Picking up Girls With My System-Chapter 327 Big News For Eleonora
Eleonora dropped the sword she was wielding, gazing straight at the youth who appeared in the training field.
She could not believe what her eyes were showing her, but no matter how many times she blinked, the face of the youth remained the same. Arthur was important to her in ways she could not explain, and Eleonora could not help but scream his name.
"Arthur? Are you truly there? I am not dreaming, right?" Eleonora said.
"Yes, I am here. Come," Arthur said, opening up his arms.
He did not need to say a word, as Eleonora understood the message. Instead, she ran toward him, jumping in his arms, something she had been dreaming of doing since the very moment Arthur left.
Eleonora's arms wrapped around Arthur's waist, but differently from Signy, she was not holding back! Eleonora held him tightly, afraid he could vanish at any moment.
Arthur had no problem hugging her, but the youth training with her had, as he was angrily gazing at the two of them. He watched Arthur and Eleonora hug for some time before saying, "Eleonora, who is this?"
He was not liking how the situation was going, especially after noticing this mysterious youth was someone handsome, even more than he was. Could it be a secret lover of Eleonora? He did not want to think about that, but it was right in front of him, so denying it would be plain stupid.
"He is just a friend and also the person who built this school," Eleonora said.
The idea of just a friend was not something the youth believed in, but when Eleonora said he was the founder of Odemore, the shock was visible on his face.
"What? Are you truly Arthur? The strongest mage this continent ever produced?"
Arthur was not necessarily from that continent nor from that universe, but the youth was correct when he said Arthur was the strongest mage from that place. ƒ𝓇e𝙚𝔀𝐞𝚋𝓃𝐨𝘷e𝙡.𝒄𝗼m
"Yes, I am. Nice to meet you, but can I have some private time with Eleonora? We have some important things to discuss." Arthur said.
What he had in mind to discuss with her was the demon continent, Nefion, and the idea of them going with him to the central continent. But what the youth had pictured inside his mind was the two of them deciding what beach they would choose for their marriage.
"Of course, Bye Eleonora, see you later."
"Bye, James."
James left the training area, returning to his dorm room. He only looked down during the way, holding his tears each time he thought about Eleonora and Arthur together.
"Who is that?" Arthur asked.
"A friend who has a crush on me, but my heart is with someone else," Eleonora said, her breath getting irregular and her cheeks as red as two tomatoes.
"Can you show me your room?"
"W-What? Why do you want to go to my room?"
Wild thoughts crossed Eleonora's mind, but Arthur said, "for us to talk in private? I also want a place to sit."
She sighed in relief, leading the way through Odemore, leaving the training area where most students used, going directly toward the women's dormitory.
A rule prohibited male students from going near the women's dormitory due to some past problems. Eleonora was unsure how the others would react to it, but it should be okay for Arthur to go there, as he was the person who controlled the school, as well as its rules.
If there was one person who could do anything he wanted inside Odemore, that person was Arthur. fortable, so we should lie on the bed," Eleonora said.
After saying it, she realized the severity of her sentence, but Arthur did not mind as he jumped on her bed, "ah, this feels so good."
Eleonora saw Arthur, who was not overthinking the situation, so she calmed down after a few deep breaths and did the same as him.
"So, what are we talking about?"
Arthur did not know how he should start. A lot of things were happening simultaneously, but the most crucial thing for Eleonora was Nefion! She had yet to realize he was alive and well, waiting for her in the central continent.
"Eleonora, you will have to come with me to the central continent."
"What? Really?"
She had wanted to go with him since a long time ago, but her strength was mediocre, but now she had reached the level of a ninth circle mage! And her dragon powers were increasing too.
"Yes, you will be safer there with your father," Arthur said.
The room went completely silent after the sentence, and Elenora started to doubt her ears. Did Arthur say what she had just heard? Or was it something else?
"What did you say?"
Despite her usual timid behavior, Eleonora grabbed Arthur by the shoulders and asked again, "what did you say?"
"Nefion, your father, is alive. We met not long ago, but the central continent had too many troubles to deal with, and he got hurt in the last fight. That is why he has not come to see you."
After Eleonora calmed down, Arthur explained everything to her, and she could not wait to explore a different place but, more importantly, meet with her father again.
