Merlin's office.

The handsome Professor Shota is holding a mirror in his hand and examining his face.

"Hey, it really hurts, Alice's girl doesn't know how to do it."

Looking at his right eye, which had turned blue and purple, Merlin complained in his heart as he endured the pain.

"But one thing to say, even if my eyes are colored, I'm still so handsome."

Looking at the new shape of the handsome personality in the mirror, Merlin nodded in satisfaction, and then put away the mirror.

The scar on his right eye was just left by Alice's little Lori in the morning, because this morning the head maid finally felt that the swordsmanship of the two of them was barely a beginner, so he arranged for the two of them to have the first swordsmanship competition.

And then....... Then there was Merlin's shameful defeat, even if Alice on the other side collected most of her strength in time, and finally even lost her sword, but because it was too late to stop, she finally smashed a fist on Merlin's face, leaving him with such an "eye personality dress".

This frightened little Lori's little face turned pale, and she was about to cry, this little guy almost didn't pick up the sword on the ground on the spot to apologize for his death, but fortunately, Merlin finally stopped Alice in time, and some Asasi's comfort finally made Little Lori feel at ease.

This is also something that can't be helped, in Alice's eyes, Mr. Merlin is the most powerful and powerful person in the world, so powerful that even the gods enshrined in the temple are not as good as Mr. Merlin, and the little guy doesn't feel that he has the ability to hurt Mr. Merlin at all, so she used to do her best as soon as she shot before, and she wanted to show Mr. Merlin the results of her efforts during this time.

However, little Lori never imagined that Mr. Merlin would be so weak.

As a result, Merlin now really experienced first-hand how powerful Alice's martial arts talent was and how hard she had been practicing during this time.

Alas, don't look at Alice's little pink fist is really cute, and that little fist is really painful to hammer people.

It's really embarrassing to say, in front of Alice, Merlin only held up three swords.

In the face of Little Lori's first sword, Merlin was still confident in using the unloading technique of the chain sword swordsmanship specifically for heavy weapons such as giant swords, so that the pit viper sword turned into the staff of the snake rotated around Alice's giant sword, and his mind was full of what to overcome rigidity with softness and use force to fight with force.

Then he was ruthlessly slapped in the face, and he deeply understood what it meant to drop ten times with one force, and he was numb on the spot by the brute force contained in Alice's sword.

Then before he could react, he was hit by a cross slash by little Lori, and the defense was completely broken, and then Little Lori smoothly made up an unpretentious front thrust that made Merlin hit GG on the spot.

Of course, because Cynthia had put a spell on the weapons of the two before the competition, such as "you can't kill, at most you will only get slightly injured", so in fact, it is not surprising that Alice did not abandon the sword in the end.

Of course, the body is sure not to be seriously injured, but the mind.....

Merlin almost burst into tears on the spot.

Although he had long thought that he might lose in the sword duel when he saw Alice's brute strength, in his imagination, he should lose after three or four hundred moves, instead of being given a set of seconds on the spot.

As a traverser, an adult, he was hammered by a ten-year-old little Lori so powerless, this is really a shame, if there was a crack in the ground on the training ground at that time, he would definitely hide in it and have no face to see people.

Although if Merlin had borrowed the power of the snake at that time, he would definitely have been able to defeat Alice easily, but he had to rely on hanging to win by playing games with elementary school students in his previous life.

Besides, Alice didn't use magic or anything, just relying on strength and swordsmanship, Merlin, an adult, had no face to release the power of the snake, and he even took the initiative to remove the bunch of life-saving talismans given by Cynthia in advance to prevent these talismans with anti-anti-reaction functions from being triggered.

But shame is shame, after losing someone, Merlin also calmed down, and after he seriously reflected on it, he readily admitted this defeat,

To be honest, after trying to reflect on it, Merlin felt that he really didn't lose unjustly, because his mentality was really wrong.

He and Alice learned swords with the head maid at the same time, and Alice was completely self-taught, and worked hard every day, but what about him?

Qu Snake Jin, this is a hanging school.

Daily swordsmanship practice, this is the same perfunctory thing as going to school and doing morning exercises in the previous life.

So, this is not as talented as others, but it turns out that he doesn't even have the hard work of Little Lori, if he can win, it will be unreasonable.

In the final analysis, he's still too floating.,Still can't jump out of the thinking mode of ordinary people in the previous life.,Subconsciously he always has a sense of superiority as an adult.,As an adult.,I feel like it's not a matter of minutes to beat a little Lori.,From beginning to end, he didn't really take Alice as an opponent.。

In addition, the last time he was in the spirit world, he did easily subdue the angelic little Lori, which made Merlin subconsciously have the illusion that I can do it if I am a demon in the spirit world, so I must be able to do it in the real world.

So, now he tasted the consequences of his previous contempt.

And if you think about it deeper, what about the world? As a traverser, he has always had an inexplicable sense of superiority as a child of destiny, which makes him seem to have always faced the real world with a game mentality.

Thanks to the protection of fierce people like his sister Cynthia and the head maid by his side, otherwise he would have suffered a big loss sooner or later with his boundless mentality.

"Alas, every day I said that I was cautious and my life was important, but I still floated, this punch was worth it."

Feeling the stinging pain coming from the wound on his eye, Merlin sighed and laughed at himself.

And this is also the reason why he later refused Cynthia's treatment and chose to leave this wound behind, and now he is in a state similar to the "sage mode" of the post-L, especially self-aware, knowing that his scar is a salted fish character who forgets the pain.

So, he thought about keeping this wound for the time being, and used this pain to remind himself not to float.

Well, it's really time to work hard in the future, since the shortcut to becoming stronger is no longer the inheritance of the brave, then what I can do now is not to be frustrated and useless, but to have a sense of crisis, and to try to arm myself as much as possible.

That kind of frustrating thoughts like what to do after practicing must not be able to beat the Lord of the Flame no matter how much you practice, I can't beat that big guy, but can't even beat his daughter?

Let's set a small goal and try to catch up with Alice in swordsmanship this year.

Come on, Merlin, for the sake of a better house life, let me start to become stronger by hard work and sweat, Ollie.

Merlin in "Sage Mode" swore so much, just like this salted fish in his previous life, he would swear to quit the game of krypton and try to save money after every time he drew a card and wrecked the ship.

And in Merlin's pocket, he didn't see that it was just when he reflected his salted fish before, the book of hope for the Brave Inheritance that he couldn't open before trembled slightly, as if it was about to break the seal, and after two glows, the bronze book seemed to sense the salted fish nature of the current master, and suddenly trembled again, and then closed the deadlock again, and the cover of the book exuded a tasteless atmosphere.

Ah, that's it? I haven't felt it yet, you're done?
