Chapter 43 One victory and one defeat
Resistance is indeed futile.
However, it was not without gains. Although Marian basically won a great victory in this confrontation, after all, things were repeated. Yi Ming, who was about to die, still refused to surrender. So with his hard resistance, Marian had to agree to his conditions: she could only stay with Lita, and if she left without authorization, then Yi Ming and Meallie would not be responsible.
So the battle situation was completely settled in this compromise confrontation, transforming from an overwhelming victory to a loss-making loss.
Obviously, neither side had any joy of victory. Yi Ming didn't want to be involved in such a boring thing, but he couldn't ignore the orders of the principal. Marien had great power. Unfortunately, she had no power in the academy. The so-called status was higher than reality. Rejecting her was not practical. Even if it was there, it would be a few years later. But the principal was different. Yi Ming didn't want to put a long-term future in just one or two boring freedom theory. He had already expressed his rejection tactfully, but since the principal did not agree, what's the benefit of tearing apart? Do you have to wait for someone to use his identity to suppress himself? Could it be that he could just pat his butt and leave at that time? In this world, Yi Ming had no irreconcilable conflicts with the ruling class, and he didn't want to deliberately create irreconcilable conflicts. If you want to use others or be used by others, it would be better to make others feel that they can control it.
"Why do I have to live with this magician? You're just trying to make trouble on purpose! Right?"
"That's right."
Faced with Marien's aggressive and angry question, Yi Ming simply confessed his thoughts. He had known that he would not have suggested that this woman go to the college director. After listening to Marien's analysis, he thought that this woman could still grasp the overall situation at least, but he didn't expect that her resentment would be so strong. As a result, not only did they feel unlucky, but they also made themselves like an idiot.
"I'm not willing to help you. In order to avoid causing trouble for us, I naturally have to limit your actions. Since you are so afraid of death and want to be protected by us, then be obedient and stay with Lita. You are a magician, at least you can have the ability to resist the other party's attacks. And think clearly, we are also for your own good."
"What's for my goodness!"
This woman was indeed very fierce after she returned to her nature. Yiming looked at Marien who glared at him fiercely and thought. He had seen such a woman before, but to be fair, Mealie, who had "lady's elegance" on her lips all day long, was indeed much better than Marien. He carefully compared the scene when he first met Mealie, and then looked at Marien now. He quickly realized that even as a noble lady, the gap between people was indeed far.
Just as the tug-of-war was about going back and forth, wherever there was oppression, there was resistance. So in the end, everyone had to accept Marian's opinion - she could not stand living in a small room like magic, so she asked everyone to move to her magician's residence. Considering that since the other party could attack Marian anytime and anywhere, and fighting would indeed be in the way of fighting in a place full of people, Yiming nodded and agreed to Marian's request, but then put forward other opinions, that is, Marian must completely obey their orders and not resist.
As the saying goes, wherever there is resistance, there is suppression.
“Brother Yiming and Sister Marien seem to have a bad relationship…”
(Maybe.)
Mealie stood aside, staring at Marien who was angry at Yiming, and Yiming who was indifferent. She felt a little uneasy. Her intuition as a woman and her sixth sense that was much more keen than ordinary people made her notice something that even the person involved did not even notice. It was as if Marien was so stubborn to pursue them - to be precise, she was stubborn to pursue Yiming. What she did was obviously not as she said. If she really hated Yiming, she could stop seeing him and stay away from him. After all, Yiming was not a playboy who chased them as long as a woman, and he was basically interested in people outside of her partners.
Mei Yali is very confident in her relationship with Yi Ming. Although half of the excuses for being a engagement partner are for fun and teasing Yi Ming, it does not mean that the remaining half is the same. If it is just a simple relationship between men and women, then Mei Yali may have already sorted out her relationship. However, the long reconciliation of time also makes her feel ambiguous about her. Especially in that kind of daily escape, almost in the closed life of the outside world, it is difficult for anyone to say whether they trust or love someone around her.
It can be imagined that if the escape life continues, then the two people don’t have to think about this problem. Under the pressure of that extreme environment, their needs and combination will become smooth things. Pressure always needs to be vented, no reason or cause and effect. But after coming to this world, everything happens differently. Without chasing, attacking and oppressing their existence, normal life comes back to the door - in this case, it is naturally impossible to let go of oneself and indulge in the way of the doomsday.
So when I felt that Mariana might not even notice her, a hint of anxiety inevitably flashed through Mayalie's heart.
"Sister Mayale?"
(Nothing, I think, maybe I'm a little tired.)
Mealie shook her head slightly, and said to Lita with a smile, if I could hear it, then she would definitely know that Mealie was lying clearly. With "structural coordination", she would not feel tired at all. Unless her ability disappeared, she would feel uncomfortable in extremely harsh environments like the desert. Now she is obviously not among them.
What exactly does Yiming think of me?
The question I just thought about now may be a bit too late, but after realizing this, Meyari couldn't help but start to fear. She always believed that in the team, she and Yi Ming were the people who had been together for the longest time, and their relationship could withstand any considerations - after all, after that, they were rescued by them and had a good impression of Yi Ming. However, except Meyari, Yi Ming seemed to have a vague attitude towards everyone else. At that time, this made Meyari quite relieved, but now she couldn't help but doubt.
Iming treats herself without reservation, is it not because she regards herself as a woman but because of her sister?
Deep down, Mayale could not accept this position at all.
The rough knocking not only shocked Meyalie, who was thinking, but also prevented Yiming and Marian from ridiculing and scolding each other without reason. Marian showed a very dissatisfied expression and glared at the door. After all, this is the magician's residence, and disturbing this randomly is simply disrespectful to the magician. So she walked up to open the door angrily, and wanted to vent her anger that had not won victory from Yiming.
But the people outside seemed to be more angry than her.
"Take those two people!!"
A man with dark skin and a horn on his head stood at the door, his eyes red like blood, and what he said made Marien wonder.
"Moka! Have you taken the wrong medicine?! He actually came to me to make trouble?! What happened?!"
"Don't make excuses, I know, those two people are inside, hand them over! I'm going to tear these two people into pieces!"
“This is the college.”
Marien lowered her face and said coldly.
"It's not a tavern in a slum, nor a villager in the countryside, Moka. Don't you take law and the college president seriously? Or do you want to be dropped out of school?"
"you…………!!"
Being blocked by Marien's words, the black-skinned man named Moka couldn't say anything. Yes, Marien was right. This is the academy. It is not the bar in the arena or the slums. If anyone dislikes him, he can cut an axe and then slip away cleanly before the guards arrive. This is a holy land where magic is learned, academy, and the supreme magic place of the empire.
Yi Ming whistled in surprise. At this time, Marien was much stronger than the quarrel that had no nutrition just now. It seemed that this was the way she became serious. But after seeing Yi Ming, the man pointed at him in anger.
"It's this man! He injured Yulian!"
"Yu Lian?"
Marien swept over Yiming with some confusion. After she separated from Yiming, she immediately went to the principal's place, so she had no idea what happened in the Green Tower.
"Did you hurt her?"
"Who is Yulian?"
Yiming had no impression of the name.
"In the Tower of Green, the half-elves you bullied with cruelty and cruel means!"
A man named Moka, who looks like a seven-pointer like a human and a ghost, said viciously.
"So it's that 'one'."
Yi Ming's reply was hidden in the cotton, but the man seemed to not notice the small insult in his words.
"That's right, it's that half-elf! Do you actually bully a weak woman so much? Do you still have the backbone and dignity of a man?"
Yi Ming was stunned for a moment. The other party's honesty made him lose his fighting spirit. Originally, he tried to make the man angry by ridicule and then clean up a lot of him. But unexpectedly, the man not only did not hear the hidden meaning in his words, but even said something strikingly. So Yi Ming immediately lost the motivation to deal with him and began to explain in a normal cold tone.
"She insulted my most important partner and tried to hurt her. I just gave the woman a punishment that suited her so that she would not be so self-righteous in the future. I don't think I did anything wrong, and for me, the opponents came to me, and I wouldn't show mercy just because the other party was a woman and a child. That was an insult to them, and it was also my own stupidity."
With Yiming's unconcealed speech, Marien looked at him with a strange look, while Lita stared at Yiming's figure with admiration and longing. It is not difficult to imagine that every little girl had a prince riding a white horse as her shield and said something like "Don't hurt me the most important person...". Although Yiming was not riding a white horse, nor wearing armor, and the object of protection was not herself at all, just seeing such a scene made Lita very excited.
Meiali's cheeks were slightly red. She looked at Yi Ming and once again felt an incomparable sense of security and the happiness of being protected.
The man known as Moka was also stunned.
In fact, he did not see the whole process of the matter, but as one of the loyal suitors of the half-elves, Moka heard the half-elves girl "weak" (although in terms of body shape and gender, quite true) by a human man, and even trampled on her rumors, the anger of indignant and weak bullying and the nourishment of love broke out like a fire. So Moka immediately left the Dark Tower angrily, and after the chaos, he finally found the culprit who had already lived in the magician's residence.
Originally, in this straightforward and a little stiff man imagined that the murderer who bullied the weak would definitely be a courageless hooligan, so he was prepared to face a rogue or a cruel and cruel evil spirit. But Yi Ming's tough but direct words made him confused - it was a tough attitude that would stick to his principles and never change. It was definitely not a firm belief that ordinary bullies bully men and women could have. So he was stunned for a moment, but he didn't know what to do. Although he had also heard about the whole thing, a unrequited man could easily ignore or deny any negative rumors about the person he loved - this could not be blamed for this, men were like this.
"I don't think I did anything wrong, so I don't apologize for my actions for granted. Why, do you still have to do it?"
After Yi Ming finished speaking, he was confused by the man in front of him. Judging from the appearance of the robe on his body, he should be a magician like Marien, but the man wore steel guards that only warriors could use on both sides of his arms. Moreover, compared to Marien's robe that was long dragged on the ground and might trip if he stepped on it, the length of the robe was not that exaggerated, and he looked like a weapon was hanging around his waist, which did not seem to be done by a mage.
The scene was stalemate for a moment. If it were to continue, Yi Ming planned to give a few words to let the other party leave the scene, and then the matter ended. Moreover, they are busy now and have no time to bother with the matter coming out of thin air. But at this moment, a sharp voice cut through the air and rushed in without any obstacles.
"Kill this man! Moka!! He deserves to die for all his crimes!!"
Yi Ming frowned and saw the half-elf who had broken his hand and was now wrapped in bandages on his body pointed at him angrily and shouted at the man. Her voice seemed to contain some unknown magic. Moka's eyes became turbid, and his breathing was heavy, and at the same time, he reached his hand to the dagger on his waist.
Confrontation finally turned into a total war.
