After returning to the village of Boshka, a week has passed.

Although he has recovered more than half of his injuries, his left hand is still unable to move, and he is still wearing a bandage. Manroe also made an exception to allow him to stop working until he recovered, as a reward for his efforts at the sword fighting tournament.

For at least half a month, Dye Qi couldn't handle heavy physical labor, but in order to help Rare, he still did some simple work every day.

For example, he woke up Manro, prepared the dishes, and delivered the laundry.

The only regret is that I can't practice swords for the time being, which is a great loss for those who learn swordsmanship.

"Don't be so sad, isn't it good to take a vacation, you don't have to work and you can get money. ”

Facing the little energetic Dye Qi, Ailan, who was sitting opposite him, said.

"It's because of this idea that you can't inherit the family's business. ”

"Well, that's because I'm too lazy to learn. ”

"It's not the same. ”

As he spoke, Dye Qi took a piece of bread crisp from the plate in front of Ailan and threw it into his mouth.

"Wait, here's my snack!"

Ailan said dissatisfied.

"What's the matter, you profiteers have cheated me a lot of money. ”

Dye Qi returned the bread money to Ailan a few days ago, no more, no less, twenty yuan.

"That's what you owe me. But..."

Elan paused.

"Forget it this time, don't take it as an example. ”

"Yes, yes. ”

Isn't it just a few chips... Dye Qi thought and threw a few more pieces into his mouth.

"Psionic awakening", Dye Qi suddenly remembered the term Manro said to himself when he was in a daze. The kind of ability that needs to be artificially stimulated, and he actually unintentionally activated it in battle.

A phenomenon that even Manro had never heard of, and sure enough, he was a weirdo. Dye Qi thought so.

"Ah, I'm thinking about something strange again. ”

Elan reached out and poked him in the cheek. A wicked smile on his face.

"It's just something. ”

Dye Qi knew that even if he told Ailan, this optimist who didn't do things much through his brain wouldn't give him useful advice.

And this kind of thing, it's just that I haven't accepted it yet.

"I know what you're thinking!"

Alan suddenly turned her face over.

"What, what..."

"It's a game, that swordsmanship. ”

"Ah, you're so smart!"

Dye Qi looked at Ailan with an incredulous expression.

"Wait, do I usually look like a fool!"

"Who knows..."

Dye Qi smiled evilly and turned his head away.

Ailan puffed out her mouth in anger, but she didn't blame anything, because the two of them got along like this.

"Isn't it just that you can use high-level swordsmanship, isn't that a good thing?"

"I know, it's just that I can't accept it for a while, it's different from ordinary people..."

Speaking of this, Dye Qi's mood suddenly fell.

Ailan knows that Dye Qi is afraid of being seen as an outlier, and all the misfortunes and bullies he has suffered since he was a child are because his appearance is different from ordinary Westerners.

Now he has become an outlier from ordinary people in a sense.

"It's okay, neither I nor Riel will think you're an outlier. ”

Alan could only comfort him like this at this time.

"I know, I just need time. ”

Dye Qi sighed weakly. He knew that Alan and Riel wouldn't see him that way, but what about the others, what would they think of him.

But even if he is distressed, this kind of thing is not something he can control. In that case, it is better to enjoy the snacks and tea of the moment first. He secretly picked up another piece of crisp and stuffed it into his mouth.

While Dye Qi was enjoying the comfort of the bakery, the maid of the Charles family walked in and found Dye Qi. Dye Qi knew this woman, she was the head maid of the Shire family.

"Dye Qi, Lord Lord has something to do with you, hurry up and go back with me. ”

Her tone is beyond question.

"Okay. ”

Although there is still some reluctance to sweet tea and crisps, since it is the lord's order, there is no way to disobey it.

After returning to the manor, Dye Qi could clearly feel that the people around him were discussing him, and this feeling of isolation suddenly came back to him, making him shudder.

No matter where he went, all the servants were whispering in private, and their eyes were looking at Dye Qi from time to time, making him suddenly the center of the conversation.

But what Dye Qi felt was not the stars holding the moon.

"Go in, Lord Lord, waiting for you. ”

The head maid stopped outside the parlor and motioned for Dye Qi to enter alone.

"I see. ”

Is it a meeting or something? Ran Qi had no idea what was going to happen next, but as a servant, he didn't have the right to choose what it was.

Pushing open the door, it was the lord Sheng Hua sitting on the sofa, and opposite him sat a dark-haired man.

"You're here. ”

Sheng Hua's attitude towards him was surprisingly good, which he had never experienced.

"The swordsmanship conference, well done. ”

He patted Dye Qi on the shoulder.

"You've won a prize. ”

Ran Qi looked at his injured left arm, but he couldn't laugh a little.

"Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Yanqi. ”

At this time, Sheng Hua brought Dye Qi to the black-haired man, and he saw clearly at this time that the man's face was actually similar to his own.

Not that genetic similarity, but similarity of characteristics, as if both were born in the same place. No, it must be the same place, Dye Qi so convinced.

"Mr. Iwachi is a traveler from the south, and I think you might have a relationship at the Sword Tournament. ”

"Sword Tournament?"

Dye Qi didn't remember seeing his countrymen at the swordsmanship conference.

"It's okay if you don't remember. ”

Some vicissitudes of life sounded, and it was Yan Qi who spoke.

"From today onwards, you can live with me. ”

"Huh?"

"Oh yes, don't you hear me? ”

"That's... Lord Shenghua?"

"Well, I've agreed. ”

Dye Qi felt like he had been betrayed. Suddenly have to live with a middle-aged uncle, what is this unfolding, is it that he has been sold?

But buying and selling servants in the empire is legal, and he doesn't seem to be able to say anything.

"Lord Shenghua, did I do something wrong?"

Dye Qi couldn't accept it for a while, and he only had options on his mind on how to stay.

"You've done a good job so far, and Mr. Yanqi just wants to adopt you as an adopted son. ”

"Adopted son?"

Dye Qi was stunned for a moment.

"Isn't it!"

He exclaimed.

"It's an apprentice or something, I've watched your game. ”

Yan Qi did not say that he wanted to take Dye Qi as an adopted son, but a disciple.

"Your spiritual energy when you awaken is very good with my swordsmanship, and if I cultivate you, you will definitely be able to get ahead. ”

Iwachi added.

"Is that okay?"

Dye Qi was still unsure of the other party's intentions, but the temptation of more advanced swordsmanship was a great attraction to those who practiced swords.

"It's up to you. ”

Dye Qi fell into deep thought, although the higher-level swordsmanship was very attractive to him, he still wanted to stay here, and wanted to talk and laugh with everyone as usual.

If you don't change, you can maintain this stable life, and you don't have to worry about running out of food and sleeping on the streets one day.

"Dye Qi, you go!"

At this time, a familiar voice came from the door, and when Dye Qi looked back, he found Rare and Manro standing in the doorway, looking at him with a smile.

"Don't regret it when you do nothing in the future. ”

Manro walked into the room and took Dyki's shoulder.

"You're just like me, you're a swordsman!"

He said to Dye Qi.

"Yes. ”

He replied.

"Then give it to me! Learn more powerful swordsmanship, become stronger, this is what you must do as my servant of Manro. ”

He yelled at Dye Qi.

"Manro..."

"Remember, you're just going to study, and you'll always be my servant here, understand!"

He continued.

"Thank you, Manro. ”

Dye Qi reached out and hugged Manro, the friendship of boys, sometimes it's that simple. Although reluctant, a handshake and a hug are enough to express.

He turned to look at Iwachi. The man's face was resolute, his eyes were as sharp as a blade, but they were very warm.

"In the days to come, please advise, Master Yanqi. ”

He bowed respectfully to Iwachi.

"He's a good boy. ”

He touched Dyeqi's head like a father soothing a trembling child.

In the afternoon of the same day, Dye Qi and his friends said goodbye one by one, and everyone was very reluctant to him, but in order to grow up, these differences were inevitable.

By the time we walked along the road to the village, it was already completely dark. Dye Qi didn't know where they were going, but it must be far away.

"Here we are. ”

Yan Qi said.

"Huh?"

Ran Qi hadn't reacted yet, and when he looked back, the buildings in the village were clearly visible, and even if he walked to the village, it would take less than half a day to walk to the village.

On the other side, a simple but lit cabin appeared in front of Dye Qi.

"Excuse me, what is?"

Dye Qi to confirm.

"Well, our future home. ”

Iwachi could avoid his eyes when he said this.

"You're a master of swordsmanship, aren't you..."

"I had no choice but to buy this place. ”

"But why did it do the same as parting before, obviously only how many distances are there? ”

"Well, this is your own misunderstanding. ”

Dye Qi sighed, thinking about whether this person named Yan Qi was reliable, and it felt like it was completely two people when he was in Charles's house.

"I feel like a fool right now. ”

Dye Qi laughed at himself, but to be honest, when he met his friends again tomorrow, it would definitely be unexpectedly embarrassing. And these are all thanks to him, that rock seven.

"So, let's start training you tomorrow. ”

Yan Qi suddenly said seriously.

"Yes. ”

At this time, Yan Qi seemed to be more convincing.

"Run to the village tomorrow morning and buy me a pot of good wine!"

"Huh?"

"Run, got it. ”

"Is it too late for me to go back now..."

Dye Qi felt that he had been deceived.
