Volume 1 The Siege of the Empire Chapter 111 Lake Light

Although Liz was very fond of her mother and Helen, Charles did not leave Jim at home for dinner that night.

He won't stay long when he goes home this time, and he still hopes to have a good meal at home with his mother.

After dinner, Charles told Anna what had happened during this time.

What did you lift the roof of the bathhouse, fill the walls with horse manure, and steal the captain's supper......

Hearing that he was still mischievous as a child, Anna smiled rarely.

Gradually talking about the family's ironware shop, Charles knew that his mother had never liked to ask about these things, so he sharpened his pen and said that this time Jim came back, which was to arrange for him to take care of the shop and reassure his mother.

Anna knew that Charles had already made up her mind, so she didn't bother anymore.

Turning to talk about Leila, Anna only said that Leila's branch in the West Market had a good business, and the crescent lion man called her a teacher, and she didn't lose face much, and she has been in a good mood recently.

Charles was relieved.

Before I knew it, it was getting late, and after sending Charles back to his room to rest, Helen returned to the hall, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared, replaced by a solemn look:

"Miss, the rumors are true, I can't sense the little master's battle gang. ”

In fact, seeing Helen's gloomy face when she came back, Anna had already guessed eight or nine points.

It is rumored that the current young eagle was shattered by Zhan Gang, and there is no hope for a lifelong general, and he has practiced magic many times and caused a coma, which has hurt the foundation of spiritual power, and his future is bleak.

Although Anna stayed at home, these gossips still couldn't stop drilling into the ears of the master and servant.

Picturesque eyebrows fluttered slightly, Anna looked up at the bright moon hiding in the clouds outside the window, and sighed leisurely: "It seems that the rumors about his spiritual power are also true......"

Helen couldn't see Anna's sad appearance the most, and immediately blamed herself again and again: "It's all my fault, it's me who didn't protect the little master, if I ...... at that time"

"As I said, I don't blame you for what happened back then, but now that he has regained his talent, you don't have to blame yourself for that incident anymore. ”

"But Miss ......" Helen was about to say something, but Anna interrupted her by raising her hand.

"I also planned to let him be an ordinary person for the rest of his life, but now this is just right, a little ability, a big backer, in these small three counties, it is enough for him to live happily. ”

Helen knew that Anna had always hoped that Charles could stay away from some disputes and live a peaceful and happy life, but when she saw Charles's look today, the more she looked at it, the more she felt that she seemed to have seen it somewhere:

"Miss, do you feel that the little master is becoming more and more like a person?"

"Huh, like whom?"

"Your father. ”

——————————

Charles stayed at home for a few days, and every day, in addition to spending time with his mother, was a matter of the shop.

When it comes to running the store, Charles is still a little worried about Jim's ability at first.

But they didn't expect that the couple made a living by hunting in their early years, and they had experience in setting up stalls and selling goods in the outer city.

Taking care of the store is surprisingly handy.

This time when they went to the chamber of commerce that introduced the hired workers, the couple quickly found a master of iron, and his skills were not outstanding, but he was finally passable.

Seeing that the ironsmith shop looked good, Charles finally let go of this matter and restarted the idea of auctioning the magic weapon.

Although forging the concentric sword almost overturned, it made him and Mebis really tired of some experience of engraving the seal.

It's just that he already understands how many steel elements he can engrave on his own.

He has already thought about the weapons he made this time.

The sword, considered the nobleman of weapons, is the most elegant weapon.

Among the nobles of the Alton Royal City, although Wu Xiu is good at a variety of martial arts because of the location of the crystal, as long as he uses weapons, at least seven out of ten are with swords.

But if it is just an ordinary long sword, even if it is engraved with a mark, it does not have the tenacity and sharpness of the concentric sword level, then it cannot be called a divine weapon.

If Charles had any impression of a sword, it was probably the sword used by Azek, after all, he watched him use it several times.

In this way, based on the heirloom sword of Azek, Charles quickly forged a longsword that was more than ten times heavier than an ordinary longsword.

Although this long sword is not as laborious as the concentric sword, it is also his ingenuity.

Contrary to the concentric sword, this sword has a thick and solid core, a slender sword body and extremely sharp double blades, and the center of gravity is also concentrated in the position where the wrist can exert strength, which is also a sharp weapon with both dexterity and tenacity.

Before leaving, Ilman arrived as promised and went to Charles's home to see him off.

Of course, the send-off was fake, and there was an excuse to send the sword to Yillman to bring back, which was the purpose of Charles's invitation to come.

The sword Charles took out was brand new, and it didn't look like it had been built for a long time.

When Yilman saw it in his eyes, he immediately remembered Charles's extremely weak appearance when the concentric sword was cast the day before yesterday, and couldn't help frowning worriedly:

"Are you short of money? Do you want me to lend you some?"

"No, if you can really borrow it, lend me two or three thousand gold first, and you don't have to pay it back. ”

Looking at Charles's heartless appearance, Yilman sighed helplessly and persuaded: "I know you don't want to give up your family sword-forging skills, but I see that your sword-forging costs are huge, so let's do less in the future." ”

Although he does not practice magic, he also understands that the exhaustion of mental power is almost self-destructive for magicians.

"Actually, it's okay, I know how to measure. Charles said nonchalantly, and simply handed the sword to Ihlman.

The long sword was slightly heavy, and Yilman weighed it, although it was not as good as the concentric sword, but the die-casting treatment at the hilt of the sword also made it meet the requirements of most swordsmen for control, and the sword body was slender and tough, and the sharp qi gushed out along the blade, stabbing his eyes painfully.

I have to say that even if it is not a law-breaking divine weapon, this is a rare good sword.

couldn't help but shake the sword flower, and Yilman praised: "It's really a good sword, did you name him?"

"Not really, what types of names do nobles of your rank like?, do you have any references?" Charles touched his chin in thought.

The name Yilman may not have much talent, but he still has some knowledge: "In terms of elegance, in the royal city, the swan family dares to say second, no one dares to say first, my cousin's sandalwood, although it is not a law-breaking weapon, but it is also a sought-after elegant weapon among nobles." ”

"Sandalwood, Sandalwood...... You're too far behind your cousin, aren't you?" Charles, as he savored the name, felt more and more that Yilman's ability to choose the name was really a mess.

Yirman's face was slightly red, and he argued: "The concentric sword is very good, vulgarity is elegance, do you understand?"

He didn't care about Yilman's stubborn resistance to Charles, he didn't have the consciousness to name the weapon at all, otherwise the silver sledgehammer in his hand would have been named a long time ago.

He is right, vulgarity is elegance, worthy of authentic aristocracy. Mebis's voice sounded faintly, and he seemed to be interested in naming it.

"It's just in time, so tell me, what's it called?" Charles asked in his mind when he saw Mebis take the bait.

"Lake light. ”

Charles's face was not red and his heart was not beating, and he naturally said the name that Mebis came up with, and he also brought an impromptu performance.

"Lake light... Lake Light..."

As he read the name of this elegant and common atmosphere, his eyes were a little misty, as if he had seen a soft lake as dust-free as a mirror through a cold light on the sword.

When he came back to his senses, he didn't even look at Charles differently.

"What a good name, as long as the auction house is slightly packed, this lake light will definitely become the object of competition among the nobles. ”

Charles nodded as a matter of course and said, "The most important thing is that no one will associate it with the name of the Concentric Sword. ”

Hearing this, Ilman's face darkened, and he put the sword into the scabbard he had prepared temporarily, pinned it to his waist, and said frankly: "In fact, the four words of the Light Breaking Magic Weapon are enough to cause a sensation in the entire Arton. ”

Seeing that Charles was puzzled, he then explained: "After the siege of the three counties, there are not many real law-breaking magic soldiers, there are only a few in total, which one is in whose house, it is an open secret in the aristocratic circle. Now that it's suddenly popping up again, do you think it's a sensation?"

The materials of the Spellbreaker Divine Weapon are rare, and before the siege of the beast tide, it was rarely seen in the auction hall of the Empire, let alone now.

It was through this analysis that Charles realized how much risk Captain Sainz had taken for him.

Once these old families are tracked down, Captain Sainz may not be able to parry it.

Thinking of this, Charles patted Yilman on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I'll sell one or two, the head of the group can help, I can't help it, I still have the support of the teacher." ”

After saying goodbye to his mother and leaving the city gate with Ilman, Charles set out on his journey to the southern military camp alone.

According to Ogu's letter of introduction, today there will be a squad from the Southern Military Region waiting for him at the fork in the road in front of the drinking slope, and the horses have been prepared for him, and his military career will begin with the most basic long-distance march.

He packed his bags and put them at the bridgehead outpost, got out of the carriage, picked them up along the way, and walked all the way south.

He had walked this path a few times, and he was familiar with it, and he remembered all the things in front of the drinking slope before he went up the mountain for the first time, as if it was in front of him yesterday.

The tree-lined fork here is only three or five miles away from the Qiaotou outpost, and three months ago, it was still full of golden trees.

At this time, the branches are already full of snow-white.

At this moment, a slender figure appeared at the fork in the road ahead.

The long blond hair reflected the winter sun, which made Charles a little sore in the eyes.

Wait, that kid seems to be ......

Fiona's sister's son?
