It must be said that compared with John, who has always been a little unreliable, Brooks is really a good boy.
In terms of magic, he is gifted, has a sense of justice in dealing with people and things, and can show the calmness and courage that most of his peers do not have at some critical moments. Therefore, whether for ifamani or for the Stewart family he was born, he is a good and good enough descendant.
At the same time... It was obvious that he was so fond of the girl named TIA prince that he even didn't hesitate to let himself step into it when he found that the other party had fallen into danger.
Yes, as a junior student of ifamani, he can be called excellent. But even so, in the face of the danger here, he had already understood his weight from the shitabe boy.
"Da, Da, Da..."
The vertical pendulum clock at the front corner was ticking, slightly staggered from the footsteps from that direction, and looked clearly audible in the quiet corridor. So he didn't dare to move, so he had to squat here and wait for the other party to walk over step by step.
Maybe it's just an ordinary Ma Ji who lives here. He can't sleep at night, so he gets up and walks casually. If it's just like this, it's lucky, because a Ma Ji who happens to pass by here probably won't notice the corner behind the big vase hastily covered by the magic spell.
He knew that the spell was the best he could do so far. But the difficulty of the spell itself is really beyond his ability. Even a Ma Ji will still notice the abnormality here if he looks here carefully. Fortunately, it's night, and insufficient lighting makes their chances of being found much smaller.
However, if it is a wizard... According to his observation and understanding of following the nashtabe boy these days, there are wizards in this monastery, and there is more than one person! In addition, it should be the dead of night now - the possibility that the other party is a wizard is actually greater than a hemp chicken.
So Brooks prayed secretly in the bottom of his heart, but he had to clench the wand in his hand.
"PATA... PATA... PATA..."
The man seemed to be wearing a pair of slippers and other shoes, which made his walking voice a little sluggish. Brooks did not go to look, but listened silently with the more inner TIA, listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer.
Both of them are a little nervous. Brooks is worried that if the other party finds out, it will immediately attract others, while TIA is more worried that Eliza, who has recovered, will catch up with others.
Finally, the two children were relieved to hear that the man in the corridor finally seemed to pass through the outside without stopping, and then gradually went away.
"It's far away... Let's keep running!"
After confirming that there was no one in the corridor, Brooks, who was looking at the appearance again, didn't look back and wanted to reach out to latiya's arm, but after pulling it, he found that it didn't move.
"Miss prince, what --"
He looked back in some doubt, but suddenly his whole body was stiff and his scalp was numb. Because he saw that there was another figure in the corner where TIA was supposed to be alone. When he looked in, the man nodded gently at him with a gentle face.
At the moment, TIA, who was closer to each other than him, naturally dared not act rashly.
"Another lovable child! Honey, is it a gift you brought me?" the other party looked at Brooks, lowered his eyes slightly, stared at TIA in front of him again, and said softly, "of course, compared with the 'big gift' just now, it's obviously nothing... Isn't it?"
With that, the other party reached out gently, as if to touch TIA's cheek. But at the moment when she was about to touch it, she was slightly tilted back by TIA, who suddenly regained her consciousness, and hid from her.
Then, with a slightly dry voice, TIA whispered with some difficulty:
"... Eliza."
She still caught up. Although her forehead was covered with sweat stains, her clothes and hair were messy, and the blood vessels between her neck had not disappeared yet, she caught up again!
"Yes, it's me, your Eliza." the other party smiled, but there was a slight madness under the gentle and charitable face. "Just now you did a good job, I must praise you, because you obviously understand the importance of the wand to a wizard - so you didn't forget to break my wand before you left - you did a great job!"
She first praised TIA inexplicably, which made TIA a little creepy, but she didn't know what she should do. She could only stiff her neck and close her thin lips and wait for the development of the situation.
However, when TIA was feeling that she could do nothing, Brooks beside her obviously didn't give up. That is, before Eliza's voice fell, very suddenly, Brooks stretched out the wand he had prepared for a long time under the cover of TIA's body.
It's a pity
"Except your weapon."
"Bang!"
Just the second after Brooks' wand crept out, Eliza in front of TIA waved her backhand coldly. A red mountain suddenly ran across the three worlds and accurately hit Brooks' wand tip.
At the next moment, his wand flew up, crossed an arc in mid air and landed far away in another corner of the wall.
After all this, Eliza shook the new wand in her hand and looked at TIA without raising her head
"Look! Are you familiar?"
"My... Wand," TIA murmured, staring at her closely.
"That's right," Eliza said with a smile, "I thought you would go back to your room first. It was near the exit, but you just tried to escape and didn't go. So you see, even if you grow up occasionally, you're not smart enough... I was right at the beginning, didn't I?"
At this point, she finally put her wand on TIA's forehead again and said with a smile:
"Well, let's give you the gift you didn't accept just now! Honey, you should accept it well this time! Dig out your heart -"
"Bang!"
With a blast, her spell didn't finish.
