One must not harbor intentions to harm others, but one must always be wary of others. y
Link checked his equipment, he had the First Ring level Magic Vest, his Rune Objects included boots and a sleeve crossbow.
Considering that the weather was turning cold, Link felt he could also start wearing his cloak.
So, after dinner, Link made an excuse to go back to the dormitory and put on his cloak.
The cloak was lightweight, without being too heavy, it was good for blocking wind and rain.
Jasmine, looking at Link who re-emerged in front of her, finally understood why she had felt something was off with Link the past two days.
Turns out, as soon as he made some money, he immediately armed himself. Jasmine looked him up and down and realized, not only the cloak on his back, But also the boots on his feet, and the vest revealed slightly under his collar, they were all Rune Objects.
Forgive Jasmine for not recognizing that they were Magic Tools, her hair was too long.
“Nice!”
Jasmine gritted her teeth with a pained look on her face, complaining sorrowfully,
“You bought all these nice things behind my back, didn’t even remind me once let me arm myself too. Hmm… tell me, do you have someone out there? Are you planning to let her move in after I die?”
Link rolled his eyes, took a deep breath, suppressed the retort that almost slipped out of his throat, and didn’t spit it out.
Things had been quiet for some days, and Link even wondered if Jasmine had learned her lesson and stopped playing these tricks.
Unexpectedly, it was not that she was unwilling to use them, but she didn’t use them.
When necessary, she could act cute and spoiled at any time, and even began to subtly escalate into crying, making a fuss, and threatening to hang herself.
“Cut your act. Be careful or you’ll be criticized!”
Link answered unhappily, then pointed at Jasmine, “Don’t think I don’t know what you’ve hidden.”
“You… you…”
Jasmine was immediately taken aback, then furious, she asked, “How did you know?”
Link glanced at Jasmine, didn’t answer, turned with a cold face, and walked away.
People evade when they lose.
Despising!
Jasmine wrinkled her cute nose, rudely gave Link’s retreating figure a stare,
soon her fierce expression turned into a cute flustered look.
She followed Link’s pace toward the library.
On the way, she murmured to herself, “How did that blockhead know?”
Turns out, when Jasmine left home, she had a Rune Object on her person at all times.
It was a Flying Needle Hidden Weapon, as thick and long as a little finger, it was her last line of defense.
Jasmine had always secured the Flying Needle Hidden Weapon inside the hem of her shirt.
So stealthily hidden, outsiders wouldn’t know.
If something unfortunate happened that she dared not mention, at least if the villain was the talkative type, she would have a suicidal counterattack. Unexpectedly, it was discovered by Link.
“Hmph!”
Thinking of this, Jasmine couldn’t help but become angry and snorted at Link indicating her displeasure.
Link didn’t even look back, just raised his right hand and waved, not caring in the least.
Jasmine continued to snort for a while, her small face was still stern, showing an unhappy expression.
However, after a while, Jasmine suddenly couldn’t help laughing.
Link was a blockhead, wasn’t this already known?
There was no need to be angry about it!
However, just then, Link suddenly turned around and rushed over to her.
Jasmine had no time to react, and was quickly pulled into Link’s arms, held tightly.
She blushed slightly, and her heart involuntarily skipped a beat.
Despite the tension, Jasmine realized she couldn’t relax like before.
All those tricks she had thought she was skilled in and those spoiled behavior had all been forgotten at the back of her mind.
“Don’t move.”
Link whispered in Jasmine’s ear at that moment, activating the optical invisibility function of the cloak, hiding the two of them.
The path initially to the school building and library was the same.
Until a small slope, the road diverged, continuing straight would lead to the school building. If you go right and uphill, you will enter a winding forest path, which leads to the library.
Just after passing the three-way intersection and stepping into the forest path,
Link’s intuition sent strong warnings.
Last week, Link had constructed his sixth rune, “Wood Element Extraction”, and reached the second level of “Water Wood Mutual Growth Meditation Method”, promoting him to a secondary apprentice.
His sixth sense was strengthened, and his intuition became more and more accurate. His alertness to malice was sharper.
Previously, when he warned Jasmine, saying that Mina Havcheck was a bad person, he had felt a touch of malice from her a few days ago.
Why did Link suddenly go back to the dormitory to equip his cloak? Similarly intuition told him to wear it.
On these matters, Link always preferred to believe that there is, rather than disbelieving there is.
Didn’t it come in handy now?
After disappearing from sight, Link kept moving. As he teleported to instantly cast the secondary Misty Rain Technique, creating a super-condensed mist that reduced visibility to less than 1 meter from the outside world, he also quietly shifted position.
He didn’t immediately lead Jasmine back, instead, he continued towards the deeper part of the forest.
“Report to the academy, call for an Intelligent Law Enforcement Puppet.”
As he moved, Link instructed Jasmine.
By this time, Jasmine had also calmed down and carefully took out her personal smart device. Hiding the light emitted by the smart device with Link’s cloak, she reported the attack to the academy.
Ever since she heard the words “don’t move”, Jasmine had not made a sound, she did what she was told, and when not given a command, she would not move around unnecessarily, closely following Link’s movements.
With this, Link felt satisfied.
At a critical time, she was not dragging him down!
Letting go of his left hand, signaling her to stay still, Link freed up the range of
his sleeve crossbow, his right hand reached into his pocket and took out a handful of seeds to scatter around.
As a wizard apprentice who was interested in botany, it was normal to always carry some seeds.
With one thought, a Birth Induction Technique was fired again.
The seeds Link scattered had been specially treated and were immediately
invigorated by the Birth Induction Technique.
At this point, the person hiding in the shadows, preparing to sneak attack Link
and Jasmine, wouldn’t they realize that they have been exposed?
“Come out!”
That person yelled angrily,
“You cunning little man, come out and fight me one on one!
