Chapter 10: The Curious Girl

Raphael turned his head to look at Joanna, and found that Joanna was still staring up at the sky blankly, his brow furrowed slightly, it had been several days since he went to the forest, and Joanna had often been in this state for the past few days. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Joanna, what's wrong with you?" ‘

"Ahh Joanna heard Raphael call herself, and retracted her gaze in panic, looking at Raphael in a daze, "What did you just say." ”

"I said what's wrong with you these days, I often see you in a daze."

Joanna heard a lot of worry in Raphael's tone, and she wanted to tell Raphael everything she had seen from Zachary that night.

But at the thought of the future that was so heavy that it was almost breathless, Joanna opened her mouth and found that she couldn't speak, and she didn't want Raphael, who had taken care of her since childhood, to bear this oppressive future.

Let me bear it alone, Brother Raphael, you have always taken care of me, and I also want one day I can protect you, instead of standing behind you all the time, and being tolerated by you to my ignorance.

Didn't Mr. Zachary say that I would become a hero of the famous continent in the future, which shows that I have such a talent, and if I work harder now, I may be stronger than in the future, and I will be able to protect everyone from the destruction of my beloved village by the orcs.

A resolute look flashed in Joanna's eyes, she raised her head and looked at Raphael with a bright smile: "Raphael, I'm fine, maybe I've been practicing martial arts too hard these days, I'm a little tired." ”

Joanna stood up, gently patted the dust on her buttocks, squinted her big eyes and smiled at Rafael: "Rafael, what happened a few days ago made me feel that I was too weak, so I went back to training first." ”

In response to Raphael's worried eyes, Joanna signaled that she was fine, "I'm fine, let's go first." ”

Joanna waved at Raphael, and after turning her back to Raphael, the smile on her face immediately disappeared, revealing a solemn look.

Raphael squinted as Joanna's back disappeared around the corner, and a trace of worry welled up in his heart, something must have happened that he didn't know, so that Joanna, who had never hidden anything from him, actually didn't tell him.

But Joanna was right, she was too weak, and Raphael had a hint of shame and chagrin in his eyes, and he had been a little slack in his recent training.

Raphael hated the feeling of powerlessness, so since Joanna said that she was going to start practicing hard, I couldn't fall behind, and it was okay to let the little girl protect me when the time came.

Raphael looked at the endless grassland in the distance, a hint of determination flashed across his face, and he gave up the idea that he was going to enjoy the leisurely afternoon in his heart, and took out his long sword from his room and practiced it in the courtyard.

Walking on the breezy village road, Joanna didn't have any of the comfort of the past, and the picture she saw that night kept coming to her mind.

"Ah, Joanna, you fool, you can't hide this little bit of your mind." patted her little face hard, the corners of Joanna's mouth brought out a wry smile, and her immature little face was full of bitterness.

"Forget it, let's start training first, we can only wait for Mr. Zachary to wake up."

For the past few days, Joanna has tried to wake up Zachary every night, but as before, there is no response, making her talk to herself like a fool at the broken sword.

"Ho! Ho! ”

A coquettish cheer mixed with a slightly panting breath had never been heard in the courtyard behind the cabin, and while counting the number of times she swung her sword in her mind, Joanna swung her sword at the imaginary enemy in front of her with all her might.

"Take a step back with your right leg, remember to use your whole body strength when swinging your sword, your strength is too scattered now."

Suddenly, a voice that she had been thinking about for the past few days appeared in her ears, and Joanna was so surprised that she almost threw the long sword in her hand away.

"Mr. Zachary, are you awake!"

"Well, I consumed too much power the other day, that's why it took so long."

From Zachary's words, Joanna could hear that there was still a deep sense of exhaustion in it, which made her feel ashamed.

"I'm sorry Mr. Zachary, you saved me the other day, and I forgot to say thank you to you."

"Well, it's okay, after all, I volunteered."

"By the way, Joanna, you practiced the Swordsmanship of the Reiner Army, who taught you?"

Zachary's voice whispered in Joanna's ear, causing Joanna to look around nervously, and only after finding that there was no one else did she say softly, "It's my father, who used to be a squadron leader in the Fourth Garrison of the Kingdom. ”

"Oh, no wonder." Zachary said with relief, "No wonder you have this sword technique, because this sword technique has never been transmitted to the outside world, only those who have a certain status in the army will be granted, and what comes out of ordinary soldiers is a reduced version." ”

"Ah, no wonder my father told me not to teach anyone else." Joanna nodded understandingly, and then asked suspiciously: "Listening to Mr. Zachary's words, you seem to be familiar with this set of swordsmanship, could it be that Mr. Zachary was a member of the army when you were alive?" ”

Zachary didn't answer Joanna's question right away, and of course Zachary couldn't tell Joanna that in the game of his previous life, Joanna you taught him, "I learned it by chance, okay, don't worry about this kind of question." ”

"Joanna, your posture in the training just now is wrong, the power of your body is too scattered, and it is not gathered in a line, so you can't exert the full power of this sword technique."

"So what should I do?" Joanna asked, walking away, to Zachary.

"The center of gravity is too high, lower the center of gravity, and don't take too far and close a little, right, and then swing the sword out with your right leg in an instant."

Following Zachary's steps, a sharp light flashed in Joanna's eyes, and she swung it violently at the air in front of her, and the moment she swung it, Joanna found that the sword was far more powerful than her usual training, and the sound of breaking through the air was like a thunderclap, and the momentum was extraordinary.

Joanna excitedly swung a few swords at the air in a row, and then reluctantly put down the long sword in her hand, she found that the physical strength of these sword flowers far exceeded her usual use, just a few swords, and she was already sweating lightly all over her body.

"Let's take a break, the Reiner Army swordsmanship is actually more suitable for being performed on horses, and it itself is a simplified version of the secret swordsmanship of the Ernst family of the Reiner royal family."

"Yes." Joanna exhaled softly, walked to the edge of the cabin and sat down, and then asked as if she had remembered something, "Mr. Zachary, can the people next to you hear you?" ”

"No, because I directly use my mental power to transmit my words to my mind, so in fact, Joanna, you don't need to speak, just think in your head."

"Is that so?" Joanna tried to think of what she wanted to say in her head.

"Yes, that's it."

After hearing that Zachary really answered herself, Joanna was full of amazement, and found it interesting and magical.

However, to be able to do this to such an extent, it takes a lot of strength, and it seems that Mr. Zachary is a very powerful man in front of him.

Joanna thought to herself, and she was curious about what happened to Zachary before she died.
