Don't confiscate my citizenship

The Ice Witch shook her head and decided not to study the issue in detail.

Compared to her who had just arrived here from the Northern Continent a few months ago, Loren and Florence had known each other for several years, so they must know Florence better than she did and be more familiar with Florence.

She rarely leaves the temple in the forest city of Gedalia, and has not been to the Southern Continent for hundreds of years. Sometimes she feels that the city of Ikerita is full of novelty.

Where have you been today? I couldn't find you all morning.

The Ice Witch walked up to Loren, still a little unhappy, and brought the topic back to business.

Loren seemed to have disappeared out of thin air this morning.

If her guess was correct, this guy's name was Day Off, and he probably found the time to do some ulterior motives.

Loren is stronger than her. If he consciously hides his magic power and whereabouts, she really won't be able to find Loren, let alone follow Loren in this state rashly.

I-I'm going to meet a friend.

Loren explained nervously.

...

The Ice Witch stared at Loren's panicked look and spoke in silence for a moment.

If Loren was completely calm and composed, she would think it would be okay, just an ordinary behind-the-scenes mastermind.

But this guy can actually look appropriately flustered.

It was like being met by a colleague on a date with my girlfriend over the weekend.

Jerky and a little too natural.

I understand.

The Ice Witch thought again and again and nodded.

Since Loren wanted to act like this, she could only follow his instructions.

Before gaining his trust, it would be a bit dangerous to rashly expose your intention to expose him.

You have indeed been working too hard recently, and I have noticed it. But next time you are free, could you consider it too? I will also help you work overtime.

There was still no smile on her face, and she spoke to Loren in a calm voice.

Sorry...I don't know how to thank you...

Loren held the back of his head with one hand and lowered his head.

The guilt was mixed with gratitude, making him particularly unsure of how to express it.

Then if there is such a rest day next time, please take me with you, otherwise I will feel unbalanced.

The Ice Witch said.

You can't reveal your intention to investigate Loren, but you also want to have a reasonable reason to keep an eye on him, and avoid being caught by him without a proper explanation. The best way is to naturally obtain his permission and stay like this. Being around him, no matter how you track him, it's all reasonable.

After all, women's curiosity can explain most problems.

...Uh, Miss Artemis, it's us.

Loren's voice was sleepy.

No matter how dull he is, he still knows that when a man and a woman go out together on their day off, this may be considered a date.

Just as a colleague. Or do you think people like me are boring and you don't want to stay with me even for a day.

The Ice Witch walked closer, looked up at Loren, and asked.

No, I really thank you, and you are a person who makes me feel extremely reliable. When I was in the most difficult time, you were the only one who was willing to support me so firmly. Without you, I wouldn't have known what I would have done last month. How to get through it.

Loren quickly replied sincerely.

...

The Ice Witch was a little dumbfounded.

Staring into that sincere look, the Ice Witch could not help but let go of her guard for a moment.

For some reason, she always felt that Loren's emotions at this time were completely different from the ones he acted.

wrong.

That's what's scary, because she can't tell whether this man is lying to her or sincere to her.

The heroic stage of the Northern Continent was vivid in her mind, and the last words of the Son of Destruction echoed in her ears. Everything reminded her that there was definitely something wrong with Loren.

So, your answer.

She came back to her senses and her vision became clear again.

As long as you don't mind, of course I'm fine with it.

Loren smiled helplessly.

He couldn't understand Artis' inner thoughts from the first time they met. The only thing he was sure of was that Artis was kind to him.

So far, she doesn't seem to hate herself that much.

The instructor said that team building with colleagues is a normal thing. Sometimes more team building can strengthen the cohesion of the church.

Then it's an appointment.

After the Ice Witch finished speaking, she turned and left, signaling to Loren that he could leave.

【……】

In the silence of the instructor, Loren opened the door to the confidential room of the temple again, walked on the corridor, and gradually accelerated his pace.

In less than half a minute, his figure crossed the Yala moat and the river port bridge, and returned to the other side of the Icerite Opera House.

Instructor, how is the time?

[Seventeen minutes and twenty seconds have passed since you left Juliana. 】

The instructor's voice came immediately, proving that he had not been disconnected just now, but had been listening but not speaking.

Loren instantly felt relieved when he heard this voice.

Although the voice has been changed and one cannot hear what the instructor's original voice sounded like, Loren's entire sense of security now lies in this voice.

According to the instructor's route plan, today's most difficult level was passed without any surprises.

[The good news is that there are plenty of routes for you. 】

The instructor suddenly said.

Where's the bad news?

Loren also didn't understand what the route the instructor meant at this time.

It didn't sound like he was pointing the way back to the opera house, either, because he was almost there.

[The bad news is that you opened every line. 】

?

Loren didn't understand and looked confused.

[It’s not a big problem. Now you have returned to the right track of the dating line. Let’s talk about the brother line and the witch line later. Next, you just have to have dinner with Juliana, watch a show, and go to the Golden Bee Playground for a while in the evening. Just have some fun and the date is over. 】

The instructor's voice continued to ring in Loren's ears.

hiss.

The playground mentioned by the instructor made Loren a little worried again.

Because the Golden Bee Playground in Ikerita has always been a crowded place, with many special souvenirs and limited food prizes, and it is often even more crowded on weekend nights, Loren has never gone to such a fashionable place with girls. experience of.

It was the instructor who analyzed Julianna's preferences and promptly selected this date agenda. As expected, it was quite in line with Julianna's wishes.

[Don't worry, I'll be at the playground at night too, and if you run into any trouble, I'll probably show up as any passerby and help you. 】

The instructor said.

Thank you, instructor.

Loren felt overwhelmed with peace of mind.

[Anyway, after today’s drill, your time management has been improved. Be more confident. Even if you have to face the real difficulty of hell next time, I believe you can get through it. Anything that cannot destroy you will make you better. powerful. 】

What if I'm destroyed?

Although Loren didn't know what the instructor's words meant, the instructor's riddles one after another gave him the feeling that the gears of fate had begun to turn, but he himself was completely unaware of it.

【I am here. 】

The instructor's voice was still so convinced.

It would be great.

Loren's heart was finally relieved,

Can I ask the instructor to help me guide my next date...

[No problem, no matter when and where, even if I have an appointment myself, I will do my best to help you at the same time. 】

good!

The instructor's confidence that his face remained unchanged even as a mountain collapsed in front of his eyes seemed to be able to infect him.

After all, they succeeded today.

Next time, it will only be more successful!

…

On a bench at the edge of the temple square, a young man with black hair and a cap held a cup of coffee in one hand and sipped it. He finally cut off the headset and stopped communicating for the time being.

He opened his notebook, took off the temporary bookmark [Golden Bee Amusement Park Admission Ticket], and looked at the hand-drawn map.

The little black cat next to him moved closer.

Meow Meow, if you happen to want three threads next time, and you also have to command Loren's three threads at the same time, do you really dare to play?

The cat boss seemed to have anticipated the worst case scenario. He looked at Lan Qi and asked with some worry.

First of all, there is no chance that such a small probability event will happen.

Lan Qi looked at it and just smiled lightly,

Secondly, this level of difficulty is just that for me. Can you imagine me being so scared that I begged for mercy?

The eyes like the emerald green water are still so clear, naturally filled with thoughts and comfort.

Meow.

Boss Cat barked, watching Lan Qi fall into the universe of thought.

Since Lan Qi has said that it will be successful, it doesn't have to worry about the future. It can just play with Lan Qi today.

Then it picked up the golden ticket that Lan Qi had placed on the chair.

It seemed to remember that when Tata came back yesterday, the edge of the shopping paper bag she was holding had such a golden corner exposed.

But it was probably wrong. The two of them couldn't always think of going together.
