvette and Caleb walked out of the ice and snow forest together and returned to the magic eye train.

After the two returned, the train roared again, and the wheels rolled slowly on the rails.

"Wait, what about Grey?"

The face of the second world changed in an instant, the decadence just now was swept away, leaving only nervousness and worry, "Grey didn't come back with them!"

Lucia narrowed her eyes slightly.

Even with his eyesight, he didn't see Grey's figure from the ice and snow forest.

"Two instruments!"

The second generation did not hesitate, and immediately made a serious request to Liu Xia, "I won't go out easily, and that Servant shouldn't easily go to war with the magic eye train, Grey, please!"

"I see."

Liu Xia nodded, then stepped forward and opened the train's window. Before the train accelerated further, he jumped out of the window and rushed into the snowy forest in the distance.
