While John and Selena were walking slowly out of Workshop City towards the commercial market in a carriage, the eldest lady of the Julian family was taking her brother in the carriage and rushing home.

In the car, her sister Delia took the one-handed sword from the guard's hand, and slowly pulled the sword out of the scabbard under the envious eyes of her younger brother Virginie, carefully observing the patterns and blades on the sword.

Although she is a girl, the Julian family does not fail to accept women as heirs to the title, so Delia also received a very strict education, and it is also part of the teaching to recognize the advantages and disadvantages of weapons and how to build them.

However, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't match the genre you have learned. Could it be a new school of blacksmithing?

Delia was thinking about it as Virgil took another sword, smiling carefully with a silk scarf on his face.

Watching Fergil's movements, Delia put the sword back into its scabbard, put it beside her, and said to Fergil, "Fergil, I'm sorry, I guess I can't give these two swords to you." The smile on Fergil's face slowly disappeared, and he lost the desire to wipe it, and threw away the silk scarf casually: "I know." ”

Delia looked at her beloved brother unhappy, and was thinking about how to persuade Fergil: "Virgil......" Virgil said: "Sister, I know, if it's just an ordinary one-handed sword, it's nothing to give it to me." Although my father didn't let me use this real weapon, it was because my body was not yet able to control the sword in my hand proficiently, and I could only use short swords and ritual swords for swordsmanship training, but if my sister really gave me one, my father would not take it. Speaking of this, Virgil raised the sword in his hand slightly, "But if it is a sword that can accept blessings, it is no longer a level that can be used as training supplies for me." ”

Delia looked at her brother with satisfaction, although in terms of learning, Virgil did not have the same innate intelligence as herself, but she could still distinguish between right and wrong.

Delia stretched out her hand and touched Fergil's head: "Little Jill, don't worry, when the family sends someone to buy that two-handed sword tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, I will ask them to bring you a one-handed sword." "Really?" asked Fergil, looking at Delia, his eyes full of hope.

Delia withdrew her hand: "Of course, when did my sister lie to you?"

Virgil was happy again, and the smile on his face returned.

"Of course, it can't be a weapon that can receive blessings. "And you have to promise me that you can't train until you're fourteen." ”

"Hmm!" Ferguill's head kept nodding.

Delia's carriage was not fast, and except for the guards who were sitting in the driving position, the other guards had no problem walking back, so by the time they got home, the two siblings had already missed dinner time.

Julian's family is also a prominent family, and the family education is strict, and the two siblings, who knew that they were late, did not go directly to the main gate, but asked the guards to drive the carriage to the side gate that is usually used to transport vegetables and grains, and prepared to go home through the side door.

But what is called knowing the son is not as good as the father, Delia, who thought that he was doing it unknowingly, was holding Fergil's hand and slowly pushing the door open, and found that the big butler who usually followed his father was standing straight at the door, and behind the big butler, it was a vegetable merchant who wanted to go out and couldn't get out, and was trembling with fear.

"Grandpa Cass......" Delia and Virgil immediately relented, and honestly greeted the butler.

"Miss Delia, Young Master Fergil, the master is waiting for you in the study. Steward Cass bowed slightly to the two of them, and said, "The master doesn't seem to be very happy, please be careful." ”

When Delia heard Steward Cass say this, she asked, "Why, what happened at the court meeting today?" "This is not something I can understand," said Cass, leading the way for Delia and Fergil, "but when the lord came out of the court, his face was not very good, but Mr. Putney was very happy. ”

With a "snap", Delia put one hand on the door of her head: "Every time it has something to do with Uncle Putney, it's troublesome." What's wrong with these two old men this time. ”

The old butler of Cass smiled slightly. As the first housekeeper who watched the head of the family grow up, he naturally knew the relationship between his master and his friends, although the two began to raise the bar with each other since they were young, their friendship was famous in the entire aristocratic circle.

"That's not for me to know, Miss Delia. The Grand Butler Cass said, "Miss Delia, does Master Virgil need me to help you with your sword?"

"No, Grandpa Cass. Delia politely rejected Cass's offer, and Virgil knew that he would not see the sword until he met his father, and was even more reluctant to let go. Since you don't own it, you can take it for as long as you want.

Cass naturally knew that Fergil was not yet old enough to use a real weapon, so after thinking about it, he went with him, then put his hand into his arms, took out a small box and handed it to Fergill: "Young Master Fergil, happy birthday." ”

Fergill took it with a smile: "Thank you, Grandpa Cass." ”

With that, the three of them had already walked into the villa and arrived at the door of the study. Cass stood upright, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, only to hear the indulgence say, "Uncle Cass, come in." ”

Cass opened the door and said, "Sir, I have brought back Miss Delia and Master Fergill. ”

Delia and Virgil walked in, only to see a middle-aged man sitting in the seat facing the door, holding a book and reading it carefully.

"Father, I'm back. Delia and Virgil walked in and said.

"Where are you going to play today?" Nickel put down the book in his hand and looked up at his two youngest children, "Where did these two swords come from?"

"Father, these two swords were bought in Workshop City. ”

"You're out of town?" Nixon's eyes sharpened and he said, "Running so far?"

Delia nodded, "I want to give my brother a birthday present, but those equipment stores only want to sell us ceremonial swords." ”

Nixon knew this, and in order to prevent the children of aristocratic families from being injured or injured by the weapons they sold, they would generally only sell decorative swords without a sharp edge.

"Father, you see, these two swords are capable of receiving blessings. Seeing that Nixon didn't care much, Delia hurriedly handed over the sword in his hand, and Virgil next to him saw that his sister had already handed out the sword, although he was reluctant, he also put the sword on the table?

"Huh?" Nixon heard his daughter say this, and knew that Delia would not talk nonsense, and reached out to pick up the sword on the table, first looking at the scabbard outside. It's just an ordinary leather scabbard, without any decoration, just like the scabbard used in a standard iron sword made for guards in an ordinary blacksmith's shop. Looking at the scabbard, Nixon wondered if his daughter had read it wrong. But Nixon didn't say anything, and slowly drew his sword.
