Chapter Forty-Six: The Inheritance of Faith: The Seed Planted by the Knight
"I didn't expect you to have the opportunity to learn more than three stars of magic from here. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Darke laughed playfully, "I think this is probably what your father-in-law taught you." ”
"Don't talk nonsense!" Dante said coldly, and the cold brilliance on the cross sword flashed, and the light element condensed again.
"Why be so anxious to lose? I want to play again. Dalk helplessly spread his hands, not taking Dante in the slightest.
Three-star Light Warfare: Holy Light Slash!
Dante made a rapid charge, and the holy light slashed straight over, forming an arc of energy that violently rubbed against the air and made a screaming sound, leaving a shallow trace on the ground.
Anti-Rachel!
Dark's backhand move Rachel was several points more powerful than his forehand.
The purple thunder arc jumped, gradually disintegrating the energy arc constructed by the light element, and counterattacked with a fierce momentum.
This Rachel, which is comparable to three stars in the two-star world, has actually cultivated it to the three realms to strengthen!
At this moment, Dalke's talent was undoubtedly revealed, even though this guy had a thousand vices, his own strength was enough to laugh at his peers.
Touch!
Rumble!
Dante was struck by the weakened Rachel, and the new armor on his chest shattered completely, scattering pieces in the air.
Even the cross sword that had followed him for years was broken in two!
Time seemed to stand still at this moment, and Dante fell to the ground, and Catherine's eager cry was faintly heard in his ears.
Defeated?
Yes, I'm still too weak. Father, I'm sorry I didn't even keep the last thing you left me!
······
Squeak!
On the smooth and winding path, a board car slowly moved forward, making heavy noises along the way, obviously old.
On the cart sat a bearded man and a little girl carved in pink.
The man raised his whip, and the old horse in front of him strode with great difficulty.
"Daddy, how long will it take to get to Doco City?" asked the little girl with a wink, the two little dimples on her face were very cute.
The man touched the girl's head with pity, and every time he looked at the innocent and godless eyes, he felt heartache.
"Soon, hold on a little longer, Catherine. ”
"Well, Catherine is very well-behaved. The girl nodded obediently.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the grass on the side of the road, the man's eyes froze, and his big hand instantly fell on a cross sword beside the car.
Syllable!
Suddenly, a head poked out of the jungle, with short blond hair and a dirty face.
The man frowned and hurriedly pulled the carriage back.
The old horse neighed, raised his front hooves, and slowly stopped.
Syllable!
The man jumped out of the car and walked to the side of the road.
At this time, the little one also came out of the bushes, wearing a broken cloth coat, and there were scratches, and the blood had long since scabbed.
"It's okay. The man half-crouched down, with a warm smile on his face, and asked softly.
The little guy shook his head, but he was at a loss.
"There! Chase!"
Just as the man was about to inquire about the specific situation, a rush of footsteps put him on alert.
After a while, five people were thrown out of the forest, their faces painted with oil paint, felt hats on their heads, bows and arrows on their backs, long knives on their backs, and several vicious wolf dogs.
"Bounty hunter!" the man saw the appearance of several people, and instantly judged their identities.
"Don't!" The little guy showed a frightened look when he saw the five people, and suddenly got behind the man, and a pair of small hands tightened the corners of the man's clothes, carefully exposing his head.
"Hey, talk about you, don't meddle with things!" a big man in the lead pointed at the man with a long knife, and his tone was quite unkind.
"Sure enough, he is worthy of being a bounty hunter, even a child is not spared!" the man clenched his left fist and said coldly, judging from the performance of several people, how could he not know what was going on.
Bounty hunters are notorious in Erlo, a group of outlaws who don't want to die for money. It can be said that there is nothing they dare not do to kill, set fire, commit adultery and plunder.
"Who are you, and how dare you mind our business?" said the big man viciously.
"Mars, a knight. The man said lightly.
"I advise you to hurry up, or you will lose your life. The big man stretched out his yellowed tongue and licked the corners of his mouth, looking extremely sickly.
"Mercy, justice, this is the rule of knights!" Mars took a step forward, his tall body standing in front of the little one.
The little guy's eyes were bright, and at this moment, only one sentence penetrated into his heart, turning into a seed, waiting for time to ferment and take root.
"It's really looking for death!" said the big man angrily, and one arrow rushed up, as did the other four.
Holy Light Slash!
Mars just swung a sword, and a strong light shone on the entire forest, stabbing the eyes of the five people in pain.
Smack! Smack! Smack!
After a sword, all five of them fell to the ground, not even breathing.
"Ahem!" Mars suddenly turned purple and coughed violently. He didn't feel any guilt for killing these five villains.
"Uncle!" the little one struggled to tiptoe and reached out to pat Mars on the back. "Are you better?"
Mars looked back at the little one, and his heart suddenly warmed.
"What's your name, little one?"
"I... I forgot. The little guy shook his head, still dazed.
"Forgot?" Mars's frowning brow slowly loosened after a moment, presumably the excessive startle had caused him to temporarily lose his memory.
Since he has amnesia, it is impossible to ask the reason why these five people chased and killed him.
Mars stood up and looked around, it was still outside the city, close to the Black Forest, and it was even more dangerous at night.
"Then the little one wants to go to the city with me. ”
"Oh... Okay!" the little one nodded.
Mars picked him up and placed him on the cart.
"Daddy, Daddy, what's going on?" the little girl whispered.
"Nothing, just a couple of bad guys, and Dad has chased them away. Mars said lovingly.
The little guy looked at the doll-like girl in front of him, and couldn't help but reach out and poke the pink cheek that could be blown up.
"Ahh
"Hello!" the little one laughed.
"Who are you?"
"Catherine, I found him in the woods, how about we take him to the city together?"
"Is it a street child?" muttered the little girl, who had heard that some street children would live in the jungle for food.
"No!" the little guy suddenly flashed pictures in his mind, and his voice couldn't help but raise a lot.
"Woo-" The little girl was startled by the voice, and began to cry.
The little guy was suddenly at a loss, he subconsciously stretched out his hand to wipe the little girl's tears and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have scared you, don't cry." ”
When the little girl heard this, she puffed up her face and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that about you, but you can't talk to me so loudly in the future." ”
"Well, no one will talk to you like this in the future, and whoever bullies you, I will beat him!" the little guy raised his fist and said fiercely.
Mars didn't say anything when he saw this, chuckled lightly, and raised his horsewhip.
"Hee-hee, you're so nice, no one has ever said anything like this to me. The little girl smiled and smiled, leaving behind a string of silver bells.
"Nobody, don't you have any friends?" the little guy scratched his head.
"I... I··" The little girl suddenly lowered her head, not daring to speak, and Mars on the side looked at her with an afterglow, as if encouraging.
"I... They don't play with me!" The little girl's eyes were red and she was crying.
The little guy subconsciously waved his hand in front of the little girl's eyes, but said, "What's wrong if you can't see it? I'll play with you in the future!
"Really?" said the little girl, in surprise how she longed for a playmate.
"Of course! I, Dante, never tell lies. The little guy patted his chest with a swear.
"Dante, is your name Dante?" said the little girl, surprised.
"Dante, why am I called Dante?" the little one came to his senses, and seemed to remember something again. But as soon as he tried to remember, his brain buzzed, as if there were thousands of bees flying back and forth.
"Ahh
"Dante, don't try to remember!" Mars snorted, finally pulling him back.
"Are you amnesia?" Catherine was clever enough to guess why.
"yes, I don't remember. Dante deflated.
"Don't worry, I'll remember it slowly. Catherine smiled.
"Yes!"
On the road, the car is moving, and the horse is running. The two who were originally lonely also felt extra warm because of this boy who appeared suddenly, maybe this is the fate given by God.
At dusk, under the blood-red light of the remnant sun, the car finally came to the city of Doke.
Mars entered the city and headed for Fourth Avenue South, where he had already purchased a house.
The slums are at their busiest in the evening, when everyone comes out. The old people smoked a cigarette in front of their house, or gathered together to chat. Children frolic in the streets, jumping up and down.
Smoke wafted from the dilapidated houses, and the smell of food filled the streets and alleys.
This kind of peaceful and warm atmosphere is really difficult to see in those high-end settlements, who may not be rich in material things, but they are so happy.
Mars led the horse forward, and came down to a wooden building in a crowd of curious people.
"Phew—let's stay today, and the rest can only be found tomorrow. Mars looked at the ruined house and said helplessly.
"No, Uncle Mars, it's good here. Dante jumped out from under the carriage and comforted Catherine by the hand.
"Okay, I see, just you kid will be considerate. Several people along the way also got acquainted, Mars replied heartily.
From this day on, the three of them also officially stayed.
After a night of silence, Mars got up early the next morning, bought a lot of wood from the lumber shops in the city, and began to repair it himself.
After a morning's work, the building was completely renewed, and with the addition of daily necessities, it finally had the appearance of home.
At lunchtime, faced with a few simple vegetarian dishes and vegetable soups, the three of them ate with relish.
"Uncle Mars, I want to learn to fight with you, am I okay?" Dante said nervously, his gaze involuntarily falling on the cross sword in the corner.
"Fight?" Mars put down his chopsticks and fell into deep thought.
"Uncle Mars?" called Dante quietly.
"Oh!" Mars chuckled, waking up from his memories before sighing. "Dante, it's hard to imagine a real battle, and I'd rather you live here in peace for the rest of your life. ”
"No, Uncle Mars, I want to be like you! become a powerful knight, and then protect people like me from persecution!" said Dante, slamming his chest to his feet.
Mars was stunned, he saw in the child the divine radiance, and the former self.
"Brother Dante, if you become a knight, will you protect me?" said Catherine with a smile as she held the chopsticks.
"Of course, no one will hurt you as long as I'm here!" Dante said solemnly to Catherine, "Sister Catherine, no one can bully you in the future!"
"Great, great, Daddy, you're not the only one to protect me in the future!" Catherine applauded happily.
Mars was silent for a moment before nodding and smiling, "Okay, Dante, I'll teach you from tomorrow." ”
"I'll do my best!" said Dante.
A red sun rises high in the sky, and the light spreads over the earth, just as the oath of a young man remains unchanged for eternity.
