Chapter 124: Striving (II)

The conversation with Leo gave me a lot of inspiration and some warnings - if you are willing to be mediocre, you can only become a "failed otaku".

Although I don't really understand what kind of person an "otaku" is, I'm sure that I definitely don't want to experience Leo's failed life.

And if I fail, I won't have the chance to travel to another world......

Therefore, only hard work is my way out.

To be honest, a lot has happened in recent times, and I've learned a lot from it, but I've also lost a lot of time.

Most of the companions slept, like the militia in Sri.

The difference is that this time I was the only one working on the training ground, and I didn't have Levin to practice with.

Come to think of it, Levin is in the militia camp, so he won't be being bullied, right?

I don't know if Bojie has awakened his anger?

Thinking about this, a little distracted, Leo reminded me.

This time, I was sweating profusely and finally rinsed with water.

Brad got up to pee again, saw me, smiled evilly and said, "Can't sleep again?" Hurry back and lie down, maybe you can dream of Atayal Priest......"

Leo said: "This guy gets up to pee every day, is it a kidney deficiency?" ”

I said, "I'll sleep right away...... but I asked, "What is kidney deficiency?" ”

Leo also smiled evilly and said, "It's just that kind of thing to do too much, or solve it yourself...... Then, just ...... Hey! ”

I looked at Brad's pants in surprise......

Then he put away the basin and went back to his room.

This night, I slept very soundly.

Leo was not in a hurry to sleep, but by the light of the torches, he read the book he had borrowed at noon.

Before going to bed, I said, "Tell me about the book tomorrow...... and I fell asleep in a daze.

Before dawn, Leo woke me up.

I got up early and practiced at the training ground for a while.

When everyone else got up, Tro and Rita asked me, "Bihon, was that the one who didn't sleep outside and run last night?" Also, get up so early in the morning? ”

Brad came over with a grin and said, "Recently, Bijon has been worrying about women's affairs......"

Tro and they all showed that weird evil smile: "Yes, yes! ”

"Know what a fart!" Leo said, "Brave fellow! If you have the ability, you can go on it? Only dare to be a mortal in my heart, destined to be mediocre for a lifetime! ”

"Don't talk about people like that," I smiled a little embarrassedly, but said to Leo in my heart, "If I were just a person with mediocre talent, I wouldn't dare to have such an idea, but as you said, Meteor has changed all this, so it's not that they don't have no pursuit, but they don't have a fate like mine." ”

"You can think about it!" Leo said.

"Well, that's what it's like to grow up......," I said, "no wonder adults say they'll know when they grow up, but they don't seem happy, and it's useless to know ......."

"Well, you're about to become a philosopher!" Leo said.

Captain Billy and the noble guardians always arrive on time. Soon, the line fell silent.

The mission has hardly changed, but it is rare that a few people take turns off - it seems that the affairs of the underground labyrinth and the fox envoy group are almost handled.

Hicks and I stayed and waited for Iru to arrive.

The rest of the people were all acquaintances, but the first time they sat there and watched Iru teach us, they all watched with interest.

Being watched, Iru didn't look a little nervous, but Hicks, whose face was not very good.

Iru didn't talk nonsense, and he started talking when he came up.

And I, too, have returned to my previous state and learned very quickly.

Iru said unexpectedly, "How are you feeling better today?" ”

I nodded, and didn't say much.

All of Ilu's criticism and accusations fell on Hicks.

In fact, he Hicks is not a slow learner, but he is too far behind me......

The rest fighters whispered, embarrassing Hicks even more.

I easily finished today's skills, and Hicks stayed up until noon, barely learning what he had learned from the previous days.

"I've finished teaching what I can teach!" Near noon, Iru suddenly said, "From tomorrow, I won't be coming!" ”

I was a little surprised: "Why? ”

Yilu glanced at me: "I don't know other skills, besides, those unique skills, you have to find a special priest to learn, and it depends on whether people are willing to ......"

Hicks said, "What about me? Iru Training Officer? ”

"You let Bihon teach you," said Iru, "or go to the priests' court and apply." ”

Hicks looked embarrassed.

"That's it, I'm leaving!" Iru said.

"Wait a minute!" I stopped her.

"What?" Iru asked.

I hesitated for a moment, and when I saw that Iru was a little impatient, I quickly asked, "Well, what is Priest Atayal busy with?" ”

Leo suddenly said, "Hey, hey, what are you asking so directly?" People will be unhappy! ”

Sure enough, Yilu asked a little unhappily, "Why are you asking this?" Sister Atay is busy! ”

"I, I think," I said, "since there are some skills you don't know, I want to learn from her...... Can you ...... Help me, ask? ”

"It's over, you've annoyed her completely," said Leo, "don't you know that what women hate most is this feeling of being compared to others?" ”

Sure enough, Yilu rejected me without hesitation: "Sister Ataya is very busy, there are so many important things waiting for her to deal with outside, how can I have time to teach you this novice?" Besides, her skills are similar to mine, even if she has secret skills, she won't teach you easily, don't think about it, hum! ”

With that, Iru turned and left.

"See?" Leo said.

I was a little confused, "What's going on?" ”

"A woman's heart is so elusive...... Leo said.

"But she's not an adult yet." I said, looking at Ilu's back.

"Leaving home before she was an adult, gaining a foothold in the capital, becoming an official named priest, her mentality is much more mature than yours." Leo said.

"How is that possible?" I was a little unconvinced, "You said that I am a real adult, why can't I compare to her?" ”

Leo sighed: "I understand a lot of truths, and there are so many mediocre people who still can't live well in this life, do you want to become one of them?" ”

"That's wrong!" I realized the deflection and asked, "What the hell is going on with Iro?" ”

"It's hard to say...... Leo seemed unsure, "I think it's jealous, but I don't know if I'm jealous or not......"

"Jealousy? She's jealous of Ataya Priest? No way? They're good friends...... "I said," I said, "and what do you mean to be jealous?" ”

"Leave it alone," said Leo, "in short, this little girl is not happy, and may not be so active in coming to your aid in the future, although you will not need her for the time being...... In short, either you want to get him to please her, or you just make a name for yourself. I think you'll choose the latter. ”

"Why should I please her?" I said, "It's better to rely on yourself than to be realistic." ”

Leo and I were talking, but Hicks was sad and ready to leave.

"Do you want me to help you go to the priests' court and ask?" I said, "Arrange for a priest for you." ”

Hicks said lightly: "No, I'll solve it myself." ”

"Oh!" I say.

In the days that followed, I continued to patrol the streets, continued to go to the priest's house to borrow books, and continued to practice before going to bed and after waking up, but I never saw Atayal priest again.

Strange to say, it seems that Ilu's words worked, and the Atayal priest always avoided me.

It was Leo who discovered this.

Several times when I went into the priesthood to borrow a book, Leo reminded me that Iru and Priest Atayal were nearby, but only by a wall or a door.

Most recently, I had just come out of the stone house where the books were kept, and they happened to go around it.

It annoyed me a little, but I couldn't help it.

At the very least, I've learned most of the priesthood skills by now, including the lightning chain I saw when I first met Iru.

It's a pity that after that fight with Anta, I almost didn't have a chance to compete with people, and even in the underground labyrinth incident, I barely used my combat power.

Therefore, I don't have an intuitive understanding of how much progress I have made in my own strength.

When I think about it, it's still convenient when I'm at home, go out with the hunting team, and always meet opponents who won't disappoint.

Leo was right, here, with these guardian warriors who live comfortably, it can really make people mediocre.

"There are two ways," Leo suggested, "one is to challenge in the camp of the Bloodhoof, and the other is to go to the colosseum next to it, which is the standard plot of Yaya's novel!" ”

I was a little moved and ready to try my luck, so I asked Brad and Tro.

They all agreed: "What are you going to do in that kind of place?" We are noble guardian warriors, guardians of the temple, how can we mix with those guys? ”

I said, "I just want to test my combat effectiveness!" ”

Tro patted me on the shoulder and said, "There will be a chance, when your training period is over, some will be sent out on combat missions!" ”

"People can hide if they can, it's good that you still want to rush up?" Brad said.

"Newcomers, always motivated," said Retan, "like us, we have a family, a wife, and children, and we don't want to go out......"

Leo said disappointedly, "Look, what kind of guys are these?" You will not have a future if you follow them! Draw a line with them! ”

I said, "I just don't want to be mediocre like them, there's no need to break up with them, right?" ”

"Don't worry, there's time for you to be separated." Leo was full of confidence, "Opportunity, it's coming soon......"
