The sky was completely dark, and it was raining lightly outside. Lovier was holding a light golden cat in the room, talking to the cat in a low voice, and looking out the window.
"Hedra hasn't come back yet." She was a little worried.
"Yes, if we still haven't arrived after 8 o'clock, let's go out and look for it." Aurora was sitting at the table, flipping through the book.
After spending time together, Aurora felt that the roommate was not careless or someone who changed her mind at the last moment. If she came back late, she must have encountered something that delayed her, but she was not sure what it was.
This is Asura District in the hinterland of the Mage Alliance. For the safety of the new students, the security has always been very good. Nothing should happen. Thinking of this, she couldn't stand reading.
Aurora looked at the clock hanging nearby. It was only half past seven. It seemed a bit fussy to go looking for her in a big way just because she came back an hour late. Besides, she was not familiar with this place. If she really wanted to mobilize people, she would have to rely on the power of her family, and the family...Aurora didn't want to contact her now.
The time slowly came to 8 o'clock. As the hands passed by and made a crisp and subtle sound, the two stood up and prepared to change into clothes that were convenient for traveling. Considering that there was rain on the road, they had to find longer boots.
Just as the two of them were looking for clothes and preparing to go out, there was finally a knock on the door.
After two click prompts, it opened with the sound of Key. Sylutia came back with a wet handbag and wet hair. The lower body of her dress was stained with a lot of blood and water stains, and there were a lot of mud spots on the socks on her calves.
"Hedra, you are finally back." Lovier wanted to go over and hug her, but when he saw the blood on Sylutia's body, he was a little frightened.
"What happened?" Aurora came over calmly, helped Sylutia put down the things, and then handed over a towel.
"Well, we encountered some unexpected situations on the road." The girl wiped her face with a towel, then walked to the side, squatted down, found her slippers, and took off her soaked shoes and socks.
"Is it dangerous? Is Hedra injured?" Lovier asked worriedly and fearfully.
"It's over. Fortunately, I'm not hurt." After hearing her say that nothing happened, the other two finally felt relieved.
"That's what happened."
"This is a long story." The girl placed her fingers on her chin, thinking about how to describe it.
"Can I take a shower first and then talk to you?"
"It's okay, it's okay, go take a shower, you'll get sick if you get wet." Lovier answered quickly.
"Thank you~"
After that, Sylutia took a change of clothes and went into the bathroom to take a shower. On the other side, Aurora picked up the skirt that the girl had changed into, looked at it carefully, and sniffed it carefully with his nose.
Seeing this scene, Lovier opened her eyes wide and seemed a little surprised by this roommate's behavior. Under her gaze, Aurora, a usually cold girl, had to explain a few words.
"I just wanted to check and find out."
"So, did you find anything?"
"The smell of rainwater, the blood has been washed away a bit. Hedra may have found water on the road and washed it briefly."
"You can find water to clean it afterward, which means the problem is not serious." Aurora analyzed simply and rationally.
Half an hour later, Sylutia appeared in front of the two of them again after taking a hot bath, wearing a loose nightgown and a fluffy headscarf.
Afterwards, the three of them sat around on the bed, looking at Sylutia who simply wrapped herself in a quilt, and listened to her talk about what happened when she went shopping in the afternoon.
"... There were no public carriages at that time, so I had to walk back. It would be raining lightly, there would be no people on the road, and it would be quite dark."
"So, as expected, I ran into a robber. Of course, he was not after my life."
"At first they only wanted a few gold coins, but then their appetite gradually grew and they couldn't stop." Sylutia recalled.
"Then how powerful are they? How did Hedra escape?" Lovier couldn't help but be curious and wanted to know very urgently.
"There are four people in total. They are all Orc. They are very tall. The leader is at the second level." Hearing the second level, Aurora, I felt bad.
Most Orc will choose "Beast Fang", "Blood Law" and Aspect Power to advance. This is the Aspect Power that they are easiest to perceive and understand, and these two types of When Aspect Power is at a low level, the improvement in combat strength is huge. When it comes to combat, other Aspect Power are often not as good as the two in the early stage, unless they are high-level Aspect Power, "Blazing Sun" and "Dragon Eye".
"I couldn't run fast while holding things, and my legs weren't as long as theirs, so I had to fight." Sylutia thought for a while.
"It happened that I studied the course "Sobis Magic Thread Manipulation" during this period, so I tried to improve the spells I had learned before, and then used them in battle." She knew a lot of junior and intermediate rune spells of birds. This is traceable and does not cause identity issues. The special courses taught by the school during this period did mention the various uses of the "Thread" spell.
"It was a thrilling battle for a while, and then we finally managed to get rid of the people who were robbing them." The girl omitted the process. After all, if I really wanted to go into detail, the process would be crushing.
"Oh, is it solved?" Lovier looked left and right, as if he wanted to find any difference in Sylutia.
"There are four people on the other side, and there is a second-level one." Lovier felt that he must at least have some trump cards or powerful props, or something else, to be able to defeat him.
Fortunately, Aurora on the other side is more rational. After all, she is also a genius. She can understand that powerful people can easily defeat many at the same level. Even if they cross First Order, it is possible.
"Can I see the spell used by Hedra?"
"Of course." It's not a secret, probably.
Sylutia stretched out her hand from the quilt, and a few strands of silk thread emerged and outlined in her palm, and then quickly Weaving transformed into a beautiful purple Flying Bird. Its tail dragged the thin silk thread, flying around the room Rotation, and the silk thread also drew a beautiful arc trajectory in the air.
"So beautiful!" Lovier clasped his hands, and the kitten underneath him also looked at Flying Bird curiously, crawled out, and was eager to try. Unfortunately, it was not sensitive at all. It jumped a few times, waved its hands, and when it failed to catch it, it walked to the side and pretended to groom its hair.
After a while, the purple Flying Bird disappeared. The two roommates also had a general understanding of the situation and asked how to deal with it in the end.
"I took the defeated Orc to the nearest police box and handed it over to them."
"Didn't the police ask you for detailed questioning?" Aurora was slightly surprised.
"I thought about it at the time, but I said I was a freshman and my roommates would be worried if I went home late, and I might catch a cold if I got caught in the rain."
"The other party thought about it for a while and finally asked me to leave my name and address before letting me go." Sylutia finished talking about what just happened.
"That's good." Aurora nodded, then took out the reserved snacks from his cabinet and handed them to Sylutia.
"Eat something Hedra, I must be hungry now."

"Wow, I want to feed Hedra too." Seeing this scene, Lovier thought of something, and in the blink of an eye he also brought his own collection of snacks and snacks, and piled them next to the girl.
"Okay, okay, thank you, but I can't eat too much, it will go bad if I leave it here." With the laughter and comfort of a few people, the night was finally passed safely.
