Hughes was not a fool, judging from what had just happened.
The little girl beside him and the little boy must have known each other and were very familiar with each other.
Otherwise, the little boy would not have recognized the little girl just by looking at her back.
From the looks of it, the little girl's purpose in coming to him was a little intriguing.
What was her purpose?
What did she want from me?
The clues were limited, and Hughes did not dare to make wild guesses.
He decided to wait and see. Now that he was on guard, he was confident that he would be able to detect the little girl's intentions if she wanted to harm him.
After two lifetimes, Hughes's mind was not something an ordinary young man could compare to.
A little girl of Sylvie's age basically would not pose too much of a threat to him.
Just as he was thinking about something, Sylvie suddenly shook his arm.
"My name is Sylvie. I'm a student of the capital's No.3 Magic School. I just turned fifteen this year, and I advanced to Tier-2 a few months ago. What about you? What's your name?"
Sylvie looked at Hughes with a smile, her eyes filled with cute innocence.
"Ah, my name is Hughes."
Compared to Sylvie, Hughes' self-introduction was exceptionally concise.
However, there was nothing he could do about it. Three years ago, after Hughes failed to awaken his talent, he dropped out of the No.1 magic school in the Imperial City.
Strictly speaking, he was a mage without a high school diploma.
However, his brief self-introduction did not reduce Sylvie's interest in him. Instead, it aroused Sylvie's strong curiosity.
He was Hughes! The Hughes who was hot news in the imperial city for the past two days.
As the saying goes, good news does not go out, but bad news spreads far and wide!
The people's rally, Derrick opening a bet for Hughes, and Lucian announcing publicly that he would challenge Hughes.
The three major events that shocked the imperial city had long made Hughes, who had been silent for three years, once again rise to the top of the Imperial City's hot search rankings.
In this recent period, his name was known to everyone!
Sylvie gently raised her eyes and secretly glanced at the decorative patterns on Hughes' robe.
One would not know if one did not look, but one would be shocked if one did.
On the cuff of wizard Hughes' robe, there was a tulip made of gold thread.
Although this tulip was very small and only occupied a finger-sized piece of cloth on the cuff of Hughes' robe, tjemeticulous Sylvie did not miss this detail.
"It really is him. I actually caught such a big fish this time. It seems that I need to grasp this opportunity well,'" Sylvie thought to himself.
In the Europa continent, every aristocratic family in the upper-class society had a different family emblem.
Sylvie was born into an aristocratic family and had received an aristocratic education since she was young.
With her eyesight, there was no way she would mistake the family emblem for something else.
Moreover, the Royal Academy of the Hiro Empire was not a place where ordinary people could register.
Among the examinees who registered every year, less than 10% of the examinees came from the commoner class.
These examinees were all talented students from all over the empire. The pride in their hearts did not allow them to wear the family crest of other families.
As for those examinees who came from noble families, they were even less so.
They were already nobles in the Empire and had their own family crest. There was no need for them to spend so much effort to pretend to be Hughes just to get face.
After guessing Hughes' identity, Sylvie did not expose Hughes' ridiculously simple self-introduction at the immediately.
Other than herself not introducing her own family, she also had a little romantic intention.
A beautiful and moving noble girl and a handsome noble youth got together because of an exam.
Then, they entered the same academy and met the same teacher.
In the school, they supported each other. Although there would be some arguments during this period, the fate between them was not broken because of this little disturbance in the process.
Instead, after experiencing many setbacks, they became even closer!
In the end, under the expectations of their relatives, the wishes of their friends, and the blessings of the great mage of light, the two of them advanced hand in hand and entered the palace of marriage.
After that, the two of them gave birth to a large number of babies and spent their lives together.
As she thought about it, Sylvie's eyes actually became moist.
At this moment, she seemed to see a moving scene. Under the sunset, she leaned against Hughes and sat on a bench on the streets of the imperial city.
She looked at Hughes with deep affection and asked in a low voice, "Do you love me?".
Hughes gently rubbed her already pale hair and responded to her affectionately, "I will always love you!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's so embarrassing!"
'Yes?'?
Hughes looked at Sylvie in confusion. "What is this girl thinking about? Why is her face red?"
Sylvie was also shocked by the words she had said unintentionally.
She looked at Hughes in a daze. The redness on her face gradually spread and dyed her small face into the morning glow of the horizon.
After a long while, Sylvie finally couldn't bear Hughes' gaze.
She pulled her hand out of Hughes' arm, then quickly ran away with her long legs.
"Hey, where are you going! Aren't we looking for a map?"
No matter how stupid Hughes was, he could still see some clues from the surrounding environment and Sylvie's expression.
For this reason, he deliberately asked this question.
"You're so stupid. The exam hall is right in front of us. Why are you looking for a map! ?"
"Oh, I can't find it. It's okay. Next time, come and hold my arm. We'll look for it together."
Hughes deliberately pretended not to understand Sylvie's meaning and instead counter attacked.
Sylvie, who had just run far away, suddenly stopped and almost fell down.
Little prick, you're pretending that you don't know the way. If you want to hit on me, just say it. It's not like I won't give you a chance.
Hughes looked at Sylvie's back with a faint smile, and his mood instantly improved.
…
It was still early, and there were still more than 20 minutes before the start of the exam.
Hughes walked unhurriedly toward the exam hall, which was more than 500 meters away.
As he walked, he tidied up his mood and adjusted his condition to the best.
He walked to the main entrance and handed over his examination certificate to the official who was testing his qualifications. After that, Hughes found a seat and sat down.
"Hughes, right? Your seat is at the third seat in the fifth row of the seventh examination room. Take this sign and go over there and wait."
The official who was testing the exam qualifications had a look of disgust in his eyes. 'For someone who needs to find connections for this kind of exam. You'll only be garbage once you enter the Academy!'
Ding Ding Ding!
A series of urgent bells rang. Hughes followed the group of examinees into the exam room.
The exam officially began!
