Chapter 221
The scene behind Fan Xinglu gradually came into view.
A magnificent and dazzling hall.
"Is this the 'Yellow Chen Hall'...?"
The "Yellow Chen Hall" was built overnight by the original "Myriad Heavenly Net", which was Fan Xinglu's former reincarnated body.
"Is the new magical artifact inside?" Luo Mio asked Fan Xinglu.
"Um."
Looking at the Yellow Chen Hall, Luo Mio's eyes also flickered slightly.
That means... the teacher and Bella have already been here...
However, Luo Mio did not seem too surprised.
After all, Fan Xinglu had already been to the Hyperion, so Fu Hua and Bella must have also been to the Yellow Chen Hall.
Then Luo Mio and the other two followed Fan Xinglu toward the Yellow Chen Hall.
——
Two hours passed in the Yellow Chen Hall.
"Hmm... it seems that the joints of the right hand are a bit more brittle than those of the left hand, and the speed of punching is also a little slower than that of the left hand."
Luo Mio sat in a corner of the Yellow Chen Hall, analyzing the battle results in the Space Window.
"Although many students won't notice, Sylvia, Amagiri, and Ernest will be there this time in the 'Apex Arena,' so they should be able to spot this weakness."
"Hmm... this area needs urgent repairs."
Fan Xinglu nodded upon hearing Luo Mio's report.
Claudia, who was standing nearby, handed the prepared water glass to Kong.
"Let me see..."
Luo Mio's azure eyes scanned the battle data in the Space Window...
"Speaking of which..."
Fan Xinglu looked at Luo Mio and Kong, and suddenly asked.
When are you leaving?
"..."
Upon hearing Fan Xinglu's words, Luo Mio fell silent for a moment, her eyes widening slightly as she stared at the Space Window before scratching her head.
Kong, who was standing beside Luo Mio, didn't say anything, but turned his head to look at Luo Mio.
"Well..."
Claudia, who was standing to the side, was also stunned for a moment after hearing Fan Xinglu's words.
I didn't hear what Fan Xinglu meant.
What does "when to leave" mean?
Then, her lake-blue eyes looked at Luo Mio with confusion.
Luo Mio also noticed Claudia's gaze and lowered her eyes, unsure of what to say.
Seeing Luo Mio's expression, Claudia also spoke softly.
"Mio..."
Fan Xinglu was also taken aback when she saw the expressions on Luo Mio, Kong, and Claudia's faces.
"Could it be... that I haven't told her yet...?"
Tell me...
Claudia looked at Luo Mio.
For some reason, upon hearing Fan Xinglu's words, her heart skipped a beat, and she felt a deep unease...
It felt like her most precious possession was about to leave her.
This was the first time since birth that she experienced feelings that made her uncomfortable...
Seeing Luo Mio's expression, Fan Xinglu also spoke softly.
"Sorry... I thought..."
"It's alright, Senior Fan."
Luo Mio shook her head after hearing Fan Xinglu's apologetic voice.
Claudia overheard their conversation and, seeing Luo Mio's reluctance to tell her, Claudia to Fan Xinglu and asked.
"What do you mean... Stardew?"
"... When are you leaving?"
Fan Xinglu glanced at Claudia, then looked at Luo Mio and Kong.
Seeing that neither of them intended to stop them.
Fan Xinglu also looked at Claudia and said to her.
"Actually... Luo Mio Ling isn't from this world."
"..."
Upon hearing Fan Xinglu's words, Claudia slowly opened her eyes wide.
"Huh?"
"It's not just Luo Mio Ling." Fan Xinglu continued, looking at Claudia.
"Fu Hua, Bella, Sora..."
"They are not from this world."
"..."
The air felt a little heavy for a moment.
"What's the meaning...?"
Claudia looked at Fan Xinglu with a slightly trembling voice and said.
However, before Fan Xinglu could continue speaking...
"Tia".
Luo Mio stood up, looked at Claudia, walked to her side, and gently took her small hand.
Then Luo Mio took Claudia's hand and walked towards a corner of the Yellow Chen Hall.
Watching the two figures depart, Kong lowered his eyes, his Liuli eyes seemingly lost in thought.
Looking at everyone's reactions.
Fan Xinglu also sighed softly.
Looking at the silent Kong, Fan Xinglu walked towards the Yellow Chen Hall.
"I'll go get some food."
Chapter 144: I want to disqualify myself from the "Apex Arena"
Claudia watched Luo Mio's back as he held her hand, feeling the warmth emanating from her palm.
My anxious heart gradually calmed down.
The two arrived at the edge of the Yellow Chen Hall. Luo Mio gently released Claudia's hand, turned around, and looked straight at her with her azure eyes.
Claudia looked at Luo Mio.
"Mio..."
Luo Mio looked at Claudia and remained silent for a short while.
Then he spoke to Claudia.
"I'm sorry, Tia."
He first apologized to Claudia, and then addressed Claudia again.
"Just as Senior Fan said, we... we are indeed not from this world."
After hearing Luo Mio's words, Claudia fell silent, her lake-blue eyes quietly watching Luo Mio.
Then Luo Mio sat on the ground of the Yellow Chen Hall, looking at his hands, and explained to Claudia in a gentle tone the origins of himself, Kong, Fu Hua, and Bella.
Claudia also sat down gently next to Luo Mio.
Listen quietly to Luo Mio's confession.
About half an hour passed.
Lake Claudia's blue eyes shimmered with color.
Then, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he said softly.
"I never imagined... the outside world was so vast..."
After hearing Claudia's words, Luo Mio scratched the back of her head and said.
"Originally, I planned to tell you before I left..."
Upon hearing Luo Mio say the word "leave," Claudia looked at him with her lake-blue eyes, her pale cherry-colored lips slightly parted, then closed gently, Claudia silent for a moment before looking at Luo Mio and smiling slightly.
"So... Mio, when do you plan to leave?"
In response to Claudia's question, Luo Mio remained silent for a moment before speaking.
"Probably after the 'School Festival' ends and before the 'Griffin Star Martial Festival' begins."
Claudia looked at Luo Mio, whose eyes were lowered, and said softly.
"So it's during the summer...?"
"Um."
Luo Mio nodded.
Claudia's eyes also dimmed slightly.
"Yeah..."
Then he added.
"Then... when will you be back?"
"It will probably be before the 'King Dragon Star Martial Festival'..."
"A year...?"
Looking at Claudia, Luo Mio said softly.
"I'm sorry... Tia."
"No..." Claudia shook her head, looked at Luo Mio with a smile, and said, "Ling, you don't need to apologize."
Looking at Luo Mio with her lake-blue eyes, she spoke softly.
"Actually, I've been wondering for a while... Mio, Xiao Kong, Fu Hua, and Bella, are you really from this world...?"
"A powerful force unlike that of the 'Star Vein Generation'... a technological capability that surpasses that of this world..."
"Suddenly appearing in the world, no less formidable than the other six Integrated Enterprise Consortium, 'The Finality'..."
Claudia looked at Luo Mio, a slight smile curving her lips, revealing a youthful smile that she rarely showed, a smile she only revealed in front of Luo Mio.
"Actually, I'm very happy right now."
Claudia said to Luo Mio, "At first, I was actually very scared... because I knew that Miao was hiding something from me, and I was afraid of what you were hiding from me."
"But now, Mio has told me your most important thing."
"Tia ..."
