Chapter 72: Remorse

Although a few days have passed, the Dias are still immersed in the excitement of killing a formidable opponent. Now several children, accompanied by samurai, have moved away from the swamp.

From that day on, Bran began to distance himself from his cousin. Keeping a safe distance from them at all times, he has not yet come out of the shadows of being almost killed by his own people.

Bran is not afraid of death, and he is brave in the face of danger. But this kind of black hand from relatives and friends completely frightened him. He felt that it was better to be alone, and it was safer to be alone. Therefore, he has not taken care of his cousins in the past few days.

Bran was now happily laughing with Dany, talking about his experiences, his progress. Although he knew that Dani had been following him and should have known most of his experience, he just couldn't help but want to share it with Dani. And Dani smiled quietly as before, listening to him brag and listen to him say something inexplicable.

Dani explained something to Bran. The bug lives deep in swamps, generally does not appear at the edges of swamps, and rarely actively attacks humans. Bran was still on the edge of the area, which was considered a safe area, so they were a little careless. The vegetation of the swamp obscured the view of the snow falcons in the air until they heard Bran's whistling.

She had informed her of the incident back to the castle, and other samurai would come over and go deep into the swamp to find out what was going on.

......

Unlike Dani, the warriors of the Northlands were not the squires of these children. In the Northlands, there aren't many minors who have access to squires, so it's a bit surprising to learn that Danny is Bran's squire. And as an acolyte, Dani seems to be a little too close to Bran.

My cousin and the bear children have begun to feel indignant at Bran's ignorance these days. They all apologized, but Bran didn't pay any attention to them except to say that it was okay. And after Bran showed considerable strength, they thought it was Bran's contempt for them. And after the previous encounter, Bran's various performances were understood as a kind of disdain.

Several bear children began to provoke Bran intentionally or unintentionally, but Bran just smiled and ignored him. It wasn't until they began to be disrespectful to Dani that Bran was annoyed, and the relationship between the two sides deteriorated instantly, and this change began to affect several samurai in the West.

Until one evening, Bran sat by the campfire in a dazeβ€”habitually perceiving the microcosm with his magical powers. A young warrior in the West, shouting an idiot at Bran over a campfire. Before he could finish speaking, Bran bounced off the ground, punched the bridge of his nose, and then fell back to his place and sat down.

The adult Northland people are indeed physically strong, although the nosebleeds that were smashed were direct, but only some nosebleeds. Neither broke the bridge of his nose nor knocked him unconscious, but Bran was too fast for the young warrior to dodge at all. In fact, after a crisp sound, his nose bleed, and nothing else. It was enough to hit his self-esteem hard, and he was punched in the nose by a 10-year-old.

Except for a sneer from Dani that night, no one else spoke.

......

Early in the morning, Bran and Dani went hunting.

Dia leaned over to the young man who had been punched last night and asked, "Brother An, why didn't you make a sound last night?"

"You've been miserable. You asked me to help provoke your cousin, only to tell me false news. ”

"What's the fake news? He's such an idiot, everyone in the castle knows it. Dia was a little unconvinced.

"Don't tease your cousin again. After getting punched yesterday, I got it. If you think about it, did you take advantage of your cousin in the castle when you were a child? Don't worry, think clearly before answering. ”

"When you remind you like this, it seems that you really haven't taken advantage of it. Obviously, there was no one else around, and after the bullying, I was inexplicably discovered, and then I was beaten up by my parents. Brother An, how did you guess?"

"There are no fools who take this kind of attack lightly and quickly, and fools can't take this kind of road. ”

"Brother An, that can't be in vain. ”

"It's not wronged, at that distance, even if you were on guard at that time, it was between the two. Unless it's all about it, I can't really avoid that. ”

"No, I don't think he's fast, I can see it clearly. ”

"He didn't have any extra movements at that moment, you feel simple, you can see it clearly, you can imitate it?"

Diabi gestured, "Really." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, you've been sitting cross-legged since you saw him, right?"

"What's wrong? ”

"He went from bounce to sit back yesterday without any obvious build-up or pre-movement before getting up. That is, even when he is resting, he remains vigilant and can burst out and hurt people at any time. Think about the few days you have been together, have there been some anomalies, who is on guard at night, who is aware of the danger in advance, and whether you sleep well?"

Dia suddenly realized, "You reminded me that most of them slept well." The white wolf also does not give warnings easily, and often listens to him and the black cat's commands. ”

"Because some small dangers have been dealt with by him in advance. Don't mess with him again, he may be really scared of you, scared by you. ”

"How come? We killed the bug with all our might, and we delivered the final fatal blow. ”

"He'll let you run, don't get in the way. Didn't you listen? I'm afraid his idea is to delay for a while, and when you run farther away, he will find another chance to run. ”

"We are also here to help him, and we don't know the hearts of good people!"

"With the stamina, reflexes and speed he showed, although he couldn't beat it, it shouldn't be difficult to shake off that bug. I was dragged down by you and wanted to run, but I couldn't run fast, and I couldn't leave you. Later, he was dragged by you and stumbled.

The last fatal five spears, we all happened to see. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been stabbed to death by you. After that, I didn't get up for half a day, not because of too much physical exertion, but because I was scared by you. ”

Speaking of this, the surrounding samurai all laughed.

Dia was a little unconvinced, "But ......"

"Don't be, he's facing away from you when the spear flies over, think about how he dodged it. If we were samurai, we wouldn't have done better in that situation. ”

"Brother An, his attendants laughed at you last night. ”

"Not to laugh at me, that voice was made by all the samurai on our side. ”

"Then why didn't you react?"

"You have some respect for her, even though she's only 18 or 9 years old, but no one on our side can beat her. ”

Dia was very unconvinced, "I didn't do anything, why can't I beat it?"

"Momentum. After sneering yesterday, her momentum overpowered all the samurai on our side. And you five children were sitting in the middle of us at the time, and they were not affected in any way. We didn't react last night, not because we didn't want to, but because we fell into disadvantage in the confrontation. So, you have to at least have due respect for her, for a strong person. ”

Dia regretted a little, "Why didn't you remind me earlier?" No wonder, Bran was annoyed when she stabbed Dani a few days ago. What can I do?"

"It's okay, she doesn't care. ”

"Ah......h Not to Bran, but to Dani. In particular, Dani, as a woman, has suppressed many samurai with her momentum alone. This made several little girls begin to admire Dani.

......

The samurai of the castle all demonstrated their martial arts in front of him and Dani under the guise of making weapons in Bran. After observing and studying during that period, and after later training, Dani has now reached the level of the top samurai in the Northland. This was something that Bran hadn't expected, and Dani had never mentioned it to him.

Even under the great terror of life and death, Bran's magic net and spirit were integrated, and his perception had gradually become subtle, and he could clearly grasp the movements within a few meters around him, and he didn't realize that Dani directly suppressed the Western Warrior with his momentum last night.

......

Under the reminder of the warriors of the West, the attitude of several children towards Dani has changed drastically, especially the four little girls. It's a bit confusing to Bran, but it's not a bad thing, and Bran is happy to see it.
