"Because I just want to repair the chain, and I don't like being someone else's knight. Lady Betty, why do you want me to be your exclusive knight?"

Betty looked confused for a moment, then said, "I...I don't know either."

Hecate smiled speechlessly and said, "There are many geniuses in Grants College. This knight does not have to be me. I will not tell your identity to others. I will go to repair my chain first."

Betty looked at Hecate's back as he left, stamped her feet, and said angrily: "Rosie, why didn't he agree? If he becomes my exclusive knight, his family will be protected by the royal family!"

The maid behind him smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, I don't know either."

......

Since Mr. Yi is not good, Hecate has a legitimate reason not to go to school. After all, this academy is a chain training school and this family is also a chain training school.

Hecate then turned back home and told his father about this matter. He must also know about the situation on the border.

"In that case, then don't go out for the time being. Wait until the academy says it's safe, then you can go to school." Earl Fortes said.

"My dear, father."

After returning to the room, Hecate continued to meditate and repair the chain. Now was a chaotic period, and the idea of the magic crystal phone had to be postponed temporarily. It was more important to repair the chain first.

On the next morning, Hecate came out of her meditation state and made a destiny draw.

Duang~

[Gift from Fate: Choose one kind of scientific knowledge, upgrade it to the mastery level, and shorten your hair by 10 cm.]

There is actually such a gift?

Hecate's eyes lit up, he accepted the gift and chose to upgrade his projection imaging magic to the mastery level. His originally shoulder-length hair was suddenly shortened to a refreshing short style.

I have to grow my hair long in the future, otherwise next time I encounter such a gift, I will be unlucky if I don’t have hair to replace it.

She touched her prickly hair and thought silently.

Going downstairs to have breakfast, Natasha saw that Hecate's hair had become so short, and asked in surprise: "Hecate, your hair..."

"I wasn't used to having long hair, so I cut it short." She smiled slightly.

"Don't you want to see it?"

Natasha blushed slightly and said, "Look, handsome."

During breakfast, the family was a little surprised by Hecate's mutant appearance, but they didn't say much. As long as it didn't affect the image of the Callilance family, it was fine.

After a while, Pri came to visit Hecate with a smile on her face.

Last time, after I told Pri that my family had come to the capital, she had always wanted to come visit, but she had no time because it was the middle of the day and she didn't have to go to school.

"Hecate, are you home?!" she shouted from outside the door.

Hecate had just walked into the corridor of the upper floor. She looked down from the window in the corridor and met Prilly's eyes. She smiled brightly.

Natasha nervously grabbed Hecate's sleeve and asked, "Who is she?"

"Friends from college."

Hecate walked to the first floor, opened the door and let Pri in, wondering: "Why did you come to visit so suddenly?"

"Hehe, if I don't go to school, I will definitely find someone to play with! I brought some magic rabbit cakes, do you want to eat some?" Pri happily picked up the cakes in her hand.

"Come in first." Hecate shook her head.

This guy is such an optimist. He doesn't even know how the border war will turn out, but he still has the energy to come to me to learn how to play.

Natasha came out from behind Hecate and looked at Pri with a wary look on her face.

Puli asked, "Is this your sister?"

"No, she is a friend I met in Yan City."

At this time, Betty also came. Her carriage stopped at the door, and when she got out, the three girls' eyes met inexplicably.

Hecate was a little confused, and felt as if the air had suddenly solidified, and the mischievous Pri was silent too.

She asked curiously, "Betty, why are you here too?"

"Well... I was passing by, so I wanted to come check on you."
