Chapter 13: The Improvised Duel
"Teacher, you. Pen % fun % pavilion www.biquge.info. "Although I have long guessed, as a noble butler, not only a high-level wanderer, but also a powerful spellcaster, such a big backlash is difficult for Ryan to accept for a while.
"Hehe, many people are dissatisfied with the fact that halflings help manage human cities, and if others know that I am a mage, I am afraid that the threshold of Barnard Castle has long been flattened by those so-called nobles." Smiling slightly, although Philip didn't seem to care too much, as a former legendary mage, Ryan knew very well how lost he was in his heart.
Between power and friends, he finally chose to bury himself, and followed Kylot for many years, a feeling of grievance that Ryan could not have imagined.
"It just so happens that I've discussed with Yuna that I'll go to Odurin tomorrow and take you with me."
Seeing that Philip got up and wanted to leave, Ryan suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly grabbed his collar and asked, "That magic, don't you teach me magic?" ”
Shaking off Ryan's palm without leaving a trace, Philip looked at him helplessly: "My major is not right, besides, I haven't touched a spell book for many years, and I have almost forgotten a lot of basic things, do you want to see me make a fool of myself?" ”
Looking at Ryan's black face, Philip once again regained his indecent smile, patted the other party's thigh, and said seriously: "You don't have to worry, although the old guys in Yaoxing Fort have lost their money, but teaching you a little rabbit cub is still a matter of hand, and you will have to fight for Lao Tzu when the time comes!" ”
Indeed, there is no rush to learn magic, after all, there is a difference between the real world and games. Although he has the combat ability of a legendary mage, knowledge is his biggest shortcoming. It's like solving a math problem, he can only write the answer but doesn't know how to get the result, which may be the reason why he can't activate the mage class.
Thinking of this, Ryan also restrained his restlessness, smiled at Philip, and responded loudly: "No problem! ”
"Pack your things and we'll leave early tomorrow morning."
Seeing Philip leave the room, Ryan's heart throbbed for a long time. As the saying goes, Ryan's passion for magic is not only limited to the power of power, he can continue to be a mage for six years, but more of a love, is the desire to explore this mysterious power.
Then again, why does the name Odurin feel familiar?
Scratching his hair, Ryan fell into deep thought, if memory serves, O'Dullin is the capital of Sambia. It is probably more than 900 kilometers away from Horn Creek City, and although Horn Creek City is not far from the Moon Sea Avenue, which runs through several countries, the roads here are not as convenient and safe as they once were.
In the vicinity of this rich harbor city, the main road is a favorite ambush spot for bandits and bandits, and those mountain kings who run all over the mountain are not like the Blackwater Gang in Horn Creek City, most of them are warriors who exceed Ryan's own strength, and if you are unlucky, you may even meet one or two newly awakened warlocks.
To put it simply, it will probably take about ten days to get to Odulin. Looking at the debuff on his body, Ryan's eyes flashed with an incomprehensible light.
As a family that relied on force to rise to power, Barnard attached great importance to the cultivation of combat ability, which can be seen from the area of the castle's martial arts training ground alone.
Under Kailot's arrangement, Luka had to train for a morning every day. It was boring, but in his words, no matter how much he had half a day of pleasure, at least it was much more chic and safer than the marching life of Azales.
Today's martial arts training ground was destined to be lively, and when Ryan walked through the gate in full gear, the number of guards nearby who heard the news was increasing. Lukka had just finished a series of slashing drills and sat a short distance away to rest surrounded by a pile of doglegs, but the mocking gaze never left Ryan.
"Young Master Ryan, are you here to train too?" It was an elderly veteran who was also Barnard's royal coach, and although his hair was gray, a full set of heavy full-body steel armor made him look energetic.
"Uncle Ford, you are really unkind, the injury left by the second brother last time is probably not healed, how can you withstand your drill?" Without waiting for Ryan to reply, Luca stepped forward and retorted to Ford as if he was concerned, but the mockery on his face that could not be hidden betrayed him completely.
Looking at Lukka silently, Ryan didn't go as crazy as he thought, his plain face was like a layer of ice that would not melt for thousands of years, which made Lukka shudder. The latter quickly shook his head, leaving behind the ridiculous delusion in his mind, and walked up to Ryan, looking him condescendingly in the eyes.
"You're in my sight, brother." Without looking up, Ryan's tone was the same as his, which made the surrounding atmosphere depressed all at once.
Raising his eyebrows, Luca's face was a little difficult to look at: "I said that I would call me Young Master Luca." ”
It seems that this kid really sees himself as a servant, and in that case, don't blame me for being heavy-handed. Ryan sighed lightly and slowly got up, his tall figure just over Luca's head, and the latter had to take a step back in order not to look up at the other party.
Somehow, this action suddenly touched Ryan's laugh, causing a distinct grin on the corner of his mouth. Although it was fleeting, the smile pierced Luca's heart deeply, and the latter gradually gritted his teeth and said word by word: "What are you laughing at?" ”
"I suddenly noticed that you and I still have the impression that you are still so short." Ryan's unbridled smile silenced the crowd once again, and even in the warm sunlight, he still felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet. Height has always been Luka's hard injury, and whoever dares to mention this in his ear will definitely invite him to take revenge like a storm, even if it is his own brother!
"Looks like you still haven't learned your lesson." Luka suppressed the anger in his heart, glanced at the martial arts training ground behind him, and his smile looked a little hideous, "Ryan, we haven't decided the winner of the last game, how about it?" Dare to continue? ”
I didn't expect to arouse Luca's anger so easily, and he was still a child. Ryan shook his head, and the resentment towards Lukka in his heart suddenly turned to some pity.
Seeing that the other party shook his head, Luca was about to open his mouth to mock, but he didn't expect the other party to nod and agree: "Willing to accompany." ”
The crowd instantly became noisy, and everyone didn't expect that Luca would still not let go of Ryan, who had just become a fighter, and they didn't expect that Ryan would take the duel without hesitation, and they all laughed at Ryan's bravery.
"I'll be merciful this time." The hideous face made Luka's words seem very unconvincing.
"No, you'd better do your best, or I'm afraid you'll lose too ugly." To everyone's surprise, Ryan didn't seem to have paid any attention to the previous fiasco, and he was so open-mouthed, everyone couldn't help but unanimously express concern about Ryan's IQ.
This kid shouldn't be stunned, right?!
