"Okay, Vera, take it, go slowly!" In a pharmacy, the owner of the pharmacy said kindly to the young man who came to buy the medicine, and the red-haired young man in front of him also smiled and nodded, and then took the medicine in his hand and turned around and left the pharmacy and walked down the street.

It's noon, the sun is shining, and the streets are bustling with people, and the whole street looks like a western town, but the red-haired boy is not in the mood to feel the lively and cheerful atmosphere at this time.

"Alas...," Vera sighed, then looked at the medicine box in her right hand, then at the money bag in her left hand, and said, "The money is almost out again, what can I do, shouldn't the admission letter come soon?"

Vera looked up at the sky, there were several pigeons flying in the sky, and she didn't know if her admission letter had come, if she could really enter the Temple Academy, she could get a financial subsidy, and then she would no longer have to worry about money.

"Forget it, let's go fill our stomachs first. After looking at it for a while, Vera touched her stomach and said, then came to the noodle stall next to her and asked for a bowl of Yangchun noodles.

But at this time, a white spirit pigeon in the sky flew towards Vera and landed next to Vera's table, Vera looked at the spirit pigeon, was stunned for a moment, and then followed by great joy, he knew that this was probably the admission letter.

I saw the spirit dove slowly spread its wings, and some light condensed from its wings, and these lights gathered together, and then, when the light dissipated, two things fell out of the light, one white crystal ring, and the other was a roll of notices.

Vera hurriedly put down the noodles and chopsticks in her hand, took the crystal ring and the notice with both hands, and then opened the notice to look at it, and the notice read: "Mr. Vera Chen, after the assessment test, you have met the admission criteria, please arrive at Noah College before January 20, the ring is the proof of identity, please be sure to keep it." ”

"Yay!" Vera jumped up from her seat excitedly.

Vera excitedly immediately took out the silver taels from the money bag, put them on the dining table, and immediately picked up her things and ran home!

When you get home......

"Vina, I'm back!" Vera said excitedly as she pushed open the door of her room when she returned home, and in the living room of the house, a woman in white clothes and red hair sat by the window, looking out the window, and when she heard Vera's voice, she turned to look at Vera.

Seeing Vera's happy appearance, Vina also smiled and said in unison, "Brother, what is so happy?"

"Yes, I'm admitted to the Temple Academy!" Vera said.

"Really!" Vena looked very happy when she heard this.

"Well, you see, the notice and the ring have been sent. After Vera put the medicine box and money bag aside, she showed the notice and the ring to her sister, and after her sister took it carefully, she looked at the notice intently, and then said with a smile: "Congratulations brother." ”

"Well, we're not short of money anymore. Vera nodded.

Vera and Vena, their full names are Vera Chan and Vena Chan, are a mixture of Asian and European blood in this Holy Empire, surnamed Chen, but their surname Chen has nothing to do with blood.

On a snowy night more than a decade ago, Vera, who had just learned to walk, and Vina, who had just been born with a full moon, were lying in the ruins of a village attacked by the Demon Clan, and they were rescued by a Templar in red clothes.

The Templar, Rheas Chen, was a half-race like them, who saved the siblings' lives from the rubble, raised them and named them their adoptive father.

However, three years ago, another village where they were located was attacked by the remnants of the Hope Nation, and Reas wiped out all the enemies who came to them, but left Vera and Vina forever due to the recurrence of old injuries.

The village was destroyed, and in order to make a living, Vera and Vena went to the nearby big city, Aurora City, which is the city where Vera and Vena are now located.

However, what makes Vera even more burdensome is that her sister has been weak since she was a child, and she has to take medicine all the time to recover her physique, so many years, Vina's physique has recovered a lot, but if she wants her sister to fully recover, it will take at least two years, and Vera's financial situation is really very critical.

Vina has been persuading her brother to stop spending money on medicine for herself, but Vera has always denied it, in this critical thinking, the medicine cannot be stopped, if the medicine is stopped now, the efforts of the previous years will be in vain.

But fortunately, the admission letter of the Temple College came at this time, as long as you are admitted to the Temple College, you can get a financial subsidy, and the Temple College takes care of food and housing, and you only need to spend money to manage your sister.

"I will go to Meteor City to enroll, in the past few years of my enrollment, you will live in Xiaoyu's house, I will let the spirit pigeon send it back to you, and you have to take medicine on time. Vera instructed her sister as an elder brother, and the little rain in his mouth was called Lin Yu, who was a little friend of the two.

The younger sister also instructed her brother: "Well, brother, you have to be careful, the Templar missions are very dangerous. ”

"I'm just going to school, and I'm not officially a Templar, so I'm afraid of something. Vera smiled.

"Oh, that.... Ahem, cough, cough!" At this time, Vena suddenly began to cough, covering her mouth, her expression was a little uncomfortable, Vera was frightened, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Vena to the chair and sit down, and then walked quickly to the side of the table, picked up the medicine box and put it on the table, and picked up the water bottle, and said while operating: "Take the medicine first, do you want to eat sugar?"

"No need. Vina shook her head, when she was a child, because the medicine was too unpalatable, she always ate sugar when she took medicine, and sugar had no effect on the medicinal properties, so she ate sugar for several years, and only in recent years has she started to eat less.

Vera carefully soaked the medicine for Vina, and Vena took it and drank it slowly, frowning at the same time, this medicine is too bitter, even if you drink it for so many years and get used to it, it will still be uncomfortable.

After drinking the medicine, Vina let out a sigh of relief, slowly looked at a crimson knight's sword hanging on the wall on the side, and said, "Brother." ”

"Huh?" noticing Vina's gaze, Vera also shifted her gaze to the red sword on the wall, this knight's sword, although it was not unsheathed, but just looking at it like this, one could feel a fiery power, not some kind of hot burning feeling, but a warm feeling.

The sword, called Starfire, was a knight's sword left by their adoptive father, Rheas, and was the weapon he used when he was a Templar, and after his death, the sword was kept, and Vera brought it with her when she came to Aurora.

Vina looked at the sword and said, "Brother, are you going to take this sword with you to school?"

"....." Vera hesitated for a moment before replying: "No, this sword Dad said, don't use it until the last resort, otherwise it will cause us trouble, although I may not be able to use it when I go to school, but I still don't have to be steady." ”

"Hmm. Vina nodded in agreement

"Remember the tree in our yard, I'll go hide this sword under the tree in a moment, otherwise it will be too dangerous for no one to watch the house. Vera thought for a while and said, you know, when my sister lives in Xiaoyu's house, and she goes to the Temple Academy to enroll, there will be no one in the family at that time, and this sword is hanging here like this, it's too dangerous, so let's hide it.

A few days later.......

After sending his sister to his friend Lin Yu's house, keeping Starfire under the tree in the yard of his home, packing up the silver taels and luggage that he needed to bring, and after taking care of all these things, Vera went to the dock of Aurora City, and he was ready to take a boat to Meteor City.

The current Earth, also known as the Sacred Continent, is ruled by the Holy Empire, and most of the places on this planet are land and rivers, there are also some lakes and streams, and there are some large areas of water flow, called the sea. (PS: The proportion of land is larger than that of the sea)

And the boat that Vera is on now is going to Meteor City through the river, and it will take about four days. This route is not the fastest, but it is the safest, because on other routes, there are likely to be remnants of the Hope Country, who burn, kill, and loot.

Although Vera also knows techniques and tactics, he should be able to deal with it, but with his current situation, it is better to reduce the risk and avoid it, and before enrolling, it is better to have more than one thing as much as possible.

On the big boat, there were many people who took the boat to Meteor City, and under the light of a piece of sunshine, the boat followed the river and headed towards the meteor hammer, Vera sat on the bow of the boat with her luggage on her back, looking at the endless river in front of her.

Vera looked at her right hand again, thinking of her father, her sister, the only two relatives in her life........

"Dad, Vina..... I hope my choice is the right one....... Vera said in her heart.

Five days later......

Meteor City, one of the three largest cities in the Holy Empire, is a very prosperous and beautiful city where most of the people gathered here are subhumans in the Holy Empire, and it is also the most heavily guarded city by the Templar Legion, which is even more impregnable than the capital Tianyun City. (Asian: a person of Asian descent)

In front of a huge courtyard building in the center of the city, Vera walked to the front and looked ahead with a smile, this is the second largest temple college among the seven temple colleges of the Holy Empire, Noah's Academy.
