Chapter 10: Parting

"Bump!"

A large black shadow slammed into the grass, causing dust and blades of grass to scatter in all directions.

Killing the leopard-like beast with a single palm, Anthony breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Arina.

Not far from him, the girl giggled and moved briskly. The staff in her hand flicked from time to time, and a burst of magic shot out, landing on the huge boar that had been following her closely.

For a few days, Arlina is probably tired of playing. Or maybe it was because she saw Anthony's diligent and unremitting efforts to cultivate, and she was influenced and inspired, and today she also started her own magic cultivation in earnest.

The strength of these low-level demonic beasts is too weak, and they are not qualified to be her sparring partners. Still, Alina Bingxue is clever enough to find a way to exercise her magical control.

This is a huge wild boar, which is already her fifth sparring opponent, and it can also be said to be an experiment.

The magic used by Arlina hit the boar intensively, but did not cause direct damage to it. This is because Arlina uses field control magic such as slowdown, acceleration, and gravity manipulation. The boar, whose eyes were on fire and its nostrils were smoking, chased after her, smashing the abominable man to pieces.

Unfortunately, when running, it is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and when the four hooves are on the ground, it is sometimes light and sometimes heavy. Especially when cornering, the sudden acceleration that is not under its control has already caused it to crash into the thick trees several times. Fortunately, it has thick skin and thick flesh, and there is no injury.

Anthony watched as Arina teased the boar through the woods, and admired it in his heart.

In order to find and solve the problem that he could not practice magic, he paid more attention to and read introductory magic books than ordinary magicians. He knew very well how difficult it was to cast a spell as dense and compact and with just the right amount of speed.

And this beautiful girl, like herself, is only 16 years old.

"Not good!" Suddenly, Anthony's face changed color. I didn't have time to think about it, I kicked hard with both feet, and the whole person threw forward.

There was a loud bang, just like Anthony's palm just now, which flew like a leopard's demonic beast, and this time it was his turn to be hit by a big wild boar and fall heavily on the trunk of an old tree.

Delayed by Anthony, the middle-aged man has also arrived. In a flash of the sword, the big wild boar had been dismantled and scattered on the ground.

What's even more terrifying is that forced by the powerful sword momentum of the middle-aged man, not only was the momentum of the big wild boar completely blocked, but not even a drop of blood could come out.

Anthony has always felt that there is nothing wrong with this, this middle-aged man is indeed an unfathomable master.

Arina didn't have the heart to admire the middle-aged man's swordsmanship, she hurried to Anthony's side and carefully turned him over. Worried, he asked, "Anthony, what's wrong with you, are you seriously injured?" ”

The middle-aged man walked over and said to Arina: "That big wild boar may have been mad by you, and suddenly advanced under strong stimulation, and its strength and speed increased greatly, so it had an accident." That's not something wrong with your magic. ”

Arlina gave him a blank look and said, "Why are you talking about this now?" Hurry up and get your best medicine out. ”

The middle-aged man's face remained unchanged, but there was a hint of a smile in the corner of his eyes: "However, this young man doesn't seem to need to be medicated." ”

Anthony coughed at the right time, sat up with his chest on his shoulder, gasped and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine." I was a little out of breath when I was hit by it just now, but now it's fine. ”

Arlina looked him up and down, and saw that his face was as usual, and he spoke with a lot of energy, not at all as if he was seriously injured. I couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

That big boar was just an ordinary beast, and it hadn't been able to advance to a demonic beast yet. But its sheer size, and the astonishing vibration it struck against a tree, illustrated how powerful it was. What's more, it had just been officially promoted to a demonic beast, and its strength had increased exponentially, and it was instantly free from the shackles of its own magic. Being hit head-on by it, not to mention the black iron fighter, even the bronze fighter can't withstand it.

Only Anthony, who was at the beginning of the Black Iron Rank, collided with it unprepared in a hurry, and was actually just knocked out and flew out, leaving no minor injuries?

How is this possible!

No matter how hard he couldn't believe it, Anthony had already held on to the trunk of the tree, slowly stood up, and moved his body slightly.

Anthony was also surprised, this second skill is really not blown, and the defense is a mess.

Seeing that he was really not injured, Arlina furrowed two good-looking eyebrows and said with a little reproach, "Why are you so stupid to resist the impact of the big boar with your back." If I had replaced other Black Iron Fighters, my internal organs would have been shattered a long time ago. ”

Anthony waved his hand and said disapprehantly, "I'm thick-skinned, I'm fine." Besides, I am a man, a fighter; You are a woman, Mage. Either way, I should be ahead of you. ”

Looking at his sunny smile and delicate face with a little grass clippings and mud, Arina was suddenly a little moved. For this feeling of being protected.

It would be nice if there was a man who could help her carry all the pressure and shelter her from the wind and rain......

It's a pity that the entire empire can't find such a person.

Not even His Majesty the King of the Glorious Empire.

"Let's go!" Anthony couldn't resist Yalina's gentle and misty gaze, and was the first to break the silence.

As soon as he took two steps, Anthony turned around to see that Arina and the middle-aged man were standing still. I couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" ”

Arina said, "We're leaving." ”

Anthony was even more strange: "Let's go, then." ”

"I mean, I'm leaving here, out of Hengling City."

"Oh, you're leaving." Anthony said a little dazedly, with a hint of reluctance brewing in his heart.

Arina stepped forward, took off the spatial ring in her hand, and placed it in Anthony's hand: "I live in the imperial capital, you remember to come to me." This spatial ring is a token, and with it you can find me. Don't lose it, or the next time we meet, don't blame me for being unkind to you. ”

Anthony did not refuse, he held the ring tightly in his hand. I opened my mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end I only said two words: "Take care!" ”

Then he turned around and strode away.

He knew that the identity of the girl was not trivial. However, he did not feel any pressure. Because he firmly believes that no matter what her identity is, it cannot pose any obstacle to the relationship between the two.

Seeing Anthony's figure disappear into the dense bushes, the middle-aged man turned to Arina and said, "Your Highness, we should go back." ”

"Uncle Caton, you should have been able to get rid of that big boar in time, why did you deliberately pause and let it knock Anthony into the air? Just to explore the secrets of his mentorship and martial arts? ”

If Anthony were here, he would be surprised to find that Yalina, who is lively and cheerful and like the sister next door, has completely changed her temperament at this moment. She became a high-spirited and sacrosanct saint, and a majestic queen.

The middle-aged man named Caton bowed slightly and said, "Yes, Your Highness." ”

Arlina furrowed her beautiful eyebrows, sighed lightly, and carefully considered her words, "Uncle Caton, since the death of the queen mother, you have been the person I trust the most. I don't want to blame you for anything, I just hope that you can be kind to him and to him in the future. You know, I don't have many friends in the first place. ”

Hearing Arlina mention her mother, Caton's face had a complicated look. Without more words, he bowed again and replied, "I see." ”

Arlina turned around and walked towards the outside of Hengling: "Let's go, I've been out for a few days, and I've had enough of my thoughts." If you don't go back, I don't know what kind of mess will happen again. ”
