Chapter 10: The Adventurous Heart
Black will eventually be just a touch of night in a bright world. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The black cloak will only cover the person who is bent on the light.
Ruiz didn't take off his hood, and in the shadow of the hood, he saw Galen who opened the door, and smiled heartily: "Why, I just heard someone say that they want to sell my magic crystal for money, are you so short of money?" ”
Hearing Ruiz's words, Charles's face turned red all of a sudden, and he secretly said in his heart: It's over, Lord Ruiz didn't really want to take me away, and now he heard my words and left a bad impression, so I don't have no hope at all.
"It's Charles kidding, Lord Ryze's stuff, how dare we sell it without your permission."
Galen invited Ryez in, and said to help Charles excuse him: "Lord Rhy, please come in, that, the house is a bit messy, forgive me." ”
Ruiz nodded, casually walked into the room, and placed the old book in his hand on the table, even if he saw that the table was spilled with milk stains.
Then, Ruiz looked around, and the expression on his face did not change.
Galen chuckled as he watched Mistress Reze's things on top of the milk he had just spilled, and thought to himself, "What if I break Mistress Reze's book?"
Ruiz, who had his back to Galen, seemed to see through his inner thoughts, and said slowly, "It's out of the way." ”
Galen was taken aback, and secretly said in his heart: Lord Ruiz really knows how to read minds!
In order to save some money for Lux to go to school, the house where Galen and Lux live is not very good, the space is not large, the light is not very good, and the house looks a little dark if there are no candles during the day.
However, Galen has to move goods at the docks during the day, and Lux is often out and about, so this has little impact on them.
"Two brothers and sisters with light attributes actually live in such a dim place, but that's right, the darker the place, the more light is needed to illuminate it." Ruiz, looking at the dimly lit little house, thought.
Ruiz sat down casually, saw Lux on the side, smiled slightly, and said, "Lux? Can I call you that? I heard Galen say that you have a great talent for magic, so can you show me that now? ”
From the moment Ryze entered, Lux, the untouchable little witch in Nassou, had been nervous, playing with the sapphire crystal she was holding behind her back.
In her opinion, Ruiz, as a mage, should be a very serious person, and she never expected that Ruize would be so amiable.
Lux clenched the sapphire crystal tightly in both hands, and she felt her face heat a little, and for a moment she didn't know how to show off her magical talents.
Seeing that Lux was not at all as lively as usual, and hearing Ruiz ask her again, Galen hurriedly snatched the blue crystal from Lux's hand, and said anxiously: "Lux, just like usual, conjure that glowing white ball, quickly." ”
Ruiz listened to Galen's words, and smiled again, it seems that Galen really sees Lux's magic as a trick, no wonder it will be used for lighting, he continued: "Don't be nervous, Lux, concentrate, gather the light in your body to your palm." ”
Hearing Ruiz's words, Lux calmed down a little, only to see her take a deep breath, slowly close her eyes, hold her hands in the air, and gather strength into the palm of her hand according to Ruiz's guidance.
The white light gradually lit up in the palm of Lux's hand, like the dawn of dawn, illuminating this dim room, compared with the sharpness of the sun, the white light of Lux's palm appeared more gentle, and the milky white halo shone on everyone's face, but it was not dazzling at all, and it made people feel like a spring breeze.
"What a pure radiance!"
Ruiz looked at the white light in the palm of Lux's hand and said stupidly, "If it weren't for not feeling a trace of divine aura, I would even recognize you as the reincarnation of the God of Light." ”
"Huh? The god of light? Charles, who was on the sidelines, heard it and muttered quietly.
Galen heard this, glared at Charles fiercely, and motioned for him to remain silent.
Charles pursed his lips, glanced at Galen angrily, and stopped talking.
"Rui...... Mistress Ryze, can you take me as your apprentice? Lux, holding the ball of light, asked apprehensively.
"Oh no, Lux, would you like me to be your teacher?"
Ruiz, who came to his senses, said very solemnly: "If you are willing to let me be your magic teacher, with your magical talent, I, Ruiz, dare to guarantee in my name that you will definitely become a great magician in the famous continent in the future, I promise you!" ”
A look of joy finally appeared on Lux's face, she put away the light in her hand, straightened her clothes, and with a holy face, she bowed respectfully to Ruiz and exclaimed, "Teacher." ”
Ruiz smiled and nodded, very pleased with Lux's reaction, and he said happily, "Good, good." I, Ruiz, have been wandering all my life, and I have never accepted an apprentice, you are my first apprentice, Lux, you come here, this is a fairy amulet, and it should be my gift to your apprentice. ”
As if out of thin air, a gold-rimmed amulet encrusted with sapphire crystals appeared in Ryze's hand.
Lux took the fairy talisman from Ruize's hand, and finally regained her lively appearance, she immediately hung the fairy talisman around her neck, grabbed it in her hand and looked at it carefully for a while, and said happily, "Thank you, teacher." ”
"This fairy talisman, although it is not a high-grade magic prop, but it can help you recover your mana faster, it is very suitable for people like you who are new to magic and need to practice, and when your magic is more refined in the future, I will give you some powerful things."
Ruiz said magnificently, and then, he turned his head to look at Galen again, and asked, "Galen?" Isn't that true yesterday you said you were going to make me an attendant, without pay? ”
Galen was still immersed in the joy of the success of his apprenticeship for Lux, and when he was suddenly asked by Ruiz, he immediately said firmly: "As long as I can follow your left and right." ”
"I'm afraid I'm following your sister's left and right."
Ruiz made a joke, and then, very seriously: "Next, I have to travel all over the mainland, the danger on the way, I can't predict myself, Lux is now my apprentice, I will protect her safety, but you are different, although you are Lux's brother, but when you encounter danger, I will not take care of your safety, can you accept it?" ”
When Galen heard this, his expression was extremely solemn, he hammered his right fist on his heart, and said seriously: "No matter how dangerous it is, I will not back down, I will finally make my own beliefs, and I will never waver!" ”
"Very good, I didn't mistake you two brothers and sisters, then you pack your bags as soon as possible and set off with me."
"Yes, Lord Ryze."
"Yes, Teacher."
"That'...... What about me. Charles, who was ignored on the side, asked weakly, pointing to his nose.
Hearing Charles's words, all eyes converged on his immature face.
"If I'm not mistaken, your name is Charles, aren't you? So Charles, as you have just heard, our journey is full of dangers, or rather, we are going to take risks and risk our lives. So, I don't want to see you in any danger, you, get it. Ruiz looked at Charles and seriously refused.
"Lord Ruiz, if you talk about taking risks, among the three of us, Charles should be the one who has taken the most risks, can you take him with you?" Galen also pleaded on the side.
"Galen, you see, right now, you're just my entourage!" Ruiz stared at Galen and said sternly.
"I know that if I follow you, there will be a lot of danger, I'm just a useless little guy, I will only cause trouble for everyone."
Charles wiped his tears and cried and said: "But, I really want to go out with you guys, go out and see what the outside world is like, I want to see how majestic the imperial city of Demacia is, I want to see how magnificent the highest giant god peak in the continent is, I want to see what the place I haven't seen is like, I'm not afraid of adventures, I like to take risks, although I'm really good at getting into trouble." ”
Hearing Charles' heartfelt outpouring, Ruiz also seemed to be a little moved by Charles's spirit.
And Lux walked up to Ruiz even more cautiously, gently tugged at Ruize's cloak, looked at Ruiz with pleading eyes, and pleaded, "Teacher." ”
"Then again, we seem to be missing a butler."
Ruiz looked at Lux helplessly, and then said, "So Charles, how about it, would you like to be my personal butler?" ”
"I'll just say, one of you is a noble mage, one is a future great magician, and the other is a warrior retinue, who will take care of your daily life."
Hearing Ryze's words, Charles immediately wiped away his tears and snot, and said with a smile and a cry: "Don't worry, Lord Ryze, I will definitely be your most effective butler!" Whining...... Hehe......"
