The mad dog's expression returned to normal after a moment of stiffness. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he poured down most of the bottle. Wiping the corners of her mouth, Ceresya smiled dryly: "Forget it, this part of the topic is not suitable for talking about in a beautiful morning." ”

"No, I'd like to hear it. Anusen felt a little trembling inside: "Tell me about it." ”

"Is it a request from the elders to the juniors? want to play the role of a life coach and take pity on me?" Seresya's words became sour: "Come on, Lao Tzu doesn't need this kind of disgusting Barra's sympathy. ”

"No, it's a request as a friend. Anusen replied firmly: "And don't forget, I'm an orphan too." Although much luckier than you. ”

"yes...... Fortunate. Mad Dog snorted, "I've always liked that word." Lady Luck has helped me a lot. But the damned god of light, Moya, the god of darkness, and the god of darkness, Loda, have never appeared once. That's why Lao Tzu didn't believe them. ”

After another long sip of wine, Ceresya spoke again, "I'll tell you about the damn past in a while." You want as many great stories as you want -- I've done thousands of votes, and just picking out interesting details is enough to tell you three months without repeating the same thing. ”

When the time comes, call Lusa and the two of them to listen together. Anusen smiled, "We will have time later." ”

"yes, if this damn Winter's Breath doesn't kill us. Ceresya shook her head: "Now the whole city is in a panic. Everyone was on their minds. ”

The two were silent for a moment, and Mad Dog took the lead in breaking the deadlock: "Come on, why is the topic so dull at this moment...... Let's talk about your whetstone. ”

"What's there to talk about?" Arnusen resumed his near-finished grinding, "just an ordinary whetstone." ”

"It's less, it's obviously a high-end product. You haven't used it for me?" staring at the whetstone, Mad Dog snorted: "Natural translucent quartz sand, one of the best and rarest materials for whetstone." The extremely small quartz grains make the sharpened blade sharp and delicate...... Right?"

"That's right. Anusen nodded, "What's wrong with that?"

"And ask me what's wrong...... Mad Dog shook the bottle, "Honestly, how much did this thing cost? ”

"How much is ......" Anusen was a little dazed: "It seems that on my tenth birthday, someone gave it to me." I don't know how much. ”

"Could it be the one you forgot it was again?" Celeya sighed, "You've been using this thing for thirty-two years, and that's how much it means to you......"

If you think about it, my wrong sharpening posture seems to be what she taught me...... Anusen felt in a trance that the person who gave him the whetstone was a girl older than herself. Since then, he has habitually used it to sharpen his sword every day.

"I guess that person has a very important place in my heart. Anusen sharpened one last time and put away the whetstone.

Carefully wiping the sword with a rag, the knight took it in his hand with satisfaction, and carefully observed the human figure and the cold light reflected in it.

"You don't need to sharpen your sword every day, do you?" Mad Dog squinted his eyes: "Just study like me, just sharpen it once every few days." ”

"That's right. Anusen admitted: "It's not really necessary. It's just a habit that has been cultivated over the years. ”

"It's a troublesome habit. It's simply obsessive-compulsive. Mad Dog poured down most of the bottle and put the empty bottle on the table: "I thought about it, and I thought it would be suitable for me to open a small bar in the future." ”

"If you drink more, I don't think you'll live by then. Looking at the two empty bottles, Anusen frowned: "Besides, drinking rush wine and drinking on an empty stomach are all harmless. ”

"I don't need you to worry about my body, health expert. Ceresya laughed, "I'm sure I'll live longer than you, I'll see." ”

"It's a really unfair gamble. Anusen smiled.

After laughing, Mad Dog stretched his waist: "I guess, you don't mind if I accompany you to complete the second habit?"

"Of course. The knight nodded in satisfaction, slung the sword at his waist, and took up his shield—the second habit of the mad dog's mouth was to practice the sword in the morning and in the afternoon.

"Let's just go straight to the barracks. The mad dog swayed lazily: "There are wooden swords and shields used by soldiers in their morning exercises. ”

Walking out of the room into the quiet hallway, the two of them walked straight downstairs.

"I was really surprised by your performance last night. As he descended the stairs, Anusen turned his head to look at Mad Dog: "I didn't expect you to protect them so much." ”

"Oh, that's it. Mad Dog put on a nonchalant expression: "Not at all." It's just that outsiders come to bully their own people, and they feel uncomfortable. ”

"Your excuse isn't very clever this time. ”

"Then I'll give you an analogy. The mad dog changed his words: "Do you know why dogs protect their masters? ”

"Why?" the knight did not understand.

"Because the ancestor of the dog was a wolf. And wolves are notoriously social animals. Ceresya's eyes narrowed: "When dogs live with their owners, they naturally think of themselves as part of the family. When dogs think danger is happening, they will protect the group members in their own way. Then naturally, a mad dog without an owner will also protect the members of the Sweettooth Legion. ”

"What's the explanation?" Anusen found himself unable to find a rebuttal, "Also, why is it still called the Sweets Legion?"

"It's just an analogy. Just understand. Seresa triumphantly jumped down the last three steps and twisted her neck: "Let's do some warm-up exercises in a while...... Just run a few laps around the highlands. By the way, let's see how the city gate is repaired. ”

"It is said that two iron gates will be installed on the bottom of the abutment to be reinforced. Annun walked over to Mad Dog and looked at one of the patrolmen who walked by: the routes and frequency of patrols in Snowcastle were getting tighter and more intense.

"I don't think they're doing that for. Seresa scoffed, "Think about it, once the army of the Corruptors comes, it will definitely attack the outer walls of Eternal Winter. What is the use of strengthening the defenses of the Cold Snow Castle? Once the inside of the fortress is opened by the enemy to transport troops, these strengthened defenses will become corrupted. ”

"The same cannot be said. Although he felt that Celesya's words were very reasonable, the knight still believed that the advantages of strengthening the garrison always outweighed the disadvantages: "There are two sides to everything. ”

"Yes, my Eurasian gold coin has two sides. Mad Dog immediately shot back: "On one side is the face of Eurasia, and on the other side is the emblem of the city in the sky, the capital of the god king." ”

"Alright, don't change the subject. Anusen reluctantly stepped forward: "Let's hurry up and practice the sword...... Dereno will come to the room in a moment to listen to our final decision. ”

"Just don't let my wooden sword cry, knight. Mad Dog immediately picked up and laughed.
