The Hero in Exile

Chapter 158 Cadden

“In the new year, I hope that my classmates will…”

Starting at about six in the morning, the heads of various departments began to take turns speaking. The content of their speeches was quite boring. There was even a situation where two speeches were almost identical. The leaders were extremely perfunctory.

"How long are you going to talk about this? I really want to go back to bed and have my unfinished dream with Phil."

The fat guy at the side was so exhausted that he could hardly stand, and he was only able to stand with the help of the big guy.

In fact, except for the fat man, many nobles present were also listless. Even the most diligent cows in the farmland would hum a few words when they were woken up to plow the fields, let alone people.

Moran's strength had recovered most of it, so he naturally didn't feel tired. What was more, he was overwhelmed by the long line of teachers waiting behind him.

"I don't know where Lingyu is."

Moran looked around but didn't see anyone. There were too many people there. If he used his magic power, he would be discovered. It would be really troublesome.

As for Lingyu, her situation wasn't much better.

Obviously, my physical fitness has reached the strongest human level on the continent, but when I saw them giving speeches, my head kept buzzing and I felt sleepy.

"Lingyu, Lingyu, don't sleep."

Phil sighed as he looked at the body in front of him that was about to fall. He had no idea how many times he had called Lingyu, but each time he could only hold on for a few minutes before he couldn't take it anymore.

I don’t know how Lingyu managed to keep swaying without falling.

"I'm sorry Lingyu, this isn't a solution anymore."

Phil extended his fingers to the back of Lingyu's neck.

"Frozen."

A cool air emanates from the fingertips, and if you look closely you can even see a hint of frost.

Lingyu also woke up immediately, but it wasn't that cold for her at the moment. It was like being rubbed with a popsicle, which could make a person wake up instantly but not be scared.

"Phil, you almost scared me. If I scream out in fear here, I will face something even more terrible than the time I fought against the Demon King."

People can die but they can never die socially.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Lingyu. It's mainly because you know your magic resistance. If it were normal, it would be like a cold wind blowing for you."

Phil also apologized quickly, which reminded her of the days when she first started practicing magic, when Phil and Lingyu were practicing actual combat.

Facing Lingyu who was charging at him aggressively, Phil immediately used the Pyroblast. He originally thought that Lingyu should be able to dodge it due to her agility. While he was thinking about the next countermeasure, Lingyu put on frost armor and rushed out of the explosion.

No tricks, just numbers.

"Next, please welcome Dean Kaiden from our magic academy."

Hearing that it was Kaiden Lingyu, he looked up curiously, the man who was crowned as the most powerful magician in the world.

His appearance instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the audience. He had handsome features, a dignified body, and a gentle look in his eyes under his cold appearance. The girls present were all crazy about him, while the boys were like they had seen a savior. As long as he was finished, it would be really over.

Lingyu also looked a little surprised, but unlike others, other people once said that Kaiden was an old man around 80 years old, but now with his appearance, saying he was 30 would be considered old.

"He's really Cadden, Phil, are you sure?"

"He is my master, how could I be wrong? Is there something wrong?"

“I just wonder if I’m too young.”

"I asked this before. It seems like she uses magic to suppress her true age so she stays young."

"So that's how it is." Lingyu muttered silently, but he had other thoughts in his heart.

Powerful magic and flesh can indeed resist the scratches of time, but Kaiden can't feel the passage of time on him. There are many people who pursue immortality or study this kind of magic, but as a brave man, his body inherits almost all the magic in this world. Is there really magic that can resist the life span?

Lingyu, who was looking at Kaiden's distraction, seemed to be noticed by his gaze, and Kaiden smiled in Lingyu's direction.

Was this recognition or was it seeing Phil?
