Chapter X
Christine had been living at Herbert Manor for a week, and she had been given the rules and things of the manor. Sometimes he would help the servants clean up and so on, and his face changed from being emaciated and unfocused.
Theodore sat on a rock by the river, holding a fishing rod in his hand, leisurely waiting for the fish to be hooked. And Christine had just finished her work and walked happily to Theodore's side. Pick two tomatoes from the bushes and feed one to Theodore's mouth. The other is to throw it in his mouth. Theodore was suddenly fed a tomato, and the rod shook in fright. The little fish that was about to be hooked was scared away at once
"Scared me, the manor is done?" Theodore put down his fishing rod and looked at Christine. Christine nodded, then picked up a rock and sat down beside the man. Looking at the river and creek together, "You are also really idle, all day long, you are either fishing or drinking tea." ”
Theodore leaned back, lay on the grass and straddled his legs, and said leisurely, "How can you be confined to your room to read some boring books in such a great weather." Of course, it's time to enjoy the infinite scenery that nature brings. "Christine saw people so lazy, and she also lay down next to people and enjoyed them together. At this time, the sun is not too hot, but very warm and comfortable, giving people a feeling of fatigue. Christine yawned, and Theodore smiled and sat up to look at the person's side face. At this time, Christine suddenly thought of the picture of Herbert saving herself before. He asked, "Anyway, what kind of magic did you use that day, and you actually had so much strength to beat the bear so far?" ”
"Well, it's just ordinary mid-level power magic. It's okay. "In fact, Theodore Herbert told a lie. In the continent of Europe and Kenya, mid-level power magic can indeed withstand hundreds of tons of pressure. But it wasn't enough to knock a bear that heavy with one punch thousands of miles away, not to mention that the air currents at that time almost blew off all the surrounding trees. It can be said that this strength has been controlled, after all, this is only one percent of the power of Horace, the god of power, and the ancestor dragon king.
"Eh, do you want to be magical? There are very few people in our race who are able to use moderate magic. Those who can use high-level magic are the patriarchs of the past. Christine looked at her with adoration. Indeed, Theodore Herbert had read the relevant ancient books. In the continent, in addition to the bishops among the humans, there are dragons and elves who can fully learn magic. Compared to the beast race and the giant race, in addition to being able to rely on their own physique to win. It is the number that determines the victory or defeat of the war, and the dwarves have developed advanced technology and resources. Able to rely on cannon heaters to crush enemies. When Theodore Herbert was a child in the library, he did not like to read ancient history. But he is very fond of books about magic, so in fact Theodore Herbert does not have these special abilities that suddenly appeared. It is already a sword skill that has been completely mastered by mid-level magic and even high-level magic, plus the sword skills that have been passed down from generation to generation by the Herbert family. Presumably, he will be a rising star who will be paid attention to by everyone, but unfortunately this fool has always thought that what he has learned will be anyone in the world. So it didn't show it too much.
"Why don't you show it off?" Theodore thought on a whim, trying to see how powerful his magic was. Christine suddenly became excited and nodded violently.
Theodore stood up, engrossed in the ancient incantation. Christine stared intently at Theodore, and at this moment a large dark cloud began to gather in the sky. In the dark clouds, there were flashes of golden electricity. In Theodore's eyes, a man with a trident appeared in his hand, representing Cyrus, the god of lightning among the twelve gods. Yes, Theodore just wanted to use ordinary high-level magic. As a result, the power of the gods was suddenly activated, and the sky was already resounding with a rumbling thunder at this moment. It was as if a storm was about to sweep around. Theodore's hand was palm-shaped, and lightning from the sky led to the palm of his hand. Then Theodore waved his hand, and five or six bolts of lightning fell from the sky at once. Nothing was left around Theodore, and the woods that were struck by lightning were either reduced to ashes. Either that, or because of it, it started to catch fire. Alan Hillman, who was at Herbert's Manor, saw that countless bolts of lightning were splitting from the nearby forest at the moment, and immediately thought that Theodore was casting a spell. The villagers in Custer Village were also attracted by the lightning, and everyone put down their hands and looked at the lightning.
"Yes...... It's the Lord God Cyrus who is angry!, everybody, kneel down!" An old man's staff fell to the ground, and he knelt on the ground in horror. The other villagers also fell to their knees after hearing the old man's words. Begging the Lord God not to destroy the hometown where he lives, in the face of absolute power. Except that pleading is pleading, but let them know that it is the children of the Herberts who are making such a big fuss in the forest. At the very least, we had to break the door rails of Herbert's house.
In the distance, the Knights from Culster were about to travel to the village of Custer to prepare for a forcible takeover by force. As their leader was riding his horse, they were startled by the sudden sound of thunder. The horse jumped up in fright and threw the leader down.
"Bastard, what's going on!" the leader threw a full dog into the mud and got up from the ground in embarrassment. When he turned to the adjutant beside him, the adjutant and all the soldiers were paying attention to the lightning in the distance, and the scale of the lightning was extremely large. The Knight of Culest, who was originally high morale, was suddenly reduced to the extreme, and for them who believed in and respected the twelve main gods. Seeing the scene in front of him, there was only one thought - Cyrus, the god of lightning, was angry!
Frightened, the leader shouted to retreat, and a large group of heavily armed soldiers were frightened and fled by the forces of nature of this magnitude before they even entered the battle. There is no pride in the journey from Culest. And the leader took all this to heart, and ran back to report to the king.
As the dark clouds in the sky began to disperse and the lightning stopped attacking the ground, Theodore came to his senses. He found that a large area around him had been shattered to ashes by lightning, but fortunately it did not destroy the entire forest. It's kind of in control of this power, but when he turns to Christine. The person was already frightened and looked at him with a frightened face, who knew that if this guy tried it, he would destroy all the surrounding areas, this man was even more terrifying than he imagined.
"Hey, Christine. What's wrong with you?" said Theodore, shaking Christine's shoulder in worry. Christine regained consciousness, stood up tremblingly, and spoke with a trill, "Next time...... Don't play that big, it almost scared me to death. ”
"I think I've got it under control and won't be as messy next time. Hahahaha" Theodore scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and laughed unkindly. And the lightning incident in the village of Custer shocked the royal capital of Culster and Pfister.
