Chapter 19: No more confusion

Zheng Jiuye didn't seem a little absent-minded until he returned to the guild - he trained when he had training, and when he didn't have training arrangements, he kept sitting alone on the roof, flipping through the history books in his hands.

The geography of the empire has been solved on the way, and the history has been memorized in this way...... Fortunately, you don't need to know much about the history of the previous dynasty, you can just criticize it on the essay topic; In this case, the only thing left that has not yet been learned is the part of aristocratic etiquette.

There is still a day and a half to go before the exam, so it should be too late......

"That kid doesn't seem to have much energy since he went out with you," at this moment, Axol's voice came from downstairs, "what happened to that kid?" ”

Teacher......?

Zheng Jiuye began to listen carefully to the next conversation.

"It's nothing, he did the task himself. But I just saw something not so good at the end, so ......"

Yan Jin briefly told Yakso what Zheng Jiuye had experienced in the entire mission.

"Is that all it takes? Assassins shouldn't have a heart when they're Assassins," Axol said after hearing this, "Well...... That kid is still far from it. ”

The teacher said that assassins shouldn't have ......? That's not right, right! That's not right at all?! If you can kill anyone after receiving the money, wouldn't it be the same as a murderer......

At the end of the day, I ...... myself

Zheng Jiuye sat quietly on the roof of the building, and for a while he couldn't think of what to do.

"Shouldn't an assassin have a heart? Although this statement itself is true...... But everyone has a different opinion on this sentence," Yan Jin paused for a moment, and continued, "I hope Xiao Jiuye can find his own direction." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zheng Jiuye lowered his head and sat cross-legged on the roof, squinting and not knowing what he was thinking.

"Nine-night!"

"Ah...... Oh, it's Sophia," after hearing Sophia's voice, Zheng Jiuye came back to his senses a little, "What, is there anything wrong with me?" ”

"Well, I heard you completed the task yourself! It's obviously a very difficult thing to do...... Because you completed the task, the teacher told me, let me give this to you! ”

Sophia handed over the contents of her hand.

"Hah...... Curfew permits? ”

Curfew permits are something that can only be issued to official Assassins, and having a curfew permit means that curfew rules can be ignored throughout the empire - after all, many Assassins have to do things at night, so this is one of the must-have items for every official Assassin.

Although Zheng Jiuye's previous mission didn't seem to comply with the curfew......

"So...... You're amazing, aren't you? Then come and try it out with me! How? ”

As she said this, Sophia condensed a fireball in her hand and threw it towards Zheng Jiuye with her hand.

"Sophia? What are you doing all of a sudden...... You're not asking me at all! ”

Zheng Jiuye, who felt the heat wave that was already close to his body, changed his face, threw the materials in his hand towards the fireball, and then turned over and jumped downstairs.

No way...... This thing is really lethal! Doesn't that guy even know if to use all his strength?

No matter what world you are in, fireball seems to be the standard for mages? However, this type of spell should still be easy to intercept......

Zheng Jiuye's book collided with the Fireball Technique, directly igniting the flames of the Fireball Technique, and at the same time preventing the Fireball Technique from moving forward; Immediately after, Zheng Jiuye's whole body had cleverly flipped in a circle, grabbed the railing and went around it before falling to the ground.

"Don't try to run!"

Zheng Jiuye had just landed, and Sophia's skin was already glowing red; Immediately after, Sophia jumped directly from the second floor with Zheng Jiuye...... Then it landed right in front of Zheng Jiuye!

"How many skills have you learned in the past two days......!"

Zheng Jiuye gritted his teeth, and his skin was also glowing red; Immediately after, Zheng Jiuye's hands slapped quickly, and a large amount of mist quickly emerged from Zheng Jiuye's body, directly enveloping Zheng Jiuye's body.

"And that's not all...... Clairvoyance! ”

"The archer's clairvoyance and the mage's fireball ......?"

Zheng Jiuye pulled out a crowbar from behind him, aimed it in front of him and swung it hard, directly dispersing the fireball technique that was about to fly in front of him. However, because the fireball technique had sufficiently destroyed the smoke, there was a way through which people could be seen - however, Sophia, who was supposed to be there, did not appear in this path.

Not good...... Breath blocked!

Zheng Jiuye turned his head violently, just in time to see Sophia holding a dagger charging out of the smoke and appearing behind Zheng Jiuye.

"Dingβ€”"

Because of the blockage of the breath, Zheng Jiuye couldn't keep his attention on Sophia at all; He could barely use the crowbar in his hand to block Sophia's attack in the same direction, and at the same time he slammed into it with a clean mallet aimed at the position in front of him.

"Hmm......"

At the same time that Sophia's stomach was hit head-on by Zheng Jiuye's headbutt, Zheng Jiuye's right hand also successfully knocked the dagger in Sophia's hand away.

"Thank you...... At least I'm feeling better now......"

By the time Sophia reacted, Zheng Jiuye's Hidden Blade had already reached Sophia's neck.

"Huh? What did you say in the Nine Nights? ”

"Nothing...... The next time you come to practice with me, remember to be merciful! Don't use all your strength, I'll really get hurt if you use that fireball technique! ”

Zheng Jiuye complained loudly at Sophia.

"Hehe, I'm used to practicing with my teacher......"

Sophia scratched her head and smirked embarrassedly.

"I'm not a teacher...... What if I get hurt? It's dangerous! ”

"If the best of these two little guys come together, it's perfect...... Xiao Jiuye's combat IQ is still terrifying with high consciousness, but it is Sophia's child who is favored by God. ”

After Yan Jin finished watching Zheng Jiuye's brief drill with Sophia, he turned to Yaxo and said.

"Assassins don't work in pairs...... This situation is to complement each other, complement each other," Axo didn't care too much about this, "Sophia is...... Well, I'm not very good at using my brain. So, wouldn't it be nice to make a plan for Nine Nights and let Sophia carry it out? ”

"Well,It's okay to say it's okay, but that wouldn't be in line with my original intention," Yan Jin scratched his head in distress, "It's hard to find someone who can be her heir, and this kind of person who meets the profession will basically not be met in the future......"

"What's that? A mad assassin? ”

"Alright...... I'm going to go back and study, I'm about to take the noble exam, and it's still a question of whether I can pass it now......"

Zheng Jiuye was about to go back at this time, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Yan Jin standing next to Zheng Jiuye.

"Actually, you're ahead of your time...... Even if you don't go, it's only a matter of time before this happens," Yan Jin said softly, "and it's happening all over the country." If you encounter the same thing again, will you still be confused? ”

"To be honest, I don't know ......" Zheng Jiuye shook his head slightly, "If I encounter the same thing again, my greatest possibility is that I will observe...... And then, act with my own judgment? ”

"So...... Should an assassin have a heart? ”

"It should be more blazing than anyone's heart......" Zheng Jiuye replied in a deep voice, "It should also be calmer than anyone's heart." ”

"Well, anyway, you've found your way...... It's a bit of a departure from that guy in Axol," Yan Jin nodded, "So...... Starting tomorrow, I'm going to train you! ”

"I can't ask for it!"

Special training......

At the beginning, although Zheng Jiuye's attitude towards training was not extremely disgusting, he didn't necessarily like it much. But now, the situation is different......

Anyway, why does it always feel like something is missing?

Zheng Jiuye sat on the roof and looked left and right, and then scratched his head.

"Holy! I just threw the textbook out and burned it! What about tomorrow's examβ€”"
