另一邊廂，宿舍房間內，急於修理破劍的派恩，把總算無事入手的蒼鐵搗成粉末，放進燒杯裏。魔力漸漸在手中形成火苗，放到本生燈上旺盛燃燒起來。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSn6b2dRgr

「先提煉成精華，再倒進缺口裡……」燒紅的玻璃容器裡，原來一塊塊的閃藍小石都熔化成流體。派恩小心翼翼以夾子拿起它，緩緩傾斜著它好讓裡面物質沿杯緣落到重劍劍身。藍黑流體覆蓋在劍身破洞上逐漸凝固，剛好完全堵塞其中缺口。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBYvZf9E2Hf

「派恩哥哥，有人找你。」門外傳來柔伊的叫喊聲，可是思緒全力專注於眼前重劍的派恩根本沒聽見她的叫喊。沒幾秒，大門被粗暴打開，巨響截斷了他的思路，逼使他把注意力移向後方。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuuaTDZyff

「繆兒？」開門進來的，正是破劍的主人繆兒。他關上門，桀驁不馴的樣子仰望書桌前的派恩。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4rkcYit2ps

繆兒走到桌子前，拿起剛「修復」完成的愛劍，看著那大塊藍黑色補丁緊皺起眉頭。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeyeiaUQe5

「你的知識令你變得聰明，但同時亦令你變得愚蠢。」他伴隨嘆息把重劍放回桌上，再道：「這狀況，只能算作半成品。」398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OR22KDwOi

398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaqn0RBN3H
「是的，我知道，還差最後一個步驟。」聽了繆兒連番帶刺抱怨，派恩隨即把右手放在蒼鐵補丁中央，在接觸一刻，一條條鮮藍光線旋即從手掌掩蓋之處向四方蔓延，在補丁上描畫劍身缺口處失去的模樣，巧妙地與整把重劍融為一體。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8wdkjcWgk

「蒼鐵對眾生有害，那是因為它本質受到神的影響而產生的產物；但正正因為這種特質，我們就可以與當中力量共鳴，利用它修繕破損器物。」派恩鬆開手，本來堵塞缺口之處已不復見，這重劍就如同起初一般簇新而威風。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTZuopaoZa

繆兒再度單手抓起劍柄，另一隻手觸摸本來缺口所在的位置，手指落在紋樣縫隙處仔細檢查。不出他所料，用作補丁的蒼鐵經派恩手裡與完全契合於其劍身材質，變回與那魔人激烈一戰先前的模樣。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1OD2isVDk

「哼……忒鉈，下次再會，我定必將你葬於始界大地。」拋下如此一句，繆兒便喚出光子把重劍收起，無視坐在客廳的柔伊和克西，領著門外侍從揚長而去。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSrpq4YJf5

「呼……那小子總算走了。他簡直是個會走路的壓力塊。」癱坐在沙發上，一直默不作聲的克西終於吭出話來。他一躍起來，把滑板放在地上，一臉期待地對忙碌替派恩整理論文的柔伊揮手說道：「本大爺要去找貝塔小姐了，拜拜！」398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWQWN8XTHb

「派恩哥哥在趕論文，你們找他幹嘛？」這時柔伊放下紙疊，走到門口答道。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo9pNeC9K7

「那個……妳怎麼會在男子宿舍？」看到回應他們的竟是個稚嫩女孩，不禁使兩人羞紅起臉來。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3dPvdT33SZ

398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0i7qyJQDQ
避過柔伊不忿氣的視線，兩人急步走向書房。以為自己總算可以專注於論文的派恩聽到門外擾攘，回過頭來，見兩名學弟已站在跟前，稍抹過臉上汗珠便匆匆吐話：398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wAd2AuV22

「學長，你是不是帶了個騎士打扮的男性進校園了？」398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOJwHkogBZ

398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsE2Bog3iV
「……我們剛才經過醫療室，看到魔武器學院的教授們帶著手下把他抬走了。」398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZJBo78odBX
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FM2BGrOWZ
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRYdGfRZOC
派恩從來沒想到，這次事件似乎早就傳到教授耳邊。「……那幫斯圖希安人到底想怎樣？」398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JMYNyt69Y
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1kDBHLpKM
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjslGakfYG
然而，他亦無暇思索更多，為了收拾如此殘局，他也只好再度提起揹著無形重荷的身子，走出房間大門前，又特意回頭吩咐柔伊和克西：398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHGveAFHSQ
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEca17WqRr
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRVS4NcX3k
「你們先待在宿舍裡，暫時先別讓魔武器學院的人看到你們倆。」398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARy7M5Dsng
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAB3LIKFug
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlvG18ygNB
未待柔伊和克西作出反應，派恩早已操作著透明箱子消失眼簾中。空氣漸漸變得不穩，彷彿宣告著危機到臨，即使他倆對魔武器學這門學問一竅不通，從那幫教授們像到處張揚「教義」一般，立志要以魔法改造無害事物成為武器的偏執早就曝露出其無上野心。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcZY5UkH68
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFn2Jfb5qc
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSu1OSHm98
「怎麼辦？派恩哥哥會是那幫瘋子的對手嗎？」縱使從未懷疑過派恩的實力，教授們臭名遠揚的作風卻使柔伊無法抑住心裡擔憂。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdagaLHQX9L
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqyJqdAn3q
398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8bjuUfXp7
「切……就怕那幫瘋老頭會迷上本大爺。」克西繼續攤手坐在沙發上，落寞盯看著天花板。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjyz4UlJDv

398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjJ7EAx2fn
「不管那麼多了！派恩哥哥這樣一去，那幫人一定不會輕易放過他，所以我們不能坐視不理！」398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46hMv42D7l

398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe90tTRE7a
漠然看著這小小身子不理勸告奔出家門，克西仍是一副自以為是的樣子，哼著歌站了起來，抱著滑板輕步步出大門。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8YGZg68Af

眾多學院大樓都集中於中央區附近，惟魔武器學院大樓則靜靜座落在西北一角，銀黑色的建築與學園一貫的粉白風調格格不入，使得它即使落在人稀之處仍十分顯眼。重門深鎖前，站著是異鄉少女和白衣男孩，一路跟蹤著教授們的步伐，來到這裡卻被設計精密的機關閘門所阻撓。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJI8lA2Vdg

應貝塔請求，伊咘西萊四處張望，確認沒有其他人在視線範圍內，頭上光環和背羽便從無形中現出實態。他振著翅，輕鬆繞過帶刺高牆著地，快步走到門前不假思索便按下旁邊唯一一顆碩大按鈕。鬆開手一刻，閘上鐵齒輪陣便逐一驅動，在解開深鎖的同時發出一陣刺耳警鈴聲。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5yCze8rmH7

「是誰！？」如此巨音驚動了建築物內的守衛，一個人影正從走廊後撲出之際，貝塔便拿出小刀迅速越過伊咘西萊，「嚓」一聲刀鋒刺在守衛腹部，剎那痛感使其應聲暈倒在地上。398Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeSlNS6M2JA

三人穿梭於空無一人的迴廊裡，掠過深鎖重門嘗試從中探聽阿爾法的下落，腳步止於迴廊盡頭那位於頂樓的大房間前，側旁寫著「中央實驗室」幾個大字。步伐才剛停下，門後便突如傳出爆炸般巨響，幾乎要讓眾人站不住腳。
