The sky slowly dimmed, and the rain continued to fall. The wind swept through the stone window, bringing coolness. The charcoal fire in front of me had become a little weak, so Yiming picked up the branches and pounded them again, making the flames become vigorous again. Except for him and Mealee, the other magicians seemed to have the means to resist the cold. Marian summoned several small fireballs around him, while Elinoa seemed to be completely afraid of such cold wind. According to her, because of her specializing in water elements, her body has a very high tolerance for water vapor, so even on such a cold rainy night, she is not at all

There will be any problems. Bell Roga's whole body was covered with white light, and she didn't seem to care about the raging cold wind. Even the lowest level Lita could use a small spell to keep her body temperature away. After that, everyone held a hearty dragon meat barbecue. Although the taste was not bad, it was not delicious. However, it seemed that the dragon meat did help the magicians. After taking a bite, each magician clearly showed an expression of feeling something. Unfortunately, it was completely useless for Yiming and Mealli. The meat was still meat and it did not turn into any other strange things.

"I really hope there is a soundproofing room somewhere here."

Yi Ming complained and took out his ears. Although he didn't know what the magicians were singing about, he practiced singing in the middle of the night... and could he not sleep?

Meyali did not stay with him. Lita's behavior after that was very strange. At dinner, she even ate several pieces of dragon meat in one breath until Marian couldn't see her drinking. Yiming could vaguely guess what she was thinking, so the heart-to-heart talk with Lita was left to Meyali to complete. If the situation was not good, she could also use "hint" to comfort her, which was not something Yiming could do. Moreover, he was responsible for the vigil tonight.

"Yiming, you haven't slept yet?"

"The howling of ghosts and wolves on your side is finally over?"

Looking at Marien who was walking towards him, Yiming stretched. Marien frowned, obviously very dissatisfied.

"Howling from ghosts? It's really strange to describe...Is my singing so ugly?"

"I'm on a vigil now."

Yi Ming pointed to his ears.

"So to me, your singing is no different from the noise."

The implication was obvious, which prevented him from focusing on the exploration around him. Marian was speechless. After all, Yiming was protecting their safety and he was not qualified to complain about anything.

The atmosphere became silent for a moment. After a long time, Marien asked weakly.

"You………and Miss Mayalie……………”

"We are already engaged, you won't know about this."

"……………………………………………………………How many are you planning to ask?”

"What kind of?"

Yiming felt that Marien’s problem was inexplicable.

"Of course it's a wife? A young and capable man like you will definitely be attracted by many women. I'm just curious and want to ask... It doesn't mean anything special."

"Can my wife marry many more?"

Yiming was shocked, but Maria seemed even more surprised.

"Are you planning to marry Miss Mayalie alone?"

“……………………”

“………………………………”

The two looked at each other speechlessly, and at the end, Yi Ming shrugged helplessly. It was obvious that the two obviously had a considerable gap in common sense in a certain aspect. And judging from Marien's statement, are all men in this world so happy that they can open a harem? If you want to marry a few?

"Of course it's impossible."

Yiming's guess was ruthlessly denied by Marien. She stared at her eyes in surprise, as if she was looking at a monster.

"I really doubt whether you are a person from this world. You don't even have this kind of common sense. Not everyone has the right to do this. Only those who have received the reward have this qualification. The Lord of Heaven has promised to give you a reward, and status is definitely indispensable. By that time you will become a member of the nobles. Do you have no idea about these?"

“…………So that’s how it is.”

Yi Ming nodded and said he knew, but he quickly gave a negative answer.

"But I still think that only Mealie is the best for me."

"so…………"

Marien sighed disappointed or sighed helplessly. But she quickly shook her head and turned around and left.

"Then, I'll go to rest, Yiming, be careful."

Yi Ming said nothing, just whistled to show his understanding. In fact, he had nothing to be careful. Unless the group of mice that had been hiding by them were willing to come to the door, they could only sleep pitifully in the wilderness and drink the northwest wind on such a rainy day. But he could eat barbecue and drink hot tea here, which is the difference. It makes people feel happy when they think of it, and Yi Ming never minds building his happiness on the pain of others. Thinking of this, Yi Ming looked out the window again, and under the dark night, he could see nothing.

Lita curled up in Meallie's arms, narrowing her eyes and enjoying Meallie's gentle hug, while Meallie just quietly stroked her head and said nothing.

"Sister...will you leave me one day?"

Then, Lita suddenly asked.

(Yes.)

Mayalie replied naturally, she gently stroked Lita's hair without any tension at all.

“…………”

Lita was silent, but she grabbed Mealli's hand but had more strength.

(Everything should be done, Lita. We also have our ideas and goals...)

“……I know, Sister Mayalie.”

Lita shook her head.

"I know you and Brother Yiming shouldn't be by my side at all. I'm really scared. Lord of Heaven is right. The magician and the guardian are in the relationship between each other. I can't give you anything, I'm just blindly protecting you behind you. This does not meet the contract between the magician and the guardian. I know that I'm very bad... I also know that I'm very weak. But..."

(It is normal to be weak, don't escape it.)

Mayalie suddenly changed the subject, which surprised Lita.

"weak?"

(Everyone will have times when they want to be willful, I know. Lita, what are you blaming yourself? You must be thinking that even though you are not strong enough, you want us to stay with you. This kind of wish is very willful and annoying.)

"……………………Um."

Lita hugged Mealie tightly and admitted in a low voice.

"I know I'm very annoying, Sister Mayali. Although I know that I can't rely on you all the time, I still hope you can stay and stay by my side. I'm so willful... and so annoying. I obviously don't give anything, but I just want to get everything. I..."

(The same is true for us, it is not only you who did the wrong thing, Lita.)

"Why?"

Hearing this, Lita raised her head in surprise and stared at Mealee in confusion.

"Sister Mayalie, you did nothing wrong at all?"

(No, we did something wrong.)

Mayalie shook her head slightly, obviously not agreeing with Lita's statement.

(As you said, Lita. We are strong, so there is no problem in protecting you, but in this way, it will turn you into a flower in a greenhouse. Our strength is a burden and a confusion for you. If this continues, you will only choose one of them in the stagnation and extreme pursuit of equal strength as us. This is not what we want to see. Too much fertilizer and water will not only fail to grow into a towering tree, but will destroy it.)

"…………I have no idea…………"

After all, Lita was still young and could only vaguely understand what Mealie wanted to say. But she didn't think any more. At this moment, she was sleepy, making Lita involuntarily fall into a deep dream.

Mayalie gently stroked Lita's hair and sighed.

As she said, her and Yi Ming were too strong, and under their shadow, Lita had no way to grow. It was impossible to improve to the same strength as them. Lita would continue to pursue this blindly, and she would only take the initiative to embark on the road of destruction.

So, they have to leave.
