Chapter 460 Everyone's New Year Preparations (2)
Chapter 460 Everyone's New Year Preparations (2)
The Sage's Tower was rather deserted today; apart from the mages guarding key posts, most people had gone home for the holiday.
Eileen sat in her office, holding a thick magic book, her eyes behind round-framed glasses filled with seriousness.
"The best hair styling magic in the world? This is it!"
As representatives of intellectuals in another world, magicians not only pursue various powerful and bizarre magics, but also create many life-related spells for convenience.
However, Eileen doesn't usually pay much attention to these unorthodox methods. She believes that her energy should be focused on more important things, such as research and spell practice.
But today, she unusually borrowed a miscellaneous magic book, her petite face showing an expectation and trepidation unlike anything she usually did.
"Little Eileen, you've really gone to great lengths for Misser."
Verolina, standing to the side, wore a sour expression and a half-smile. Wasn't the reason Eileen wanted to take care of herself just to give Misr Van a different feeling when they met again?
The woman she cherished and wanted to possess was now changing and dressing herself for another person.
How could she not be jealous?!
However, Verolinka had no reason to be angry or hateful; she was too hesitant and timid, and missed her chance.
Fairies are a race that can only fall in love with one person in their lifetime, when they pretend to be just friends to maintain their aloofness, and their feelings are distant and they dare not express them seriously.
A man who seemed to appear out of nowhere stole Eileen's heart.
Perhaps the old Verolina would have been furious, even resorting to extreme measures, but now, she simply couldn't bring herself to dislike that man.
In particular, he was the one who saved his father.
Even the department head herself felt that Eileen and Misel Van were such a perfect match that she felt ashamed of herself.
But should we just give up like this?
No, of course not!
Verolina is no ordinary person; she has decided to break with convention! If she can't have one, she'll have both! To this end, she shamelessly joined the ranks of those who went to Irene's house for the New Year.
For the sake of our great ideal, let's first take care of Eileen's family!
"Hmph, none of your business! I only brought you to my house because I felt sorry for you..."
The fairy lady was unaware of the woman's sinister intentions. Her feelings for Verolina were also somewhat complicated; love was out of the question, and they could only be considered close friends in a rather special way.
When the department head brought her a New Year's gift and asked to spend the New Year with her.
Eileen refused the gift with special meaning, but agreed to the request.
"Alright, Lumina, help me prepare the materials, I'm about to cast a spell." With the student helping her choose the materials and using her spellcasting skills, the 'world's best hair magic' was unleashed.
Her thick purple hair floated and fluttered, appearing both holy and ethereal in the fairy's own celestial light.
The hair styling materials transformed into specks of light that flowed onto the hair strands, instantly transforming the originally simple straight hair into a radiant, shimmering, and smooth texture.
The magic also automatically matched the most suitable hairstyle for Eileen based on her appearance.
The hair at the front was neatly trimmed to form delicate bangs, which, together with the fluffy, long hair, created a gentle and sweet temperament.
"Wow!" Before Eileen could even look in the mirror, Verolina pounced on her.
"What an adorable baby! Let me suck on it, just one, just one sip!!"
Everyone has a side that is unknown to others. Verolina, who appears strong and aloof on the surface, is actually a doll enthusiast, which may be related to her childhood lack of companionship.
In her eyes, the fairy girl is always the cutest!
She has the appearance of a doll, but the personality of a mother is simple and gentle, making her love her, making her yearn for her, and making her unable to resist her!
"Let go of me! You idiot!"
Eileen was feeling suffocated, but the size difference was too great, and she couldn't push him away.
Lumina, a good student standing to the side, silently raised her gaze, determined not to get involved in the teacher's complicated relationships. Originally, Eileen had invited her, whose home was far away in the south, to spend the New Year together.
But Lumina refused, because she felt that her teacher's New Year would probably not be peaceful...
"Alright, we should get going." Finally freed from her restraints, Eileen glared at Verolinka angrily, but without scolding her; she was indeed very gentle with her friend, the fairy lady.
Today they will use the Sage's Tower's teleportation device to return to their hometown and set up a designated restaurant for Fan Wei.
"Wait a moment." Verolina's expression also became serious. After all, she was meeting her family and had to make a good impression! She went into the office break room and came out a few minutes later dressed in a proper formal outfit.
The long, black fishtail skirt is like a bud about to bloom, with a simple white button-down shirt underneath and a loose-fitting black magician's coat of fine texture on top.
It is meticulous without being ostentatious, giving people a sense of professional competence and a relaxed, elite demeanor.
"Well? I picked it out carefully." Verolina straightened her back, raised her head, and asked Eileen with a smile.
The fairy lady was indeed slightly shocked. Clothes make the man, and a change of clothes made the frivolous guy in front of her look completely different, but she naturally wouldn't admit it.
"It's so-so. Didn't you always wear mage robes and knitted sweaters before? Why did you change the style?"
“Hey,” Verolinka chuckled, “It’s not that I don’t want to wear something else, it’s just that it’s a bit of a hassle.”
She lowered her head, but could never see her toes. With this movement, her shirt suddenly tightened, and the already heavy buttons suddenly snapped off.
One of them flew in a parabola and hit Eileen on the head, then bounced away again.
The air fell silent for a moment...
"...It seems the needle and thread weren't strong enough; I need to reinforce them." Verolina wasn't embarrassed by the minor mishap and smiled faintly.
At the same time, he couldn't resist being sarcastic, looking at Eileen's small frame with provocation.
"I'm better than you, aren't I?"
With her fist hardened, Eileen grabbed her staff!
"You monster cowgirl, behead her—!!! Great Exile Spell!!"
Verolina reacted quickly, "Spell Counter!"
Watching the teachers suddenly get into a heated argument, Lumina sighed silently. How childish! She definitely didn't want to become an adult like that in the future!
While the two great mages were vying for supremacy, atop the Sage's Tower, just a few floors away, the tower master, Moring, was also caught in a dilemma.
"Mo Ke, what gift do you think I should give Mr. Misell for the New Year?"
With virtually no social experience and no friends other than Fan Wei, the Tower Master pitifully asked his creation.
On this point, the completely rational Xiaobai No. 1 can't offer any good advice, and the other No. 2 is even less reliable; in fact, she hasn't appeared in Mo Ling's emotions lately.
“Then of course it must be the gift that best expresses your feelings, Lord Moling,” the reliable Mo Ke said.
“I’ve done a lot of research, and considering Mr. Mischel’s personality, I think the best gift would be—a wedding ring!”
"Get married??"
Faced with this shocking proposal, Mo Ling's face flushed red as if it were burning. She covered her eyes with her hands, her voice trembling, "S-Should we deliver it now?"
"But if Mr. Mischel hasn't agreed yet..."
"I think if you don't ask, he'll never know," Little White Number One quietly reminded him.
“But…but…” The Tower Master revealed his eyes, his voice softening with a gentle, low tone, “I’m afraid, afraid of hurting them, Mr. Misell, Ms. Eileen, Miss Clara…”
Standing at the pinnacle of magicians, Mo Ling naturally possesses unparalleled intelligence.
Moreover, she also has the ability to discern people's true intentions.
So it's not that she doesn't understand; if she were to speak, no one could compete with her right now. But as her true self, she embodies all the kindness of Mo Ling.
She was so gentle, her heart as delicate as a spider's thread.
It cannot bind the wickedness of the world, but it can bind the love in one's heart.
She cherishes Fan Wei, and also cherishes everyone she has met and gotten to know through him. Mo Ling hopes for an ending where everyone can find happiness.
Faced with Mo Ke and Xiao Bai No. 1's most rational analysis, as well as the various options listed afterward, she ultimately followed her heart.
She may be clumsy, but to Mr. Mischel, this is the real Moring!
"Are you sure it's this one?" Little White Number One asked, looking at the necklace that Mo Ling had made using the treasure vault's secrets and alchemy.
"Yes, I remember Mr. Misel mentioning to me that his clothes always got destroyed in battle."
Mo Ling held the necklace in her hands, revealing a gentle and pure smile, "If he had this, he wouldn't be troubled anymore."
In the southern part of Maze Street, at the 'Secret of the Night' clothing store, Clara is buying clothes.
This is very unusual, because all her clothes were bought for her by Fan Wei; the young girl rarely chose anything herself.
But today, she appeared here.
"How about this set? No man can resist such temptation~" The charming proprietress, who seemed very experienced, recommended it to the black-haired girl with a meaningful look.
"This is it, please wrap it up."
Clara's expression was indifferent, but her plan was like a burning wildfire; the meticulous girl never acted rashly.
Tomorrow, she's going to give her husband a big surprise.
