Chapter 158: 3-person line

"Villi..."
Shikodi came to the viewing platform and saw his friend at a glance. When she was about to say hello, she suddenly found that there was another man who couldn't see clearly beside Willett.
He was wearing the robes of the Rasputin psychic school, but from the outside, he seemed to have seen it for the first time.
Shikodi frowned slightly.
The witch knew what happened to her friend. Due to some deliberate alienation and rejection, coupled with Willett's straightforward character, the tower master has always misunderstood her deeply. Except for herself, she has no one who can be called a close friend.
There are almost no people of the opposite who can be called "acquaintances"...except for the former Duncan David.
Regrettably, he finally chose to betray Willett.
Shikodi learned the news from the members of the Black Blood Society: In other words, this guy gave up the opportunity to get close to Wei Li himself, and even refused to be a friend.
Shikodi thought this was a very stupid decision.
Even setting aside emotions and considering only interests, it is very rare to have a trustworthy friend like Willett, who does not have to worry about betrayal, in the magic tower, and even in the wizarding world.
Although this kind of statement is a bit dark-if from Shikoudi's perspective, even if it is to deceive, she will do whatever it takes to maintain this friendship.
But now, Wei Li is actually talking and laughing with a member of the opposite that she has never seen before...
Speaking of this, Shikoudi suddenly had a wonderful intuition. She felt that this person's voice was a bit familiar--she was not sure if it was her own illusion, because it is not uncommon for people with this costume to be on the magic tower.
Shikodi used a handy little spell to recognize it. Although there was a disguise on his face, his voice did not change. It sounds like a young man of his own age.
……I should have never seen it before.
"You are here, poem."
After hearing the footsteps, the blond witch turned her head and waved to herself happily. She looked in high spirits.
Shikodi nodded slightly, walked to the two of them, and his eyes fell on Richard.
"Excuse me, this is..."
She asked with a smile, with a curious expression.
"he is......"
Willett's gaze turned to Richard.
"Allow me to introduce myself, Miss Miller."
Richard coughed dryly.
"I am Ricardo Isaac, just call me Ricardo."
Ricardo and Richard are similar in pronunciation; as for the surname, it is "Isaac" which is closely related to the name "Abraham"-he doesn't matter what he calls himself, anyway he chooses it casually.
"Mr. Ricardo...really?"
Shikodi blinked and said softly.
"I never seem to have met you on the magic tower before."
Richard was wondering if he wanted to find an excuse to let him go, his caring student had already spoken.
"Ricardo is the person next to the teacher. He used to stay at the core of the Great Temple. Few people would notice him."
"You said... he was a student of Mr. Rasputin?"
Shikodi was a little surprised.
"No, I'm the only student of the teacher." Willett shook her head, "but he is as simple as the teacher."
"...Just an assistant to some magic experiment."
Richard tried to pretend to be a little proud and replied.
This is not a lie. He was indeed helping Rasputin experiment in the beginning.
"That's it."
Shi Kodi nodded to signal that he understood, and exclaimed.
"That's already very remarkable. I think there are very few students who can do this kind of thing on this tower. That's the experiment of a legendary wizard. The chief students rarely have this opportunity..."
She suddenly seemed to realize something.
"Are you the kind of wizard who prefers to spend time in laboratories and libraries?"
"...Uh, right?"
"Your thirst for knowledge is respectable. But in this way, is it the first time for Mr. Ricardo to participate?"
"Yes."
"If this is the case, please be careful. The hunting moment is a very dangerous activity. Every year, there are young wizards who are killed on the way. There are many people who suffer serious injuries and leave life-long regrets because they did not receive timely treatment. ."
The silver-haired girl's expression became serious.
"We are going to the perilous wilderness. School leaders and leaders cannot protect us like they do on the magic tower. Even if it is a collective action, we must be careful in all things. Especially this time... Mr. Ricardo should have heard Did you say it?"
"...It's the fog demon, right?"
"Yes, it is a very troublesome evil demon, with unpredictable ability, has always been known for its silent action and hard to be noticed. The prey they are looking at is often not aware of themselves When he is dying, he is involved in the thick mist and disappears-that is actually a manifestation of being swallowed by the mist demon."
"……Thank you for your reminder."
Richard nodded.
Probably because he claimed to be Rasputin's experimental assistant, Shikodi regarded Richard as the kind of wizard who was not good at fighting, so he kindly warned.
For some reason, every time he noticed Miss Miller’s clear eyes like the blue sky, he had a subtle feeling, and he had recently let go of worries~EbookFREE.me~ but this emotion still did not improve.
"How about this."
While Richard was thinking about the reason, Shickedi continued.
"If Mr. Ricardo doesn't mind, I will arrange you by my side after the team departs, so that I will be able to protect you. Relatively speaking, I have more experience in dealing with demons..."
"……Eh?"
Of course it was not Richard who made the strange sound of surprise, but a certain Goldilocks.
Willett noticed that both of them were looking at him, realizing that he was a bit gaffe, and answered dryly.
"However, he belongs to the Rasputin School—"
"It's ok."
The silver-haired girl answered with a smile.
"It's just calling someone over, I still have this right."
This is considered modest. Shikodi is the team leader of the spring hunting. It can be said that the leadership of the entire hunting team is in her hands.
"It's not the problem..."
Willett hesitated for a moment, and opened the private communication with her friend.
"Little poem, Ricardo probably got the teacher's order to collect or search for'something' in the wilderness before he came out of the laboratory to participate in the spring hunt. Because the teacher had specifically asked him before leaving. You need me to look after him..."
"Is that right?"
The smile on Shikodi's face did not change at all.
"This is very easy to solve. In that case, you can come with Wei Li. If there is an inconvenient occasion, you can help me."
"Uh, what does this mean...?"
"I mean," the silver-haired witch said word by word, "in the spring hunt, the three of us need to stay together."
