Chapter 114: Girl Angel
Time flies.
It was another day off, and Evan returned to Cowper Manor as promised.
This time I came back without the strangeness of being a guest, from Aunt Devri and Elantra to the butler and maid, all of whom had adapted to the new family members.
"Auntie, is the little girl I asked the coachman Hoyle to bring back last time still in the manor?"
Arriving at Cooper Manor early in the morning, Elantra was not yet over for his daily training. Aven, who accompanied his aunt Devri to take care of the newly bloomed bluebells in the garden, suddenly remembered the little girl he had saved from the "Bloody Hand Gang", and asked curiously.
"That skinny little girl named Angel?
She stayed at the manor for only one night that day, and the next day she had to leave, saying that she didn't want to trouble us, and that I was afraid that the road would not be safe, so I asked Hoyle to take her home.
He's a very sensible child. β
Devrey had a good impression of the little girl, and although the contact time was short, she was impressed.
"Anqi?" Evan patted his forehead, saving people, he didn't even know the name of the little girl until now.
"By the way, she left you a letter for us to pass on to you.
Rebecca: Is that letter still with you? Go and get it for Master Aven. β
"Yes, ma'am!"
Soon the little maid took a simple piece of paper with handwriting and handed it to Evan.
As a letter, it did seem a little shabby, but Evan didn't mind and unfolded it gently.
"Dear Brother Aven, allow me to address you like that.....
For a humble person like me, I am fortunate to have your hand.....
In my most helpless and hopeless time, it was you who re-illuminated my life.....
Finally, pray that the Goddess will always be able to bless good people like you.
Thank you, Brother Aven!
Angel. β
Although the content of the letter was very short, and there were many typos mixed in the immature strokes, the sincere feelings that filled the lines made Aiwen's heart warm.
But do good deeds without asking about the future.
With this little girl's heart, Evan felt that the reward he had received was completely sufficient.
"Brother Aven, you're here?!
Let's go, the butler just bought two high-quality war horses yesterday, I can't help it for a long time, I'm waiting to try it with you!"
At this moment, Elantra rushed into the garden, sweating profusely after training session.
Ai Wenzhen folded the "thank you letter" and put it in his pocket, and then was carried by Elantra and ran outside.
"You two, don't run far, remember to go home for dinner at noon!" only Deflrey's voice came from behind him.
"Got it, Mom!"
"Don't worry, Auntie!"
......
The size of the city at this time was not an exaggeration, and it was not too far from the manor area to the outskirts of the real "Newinn Harbour".
Limited to the degree of human development, the vegetation here is lush and dense forests, although there are no large beasts, but there is no shortage of ordinary small animals.
Whoosh β
An arrow flew by, nailing a fat gray rabbit to the ground cleanly.
A sturdy galloping horse galloped like the wind, and the shaft of the arrow and the big rabbit nailed to it were easily picked up by the knight on horseback and put into a bag on the horse's back.
The whole process is smooth and has a strange and smooth beauty.
"Brother Aven, wait for me. β
"Phewβ"
"Why is it so slow, Elantra, you still need to practice your riding skills!"
Evan pulled the reins and stopped his steed, laughing at the belated Elantra, who was dusty behind him, followed by two sturdy male servants who were also riding horses.
Elantra rolled her eyes in dissatisfaction: "If I also have extraordinary reflexes and balance, I can run so fast, you are cheating!"
"Then you'll have to train hard!How did I hear that you've driven away all your swordsmanship teachers?" As the two rode side by side on a country road, Evan brought up a new topic.
"Hey, I've made so much progress in this short period of time, it's all because of the guidance of Big Brother Aivan, and it's too hypocritical for that guy who can only talk about it to show off to others everywhere.
As a knight who doesn't know how to keep his feet on the ground, and only thinks about opportunism all day long, such a person can't be my Elantra's teacher!"
The twelve or thirteen-year-old secondary two boy, although he is a little willful, does have some truth in what he says.
"Oh, is that so? Then I'll be your swordsmanship teacher as long as I have nothing else to do while I'm studying in Newinn Harbor. β
Evan pondered for a moment, independent research doesn't have to be in the library, and moving to Cooper Manor is the same and more private, just in time to help Elantra with the next step of training.
"Really, Brother Aven, that's great!" The last time Evan's guidance in just one day made Elantra feel the progress of flying, and he couldn't ask for his promise.
"Don't be too happy, I'm very strict, if you don't meet my requirements, don't cry when you're punished. He glanced at the second junior and said lightly.
"Don't look down on people, I'm going to not shed tears even if I bleed!" Elantra cried out in disbelief.
"Really, I'll see!"
Walking and stopping, galloping from time to time, and stopping from time to time to look for prey in the woods, the group had gone far away, and the bags for the prey had gradually filled.
Elantra remembered her mother's advice to the two of them to go back at noon, and asked like the valet beside her, "Where have we been?"
"Young Master, we are now in the countryside, and the specific location should be near Mog Farm. If we were to rush back at full speed now, it would have taken half an hour. β
"Brother Aven, shall we go back?"
"Mogg Farm? Evan muttered, because he remembered that the girl he had rescued, Angel, lived in Mogg Farm.
Hearing Elantra ask, Evan subconsciously said, "Since we're here, let's go see someone first, and then go back." β
Elantra was a little curious, does Big Brother Evan have any friends in this kind of place?
Compared to the bustling metropolis of Newinn, it is a time of another.
The thatched and muddy houses, the sheepfolds, cattle pens and the houses where people live are crowded together, the strange smell permeates the whole settlement, and most of the people who come and go are unkempt and unkempt, and the image is very different from that of the citizens of "Newinn Harbor".
Seeing a group of brightly dressed people riding tall horses, the residents of this place dodged one after another, and it seemed that they had no intention of having anything to do with them.
Following Evan from the beginning to the end of the farm, Elantra asked suspiciously, "Brother Aven, where is your friend's home?"
