LIGHTNOVELWORLD Chapter 137: Chapter 136
So why is Alan so conflicted?
because
At this time, the autumn morning rain had stopped.
Miss.
Still soaking wet.
In the morning, on the eaves, in the rain, Alan's mind was full of meow and swordsmanship, and he didn't think about this at all.
But when the rain stops.
The sunlight broke through the gaps in the clouds, fell from the sky onto the Boreas Mansion, and shone onto Alice through the glass in the corridor.
Alan then realized something was wrong.
It's not a question of whether the clothes are translucent.
The eldest lady's clothes were very thick, so it was impossible to see what she was wearing underneath.
But in this way, the fact that both of their clothes were soaked made it easy to think that I was the one who took her to skip class.
And just yesterday.
Sylphy took advantage of the afternoon swordplay class when Alice and Gileno were practicing, and she pulled him aside to whisper this to him.
"Alan, don't be too indulgent to Alice. You know, reading, writing and arithmetic are very important."
He looked at Sylphy's unblinking gaze at him and subconsciously avoided her gaze, feeling very embarrassed.
Then he solemnly promised the Discipline Committee that next time he saw Alice coming up, he would persuade her to go back.
Um.
The result was that persuasion failed again.
If I bring this over, won't I be arrested on the spot?
"Go change. We can't eat in the servants' mess, at least not today."
"Huh? Wasn't it possible before!?"
"Go change your clothes. The past is the past, and the present is the present. Don't forget that I told you yesterday not to let you come to the roof to find me again, but you came here, didn't you? If Rudy and Sylphy knew that you skipped class to come to see me again, they would definitely scold you, right?"
Alice snorted through her nose and squinted at Alan, leaning forward in an attacking stance with the look of a feline cub about to hunt.
Alan looked at him expressionlessly, ruthlessly.
"Please bring Alice along for dinner, nyan!☆"
"no!"
——
It was fifteen minutes later that Alan arrived at the servants' dining room.
He did not change his clothes. He just let the condensed fighting spirit surge through his body a few times, and the increased body temperature naturally evaporated the clothes.
It just still looks wrinkled.
Behind him.
It was Alice, who was dressed neatly, with her hair combed neatly, and looked "fresh".
The latter had a smile on his face with the corners of his mouth raised high.
Seems to be in a very good mood.
Alan glanced at Alice who had just changed her clothes beside him, coughed lightly, and turned to look inside the restaurant.
Sylphy and Rudy were sitting in their usual 'exclusive seats' by the window, seemingly communicating in low voices.
Perhaps because they were waiting for Alan, they kept glancing towards the restaurant entrance while they were talking.
Then they saw Allen and the other person.
The four looked at each other.
The next moment.
"Good morning! Sylphy!"
Alice's loud greeting exploded, and the sound waves swept across the entire restaurant!
All the maids who were eating stopped what they were doing and turned to look at Alice, who was very present and showed the world with just one sentence that she had indeed skipped classes in the morning.
Who would say good morning to others in the middle of the day?
Everyone smiled kindly and greeted Alan with his mouth twitching slightly.
"Miss~ It's already noon~"
"The young lady is still as energetic as ever~"
With the sound of footsteps, Alice quickly walked through the restaurant amid everyone's praises and sat down on the empty seat next to Sylphy.
Alan followed behind her, his steps were a little stiff, but he concealed it perfectly with his extremely superb body control.
He greeted Rudy normally, and then glanced at Sylphy who was looking at him with a smile on her face.
He smiled and nodded.
He moved his gaze away quickly but naturally.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting. I was a little more focused on my sword practice today."
As he spoke, he was about to pass Rudy and sit opposite Alice.
At this moment, Rudy stood up, without even standing still, and in an instant he sat in the seat opposite Alice before him.
Alan was stunned and looked at Rudy.
The latter made a gesture of invitation; the etiquette lessons he had learned in the past six months had been very effective; his gesture was very elegant and professional.
The brown pupils seemed to be speaking.
Please take a seat, Mr. Allen.
You're welcome.
Alan paused slightly and resisted the urge to kick Rudy.
Look up.
Sylphy is right across the street.
He was looking at himself with his chin in his hand.
Eyes curved.
The arc drawn by Bijilenu's Pingzong blade.
And it must be perfect.
Alan couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion——
Today's eyes.
How can you 'talk'?

161. Chapter 159: Sylphy's Whereabouts
161.
Alan looked away and sat down with his knees bent.
Bow your head.
In sight.
The plate on the table was already filled with the lunch that Sylphy had prepared for him - all of his favorite dishes.
He also felt embarrassed, as if he was acting like a 'young master', and he carefully told Sylphy that there was no need to do that and that she could just do it herself.
But he was rejected with a smile.
"Alan seems to be very troubled about the Silent Sword recently. I only know magic, so these are the only simple things I can help with. I know what Alan is thinking, but it's okay."
"This is Alan's 'payment' for buying me a dress."
At this moment, Alan wanted to look up and say thank you to Sylphy, but after blinking, he picked up a piece of bread.
He stiffened his neck and didn't look up.
Half a year ago, after writing the three words "Sylphy" on the paper, for some reason, he always felt inexplicably "panicked" when he saw Sylphy's face, and always subconsciously avoided Sylphy's "burning" gaze.
I can no longer treat her as a child.
numb!
But fortunately, Sylphy didn't seem to realize that she had indulged Alice in skipping classes again.
It seems that the 'strategy' of taking her to change clothes and comb her hair while deliberately not changing clothes was correct.
A perfect 'alibi'.
In this way.
There was no need to look her in the eyes and explain it to her.
This is much more difficult than reaching the Saint level in swordsmanship.
Rudy on the side glanced at Allen, "watching" his expression the whole time, but he smiled with great satisfaction.
Then his face froze.
because
He felt the 'burning' gaze.
From the ear side.
Turn your head suddenly.
In sight.
Alice was looking at him with her eyes slightly narrowed, in the same raised eyebrow posture as Allen.
Rudy shuddered.
Wait! Miss?! Do you want to fight for this too?
Later he discovered that the facts were not what he thought.
Because the next moment, Alice spoke.
The sound is very loud!
It's an explanation.
It is also an 'imperative' statement of 'facts' from top to bottom.
"I skipped classes today and went to sleep in the stables! I didn't go looking for Alan! Look, my clothes aren't even wet!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a snap, and Alan covered his face, then rubbed his face helplessly, which attracted Alice's proud gaze. She crossed her arms across her chest, very satisfied that she had perfectly restored Alan's instructions.
Look, Alan, I explained it as you said! How is it! Isn't it amazing!
Rudy and Sylphy, who had witnessed the brother and sister practicing sword on the roof in the morning, turned to look at Alice in surprise.
What a perfect alibi!
Those who have watched Conan and those who have not watched Conan were all silent.
Alan rubbed it for a long time and looked up at the opposite side.
I was about to explain something.
In the sight, all I could see was Sylphy's ears trembling.
As if aware of Alan's gaze, she immediately turned her head to look at him.
Alan was subconsciously stunned and forgot to say the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
