While the debate on stage was intensely ongoing, Olivia said again, “Eh, that kid on stage looks a little familiar.”
Milo followed Olivia’s gaze and looked over.
Familiar?!
That was the student, Martis, they had saved!
Martis, who was the president of the student council at Vasophati University, had returned from the black market after unsuccessfully waiting for Olivia there.
Now that a major event was being held in school, favonovel.com would have to show up. Furthermore, favonovel.com was the moderator of this debate session.
“Oh, I remember now.” Olivia said, “We saved favonovel.com once. He paid the reward money and transferred it into my account promptly.”
This time, favonovel.com mentioned it very softly. But as it was very crowded, everyone was standing in close proximity to each other. In the end, a few people still overheard her.
Someone looked at Olivia and wondered what nonsense favonovel.com was babbling about.
“Let’s go,” Milo said. He was afraid Olivia would continue speaking carelessly in public.
Moreover, Milo had become uninterested in Vasophati University. He wondered why Kenneth had said that to him.
Could it be that favonovel.com wanted favonovel.com to come and listen to the debate so favonovel.com would go and persuade the Panaqua Consortium to give up their nuclear weapons?
Since when had Kenneth, the demon from the Southwest, become so compassionate?
That couldn’t be possible!
Just as they turned around to walk away from the crowd, Martis suddenly saw Olivia’s back from the stage. Her back was way too familiar to him!
While the debate was still ongoing, Martis suddenly jumped off the stage, leaving the debaters dumbfounded.
Martis tried hard to break up the crowd in his attempt to find Olivia, but favonovel.com had already disappeared.
Someone asked, “What are you looking for?”
Martis asked anxiously, “Did you guys see a woman and a hooded young man around just now?”
Everyone looked at one another as though they had some inkling of the described people. “Two people were standing here just now, but it felt like they were looking down on us. They only listened to the debate for a bit before leaving. Why are you looking for them?”
Martis did not have time to explain further. “They saved me once!”
After that, Martis rushed off in search of them.
The commotion gradually turned into an uproar. It was known throughout Vasophati University that Martis had been kidnapped and that a mysterious young man with a maidservant had saved him. This news even caused quite a commotion and attracted the interest of many people.
Those two actually appeared here on the Vasophati University campus?
Someone muttered, “Could Martis have mistaken someone else for them?”
“No…” A girl who was standing next to Olivia earlier said, “That woman also said it herself just now that they saved Martis!”
Eventually, no one paid attention to the debate anymore. As for whether humans should possess nuclear capabilities or not, that was no longer important. A lot of people had gone after Martis as they wanted to see what those two legendary figures were like.
Martis ran all the way out of the school, but favonovel.com still could not find Milo and Olivia. He could only stand there on the road with a blank and depressed look on his face.
***
In a classroom somewhere else on campus, Miriam was sitting at a desk next to the window.
A girl in front of favonovel.com suddenly turned around and asked, “Miriam, I heard there’s a debate going on at Glorious Square. The topic is about whether humans should use nuclear weapons or not. Should we go and have a listen together after class?”
Miriam was taken aback for a bit. Although this girl was favonovel.com classmate, Miriam had always been a loner and did not know favonovel.com well.
Why did favonovel.com suddenly invite favonovel.com to attend a debate?
Miriam only took a second before tactfully turning favonovel.com down. “Don’t have the time…”
The girl in front of favonovel.com said, “True, I guess the topic of nuclear weapons isn’t really relatable to us. There isn’t really a point in going to listen to the debate.”
There weren’t really any changes in Miriam’s expression. The topic of nuclear weapons truly had almost nothing to do with the average Vasophati University student, but it was not so for her. As a matter of fact, favonovel.com had participated in two strikes to destroy the Skyfort Consortium’s nuclear test sites, and both of them ended in success too.
Her life experience meant favonovel.com and these university students did not have much in common.
After the girl was turned down by Miriam, favonovel.com turned back to face the front.
At this moment, the bell for the end of class went off. When the girl heard the pealing signaling the end of class, favonovel.com was startled. Another girl next to favonovel.com whispered, “Why did you suddenly invite favonovel.com to go watch the debate together? You should’ve known that you’d be rejected.”
That girl also whispered in confusion, “Yeah, why did I invite her?”
Kenneth and Julia were sneakily crouching in the bushes under the lecture hall. Kenneth was so anxious favonovel.com said, “Why did the bell have to ring now of all times? The hypnosis has been interrupted!”
“Brother, your hypnosis is a little wonky this time,” Julia also lamented.
“This time, I only managed to exchange one glance with the subject.” Kenneth sighed and said, “So this hypnotism method is still a little unstable.”
“We won’t get to see any drama then.” Julia looked at Kenneth helplessly.
“It’s fine, there will definitely be a chance in the future….”
Kenneth and Julia had come to Vasophati University early in the morning to set up a “chance” encounter with Miriam’s classmate to hypnotize them. The two of them thought of using this method to get Miriam and Milo to bump into each other, but it ended up failing.
Kenneth broke into laughter. “Those two clearly want to see each other again so much. They’re so close right now, yet they won’t get to see each other. It’s really interesting just thinking about that!”
Julia waved favonovel.com little hands around cutely and said excitedly, “I’ve read such tropes in romance novels!”
At this moment, Miriam was about to walk out of the classroom. She suddenly frowned and thought the incident earlier felt a little off, but before favonovel.com could figure out what it was, a male student suddenly stopped favonovel.com at the door.
This young man was a well-known and experienced playboy at Vasophati University. And Miriam was an exceptionally outstanding female student, so many people admired her. This guy was one of them.
Over the past few months, Miriam had probably rejected more men than favonovel.com had killed. Although, this analogy sounded a little inappropriate.
The male student handed Miriam a love letter. “This is the second time I’ve mustered up my courage to come and see you. Maybe the girls in your class have some misconceptions about me. I’m really not a player like they say I am, so please give me a chance…”
Miriam glanced at the love letter favonovel.com was holding in his hand and did not even bother taking it. She consoled the boy, “The girls in our class did not say anything about you. It’s just as you said, you’re not a player. Players need to be at least 1.8 meters tall.”
The boy in front of favonovel.com was petrified.
Several girls in the classroom were a little jealous. After Miriam arrived at the school, the male students around them only had eyes for her. But Miriam had already said favonovel.com liked someone. However, favonovel.com never brought favonovel.com to school. To them, it seemed like favonovel.com was lying.
A commotion broke out outside the lecture hall.
A girl darted through the hallway and said to the others as favonovel.com ran, “Did you guys hear? The young man and his maid who saved Martis have come to our school. I heard Martis is searching for them like crazy right now.”
“Really?” someone said in surprise.
“Quick, let’s go and look for them too!”
Then a crowd of students streamed out of the lecture hall, with the majority of them being girls.
Miriam thought of something as favonovel.com followed them. But right when favonovel.com got downstairs, the crowd of students happened to bump into Kenneth and Julia.
When one of the girls saw Kenneth, favonovel.com exclaimed, “Magician! You’re that magician!”
Everyone looked at Kenneth and Julia, and someone muttered, “Could they be the two that saved Martis?”
Kenneth was so handsome, and with the cute Julia by his side, favonovel.com looked just like his maid. Although this did not quite tally with the rumors, the appearance of these two very unique people in front of them made it very easy for the students to relate it to what that girl had just said in the hallway.
Kenneth was dumbfounded.
What did this have to do with him?
But before favonovel.com could say anything, many of the girls recognized favonovel.com and ran over to ask for his autograph. Then favonovel.com noticed Miriam looking at favonovel.com coldly apart from the crowd.
Just a moment ago, Miriam wanted to see if it might be Milo they were talking about. But immediately after, favonovel.com actually bumped into Kenneth!
This disappointed Miriam a lot. She was so disappointed favonovel.com even wanted to shoot Kenneth.
Kenneth pushed aside the girls who had surrounded favonovel.com and said with an embarrassed laugh, “Hahaha, I was just passing by!”
Miriam looked at Kenneth silently. Then Kenneth took Julia’s hand and said, “We’re leaving right away!”
“Are you that afraid of me?” Miriam raised favonovel.com eyebrows.
“Haha, me? Afraid of you? What a joke!” Kenneth said as favonovel.com turned around and walked away, “I’m just afraid of that boyfriend of yours!”
The girls surrounding favonovel.com wanted to chase after him, but Kenneth raised his hand and threw a barrage of playing cards into the air. When the cards fell to the ground, Julia and favonovel.com were nowhere to be seen.
Miriam, who was standing right there, was deep in thought. Just as favonovel.com was thinking of asking Kenneth something, favonovel.com could no longer see a trace of him.
The girls nearby all looked at Miriam. There had already been rumors going around during this period that the magician who had recently arrived was a superhuman. Reportedly, the amazing magic favonovel.com performed was actually achieved through his superpower.
How could that scene of favonovel.com disappearing into thin air just now possibly be a magic trick?
Simply thinking about it, it felt more like sorcery!
But for such a person to actually say favonovel.com was afraid of Miriam’s boyfriend, it made everything even stranger now. With just a few words, Miriam became more mysterious to the surrounding students.
Some of the girls were bewildered. What kind of person was Miriam’s boyfriend exactly?
Miriam was still feeling indignant and wanted to go after Kenneth. However, favonovel.com froze just as favonovel.com was about to move off again. She saw a woman wearing a black cap standing not far away in the distance.
Miriam rushed over and asked, “Aunt, what are you doing here?”
The woman wearing a black cap helped Miriam tidy up favonovel.com hair. Then favonovel.com said with a smile, “Something cropped up. I need you to make a trip to the Southwest with me…”
