"Explain?!"
Medivh looked at August, his brows furrowing slightly.
"Uh… …"
"Father, I was wrong!"
After August caught a glimpse of Medivh's expression, his face suddenly changed. He seemed to have mistakenly thought Medivh was angry, and he kept apologizing with a'squeak, squeak, wuwu' sound.
"Tell me, where did you go wrong?!"
Medivh looked at August, asking seriously.
"I shouldn't have attacked a stranger first."
"You said that people who attack first are bad children…"
August hesitated for a while before speaking earnestly.
"That's not important!"
"The important thing is, how many times have I told you not to put yourself in danger? Being a Mage is like walking on the edge of a knife! One wrong move, and you could fall into a ditch! So, when we do things, we must be steady!
"If I hadn't been there just now, how would you have resisted that terrifying curse?!"
Medivh's brows were tightly furrowed. He looked at August, his voice cold and authoritative.
"I don't know…"
August lowered his head…
He stared blankly at his toes in his sandals, not daring to look up at Medivh.
"And how many times have I told you that when you encounter danger, you should come back to Father immediately? Yet, when you encountered danger, what were you doing? You were showing off! You put your life in danger without a care!"
Just when August thought Medivh was about to criticize him…
August suddenly felt a warmth, as he was gently embraced by Medivh! Medivh's eyes held no blame, only endless worry: "August, first, Father must admit that your talent is very high, and your power is also very strong! Far stronger than Father was at eight years old! Even stronger than most people in this Earth-land World."
"But this world is vast, and there are many dangerous enemies. Some of them have been practicing magic for dozens, even hundreds of times longer than you've been alive in this world! So, you must be cautious. Never let your guard down, unless you're tired of being by Father's side and want to leave me forever."
"Of course, I don't want to…"
August was emotional. He grabbed Medivh's shoulders and shook his head.
"Just as you don't want to lose Father, Father doesn't want to lose you."
Medivh was a bit emotional. He looked at August and spoke earnestly.
"Father…"
August's eyes were red, and tears 'pat, pat' streamed from his eyes. His voice hoarse, he whispered: "I just saw Father's enemy, and I wanted to lighten Father's burden."
"August, you must understand…"
"Although Father has many enemies in this world."
"They are not important to Father."
"You are Father's most important thing… one of them, in this world, do you understand?!"
Medivh looked at August patiently and explained.
"I understand."
August nodded, speaking choked up.
"Alright, stop crying."
"Today, Father will take you out to eat."
"We must celebrate properly today."
Medivh said, picking August up from the ground and walking towards Violet Town.
"Huh? Why?"
"Is there anything worth celebrating today?"
Upon hearing this, August blinked his big eyes, looking at Medivh confusedly, and asked.
"Today, you helped Father beat up a guy Father always wanted to deal with but couldn't find an opportunity, so we must celebrate properly…"
Medivh stroked August's little head and said with a chuckle.
"Huh?!"
August's eyes lit up as he listened. He knew that as long as he severely beat Zeref, Medivh would definitely be very happy.
On the other side.
"Whoosh!"
"Boom!!"
Accompanied by a roar…
Zeref, who was releasing a powerful curse all over his body, was thrown into a sea by Medivh.
"Gurgle… …"
Zeref was submerged in the seawater, bubbles coming from his mouth. He felt as if all his internal organs were filled with water, but even so, he wouldn't die.
Suddenly, Zeref felt a bit sleepy.
Hmm, time for a nap! After waking up, all the past pain would be forgotten.
