Hearing Lin Ruo's question, not only was Azik stunned for a moment, but Klein also turned his gaze towards him.
Lin Ruo is very confused… Klein was extremely clear about this. At this moment, Lin Ruo was not so much asking Azik as he was asking himself.
This made Klein purse his lips, feeling somewhat worried, yet not knowing what to say.
Azik naturally saw what Klein could see, after all, Lin Ruo didn't hide his emotions.
He paused, seemingly thinking, or perhaps organizing his words, before saying after a long while: "I have actually thought about this question, and have also been afraid because of it."
"Although not many memories have been recovered, I have actually noticed something… The me in my memories, and the current me are very different. Of course, I also worried that after I recover my memories, I would become a completely unfamiliar person."
"But I still want to find my memories… Just like you, you also want to find your memories, don't you?" Azik looked at Lin Ruo, suddenly reaching out and patting the latter's head twice, which stunned Lin Ruo.
Lin Ruo: ?
What are you doing, Mr. Azik!
I was once your teacher, you're practically betraying your teacher!
"So don't be too hung up on this question. Since we can't abandon the past, then naturally we can only continue to search for memories related to the past… The only suggestion I can give you is probably to try your best to hold onto something before you recover your memories and possibly become another person, so that at least you can leave some deep traces in your life."
"That sounds quite pessimistic…" Lin Ruo retorted, glancing at Azik, then focusing his gaze on Klein. He suddenly solemnly patted Klein's shoulder and said: "Kid, whether Dad can maintain himself in the future, and not be overwhelmed by thousands of years of memories, depends on you."
Lin Ruo knew that Mr. Azik was right. Since the memories must be recovered, instead of dwelling on this question, it's better to find a reliable anchor as soon as possible. Maybe by doing so, he can still maintain himself after recovering his memories.
And for Lin Ruo, what could be more reliable than Klein? Nothing!
Klein: ? ? ?
What the heck?
Klein was stunned for a moment, then he realized that Lin Ruo's words meant that he should become something similar to an anchor, a coordinate, to help him maintain himself in the future, so that he wouldn't directly become another person after recovering his memories.
Naturally, Klein had no objection to this, after all, he was actually very worried that Lin Ruo would become another person in the future.
Because the Lin Ruo he knew was only the current Lin Ruo, even if the previous Lin Ruo was awesome, he didn't know him after all.
However… "Lin Ruo!" Klein's face darkened, and along with the darkness, there was also some shame. Although he clearly knew that Lin Ruo had always wanted to be his dad, it was just a joke between the two of them before, and he had tolerated it.
But now Lin Ruo actually explicitly claimed to be Dad in front of Mr. Azik, and openly called him kid, how could Klein tolerate this.
"Sigh…" Lin Ruo pretended to sigh, looking like "My rebellious son hurts my heart."
"Dad…?" Mr. Azik was obviously stunned by Lin Ruo's self-proclaimed title. He looked at Lin Ruo suspiciously, then at Klein, and suddenly smiled, saying: "It seems that you two have a really good relationship."
Hearing this, Klein was stunned for a moment, and his gaze softened. Just then, Lin Ruo suddenly hooked his arm around his shoulder, looking like good brothers, and said:
"Of course, Klein is my good son!"
"Get lost!" Klein didn't even bother with Mr. Azik, coldly spitting out a word, and pulled Lin Ruo's claws off his shoulder.
"A son grown up is beyond his father's control…" Lin Ruo didn't resist either. Although his strength was really different, Klein definitely couldn't pull his arm away. After all, Lin Ruo just wanted to tease Klein. Seeing that the other party was already on the verge of exploding, he naturally wouldn't provoke him too much, just pretending to sigh.
Azik couldn't help but laugh at this scene. He remembered the "Teacher Lin Ruo" in his memory who always had a gentle smile on his face, but whose attitude towards him was always cold. He sincerely felt that the current Lin Ruo made him feel closer and more relaxed.
Then, Azik thought of something again, took out a black glove from his arms, and handed it to Lin Ruo, saying:
"By the way, this is the glove you sent me last time. It helped me a lot and reminded me of many things. Regarding its side effects, I have already dealt with them for you. Now it doesn't need to eat a person every day, just let it feed once after each use."
"Okay." Lin Ruo's eyes lit up, and he thanked him while taking the "Creeping Hunger": "Thank you for your help, Mr. Azik."
Although he knew that he had been Azik's teacher for a period of time, just as Lin Ruo said, he had no real feeling about these things at all, and this would not change Lin Ruo's attitude towards Mr. Azik.
"No need to thank me, you helped me first this time, didn't you?" Azik almost subconsciously replied with a smile, but then belatedly felt a little awkward.
In fact, compared to Lin Ruo, Azik, who had seriously recovered his memories, didn't have no feelings for that memory at all. However, just as he said, let the past be the past. Really dwelling on that memory would be a little embarrassing for both of them.
"This is… Creeping Hunger?" Klein looked at the black glove in Lin Ruo's hand, curious and also making some guesses.
"Yes, it is Creeping Hunger." Lin Ruo nodded, and smiled, saying: "Actually, this was originally prepared for you, the graduation reward after the end of the third stage."
"Huh?" Klein was stunned, looking at the black glove in Lin Ruo's hand in astonishment. The current him was not a newbie in the mystical field, so he naturally knew the value of "Creeping Hunger", especially listening to Mr. Azik's words, the negative effects of "Creeping Hunger" seemed to have been weakened by him, which undoubtedly further increased the value of "Creeping Hunger".
Such a Beyonder weapon, selling it for more than ten thousand pounds on the black market would probably be normal.
And now Lin Ruo actually said that he wanted to use "Creeping Hunger" as his graduation gift for the third stage… Klein's brain went blank for a moment, but before he could be happy, he heard Lin Ruo continue to say:
"But who told someone to refuse to admit the 'father-son relationship'? I think it's better not to use it as a reward… You're right, Klein?"
Klein: …
Don't talk to me, I don't want to talk!
Lin Ruo didn't care about his expression, but turned to look at Azik, his expression a little more serious: "Mr. Azik, I actually have something I want to ask you to help with."
