"Let them go," Ian said with a shrug, sighing, "I just can't go back to the village and work as a blacksmith for you, and I haven't been able to contribute to the reconstruction of the village since that attack." ”

"It's okay, Elder Madelen has made good arrangements since he succeeded the village head," Elise said busily, "Everyone so you don't have to worry about it!" After a pause, she added, "But Granny Su Mu misses you a lot......"

"That'...... Looking for a chance, I slipped back to see her. ”

"Don't, don't, my mother-in-law told you again and again not to go back. ”

"Okay, you know, don't worry!" Seeing Ian's easy promise, it only made Elise even more worried.

It wasn't long before they were back in the big tree hole. The pudgy witch tended her herb garden, and Elise greeted her with a smile.

"Thank you, Shrine Maiden!" Elise whispered to the witch as she approached, "Ian is in much better condition than he used to be. ”

"I didn't do anything, little girl," the witch said, looking at her surroundings with a pretended expression, "it's the power of nature...... Oh yes!"

The witch remembered something, and turned to Ian and shouted:

"Ian, boy, come here!"

Ian and Sid both walked over, and Ian asked, "What's wrong?"

"I've forbidden you to use your psychic powers for months, have I?" asked the witch.

"yes, you said I'm overdrawn and can't fight with a sword, so there's no point in embodying Zack and them......" Ian repeated what the witch had nagged about.

"Sid," the witch interrupted and turned to Sid, what do you think of his swordsmanship now?"

"It's far from me!" Sid gave a thumbs up, then immediately made a downward stroke.

"Then Bibi, it just so happens that the winner hasn't been decided today!" Ian wiped the sweat from his head lightly, and was about to touch the sword.

"Yes, yes!" Sid looked interested.

"Ian has really changed a lot......" Elise looked at Ian's reluctance to admit defeat, and couldn't help but think of his caution when he first came to Breeze Village. Cheng Tian looked cautious and submissive, and compared to this time, it was like two people. Was it Sid's training that changed him, or was it the power of nature, as the witch said? Elise looked at them with a smile.

"It's annoying!" the witch roared, and the two of them fell silent at once.

"What the hell is going on with him?" the witch asked Sid again.

"Okay...... At least you can play with me. Sid reluctantly gave two fair comments, "But the actual combat experience is still too little." Originally, Ian wanted to refute Sid's words, but when he mentioned his actual combat experience, he stopped talking. It's a truth, and Ian can clearly feel the gap in experience when he fights Sid, and it can't be made up for by practicing hard or keeping an eye on him when he fights.

"Hmm...... Uh-huh......" The witch seemed to be pondering something, hesitating and not making up her mind.

Just when Sid could not bear to ask, the witch spoke:

"Ian, call that Zach or something, whichever one, come out and see. ”

"Okay!" Ian's eyes lit up and he became excited.

It's been a long time since I've used my psychic powers, and although I know that Zack is a spirit, it's exactly the same as a real person after all, and I miss it a little.

Ian turned his head to look at the clearing around him, and Zach was embodied as his spiritual power gathered.

At this time, Zach was dressed like a swordsman. He had a standard longsword hanging from his waist, not much different from the military-standard longsword that Ian used. The blacksmith's turban, which was originally worn on his head, was now worn around his neck as a scarf, and leather gloves, leather boots, and a travel belt with two or three storage bags were worn by a swordsman traveler.

"You're going to spy on a passing swordsman again......" Sid looked helpless. Although he doesn't know how to use psychics, he already knows a rough idea of Ian's embodiment principle. Without careful observation, how could this outfit be so meticulously embodied.

Ian smiled, noncommittal.

"Come on, try two tricks. The witch pointed to Sid.

"Okay!" Ian deserved to hurry.

"What's good!" Sid dodged behind a big rock in the doorway, "Who wants to fight the spirits!I heard that the sword skills sent out by the spirit power can fly around!" This guy has such poor kung fu in his hands, he can't control the strength well, who killed me by mistake?"

"Sword skills can still fly out?" Seeing that Sid said seriously, Ian looked at the witch suspiciously.

"He didn't know about it yet, so he definitely couldn't use such a trick, and it's dangerous for you to let him know now......" The witch muttered helplessly, "Ian, when you fight Sid, absolutely, absolutely, don't think about it!"

"Good...... But the more you say that, the easier it is for me to think that way......"

Sid shouted, "Old witch, why don't you fight him yourself, don't you also have the power of your mind!"

"Tsk, no wonder you don't have a woman to start a family with you at such an age...... The witch shook her head ...... look of grief.

"You're only old!" Sid's focus was different from the average person's.

"Sid, come on, I'll make sure to keep the power under control. Ian laughed.

"Hey, the devil will believe you. But as he said that, the man came out from behind the stones.

His two hands went up and down, barely holding the hilt that wasn't long enough, and he used the one-handed longsword as a two-handed sword - Sid was actually used to using a two-handed greatsword, and after discovering the signal for the monster to attack Light Wind Village, he only brought his sword with him in a hurry.

He took a stance and shook the tip of his sword at Zack's spirit, "Come on!"

Ian stood still, but Zach pulled the same spirit sword from his waist. He stood up straight, half-sideways, his blade leaning slightly forward towards Sid, in a confrontational stance.

"Begin, begin!" cried the witch. As soon as the second "start" was spoken, Zach burst into Sid out of thin air, and the speed was so fast that Sid was startled. No matter how fast a normal person is, there will be a process of accumulating power, such as leaning back and then moving forward with the force of his feet, but Zack's charging action is so fast that it is almost invisible, as if flying out of thin air.

Sid was startled, hurriedly flipped his wrist, and slashed the sword slightly sideways, facing Zack's oblique slash with momentum. The spirit's sword slammed into Sid's steel sword, and it sparked like metal blades hitting each other, making a "bell" sound.

Both of them took a step back at the same time. Sid took advantage of the strength of the rebound of the sword blade, and raised the long sword high, preparing to swing a heavy slash from top to bottom. Zack, as Ian's mental strength, keenly sensed the moment when Sid's hands were raised high and suddenly clenched the hilt of the sword, and discovered his attack intent in advance.

Although not as strong as Sid, Zach is much lighter. When a semi-arc of silver light remained in the air, and Sid's heavy slash fell, Zack took a sharp turn and swung his sword diagonally down Sid's sword, while his body turned briskly to the right. With the rotation of his body, the blade shook Sid's top-down slash away—another "bell".

Before the afterglow of the voice was gone, Zach had already stood still, and immediately pointed the tip of his sword at Sid's left shoulder, and the whole person was pushed up again.

Sid's longsword was swung away, and he didn't have time to retreat to the defense, and when he was about to hit the sword, Zach stopped.

With a smug smile on his face, Ian said to Sid, "Zack who has learned swordsmanship is really much better!

Sid gasped twice and said angrily, "Psychic power is simply cheating, you can't do it yourself." ”

"A human body can't withstand such a load," the old witch sneered, "but not to mention such a limit load, it would be nice for Ian to swing a sword." If you don't believe it, let him go with the spirit this time. ”

Sid's eyes widened: "I'm enough to deal with him with a spirit, and you still let them go together?"

"Try it, try it and have a lot of meat for you. The old witch laughed, "Maybe it's your chance to turn it over!"

Sid shook his head, knowing that the witch had something to say, and there must be a reason for her. I didn't bother to guess, I regained my spirits and clenched my two-handed sword.

Ian pulled out the long sword at his waist, but his face was very hesitant.

He found the feeling strange and awkward. If he had been allowed to fight Sid alone, he would have been familiar with it, and if he had only had Zack to fight, as he had just done, he would have easily instilled his swordsmanship experience in Zack with even better results than if he had used it himself. But now while letting Zach fight, he also has to draw his sword to meet the enemy......

He has a sense of dissonance in drawing circles with his left hand and squares with his right hand. Drawing squares and circles was an extremely simple action, and what he was doing now was countless times more complicated than that.

"You're welcome, come quickly!" called Sid a few steps away.

"Ian, come on!" Elise couldn't help but shout as well.

Ian had no choice but to bite the bullet and raise his sword and take a stance ready to fight.

But as soon as he started the preparatory action, Sid and Elise were stunned-

Zach was like Ian's shadow, standing beside him, doing exactly the same thing as him.

Ian made a defensive position in front of him, and Zach also took the same pose at the same time, and Ian moved forward with the tip of his sword and attacked, and Zack also struck at the same time. The spirits and Ian, as if they had been rehearsed, shouted commands that no one could hear, and their movements were in unison.

Ian himself felt weird and embarrassed, "Wait a minute. He called a timeout.

Of course, he had already noticed this sense of disobedience, but every time he took it for granted, he didn't want to investigate it deeply. In the battle of Light Wind Village, you can only manipulate one spirit at a time, and the spirit is almost immobile when you fight.

He already had a vague idea of the witch's intention for him to use spirits and Sidby's sword.

He forced himself to imagine Zack's sword swing in his mind, and at the same time he slowly made movements, but either his hands were sluggish, or Zack stopped moving, and he couldn't handle it well.

Ian was inexplicably annoyed, shouted "Come on", and simply strode forward to attack. Sid swung his sword and parried, ready to withstand the flanking blows of Ian and Zach, but the attack didn't come. There was a "bell" and the blades collided, but nothing happened to Sid - Zach and Ian's swords collided before they touched Sid's sword...... The three of them were stunned at the same time, and the scene was strange.
