Chapter 22: The Sword Embryo II

Even so, the number of trainees is decreasing. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoEveryone eats peacefully, completes training tasks conscientiously, and listens carefully to the lessons, but there are still people who can't keep up, and some people will suddenly run and run and fall. Sulfur and Tifa have practiced swordsmanship, and their health is not bad, and both of them are fine. But the other children were increasingly panicked, fearing that they would be left behind. All of a sudden, there were more and more cases of gangs and factions. However, the trainees' rooms were getting more and more empty, and by the time they had trained to fuse demon flesh, the two of them were the only ones left in Sulfona and Tifa's house.

Sulfona and Tifa don't usually communicate with other children. On the one hand, everyone comes from all over the world, except for the hatred of demons, there is no common topic. Sulfona is the stupidest, and she is always cold when talking to others, so she simply keeps silent. Tifa is from an aristocratic background, and he is proud of himself, and he is even more reluctant to have anything to do with others. In this way, the two of them formed a small group, which can be regarded as a kind of childhood sweetheart. When the two of them were in the town, they often practiced swords together, and now they often find a place to compete. Generally speaking, trainees are not allowed to run around in the mountains. It is said that there are wild beasts in the forest, and there are also some taboos in the mountains, and those who violate the secrets are severely punished. Fortunately, the two of them were just practicing swords in the valley, and their training results were very good, and the people above were happy to test each other.

The two of them have been practicing swords since they were children, and when they arrived at the training camp of the organization, their natural level was good. Sulfur Na accepted Simona's "lazy swordsmanship", and felt that she was infinitely powerful, and ordinary people were not her opponents at all. It's just that when he practiced swords in the small town, the person who taught Tifadu was also at a higher level than Sulfona. Sulfona didn't win against Tifa once. So after coming to Stave, Sulfona also maintained this tradition, and gave way to Tifa every time she competed. Tifa wasn't a fool, and maybe she didn't notice it once or twice, but she realized it later. This time he was caught by Tifa, and it was very embarrassing between the two of them.

"Not next time. Tifa sneered his neck and said, "I'm not afraid of losing, just win back if I lose." ”

"Good ......"

Sulfona nodded weakly, and the two girls were silent for a while. As she grew older, Sulfur was no longer as bad as she used to, so her physical strength easily caught up with Tifa. And the swordsmanship level of the two people is getting bigger and bigger. Originally, when Tifa and Sulfur got along, they had always existed as superiors. She is the daughter of a local lord, and Sulfur is just a poor peasant's child, and Tifa will make Sulfur grateful if she brings out some food. But when the two of them also interacted with each other as trainees, and Sulfona's strength was much higher than Tifa's, Tifa couldn't stand it anymore.

As the saying goes, a noble and a cheap friendship is to see, and a life of death is to know friendship. The two girls fought with demons together back then, of course, it can be regarded as a friendship of life and death. But now the two are in a reversed position and have a huge disparity in strength, and the friendship between them has been greatly tested. It is said that it is easy to live and die together, but it is difficult to be rich and rich. It's normal for the friendship of two underage children to be affected by external objects. Now the awkward atmosphere between the two of them is nothing more than a long-standing contradiction erupting. This is no longer a question of who bows his head first and who succumbs first.

"I went to practice. ”

Tifa picked up the training sword and walked away. Sulfona froze in embarrassment, not knowing what to do. The two rarely quarrel, and when they quarrel, Tifa usually loses his temper, and later Tifa will apologize and reconcile when he is angry. However, Sulfur felt that it might not be a quarrel, as Tifa didn't look particularly angry. This was a new situation that Sulfona had never encountered. She lay on the ground and watched the swifts hover in the sky, making a circular curve.

"Humans are complicated...... Sulfona muttered to the swift, "or you're simpler." ”

Swift ignored Sulfur's whispers and drew an arc and flew away. Sulfona turned over and did it, she wanted to review the cultural lesson.

The current Sulfona is already a senior trainee, and she is in the early stage of Ronghe. According to the organization, as long as you keep your body and spirit in good shape. After Tifa went to practice swordsmanship, Sulfona decided to take a culture class. The training of fighters in the Greatsword Organization is also multi-faceted. In order to be able to infiltrate various scenes at any time to complete the mission, the warrior needs to learn the necessary knowledge of the language and writing, as well as the etiquette of high society. Sulfona was completely unskilled at this kind of stuff that required memorization and memorization, and Tifa had tried to teach her several times, but failed. Sulfur could only sigh that she was not smart enough, while silently doubling her practice.

Sulfona squatted on the grass, chopped off a large piece of turf with the training sword in her hand, and then used the sword in her hand to write and draw on the turf. Of all the subjects, Thana found mathematics to be difficult to understand. Although she understands some basic arithmetic, she can't understand some more advanced columnar calculations at all. When you learn math, you can't figure it out with just your fingers. The first thing you have to do is learn a lot of words that represent a number, and then you have to remember that number represents a higher number than another number. Sulfona began to write numbers on the ground incessantly, and by the time she wrote "nium" (nine), her mind was already a mess.

Sulfona is not good at memorization, let alone math. Although the Starf Order's requirements for the fighters are only to be able to count, subtract, multiply and divide, and count the degree. But Sulfona couldn't even remember how to write the numbers. The first thing that comes to her mind when she sees the number is why it is there and why it is spelled the way it is. After thinking about it so many times, I can't remember the numbers anymore. Normally, Sulfur would ask Tifa to teach her, but the two had just fallen out, and Sulfur had to study hard by herself.

Looking at the strange letters written on the ground, Sulfur couldn't remember whether "fimf" was bigger than "saihs" or "saihs" was bigger than "fimf". Sulfona ruffled her hair and stood up suddenly, deciding not to think about these brain-bursting things anymore. When she stood up and straightened her dress, she suddenly noticed a young girl standing behind her.

"'Nium' is misspelled, it should be 'niun'. ”

The girl snorted.

The teenage girl had pale pink hair and long bangs that made her eyes hidden deep behind the bangs. She also wears a uniform similar to that of Sulfona, which means that she is also a member of the trainees. Sulfona looked at her and felt a little familiar, after all, her hair color was very conspicuous. Sulfona remembered the purple-haired girl, but couldn't name her. Usually Sulfona usually acts with Tifa, so she doesn't make much friends with the trainees of the same period.

"You...... Are you ......?"

The girl took a few steps back as if frightened, then bowed deeply to Sulfur and turned to leave. Sulfona didn't know why she left suddenly, but she knew that the girl might be mathematically better than herself.

"Wait a minute!"

Sulfona wanted to stop the girl and continue to teach her math. When the girl heard the cry behind Sulfur, she suddenly stopped, as if a nail had suddenly been fixed on the ground. Sulfona asked her to come back, and the girl walked back in order. It's not so much a well-behaved appearance as a lack of ego. Sulfona looked at her in surprise.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Doris. ”

"Ah, Doris. Sulfona read the name in her mind several times, "Are you afraid of me?"

Doris tilted her head as if confused. When she tilted her head, Doris's long, gorgeous straight hair poured down one of her shoulders like flowing water, and her bangs opened at an angle, allowing Sulfur to see the corners of Doris's bright eyes. However, Doris quickly turned her head back to her original form and hid her face.

"Do you want me to be afraid of you?"

"Ah......" Sulfura was stunned for a moment, "it's better not to be afraid." ”

"Then I'm not afraid of you. ”

Doris bowed deeply to Sulfona, a look that was too respectful to look like an attitude toward her contemporaries. Feeling a little awkward, she grabbed her short hair.

"Do you know me?"

"You're Mistress Sulfona. Doris nodded.

"You know me, but I don't know you, it's a bit ......"

"No, it's my right to know you. You don't know me, and rightfully so. Doris shook her head and said, "If an inferior creature like me were to be known to you, I am afraid that it would affect your observation." On the other hand, if I don't know you, if I don't know when I accidentally offended you, I'm afraid I won't be able to eat and walk around. I have to keep track of all the strong men in order to survive. ”

Sulfona couldn't help but be surprised when she heard Doris's self-humble and somewhat masochistic words. Usually the people she sees are either simple peasant kids, arrogant people like Tifa, or people with an almost paranoid hatred of demons. It's the first time she's met someone like Doris, and she thinks Doris's idea is incorrect.

Everyone deserves to live with dignity.

"No, right...... Aren't all trainees' companions? Even if it's an offense, a fight is over. So what are the strong and the weak......"

"Because you are strong, Lord Sulfona, you can say that. Doris sighed slightly, "You're not weak, so you don't know about our lives. Among the trainees, many weak people should disappear because they can't bear the training or have a psychological breakdown. Some said they were sent to do other jobs, but many died of vomiting blood during training. I would have died, but because I learned some tricks and relied on the help of the strong, I was able to be led to survive. ”

"Is it so cruel?"

"Sultana-sama and Tifa-sama are truly powerhouses, of course they think so. The two of you are like twin stars hovering in the sky...... It's like the twin goddesses of Gunia and Denissa. Whatever training you do, it's easy to do it. We're all going to vomit blood from exhaustion, and when we see the relaxed appearance of the two of you, we will feel that you and we are not from the same world. And the swordsmanship of both of them is very superb, just now I also wanted to see your swordsmanship, so I carefully snooped on the side, so I accidentally offended you......"
