My Girlfriend is an S-Class Adventurer-Chapter 355 Unusual Offer

Luke kept trying to read for several minutes, but with each paragraph that he finished reading, he kept thinking about Alexis and Ayumi. This lack of concentration was bothering him. His heart was restless, worried about what might be happening outside the academy. Several thoughts were echoing in the young man's head.

[Calm down Luke, it's getting hard to live here.]

'Ah, sorry Balance...'

[No problem, I understand the reason for your concern. But thinking about it now won't do any good! Try to go out for a while, breathe, and put those thoughts aside.]

The goddess's Proposal made sense. An hour had passed since Luke had started reading. But even after so much time, he didn't seem to have enjoyed reading as much. Lying on the table, Megan was still sleeping soundly. Then the half-wolf concluded that today's research was over. 𝗳𝘳𝐞e𝙬𝙚𝚋𝗻𝚘𝚟𝗲l.𝑐𝑜ｍ

He had decided to go out and rest for a while on the beach. At the lab door, Luke peeked out cautiously, but there were no more curious students outside. Relieved, he went outside.

The moment he opened the door, he immediately saw Adrian walking far away toward the lab, down a sandy path that led to the concrete stairs that went down to the beach sand. It was not yet so late, the sun was still up, illuminating the sea that sparkled with each wave, the strong wind from the beach was swaying Luke's hair, bothering his ears a little.

The half-wolf then walked across the sand until he sat down on the ladder that leveled the descent to the sand. Looking out to sea, he enjoyed the wonderful sound of the waves, letting the melody wash away any thoughts he had. It was a sense of peace that invigorated Luke's restless heart.

[Now you'd better find some peace boy].

'Hahaha, it's true. I've really been quite troubled.'

[Try to focus on the now, let's think about the future at a better time. For now, this fear and trepidation won't help you at all].

'You're right balance, I just need to stay in the now.'

[You know, it's not wrong to keep worrying about them. But don't let it hurt you!]

A few minutes later Adrian arrived, who sat down next to Luke. The half-wolf didn't like his presence very much, he still wanted a little more time alone. It was possible to see the look of annoyance in his eyes.

"Busy day?" The blond boy asked.

"Not so much, but it seems they looked for me quite a bit." replied the half-wolf.

Luke chose not to send the boy away and the blond boy did not understand that the half-wolf's annoyance, was his presence there.

Adrian then put his hands behind his head, looking at the horizon he began to speak.

"Today I was running around helping Zhanid. From what I could tell, in every corner of the academy they were commenting on you."

"Really? Strange, Megan told me very little about what happened. Looks like it was some kind of misunderstanding," Luke replied.

"Still, be careful, drawing that much attention is never beneficial. With the skill level you have, I'm sure they'll soon start challenging you to some duels." continued Adrian

"It wouldn't be so bad, I'm already feeling rusty from staying here without being able to hit anyone," continued the half-wolf

The two started laughing and continued talking about what had happened. Luke explained the story of his confrontation with Orion, telling what really happened and understanding a little better the rumors that spread around the academy.

"They are saying that you beat Orion in a duel, he is a golden pendant and you are just a novice researcher. You'll need to avoid attracting attention for a while or you'll only gain trouble." Adrian explained.

However, Luke liked the idea of drawing attention at the academy. If he demonstrated his ability and strength, he might be able to more easily gather potential members for the rebellion against Melki's empire. Since several students were from outside the academy, it would be easy to gather those with high ability who were opposed to the empire. As, for example, Adrian himself, the boy was from Paratto, this alone was reason enough to count on his possible support.

The conversation continued until, from afar, they both noticed the arrival of a small boy running on the sand. The young man was short and had extremely blue hair, and eyes that were also blue.

He was dressed in his academy uniform, but in front of his body was a leather apron. Beside his waist a small hammer was attached swinging from his belt. It took the boy a few minutes to get in front of the two, who looked at him in confusion.

Gasping for breath, he stood in front of them both. After pulling in a good amount of air he bent down in front of Luke.

"Let me make your sword! Please!" He said, looking down.

The half-wolf was obviously confused by the unexpected offer. Apart from the apron and hammer, nothing about the little boy showed that he was really a blacksmith. The blue-headed boy's body was small and slender, his arms were thin, and his hands had no calluses or signs of manual labor. In general, he appeared to be just an inexperienced child.

The little blacksmith then continued to speak explaining himself:

"I am part of the academy's blacksmith group, I overheard that Orion was going to take you to order a sword. The whole academy is talking about your duel with him, it's my only chance to promote my work. So let me make your sword! Please!"

Because of the doubts of the boy's ability, Luke didn't take long to think of a response. He didn't want to hurt the feelings of such a dedicated young man, so he thought he would give it a chance, so that this child would at least learn from this story.

"First, what is your name?" The half-wolf asked.

"M-My name is Ezra! Ezra Bluesmith! And I will be the best craftsman of the world!"

Adrian began to laugh at the boy's name and goal. But the half-wolf took the boy's wish seriously. Extending his hand to Ezra, he said:

"Nice to meet you Ezra, I'm Luke Lange, the best rogue of the world.

Luke replied, laughing. Then he continued:

"I accept your proposal, I needed a glider greatsword. I'm still going to be busy today, but what do you say tomorrow, we meet up and you show me some of your designs, Is that okay?"

Little Ezra's eyes began to water, with a smile he thanked him, bowing again.

"Thank you very much for the opportunity Mr. Luke! I will contact you again tomorrow then!"

The Young Man then ran out of there, taking small leaps of animation. In Ezra's head, only one thing was going on.

'I will show him the quality of my weapons!'

At the boy's unexpected exit, Luke and Adrian looked at each other in confusion. The blond mage then questioned:

'Are you really going to trust the design of someone so young? He looked like he was about 12 years old."

"Tomorrow I will go early to meet with Orion again, I don't want this misunderstanding to continue. He had already told me that he could guide me to the forge, so I'll just take the time to talk to this boy.

Luke then looked at the sea, which even in daylight still had a darker color than the boy's hair.

"Maybe he can surprise me, who knows," continued the Half-wolf, getting up with his book and heading for the research lab.

Adrian followed Luke, they both entered the lab again, went up the stairs and found Megan still sleeping. The girl was talking very quietly, in a deep sleep.

"You just need to reverse the room circle mister banana, but don't die please mister banana." The girl was drooling a little on the table.

When Adrian saw that scene, he started laughing very loudly, waking Megan up. She stood up slowly, with her hair in a mess. Until she opened her eyes and faced the two of them, when she realized she was asleep, her cheeks turned completely red with embarrassment. The young blonde then tried to joke about the situation.

"You look kind of cute in your sleep." replied Adrian.

Megan then clenched her hands together, looking down in irritation. She then held out one of her hands and began to whisper a spell.

"Ikeradis Water Cannon."

A ball of water flew out of the girl's hand, heading towards the blonde mage's face. Adrian fell to the ground with the direct hit to the head. Megan then stood up and continued to shoot water spheres at the boy's face.

The attack was not strong enough to hurt, but Adrian was certainly not enjoying it. It took a while for Megan to calm down, so she walked away stepping hard on the ground. With each step, a loud thud shook the floor.

Adrian was lying on the wet floor, looking up at the ceiling exhausted and sorry. Luke was holding himself back from laughing at the whole situation, but when the young magician left, he completely fell over laughing.
