Chapter 19: He doesn't know how to be my apprentice

"It's the only tavern in the village in front of it, and it's the only place that might be better......"

At the entrance of the village, old Charlie wrinkled his old skin and squeezed out a smile on his face, and led the young man towards the tavern. In fact, after seeing the pattern on the young man's sword, he had a bold guess about the young man's identity.

The people of the Barak kingdom know a piece of history. About 300 years ago, the Chaman Empire, who was sitting in the north of the continent at that time, died suddenly, and the Nuoda Empire faced a crisis of division under the confrontation of many heirs.

At that time, the current territory of the Barak Kingdom only occupied a very small proportion of the empire, which was simply negligible, so for a long time, this piece of land had no time to be taken care of.

And such a borderless land with rich resources has a fatal attraction to the aristocratic forces of all backgrounds from other countries on the mainland!

First there was a secret fight, then the struggle gradually escalated, and finally, with the continuous increase of various forces, this land was almost destroyed, frequent wars caused the development of the productive forces in the north to stagnate, the nobles ruthlessly exploited the value of the indigenous people, and the people struggled in hopeless pain, in the history of the kingdom, this period is also called the "Dark Ages",

It wasn't until 1018 in the Odin Continental Calendar that Traylor Barak, who was born in a declining aristocratic family in the small town of Lombard, held his own coming-of-age ceremony in this year.

After the coming-of-age ceremony, young Traylor Barak could not bear to see the war in his hometown, and he was determined to save his homeland.

In the two years that followed, he formed his own army. During the long battle, he exerted his extraordinary command ability, and under his leadership, it lasted twenty-three years to pacify the north. He was officially enthroned in 1043 by the Odin Continental Calendar as King Barak I.

As the family flower of the Barak family, the pansy flower has since become a symbol of the royal family of the kingdom, and in addition to the royal family, only the standard equipment of the palace guardian knights who are directly loyal to the royal family are allowed to engrave the pattern of the pansy flower.

And the palace guardian knight will not have a samurai to follow, let alone run around with a child. So the identity of the young man is about to come out!

It's just that old Charlie also has his own calculations, since the noble man has not revealed his identity, then treat him as a palace guard knight, which is actually not bad, isn't it?

In the village, everyone looked at the street curiously, they had never seen old Charlie treat anyone so strictly, and they couldn't help but guess the identity of the young man.

The young man did not feel the slightest discomfort in the face of everyone's scrutiny, and slowly followed behind old Charlie, always with a gentle smile on his face, releasing kindness to everyone.

"Small place, maybe a little shabby......" Arriving at the front of the tavern, old Charlie carefully peeked at the young man's expression, lest the young man in front of him be dissatisfied.

"Yes. Thankfully, the young man looked around the tavern and smiled.

However, the boy who followed closely behind him was a little unbearable at this time.

"We're going to live here?" said the boy, looking at the tavern with disgust, "I don't want to live in this dirty place!"

......

Outside the tavern door, Henry was still frowning and looking north.

The impact of this Magister battle for ordinary people may only be a few degrees of sudden drop in temperature, and the most breath of fresh oxygen from the photosynthesis of trees is a few breaths.

However, Henry felt the danger, he was almost ready to flee, if the battle broke out in the place where it was first felt, I am afraid that there would not be a living person in Bran Village now, and even if he did not leave in time, he would probably die here.

Although the battle has subsided now, who knows when the fight will start again, the battle of the big guy, a pond fish of his level, one will hurt the other.

So he wasn't in a very good mood at the moment, and when he heard the boy's words, he couldn't help but snort coldly: "No one wants you to live here." ”

"You ......" The boy named Gal heard this, his little face turned red with anger, but as soon as he saw the hideous scar on Henry's face, he was immediately frightened and hid behind the young man, and then he looked at Henry viciously and scolded: "You ugly bastard, go to death......"

"Gal!" the young man said to stop the boy.

Gal looked at the young man aggrievedly, and when he saw the young man's determined eyes, he couldn't help but turn his head.

The young man stopped Gal's outburst and said to Henry sincerely, "I'm sorry, the boy is not sensible. ”

Henry looked up at them, "Are you looking for a place to live?"

Then he turned around and went into the house and said, "There is a vacant room on the second floor, ten copper coins a day, but you have to clean it yourself." ”

......

On the balcony of the third floor of the castle.

"I'm starting to believe you said that the manor was re-planned by Ari!" Gather couldn't help but sigh as he watched Ari nimbly evade the guards' patrols and leave the castle alone, "It's hard to believe that this is still a child." ”

Gully nodded and said, "But I don't really want him to be like that." ”

"How?" Garthers was a little curious, is his own child not smart?

Gully sat across from him, his gaze on Ari's back full of pity: "Ari is smarter than ordinary children, largely because of the curse, the more he gets, the more he actually gives. The curse is born with his soul, existing in his spiritual sea, once the curse erupts, even the holy magic staff needs to do all his best to suppress it, the confrontation between the two, the pain at the soul level, is no less than crushing the soul and rebuilding, I really don't know how he carried it, this pain is afraid that even I will collapse in consciousness. ”

Garthus nodded in agreement and said, "No wonder his spiritual power is terrifying, I'm afraid that his spiritual power is comparable to that of a junior magician." ”

What Garthers didn't know was that Ari's physical body was actually more terrifying than his mental power. The curse exists in the depths of Ari's soul and can constantly absorb Eri's power to strengthen himself, and the Holy Magic Wand must also absorb additional power to maintain suppression, and this power must be Eri's own strength. The purpose of the medicinal bath is to provide energy to the Holy Magic Staff, and although the energy contained in the medicine is absorbed by the Holy Magic Staff after entering Eri's body, Eri's physical body is still strong under the continuous washing of powerful energy.

"The reason you can't solve the curse is because it's in Ari's soul, and that's why I was able to fix it.

The curse is also a type of power, and since he is integrated into Ari's soul, its attributes are the same as Ari's, and it is impossible to destroy it, as long as it grows to a certain extent, it will assimilate Eri. But in the same way, as long as Eri's spiritual power surpasses it, it will be absorbed and assimilated by Eri, and become Eri's power! At that time, it will be tantamount to turning the curse into a huge treasure. ”

"Just before that, remember the conditions you promised. Garthus said lightly.

"Well, what is needed, just as told. Gully nodded.

"I'm talking about making Ari my apprentice," said Garthas, glancing at Gully, "I'm not going to be polite to him, so don't feel sorry for him then." ”

Who knew that instead of getting angry when Gu Li heard this, he nodded solemnly and said, "Then please Your Excellency!"

Garthus choked for a moment, suddenly got up and sneered, stood up, and said, "He doesn't know how to be my apprentice yet." ”
