Chapter 22: The Covenant of the Strong

The Laurent family, Bill ran away early in the morning! He believed that Fiona would definitely scrape together enough money for what he wanted, because she was a persistent person.

Twenty delicate and beautiful crystal coins arrived, Bill nodded with satisfaction, two thousand gold coins are a lot, but Fiona is still easy to get by virtue of her identity as the heir of the family, plus the private money she may usually save, it shouldn't cost Fiona much energy.

With a snap of his fingers, Bill was as happy as a rough pirate leader.

"You should have told me now, right?" Fiona was already in her own training ground, the broken window had been repaired, and Fiona, who had been waiting here early in the morning, had not trained her swordsmanship as before, and rarely basked in the sun.

When it comes to rest time, Fiona is undoubtedly very demanding on herself.

"Come? Pretty Miss Fiona, I'll take you on a boat! Bill stepped forward with a smile, looking like if she didn't want to go, she had a good intention of pulling Fiona away!

"Tell me right away! I still have to train! Fiona frowned, two thousand gold coins were lost from her hand, she was a little tired of this greedy man, this fellow, who looked like a noble gentleman, was in fact a ruffian! Insatiable.

"Ms. Fiona, it's not that I don't say it, it's because the situation is special, if this kind of thing can be said directly, your father would have told you the book a long time ago, and he wouldn't have taught you so hard In this world, there are many things that can't be said in one sentence."

Fiona stared at Bill suspiciously, but didn't answer.

"In my opinion! Your training is simply a joke, your hard work is a child's game, have you ever seen a big man squeeze his physical strength like you every day? Fiona, in terms of swordsmanship, you have actually embarked on a wrong path, you know? ”

Bill's meaningful edification, which he had arranged long ago.

"For a swordsman master~ what is really powerful is not the sword in your hand! It's here! Bill patted his chest and gestured to Fiona.

"I know that you have always looked down on me, this is the mistake of your personality, and it is also a mistake in your swordsmanship, after all, there is a specialization in the art industry, that's it!" Bill spread his palms, expressing his frustration with the pedantic female swordsman.

"The final choice is up to you~ Trust me, or, just treat me as a liar who cheats money, you can ask for your gold coins back!"

Bill smiled, and then stood still.

"The tone of your voice is very similar to that of my father," Fiona did not formally answer, but asked this sentence for no reason, and then looked into Bill's eyes.

"Really?" Bill was noncommittal.

"As you say! You're also a strong man, aren't you? ”

"Of course!" Bill nodded affirmatively, and the diverse nervous thinking of modern people made him admit it without hurry.

"Then as a strong man, he dared to abandon his sword in the face of challenges?" Fiona remembered what had happened yesterday, and for such a cowardly fellow, Fiona looked down on her.

Bill didn't answer, but seemed to be thinking.

He thought of Fiona's father, who was not despicable, but had the courage to bear any wind and waves, even the spurning of the family, and the daughter's sword was opposed.

"Alas!" Bill is really sighing, "Cowardice or not, it's not as you seem"

Bill doesn't know how Fiona will feel when she sees her brave father showing a cowardly side. I'm afraid that Fiona's faith will collapse like this, right? It was definitely a blow worthy of death.

Bill's silence also caused Orfina to ponder, and she looked at the bayonet in her hand, and then put it back on the shelf.

"Where are you going?" She hadn't agreed with what Bill had said, but she had seen the look from her father, which made her hesitate to believe him.

"Hehe~ It's a lucky thing to share a boat with the beautiful Miss Fiona!"

"I am also impressed by your hypocrisy, and your greed, and if I can't find an answer that satisfies me, I will follow the sword in my hand!"

Fiona finally followed Bill away, and when the Laurent family saw their proud daughter of the sky, the new star of the sword actually left with another strange man, everyone's mouth opened in shock, attracting countless hateful glances.

Bill's emotions in his heart were even more complicated, and he thought of being the proud daughter of the sky again, and waiting until the future to be spurned or even insulted by anyone who once revered her, I really don't know what it feels like! Except for the authorities, no one knows exactly what that feeling!

"What were you looking at?"

The two of them left the Laurent family's manor house and walked down the bustling streets.

"Do you know why Demacia and Noxus are hostile?" Bill didn't answer, but asked Fiona beside him.

"I'm not very clear about politics." Fiona shook her head in confusion, it was not surprising for a child or even an heir of a large family to study military and politics.

"Hehe, then do you know the difference between a horizontal sword and a vertical sword?"

"My sword, good at thrusting!"

Fiona really looked hopeless in Bill's eyes.

"Okay, well, what I'm trying to say is that they take different paths!" Bill didn't guide Fiona anymore, but continued on his own topic.

"In essence, there is nothing wrong with Noxus and Demacia, and the horizontal sword and the vertical sword are just the difference in direction."

"Huh?" Fiona understood a little bit this time.

"So do you know your own direction?" Bill tried to ask.

But such a question easily stumped Fiona.

After thinking to no avail, Fiona asked Bill, "What about you?" ”

"Hehe~ No matter where you arrive? I'm going to survive well" Bill said the meaning, I'm afraid no one in this world can understand, of course, he doesn't need others to understand.

"Does that count?" Fiona looked at Bill in disbelief.

"Of course!" Bill affirmed.

"Then I like dueling!"

"Well, then what?" Bill listened.

"And then?"

"Yes!" Bill nodded.

"And then what?" Fiona was puzzled, today, as soon as she met, she felt that Bill was in a weird, elusive state.

"Alas~ stupid girl! You like duels, but you enjoy the honor it brings you, and you like to taste the taste of trampling people under your feet! But this is not the direction in which you compare swords, you have to find it, it is a path to master your swordsmanship, just like the infinite way of the Infinite Sword Master! ”

Fiona had drawn her sword, and she would not allow anyone to be defiled except her father.

"If you want to duel! Hehe, give me a little time, and I'll show you what a real strong man is! Bill completely ignored Fiona's movements, and said even more merciless sarcasm.
