Chapter 201 201.Sawanna's Lies

Sawanna stood in the woods, looking at Scott in a daze.

She didn't seem to expect that she would be seen coming out of the forbidden forest.

It wasn't until Scott spoke to her and greeted her that she came back to her senses.

"Hello... Hello, Scott."

Her voice was a little stuttering when she greeted, and she blushed and hurriedly removed the leaves stuck to her hair.

"I... I..."

She seemed to want to explain why she came out of the forbidden forest, but she didn't say anything in a hurry.

But Scott didn't want to explore her behavior.

He guessed that this might be related to the way the druids inherited magic.

He just smiled and deliberately said in a teasing tone: "Sawanna, did you go to the forbidden forest to play? I didn't expect you to be so brave."

"Yes... yes." Sawanna quickly followed his words and said, "But it's okay... I mean there's no danger, because I have lived in the forest since I was a child."

The girl looked away guiltily when she spoke, not daring to look into Scott's eyes.

Scott wanted to laugh, but still nodded calmly.

"Are you going back to Ravenclaw Tower?" he said, "Let's go together."

"Okay!"

The girl answered excitedly and ran to Scott's side.

But when Scott turned to look at her, the girl quickly lowered her head.

"Let's go."

Scott stopped looking at her and walked directly to the castle.

Sawanna followed him closely.

"I can sense that your magic is very special." Scott said suddenly while walking.

"Ah!"

Sawanna exclaimed and froze in place.

Scott, who was walking in front, turned around and asked knowingly, "What's wrong?"

"This... this is..." The girl's eyes wandered and tried to explain, "This is innate!"

After saying this lie that she didn't even believe, Sawanna's face flushed, but contrary to her usual behavior, she stared at Scott stubbornly.

"..."

Scott silently retracted his gaze, turned around and continued to walk forward.

"So that's it." He said, "Let's go."

Footsteps sounded, and Sawanna chased after him.

"It's... it's true." She emphasized again.

Scott nodded and said deliberately: "I know that there are always some wizards in the magic world who have unique talents."

"Yes, that's it."

Sawanna walked to Scott's side and kept peeking at his expression, trying to see if he had believed her lies.

Scott didn't tease her anymore, and the two of them went all the way back to the Ravenclaw common room.

"I... I'm going back to the dormitory. Goodbye, Scott."

Sawanna whispered, and without waiting for Scott's response, she quickly ran up the stairs leading to the female student dormitory.

Scott watched her back disappear in the corridor above the stairs.

"Scott!"

Jacob, who was sitting on the sofa in front of the window of the common room reading a book, waved to Scott.

He had a teasing smile on his face.

"What's wrong?"

Scott walked to the sofa next to him and sat down.

Jacob closed the book in his hand and said to him with a smile: "It seems that you already know it."

Know what?

Scott didn't understand in his heart, but he pretended to understand and nodded and hummed on the surface.

"When I told Savannah that you didn't like that nickname, she was very flustered." Jacob continued.

Nickname?

Scott immediately understood...

"The Hound of Ravenclaw".

The nickname that annoyed him at the time, and the apology letter he received on Valentine's Day this year...

It turned out that they were all from Savannah.

No wonder.

When he was doing arithmetic divination for Savannah the day before, he felt that the handwriting on the parchment looked familiar.

Because he had long forgotten the letter, he didn't remember where he had seen Savannah's handwriting for a while.

This is probably why the girl was so nervous in front of him?

However, in the traditional culture of the Celts, being called a hound or something like that is indeed not humiliating.

Just look at the hero Cu Chulainn in the traditional Irish mythology.

The name Cu Chulainn means Culin's Fierce Dog.

"According to my observation, Savannah has been avoiding you before." Jacob smiled again, "She should know now that you have no intention of settling accounts with her."

He is in the same grade as Savannah and knows more.

"It's just a misunderstanding. I'm just not used to that nickname. I don't mean to blame that little girl." Scott, who came back to his senses, said to Jacob calmly.

No wonder he didn't notice the girl's peculiar magic before.

"How are Savannah's grades?" Scott asked curiously.

Ravenclaw said that after practicing Druid heritage magic, it will affect the effectiveness of other types of spells.

"Are you concerned about her?" Jacob winked at Scott.

This kid has become lively too.

Scott said unhappily: "I sense that her magic is a bit special.

Jacob said: "She performed well in Herbology and Potions, and her grades in other courses are average. Oh, she learned better in Transfiguration than in Charms."

Sure enough.

Scott nodded.

"You really don't care about her?" Jacob looked at him curiously again, "If it's true, I think she will be very happy."

"What do you think?" Scott looked at him with calm eyes.

Jacob said in an exclamatory tone: "Speaking of which, I'm afraid you haven't noticed that you have many admirers among the lower grades of the college."

"Adore?" Scott looked at him in surprise, "It's hard for Ravenclaw students to have admiration for anyone."

"That's true. Ravenclaw students are more selfish."

Jacob nodded in agreement at first, and then said: "But you are different."

Scott raised an eyebrow.

Jacob said: "Not to mention anything else, just defeat Slytherin with transfiguration and find the crown with arithmetic divination. These two things are enough for many students to talk about you."

"So that's it." Scott nodded in understanding.

"You are very popular, isn't this worthy of your happiness?" Jacob looked at Scott's calm face in surprise.

"Happy? A little bit," Scott said.

If he really wants to set up some kind of organization and become a demon king as Jacob thought before, then he will indeed be very happy.

But he had no such idea.

So, there is only some small happiness.

Compared to these, there are too many things that can attract his attention.

"It seems you don't take this kind of thing to heart." Jacob said.

After saying goodbye to him, Scott returned to the dormitory.

He took out the recipe from the Alchemist and continued to study the book he borrowed from Professor Babuling.
