She has always treated him like a younger brother.

Otherwise, they wouldn't keep encouraging it.

now……

Philon looked conflicted and lowered his head slightly.

Snapped.

Selena then gently put down the pen and paper in her hand.

She placed her hands folded on her knees and continued to gaze at Philen, her tone as gentle as a caring older sister:

"Well, I can understand what a girl your age is thinking."

"I'm just worried about what will happen if my parents find out."

What you perceive as love may just be friendship to him.

"After all, he probably didn't directly say that he liked you."

Indeed, no, although given his introverted personality, it would be impossible for him to express his feelings directly.

However, the way he was so desperate to get close to her... it was hard not to make her think of that.

Philen slowly exhaled, his mind filled with a myriad of thoughts.

She slowly raised her purple eyes and asked with slight hesitation:

"What should I do, Ms. Selena? Right now, I just want to focus on my studies, whether it's love or friendship."

"But I don't want to upset Shutark either."

She would graduate soon, but at that time, Shutark had just started her studies.

They worked so hard to get closer to me, but just as they got close, I left...

What would he be thinking?

Philen seemed to see his dejected figure, a blow that was bound to be heavy.

She didn't want to see it.

"interesting."

Selena scrutinized Philon, tapping the table lightly. She had never seen her disciple so emotional.

This defeat probably helped Philon grow a lot; she had always had a smooth life and had never experienced any setbacks before.

Now that I have had this experience and gained such profound understanding, my personality has naturally become more perfect, and I will be more considerate of others.

Thinking of this, her fingers, which were tapping the table, slowly stopped:

"You're so gentle, Philon. Don't worry too much."

"The duties of warriors and mages are the same: to protect the human race from the invasion of monsters."

"Therefore, after you graduate, you can have your mother arrange for you to go to the same place."

She paused here, recalling her first meeting with Philon.

The little girl from back then has now blossomed into a beautiful young woman. Her gaze softened and she continued:

"You were born in one of the southern countries, right?"

"Shutark was born on the border of the Central Continent, which is not far away."

“He will definitely leave home when he grows up, so you can try to ask him indirectly.”

The question, of course, was whether Shutark was willing to go to the southern countries with Philon.

Since Philon is her disciple, everything will definitely be led by her.

Upon hearing these words, Philon was stunned.

The wind outside the window suddenly became noisy, blowing her long hair into disarray.

Although it was a valid suggestion, it somehow sounded like meeting the parents or marrying into the family.

She is very easygoing and can go anywhere.

But since the teacher has said that...

Philon nodded vigorously:

"Yes, I understand, Ms. Selena, but what if he doesn't agree?"

“I disagree…” Selena chuckled softly.

"If he disagrees, it means that his feelings for you are limited to friendship."

"Since it's a friendship, there's no need to pay attention to it."

Philen finally understood.

Her previously melancholy mood suddenly brightened, and her eyes regained their bright light.

Seeing this, Selena waved her hand helplessly:

"Well, it's good that things are out in the open. You can leave now. I still need to go see my mother. I hope we don't become classmates."

Philon looked at the mountain of books on the teacher's desk, his heart filled with gratitude. He thanked her softly and then turned to leave.

To be honest, she was quite looking forward to the idea of ​​her teacher becoming her classmate.

Although the probability is slim.

And so, in the days that followed, Philon found a sunset and posed the question to Shutark, who was wiping his axe.

After thinking for a while, and wanting to prove himself rather than grow up under his brother's protection, Hugh Tarek replied, "Wherever you go, I'll go."

Upon hearing this, Philon's feelings were indescribably complicated.

really…

As she gazed at the last rays of sunset on the horizon, something within her quietly changed.

……

……

Selena becoming Philon's classmate ultimately did not happen.

When she turned around, she discovered that her mother had gone on a trip with her father and wouldn't be back for at least ten years.

This news brought Selena a sigh of relief.

After all, ten years later, Philon would have long since graduated, and in that time, she would have had enough time to improve her magic control.

Time flowed by, and Selena spent these days in a relaxed atmosphere.

Philon and Shutark successfully progressed to higher education and graduated, and then moved to the southern countries as planned.

Several years later, when Ronan returned, the students had already been replaced.

Yubel, the former warrior and killer, has also been gradually forgotten in the relentless passage of time.

"Is Philonage nineteen? And he's formed a duo with Shutark? By the way, who's Shutark... oh, that Tomato."

In the living room, Ronan suddenly realized something and tapped his fingers on the armrest.

He rarely pays attention to people other than himself, let alone children.

Has even Hugh Talke's life undergone a dramatic transformation?

The village was not massacred by the demons, and she enrolled in school because of her brother's influence.

Because of her weak personality, she caught the attention of Philon and was protected by him. In the end, she won Philon's favor through her efforts.

Well, this is a classic underdog-to-hero story.

Ronan shook his head.

But that's fine too.

The younger generation should handle their own affairs.

I wouldn't interfere in such a trivial matter.

Look at Selena.

He gestured for her to continue.

The future is long.

The story of Philon and Shutark is but a ripple in the long river of time.

Perhaps things will eventually return to calm, or perhaps they will stir up new waves.

But in any case, that was their own choice and fate.

Author's Closing Remarks

OK, it's officially over. The side story isn't long; it mainly describes the changes in the world after the protagonist's existence, the changes in the storylines of related characters, and explains what happens next.

Although I could continue writing, I think this length is enough, and I'll end it with Philon and Shutark graduating and moving.

Simmel was reincarnated and remained so until Aura truly became human.

I'm personally quite satisfied. Phyllen is too young, so I'm raising her like a daughter.

Parents are alive.
