Chapter 161 The Lie of Love

Alger seemed to notice Mo Ran's gaze, so he raised his head: "Brother Mo Ran, I really don't have the talent to learn swords?" ”

Mo Ran didn't know how to answer, so he had to shake his head, indicating that he didn't know.

However, Alger was mistaken, and his eyes became very dark.

"Actually, being a great alchemist will also be respected by people, so... You don't have to be obsessed with ghost swordsmen. ”

"But that's not what I want!"

After saying that, Alger took out a necklace from his collar, and at the bottom of the necklace, there was a small sign that was not gold or wood.

"This necklace was a birthday gift from my father last year, and my father is a very powerful ghost swordsman, but it's a pity... I've never met my father. ”

Mo Ran was surprised: "Haven't seen it?" ”

Alger nodded and said, "Father left Huttonmar when I was just born, according to Mother... My father traveled to the Dark City to help the dark elves fend off the new pretenders. ”

"It's just that the war between Dark City and the Pretenders is very tight, so my father can't leave Dark City. But every year on my birthday, my father would ask someone to bring me a gift. ”

"That's why I want to become a powerful ghost swordsman, because then I can take my mother to the Dark City to find my father."

Listening to Alger's words, Mo Ran's heart suddenly flooded with a lot of sourness, because... That's a love lie.

Perhaps, Alger's father did go to the Dark City, but... What war can last for more than ten years? Even a father who doesn't even have time to see his children?

However, Mo Ran still looked the same, and encouraged: "Then continue to work hard!" Talent is important, but hard work is also essential. ”

Alger's eyes regained their sparkle: "Really? ”

"Of course, in my hometown, there is a saying that the emperor pays off."

"The emperor lives up to his wishes......"

Alger couldn't understand its meaning for a while, but he could appreciate the mood, so Alger kept muttering, and with each mutter, the look in his eyes became more determined.

At this time, the two had already walked out of the Ghost Sword Dojo.

Looking at Alger who was immersed in his own world, Mo Ran smiled bitterly and shook his head, he didn't know if what he was doing was right or wrong, Mo Ran just didn't want to see Alger fall into decadence.

Then, Mo Ran turned around and walked towards the Celia Hotel, leaving only Alger, who was still immersed in his own world.

It wasn't until Mo Ran's figure disappeared around the corner that Alger came to his senses and whispered something to himself, and then ran out of Huttonmar.

……

As soon as Mo Ran walked into the hotel, he ran into Celia who walked out of the kitchen, and a plate of freshly baked biscuits was being held in her hand.

"What is this?"

"Dry food for you."

Then, Celia took the plate and walked to Mo Ran's side: "Seeing that you bought equipment yesterday, I guessed that you would go to Sky City today, so I prepared some dry food for you." ”

As she spoke, Celia held the plate in front of Mo Ran as if she were offering a treasure.

Mo Ran sighed at Celia's delicate thoughts, and reached out to grab a cookie and threw it into his mouth.

Then, a property pops up.

"Ceria's Dim Sum: Perishable, restores a small amount of health and stamina."

After seeing the properties of the biscuits, Mo Ran's eyes lit up, because it was clearly marked in 'perishable' that decay would not begin until a day later.

"Thank you!"

Celia smiled sweetly and handed the plate to Mo Ran's hand: "I can help you... That's all, I just don't know if it's enough. ”

"That's enough."

Mo Ran just waved his hand and put the cookies into the dimensional space, and then handed the empty plate back to Celia.

After taking the plate, Celia asked, "Are you leaving?" ”

"Hmm."

Celia couldn't help but wrinkle her cute little nose: "Then you have to be careful!" Also, come back early! ”

Celia paused, then compared her hands and added, "I'll make you a big meal in the evening, a real big meal!" ”

At this time, Mo Ran had already walked to the counter, and pulled out a double-edged giant axe in the corner, and a broken bag with armor, and then carried it to his shoulder: "Don't worry, I won't miss dinner!" ”

Then, Mo Ran waved his hand at Celia and stepped out of the hotel.

……

When Mo Ran entered the Sky City again, the place had undergone earth-shaking changes, and many people were coming in and out of it.

These people are mainly adventurers, in addition to this, there is the presence of an army and a small number of mages.

The mages are all from the Magic Guild, and some of them are drawing magic circles, and some are studying the castle in the sky.

As for... The army, they came from the noble council, and now their main task is to clean up the remnants of the dragonmen on the first floor, so they have broken up and turned into exploration teams.

The head of Sky City is still Sharan, but... She was just supervising the drawing of the magic array, and she ignored everything else.

Fortunately, the Council of Nobles knew Shalan's temperament, so they sent officials to assist, so all the affairs of Sky City were carried out in an orderly manner.

……

Sha Lan was lying without an image, yawning in the stone chair that originally belonged to the dragon lord, and when she saw Mo Ran enter the Sky City, her eyes lit up, and then she beckoned to Mo Ran with a smile.

Compared to GSD, who has a generous image of an elder, Sharan is more elusive, and many times she acts to her own liking, so there is no need... Mo Ran really didn't want to provoke her.

However, sometimes that's the way it is, the more you don't want to provoke the other person, the more the other person will come to provoke you.

Shalan, for example, has an inexplicable interest in herself, but unfortunately... Mo Ran didn't feel happy, because the other party's profession was very dangerous, and he was a mage who wanted to study everything.

However, Mo Ran had no ability to resist Shalan's call, so after sighing helplessly, he obediently walked up to the high platform and came to Shalan's side.

The high platform is about 6 meters high, and in this empty hall, it is already a high-profile existence.

Therefore, when Mo Ran walked up to the high platform, the people nearby cast their eyes, and even the mages who drew the magic array in the main hall stopped what they were doing and looked at Mo Ran.

Mo Ran is not afraid of being watched by others, but this feeling is very bad, because of the gaze cast by everyone... Neither envy nor fear, it was a complete look of schadenfreude in a strange way.
