Chapter Seventy-One: The Wizard and the Knight (Ask for Recommendation)

After eating the food in her hand again, Artoria raised her head and looked at Xiao Mengran with big bright eyes and asked, "Merlin, are you a magician?" ā€

Xiao Mengran had already remembered his name after sorting out his memories for a period of time, but he still couldn't remember more. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

No, it's not so much that he can't remember them, but rather that these memories are obscured by some kind of force, as if there is a treasure hidden in the fog waiting for him to find.

Seeing Artoria's curious eyes, Xiao Mengran thought for a while and said with a smile: "Almost, you just treat me as a magician." ā€

Hearing Xiao Mengran's answer, Artoria's eyes flashed with hope: "Then can you teach me how to become a knight?" ā€

Many descriptions of knights flashed in Xiao Mengran's mind for the first time, and after pressing the doubts in his heart, Xiao Mengran smiled and said, "Do you know what a knight is?" ā€

Stumped by Xiao Mengran's question, Artoria replied with some uncertainty: "Are those who have a strong body and great strength?" ā€

Hearing Artoria's answer, Xiao Mengran smiled faintly, did not answer her directly, but asked the question again: "Then why do you want to become a knight?" Is it for these? ā€

This time, the girl's answer was very firm, without a trace of hesitation: "No, I want everyone to stop starving and let people live happily." ā€

Nodding approvingly, Xiao Mengran said: "That's it, the real knight lies in his heart and belief, not in whether his strength is strong." ā€

Speaking of this, Xiao Mengran paused for a moment, and then continued: "It's just that if you want to realize your beliefs and ideals, strong power is necessary. ā€

"Without the support of strength, no matter how beautiful beliefs and ideals are, they are just dreams and bubbles in the air."

"No matter how beautiful a mirage is, it can't become a reality. So if you want, you can come to me every day in the future to learn, and I will teach you swordsmanship and some knowledge. ā€

Although he lost a lot of memories, the instinct of his body and the memory fragments in his mind let Xiao Mengran know that his previous swordsmanship should be not bad.

Artoria didn't hesitate, and solemnly leaned over to Xiao Mengran and said, "Please also ask the teacher to teach me." ā€

Accepting the girl's etiquette safely, Xiao Mengran looked at the sun hanging high in the sky, and said softly, "You come with me first." ā€

After speaking, Xiao Mengran turned around and walked under a big tree, and Artoria naturally followed closely behind Xiao Mengran.

After walking under the shade of the tree, Xiao Mengran asked, "What do you think is swordsmanship?" ā€

After thinking for a while, the girl replied with some distress: "I don't know, I just know that if you learn swordsmanship, you can become stronger." ā€

Curling the corners of his mouth, Xiao Mengran said softly: "In my opinion, the so-called swordsmanship is just a summary of experience and skills, there is no invincible swordsmanship, only invincible people." ā€

As he spoke, Xiao Mengran picked up a thin dry branch from the ground, and then said, "Look at it." ā€

Artoria naturally stared nervously at Xiao Mengran's arm, but she only felt a flower in front of her, and Xiao Mengran returned to its original place holding the arm of the withered branch.

It's just that a boulder not far from Xiao Mengran's right hand turned into two halves silently, and the smooth incision seemed to have been cut by some divine weapon.

It's just that the girl knows very well that what Xiao Mengran is holding in her hand is just a rough and ordinary dry branch.

Opening her mouth in surprise, Artoria was a little puzzled why an ordinary dead branch became like a divine weapon in Xiao Mengran's hands.

Seeing the surprise and confusion on the girl's face, Xiao Mengran smiled faintly and said, "That's why I said that there is no invincible swordsmanship, only invincible people." I was able to do this, partly because I greatly strengthened the dead branches in my hands with my magic, but more importantly, I swung my sword very quickly. ā€

"Swords are used to kill people, so in my opinion, the most important point of swordsmanship is practicality."

"You don't need a lot of useless fancy moves, just a few basic actions such as simple slashing and stabbing, as long as your speed is fast enough, so fast that others don't have time to react to your movements, then your swordsmanship is considered a master."

"It's just a sword but it can't just be fast, if your sword is just fast, even if you stab someone with a hundred swords and thousands of swords, but you can't even break through the opponent's defense, then your sword is still useless."

"Therefore, your sword must have strength in addition to speed. It's just that depending on the individual's own situation, some people focus on speed, and some people focus on strength, like me, which focuses on speed. It's just that even so, I'm far stronger than most. ā€

"The next thing to talk about is magic, which is a miracle almost universal power. Not only can magic greatly enhance our powers, but it can also be used to use many spells and skills. It's like I've just used my magic to strengthen the dead branch, making it sharper than a steel sword. Therefore, we also need to have enough mana reserves. ā€

"So I hope that before you practice sword with me, you should start thinking about whether you want to choose strength or agility, which is related to your future path."

"But you don't have to rush to make a decision, because you're still young and have plenty of time to think slowly."

After speaking, a miniature version of the tent appeared in Xiao Mengran's hand, and after inputting some magic power, this tent fell in front of Xiao Mengran and became more than one person tall.

"Come in first, we'll talk about it when we get inside." Xiao Mengran walked into the tent after speaking.

When Xiao Mengran entered the tent, Artoria found that she couldn't see Xiao Mengran's figure anyway, obviously the tent didn't look big.

Curious, Artoria tentatively followed Xiao Mengran into the tent.

After entering, the girl found that the space inside the tent, which looked small, was extremely large, and even the house of the Knight Eckert was not so large.

Looking at the exquisite decorations and furniture, the maiden felt that even the royal palace could not be more gorgeous than here.

Looking around intently, the girl in front of him didn't notice that it crashed into Xiao Mengran's body.

Looking at Xiao Mengran's somewhat helpless eyes, Artoria playfully stuck out her tongue, and then thought in her heart: "Teacher Merlin's body smells so good, and her body is so soft." ā€

Xiao Mengran naturally didn't know what the girl was thinking, he sat on the chair, took out a pen and paper and began to copy the knowledge in his mind.

Artoria stood curiously and watched Xiao Mengran's movements, but she didn't recognize the words on it.
